provisions of Section 13 hereof, the aggregate number of Shares with respect to
which Awards may be made pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed 224,825. Such

granted under the Plan with respect to the number of Shares as to which such
termination has occurred.

         4.       SIX MONTH HOLDING PERIOD.

                  A total of six months must elapse between the date of the
grant of an Option and the date of the sale of Common Stock received through the
exercise of an Option.

         5.       ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN.

                  (a) (i) COMPOSITION OF THE COMMITTEE. Except as indicated in
paragraph 5(a)(ii) below, the Plan shall be administered by the Committee
consisting of at least three non-employee Directors of FirstMerit appointed by
the Board of Directors of FirstMerit and serving at the pleasure of such Board.
Officers, Directors, key employers and other persons who are designated by the
Committee shall be eligible to receive Awards under the Plan, and all persons
designated as members of the Committee shall be "disinterested persons" within
the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

                      (ii) For the purpose of granting Awards to directors, the
selection of any Director to whom Awards may be granted, as well as the number
of Shares subject to Awards, must be determined by a "disinterested committee,"
as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

                  (b) POWERS OF THE COMMITTEE. The Committee is authorized (but
only to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan or to
resolutions adopted by the Board) to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to determine the form and
content of Awards to be issued under the Plan and to make other determinations
necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, and shall have and
may exercise such other power and authority as may be delegated to it by the
Board from time to time. A majority of the entire Committee shall constitute a
quorum and the action of a majority of the members present at any meeting at
which a quorum is present shall be deemed the action of the Committee. In no
event may the Committee revoke outstanding Awards without the consent of the
Participant.

                  The Chairman of the Corporation and such other officers as
shall be designated by the Committee are hereby authorized to execute
instruments evidencing Awards on behalf of the Corporation and to cause them to
be delivered to the Participants.

                  (c) EFFECT OF COMMITTEE'S DECISION. All decisions,
determinations and

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

interpretations of the Committee shall be final and conclusive on all persons
affected thereby.

         6.       ELIGIBILITY.

                  (i) Awards may be granted to officers, Directors, key
employees and other persons. The Committee shall from time to time determine the
officers, Directors, key employees and other persons who shall be granted Awards
under the Plan, the number to be granted to each such officer, Director, key
employee and other persons under the Plan, and whether Awards granted to each
such Participant under the Plan shall be Incentive and/or Non-Incentive Stock
Options. In selecting Participants and in determining the number of Shares of
Common Stock to be granted to each such Participant pursuant to each Award
granted under the Plan, the Committee may consider the nature of the services
rendered by each such Participant, each such Participant's current and potential
contribution to the Corporation and such other factors as the Committee may, in
its sole discretion, deem relevant. Officers, Directors, key employees or other
persons who have been granted an Award may, if otherwise eligible, be granted
additional Awards.

                  (ii) The aggregate fair market value (determined as of the
date the Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock
Options are exercisable for the first time by each Employee during any calendar
year (under all Incentive Stock Option plans, as defined in Section 422 of the
Code, of the Corporation or any present or future Parent or Subsidiary of the
Corporation) shall not exceed $100,000. Notwithstanding the prior provisions of
this Section 6, the Committee may grant Options in excess of the foregoing
limitations, provided said Options shall be clearly and specifically designated
as not being Incentive Stock Options, as defined in Section 422 of the Code.

                  (iii) In no event shall Shares subject to Options granted to
non-employee Directors in the aggregate under this Plan exceed more than 40%
(89,930 shares) of the total number of Shares authorized for delivery under this
Plan pursuant to Section 3 herein.

         7. TERM OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of
ten (10) years from the Effective Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to
Section 18 hereof. No option shall be granted under the Plan after ten (10)
years from the Effective Date.

         8. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. Incentive Stock
Options may be granted only to Participants who are Employees. Each Incentive
Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an instrument in
such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve. Each and every
Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall comply with, and be
subject to, the following terms and conditions:

                  (a)      OPTION PRICE.

                                       4
<PAGE>   5

                           (i) The price per Share at which each Incentive Stock
Option granted under the Plan may be exercised shall not, as to any particular
Incentive Stock Option, be less than the fair market value of the Common Stock
at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted. For such purposes, if the
Common Stock is traded otherwise than on a national securities exchange at the
time of the granting of an Option, then the price per Share of the Optioned
Stock shall be not less than the mean between the bid and asked price on the
date the Incentive Stock Option is granted or, if there is no bid and asked
price on said date, then on the next prior business day on which there was a bid
and asked price. If no such bid and asked price is available, then the price per
Share shall be determined by the Committee. If the Common Stock is listed on a
national securities exchange at the time of the granting of an Incentive Stock
Option, then the price per Share shall be not less than the average of the
highest and lowest selling price on such exchange on the date such Incentive
Stock Option is granted or, if there were no sales on said date, then the price
shall be not less than the mean between the bid and asked price on such date.

                           (ii) In the case of an Employee who owns Common Stock
representing more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Common Stock at the
time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, the Incentive Stock Option price
shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market
value of the Common Stock at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted.

                  (b) PAYMENT. Full payment for each Share of Common Stock
purchased upon the exercise of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan
shall be made at the time of exercise of each such Incentive Stock Option and
shall be paid in cash (in United States Dollars), Common Stock or a combination
of cash and Common Stock. Common Stock utilized in full or partial payment of
the exercise price shall be valued at its fair market value at the date of
exercise. The Corporation shall accept full or partial payment in Common Stock
only to the extent permitted by applicable law. No Shares of Common Stock shall
be issued until full payment therefor has been received by the Corporation, and
no Optionee shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Corporation
until Shares of Common Stock are issued to him.

