         the parties to such increased coverage shall continue to be subject to
         the terms of this Agreement.

III.     BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION RIGHTS

         The Insured (or assignee) shall have the right and power to designate a
         beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive the Insured's share of the
         proceeds payable upon the death of the Insured, and to elect and change
         a payment option for such beneficiary, subject to any right or interest
         the Bank may have in such proceeds, as provided in this Agreement.

IV.      PREMIUM PAYMENT METHOD

         The Bank shall pay an amount equal to the planned premiums and any
         other premium payments that might become necessary to keep the policy
         in force.

V.       TAXABLE BENEFIT

         Annually the Insured will receive a taxable benefit equal to the
         assumed cost of insurance as required by the Internal Revenue Service.
         The Bank (or its administrator) will report to the Insured the amount
         of imputed income each year on Form W-2 or its equivalent.

VI.      DIVISION OF DEATH PROCEEDS

         Subject to Paragraphs VII and IX herein, the division of the death
         proceeds of the policy is as follows:

         A.       Should the Insured die before his sixty-fifth (65th) birthday,
                  the Insured's beneficiary(ies), designated in accordance with
                  Paragraph III, shall be entitled to an amount equal to One
                  Million Four Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars and No/00ths ($
                  1,440,000.00) or the net at risk insurance portion of the
                  proceeds, whichever amount is less. The net at risk insurance
                  portion is the total proceeds less the cash value of the
                  policy.

         B.       Should the Insured die on or subsequent to his sixty-fifth
                  (65th) birthday, the Insured's beneficiary(ies), designated in
                  accordance with Paragraph III, shall be entitled to an amount
                  equal to One Million Dollars and No/00ths ($ 1,000,000.00) or
                  the net at risk insurance portion of the proceeds, whichever
                  amount is less. The net at risk insurance portion is the total
                  proceeds less the cash value of the policy.

         C.       The Bank shall be entitled to the remainder of such proceeds.

         D.       The Bank and the Insured (or assignees) shall share in any
                  interest due on the death proceeds on a pro rata basis as the
                  proceeds due each respectively bears to the total proceeds,
                  excluding any such interest.

<PAGE>

VII.     DIVISION OF THE CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF THE POLICY

         The Bank shall at all times be entitled to an amount equal to the
         policy's cash value, as that term is defined in the policy contract,
         less any policy loans and unpaid interest or cash withdrawals
         previously incurred by the Bank and any applicable surrender charges.
         Such cash value shall be determined as of the date of surrender or
         death as the case may be.

VIII.    RIGHTS OF PARTIES WHERE POLICY ENDOWMENT OR ANNUITY ELECTION EXISTS

         In the event the policy involves an endowment or annuity element, the
         Bank's right and interest in any endowment proceeds or annuity
         benefits, on expiration of the deferment period, shall be determined
         under the provisions of this Agreement by regarding such endowment
         proceeds or the commuted value of such annuity benefits as the policy's
         cash value. Such endowment proceeds or annuity benefits shall be
         considered to be like death proceeds for the purposes of division under
         this Agreement.

IX.      TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

         This Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of any one of the
         following:

         1.       The Insured shall be discharged from employment with the Bank
                  for cause. The term for "cause" shall mean any of the
                  following that result in an adverse effect on the Bank: (i)
                  gross negligence or gross neglect; (ii) the commission of a
                  felony or gross misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, fraud,
                  or dishonesty; (iii) the willful violation of any law, rule,
                  or regulation (other than a traffic violation or similar
                  offense); (iv) an intentional failure to perform stated
                  duties; or (v) a breach of fiduciary duty involving personal
                  profit.

         2.       Surrender, lapse, or other termination of the Policy by the
                  Bank.

         Upon such termination, the Insured (or assignee) shall have a fifteen
         (15) day option to receive from the Bank an absolute assignment of the
         policy in consideration of a cash payment to the Bank, whereupon this
         Agreement shall terminate. Such cash payment referred to hereinabove
         shall be the greater of:

1.       The Bank's share of the cash value of the policy on the date of such
         assignment, as defined in this Agreement; or

2.       The amount of the premiums which have been paid by the Bank prior to
         the date of such assignment.

                                       3

<PAGE>

         If, within said fifteen (15) day period, the Insured fails to exercise
         said option, fails to procure the entire aforestated cash payment, or
         dies, then the option shall terminate, and the Insured (or assignee)
         agrees that all of the Insured's rights, interest and claims in the
         policy shall terminate as of the date of the termination of this
         Agreement.

