                               RUSSELL CORPORATION

                             FLEXIBLE DEFERRAL PLAN

         Effective as of the 1st day of January, 2002, Russell Corporation, a
corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Alabama
(the "Controlling Company"), hereby amends and restates the Russell Corporation
Flexible Deferral Plan (the "Plan").

                             BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

         The Controlling Company originally established the Plan effective as of
January 1, 2000. The Controlling Company desires to provide its designated key
management employees (and those of its affiliated and related companies that
participate in the Plan) with an opportunity (i) to defer the receipt and income
taxation of a portion of such employees' annual based salary, commissions and
bonuses; and (ii) to provide such employees with matching contributions with
respect to such deferrals.

         The purpose of the Plan document is to set forth the terms and
conditions pursuant to which these deferrals and contributions may be made and
to describe the nature and extent of the employees' rights to such amounts.

         The Plan constitutes an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation
plan that benefits certain designated employees who are within a select group of
key management or highly compensated employees.

                             STATEMENT OF AGREEMENT

         To amend and restate the Plan described above with the purposes and
goals as hereinabove described, the Controlling Company hereby sets forth the
terms and provisions of the Plan as follows:

a Participating Company determines in good faith prior to a Change in Control
that there is a reasonable likelihood that any Compensation paid to a
Participant for a taxable year of the Participating Company would not be
deductible by the Participating Company solely by reason of the limitation under
Code Section 162(m), then to the extent deemed necessary by the Participating
Company to ensure that the entire amount of any distribution to the Participant
pursuant to this Plan prior to the Change in Control is deductible, the
Participating Company may defer all or any portion of a distribution under this
Plan. Any amounts deferred pursuant to this limitation shall continue to be
credited/debited with additional amounts in accordance with Section 3.8 below,
even if such amount is being paid out in installments. The amounts so deferred
and amounts credited thereon shall be distributed to the Participant or his
Beneficiary (in the event of the Participant's death) at the earliest possible
date, as determined by the Participating Company in good faith, on which the
deductibility of compensation paid or payable to the Participant for the taxable
year of the Participating Company during which distribution is made will not be
limited by Section 162(m), or if earlier, the effective date of a Change in
Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Deduction
Limitation shall not apply to any distributions made after a Change in Control.

         1.19     Deferral Contributions means, for each Plan Year, that portion
of a Participant's Compensation deferred under the Plan pursuant to Section 3.2.

         1.20     Disability means a period of disability during which a

qualified for permanent disability benefits under such a plan had the

                                       3
<PAGE>

Participant been a participant in such a plan, as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrative Committee. If the Participating Company does
not sponsor such a plan, or discontinues sponsorship of such a plan, Disability
shall be determined by the Administrative Committee in its sole discretion.

         1.21     Discretionary Contributions means the amount (if any) credited
to a Participant's Account pursuant to Section 3.6.

beyond the control of the Participant. Financial Hardship will be determined by
the Administrative Committee on the basis of the facts of each case, including
information supplied by the Participant in accordance with uniform guidelines
prescribed from time to time by the Administrative Committee; provided, the
Participant will be deemed not to have a Financial Hardship to the extent that
such hardship is or may be relieved:

otherwise;

                          ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

         2.1      Initial Eligibility Requirements

                  (a)      Deferral Contributions.

                           (1)      As of and after the Effective Date and
         except as provided in subsection (b) hereof, each individual who is an
         Eligible Employee as of the first day of the Plan Year will be eligible
         to participate in the Plan for the entire applicable Plan Year
         (assuming he satisfies the procedures for admission described below);
         provided, however, if an Eligible Employee is initially hired by a
         Participating Company during a Plan Year and has an annual Base Salary
         greater than the amount described in Code Section 414(q)(1)(B)(i), he
         will be eligible to participate in the Plan immediately.

                           (2)      Notwithstanding subsection (a)(1) hereof, a
         Participant will not be permitted to defer under this Plan amounts
         payable to the Participant after the Administrative Committee
         determines, in its sole discretion, that such Participant will no
         longer be permitted to make Deferral Contributions hereunder.

                  (b)      Matching Contributions. A Participant will be
eligible to receive Matching Contributions as soon as administratively feasible
after the 6-month anniversary of the date he first became employed by a
Participating Company, provided he is an Eligible Employee at such time.

                  (c)      New Participating Companies. For employees of
companies that become Participating Companies after the Effective Date, each
Eligible Employee employed by a Participating Company on the date such
Participating Company first becomes a Participating Company will become eligible
to participate in the Plan as of such Participating Company's effective date
under the Plan, if and to the extent that, as of the Participating Company's
effective date, the Eligible Employee has fulfilled the eligibility requirements
set forth in this Section 2.1.

         2.2      Procedure for Admission. Each Eligible Participant will become
a Participant by completing such forms and providing such data in a timely
manner, as are required by the Administrative Committee as a precondition of
participation in the Plan. Such forms and data may include, without limitation,
(i) a Salary Deferral Election, a Bonus Election and/or a Commissions Election;
(ii) the Eligible Participant's acceptance of the terms and conditions of the
Plan; and (iii) the designation of a Beneficiary to receive any death benefits
payable hereunder.

         2.3      Cessation of Eligibility. Unless otherwise designated by the
Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, each Participant who ceases to
be an active employee of a Participating Company will cease to be eligible to
receive any contributions under the Plan as of such date. The Administrative
Committee may remove an employee from active participation in the Plan as of the
first day of the following Plan Year (or any other date specified by the
Administrative Committee), if, as of any day during a Plan Year, he ceases to
satisfy the criteria which qualified him as an Eligible Employee. Even if his
active participation in the Plan ends,

                                       7
<PAGE>

an employee will remain an inactive Participant in the Plan until the earlier of
(i) the date the full amount of his vested Account (if any) is distributed from
the Plan, or (ii) the date he again becomes an Eligible Employee and recommences
active participation in the Plan. During the period of time that an employee is
an inactive Participant in the Plan, his Account will continue to be credited
with earnings as provided for in Section 3.8.

                                  ARTICLE III
                 PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS; DEFERRALS AND CREDITING

         3.1      Participants' Accounts

                  (a)      Establishment of Accounts. The Administrative
Committee will establish and maintain an Account on behalf of each Participant.
To the extent provided herein, each Account will be credited with (i) Deferral
Contributions, (ii) Matching Contributions, (iii) Discretionary Contributions,
and (iv) earnings attributable to such Account, and will be debited by the
amount of all distributions. Each Account of a Participant will be maintained
until the value thereof has been distributed to or on behalf of such Participant
or his Beneficiary.

                  (b)      Nature of Contributions and Accounts. The amounts
credited to a Participant's Account will be represented solely by bookkeeping
entries. Except as provided in Article VII, no monies or other assets will
actually be set aside for such Participant, and all payments to a Participant
under the Plan will be made from the general assets of the Participating
Companies.

                  (c)      Several Liabilities. Each Participating Company will
be severally (and not jointly) liable for the payment of benefits under the Plan
in an amount equal to the total of (i) all undistributed Deferral Contributions
withheld from Participant's Compensation paid or payable by each such
Participating Company, (ii) all undistributed Matching Contributions
attributable to such Deferral Contributions, (iii) all undistributed
Discretionary Contributions credited for the period such Participant was
employed by such Participating Company, and (iv) all investment earnings
attributable to the amounts described in clauses (i)-(iii) hereof. The
Administrative Committee will allocate the total liability to pay benefits under
the Plan among the Participating Companies pursuant to this formula, and the
Administrative Committee's determination will be final and binding.

