        F. The Company now desires to amend the Plan in certain respects as
hereinafter set forth.

AMENDMENT

        THEREFORE, the Company hereby amends the Plan, effective as specifically
provided herein, as follows:

        3. Section 3 of the Plan, relating to eligible employees, is hereby
amended, effective January 1, 2002, by the addition of the following sentence to
the end of said Section:

        "Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, eligible employees are limited

        Company and/or a Subsidiary, and whose annual compensation is in excess
        of eighty-five thousand dollars ($85,000) (or such amount as adjusted
        for cost-of-living increases under Section 414(q) of the Code)."

        4. Section 6 of the Plan, relating to accounts and vesting, is hereby
amended, effective January 1, 2002, by amending the second paragraph of said
Section to be and read as follows:

        "Subject to the claims of the creditors of the Company, a Participant
        shall at all times have a nonforfeitable (vested) right to his account
        under the Plan with respect to amounts attributable to his salary
        reduction elections; provided, however, amounts attributable to Company
        contributions, in a given Plan Year, shall be forfeitable until they
        become nonforfeitable (vested) on December 31st of such Plan Year;
        provided such Participant is employed by the Company and/or a Subsidiary
        as of such date."

        5. Section 7 of the Plan, relating to matching contributions, is hereby
amended, effective January 1, 2002, to be and read as follows:

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

        "(a)  Employer Match. If a Participant elects to make elective deferrals
              pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall match such deferrals in
              the same manner as if such elective deferrals had been made under
              the Code Section 401(k) plan of the Company, but such match shall
              only be made with respect to elective deferrals that do not exceed
              the maximum amount that such Participant could have elected to
              defer under the Code Section 401(k) plan of the Company up to the
              limits under Code Section 402(g) for the Plan Year and after
              taking into account the actual contributions to such Code Section
              401(k) plan. The Participant must be employed on the last day of
              the Plan Year to receive such matching contribution.

              contributions under this Section for any Plan Year or any portion
              thereof.

        (b)   Additional Employer Contributions. The Company may make additional
              matching contributions in such percentage as the Board may
              determine from time to time, or on behalf of such Participants as
              the Board may, in its sole discretion, determine from time to
              time. The Company shall have no obligation to make such matching
              contribution nor shall the fact that matching contributions are
              made in one Plan Year create an obligation to make matching
              contributions at any other time or to any other Participant.

        6. Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, the Plan shall be and
remain unchanged.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company, by its duly authorized officer, has
caused this Amendment to be executed on the ____ day of ________________, 2001.

awards nor shall the fact that discretionary awards may be made in one Plan Year
create any obligation to make discretionary awards at any other time or to any
other Participant.

  I.  PURPOSE

          The purpose of this Plan is to supplement an employee's pension
payable under the Company's Pension and Retirement Plan to provide Monthly
Retirement Income which represents an appropriate percentage of Average total

Company are a significant part of Average Total Monthly Pay.

 II.  ELIGIBILITY

          An employee whose effective date of retirement is after August 1, 1977
will participate in this Plan.

      1.  To the extent of the benefits provided herein if he is eligible for an

          Incapability, Early or Optional Retirement provisions) of the
          Company's Pension and Retirement Plan; or

      2.  To the extent deemed appropriate by the Compensation and Benefits
          Committee or its delegate if he is eligible for a reduced monthly
          pension payable under Section IV (the Early or Optional Retirement
          provisions) of the Company's Pension and Retirement Plan.

III.  AMOUNT OF SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT INCOME

      A.  The amount of monthly supplemental retirement income payable to an
          employee will be the excess, if any, of (1) the employee's Monthly
          Retirement Income, as determined under paragraph B of this Section,
          over (2) the employee's monthly pension under the Company's Pension
          and Retirement Plan, as determined under paragraph C of this Section.

      B.  The amount of an employee's Monthly Retirement Income will be Average
          Total Monthly Pay multiplied by the applicable percentage factor from

the percentage factor will be interpolated from the above.

================================================================================

          The amount determined above may not be greater than 50% of Average
Total Monthly Pay.

      C.  The amount of an employee's monthly pension taken into account under
          paragraph A of this Section will be the benefit, exclusive of any
          supplement for Incapability Retirement, determined without regard to
          the limitations imposed under paragraphs A(2)(b)(iii) and A(2)(b)(v)
          and D of Section IX of the Company's Pension and Retirement Plan and
          prior to any adjustment on account of (1) Early or Optional
          Retirement, (2) the Income-Leveling option, (3) any spouse or survivor
          benefit provision, or (4) benefits to which an employee is entitled
          from any other private organization or from, or under the law of, any
          foreign government.