                  (c) TERM OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. The term of each incentive
Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be not more than ten (10) years
from the date each such Incentive Stock Option is granted, provided that in the
case of an Employee who owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of
the Common Stock outstanding at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted,
the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall not exceed five (5) years.

                  (d) EXERCISE GENERALLY. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 10 hereof, no Incentive Stock Option may be exercised unless the
Optionee shall have been in the employ of the Corporation at all times during
the period beginning with the date of grant of any such Incentive Stock Option
and ending on the date three (3) months prior to the date of exercise of any
such Incentive Stock Option. The Committee may impose additional conditions upon
the right of an Optionee to exercise any Incentive Stock Option granted
hereunder which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan or the
requirements for qualification as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of
the Code.

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

                  (e) CASHLESS EXERCISE. An Optionee who has held an Incentive
Stock Option for at least six months may engage in the "cashless exercise" of
the Option. In a cashless exercise, an Optionee gives the Corporation written
notice of the exercise of the Option together with an order to a registered
broker-dealer or equivalent third party, to sell part or all of the Optioned
Stock and to deliver enough of the proceeds to the Corporation to pay the Option
price and any applicable withholding taxes. If the Optionee does not sell the
Optioned Stock through a registered broker- dealer or equivalent third party, he
can give the Corporation written notice of the exercise of the Option and the
third party purchaser of the Optioned Stock shall pay the Option price plus any
applicable withholding taxes to the Corporation.

                  (f) TRANSFERABILITY. Any Incentive Stock Option granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be exercised during an Optionee's lifetime only by
the Optionee to whom it was granted and shall not be assignable or transferable
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

         9. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF NON-INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. Each
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an
instrument in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve. Each
and every Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall comply
with and be subject to the following terms and conditions.

                  (a) OPTIONS GRANTED TO DIRECTORS. [THIS PROVISION WAS
TERMINATED EFFECTIVE THE DATE OF THE MERGER BETWEEN THE FORMER PARENT COMPANY
AND FIRSTMERIT CORPORATION]. Subject to the limitations of Section 6(iii),
12,847(1) Non-Incentive Stock Options will be granted to each Director who is
not an Employee as of the Effective Date at an exercise price equal to the fair
market value of the Common Stock on such date of grant. The Options shall be
exercisable at the rate of 25% of the total granted each year on the anniversary
date of the Effective Date, subject to stockholder ratification of the Plan and
will remain exercisable for up to ten years from such date of grant; provided
however that such options shall be 100% exercisable in the event the optionee
terminates service on the Board as a Director or Director Emeritus after
completing at least ten years of service as such or due to death, disability or
a change in control of the Association or the Corporation as defined in Section
13(b), herein. The price per Share at which such Options granted shall be equal
to the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time such Options are
granted. For such purposes, if the Common Stock is traded otherwise than on a
national securities exchange at the time of the granting of the Options, then
the price per Share of the Optioned Stock shall be not less than the mean
between the bid and asked price on the date the Options are granted or, if there
is no bid and asked price on said date, then on the next prior business day on
which there was a bid and asked price. If no such bid and asked price is
available, then the price per Share shall be determined by the Committee. If the
Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange at the time of the
granting of an Option, then the price per Share shall be not less than the
average of

------------------
         1 Equal to 40% of total shares reserved under the plan divided by seven
non-employee directors.

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

the highest and lowest selling price on such exchange on the date such Options
are granted or, if there were no sales on said date, then the price shall be not
less than the mean between the bid and asked price on such date. Such Options
may be exercised only while the Optionee is a Director or Director Emeritus of
the Corporation, or within one year after termination of the Optionee's status
as a Director or Director Emeritus but not later than the date on which such
Options would otherwise expire, or in the event of such person's death during
the term of his directorship, by the personal representative of his estate or
person or persons to whom his rights under such Option shall have passed by will
or by laws of descent and distribution. Such Options of a deceased Director or
Director Emeritus may be exercised within two years from the date of his death,
but not later than the date on which the Option would otherwise expire. Unless
otherwise inapplicable, or inconsistent with the provisions of this paragraph,
the Options to be granted to Directors hereunder shall be subject to all other
provisions of this Plan.

                  (b) OPTION PRICE. The exercise price per Share of Common Stock
for each Non- Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan, other than
Options granted pursuant to Section 9(a) herein, shall be at such price as the
Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

                  (c) PAYMENT. Full payment for each Share of Common Stock
purchased upon the exercise of any Non-Incentive Stock Option granted under the
Plan shall be made at the time of exercise of each such Non-Incentive Stock
Option and shall be paid in cash (in United States Dollars), Common Stock or a
combination of cash and Common Stock. Common Stock utilized in full or partial
payment of the exercise price shall be valued at its fair market value at the
date of exercise. The Corporation shall accept full or partial payment in Common
Stock only to the extent permitted by applicable law. No Shares of Common Stock
shall be issued until full payment therefore has been received by the
Corporation and no Optionee shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the
Corporation until the Shares of Common Stock are issued to him.

                  (d) TERM. The term of each Non-Incentive Stock Option granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be not more than ten (10) years from the date each
such Non-Incentive Stock Option is granted.

                  (e) EXERCISE GENERALLY. The Committee may impose additional
conditions upon the right of any Participant to exercise any Non-Incentive Stock
Option granted hereunder which is not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan.