                  (d)      General Creditors. Any assets which may be acquired
by a Participating Company in anticipation of its obligations under the Plan
will be part of the general assets of such Participating Company. A
Participating Company's obligation to pay benefits under the Plan constitutes a
mere promise of such Participating Company to pay such benefits, and a
Participant or Beneficiary will be and remain no more than an unsecured, general
creditor of such Participating Company.

         3.2      Deferral Contributions.

                  (a)      General Rule. Except as provided in subsections (b)
and (c) hereof, each Eligible Employee who is or becomes eligible to participate
in the Plan for all or any portion of a Plan Year may elect to have Deferral
Contributions made on his behalf for such Plan Year by completing and delivering
to the Administrative Committee (or its designee) a Base Salary Election, Bonus
Election and/or Commissions Election setting forth the terms of his election;
provided, the Administrative Committee may allow or require separate or combined
deferral elections for any or all of the elections set forth in subsections (1),
(2) or (3) hereof.

                           (1)      Base Salary Election. Subject to the terms
         and conditions set forth below, a Base Salary Election will provide for
         the reduction of an Eligible Employee's

                                       9
<PAGE>

         Base Salary payable in each regular paycheck earned during the Plan
         Year for which the Base Salary Election is in effect.

                           (2)      Commissions Election. Subject to the terms
         and conditions set forth below, a Commissions Election will provide for
         the reduction of an Eligible Employee's Commissions payable during the
         Plan Year for which the Commissions Election is in effect.

                           (3)      Bonus Election. Subject to the terms and
         conditions set forth below, a Bonus Election will provide for the
         reduction of an Eligible Employee's Bonus payable during the Plan Year
         for which the Bonus Election is in effect.

                  (b)      Disability. A Participant who is suffering from a
Disability will be deemed to have revoked his Base Salary Election, Bonus
Election and Commissions Election, as applicable, at such time. During the
period of Disability, the Participant shall not be allowed to make any
additional Deferral Contributions but will continue to be considered a
Participant for all other purposes of this Plan.

If a Participant returns to employment after a Disability ceases, the
Participant may make Base Salary and/or Commissions Elections for the Plan Year
following his return to employment or service. For every Plan Year thereafter
while a Participant in the Plan, the Participant may make Base Salary,
Commissions and/or Bonus Elections in accordance with Section 3.3.

                  (c)      Leave of Absence.

                           (1)      Paid Leave of Absence. If a Participant is
         authorized by a Participating Company for any reason to take a paid
         leave of absence from the employment of such Participating Company, the
         Participant shall continue to be considered employed by such
         Participating Company and his Deferral Contributions shall continue to
         be withheld during such paid leave of absence in accordance with
         Section 3.3.

                           (2)      Unpaid Leave of Absence. If a Participant is
         authorized by a Participating Company for any reason to take an unpaid
         leave of absence from the employment of such Participating Company, the
         Participant shall continue to be considered employed by such
         Participating Company and the Participant shall be excused from making
         deferrals until the earlier of the date the leave of absence expires or
         the Participant returns to a paid employment status. Upon such
         expiration of return, deferrals shall resume for the remaining portion
         of the Plan Year in which the expiration or return occurs, based on the
         deferral election, if any, made for the Plan Year. If no election was
         made for that Plan Year, no deferral shall be withheld.

                  (d)      Other Deferrals or Deductions. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the total of (i) the Participant's deferrals under any
Participating Company's Sections 401(k), 125 and 132(f)(4) plans, (ii) the
Participant's Deferral Contributions, and (iii) any other payroll deductions
applicable to such Participant's Compensation exceed 100% of his Compensation,
unless the Controlling Company or Administrative Committee directs otherwise,
the Sections 401(k), 125 and 132(f)(4) plan deferrals will be made first,
followed by any other payroll deductions applicable to such Participant's
Compensation (other than those made under the

                                       10
<PAGE>

Plan), and then the remaining Compensation will be deferred under the Plan
subject to Section 3.3.

         3.3      Procedure for Elections. Subject to any modifications,
additions or exceptions that the Administrative Committee, in its sole
discretion, deems necessary, appropriate or helpful, the following terms will
apply to Base Salary, Bonus and Commissions Elections:

                  (a)      Base Salary and Commissions Elections.

                           (1)      Effective Date.

                                    (A)      Initial Base Salary and Commissions
                  Elections. A Participant's initial Base Salary and/or
                  Commissions Elections with respect to his Compensation for any
                  Plan Year will be effective for the first regular paycheck
                  paid after the date the Base Salary Election and/or Commission
                  Election is submitted and becomes effective. To be effective,
                  a Participant's initial Base Salary Election and/or
                  Commissions Election must be made within the time period
                  prescribed by the Administrative Committee (generally, before
                  the first day of the Plan Year for which Base Salary Deferral
                  Contributions and/or Commissions Deferral Contributions will
                  be made, or, if later, within 30 days after the date on which
                  his participation becomes effective pursuant to Plan Section
                  2.1). If an Eligible Employee fails to submit a Base Salary
                  Election and/or Commissions Election in a timely manner, he
                  will be deemed to have elected not to participate in the Plan
                  for that Plan Year with respect to his Base Salary and/or
                  Commissions.

                                    (B)      Subsequent Base Salary and
                  Commissions Elections. A Participant's subsequent Base Salary
                  Election and/or Commission Election with respect to his Base
                  Salary and/or Commissions for any Plan Year must be made on or
                  before the last day of the Plan Year immediately preceding the
                  Plan Year for which he desires to participate and in which
                  such Compensation to be deferred is paid.

                           (2)      Term. Each Participant's Base Salary
         Election and/or Commissions Election will remain in effect for all such
         Base Salary and/or Commissions paid during the current and all future
         Plan Years until the earliest of (i) the date the Participant ceases to
         be an Active Participant for such Plan Year, (ii) the date the
         Participant makes a subsequent Base Salary Election and/or Commissions
         Election or revokes such Base Salary Election and/or Commissions
         Election, or (iii) the date as of which his Participating Company or
         the Administrative Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that
         such Participant's Base Salary Deferral Contributions and/or
         Commissions Deferral Contributions will cease. If a Participant is
         transferred from the employment of one Participating Company to the
         employment of another Participating Company, his Base Salary Election
         and/or Commissions Election with the first Participating Company will
         remain in effect and will apply to his Base Salary and/or Commissions
         from the second Participating Company until the earliest of those
         events set forth in the preceding sentence.

                                       11
<PAGE>

                           (3)      Amount. A Participant may elect to defer his
         Base Salary and/or Commissions payable in each regular paycheck, up to
         the maximum percentage and/or amount established by the Administrative
         Committee from time-to-time with respect to the Participant.

                           (4)      Revocation. A Participant may revoke his
         Base Salary Election and/or Commissions Election by delivering a
         written, electronic or other form of notice of revocation to the
         Administrative Committee, and such revocation will be effective as soon
         as practicable after the date on which it is received by the
         Administrative Committee. A Participant who revokes a Base Salary
         Election and/or Commissions Election may enter into a new Base Salary
         Election and/or Commissions Election with respect to his Base Salary
         and or Commissions for any subsequent Plan Year by making such Base
         Salary Election and/or Commissions Election on or before the last day
         of the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year for which he
         desires to participate and in which the Base Salary and/or Commissions
         to be deferred is paid.

