                     EASTMAN UNFUNDED RETIREMENT INCOME PLAN

                            EASTMAN CHEMICAL COMPANY

                     EASTMAN UNFUNDED RETIREMENT INCOME PLAN

                                   ARTICLE ONE

                                 Purpose of Plan

1.1      This Plan implements the intent of providing retirement benefits by
means of both a funded and unfunded plan. This Plan is maintained primarily for
the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management
or highly compensated employees as described in Section 201(2) of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and is designed to provide retirement
benefits payable out of the general assets of the Company where benefits cannot
be paid under the Funded Plan because of Code Section 401(a)(17) or Code Section
415 and the provisions of the Funded Plan which implement such Sections and/or
because deferred compensation is ignored in defining compensation for purposes
of calculating benefits under the Funded Plan. In addition, this Plan will
assume the liabilities accrued under the Kodak Unfunded Retirement Income Plan
as of January 1, 1994, in respect of each Employee who is actively employed by
Eastman Chemical Company as of such date.

                                   ARTICLE TWO

                                   Definitions

2.1      "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from
         time to time.

2.2      "Company" shall mean Eastman Chemical Company, and any subsidiary
         and/or affiliated corporation which is a participating employer under
         the Funded Plan, except where a specific reference is made to a
         particular corporation.

2.3      "Compensation Committee" shall mean the Compensation and Management
         Development Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

2.4      "Effective Date" shall mean January 1, 1994.

2.5      "Employee" shall mean a participant in the Funded Plan.

2.6      "Funded Plan" shall mean the Eastman Retirement Assistance Plan.

2.7      "Plan" shall mean this Eastman Unfunded Retirement Income Plan.

                                  ARTICLE THREE

                                   Eligibility

3.1      All Employees eligible to receive a benefit from the Funded Plan shall
         be eligible to receive a benefit under this Plan if they have deferred
         any portion of their compensation otherwise payable by the Company
         pursuant to a duly authorized and executed deferred compensation

                                      126
<PAGE>   3
         agreement or plan and/or their benefit cannot be fully provided by the
         Funded Plan due to the benefit limitations imposed by Code Section
         401(a)(17) or Code Section 415.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR

                                    Benefits

4.1      Benefits due under this Plan shall be paid at such time or times
         following the Employee's retirement or death as the Company's Vice
         President, Human Resources determines with respect to Employees other
         than executive officers of the Company, and as the Compensation
         Committee determines with respect to Employees who are executive
         officers of the Company. In each case the method of payment shall be
         chosen in the sole discretion of the Company's Vice President, Human
         Resources or Compensation Committee, as applicable, from among the
         payment options available under the Funded Plan. If the Employee is
         deceased, the person who shall receive payment under this Plan (if
         any), shall be the same person who would be entitled to receive
         survivor benefits with respect to the Employee under the Funded Plan.

4.2      The benefit payable under this Plan shall be the amount of the
         retirement income benefit to which an Employee would otherwise be
         entitled under the Funded Plan,

         (i)      if deferred compensation were included in the Funded Plan's
                  definitions of "Participating Compensation" and "Retirement
                  Annual Salary Rate", at the time of deferral; and

         (ii)     if the provisions of Sections 415 and 401(a)(17) of the Code,
                  as expressed in the Funded Plan, were disregarded;

         less the combined amounts of the retirement income benefit to which the
         Employee is entitled under the Funded Plan and the retirement income
         benefit to which such Employee is entitled under the Eastman Excess
         Retirement Income Plan.

         The "retirement income benefit to which the Employee is entitled under
         the Funded Plan" generally means the benefits actually payable to an
         Employee under the Funded Plan; provided, however, that where the
         benefits actually payable to an Employee under the Funded Plan are
         reduced on account of a payment of all or a portion of an Employee's
         benefits to a third party on behalf of or with respect to an Employee
         (pursuant, for example, to a qualified domestic relations order), the
         "retirement income benefit to which the Employee is entitled under the
         Funded Plan" shall be deemed to mean the benefit that would have been
         actually payable but for such payment to a third party.

4.3      If an Employee's benefit from the Funded Plan is subject to an
         actuarial reduction because of the time when payment commences, his
         benefit from this Plan shall also be actuarially reduced.