                  (f) CASHLESS EXERCISE. An Optionee who has held a
Non-Incentive Stock Option for at least six months may engage in the "cashless
exercise" of the Option. In a cashless exercise, an Optionee gives the
Corporation written notice of the exercise of the Option together with an order
to a registered broker-dealer or equivalent third party, to sell part or all of
the Optioned Stock and to deliver enough of the proceeds to the Corporation to
pay the Option price and any applicable withholding taxes. If the Optionee does
not sell the Optioned Stock through a registered broker- dealer or equivalent
third party, he can give the Corporation written notice of the exercise of the
Option and the third party purchaser of the Optioned Stock shall pay the Option
price plus any applicable withholding taxes to the Corporation.

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

                  (g) TRANSFERABILITY. Any Non-Incentive Stock Option granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be exercised during an Optionee's lifetime only by
the Optionee to whom it was granted and shall not be assignable or transferable
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

         10.      EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, DISABILITY OR DEATH ON
                  INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS.

                  (a) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. In the event that any
Optionee's employment with the Corporation shall terminate for any reason, other
than Permanent and Total Disability (as such term is defined in Section 22(e)(3)
of the Code) or death, all of any such Optionee's Incentive Stock Options, and
all of any such Optionee's rights to purchase or receive Shares of Common Stock
pursuant thereto, shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (1) the
respective expiration dates of any such Incentive Stock Options or (ii) the
expiration of not more than three (3) months after the date of such termination
of employment, but only if, and to the extent that, the Optionee was entitled to
exercise any such Incentive Stock Options at the date of such termination of
employment. In the event that a subsidiary ceases to be a subsidiary of the
Corporation, the employment of all of its employees who are not immediately
thereafter employees of the Corporation shall be deemed to terminate upon the
date such subsidiary so ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation.

                  (b) DISABILITY. In the event that any Optionee's employment
with the Corporation shall terminate as the result of the Permanent and Total
Disability of such Optionee, such Optionee may exercise any Incentive Stock
Options granted to him pursuant to the Plan at any time prior to the earlier of
(i) the respective expiration dates of any such Incentive Stock Options or (ii)
the date which is one (1) year after the date of such termination of employment,
but only if, and to the extent that, the Optionee was entitled to exercise any
such Incentive Stock Options at the date of such termination of employment.

                  (c) DEATH. In the event of the death of an Optionee, any
Incentive Stock Options granted to such Optionee may be exercised by the person
or persons to whom the Optionee's rights under any such Incentive Stock Options
pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution (including the
Optionee's estate during the period of administration) at any time prior to the
earlier of (i) the respective expiration dates of any such Incentive Stock
Options or (ii) the date which is two (2) years after the date of death of such
Optionee but only if, and to the extent that, the Optionee was entitled to
exercise any such Incentive Stock Options at the date of death. For purposes of
this Section 10(c), any Incentive Stock Option held by an Optionee shall be
considered exercisable at the date of his death if the only unsatisfied
condition precedent to the exercisability of such Incentive Stock Option at the
date of death is the passage of a specified period of time. At the discretion of
the Committee, upon exercise of such Options the Optionee may receive Shares or
cash or combination thereof. If cash shall be paid in lieu of shares, such cash
shall be equal to the difference between the fair market value of such Shares
and the exercise price of such Options on the exercise date.

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

                  (d) INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS DEEMED EXERCISABLE. For purposes
of Sections 10(a), 10(b) and 10(c) above, any Incentive Stock Option held by any
Optionee shall be considered exercisable at the date of termination of his
employment if any such Incentive Stock Option would have been exercisable at
such date of termination of employment.

                  (e) TERMINATION OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. To the extent that
any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan to any Optionee whose
employment with the Corporation terminates shall not have been exercised within
the applicable period set forth in this Section 10, any such Incentive Stock
Option, and all rights to purchase or receive Shares of Common Stock pursuant
thereto, as the case may be, shall terminate on the last day of the applicable
period.

         11. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, DISABILITY OR DEATH ON
NON-INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. The terms and conditions of Non-Incentive Stock
Options relating to the effect of the termination of an Optionee's employment,
disability of an Optionee or his death shall be such terms and conditions as the
Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine at the time of termination,
unless specifically provided for by the terms of the Agreement at the time of
grant of the Award.

         12. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE AND RESTRICTIONS ON DISPOSITION. The Committee,
in its sole discretion may include, as a term of any Incentive Stock Option or
Non-Incentive Stock Option, the right (the "Repurchase Right"), but not the
obligation, to repurchase all or any amount of the Shares acquired by an
Optionee pursuant to the exercise of any such Options. The intent of the
Repurchase Right is to encourage the continued employment of the Optionee. The
Repurchase Right shall provide for, among other things, a specified duration of
the Repurchase Right, a specified price per Share to be paid upon the exercise
of the Repurchase Right and a restriction on the disposition of the Shares by
the Optionee during the period of the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right may
permit the Corporation to transfer or assign such right to another party. The
Corporation may exercise the Repurchase Right only to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

         13.      RECAPITALIZATION, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION, CHANGE IN CONTROL AND
                  SIMILAR TRANSACTIONS.