                  (b)      Bonus Election. An Eligible Employee may complete and
deliver to the Administrative Committee a Bonus Election with respect to Bonus
payments payable during the immediately following Plan Year. The terms of such
Bonus Election will be determined by reference to the foregoing subsection (a)
of this Section; provided, the following modifications will apply:

                           (1)      Effective. An Eligible Employee's Bonus
         Election will be effective for the Bonus payable during the Plan Year
         that commences immediately following the date such election is
         delivered to the Administrative Committee. The Eligible Employee will
         deliver the election to the Administrative Committee on or before the
         last day of the Plan Year immediately preceding the Plan Year during
         which the Bonus is payable.

                           (2)      Modification. Such election will remain in
         effect from year to year in accordance with its original terms until
         the Eligible Employee either makes a subsequent election, or revokes
         his Bonus Election; provided, any such election or revocation may be
         effective only as to any such amounts to be paid in a subsequent Plan
         Year.

                           (3)      Amount. An Eligible Employee may elect to
         reduce his Bonus up to the maximum percentage and/or amount established
         by the Administrative Committee from time-to-time with respect to the
         Participant.

         3.4      Crediting Deferral Contributions. For each Plan Year that a
Participant has a Base Salary Election, Bonus Election or Commissions Election
in effect, the Administrative Committee will credit the amount of such
Participant's Deferral Contributions to his Account on, or as soon as
practicable after, the Valuation Date on which such amount would have been paid
to him but for his election hereunder.

         3.5      Matching Contribution. As soon as administratively feasible
following the end of each payroll period (or such other date or time as the
Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, determines from time-to-time),
the Administrative Committee will credit to each Eligible Employee's Account for
each payroll period a Matching Contribution equal to 25% of the amount of such
Base Salary Deferrals; provided, the total amount of the Matching Contributions
which a Participating Company shall make for any Active Participant for any
month shall not exceed 1% of such Active Participant's Base Salary for such
month (that is, the 25% Matching Contribution will not be applied to the amount
of a Base Salary Deferral Contribution that exceeds 4% of such Participant's
Base Salary).

         3.6      Discretionary Contributions. At such time or times, in such
amount and under such terms, as a Participating Company (by separate agreement)
or the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine, the
Administrative Committee may, but will not be required to, credit to the Account
of any Eligible Employee a Discretionary Contribution. Any such contribution may
be credited to any one or more of such Eligible Employee's subaccounts (for
example, his subaccount credited with Deferral Contributions, Matching
Contributions or any other subaccount established for such Eligible Employee),
and such contribution will take on the characteristics (such as the vesting
schedule(s)) applicable to other funds in such subaccount(s). To the extent any
special characteristics are to apply to any Discretionary Contributions, the
Administrative Committee will specify these on an exhibit to the Plan.

         3.7      Debiting Distributions. As of each Valuation Date, the
Administrative Committee will debit each Participant's Account for any amount
distributed from such Account since the immediately preceding Valuation Date.

         3.8      Crediting Earnings. As of each Valuation Date, the
Administrative Committee will credit to each Participant's Account the amount of
earnings and/or losses applicable thereto for the period since the immediately
preceding Valuation Date. Such crediting of earnings and/or losses will be
effected as of each Valuation Date, as follows:

                  (a)      Rate of Return. The Administrative Committee will
first determine a rate of return for the period since the immediately preceding
Valuation Date for each of the Investment Funds;

                  (b)      Amount Invested. The Administrative Committee next
will determine the amount of (i) each Participant's Account that was deemed
invested in each Investment Fund as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date;
minus (ii) the amount of any distributions debited from the amount determined in
clause (i) since the immediately preceding Valuation Date; and

                                       13
<PAGE>

                  (c)      Determination of Amount. The Administrative Committee
will then apply the rate of return for each Investment Fund for such Valuation
Date (as determined in subsection (a) hereof) to the amount of the Participant's
Account deemed invested in such Investment Fund for such Valuation Date (as
determined in subsection (b) hereof), and the total amount of earnings and/or
losses resulting therefrom will be credited to such Participant's Account as of
the applicable Valuation Date.

         3.9      Value of Account. The value of a Participant's Account as of
any date will be equal to the aggregate value of all contributions and all
investment earnings deemed credited to his Account as of such date, determined
in accordance with this Article III.

         3.10     Vesting.

                  (a)      Deferral Contributions. A Participant will at all
times be fully vested in his Deferral Contributions and the earnings credited to
his Account with respect to such Deferral Contributions.

                  (b)      Matching Contributions. Except as provided in
subsection (c), any Matching Contributions credited to a Participant's Account
(and the earnings credited with respect thereto) will vest in accordance with
the following schedule:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
               YEARS OF SERVICE                         VESTED PERCENTAGE

</TABLE>

                  (c)      Vesting Upon Age 65. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section, a Participant's Matching Contributions credited to his
Account and investment earnings attributable thereto will become 100% vested and
nonforfeitable upon the Participant's attainment of age 65 while still an
employee of the Controlling Company or any Affiliate.

         3.11     Notice to Participants of Account Balances. At least once for
each Plan Year, the Administrative Committee will cause a written statement of a
Participant's Account balance to be distributed to the Participant.

         3.12     Good Faith Valuation Binding. In determining the value of the
Accounts, the Administrative Committee will exercise its best judgment, and all
such determinations of value (in the absence of bad faith) will be binding upon
all Participants and their Beneficiaries.

         3.13     Errors and Omissions in Accounts. If an error or omission is
discovered in the Account of a Participant or in the amount of a Participant's
deferrals, the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, will cause
appropriate, equitable adjustments to be made as soon as administratively
practicable following the discovery of such error or omission.

                                INVESTMENT FUNDS

         4.1      Selection by Administrative Committee. From time to time, the
Administrative Committee will select two or more Investment Funds for purposes
of determining the rate of return on amounts deemed invested in accordance with
the terms of the Plan. The Administrative Committee may change, add or remove
Investment Funds on a prospective basis at anytime(s) and in any manner it deems
appropriate.

         4.2      Participant Direction of Deemed Investments. Each Participant
generally may direct the manner in which his Account will be deemed invested in
and among the Investment Funds. Any Participant investment directions permitted
hereunder will be made in accordance with the following terms:

                  (a)      Nature of Participant Direction. The selection of
Investment Funds by a Participant will be for the sole purpose of determining
the rate of return to be credited to his Account, and will not be treated or
interpreted in any manner whatsoever as a requirement or direction to actually
invest assets in any Investment Fund or any other investment media. The Plan, as
an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan, at no time will have any
actual investment of assets relative to the benefits or Accounts hereunder.

                  (b)      Investment of Account. Each Participant may make an
Investment Election prescribing the percentage of his Account that will be
deemed invested in each Investment Fund. An initial Investment Election of a
Participant will be made as of the date the Participant commences participation
in the Plan and will apply to all contributions credited to such Participant's
Account after such date. Such Participant may make subsequent Investment
Elections as of any business day, and each such election will apply to such
Participant's Account on the first day of the calendar month after the
Administrative Committee (or its designee) has a reasonable opportunity to
process such election pursuant to such procedures as the Administrative
Committee may determine from time-to-time. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, each Investment Election made on or after January 1, 2003 will apply
to a Participant's Account on the next business day after the Administrative
Committee (or its designee) has a reasonable opportunity to process such
election pursuant to such procedures as the Administrative Committee may
determine from time-to-time. Any Investment Election made pursuant to this
subsection will remain effective until changed by the Participant.