                                      127
<PAGE>   4

4.4      The benefits payable under this Plan shall be paid by the Company each
         year out of its general assets. To the extent an Employee acquires the
         right to receive a payment under this Plan, such right shall be no
         greater than that of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. No
         amount payable under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, encumbered
         or subject to any legal process for the payment of any claim against an
         Employee.

4.5.     Not later than one (1) year before the Participant's termination of
         employment, a Participant may elect on forms provided by the Company to
         have the actuarial present value of his benefit under this Plan
         transferred to the Eastman Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. If the
         Participant makes such a timely election, then upon his termination of
         employment, neither the Participant or his beneficiaries shall have any
         further right to benefits of any kind under this Plan, and the payment
         of such benefits shall be governed solely by the Eastman Executive
         Deferred Compensation Plan. For purposes of this Section, the
         "actuarial present value" of the Participant's benefit under this Plan
         shall be calculated using the actuarial assumptions and methodologies
         that would be used if the benefits under this Plan were paid at the
         Participant's termination of employment as a single lump sum payment
         under the Funded Plan. Also, notwithstanding the first sentence of this
         Section, any election properly made under this Section 4.5 no later
         than December 31, 2000, shall be considered valid and binding.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                                 Administration

5.1      RESPONSIBILITY. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, the Vice
         President, Human Resources shall have total and exclusive
         responsibility to control, operate, manage and administer the plan in
         accordance with its terms.

5.2      AUTHORITY OF VICE PRESIDENT. The Vice President, Human Resources shall
         have all the authority that may be necessary or helpful to enable him
         to discharge his responsibilities with respect to the Plan. Without
         limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, such Vice President
         shall have the exclusive right: to interpret the Plan, to determine
         eligibility for participation in the Plan, to decide all question
         concerning eligibility for and the amount of benefits payable under the
         Plan, to construe any ambiguous provision of the Plan, to correct any
         default, to supply any omission, to reconcile any inconsistency, and to
         decide any and all questions arising in the administration,
         interpretation, and application of the Plan. However, see Section 5.5.

5.3      DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY. The Vice President, Human Resources shall have
         full discretionary authority in all matters related to the discharge of
         his responsibilities and the exercise of his authority under the Plan
         including, without limitation, his construction of the terms of the
         Plan and his determination of eligibility for participation and
         benefits under the Plan. It is the intent of Plan that the decisions of
         such Vice President and his action with respect to the Plan shall be
         final and binding upon all persons having or claiming to have any right
         or interest in or under the Plan and that no such decision or action
         shall be modified upon judicial review unless such decision or action
         is proven to be arbitrary or capricious. Notwithstanding anything to
         the contrary in this Article Five, the Vice President, Human Resources

                                      128
<PAGE>   5
         shall not have the authority to make any decision or resolve any issue
         that directly affects his own participation or benefits under this
         Plan, and instead such decision or resolution shall be reserved to the
         Compensation Committee.

5.4      DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY. The Vice President, Human Resources may
         delegate some or all of his authority under the Plan to any person or
         persons provided that any such delegation be in writing.

5.5      AUTHORITY OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. Under Section 4.1 of this Plan,
         decisions concerning payment of benefits to executive officers shall be
         made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and to
         that extent the provisions of 5.1 through 5.4 above shall be deemed to
         apply to such Committee.

5.6      IRREVOCABLE ELECTIONS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
         Plan, the Vice President, Human Resources and the Compensation
         Committee, as applicable, may expressly designate any decision under
         Section 4.1 concerning time of payment of benefits and/or form of
         payment as being irrevocable, and if such designation is made, such
         decision may be changed only with the consent of the Employee, or, if
         the Employee is deceased, the Employee's beneficiary under this Plan
         (if any). Once payments have commenced to an Employee or beneficiary
         under this Plan, the form of payment shall be considered irrevocable
         within the meaning of the immediately preceding sentence, regardless of
         whether it is designated as such by the Vice President, Human Resources
         or the Compensation Committee.