                  (a) ADJUSTMENT. Subject to any required action by the
stockholders of the Corporation, within the sole discretion of the Committee,
the aggregate number of Shares of Common Stock for which Options may be granted
hereunder, the number of Shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding
Option, and the exercise price per Share of Common Stock of each such Option,
shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number
of issued and outstanding Shares of Common Stock resulting from a subdivision or
consolidation of Shares (whether by reason of merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, reclassification, split-up, combination of shares, or
otherwise) or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock) or
any other increase or decrease in the number of such Shares of Common Stock
effected without the receipt of consideration by the Corporation (other than
Shares held by dissenting stockholders).

<PAGE>   10

                  (b) CHANGE IN CONTROL. All outstanding Awards shall become
immediately exercisable in the event of a change in control or imminent change
in control of the Corporation, as determined by the Committee. In the event of
such a change in control or imminent change in control, the Optionee shall, at
the discretion of the Committee, be entitled to receive cash in an amount equal
to the fair market value of the Common Stock subject to any Incentive or Non-
Incentive Stock Option over the Option Price of such Shares, in exchange for the
surrender of such Options by the Optionee on that date in the event of a change
in control or imminent change in control of the Corporation.

                  For purposes of this Section 13, the term "Change in Control"
shall mean the occurrence of any one of the following events:

                  (a) individuals who, on April 19, 2000, constitute the Board
(the "Incumbent Directors") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent
to April 19, 2000 whose election or nomination for election was approved by a
vote of at least 2/3rds of the Incumbent Directors then on the Board (either by
a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which
such person is named as a nominee for director, without written objection to
such nomination) shall be an Incumbent Director; provided, however, that no
director of the Company initially as a result of an actual or threatened
election contest with respect to directors or any other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the
Board shall be deemed to be an Incumbent Director;

                  (b) any "person" (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(9)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and as used in
Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes a "beneficial
owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities eligible to
vote for the election of the Board (the "Company Voting Securities"); provided,
however, that the event described in this paragraph (b) shall not be deemed to
be a Change in Control by virtue of any of the following acquisitions:

                           (i)  by the Company or any Subsidiary,

                           (ii) by any employee benefit plan sponsored or
                  maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary,

                           (iii) by any underwriter temporarily holding
                  securities pursuant to an offering of such securities,

                           (iv) pursuant to a Non-Control Transaction (as
                  defined in paragraph (c)), or

                           (v) a transaction (other than one described in (c)
                  below) in which Company Voting Securities are acquired from
                  the Company, if a majority of the Incumbent Directors then on
                  the Board approve a resolution providing expressly that the
                  acquisition pursuant to this clause (v) does not constitute a
                  Change in Control under

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

                  this paragraph (b);

                  (c) the consummation of a merger, consolidation, statutory
share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries that requires the approval of the Company's
shareholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the
transaction (a "Business Combination"), unless immediately following such
Business Combination:

                           (i) more than 50% of the total voting power of (x)
                  the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (the
                  "Surviving Entity"), or (y) if applicable, the ultimate parent
                  corporation that directly or indirectly has beneficial
                  ownership of 100% of the voting securities eligible to elect
                  directors ("Total Voting Power") of the Surviving Entity (the
                  "Parent Entity"), is represented by Company Voting Securities
                  that were outstanding immediately prior to such Business
                  Combination (or, if applicable, shares into which such Company
                  Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business
                  Combination), and such voting power among the holders thereof
                  is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of
                  such Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof
                  immediately prior to the Business Combination,

                           (ii) no person (other than any employee benefit plan
                  (or related trusts) sponsored or maintained by the Surviving
                  Entity or the Parent Entity), is or becomes the beneficial
                  owner, directly or indirectly, of 25% or more of the Total
                  Voting Power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to
                  elect directors of the Parent Entity (or, if there is no
                  Parent Entity, the Surviving Entity), and

                           (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board
                  of directors of the Parent Entity (or, if there is no Parent
                  Entity, the Surviving Entity) following the consummation of
                  the Business Combination were Incumbent Directors at the time
                  of the Board's approval of the execution of the initial
                  agreement providing for such Business Combination (any
                  Business Combination which satisfies all of the criteria
                  specified in (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be deemed to be a
                  "Non-Control Transaction"); or

                  (d) the shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control of the
Company shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires
beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the Company Voting Securities as a
result of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities by the Company which
reduces the number of Company Voting Securities outstanding; provided, that if
after such acquisition by the Company such person becomes the beneficial owner
of additional Company Voting Securities that increases the percentage of
outstanding Company Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person by more
than one percent, a Change in Control of the Company

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

shall then occur.

                  For purposes of this Section 13, "imminent change in control"
shall refer to any offer or announcement, oral or written, by any person or
persons acting as a group, to acquire control of the Corporation. The decision
of the Committee as to whether a change in control or imminent change in control
has occurred shall be conclusive and binding.

                      (c) EXTRAORDINARY CORPORATE ACTION. Subject to any
required action by the stockholders of the Corporation, in the event of any
change in control, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, exchange of Shares,
spin-off, reorganization, tender offer, liquidation or other extraordinary
corporate action or event, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the
power, prior or subsequent to such action or event to:

                              (i) appropriately adjust the number of Shares of
Common Stock subject to each Option, the exercise price per Share of Common
Stock, and the consideration to be given or received by the Corporation upon the
exercise of any outstanding Option;

                              (ii) cancel any or all previously granted Options,
provided that appropriate consideration is paid to the Optionee in connection
therewith; and/or

                              (iii) make such other adjustments in connection
with the Plan as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary,
desirable, appropriate or advisable; provided, however, that no action shall be
taken by the Committee which would cause Incentive Stock Options granted
pursuant to the Plan to fail to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the
Code.