                  (c)      Administrative Committee Discretion. The
Administrative Committee will have complete discretion to adopt and revise
procedures to be followed in making such Investment Elections. Such procedures
may include, but are not limited to, the process of making elections, the
permitted frequency of making elections, the incremental size of elections, the
deadline for making elections and the effective date of such elections. Any
procedures adopted by the Administrative Committee that are inconsistent with
the deadlines or procedures specified in this Section will supersede such
provisions of this Section without the necessity of a Plan amendment.

                           PAYMENT OF ACCOUNT BALANCES

         5.1      Benefit Payments Upon Retirement.

                  (a)      General Rule Concerning Benefit Payments. In
accordance with the terms of subsection (b) hereof, if a Participant Retires, he
(or his Beneficiary, if he dies after his Retirement but before distribution of
his entire Account) will be entitled to receive or begin receiving a
distribution of the total of (i) the entire vested amount credited to his
Account, determined as of the Valuation Date on which such distribution is
processed; plus (ii) the vested amount of Deferral, Matching and Discretionary
Contributions made since such Valuation Date. For purposes of this subsection,
the "Valuation Date on which such distribution is processed" refers to the
Valuation Date established for such purpose by administrative practice, even if
actual payment is made or commenced at a later date due to delays in valuation,
administration or any other procedure. Any payment under this Section will be
subject to the Deduction Limitation.

                  (b)      Timing and Form of Distribution.

                           (1)      Election by Participant. A Participant, in
         connection with his commencement of participation in the Plan, may
         elect to receive his Account upon Retirement in a lump sum or
         installments. The Participant may annually change his election to an
         allowable alternative payout period by submitting a new election form
         to the Administrative Committee, provided that any such election form
         is submitted at least 1 year prior to the Participant's Retirement and
         is accepted by the Administrative Committee in its sole discretion. The
         election form most recently accepted by the Administrative Committee at
         least 1 year prior to the Participant's Retirement shall govern the
         payout of his Account. If a Participant does not make any election with
         respect to the payment of his Account upon Retirement, then such
         benefit shall be payable in a lump sum.

                                    (A)      Lump-Sum Payment. If the benefit
                  payable to a Participant under this Section will be
                  distributed in the form of a lump-sum payment, such lump sum
                  payment will be made within 60 days after the Participant
                  Retires.

                                    (B)      Installments. If a Participant
                  elects under this Section to have his Account balance paid in
                  the form of annual or quarterly installment payments, the
                  following terms and conditions will apply:

                                             (i)      Length of Installment
                                    Payments. The installment payments will be
                                    made in substantially equal annual or
                                    quarterly installments (as elected by the
                                    Participant) over 5, 10, 15, 20 years, as
                                    elected by the Participant.

                                             (ii)     Calculation of Payments.
                                    The Participant's Account will be amortized
                                    annually over the total number of years that
                                    he is to receive installment payments, using
                                    a beginning of the year payment convention,
                                    equal payments and an interest rate that is
                                    equal to the Prime

                                       16

                                    Rate on the last business day of the
                                    calendar year preceding the month in which
                                    the Participant Retired. The resulting
                                    payment shall be paid starting on the first
                                    day of the month that follows, by at least
                                    30 days, the Participant's Retirement and
                                    will be paid on the annual or quarterly
                                    anniversary, as applicable, of that date for
                                    the remainder of the payment period. If the
                                    amount of each of the Participant's annual
                                    payments will be less than $3,000, his
                                    Account will be payable in a lump sum
                                    instead.

                                    If the Participant elects to receive
                                    quarterly installment payments, the amount
                                    of his payments will be recalculated each
                                    year as of the first business day of the
                                    month in which the anniversary of his
                                    Retirement occurs. The recalculation will be
                                    over the remaining portion of his payment
                                    period using the Prime Rate on the last
                                    business day of the calendar year preceding
                                    the date of the recalculation. If the amount
                                    of each of the Participant's quarterly
                                    payments will be less than $750, his Account
                                    will be payable in a lump sum instead.

                                             (iii)    Payments Following Death.
                                    If a Participant dies after payment of his
                                    benefit from the Plan has begun, but before
                                    his entire benefit has been distributed, the
                                    remaining installment payments will be
                                    distributed to the Participant's designated
                                    Beneficiary or, if the Beneficiary so
                                    elects, the remaining amount of his Account
                                    balance will distributed in the form of a
                                    single-sum payment.

         5.2      Benefit Payments Upon Termination of Employment. If a
Participant has a Termination of Employment prior to his Retirement, death or
Disability, he (or his Beneficiary, if he dies after such Termination of
Employment but before distribution of his Account) will be entitled to receive a
lump sum distribution of the total of (i) the entire vested amount credited to
his Account, determined as of the Valuation Date on which such distribution is
processed; plus (ii) the vested amount of Deferral, Matching and Discretionary
Contributions made since such Valuation Date. For purposes of this subsection,
the "Valuation Date on which such distribution is processed" refers to the
Valuation Date established for such purpose by administrative practice, even if
actual payment is made at a later date due to delays in valuation,
administration or any other procedure. Any payment under this Section will be
subject to the Deduction Limitation.

         5.3      Benefit Payments Upon Death.

                  (a)      General Rule Concerning Benefit Payments. If a
Participant dies before he Retires, has a Termination of Employment or suffers a
Disability, his Beneficiary will be entitled to receive a distribution of the
total of (i) the entire vested amount credited to his Account, determined as of
the Valuation Date on which such distribution is processed; plus (ii) the vested
amount of Deferral, Matching and Discretionary Contributions made since such
Valuation Date. For purposes of this subsection, the "Valuation Date on which
such distribution is processed" refers to the Valuation Date established for
such purpose by administrative practice, even if actual payment is commenced or
made at a later date due to delays in valuation, administration or any other
procedure.

                                       17
<PAGE>

                  (b)      Timing and Form of Distribution. A Participant, in
connection with his commencement of participation in the Plan, may elect for his
Beneficiary to receive his Account upon his death in a lump sum or installments.
If a Participant does not make any election with respect to the payment of his
Account upon his death, then such benefit shall be paid in a lump sum. A lump
sum payment shall be made within 60 days after the date on which the
Administrative Committee is provided with proof that is satisfactory to the
Administrative Committee of the Participant's death. Installment payments shall
be made in accordance with Section 5.1, subject to the receipt of proof of death
described in the proceeding sentence. Any payment made shall be subject to the
Deduction Limitation. The Participant may annually change this election to an
allowable alternative payout period by submitting a new election form to the
Administrative Committee, which form must be accepted by the Administrative
Committee in its sole discretion. The election form most recently accepted by
the Administrative Committee prior to the Participant's death shall govern the
payout of the Participant's Account. Despite the foregoing, if the Participant's
Account at the time of his death is less than $25,000, payment of the Account to
the Beneficiary may be made, in the sole discretion of the Administrative
Committee, in the lump sum or in annual installments of not more than 5 years.

         5.4      Benefit Payments Upon Disability. A Participant suffering a
Disability will, for benefit purposes under this Plan, continue to be considered
to be employed and will be eligible for the benefits provided for in this
Article 5 in accordance with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the above,
the Administrative Committee will have the right, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to deem such Participant to have either experienced a Termination of
Employment (in the case of a Participant who does not qualify for Retirement) or
to have Retired (in the case of a Participant who qualified for Retirement), at
any time after such Participant is determined to be suffering a Disability, in
which case the Participant shall receive a benefit equal to his Account at the
time of the Administrative Committee's determination. In the case of a disabled
Participant who is deemed to have experienced a Termination of Employment, the
benefit shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days of the Administrative
Committee's exercise of such right. In the case of a disabled Participant who is
deemed to have Retired, the benefit shall be paid in accordance with Section
5.1. Any payment made shall be subject to the Deduction Limitation.