         The Insured expressly agrees that this Agreement shall constitute
         sufficient written notice to the Insured of the Insured's option to
         receive an absolute assignment of the policy as set forth herein.

         Except as provided above, this Agreement shall terminate upon
         distribution of the death benefit proceeds in accordance with Paragraph
         VI above.

X.       INSURED'S OR ASSIGNEE'S ASSIGNMENT RIGHTS

         The Insured may not, without the written consent of the Bank, assign to
         any individual, trust or other organization, any right, title or
         interest in the subject policy nor any rights, options, privileges or
         duties created under this Agreement.

XI.      AGREEMENT BINDING UPON THE PARTIES

         This Agreement shall bind the Insured and the Bank, their heirs,
         successors, personal representatives and assigns.

XII.     ERISA PROVISIONS

         The following provisions are part of this Agreement and are intended to
         meet the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
         1974 ("ERISA"):

         A.       NAMED FIDUCIARY AND PLAN ADMINISTRATOR.

                  The "Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator" of this
                  Endorsement Method Split Dollar Agreement shall be Monterey
                  County Bank until resignation or removal by the Board of
                  Directors. As Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator, the Bank
                  shall be responsible for the management, control, and
                  administration of this Split Dollar Plan as established
                  herein. The Named Fiduciary may delegate to others certain
                  aspects of the management and operation responsibilities of
                  the Plan, including the employment of advisors and the
                  delegation of any ministerial duties to qualified individuals.

         B.       FUNDING POLICY.

                  The funding policy for this Split Dollar Plan shall be to
                  maintain the subject policy in force by paying, when due, all
                  premiums required.

                                       4

<PAGE>

         C.       BASIS OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS.

                  Direct payment by the Insurer is the basis of payment of
                  benefits under this Agreement, with those benefits in turn
                  being based on the payment of premiums as provided in this
                  Agreement.

         D.       CLAIM PROCEDURES.

                  Claim forms or claim information as to the subject policy can
                  be obtained by contacting The Benefit Marketing Group, Inc.
                  (770-952-1529). When the Named Fiduciary has a claim which may
                  be covered under the provisions described in the insurance
                  policy, they should contact the office named above, and they
                  will either complete a claim form and forward it to an
                  authorized representative of the Insurer or advise the named
                  Fiduciary what further requirements are necessary. The Insurer
                  will evaluate and make a decision as to payment. If the claim
                  is payable, a benefit check will be issued in accordance with
                  the terms of this Agreement.

         In the event that a claim is not eligible under the policy, the Insurer
         will notify the Named Fiduciary of the denial pursuant to the
         requirements under the terms of the policy. If the Named Fiduciary is
         dissatisfied with the denial of the claim and wishes to contest such
         claim denial, they should contact the office named above and they will
         assist in making inquiry to the Insurer. All objections to the
         Insurer's actions should be in writing and submitted to the office
         named above for transmittal to the Insurer.

XIII.    GENDER

         Whenever in this Agreement words are used in the masculine or neuter
         gender, they shall be read and construed as in the masculine, feminine
         or neuter gender, whenever they should so apply.

XIV.     INSURANCE COMPANY NOT A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT

         The Insurer shall not be deemed a party to this Agreement, but will
         respect the rights of the parties as herein developed upon receiving an
         executed copy of this Agreement. Payment or other performance in
         accordance with the policy provisions shall fully discharge the Insurer
         for any and all liability.

