               (ii) Fifty percent (50%) of an annual Award shall be deemed
          Earned on December 31st of the calendar year for which the Award is

             25%              200%          $        $         $

          In addition, the Company retains the right to adjust the EPS targets
so that the year-over-year EPS targets reasonably and fairly approximate the
growth rates set forth in the left-hand column. Except as otherwise set forth in
this Plan, any Awards subject to this clause (ii) which are not Earned as set
forth above shall be automatically cancelled.

          (d) Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if a Participant's employment by the Company is terminated for any

Awards that are not Vested and Earned as of the date of such termination shall
be forfeited as of the date of such termination.

          (e) Restrictions. Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of by any Participant other than by
will or the laws of descent and distribution.

     6. General Provisions.

          (a) Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Plan and the granting of,
and payments with respect to, Awards, and the other obligations of the Company
under the Plan and any Award Agreement or other agreement shall be subject to
all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and to such
approvals by any regulatory or governmental authority or agency as may be
required.

          (b) No Right To Continued Employment or Service. Nothing in this Plan
or in any Award granted or any Award Agreement or other agreement entered into
pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Participant the right to continue in the
employ or service of the Company or to be entitled to any remuneration or
benefits not set forth in the Plan or such Award Agreement or other agreement or
to interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate such
Participant's employment or service.

          (c) Withholding Taxes. At the time the Company makes any reduction of
a Stock Loan or payment relating to any Award, the Company may withhold from
such payment the full amount of any federal, state and local tax withholding and
any other employment taxes and any medicare or FICA required to be withheld or
otherwise deducted.

          (d) Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Company may at any time
and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or
in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the other provisions of the
Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, no amendment shall affect adversely any
of the rights of any Participant, without such Participant's consent, under any
Award theretofore granted under the Plan. If the Plan is terminated, any
outstanding Award shall continue to be administered in accordance with its terms
and the terms of the Plan in effect immediately prior to such termination.

          (e) Participant Rights. No Participant shall have any claim to be
granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of
treatment for Participants.

          (f) Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to constitute an
"unfunded" plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet
made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any
Award shall give any

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of
the Company.

          (g) Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions
taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois
without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

          (h) Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective upon the Effective
Date.

curtail or cancel such customer's business relationship with the Company.

          (g) If the Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any
of the provisions contained in this Section (the "Restrictive Covenants"), the
Company shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and
remedies shall be independent of the others and severally enforceable, and each
of which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies
available to the Company under law or in equity:

               (i) the right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants
specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, it being agreed
that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause
irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages would not provide an
adequate remedy to the Company; and

               (ii) the right and remedy to require the Executive to account for
and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals,
increments or other benefits derived or received by the Executive as the result
of any action constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.

     5. Miscellaneous.

          (a) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms "Cause",
"Without Cause", "Good Reason", "Change Of Control" and "Disability" shall have
the meaning set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

                                                                               5

          (b) Certain Additional Payments by the Company. The Company hereby
agrees to the terms and conditions of Exhibit B attached hereto.

          (c) Successors; Binding Agreement. In the event of any merger,
consolidation or transfer of assets, the provision of this Agreement shall bind
and inure to the benefit of the surviving or resulting corporation, or the
corporation to which such assets have been transferred, as the case may be. The
Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement, to expressly assume and
agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that
the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken
place. The Company's failure to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness
of any such succession shall entitle the Executive to terminate his employment
hereunder for Good Reason.

          (d) Attorney's Fees. All reasonable legal fees and costs incurred by
the Executive in connection with the resolution of any dispute or controversy
under or in connection with this Agreement shall be reimbursed by the Company
promptly upon the Executive's incurrence thereof plus interest at ten percent
(10.0%) per annum from the date of any such incurrence; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be obligated to make such payment where the dispute or
controversy is finally determined in favor of the Company. Also, until paid, all
past due amounts required to be paid by the Company hereunder shall bear
interest at a rate of ten percent (10.0%) per annum.

          (e) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, construed,
interpreted, and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State
of Illinois.

                                                                               6
