                Subsequent

                  Participant may not accelerate the timing or method of any payment
                  under
                  the Plan, except as provided in the Regulations. Any change to
                  an election
                  regarding the timing or method of payment must satisfy the following
                  conditions:

              

      

       

      
        	 	
                (a)

              	
                the
                  subsequent election to delay a payment must be made no later than
                  12
                  months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment;
                  and

              

      

       

      
        	 	
                (b)

              	
                the
                  first
                  payment must be deferred for a period of at least 5 years from
                  the date
                  the payment would otherwise have been
                  made.

              

      

       

      In
        the case of a subsequent election to change the timing of monthly installments,
        each subsequent election will apply to the installments to be made over a
        12-month period, starting with the first installment designated by the
        Participant’s subsequent election.

       

      If
        such subsequent election does not satisfy the conditions specified in this
        section, the prior election shall be used to determine the method and timing
        of
        payment. The last effective election accepted and acknowledged by the Committee
        shall govern the payment of the applicable portion of the Participant’s Account.
        Elections under this subsection will not affect the method or timing of payments
        made on account of Hardship, Disability or death except as otherwise provided
        in
        this article.

                  to the
                  reasonable satisfaction of the Committee that he or she needs the
                  specified funds due to Hardship. The Committee may deny or approve
                  all or
                  any portion of a payment upon Hardship upon terms permitted under
                  the Code
                  and Regulations, as determined in its sole
                  discretion.

                Payment
                  upon Death. Upon a Participant’s death, the Participant’s
                  Beneficiary will be entitled to receive the balance of the future
                  payments
                  of the Participant’s Account according to the method of payment elected by
                  the Participant. If the Participant has received all of the scheduled
                  payments prior to his or her death, no further benefits shall be
                  due under
                  the Plan.

                Designation
                  of Beneficiary. The Participant may designate a Beneficiary
                  or Beneficiaries to receive any amount due hereunder by the Participant
                  by
                  written notice thereof to the Company at any time prior to his
                  or her
                  death and may revoke or change the Beneficiary so designated without
                  the
                  Beneficiary’s consent by written notice delivered to Company at any time
                  and from time to time prior to the Participant’s death. If the Participant
                  is married and a resident of a community property state, one half
                  of any
                  amount due under the Plan which is the result of an amount contributed
                  to
                  the Plan during the Participant’s marriage is the community property of
                  the Participant’s spouse and the Participant may designate a Beneficiary
                  or Beneficiaries to receive only the Participant’s one-half interest. If
                  the Participant shall have failed to designate a Beneficiary, or
                  if no
                  such Beneficiary shall survive him or her, then such amount shall
                  be paid
                  to his or her estate. To be effective, Beneficiary designations
                  must be
                  completed according to procedures established by the
                  Committee.

                  the

                  installments, if any, shall be made on the first day of each month

                  balance as

                  pursuant to the Participant’s payment

                  in the
                  Company’s financial health, (ii) any other arrangement that is aggregated
                  with the Plan under the Regulations is also terminated and liquidated

                  no Plan liquidation payments are made within 12 months following
                  the date
                  the Company takes all necessary irrevocable action to terminate
                  and
                  liquidate the Plan (the “termination date”) (other than payments payable
                  for reasons other than Plan liquidation), (iv) all payments are

                  within 24 months of the termination date; and (v) the Company does
                  not
                  adopt a new plan that would be aggregated with any terminated and
                  liquidated plan if the same Participant participated in both plans,

                  time within 3 years following the termination

                Accounts.
                  The Company shall establish separate Accounts for each Participant
                  who
                  participates in the Plan. No special fund shall be established
                  nor shall
                  any note or security be issued by the Company with respect to a
                  Participant’s Accounts.