                                   ARTICLE SIX

                            Amendment and Termination

6.1      While the Company intends to maintain this Plan in conjunction with the
         Funded Plan under present business conditions, the Company, acting
         through the Compensation Committee, reserves the right to amend and/or
         terminate it at any time for whatever reasons it may deem advisable.

6.2      Notwithstanding the preceding Section, however, the Company hereby
         makes a contractual commitment to pay the benefits accrued under this
         Plan as of the date of such amendment or termination to the extent it
         is financially capable of meeting such obligation.

                                  ARTICLE SEVEN

                                  Miscellaneous

7.1      Nothing contained in this Plan shall be construed as a contract of
         employment between the Company and an Employee, or as a right of an
         Employee to be continued in the employment of the Company, or as a
         limitation of the right of the Company to discharge any of its
         Employees, with or without cause.

                            EASTMAN ESOP EXCESS PLAN

PREAMBLE.         The Eastman ESOP Excess Plan is intended to be an unfunded,
non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement for a select group of management
or highly compensated employees of Eastman Chemical Company ("the Company") and
certain of its subsidiaries, under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended, and shall be so interpreted. This Plan is designed to
provide benefits payable out of the Company's general assets where certain
benefits cannot be paid under the Eastman Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the
"ESOP") because of Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17) and the provisions
of the ESOP that implement that Section. This Eastman ESOP Excess Plan is
adopted effective February 2, 1995.

         indirectly, of 25% or more of the combined voting power of the
         outstanding securities of the Company ordinarily having the right to
         vote at the election of directors; provided, however, that the

         any corporation if, immediately following such acquisition, more than
         75% of the outstanding securities of the acquiring corporation
         ordinarily having the right to vote in the election of directors is
         beneficially owned by all or substantially all of those persons who,
         immediately prior to such acquisition, were the beneficial owners of
         the outstanding securities of the Company ordinarily having the right
         to Vote in the election of directors, or (ii) individuals who
         constitute the Board on January 1, 1994 (the "Incumbent Board") have

         1994 whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's
         stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters (3/4)
         of the directors comprising the Incumbent 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 objection to such
         nomination) shall be, for purposes of the Plan, considered as though
         such person were a member of the Incumbent Board, (iii) upon approval
         by the Company's stockholders of a reorganization, merger or
         consolidation, other than one with respect to which all or

         Notwithstanding the occurrence of any of the foregoing, the Committee
         may determine, if it deems it to be in the best interest of the
         Company, that an event or events otherwise constituting a Change In
         Control shall not to be so considered. Such determination shall be
         effective only if it is made by the Committee prior to the occurrence
         of an event that otherwise would be or probably will lead to a Change
         In Control or after such event if made by the Committee a majority of
         which is composed of directors who were members of the Board

SECTION 3. DESCRIPTION OF STOCK ACCOUNT

         SECTION 3.1. GENERAL. The performance results of the Stock Account
         (i.e., the return on hypothetical investments in the Stock Account)
         generally are intended to mirror the results of the ESOP accounts
         maintained for ESOP participants. Except as described below, amounts in
         a Participant's Stock Account are hypothetically invested in the same
         manner as funds held in the ESOP. ESOP funds are invested primarily in
         Common Stock, but may also be invested in other types of securities or
         in cash. "Units" representing hypothetical investments in Common Stock
         and other ESOP assets are allocated to each participant's account. Unit
         values will increase or decrease based on the market prices of the
         securities held in the ESOP and on dividends and interest received on
         ESOP assets.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any dividend is paid
         on the Common Stock and such dividend is paid directly to ESOP
         participants, rather than remaining in the ESOP's assets, then the
         Stock Account of each Participant who had a balance in his or her Stock
         Account on the record date for such dividend shall be credited with the
         number of additional units, and fractions thereof, obtained by
         multiplying (i) the dollar value with which each unit in the ESOP would
         have been credited had such dividend not been paid through to ESOP
         participants by (ii) the number of units credited to such Participant's
         Stock Account as of the ex dividend date with respect to such dividend.

                                      134

         The use of units is merely a bookkeeping convenience; the units are not
         actual shares of Common Stock. The Company will not reserve or
         otherwise set aside any Common Stock for or to any Stock Account. The
         maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be hypothetically
         purchased through allocations to Stock Accounts under this Plan is
         100,000.