XV.      CHANGE OF CONTROL

         Change of Control shall be deemed to be the cumulative transfer of more
         than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Bank from the date
         of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, transfers on
         account of deaths or gifts, transfers between family members, or
         transfers to a qualified retirement plan

                                       5

<PAGE>

         maintained by the Bank shall not be considered in determining
         whether there has been a Change of Control. Upon a Change of
         Control, if the Insured's employment is subsequently terminated,
         except for cause, then the Insured shall be one hundred percent
         (100%) vested in the benefits promised in this Agreement and,
         therefore, upon the death of the Insured, the Insured's
         beneficiary(ies) (designated in accordance with Paragraph III) shall
         receive the death benefit provided herein as if the Insured had died
         while employed by the Bank [See Subparagraphs VI (A) & (B)].

XVI.     AMENDMENT OR REVOCATION

         It is agreed by and between the parties hereto that, during the
         lifetime of the Insured, this Agreement may be amended or revoked at
         any time or times, in whole or in part, by the mutual written consent
         of the Insured and the Bank.

XVII.    EFFECTIVE DATE

         The Effective Date of this Agreement shall be October 12, 1999.

XVIII.   SEVERABILITY AND INTERPRETATION

         If a provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
         unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nonetheless be
         enforceable according to their terms. Further, in the event that any
         provision is held to be over broad as written, such provision shall be
         deemed amended to narrow its application to the extent necessary to
         make the provision enforceable according to law and enforced as
         amended.

XIX.     APPLICABLE LAW

         The validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by
         the laws of the State of California.

XX.      SUPERSEDE AND REPLACE

         The parties are currently parties to a COLLATERAL SECURITY ASSIGNMENT
         date the 6th day of June, 1991. This ENDORSEMENT METHOD SPLIT DOLLAR
         AGREEMENT and the benefits provided hereby shall supersede and replace
         the COLLATERAL SECURITY ASSIGNMENT and the benefits provided thereby.

                             SEALED AIR CORPORATION
                     PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION PROGRAM
                (AS ADOPTED EFFECTIVE FOR THE 2000 FISCAL YEAR)

    In order to entitle Sealed Air Corporation (the "Corporation") to deduct for
U.S. income tax purposes the compensation expense resulting from certain
performance-based compensation provided to certain officers and other eligible
employees (as defined below) pursuant to awards under the Corporation's
Contingent Stock Plan or under annual cash bonus arrangements, the following are
the terms under which such awards may be granted to such eligible employees as
provided in Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) and the regulations thereunder,
as the same may be amended from time to time ("Section 162(m)"):

I. ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES:

    The class of employees eligible for awards under this program ("eligible
employees") consists of the chief executive officer of the Corporation, the
other four most highly compensated executive officers of the Corporation, and
other officers and key employees of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries
selected by the committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") that is
authorized by the Board of Directors to establish and administer performance
goals under this program. The Committee will be comprised of "outside directors"
as that term is defined in Section 162(m).

II. PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS OF COMMON STOCK:

    Performance-based awards of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock under
the Contingent Stock Plan of Sealed Air Corporation can be made based upon
achievement of pre-established objective goals during a performance period
(which may be the calendar year) established by the Committee, consistent with
the requirements of Section 162(m). If such goals are achieved, then an eligible
employee may be granted one or more awards of Common Stock under the Contingent
Stock Plan during the 12-month period following the performance period in an
aggregate amount up to the pre-established award level.

    The maximum amount of performance-based awards made in shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock under the Contingent Stock Plan to any eligible
employee under this program during any 12-month period may not exceed two-tenths
of 1% (0.2%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation's Common
Stock at the beginning of such period. The Committee retains the sole and
exclusive discretion to set pre-established award levels for awards under the
Corporation's Contingent Stock Plan at an amount less than the maximum level
specified in the prior sentence and to reduce (including a reduction to zero)
any award to be made in shares of Common Stock under the Contingent Stock Plan
that is otherwise payable under the program.

III. PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS OF CASH:

    Performance-based awards of cash under the Corporation's annual cash bonus
arrangements can be made to eligible employees based upon achievement of
pre-established objective goals during a calendar year performance period. If
such goals are achieved, the eligible employee may be granted an annual cash
bonus for such year in an amount of up to one percent (1%) of the Corporation's
net earnings for that fiscal year, provided, however, that the Committee in its
sole and exclusive discretion may reduce (including a reduction to zero) any
award to be made in cash to any eligible employee that is otherwise payable
under the program for such year. At the sole and exclusive discretion of the
Committee, an annual cash bonus may be paid although such goals have not been
achieved if the eligible employee dies or becomes disabled during the
performance period or a "change in control" (as defined in the Contingent Stock
Plan) occurs during the performance period.