                Participants’
                  Rights Unsecured. The right of the Participant or his or her
                  Beneficiary to receive a payment hereunder shall be an unsecured
                  claim
                  against the general assets of the Company, and neither the Participant
                  nor
                  his or her Beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any
                  amount
                  credited to his or her Cash Account or Stock Account or any other
                  specific
                  assets of the Company, except as otherwise provided in the Trust.
                  Nothing
                  contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions,
                  shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a
                  fiduciary
                  relationship between the Plan and the Company or any other
                  person.

                Trust
                  Agreement. The Company may establish the Trust for the
                  purpose of retaining assets set aside by the Company pursuant to
                  the Trust
                  Agreement for payment of all or a portion of the amounts payable
                  pursuant
                  to the Plan. Any benefits not paid from the Trust shall be paid
                  solely
                  from the Company’s general funds, and any benefits paid from the Trust
                  shall be credited against and reduced by a corresponding amount
                  the
                  Company’s liability to the Participants under the Plan. No special or
                  separate fund, other than the Trust Agreement, shall be established
                  and no
                  other segregation of assets shall be made to assure the payment
                  of any
                  benefits hereunder. All Trust Funds shall be subject to the claims
                  of
                  general creditors of the Company in the event the Company is insolvent
                  (as
                  that term is defined in the Trust Agreement). The obligations of
                  the
                  Company to pay benefits under the Plan constitute an unfunded,
                  unsecured
                  promise to pay and Participants shall have no greater rights than
                  general
                  creditors of the Company. Trust assets shall not, at any time,
                  be located
                  outside of the United States or be transferred outside of the United
                  States, whether or not such assets are available to satisfy claims
                  of
                  general creditors.

                  a Participant’s Account in accordance with the following
                  rules:

              

      

       

      
        	 	
                (a)

              	
                Measurement
                  Funds. The Committee shall select from time to time certain
                  mutual funds, insurance company separate accounts, indexed rates
                  or other
                  methods (the “measurement funds”) for purposes of crediting or debiting
                  additional amounts to Participants’ Account. The Committee may
                  discontinue, substitute or add a measurement fund; provided however,
                  that
                  (1) any decision to retain, discontinue or substitute a measurement
                  fund shall be made in good faith, and (2) there shall at all times be
                  a minimum of 4 measurement funds of materially different risk and
                  return
                  characteristics.

                Election
                  of Measurement Funds. A Participant shall elect, according
                  to procedures establish by the Committee, one or more measurement
                  fund(s)
                  to be used to determine the amounts to be credited or debited to
                  his or
                  her Account. If a Participant does not elect any of the measurement
                  funds
                  as described in the previous sentence, the Participant’s Account Balance
                  may automatically be allocated into a default measurement fund
                  which is
                  selected by the Committee. A Participant may elect to change his
                  or her
                  measurement funds and/or allocations among measurement funds from
                  time to
                  time according to procedures established by the Committee. Each
                  election
                  shall be implemented according to procedures established by the
                  Committee
                  and shall continue thereafter for each subsequent day in which
                  the
                  Participant has an Account. The Committee may, in its sole discretion,
                  determine that an election is void, shall not be applied or shall
                  be
                  substituted with the Trustee’s choice of measurement funds. The Committee
                  may also provide that a change shall not take effect for a specified
                  period of time following the Committee’s receipt of such an election.

                Crediting
                  or Debiting Method. The performance of each elected
                  measurement fund (either positive or negative) will be determined
                  by the
                  Committee based on the performance of the measurement funds themselves.
                  A
                  Participant’s Account shall be credited or debited not less frequently
                  than on a monthly basis based on the performance of each selected
                  measurement fund for the corresponding period of
                  time.

                No
                  Actual Investment. Notwithstanding any other provision of
                  this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the measurement
                  funds
                  are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election
                  of any such measurement fund, the allocation of his or her Account
                  thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting
                  or
                  debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Account shall not be
                  considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of
                  his or
                  her Account in any such measurement fund. In the event that the
                  Company or
                  the Trustee, in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in
                  any or all
                  of the investments on which the measurement funds are based, no
                  Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves.