         SECTION 3.2. MANNER OF CREDITING STOCK ACCOUNT. If a Participant is
         entitled to an allocation pursuant to Section 2, effective as of the
         ESOP Contribution Date, his or her Stock Account shall be credited with
         that number of units, and fractions thereof, obtained by dividing (1)
         the dollar amount of such allocation as described in Section 2 by (2)
         the unit value on the ESOP Contribution Date.

         SECTION 3.1. ELECTION OUT OF THE STOCK ACCOUNT. If a Participant elects
         pursuant to Section 4 to transfer an amount from his or her Stock
         Account to his or her Interest-Bearing Account, effective as of the
         election's Effective Date, (i) his or her Interest-Bearing Account
         shall be credited with a dollar amount equal to the amount obtained by
         multiplying the number of units to be transferred by the unit value on
         the election's Effective Date, and (ii) his or her Stock Account shall
         be reduced by the number of units elected to be transferred.

         SECTION 3.4. DISTRIBUTIONS. Amounts in respect of units shall be
         distributed in cash in accordance with Sections 5. 6, 7 and 15. For
         purposes of a distribution pursuant to Sections 5, 6, 7 and 15, the
         number of units to be distributed from a Participant's Stock Account
         shall be valued by multiplying the number of such units by the unit
         value as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date such
         distribution is to occur.

         SECTION 3.5. PROVISION FOR SECTION 16 INSIDERS. The Stock Account of a
         Section 16 Insider is not transferable by him or her to any other
         person or entity other than by will or the laws of descent and
         distribution. The designation of a beneficiary by a Section 16 Insider
         does not constitute a transfer for this purpose.

SECTION 4. TRANSFERS TO INTEREST-BEARING ACCOUNT.

         SECTION 4.1. GENERAL. Each Participant who has become a "Qualified
         Participant" under Article 9 of the ESOP, or any successor provisions
         thereto, may direct that an amount determined under Section 4.2 be
         transferred from the Participant's Stock Account to his or her
         Interest-Bearing Account at such time or times as such Participant
         could make a diversification election pursuant to Article 9 of the
         ESOP, or any successor provisions thereto. Amounts in a Participant's
         Interest-Bearing Account are hypothetically invested in an account
         which bears interest computed at the Interest Rate, compounded monthly.

         SECTION 4.2. AMOUNT OF TRANSFER. A Participant who is a Qualified
         Participant under the ESOP may direct the Plan to transfer from the
         Participant's Stock Account to the Participant's Interest-Bearing
         Account, a dollar amount equal to the value of the same portion (or
         all, if applicable) of the total number of units credited to the
         Participant's Stock Account as the portion of the total number of
         shares of "Employer Securities" treated as acquired after 1986 which
         the Participant could direct the ESOP to distribute pursuant to Article
         9 of the ESOP, or any successor provisions thereto; provided, however,
         that if a Participant does not transfer to the Interest-Bearing Account
         the full number of units eligible for transfer in a given year, then
         such untransferred units may be carried forward and eligible for

                                      135
<PAGE>   6
         transfer in future years using substantially the same methodology as is
         used for carry-forward of unused shares eligible for diversification
         under Article 9 of the ESOP, or any successor provisions thereto.

         SECTION 4.3. MANNER OF DIRECTING TRANSFER. A Participant's election to
         transfer under this Section 4 shall be provided to the Company's Vice
         President, Human Resources, during the same period during which any
         diversification election pursuant to Article 9 of the ESOP, or any
         successor provisions thereto, must be provided and shall be in writing.
         Notwithstanding the provisions of the ESOP, any such election may not
         be modified or revoked, but shall be effective as of the election's
         Effective, Date. No amounts transferred from a Participant's Stock
         Account to a Participant's Interest-Bearing Account may subsequently be
         transferred back to the Participant's Stock Account.

SECTION 5. PAYMENT OF ACCOUNTS.

         SECTION 5.1. BACKGROUND. No withdrawal may be made from a Participant's
         Accounts except as provided in this Section 5 and Sections 6, 7 and 15.