                      Except as expressly provided in Sections 13(a) and 13(b)
hereof, no Optionee shall have any rights by reason of the occurrence of any of
the events described in this Section 13.

              (d) ACCELERATION. The Committee shall at all times have the power
to accelerate the exercise date of Options previously granted under the Plan.

         14. TIME OF GRANTING OPTIONS. The date of grant of an Option under the
Plan shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Committee makes the
determination of granting such Option. Except, however, for purposes of
compliance with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the date of
grant of an Option shall be deemed the later of the date of grant or the date of
stockholder approval of the Plan. Notice of the determination of the grant of an
Option shall be given to each individual to whom an Option is so granted within
a reasonable time after the date of such grant in a form determined by the
Committee.

         15. EFFECTIVE DATE. The Plan became effective the effective date of the
federal stock charter of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of New
Castle, a former subsidiary of First Shenago Bancorp, Inc., which were
subsidiaries of Signal Corp, which merged with and into FirstMerit Corporation.

         16. APPROVAL BY STOCKHOLDERS. The Plan was approved by stockholders
within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan became effective.

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

         17. MODIFICATION OF OPTIONS. At any time and from time to time, the
Board may authorize the Committee to direct the execution of an instrument
providing for the modification of any outstanding Option, provided no such
modification, extension or renewal shall confer on the holder of said Option any
right or benefit which could not be conferred on him by the grant of a new
Option at such time, or shall not materially decrease the Optionee's benefits
under the Option without the consent of the holder of the Option, except as
otherwise permitted under Section 18 hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, the Committee shall have the authority to cancel outstanding
Options with the consent of the Optionee and to reissue new Options at a lower
exercise price, but in no event less than the then fair market value per share
of Common Stock, in the event that the fair market value per share of Common
Stock at any time prior to the date of exercise of outstanding Options falls
below the exercise price of such Options.

         18. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.

              (a) ACTION BY THE BOARD. The Board may alter, suspend, or
discontinue the Plan, except that no action of the Board may increase (other
than as provided in Section 13 hereof) the maximum number of Shares permitted to
be optioned under the Plan, materially increase the benefits accruing to
Participants under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for
eligibility for participation in the Plan unless such action of the Board shall
be subject to approval or ratification by the stockholders of the Corporation.

              (b) CHANGE IN APPLICABLE LAW. Notwithstanding any other provision
contained in the Plan, in the event of a change in any federal or state law,
rule or regulation which would make the exercise of all or part of any
previously granted Incentive and/or Non-Incentive Stock Option unlawful or
subject the Corporation to any penalty, the Committee may restrict any such
exercise without the consent of the Optionee or other holder thereof in order to
comply with any such law, rule or regulation or to avoid any such penalty.

         19. CONDITIONS UPON ISSUANCE OF SHARES. Shares shall not be issued with
respect to any Option granted under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of
such Shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without
limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder, any applicable state securities law and the requirements
of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed.

         The inability of the Corporation to obtain from any regulatory body or
authority deemed by the Corporation's counsel to be necessary to the lawful
issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder shall relieve the Corporation of any
liability in respect of the non-issuance or sale of such Shares.

         As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Corporation may
require the person exercising the Option to make such representations and
warranties as may be necessary to assure the availability of an exemption from
the registration requirements of federal or state securities law.

                                       13
<PAGE>   14

         20. RESERVATION OF SHARES. During the term of the Plan, the Corporation
will reserve and keep available a number of Shares sufficient to satisfy the
requirements of the Plan.

         21. UNSECURED OBLIGATION. No Participant under the Plan shall have any
interest in any fund or special asset of the Corporation by reason of the Plan
or the grant of any Incentive or Non- Incentive Stock Option under the Plan. No
trust fund shall be created in connection with the Plan or any grant of any
Incentive or Non-Incentive Stock Option hereunder and there shall be no required
funding of amounts which may become payable to any Participant.

         22. WITHHOLDING TAX. The Corporation shall have the right to deduct
from all amounts paid in cash with respect to the cashless exercise of Options
under the Plan any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such
cash payments. Where a Participant or other person is entitled to receive Shares
pursuant to the exercise of an Option pursuant to the Plan, the Corporation
shall have the right to require the Participant or such other person to pay the
Corporation the amount of any taxes which the Corporation is required to
withhold with respect to such Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or sell
without notice, a number of such Shares sufficient to cover the amount required
to be withheld.

         23. GOVERNING LAW. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio except to the extent that federal
law shall be deemed to apply.

                                                                   EXHIBIT 10.32

                              Amended and Restated
                     Change in Control Termination Agreement

         THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is effective the 1st day of November,
2000, by and between FirstMerit Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the "Company")
and the executive employee who has executed this Agreement ("Employee").

                                R E C I T A L S:

         A. The Employee serves as an executive and is considered a key
corporate officer of the Company or one of its affiliates.

         B. The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the
interests of the Company's shareholders will be best served by assuring that its
key corporate officers will adhere to the policies of the Board of Directors and
senior management with respect to any event by which another entity would
acquire effective control of the Company.

         C. The Board of Directors has also determined that it is in the best
interest of the shareholders to promote stability among key officers and
employees.

         D. Employee and the Company may have previously entered into a
Termination Agreement which agreement is being replaced in its entirety by this
Agreement, and may also enter into a Displacement Agreement which protects
Employee in the circumstance of a displacement of the Employee which occurred
due to a merger or acquisition, and that Employee will not be entitled to the be
paid benefits under both this Agreement and the Displacement Agreement.

