         4.01 NORMAL RETIREMENT: The Participants in this Determination shall
receive the following Supplemental Pension payable at Normal or Late Retirement:

                  (a)      The Normal Retirement Benefit otherwise payable to
                           the Participant under the Pension Plan computed
                           without reduction for any maximum contribution,
                           benefit or compensation limitations imposed by ERISA

                           Supplemental Pension calculation purposes shall mean
                           the average of the highest three years of the full
                           amount of the Participant's salary and bonus
                           compensation for the five-year period preceding his
                           or her Retirement Date.

                  (b)      The Supplemental Pension set forth in Section 4.01(a)
                           shall be reduced by any benefits payable to the

unless the Participant or Beneficiary has elected a different form under this
Determination. Payment of Supplemental Pension benefits hereunder shall commence
at the same time as the Participant's or Beneficiary's benefits commence under
the Pension Plan, and shall be subject to the same reductions for commencement
of payments prior to Normal Retirement Date as apply to the recipient's benefits
under the Pension Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant dies
while employed, his or her Beneficiary may elect to receive in a lump sum the
actuarial present value (determined pursuant to the assumptions set forth in the
Pension Plan) of the Participant's Supplemental Pension under this
Determination.

ARTICLE V.  PARTICIPANTS.

The Committee designates as Participants for purposes of this Determination any
Employee who is classified as salary grade 25 or above for compensation purposes
as of the date he or she becomes eligible for benefits under this Determination

Determination to the extent that such other Determination provides for the
Supplemental Pension set forth above.

The Participant shall become vested in the Supplemental Pension payable pursuant
to this Determination upon his or her termination of employment by reason of 1)
retirement on his or her Normal Retirement Date, 2) retirement on his or her
Early or Disability Retirement Date or 3) death while an Employee. Nothing in

Corporation on October 20, 1999, to be effective for Participants whose last day
worked for purposes of the Pension Plan is on or after December 31, 1999.

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual
covenants contained herein, the Company, the Banks, the Administrative
Agent and the Co-Agents hereby agree as follows:

          1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized
terms which are defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein
defined.

          2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. (a) Subsection 1.1 of the
Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following definitions in proper
alphabetical order:

          "Holdings Senior Subordinated Note Indenture": the Indenture to
     be entered into by Holdings and, if applicable, certain of its
     Subsidiaries in connection with the issuance of the Holdings Senior
     Subordinated Notes, together with all instruments and other agreements
     entered into by Holdings or such Subsidiaries in connection therewith,

          (b) Section 4 of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding the
following new subsections 4.18 and 4.19 at the end thereof:

          4.18 Seniority. On and after the Holdings Senior Subordinated
     Note Issuance Date (a) the obligations of Holdings under each Credit
     Document to which it is a party will constitute "Senior Indebtedness"
     (however denominated) of Holdings under and as defined in the Holdings
     Senior Subordinated Note Indenture and (b) the obligations of the
     Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor under each Credit Document to
     which it is a party constitute "Senior Indebtedness" (however
     denominated) of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case
     may be, under and as defined in the Holdings Senior Subordinated Note
     Indenture, if applicable.

     2000, of the Company's computer systems and equipment containing
     embedded microchips, and the testing of all such systems and
     equipment, as so reprogrammed, has been completed. The testing of all
     such systems and equipment, as so reprogrammed, will be accomplished
     in a manner and by a date that could not reasonably be expected to
     result in a Material Adverse Effect. The cost to the Company of any
     such reprogramming and testing and of the reasonably foreseeable
     consequences of year 2000 to the Company (including, without

     equipment) could not reasonably be expected to result in a Default or
     a Material Adverse Effect. Except for such of the reprogramming
     referred to in the preceding sentence as may be necessary, the
     computer and management information systems of the Company and its
     Subsidiaries "will be and, with ordinary course upgrading and
     maintenance, will continue to be, sufficient to permit the Company to
     conduct its business without Material Adverse Effect. The foregoing
     representation shall be qualified (a) by the Company's disclosure with
     respect to year 2000 matters contained in the Company's Form 10-Q for
     the quarterly period ended September 30, 1999 and (b) as to the status
     of year 2000 matters with respect to third parties that, to the
     knowledge of the

                                     2

deleting the word "and" from the end of clause (f), (ii) deleting the

          if applicable, provided that such Guarantee Obligations are
          subordinated to the Obligations or the Subsidiary Guarantees, as
          the case may be, to the same extent as the obligations of
          Holdings in respect of the Holdings Senior Subordinated Notes are
          subordinated to the obligations of Holdings under the Credit
          Documents to which it is a party.

          under paragraph (a) of Section 8.

          (e) Section 8 of the Credit Agreement is amended by adding the

          unsecured debt securities issued in a public offering or a Rule
          144A transaction and (v) the Holdings Senior Subordinated Notes
          contain subordination provisions satisfactory to the

          the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes
          to exceed the sum of $150,000,000 plus the available unutilized
          amount under clause (f) of Section 7.15. Neither Holdings nor any

          the third anniversary of the Holdings Senior Subordinated Note
          Issuance Date, (II) no such redemption may be made if a Default
          or Event of Default exists at the time thereof or would exist

          otherwise change, or consent or agree to any amendment,
          modification, waiver or other change to, any of the terms of the
          Holdings Senior Subordinated Notes (other than any such
          amendment, modification, waiver or other change that (i) would
          extend the maturity or reduce the amount of any payment of
          principal thereof or reduce the rate or extend any date for
          payment of interest thereon and (ii) does not involve the payment
          of a consent fee), or (c) designate any Indebtedness (other than
          obligations of the Loan Parties pursuant to the Credit Documents)
          as "Designated Senior Indebtedness" for the purposes of the

          subordinated to the Obligations or the obligations of Holdings
          and the Subsidiary Guarantors, if applicable, under the Credit
          Documents, as the case may be, as provided in the Holdings Senior
          Subordinated Note Indenture, or any Loan Party, any Affiliate of
