FMC CORPORATION SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT PLAN

Exhibit 10.5.b

First Amendment

of

FMC Corporation Savings and Investment Plan

(As Amended and Restated Effective as of January 1, 1999)

          WHEREAS, FMC Corporation (the "Company") maintains the FMC Corporation Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan") and administers the Plan
through the FMC Corporation Employee Welfare Benefits Plan Committee (the "Committee"); and

          WHEREAS, the Plan has previously been amended, most recently in the form of an amendment and restatement effective as of January 1, 1999, and the Company
now considers it desirable to amend the Plan further;

          NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of the authority reserved to the Committee by Section 12.1 of the Plan, the Plan is hereby amended effective as of January 1,
1999, except as otherwise noted, as follows:

          1.     By substituting the following for the definition of Break in Service in Article 1 of the Plan:

          "Break in Service means a Period of Separation that lasts for at least 12 consecutive months, provided that, a Period of Separation beginning on
the first date of a maternity or paternity leave of absence and ending on the 12-month anniversary of such date will not constitute a Break in Service. For purposes of this section, a 'maternity or paternity leave of absence' means an absence from work
for any period by reason of (a) the Employee's pregnancy, (b) birth of the Employee's child, (c) placement of a child for adoption with the Employee, or (d) the need to care for such child for a period immediately following the birth or placement with the
Employee."

          2.     By adding the words "incentives for reduction in force," immediately after the words "severance pay;" in the
definition of Compensation in Article I of the Plan.

          3.     By substituting the following for the definition of Highly Compensated Employee in Article 1 of the Plan:

          "Highly Compensated Employee means, effective April 1, 1997, an Employee who:

 
	(a)	     	at any time during the Determination Year or the Look-Back Year owns (or is considered under Code Section 318 to own) more than five percent of the Company or an Affiliate; or

	(b)	     	 had more than $80,000, as adjusted, in Compensation (as defined in Code Section 415(c)(3)) from the Company and the Affiliates during the Look-Back Year.

The 'Determination Year' is the Plan Year for which the determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee is being made, and the 'Look-Back Year' is the 12 month period immediately preceding the Determination Year.

          A former Employee of the Company or an Affiliate is a Highly Compensated Employee for a given Determination Year if he or she separated from service (or was deemed
to have separated) before the Determination Year, performs no services for a Participating Employer during the Determination Year, and was a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year during which he or she separated from service (or was deemed to have
separated) or for any Determination Year ending on or after his or her 55th birthday.

          The Secretary of the Treasury or its delegate will adjust the $80,000 limit from time to time, to reflect increases in the cost of living. Employees who are
nonresident aliens and receive no earned income (within the meaning of Code Section 911(d)(2)) from the Company and its Affiliates that constitutes income from sources within the United States (within the meaning of Code Section 861(a)(3)) are not treated
as Employees for purposes of this definition.

          In determining who was a Highly Compensated Employee for the short Determination Year from April 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997, the Compensation limit was
adjusted to $60,000. In determining who was a Highly Compensated Employee for the 1998 Determination Year, the Look-Back Year was deemed to be the 1997 calendar year."

          4.       By substituting the following for the definition of Hour of Service in Article 1 of the Plan:

          "Hour of Service means each hour for which an Employee is directly or indirectly paid or entitled to payment by the Company or an Affiliate:

          (1)     for the performance of duties; 

          (2)     on account of a period of time during which no duties were performed, provided that Hours of Service will not be credited for
payments made or due under a plan maintained solely for the purpose of complying with applicable workers' compensation, unemployment compensation, or disability insurance laws, or for payments that reimburse an Employee's for medically related expenses; and
 

          (3)     for which back pay, irrespective of mitigation of damages, is awarded or agreed to by the Company, provided that, the same Hours
of Service have not already been credited under (1) or (2) above.

No more than 501 Hours of Service will be credited for any single continuous period of time during which the Employee performed no duties. The determination of Hours of Service for reasons other than the performance of
duties shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Labor Department Regulations Section 2530.200b-2(b), which are incorporated herein by reference, and Hours of Service shall be credited to computation periods in accordance with the
provisions of Labor Department Regulations Section 2530.200b-2(c), which are incorporated herein by reference."