         IN CONSIDERATION OF THE FOREGOING, the mutual covenants hereinafter
contained and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Company and Employee agree as follows:

         1. DUTIES OF EMPLOYEE. Employee shall support the position of the Board
of Directors and senior management and shall take any action reasonably
requested by the Board of Directors with respect to any event by which another
entity would acquire effective control of the Company.

         2. CHANGE IN CONTROL. The term "Change in Control" shall mean the
occurrence of any one of the following events:

                  (a) individuals who, on April 19, 2000, constitute the Board
(the "Incumbent Directors") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent
to April 19, 2000 whose election or nomination for election

                                       -1-

<PAGE>   2

was approved by a vote of at least 2/3rds of the Incumbent Directors then on the
Board (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the
Company in which such person is named as a nominee for director, without written
objection to such nomination) shall be an Incumbent Director; provided, however,
that no director of the Company initially as a result of an actual or threatened
election contest with respect to directors or any other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any person other than the
Board shall be deemed to be an Incumbent Director;

                  (b) any "person" (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(9)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and as used in
Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes a "beneficial
owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities eligible to
vote for the election of the Board (the "Company Voting Securities"); provided,
however, that the event described in this paragraph (b) shall not be deemed to
be a Change in Control by virtue of any of the following acquisitions:

                           (i) by the Company or any Subsidiary,

                           (ii) by any employee benefit plan sponsored or
                  maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary,

                           (iii) by any underwriter temporarily holding
                  securities pursuant to an offering of such securities,

                           (iv) pursuant to a Non-Control Transaction (as
                  defined in paragraph (c)), or

                           (v) a transaction (other than one described in (c)
                  below) in which Company Voting Securities are acquired from
                  the Company, if a majority of the Incumbent Directors then on
                  the Board approve a resolution providing expressly that the
                  acquisition pursuant to this clause (v) does not constitute a
                  Change in Control under this paragraph (b);

                  (c) the consummation of a merger, consolidation, statutory
share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries that requires the approval of the Company's
shareholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the
transaction (a "Business Combination"), unless immediately following such
Business Combination:

                           (i) more than 50% of the total voting power of (x)
                  the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (the
                  "Surviving Entity"), or (y) if applicable, the ultimate parent
                  corporation that directly or indirectly has beneficial
                  ownership of 100% of the voting securities eligible to elect
                  directors ("Total Voting Power") of the Surviving Entity (the
                  "Parent Entity"), is represented by Company Voting Securities
                  that were outstanding immediately prior to such Business
                  Combination (or, if
                                       -2-

<PAGE>   3

                  applicable, shares into which such Company Voting Securities
                  were converted pursuant to such Business Combination), and
                  such voting power among the holders thereof is in
                  substantially the same proportion as the voting power of such
                  Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof
                  immediately prior to the Business Combination,

                           (ii) no person (other than any employee benefit plan
                  (or related trusts) sponsored or maintained by the Surviving
                  Entity or the Parent Entity), is or becomes the beneficial
                  owner, directly or indirectly, of 25% or more of the Total
                  Voting Power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to
                  elect directors of the Parent Entity (or, if there is no
                  Parent Entity, the Surviving Entity), and

                           (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board
                  of directors of the Parent Entity (or, if there is no Parent
                  Entity, the Surviving Entity) following the consummation of
                  the Business Combination were Incumbent Directors at the time
                  of the Board's approval of the execution of the initial
                  agreement providing for such Business Combination (any
                  Business Combination which satisfies all of the criteria
                  specified in (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be deemed to be a
                  "Non-Control Transaction"); or

                  (d) the shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control of the
Company shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires
beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the Company Voting Securities as a
result of the acquisition of Company Voting Securities by the Company which
reduces the number of Company Voting Securities outstanding; provided, that if
after such acquisition by the Company such person becomes the beneficial owner
of additional Company Voting Securities that increases the percentage of
outstanding Company Voting Securities beneficially owned by such person by more
than one percent, a Change in Control of the Company shall then occur.

                  3. COMPANY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. The Company may terminate the
Employee's employment at any time during the term of this Agreement, subject to
the terms of this Agreement and providing the benefits stated herein if vested.

                  4. TERMINATION FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of
termination of employment subsequent to a Change in Control and prior to the
expiration of the term of this Agreement, the Employee shall be entitled to the
benefits provided in paragraph 6 unless such termination is (a) because of the
Employee's death, Retirement or Disability, (b) by the Company for Cause, or (c)
by the Employee other than for Good Reason.

                                       -3-

<PAGE>   4

                      (a) DISABILITY OR RETIREMENT. Termination of employment by
                  the Company based on "Disability" shall mean termination
                  because of Total and Permanent Disability as defined in the
                  Long-Term Disability Plan of the Company, in effect from time
                  to time, in which the Employee is participating. Termination
                  of employment based on "Retirement" shall mean termination of
                  employment by the Employee in accordance with the retirement
                  policy (including early retirement policy) which is in effect
                  from time to time and is generally applicable to the Company's
                  salaried employees.