         5.5      Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 5
or any election made by the Participant to the contrary, any Participant who is
deemed involved with a Change in Control (as described in Section 1.12) will
receive a full distribution of the benefit (or the remainder thereof) payable
under Section 5.2 in the form of a single-sum payment. Unless the customary
rules and elections under the Plan would provide for an earlier distribution
date, such payment will be made as soon as administratively feasible after the
date such Change in Control occurs.

         5.6      Form of Assets. All distributions will be made in the form of
cash in U.S. dollars.

         5.7      Withdrawals.

                  (a)      Hardship Withdrawals. Upon receipt of (i) an
application for a hardship withdrawal from a Participant who has not yet
received distribution of his entire Account and

                                       18
<PAGE>

(ii) the Administrative Committee's decision, made in its sole discretion, that
a Participant has suffered a Financial Hardship, the Administrative Committee
will cause the Controlling Company to pay a distribution to such Participant.
Such distribution will be paid in a single-sum payment, in cash as prescribed in
Section 5.6, as soon as administratively feasible after the Administrative
Committee determines that the Participant has incurred a Financial Hardship. The
amount of such single-sum payment will be limited to the vested amount of the
Participant's Account that is reasonably necessary to meet the Participant's
requirements resulting from the Financial Hardship. The amount of such
distribution will reduce the Participant's Account balance as provided in
Section 3.7. In addition, the Participant receiving such distribution will
immediately cease to make Deferral Contributions and will not be eligible to
resume Deferral Contributions until the first day of the Plan Year beginning
after the date of the distribution. A hardship withdrawal is not subject to the
Deduction Limitation.

                  (b)      Withdrawals with Forfeiture. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Article V to the contrary, a Participant may elect, at
any time prior to the distribution of his entire Account, to withdraw the total
of (i) the remaining vested amount credited to his Account, determined as of the
Valuation Date on which such distribution is processed; plus (ii) the vested
amount of Deferral, Matching and Discretionary Contributions made since such
Valuation Date. Such distribution will be made in the form of a single-sum
payment in cash, as prescribed in Section 5.2, as soon as administratively
feasible after the date of the Participant's election under this subsection (b).
At the time such distribution is made, an amount equal to 10% of the amount
distributed will be permanently and irrevocably forfeited (and, if the
distribution request is more than 90% of such Participant's Account, the
forfeiture amount will be deducted from his distribution amount to the extent
there otherwise will be an insufficient remaining Account balance from which to
deduct this forfeiture). In addition, the Participant receiving such
distribution will immediately cease to make Deferral Contributions and will not
be eligible to resume Deferral Contributions until the first day of the Plan
Year immediately following the one-year anniversary of such distribution. A
withdrawal under this subsection will not be subject to the Deduction
Limitation.

         5.8      Beneficiary Designation.

                  (a)      General. Participants will designate and from time to
time may redesignate their Beneficiaries in such form and manner as the
Administrative Committee may determine. Upon the acceptance by the
Administrative Committee of a new Beneficiary designation form, all Beneficiary
designations previously filed will be come void. The Administrative Committee
will be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary designation form filed by the
Participant and accepted by the Administrative Committee prior to his death. No
designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be effective until
received and acknowledged in writing by the Administrative Committee or its
designated agent.

                  (b)      No Designation or Designee Dead or Missing. In the
event:

                           (1)      a Participant dies without designating a
         Beneficiary;

                                       19
<PAGE>

                           (2)      the Beneficiary designated by a Participant
         is not surviving when a payment is to be made to such person under the
         Plan, and no contingent Beneficiary has been designated; or

                           (3)      the Beneficiary designated by a Participant
         cannot be located by the Administrative Committee within 1 year from
         the date benefits are to be paid to such person;

then, in any of such events, the Beneficiary of such Participant with respect to
any benefits that remain payable under the Plan will be the Participant's
Surviving Spouse, if any, and if not, the estate of the Participant.

                  (c)      Doubt as to Beneficiary. If the Administrative
Committee has any doubt as to the proper Beneficiary to receive payments
pursuant to the Plan, the Administrative Committee shall have the right,
exercisable in its discretion, to cause the Participating Companies to withhold
such payments until this matter is resolved to the Administrative Committee's
satisfaction.

                  (d)      Discharge of Obligations. The payment of benefits
under the Plan to a Beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge all
Participating Companies and Affiliates and the Administrative Committee from all
further obligations under this Plan with respect to the Participant, and the
Participant's Plan Agreement shall terminate upon such full payment of benefits.

         5.9      Offset for Obligations to the Company. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if a Participant or Beneficiary has any
outstanding obligation to any Affiliate (whether or not such obligation is
related to the Plan), the Administrative Committee may cause the Account balance
of such Participant or Beneficiary to be reduced and offset by, and to be
applied to satisfy, the amount of such obligation.

         5.10     Taxes. If the whole or any part of any Participant's or
Beneficiary's benefit hereunder will become subject to any estate, inheritance,
income, employment or other tax which the Participating Company will be required
to pay or withhold, the Participating Company will have the full power and
authority to withhold and pay such tax out of any monies or other property in
its hand for the account of the Participant or Beneficiary whose interests
hereunder are so affected (including, without limitation, by reducing and
offsetting the Participant's or Beneficiary's Account balance or by reducing the
amount of the Participant's Deferral Contributions). Prior to making any
payment, the Participating Company may require such releases or other documents
from any lawful taxing authority as it will deem necessary.

                                     CLAIMS

         6.1      Initial Claim. Claims for benefits under the Plan may be filed
with the Administrative Committee on forms or in such other written documents,
as the Administrative Committee may prescribe. If such a claim relates to the
contents of a notice received by the claimant, the claim must be made within 60
days after such notice was received by the claimant. All other claims must be
made within 180 days of the date on which the event that caused the claim to
arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the determination
desired by the claimant. The Administrative Committee will furnish to the
claimant written notice of the disposition of a claim within a reasonable time
after the application therefor is filed. In the event the claim is denied, the
notice of the disposition of the claim will provide the specific reasons for the
denial, citations of the pertinent provisions of the Plan, and, where
appropriate, an explanation as to how the claimant can perfect the claim and/or
submit the claim for review.

         6.2      Appeal. Any Participant or Beneficiary who has been denied a
benefit will be entitled, upon request to the Administrative Committee, to
appeal the denial of his claim. The request for review, together with written
statement of the claimant's position, must be filed with the Administrative
Committee no later than 60 days after receipt of the written notification of
denial of a claim provided for in Section 6.1. During the 30-day period
beginning on the date the claimant's appeal was filed, the claimant (or his duly
authorized representative) may review pertinent documents related to the Plan in
the Administrative Committee's possession in order to prepare the appeal, may
submit written comments or other documents to the Administrative Committee or
may request a hearing which the Administrative Committee, in its sole
discretion, may determine to grant. The Administrative Committee's decision will
be made within 60 days following the filing of the request for review, unless a
hearing is held or other special circumstances require additional time, in which
case the Administrative Committee will notify the claimant. If unfavorable, the
notice of the decision will explain the reasons for denial and indicate the
provisions of the Plan or other documents used to arrive at the decision.