         SECTION 5.2. MANNER OF PAYMENT. Payment of a Participant's Accounts
         shall be made in a single lump sum or installments, as elected by the
         Participant pursuant to this Section 5. The maximum number of annual
         installments is ten. The minimum annual installment payment permitted
         under such election (determined based on the value of the Participant's
         Accounts as of the last Valuation Date of the calendar year in which
         the Participant terminates employment, and disregarding any earnings
         under this Plan after such date) shall be one thousand dollars
         ($1,000); this minimum shall be applied by dividing by $1,000 the value
         of the Participant's Accounts as of the last Valuation Date of the
         calendar year in which the Participant terminates employment, and the
         result, rounded down to the next largest whole number, shall be the
         maximum number of annual installments permitted. All payments from the
         Plan shall be made in cash.

         SECTION 5.3. TIMING OF PAYMENTS. Payments shall be made by the fifth
         business day in March and shall commence in any year elected by the
         Participant pursuant to this Section 5 up through the tenth year
         following the year in which the Participant retires, becomes disabled,
         or for any other reason ceases to be an employee of the Company or any
         of its Affiliated Companies, but in no event shall commence later than
         the year the Participant reaches age 71.

         SECTION 5.4. VALUATION. The amount of each payment shall be equal to
         the value, as of the preceding Valuation Date, of the Participant's
         Accounts, divided by the number of installments remaining to be paid.
         If a Participant's Accounts are to be paid in installments and the
         Participant has a balance in both his or her Stock Account and his or
         her Interest-Bearing Account at the time of the payment of an
         installment, the amount that shall be distributed from each Account
         shall be proportional to the value of the balance in each such Account
         as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date.

         SECTION 5.5. PARTICIPANT PAYMENT ELECTIONS. Except as provided in
         Section 5.6, an election by a Participant concerning the method of
         payment under Section 5.2 or the commencement of payments under Section
         5.3 must be made at least one (1) year before the Participant's
         termination of employment, and must be made on forms provided by the
         Company. If a Participant does not have a valid election in force at
         the time of termination of employment, then (i) if the value of his
         Accounts as of the last Valuation Date of the calendar year in which he
         terminates employment is less than ten thousand

                                      136
<PAGE>   7

         dollars ($10,000), then his Accounts shall be paid in a single lump
         sum; (ii) if the value of his Accounts as of the last Valuation Date of
         the calendar year in which he terminates employment is ten thousand
         dollars ($10,000) or more, then his Accounts shall be paid in ten (10)
         annual installments; and (iii) regardless of whether payment is made in
         a single lump sum or installments, payment shall commence by the fifth
         business day in March following the calendar year in which the
         Participant terminates employment.

         SECTION 5.6. SPECIAL PAYMENT ELECTION RULES. Notwithstanding Sections
         5.2, 5.3, and 5.5, if a Participant terminates employment less than one
         (1) year before the date he first becomes eligible to participate in
         this Plan, then an election made by the Participant under this Section
         5 no later than thirty (30) days after the date he first becomes
         eligible to participate in this Plan shall be valid. Also
         notwithstanding Sections 5.2, 5.3, and 5.5, Participants who retire or
         otherwise terminate employment no later than January 1, 2000 shall,
         subject to the restrictions of Sections 5.2 and 5.3, have the manner
         and commencement of payment of their Account determined by the Vice
         President, Human Resources, with respect to Participants who are not
         executive officers of the Company, and by the Compensation Committee,
         with respect to Participants who are executive officers of the Company;
         and in such event (i) the Vice President, Human Resources and the
         Compensation Committee, as applicable, may expressly designate any such
         decision under Sections 5.2 or 5.3 concerning time of payment of
         benefits and/or form of payment as being irrevocable, and if such
         designation is made, such decision may be changed only with the consent
         of the Participant, or, if the Participant is deceased, the
         Participant's beneficiary under this Plan (if any); and (ii) once
         payments have commenced to a Participant or beneficiary under this
         Plan, the form of payment shall be considered irrevocable within the
         meaning of the immediately preceding sentence, regardless of whether it
         is designated as such by the Vice President, Human Resources or the
         Compensation Committee. Finally, notwithstanding Sections 5.2, 5.3, and
         5.5, if a Participant terminates employment under circumstances not
         contemplated at the time the Participant filed with the Company his or
         her election under Section 5.5 (hereafter "Changed Circumstances"),
         then the Vice President, Human Resources, with respect to Participants
         who are not executive officers of the Company, and the Compensation
         Committee, with respect to Participants who are executive officers of
         the Company, may allow such Participant to change his or her election
         made under Section 5.5. The determination of whether or not to change
         such election shall be made by the Vice President, Human Resources or
         the Compensation Committee, as applicable, in his or its sole
         discretion, taking into account such factors as deemed appropriate, and
         without regard to any prior determinations made by such parties. Until
         announced otherwise by the Vice President, Human Resources, "Changed
         Circumstances" shall mean (and shall only mean) a Company-initiated
         event or action.