                      (b) CAUSE. The term "Cause" shall mean termination
                  upon one or more of the following acts of the Employee:

                           (i)   Felonious criminal activity whether or not
                                 affecting the Company;

                           (ii)  Disclosure to unauthorized persons of Company
                                 information which is believed by the Board of
                                 Directors of the Company to be confidential;

                           (iii) Breach of any contract with, or violation of
                                 any legal obligation to, the Company or
                                 dishonesty; or

                           (iv)  Gross negligence or insubordination in the
                                 performance of duties of the position held by

                      (c) GOOD REASON. The term "Good Reason" shall mean

                                 Change in Control unless such reduction occurs
                                 simultaneously with a Company-wide reduction in
                                 officers' salaries;

                           (ii)  Involuntary discontinuance or reduction in the

                                 Employee and in existence at the time of a
                                 Change in Control, unless a Company-wide
                                 reduction of all officers' incentive award
                                 opportunities occurs simultaneously with such
                                 discontinuance or reduction;

                           (iii) Involuntary relocation to another office

                                  participation in any employee benefit plans
                                  maintained by the Company unless such plans
                                  are discontinued by reason of law or loss of
                                  tax deductibility to the Company with respect
                                  to contributions to such plans, or are
                                  discontinued as a matter of the Company's
                                  policy applied equally to all participants in
                                  such plans;

                           (vi)   Involuntary reduction of the Employee's paid
                                  vacation to less than 20 working days per
                                  calendar year;

                           (vii)  Failure to obtain an assumption of the
                                  Company's obligations under this Agreement by
                                  any successor to the Company, regardless of
                                  whether such entity becomes a successor to the
                                  Company as a result of a merger,
                                  consolidation, sale of the assets of the
                                  Company, or other form of reorganization; or

                           (viii) Termination of employment which is not
                                  effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination
                                  satisfying the requirements of paragraph 5
                                  herein.

                  5. NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any purported termination of the
Employee's employment by the Company or by the Employee shall be communicated by
written Notice of Termination to the other party. For purposes of this
Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate
the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, shall set
forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a
basis for termination of the Employee's employment under the provisions so
indicated and shall specify a "Date of Termination."

                  6.  COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION.

                  (a) If, after a Change in Control has occurred and prior to
the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the Employee's employment by the
Company shall be terminated: (1) by the Company other than for Cause,
Disability, Retirement, or death or (2) by the Employee for Good Reason, then
the Employee shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits provided in
subparagraph (c) below.

                  (b) If either of the conditions in subparagraph (a) above are
satisfied, the Employee shall be eligible to receive the compensation and

Employee in a lump sum on or before the fifth day following the Date of
Termination.

                  For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Month" shall mean a
period of 30 days.

                  (c) The compensation and benefits payable to an Employee
pursuant to this paragraph 6 shall be as follows:

                      (1) BASE SALARY TO DATE OF TERMINATION. The Company shall
                  pay to the Employee his/her full base salary through the Date
                  of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of
                  Termination is given or immediately preceding a Change in
                  Control, whichever is higher.

                      (2) BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay to the Employee an
                  amount equal to (i) the Employee's annual base salary (at the
                  rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given or
                  immediately preceding a Change in Control, whichever is
                  higher) multiplied by (ii) the lesser of the number indicated
                  in Item 6(c)(2)A on Exhibit A, which Exhibit is attached
                  hereto and incorporated by reference herein, or a fraction the
                  numerator of which is the number of months from and including
                  the month in which the Date of Termination occurs to and
                  including the month in which the Employee would attain the age
                  of 65 and the denominator of which is Item 6(c)(2)B on Exhibit
                  A.

                      (3) INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. The Company shall pay to the
                  Employee an incentive award in an amount equal to (i) the
                  incentive compensation payment the Employee would receive if
                  payout was made at the "target" percentage for the Employee
                  under the Company's Executive Incentive Plan in the year of
                  Employee's Date of Termination multiplied by (ii) the lesser
                  of the number indicated in Item 6(c)(3)A on Exhibit A, or a
                  fraction the numerator of which is the number of months from
                  and including the month in which the Date of Termination
                  occurs to and including the month in which the Employee would
                  attain the age of 65 and denominator of which is the number
                  indicated in Item 6(c)(3)B on Exhibit A.

                      (4) STOCK PLANS. The Employee shall be entitled to
                  immediate vesting of all stock options and other stock,
                  phantom stock, stock appreciation rights or similar
                  arrangements in which he participates. Notwithstanding any
                  plan provisions to the effect that rights under any such plan
                  terminate upon termination of employment, the Employee shall
                  be given the longer of 90 days after the Date of Termination,
                  or the remaining period provided in the grant, to realize or
                  exercise all rights or options provided under such plans.

                      (5) MEDICAL AND LIFE INSURANCE. The Company shall maintain
                  in full force and effect for the Employee's continued benefit
                  until the earlier of the anniversary listed in Item 6(c)(5)A
                  on Exhibit A of the Date of Termination or the calendar month
                  in which the Employee reaches the age of 67 all medical, life,
                  and accidental death and dismemberment insurance (including
                  conversion rights), with coverage and limits identical to
                  those in effect with respect to the Employee immediately prior
                  to the

                                       -6-

                  Change in Control. If the Employee is a participant in the
                  Company's Executive Committee Life Insurance Program, the
                  Company shall pay the premium for the Employee on such
                  insurance for a period ending the earlier of the period listed
                  in Item 6(c)(5)B on Exhibit A after the Date of Termination or
                  the calendar month in which the Employee reaches the age of
                  67, plus an additional amount to the Employee equal to the
                  Employee's projected federal, state, county and municipal
                  income taxes on the premiums so paid, which projected taxes
                  shall be calculated at the highest marginal tax rates. For the
                  sole purpose of determining the Employee's eligibility to
                  participate in the Company's medical, life, and accidental
                  death and dismemberment insurance plans, the Employee shall be
                  considered to be on a paid leave of absence as long as he/she
                  is receiving benefits under this Agreement.