      D.  If an employee's monthly pension under the Company's Pension and
          Retirement Plan is reduced in accordance with the Early or Optional
          Retirement provisions of that Plan, the same percentage reduction
          factor used in that Plan will be applied to the monthly supplemental
          retirement income determined under paragraph A of this Section.

      E.  If the limitation set forth in Section IX.A(2)(b)(iii) of the
          Company's Pension and Retirement Plan relating to any deferred
          Variable Compensation Award has been applied, effective January 1,
          1996, the amount of monthly supplemental retirement income payable to
          an employee under this Plan will include the amount of pension benefit
          attributable to the deferred Variable Compensation Award.

 IV.  PAYMENTS OF BENEFITS

      A.  Subject to paragraphs B and C below, an eligible employee will be
          entitled to monthly supplemental retirement income payments for the
          period beginning on the day after he retires under the Company's
          Pension and Retirement Plan and ending on the last day of the month in
          which he dies.

      B.  If the monthly supplemental retirement income is or becomes less than
          or equal to the minimum monthly payment amount fixed by the Board of
          Benefits and Pensions, the actuarial equivalent of all such remaining
          monthly payments shall be paid in a lump sum.

      C.  An eligible employee may irrevocably elect under rules prescribed by
          the Board of Benefits and Pensions to receive the actuarial equivalent
          of all or part of the monthly supplemental retirement income in a lump
          sum.

      D.  Except as otherwise provided, benefits under this Plan are determined
          based on the Plan in effect at the time of retirement.

  V.  DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL CONDITIONS

      A.  Definitions

          1.  All terms used in this Plan which are defined in the Company's
              Pension and Retirement Plan will have the same meaning for
              purposes of this Plan except as expressly provided herein.

          2.  (a) The term "Average Total Monthly Pay" means the higher of

                    (i)  total pay for the thirty-six consecutive calendar
                         months for which the employee's pay is the highest,
                         divided by 36; or

                                                                    EXHIBIT 10.3

                  (ii) average pay per month based on total pay over a number of
                       calendar years, and a fraction of total pay for a
                       calendar year if necessary, sufficient to obtain an
                       aggregate amount of service equivalent to three full
                       years. Such calendar years shall be selected beginning
                       with the calendar year in which average pay per month was
                       the highest and taking in turn calendar years of
                       successively lower average pay per month. A fraction of
                       total pay for a calendar year shall be calculated by
                       multiplying average pay per month for that year by the
                       number of months needed to yield an aggregate amount of
                       service equivalent to three full years. Only pay for the
                       120 calendar months up to and including the calendar
                       month in which the employee retires under the Company's
                       Pension and Retirement Plan will be taken into account in
                       computing Average Total Monthly Pay.

              (b) The term "pay" includes variable pay and awards under the
                  Variable Compensation Plan, the Incentive Compensation Plan
                  and former Dividend Unit Plan of the company or similar plans
                  of any of its affiliated companies, which are not forfeited,
                  but does not include (i) allowances in connection with
                  transfer of employment or termination of employment and other
                  special payments, or (ii) awards, pay under a gain sharing
                  program or payments under the Special Compensation Plan or
                  Stock Option Plan of the Company or similar plans of the
                  Company or any of its affiliated companies.

              (c) The value of an award under the Company's Variable
                  Compensation Plan, the Incentive Compensation Plan or former
                  Dividend Unit Plan for any calendar year will be prorated over
                  the length of an employee's service for that year which is
                  used in computing his benefit under this Plan to the extent
                  the award is attributable to such service. The value of an
                  award under the Variable Compensation Plan, or the Incentive
                  Compensation Plan will be the total award value approved by
                  the Compensation and Benefits Committee. The value of an award
                  under the former Dividend Unit Plan will be the value used by
                  the Compensation and Benefits Committee in determining the
                  number of dividend units awarded to an employee.

                  the former Dividend Unit Plan for the calendar year in which
                  his retirement is effective, his Average Total Monthly Pay

                  supplemental retirement income will be increased beginning the
                  month following that in which such award is granted.

              computing the amount of a pension and, to the extent prescribed in
              such Rules, recognition will be given for service which the

          will, if not in whole dollars, be increased to the next higher whole
          dollar. Such rounding shall be made after applying any applicable
          reduction factors.

      C.  Nonassignment

          No assignment of the rights and interests under this Plan will be
          permitted or recognized under any circumstances, nor shall such rights
          and interests be subject to attachment or other legal processes for
          debt.

      D.  Forfeiture of Benefits

          this Plan will be forfeited.