5.     By substituting the following for Section 4.3.1 of the Plan, effective as of July 1, 1997:

          "4.3.1     A Participant forfeits the non-vested portion of his or her Company Contribution and Contingent Accounts on the earlier
of: (a) the date as of which he or she receives a distribution of his or her entire Company Contribution and Contingent Accounts and (b) the date his or her Period of Separation equals five years. The nonvested amount so forfeited is a 'Forfeiture.' If
the Participant incurs a Forfeiture under clause (a) above and his or her Period of Separation is shorter than five years, the Forfeiture is restored, and the Period of Separation counts towards the Participant's Years of Service, along with service
before and after the Period of Separation, in determining the Participant's Years of Service for purposes of Section 4.2. If the Period of Separation is five years or longer, the Forfeiture will not be restored, but the Period of Separation counts towards
the Participant's Years of Service, along with service before and after the Period of Separation, in determining the Participant's Years of Service for purposes of Section 4.2. If a Participant begins a Period of Separation by way of a maternity or
paternity leave, this Section 4.3.1 will be read by substituting the number 'six' for the number 'five' wherever the latter number appears. A 'maternity or paternity leave' is an absence from work because of the Participant's pregnancy, the birth of a
child to or placement of a child for adoption with the Participant, or the need to care for the Participant's child immediately following its birth to or placement with the Participant."

        6.     By amending APPENDIX A Bargaining Units Covered effective as of May 1, 2000 to delete the following references as the Company has no
employees covered under such collective bargaining agreements as of that date as a result of the formation of the Astaris joint venture:

"Phosphorus Chemicals Division, Pocatello, Idaho, International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-C10, Gate City Mechanics, Local 1933; Kemmerer Coke Plant, Kemmerer, Wyoming, District No. 22, United
Mine Workers of America, in behalf of Local Union No. 1316, UMWA; Agricultural Chemicals
Division, Lawrence, Kansas, International Chemical Workers Union, Local 605; and Phosphorus Chemicals Division Carteret, New Jersey, International Chemical Workers Union, Local 144".

          7.     By amending Appendix A Bargaining Units Covered effective as of June 1, 2000 and July 1, 2000, respectively, by adding the
following to the end thereof:

	Agricultural Chemical Group,	 
	Baltimore, Maryland, United	 
	Steel Workers, Local 8-12517	June 1, 2000
	 	 
	Peroxygen Chemicals Division, 	 
	Spring Hill, (formerly Steam Plant), 	 
	South Charleston, West Virginia, 	 
	United Steel Workers, Local	 
	23-12625 	July 1, 2000".

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned member of the Committee has executed the foregoing
amendment on behalf of the Company and the Committee, this 19th
day of September, 2000.

     WHEREAS, Executive and Zenith have decided to settle all matters concerning

<PAGE>

following receipt by Zenith of this signed Agreement and the expiration of all
applicable revocation periods as set forth in Paragraph 6 hereof.

     2.  Zenith shall reimburse Executive for the actual amounts incurred with
respect to the relocation of Executive's family to Sydney, Australia, including
cost of travel and transportation of household goods, provided that all such
requests for reimbursement shall be presented to Zenith by not later than
February 28, 2001 and such amounts, in aggregate, do not exceed $35,000.
Executive shall, to the fullest extent possible, utilize the services of
Zenith's regular relocation service with respect to the transportation of
household goods.  Air travel for Executive and his family shall be reimbursed at
business class rates on reputable regular carriers.

     3.  Executive shall continue to serve as President and Chief Executive
Officer from the date of this Agreement to not later than October 11, 2000 (the
"Interim Period"), and that during the Interim Period, he will perform all of
the normal and usual functions associated with those positions faithfully and
loyally and to the best of his abilities.  Executive agrees that during the
Interim Period he will devote his full business time, attention and effort to
the affairs of Zenith and shall use his reasonable best efforts to promote the
interests of Zenith.  Executive further agrees that he will assist in the smooth

associated with the review of this Agreement, in an amount not to exceed $8,000.

     4.   If at any time during the Interim Period Zenith, in its sole
discretion, shall determine that Executive is not performing to its satisfaction

employment on two (2) days written notice from Zenith to Executive. Such
termination shall not affect Executive's right to receive the payments as set
forth in Paragraphs 1., 2. and 3. hereof, for the full Interim Period.

     5.   Immediately following his separation from Zenith, Executive shall be
entitled to participate in any benefit plans offered by Zenith to other
similarly situated and separated executives, provided that Executive shall be
required to pay all premiums required of separated employees for such continued
participation.

     6.   Executive agrees that during the Interim Period and for a period of
two years thereafter, he will cooperate fully with Zenith and its counsel, both

to events or conduct occurring or claimed to have occurred during the period of
Executive's service with Zenith and the Zenith Released Parties. All assistance
shall be scheduled at such times as are mutually agreeable to the parties and

business affairs. Zenith shall reimburse Executive at an reasonable hourly rate,
comparable to those of other consultants of similar experience and positions, as

against any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities, obligations,
promises, agreements, controversies, or damages, suits, rights, demands, and
causes of action in law or in equity in any way connected with or relating  to
Executive's employment with Zenith and any Zenith Released Parties or any other
benefit, which Executive or any of his heirs, executors, administrators and
assigns ever had, now have or any time hereafter may have, own or hold against
any or all of the Zenith Released Parties, arising or occurring prior to or
coincident with the signing of this Agreement, provided that any such waiver,
release, acquittal, discharge, or any agreement in the Paragraph 6 shall not