                              In lieu of the benefits provided to Employee under
                  this subparagraph 6(c)(5) for medical insurance, within six
                  months after the Date of Termination, the Employee may
                  irrevocably elect in writing to receive a lump sum cash
                  payment. The payment will equal the Company's current cost to
                  provide the medical insurance benefits over the remaining
                  period (without a present value reduction). The amount payable
                  under this paragraph shall be paid by the Company to the
                  Employee on or before the 14th day following the receipt by
                  the Company of the writing from the Employee.

                       (6) EXECUTIVE SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN. The
                  following shall apply for purposes of calculating the
                  Employee's benefits under the FirstMerit Corporation Executive
                  Supplemental Retirement Plan (the "SERP"):

                              (i) for purposes of calculating the Employee's
                  Monthly Retirement Income (as defined in the SERP) under
                  Sections 4.01 and 4.02 of the SERP and for purposes of
                  determining the Employee's vested Monthly Retirement Income
                  under Section 4.05 of the SERP, the Employee's Years of
                  Service (as defined in the SERP) shall be increased by the
                  Employee's Protection Period (as hereinafter defined);

                              (ii) for purposes of calculating the Employee's
                  Monthly Retirement Income under Section 4.02 of the SERP, the
                  Employee's Attained Age (as defined in the SERP) shall be
                  increased by the Employee's Protection Period (as hereinafter
                  defined); and

                              (iii) the Employee's Average Monthly Earnings for
                  purposes of the SERP shall be deemed to be equal to the total
                  of (A) the highest, monthly base salary earned by the Employee
                  during the 24 months immediately preceding the Change in
                  Control and (B) the incentive compensation payment the
                  Employee would receive if payout was made at the "target"
                  percentage for the Employee under the Company's Executive
                  Incentive Plan in the year of Employee's Date of Termination
                  divided by 12.

                                       -7-

<PAGE>   8

                              The terms of this subparagraph (6) shall supersede
                  any contrary provisions of the SERP and any membership
                  agreement executed between the Company and the Employee in
                  connection with the Employee's participation in the SERP,
                  unless expressly provided otherwise in such membership
                  agreement. The Employee's SERP benefit, calculated using the
                  provisions of subparagraphs 6(i), (ii) and (iii) above, is
                  assumed to commence on the earliest date upon which the
                  Employee is eligible to retire under the SERP for purposes of
                  determining the Actuarial Equivalent (as defined in the SERP)
                  of such benefit. Further, for purposes of this subparagraph
                  (6), the Employee's Protection Period is 24 months.

                      (7) Outplacement Fees. For a period not to exceed one year
                  after the Date of Termination, the Company will pay the
                  reasonable expenses associated with outplacement training of
                  the Employee by a professional placement firm and in an amount
                  not to exceed that listed as Item 6(c)(6) on Exhibit A.

                  7. OVERALL LIMITATION ON BENEFITS. Notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if the compensation and benefits
provided to the Employee pursuant to or under this Agreement, either alone or
with other compensation and benefits received by the Employee, would constitute
"parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code (the "Code"), or the regulations adopted or proposed thereunder, then the
compensation and benefits payable pursuant to or under this Agreement shall be
reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion thereof shall be subject to
the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code. The Employee or any other
party entitled to receive the compensation or benefits hereunder may request a
determination as to whether the compensation or benefit would constitute a
parachute payment and, if requested, such determination shall be made by
independent tax counsel selected by the Company and approved by the party
requesting such determination. In the event that any reduction is required under
this paragraph 7, the Company shall consult with the Employee in determining the
order in which compensation and benefits shall be reduced.

                  8. LEGAL FEES. The Company shall pay all legal fees and
expenses incurred by the Employee in enforcing any right or benefit provided by
this Agreement.

                  9. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall continue in effect
until the earliest to occur of the following:

                      (1) the last day of the month which is the number of
                  months listed in Item 9(1) on Exhibit A, after a Change in
                  Control occurs; or

                      (2) the date as of which the Employee is removed or
                  resigns from his then titled position immediately before his
                  removal or resignation, unless such removal or resignation
                  occurs after a Change of Control and is for other than Cause,
                  Disability, Retirement or death, in the case of removal, or
                  for Good Reason, in the case of

                                       -8-

                  resignation.

                  In the event that the Employee becomes entitled to the
compensation or benefits provided in paragraph 6 of this Agreement before an
event of termination occurs as provided in this paragraph 9, such compensation
and benefits shall continue for the period provided in paragraph 6
notwithstanding the occurrence of such event of termination.

                  10. NOTICE. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and
all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and

registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, provided that all
notices to the Company shall be directed to the attention of the President of
the Company with a copy to the Secretary of the Company, or to such other
address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance
herewith, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon
receipt.

                  11. MISCELLANEOUS. No provisions of this Agreement may be
modified, waived, or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is
agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and such officer as may be
specifically designated by the Board of Directors of the Company. No waiver by
either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or
compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by
such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar provisions or conditions at
the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

                  This Agreement is intended to replace and supersede the
existing Termination Agreement between the parties which prior agreement shall
become invalid as of the date of signing of this Agreement. No agreements or
representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the
subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set
forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not
supersede or in any way limit the rights, duties of obligations you may have
under any other written agreement with the Company.

                  12. Validity. The validity or unenforceability of any
provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
any other provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and
effect. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio.

                  13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original by all of
which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