<PAGE>

IV. PRE-ESTABLISHED OBJECTIVE GOALS:

    Performance-based awards under this program will require attainment of
objective, pre-established goals based on one or more of the following criteria:
growth in net sales, operating profit, net earnings, measures of cash flow,
measures of expense control, earnings before interest and taxes (commonly called
EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (commonly
called EBITDA), earnings per share, successful completion of strategic
acquisitions, joint ventures or other transactions, or any combination of the
foregoing goals. Pre-established goals and award levels will be established by
the Committee in writing during the first 90 days of the performance period (or
during the first 25% of the performance period if the performance period is less
than a year), provided that the outcome is substantially uncertain at the time
the Committee establishes the goal. Except as specified in this program,
performance goals may not be changed once set. No stock grants or cash payments
will be made until the Committee has certified that the performance goals have
been met.

V. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS:

A. The limits on awards made in the Corporation's Common Stock and in cash are
    cumulative, that is, the Corporation may grant to any eligible employee in
    any year awards up to the specified limits both for Common Stock and for
    cash. While the limits are annual, performance-based awards need not be made
    every year, and the Committee shall have the discretion to determine the
    intervals between successive performance-based awards.

B.  In the event of any change in the Corporation's capitalization, such as
    through a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger or
    consolidation, appropriate adjustments will be made by the Board of
    Directors to the maximum amount of performance-based awards that may be made
    in shares of the Corporation's Common Stock during any 12-month period to an
    eligible employee, to the pre-established award level for any award to be
    made in shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, to the amount of any
    performance-based award to be made in shares of the Corporation's Common
    Stock that has been approved by the Committee before such change occurred
    but not yet made as of such change and the purchase price per share for the
    shares subject to such award, and to any pre-established goal that is based
    upon the Corporation's capitalization, such as earnings per share. For the
    purpose of determining whether a goal has been attained, the Committee may
    also disregard any change in accounting standards required by the Financial
    Accounting Standards Board that is adopted after a performance goal has been
    established.

C.  The Committee shall be entitled at its discretion to approve awards under
    the Contingent Stock Plan, cash bonuses or compensation under any other
    compensation plan or arrangement that does not meet the requirements of
    Section 162(m) and thus may be partly or fully non-deductible by the
    Corporation for U.S. income tax purposes.

D. Except as provided above and subject to the stockholder approval requirements
    of Section 162(m), the Committee shall have complete power and authority to
    amend, suspend or terminate any or all terms of the performance-based
    compensation program, except that it may not alter performance goals or
    increase pre-established award levels once they have been established for a
    performance period. The Committee shall have full authority to administer
    the performance-based compensation program and to interpret the program's
    terms and establish rules for the administration of the program, although
    the Committee may consider recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer
    of the Corporation or from directors who are not members of the Committee.
    The Committee's determinations under the program shall be final.

E.  An eligible employee's rights and interests under the program may not be
    assigned or transferred by the eligible employee. To the extent an eligible
    employee acquires a right to receive an award under the program, such right
    shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the

    Corporation. Nothing contained in the program shall be deemed to create a
    trust of any kind or any fiduciary relationship between the Corporation and
    an eligible employee. Designation as an eligible employee under the program
    shall not entitle the employee to continued employment with or, if
    applicable, continuation as an officer of the Corporation or any of its
    subsidiaries.

F.  The program shall be construed and governed in all respects under the laws
    of the United States to the extent applicable and, to the extent such laws
    are not applicable, under the laws of the State of New Jersey.

    The foregoing terms of the performance-based compensation program shall
become effective as of the Corporation's 2000 fiscal year, subject to the
approval by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast by the stockholders
of the Corporation at the 2000 annual meeting of stockholders.