SECTION 6. PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION AFTER DEATH. If a Participant dies
prior to complete payment of his or her Accounts, the balance of such Accounts,
valued as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date payment is made,
shall be paid in a single, lump-sum payment to the same person who would be
entitled to receive survivor benefits with respect to the Participant under the
ESOP.

SECTION 7.1. ACCELERATION OF PAYMENT FOR HARDSHIP. Upon written approval from
the Company's Vice President, Human Resources, with respect to Participants
other than executive officers of the Company, and by the Committee, with respect
to Participants who are executive officers of the Company, a Participant,
whether or not he or she is still employed by the Company or any of its
Affiliated Companies, may be permitted to receive all or part of his or her
Accounts if the Company's Vice President, Human Resources, or

                                      137
<PAGE>   8

the Committee, as applicable, determines that an emergency event beyond the
Participant's control exists which would cause such Participant severe financial
hardship if the payment of his or her Accounts were not approved. Any such
distribution for hardship shall be limited to the amount needed to meet such
emergency. If at the time of such distribution for hardship a Participant has a
balance in both his or her Stock Account and his or her Interest-Bearing
Account, then the amount to be distributed from each Account shall be determined
in accordance with the principles described in Section 5.4.

SECTION 7.2. PAYMENT TO INDIVIDUALS Any participant in the Eastman ESOP Excess
Plan may at his or her discretion withdraw at any time all or part of that
person's account balance under the Plan. If this option is exercised the
individual will forfeit to the Corporation 10% of his or her account balance,
and will not be permitted to participate in this plan for a period of 36 months
from date any payment to a participant is made under this section.

SECTION 7.3. ACCELERATED PAYMENT If under Eastman ESOP Excess Plan one-half or
more of the participants or one-fifth of the participants with one-half of the
value of all benefits owed exercise their option for immediate distribution in a
six month period then this will trigger immediate payout to all participants of
all benefits owed under the plans. Immediate payout under this section will not
involve reduction of the amounts paid to participants as set forth in section
7.2. Any individual that has been penalized in this six month period for
electing immediate withdrawal will be paid that penalty if payout to all
participants under this section occurs.

SECTION 8. PARTICIPANT'S RIGHTS UNSECURED. The benefits payable under this Plan
shall be paid by the Company out of its general assets. To the extent a
Participant acquires the right to receive a payment under this Plan, such right
shall be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.
No amount payable under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, encumbered or
subject to any legal process for the payment of any claim against a Participant.
No Participant shall have the right to exercise any of the rights or privileges
of a stockholder with respect to the units credited to his or her Stock Account.

SECTION 9. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Participation in this Plan shall
not give any employee any right to remain in the employ of the Company or any of
its Affiliated Companies. The Company and each employer Affiliated Company
reserve the right to terminate any Participant at any time.

SECTION 10 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT. Statements will be sent no less frequently than
annually to each participant or his or her estate showing the value of the
Participant's Accounts.

SECTION 11. DEDUCTION. The Company will withhold to the extent required by law
all applicable income and other taxes with respect to amounts deferred or paid
under the Plan. Such withholding shall be deducted from sources outside of this
Plan unless the Company's Vice President, Human Resources, with respect to
Participants other than executive officers of the Company, or the Committee,
with respect to Participants who are executive officers of the Company,
determines that such withholding should be deducted from amounts that would
otherwise be credited to this Plan.

SECTION 12. ADMINISTRATION.