         6.3      Satisfaction of Claims. Any payment to a Participant or
Beneficiary will to the extent thereof be in full satisfaction of all claims
hereunder against the Administrative Committee and the Participating Companies,
any of whom may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition to such
payment, to execute a receipt and release therefor in such form as will be
determined by the Administrative Committee or the Participating Companies. If
receipt and release is required but the Participant or Beneficiary (as
applicable) does not provide such receipt and release in a timely enough manner
to permit a timely distribution in accordance with the general timing of
distribution provisions in the Plan, the payment of any affected distribution
may be delayed until the Administrative Committee or the Participating Companies
receive a proper receipt and release.

                                  ARTICLE VII
                             SOURCE OF FUNDS; TRUST

         7.1      Source of Funds. Except as provided in this Section and
Section 7.2 (relating to the Trust), each Participating Company will provide the
benefits described in the Plan from its general assets. However, to the extent
that funds in such Trust allocable to the benefits payable under the Plan are
sufficient, the Trust assets may be used to pay benefits under the Plan. If such
Trust assets are not sufficient to pay all benefits due under the Plan, then the
appropriate Participating Company will have the obligation, and the Participant
or Beneficiary, who is due such benefits, will look to such Participating
Company to provide such benefits.

         7.2      Trust.

                  (a)      Establishment. To the extent determined by the
Controlling Company, the Participating Companies will transfer the funds
necessary to fund benefits accrued hereunder to the Trustee to be held and
administered by the Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement. Except
as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement, each transfer into the Trust Fund
will be irrevocable as long as a Participating Company has any liability or
obligations under the Plan to pay benefits, such that the Trust property is in
no way subject to use by the Participating Company; provided, it is the intent
of the Controlling Company that the assets held by the Trust are and will remain
at all times subject to the claims of the general creditors of the Participating
Companies.

                  (b)      Distributions. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the
Trustee will make payments to Plan Participants and Beneficiaries in accordance
with a payment schedule provided by the Participating Company. The Participating
Company will make provisions for the reporting and withholding of any federal,
state or local taxes that may be required to be withheld with respect to the
payment of benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plan and will pay amounts
withheld to the appropriate taxing authorities or determine that such amounts
have been reported, withheld and paid by the Participating Company.

                  (c)      Status of the Trust. No Participant or Beneficiary
will have any interest in the assets held by the Trust or in the general assets
of the Participating Companies other than as a general, unsecured creditor.
Accordingly, a Participating Company will not grant a security interest in the
assets held by the Trust in favor of the Participants, Beneficiaries or any
creditor.

                  (d)      Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this
Article VII to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control, each of the
Participating Companies with obligations to Participants (or their
Beneficiaries) who are deemed involved with such Change in Control will
immediately transfer to the Trustee an amount equal to the aggregate of all
benefit amounts (determined by the Administrative Committee, in its sole
discretion, as of the Valuation Date as of which the Change in Control occurs)
of all such Participants and Beneficiaries for which such Participating Company
is liable for payment in accordance with the terms of Section 3.1(c). The funds
so transferred will be held and administered by the Trustee pursuant to the
terms of the Trust Agreement and foregoing provisions of this Section.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                            ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE

         8.1      Appointment of Administrative Committee.

                  (a)      Administrative Committee. As of the Effective Date,
the Administrative Committee will consist of such members who were members of
said committee immediately before the Effective Date. The Controlling Company
will have the right to remove any member of such committee at any time. A member
may resign at any time by written resignation delivered to the remaining members
of the Administrative Committee (if any), and if none, to the Board. If a
vacancy in the Administrative Committee should occur, a successor may be
appointed by the Controlling Company, and the Controlling Company may appoint
additional committee members. If at any time there are no remaining, named
members of the Administrative Committee, the general counsel of the Controlling
Company will serve as the sole member of said committee.

                  (b)      Appointments by Controlling Company. The appointment
and removal authority and responsibilities assigned to the Controlling Company
in this Section, Section 8.4(a) and Section 9.1 may be exercised at any time by
either the Board or the individual(s) who are serving as member(s) of the
Administrative Committee at such time; provided, if there is any dispute over
any appointment or removal of a committee member, the Board will act to resolve
such dispute. In making such appointments and removals, the Administrative
Committee members will be acting on behalf of the Controlling Company and not in
their capacity as plan fiduciaries.

         8.2      Administration Generally. The Plan will be administered by the
Administrative Committee. The Administrative Committee may establish such
policies and procedures as it deems helpful with respect to the operation and
administration of the Plan.

         8.3      Organization of Administrative Committee. The Administrative
Committee may elect a Chairman and a Secretary from among its members. In
addition to those powers set forth elsewhere in the Plan, the Administrative
Committee, by formal action or through its practices, may appoint such agents,
who need not be members of such Administrative Committee, as it may deem
necessary for the effective performance of its duties and may delegate to such
agents such powers and duties, whether ministerial or discretionary, as the
Administrative Committee may deem expedient or appropriate. The compensation of
such agents who are not full-time employees of a Participating Company will be
fixed by the Administrative Committee within limits set by the Board and will be
paid by the Controlling Company (to be divided equitably among the Participating
Companies) or from the Trust as determined by the Administrative Committee. The
Administrative Committee will act by majority vote. Any individual serving on
the Administrative Committee who is a Participant shall not vote or act on any
matter relating solely to himself. The Administrative Committee members will
serve as such without compensation.

         8.4      Powers and Responsibility of Administrative Committee. The
Administrative Committee will have complete control of the administration of the
Plan hereunder, with all powers necessary to accomplish that purpose, including
(but not limited to) the following:

                                       23
<PAGE>

                  (a)      to appoint and remove members of the Administrative
Committee;

                  (b)      to appoint a Trustee hereunder;

                  (c)      to construe the Plan and to determine all questions
that will arise thereunder;

                  (d)      to have all powers elsewhere herein conferred upon
it;

                  (e)      to decide all questions relating to the eligibility
of employees to participate in the benefits of the Plan;

                  (f)      to determine the benefits of the Plan to which any
Participant or Beneficiary may be entitled;

                  (g)      to maintain and retain records relating to
Participants and Beneficiaries;

                  (h)      to prepare and furnish to Participants all
information required under federal law or provisions of the Plan to be furnished
to them;

                  (i)      to provide directions to the Trustee with respect to
methods of benefit payment, and all other matters where called for in the Plan
or requested by the Trustee;

                  (j)      to engage assistants and professional advisers;

                  (k)      to provide procedures for determination of claims for
benefits;

                  (l)      to amend the Plan at any time and from time to time
as provided for in Section 9.1; and

                  (m)      to delegate any recordkeeping or other administerial
duties hereunder to any other person or third-party;

all as further set forth herein.

         8.5      Records of Committee.

                  (a)      Notices and Directions. Any notice, direction, order,
request, certification or instruction of the Administrative Committee to the
Trustee will be in writing signed by a member of the Administrative Committee
(or such other media or format to which the Administrative Committee and Trustee
may agree). The Trustee and every other person will be entitled to rely
conclusively upon any and all such proper notices, directions, orders, requests,
certifications and instructions received from the Administrative Committee and
reasonably believed to be properly executed, and will act and be fully protected
in acting in accordance with any such directions that are proper.

                  (b)      Records of Administrative Committee. All acts and
determinations of the Administrative Committee will be duly recorded by its
Secretary or under his supervision, and

                                       24
<PAGE>

all such records, together with such other documents as may be necessary for the
administration of the Plan, will be preserved in the custody of such Secretary.