<PAGE>

now have or any time hereafter may have, own or hold against any or all of the
Executive Released Parties arising or occurring prior to or concurrent with the
signing of this Agreement provided that any such waiver, release, acquittal,
discharge, or any agreement in this Paragraph 7 shall not apply to any rights
Zenith has under this Agreement. This mutual release by Executive and Zenith
includes, but is not limited to, claims arising under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. (S) 78a et seq., fraud, 42 U.S.C. (S) 1981, the Age

(including, but not limited to, discrimination based on age, sex, attainment of
benefit plan rights, race, religion, national origin, marital status, sexual
orientation, ancestry, harassment, parental status, handicap, disability,

by Executive and Zenith includes, but is not limited to, claims which a party
does not know or suspect to exist in such party's favor at the time of the
execution of this Agreement, which if known by such party, might have affected
such party's decision to enter into this Agreement and includes any and all
claims known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or noncontingent,

malice, or a breach of any duty, law or rule, without regard to the subsequent
discovery or existence of different or additional facts. All released claims
referred to in this paragraph are collectively defined as the "Released Claims".
Each party covenants not to sue the other or any of the Released Parties of such

consulted with an attorney and was given at least twenty one (21) days within
which to consider this Agreement, including the waiver contained herein, before
signing this waiver and Agreement. Executive also acknowledges that he
understands that if he signs this waiver and Agreement, he may revoke the waiver
and the Agreement within seven (7) days of signing. The Agreement and the waiver
contained herein will therefore not be effective until the eighth day after it
is signed by Executive. Nothing herein shall release any party from any
obligation under this Agreement. Excluded from this Agreement and the waiver
contained herein are any claims that cannot be waived by law. Executive agrees
that he is waiving, however, his right to any monetary recovery should the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission or any other agency pursue any claims on his
behalf.

     8.   For a period of six (6) years from the effective date of this
Agreement, Zenith shall schedule Executive as a covered officer or director with
respect to its regular directors and officers liability coverage, if such
coverage is purchased by Zenith on a "claims made basis", or, in the alternative
and at Zenith's sole discretion, Zenith may purchase a separate policy in
amounts and for terms and conditions the same or similar to Zenith's then
current directors and officers liability coverage which policy would
specifically cover Executive for a period ending on a date which is six (6)
years from the effective date of this Agreement.

     9.   For a period of one (1) year from the date this Agreement becomes
effective, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for any reason
whatsoever, induce or solicit any employee of Zenith, or any of its
subsidiaries, to terminate his or her employment relationship with Zenith or any
of its subsidiaries.

     10.  Executive agrees that for a period of one (1) year hereafter,
Executive will not in any manner, directly or indirectly, through any person,
firm, corporation, alone or as a member of any partnership of as an officer,
director, stockholder, investor or employee of or a consultant to any other
corporation or enterprise, engage or be engaged, to assist any such person,
firm, corporation or enterprise in engaging or being engaged, in

                                       6
<PAGE>

any business conducted by Zenith in North America,. The parties agree that the
business of Zenith and its subsidiaries shall be deemed to be the manufacture,
distribution and sales of televisions, video display devices, television set-top
boxes and television or video-related accessories. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Internet sales of products and
services by Executive's future employer shall not be deemed to be a violation of
this Section, unless such sales are specifically targeted at consumers in North
America. Further, Executive agrees that he will not advocate a position, whether
publicly or in private, which seeks the rejection of or which advocates against
the adoption of television broadcasting standards based on Zenith's VSB
technology anywhere in the world, for a period of one (1) year after the
Separation Date.

     11.  Executive acknowledges that in the course of his employment by Zenith
and by LG Electronics Inc. he has had access to proprietary, business sensitive
and confidential information concerning, but not limited to, Zenith's and LG
Electronics Inc. business practices, product plans, marketing, customer lists
and financial information. Executive acknowledges and agrees that such
information was known to be "business confidential" at the time such information
was divulged to him in the course of his employment. For a period of five (5)
years following the date of this Agreement, Executive agrees that he shall
retain such business confidential information in strict confidence, making no
personal or commercial uses of such information nor disclosing such information
to any third party without express written authorization of the Zenith and/or LG
Electronics Inc., as appropriate for the information to be used or disclosed.
The requirement for confidentiality shall not apply to any information which is
now or later becomes publicly known, through no fault or disclosure by Executive
or is (or shall be) required to be disclosed by any law, regulation, or order of
any court or regulatory commission, department or agency.

     12.  Executive and Zenith agree that the terms of this Agreement are
confidential, except that Executive and Zenith may disclose this agreement to
their respective accountants, advisors and legal counsel, and others to the
extent required by applicable law.

concerning the subject matter hereof among the parties and supersedes and
