Payments) or Section 4999 of the Code, or in the event that either
such section of the Code is amended, replaced or supplemented by
other provisions of the Code of similar import ("Successor

responsibilities to the Company or otherwise materially conflict with
any policies which have been promulgated and distributed by the
Company.

       4.  Full Settlement.  The Company's obligations to perform
hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action that the Company
may have against the Executive.  In no event shall the Executive be
obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of
mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the
provisions of this Agreement.  The Company agrees to pay, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the
Executive may incur as a result of any contest by the Company or others
of the validity or the enforceability of, or liability under, any
provision of this Agreement.

       5.  Non-Exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in
any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans, programs, policies or
practices provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and for

otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any stock
option, restricted stock or other agreements with the Company or any of
its subsidiaries except for any benefit, bonus, incentive or right to
which the Executive would be entitled to which are released pursuant to
Section 4 of this Agreement.  Amounts which are vested benefits or