         8.6      Construction of Plan. The Administrative Committee will take
such steps as are considered necessary and appropriate to remedy any inequity
that results from incorrect information received or communicated in good faith
or as the consequence of an administrative error. The Administrative Committee,
in its sole and full discretion, will interpret the Plan and will determine the
questions arising in the administration, interpretation and application of the
Plan. The Administrative Committee will endeavor to act, whether by general
rules or by particular decisions, to treat all similarly-situations Participants
uniformly, unless it otherwise deems necessary. The Administrative Committee
will correct any defect, reconcile any inconsistency or supply any omission with
respect to the Plan.

         8.7      Direction of Trustee. The Administrative Committee will have
the power to provide the Trustee with general investment policy guidelines and
directions to assist the Trustee respecting investments made in compliance with,
and pursuant to, the terms of the Plan.

         8.8      Indemnification. The Administrative Committee and each member
of the Administrative Committee will be indemnified by the Participating
Companies against judgment amounts, settlement amounts (other than amounts paid
in settlement to which the Participating Companies do not consent) and expenses,
reasonably incurred by the Administrative Committee or him in connection with
any action to which the Administrative Committee or he may be a party (by reason
of his service as a member of a Administrative Committee) except in relation to
matters as to which the Administrative Committee or he will be adjudged in such
action to be personally guilty of gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of its or his duties. The foregoing right to indemnification will be
in addition to such other rights as Administrative Committee or each
Administrative Committee member may enjoy as a matter of law or by reason of
insurance coverage of any kind. Rights granted hereunder will be in addition to
and not in lieu of any rights to indemnification to which Administrative
Committee or each Administrative Committee member may be entitled pursuant to
the by-laws or other organizational rules of the Controlling Company. Service on
the Administrative Committee will be deemed in partial fulfillment of an
Administrative Committee member's function as an employee or officer of the
Controlling Company or any Participating Company, if he serves in such other
capacity as well.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

         9.1      Amendments. The Administrative Committee and/or the Board will
have the right, in their sole discretion, to amend the Plan in whole or in part
at any time and from time to time. Any amendment will be in writing and executed
by a duly authorized member of the Administrative Committee. An amendment to the
Plan may modify its terms in any respect whatsoever, and may include, without
limitation, a permanent or temporary freezing of the Plan such that the Plan
will remain in effect with respect to existing Account balances without
permitting any new contributions; provided, no such action may reduce the amount
already credited to a Participant's Account without the affected Participant's
written consent. All Participants and Beneficiaries will be bound by such
amendment. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, if a
Participant's Plan Agreement contains benefits or limitations that are not in
this Plan document, the Administrative Committee may only amend or terminate
such provisions with the consent of the Participant.

         9.2      Termination of Plan. The Controlling Company expects to
continue the Plan but reserves the right to discontinue and terminate the Plan
at any time, for any reason. Any action to terminate the Plan will be taken by
the Board in the form of a written Plan amendment executed by a duly authorized
officer of the Controlling Company.

         9.3      Withdrawal from Plan. The Administrative Committee may
terminate the designation of a Participating Company, effective as of any date.
A Participating Company may withdraw from participation in the Plan, with the
approval of the Administrative Committee, by action of its board of directors;
provided, such action is communicated in writing to the Administrative
Committee. The withdrawal of a Participating Company shall be effective as of
the last day of the Plan Year in which the notice of withdrawal is received by
the Administrative Committee (unless the Controlling Company or Administrative
Committee consents to a different effective date). Any such Participating
Company which ceases to be a Participating Company shall be liable for all costs
and liabilities accrued, with respect to its employees, through the effective
date of its withdrawal or termination. The withdrawing or terminating
Participating Company shall have no right to direct that assets of the Plan be
transferred to a successor plan for its employees unless such transfer is
approved by the Controlling Company or Administrative Committee in its sole
discretion.

         9.4      Distributions Upon Termination or Withdrawal. Upon the
withdrawal of a Participating Company from the Plan, the Plan Agreements of the
affected Participants who are employed by that Participating Company shall
terminate and their Accounts, determined as if they experienced a Termination of
Employment of the date of Plan withdrawal or, if Plan withdrawal occurs after
the date upon which a Participant was eligible to Retire, then with respect to
that Participant as if he had Retired on the date of Plan withdrawal, shall be
paid to the Participants as follows: Prior to a Change in Control, if the
participation in Plan is terminated with respect to all of its Participants, a
Participating Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion, and
notwithstanding any elections made by the Participant, to pay such benefits in a
lump sum or in annual installments of up to 180 months, with amounts credited
and debited during the installment period as provided herein. If the Plan is
terminated with respect to less than all of its Participants, a Participating
Company shall be required to pay such benefits in a lump sum. After a Change in
Control if the Plan is terminated, the Participating Companies shall be required
to pay such benefits in a

                                       26
<PAGE>

lump sum. The termination of the Plan shall not adversely affect any Participant
or Beneficiary who has become entitled to the payment of any benefits under the
Plan as of the date of termination; provided however, that the Administrative
Committee shall have the right to accelerate installment payments without a
premium or prepayment penalty by paying the Account in a lump sum or pursuant to
an installment method using a shorter period of time.

                                   ARTICLE X
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         10.1     Taxation. It is the intention of the Controlling Company that
the benefits payable hereunder will not be deductible by the Participating
Companies nor taxable for federal income tax purposes to Participants or
Beneficiaries until such benefits are paid by the Participating Company, or the
Trust, as the case may be, to such Participants or Beneficiaries. Each
Participant will be taxed for purposes of the Federal Insurance Contributions
Act ("FICA") as of the later of (i) the date that contributions are credited to
the Participant's Accounts; and (ii) the date that such amounts become vested.
When benefits are paid hereunder, it is the intention of the Controlling Company
that they will be deductible by the Participating Companies under Code Section
162.

         10.2     No Employment Contract. Nothing herein contained is intended
to be nor will be construed as constituting a contract or other arrangement
between a Participating Company and any Participant to the effect that the
Participant will be employed by the Participating Company for any specific
period of time.

         10.3     Headings. The headings of the various articles and sections in
the Plan are solely for convenience and will not be relied upon in construing
any provisions hereof. Any reference to a section will refer to a section of the
Plan unless specified otherwise.

         10.4     Gender and Number. Use of any gender in the Plan will be
deemed to include all genders when appropriate, and use of the singular number
will be deemed to include the plural when appropriate, and vice versa in each
instance.

         10.5     Assignment of Benefits. The right of a Participant or his
Beneficiary to receive payments under the Plan may not be anticipated,
alienated, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered, attached or
garnished by creditors of such Participant or Beneficiary, except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution and then only to the extent permitted under
the terms of the Plan.

         10.6     Legally Incompetent. The Administrative Committee, in its sole
discretion, may direct that payment to be made to an incompetent or disabled
person, whether because of minority or mental or physical disability, be made
instead to the guardian of such person or to the person having custody of such
person, without further liability on the part of the Participating Company for
the amount of such payment to the person on whose account such payment is made.

         10.7     Governing Law. The Plan will be construed, administered and
governed in all respects in accordance with applicable federal law (including
ERISA) and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, in accordance with the
laws of the State of Alabama. If any provisions of this instrument will be held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining provisions hereof will continue to be fully effective.

         10.8     Exclusive Benefit. The benefits payable hereunder will be the
exclusive benefit payable to any Participant under the Plan and any of the Prior
Plans.

                                       28
<PAGE>

         10.9     Furnishing Information. A Participant or his Beneficiary will
cooperate with the Administrative Committee by furnishing any and all
information requested by the Administrative Committee and take such other
actions as may be requested in order to facilitate the administration of the
Plan and the payments of benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking
such physical examinations as the Administrative Committee may deem necessary.