         SECTION 12.1. RESPONSIBILITY. Except as expressly provided otherwise
         herein, the Committee shall have total and exclusive responsibility to
         control, operate, manage and administer the Plan in accordance with its
         terms.

                                      138
<PAGE>   9

         SECTION 12.2. AUTHORITY OF THE COMMITTEE. The Committee shall have all
         the authority that may be necessary or helpful to enable it to
         discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Plan. Without
         limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Committee shall
         have the exclusive right: to interpret the Plan, to determine
         eligibility for participation in the Plan, to decide all questions
         concerning eligibility for and the amount of benefits payable under the
         Plan, to construe any ambiguous provision of the Plan, to correct any
         default, to supply any omission, to reconcile any inconsistency, and to
         decide any and all questions arising in the administration,
         interpretation, and application of the Plan.

         SECTION 12.3. DISCRETION AUTHORITY. The Committee shall have full
         discretionary authority in all matters related to the discharge of its
         responsibilities and the exercise of its authority under the Plan
         including, without limitation, its construction of the terms of the
         Plan and its determination of eligibility for participation and
         benefits under the Plan. It is the intent of the Plan that the
         decisions of the Committee and its action with respect to the Plan
         shall be final and binding upon all persons having or claiming to have
         any right or interest in or under the Plan and that no such decision or
         action shall be modified upon judicial review unless such decision or
         action is proven to be arbitrary or capricious.

         SECTION 12.4. AUTHORITY OF VICE PRESIDENT, HUMAN RESOURCES. Where
         expressly provided for under Sections 4, 7 and 11, the authority of the
         Committee is delegated to the Company's Vice President, Human
         Resources, and to that extent the provisions of Section 12.1 through
         12.3 above shall be deemed to apply to such Vice President.

         SECTION 12.5. DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY. The Committee may provide for an
         additional delegation of some or all of its authority under the Plan to
         any person or persons provided that any such delegation be in writing.

SECTION 13. AMENDMENT. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time,
and may, from time to time, amend the Plan in any manner. However, no amendment,
modification, or termination shall, without the consent of a Participant,
adversely affect such Participant's accruals in his or her Accounts as of the
date of such amendment, modification, or termination.

SECTION 14. GOVERNING LAW. The Plan shall be construed, governed and enforced in
accordance with the law of Tennessee, except as such laws are preempted by
applicable federal law.

SECTION 15. CHANGE IN CONTROL.

         SECTION 15.1. BACKGROUND. The terms of this Section 15 shall
         immediately become operative, without further action or consent by any
         person or entity, upon a Change In Control, and once operative shall
         supersede and control over any other provisions of this Plan.

         SECTION 15.2. [RESERVED]

         SECTION 15.3. AMENDMENT ON OR AFTER CHANGE IN CONTROL. On or after a
         Change In Control, no action, including, but not by way of limitation,
         the amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan, shall be taken
         which would affect the rights of any Participant or the operation of
         this Plan with respect to the balance in the Participant's Accounts
         without the written consent of the Participant, or, if the Participant
         is deceased, the Participant's beneficiary under this Plan (if any).

                                      139
<PAGE>   10

         SECTION 15.4. ATTORNEY FEES The Corporation shall pay all reasonable
         legal fees and related expenses incurred by a participant in seeking to
         obtain or enforce any payment, benefit or right such participant may be
         entitled to under the plan after a Change in Control; provided,
         however, the participant shall be required to repay any such amounts to
         the Corporation to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction issues
         a final and non-appealable order setting forth the determination that
         the position taken by the participant was frivolous or advanced in bad
         faith.

SECTION 16. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. The hypothetical units of Common
Stock provided for by this Plan are intended not to constitute "derivative
securities" for purposes of Rule l6a-1(c), or any successor provisions, under
the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of this Plan or action by the
Committee would cause such units to constitute "derivative securities" for those
purposes, it shall be deemed to be null and void, to the extent permitted by law
and deemed advisable by the Committee.

The Committee may, from time to time, impose additional restrictions upon
Participants as it deems necessary, advisable or appropriate in order to comply
with applicable federal and state securities laws. All such restrictions shall
be accomplished by way of written guidelines adopted by the Committee.

SECTION 17. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Plan shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