         10.10    Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given
to the Administrative Committee under this Plan shall be sufficient if in
writing and hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to the
address below:

                          Russell Corporation
                          Attention:  Legal Department
                          3330 Cumberland Boulevard, SE
                          Suite 800
                          Atlanta, Georgia  30339

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is
made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for
registration or certification.

Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a Participant under
this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand-delivered, or sent by mail,
to the last known address of the Participant.

         10.11    Successors. The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure
to the benefit of the Participating Companies and their successors and assigns
and the Participant and the Participant's designated Beneficiaries.

         10.12    Validity. In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal
or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the
remaining parts hereof, but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such
illegal or invalid provision had never been inserted herein.

         10.13    Court Order. The Administrative Committee is authorized to
make any payments directed by court order in any action in which the Plan or the
Administrative Committee has been named as a party. In addition, if a court
determines that a spouse or former spouse of a Participant has an interest in
the Participant's benefits under the Plan in connection with a property
settlement or otherwise, the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion,
shall have the right, notwithstanding any election made by a Participant, to
immediately distribute the spouse's or former spouse's interest in the
Participant's benefits under the Plan to that spouse or former spouse.

         10.14    Distribution in the Event of Taxation.

                  (a)      In General. If, for any reason, all or any portion of
a Participant's benefits under this Plan becomes taxable to the Participant
prior to receipt, a Participant may petition the Administrative Committee before
a Change in Control, or the Trustee of the Trust after a Change in Control, for
a distribution of what portion of his benefit that has become taxable. Upon the
grant of such a petition, which grant shall not be unreasonably withheld (and,
after a Change in Control, shall be granted), the Participating Company
employing the Participant shall distribute

                                       29
<PAGE>

to the Participant immediately available funds in an amount equal to the taxable
portion of his benefit (which amount shall not exceed a Participant's unpaid
Account under the Plan). If the petition is granted, the tax liability
distribution shall be made within 90 days of the date when the Participant's
petition is granted. Such a distribution shall affect and reduce the benefits to
the paid under this Plan.

                  (b)      Trust. If the Trust terminates in accordance with its
terms and benefits are distributed from the Trust to a Participant in accordance
with such terms, the Participant's benefits under this Plan shall be reduced to
the extent of such distributions.

         10.15    Insurance. The Participating Companies, on their own behalf or
on behalf of the Trustee of the Trust, and in their sole discretion, may apply
for and procure insurance on the life of the Participant, in such amounts and in
such forms as the Trust may choose. The Participating Companies or the Trustee
of the Trust, as the case may be, shall be the sole owner and beneficiary of any
such insurance. The Participant shall have no interest whatsoever in any such
policy or policies, and at the request of the Participating Companies shall
submit to medical examinations and supply such information and execute such
documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the
Participating Companies have applied for insurance.

         10.16    Legal Fees to Enforce Rights After Change in Control. The
Participating Companies are aware that upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control, the Board or the board of director of a Participating Company (which
might then be composed of new members) or a shareholder of a Participating
Company, or of any successor corporation might then cause or attempt to cause a
Participating Company or such successor to refuse to comply with its obligations
under the Plan and might cause or attempt to cause the Participating Company to
institute, or may institute, litigation seeking to deny Participants the
benefits intended under the Plan. In these circumstances, the purpose of the
Plan could be frustrated. Accordingly, if, following a Change in Control, it
should appear to any Participant that a Participating Company has failed to
comply with any of its obligations under the Plan or any agreement hereunder or,
if a Participating Company takes any action to declare the Plan void or
unenforceable or institutes any litigation or other legal action designed to
deny, diminish or to recover from any Participant the benefits intended to be
provided, then the Participating Companies irrevocably authorize such
Participant to retain counsel of his choice at the expense of the Participating
Companies (who shall be jointly and severally liable) to represent such
Participant in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or
other legal action, whether by or against a Participating Company or any
director, officer, shareholder or other person affiliated with a Participating
Company or any successor thereto in any jurisdiction; provided, however, the
liability of the Participating Companies shall be limited to all reasonable fees
and costs of the Participant's counsel.

         award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written agreement,
         which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and
         conditions:

                  (a)      A bookkeeping account, known as the Stock Retainer
                  Deferral Account, shall be established for each Eligible
                  Director. The Stock Retainer Deferral Account shall reflect
                  the number of Stock Retainer Deferred Shares awarded to the
                  Eligible Director in accordance with Section 2.37 hereof.

                  (b)      Additional Stock Retainer Deferred Shares shall be
                  credited to each Stock Retainer Deferral Account on each date
                  that the Company pays a dividend on the

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

                  Common Stock. The number of additional Stock Retainer Deferred
                  Shares so credited shall be determined by dividing the
                  dividend which would be paid on the number of shares of Common
                  Stock equal to the number of Stock Retainer Deferred Shares
                  credited to the Eligible Director's Stock Retainer Deferral
                  Account as of the dividend record date ("Dividend Equivalent")
                  by an amount equal to the mean price of a share of Common
                  Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date which such
                  dividend is paid to the Company's shareholders. In determining
                  the number of Stock Retainer Deferred Shares to be credited to
                  an Eligible Director's Stock Retainer Deferral Account in
                  accordance with this Section 6.2(b), fractions of a Stock
                  Retainer Deferred Share shall be computed to three decimal
                  places.

                  (c)      Shares of Common Stock underlying an award of Stock
                  Retainer Deferred Shares shall be delivered to the Eligible
                  Director on the Stock Retainer Deferral Date. Delivery of such
                  Common Stock shall be made in whole shares in a single payment
                  on such date. Any fractional share of Common Stock to which
                  the Eligible Director is entitled as of the date of the single
                  payment or last installment shall be paid in cash.

                  (d)      Neither the Eligible Director nor any other person
                  claiming under the Eligible Director shall have any right to
                  the distribution of any Shares of Common Stock relating to
                  Stock Retainer Deferred Shares in advance of the Stock
                  Retainer Deferral Date. Any shares of Common Stock in respect
                  of Stock Retainer Deferred Shares which shall not have been
                  paid to the Eligible Director during his or her lifetime shall
                  be paid to the Eligible Director's beneficiary, if any, or
                  otherwise in accordance with Article 8 hereof.

                  (e)      Shares of Common Stock in respect of Stock Retainer
                  Deferred Shares required to be delivered in accordance with
                  Article 8 hereof shall be made in the same manner and at the
                  same time or times as such Shares of Common Stock would have
                  been delivered under Section 6.2(c) hereof.

                  (f)      Stock Retainer Deferred Shares and the Shares of
                  Common Stock covered by an award of Stock Retainer Deferred
                  Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise
                  disposed of, or mortgaged, pledged or otherwise encumbered
                  until the Shares of Common Stock have been delivered at the
                  end of the deferral period. The right of the Eligible Director
                  or any other person designated pursuant to Article 8 hereof to
                  receive shares of Common Stock covered by an award of Stock
                  Retainer Deferred Shares shall not be accelerated.

                  (g)      Any Eligible Director may decline an award of Stock
                  Retainer Deferred Shares for any year; provided, however, that
                  no cash compensation shall be paid in lieu thereof. Any
                  Eligible Director who declines an award of Stock Retainer
                  Deferred Shares must do so in writing prior to the performance
                  of any services as an Eligible Director for the year to which
                  such award of Stock Retainer Deferred Shares relates."

                                       IX.

         Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall remain in full
         force and effect.

         Executed this _____ day of December, 2002.