                  Company shall send a copy of the notice and all proxy solicitation
                  materials to each Participant who has Stock held in a Stock Account,
                  together with a voting direction form for return to the proxy holder
                  or
                  its designee. The Participant shall have the right to direct the
                  proxy
                  holder as to the manner in which the proxy holder is to vote the
                  Stock
                  credited to the Participant’s Stock Account. The Trustee, in its sole
                  discretion, shall have the right to vote shares for which it has
                  received
                  no directions from the Participant. With respect to all rights
                  other than
                  the right to vote, the Company shall follow the directions of the
                  Committee.

                Amendment.
                  The Committee shall have the right to amend the Plan at any time
                  and from
                  time to time, including by retroactive amendment. Any such amendment
                  shall
                  become effective upon the date stated therein, and shall be binding
                  on all
                  Participants, except as otherwise provided in such amendment; provided,
                  however, that said amendment shall not adversely affect benefits
                  previously accrued to the affected Participant without the Participant’s
                  written approval. Benefits accruing to a Participant pursuant to
                  any
                  employment agreement in effect between the Company and the Participant
                  that entitles the Participant to participate in and to certain
                  rights
                  under the Plan shall not be affected by an amendment of the Plan
                  except as
                  required by Code Section 409A and the Regulations.

                  The Committee shall have the right to terminate and liquidate the
                  Plan to
                  the fullest extent permitted by Code Section 409A, including (a)
                  termination of the Plan within 12 months following a Liquidation,
                  or (b)
                  within 30 days preceding or 12 months following a Change in Control,
                  provided that such termination following a Change in Control shall
                  not
                  result in a diminution of benefits accrued under the Plan, or (c)
                  the
                  termination covers all arrangements sponsored by the Company that
                  would be
                  aggregated with the Plan and cover any Participant of the Plan,
                  the
                  termination does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial
                  health
                  of the Company, and payments are made after 12 months, but within
                  24
                  months, following the termination.

                  The Committee shall administer and interpret the Plan in accordance
                  with
                  the provisions of the Plan and the Trust Agreement. Any determination
                  or

                  that claim,

                  benefits.

                Review
                  of Claim. The Committee shall review all applications and claims

                  in
                  whole or in part. If a claim is denied in whole or in part, the

                  shall provide written notice of denial to the claimant within a
                  reasonable
                  period of time no later than 90 days after the Committee receives
                  the

                  for
                  processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Committee
                  shall
                  notify the claimant in writing (including by electronic media)
                  by the end
                  of the initial 90-day period and indicate the special circumstances
                  requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Committee
                  expects
                  to render a decision on the claim. The extension shall not exceed
                  an
                  additional 90 days. The notice of denial shall be written (including
                  in
                  electronic media) in a manner calculated to be understood by the
                  claimant

                  of the
                  claimant’s receipt of notification of the denied claim. The claimant or
                  the claimant’s representative may review pertinent Plan documents and may
                  submit issues or comments to the Committee in writing. The claimant
                  or the
                  claimant’s representative may provide the Committee with a written

                  of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the
                  claim. A

                  to the
                  claim if such document, record or other information (A) was relied
                  upon in
                  making the benefit determination, (B) was submitted, considered

                  relied
                  upon in making the benefit determination, or (C) demonstrates compliance
                  with the administrative processes and safeguards designed to ensure
                  and
                  verify that benefit claim determinations are made in accordance
                  with the
                  Plan and that, where appropriate, the Plan provisions have been
                  applied
                  consistently with respect to similarly situated
                  claimants.

                  a denied claim together with all associated documents to the Chairman
                  of

                  decision on review solely on the basis of the written record, including
                  documents and written materials submitted by the claimant and/or
                  the
                  claimant’s representative. The Committee shall make a decision on review
                  within a reasonable period of time, not later than 60 days after
                  the
                  Committee receives the claimant’s written request for review unless
                  special circumstances require additional time for review of the
                  claim. If
                  the Committee needs an extension of time to review the claim, it
                  shall
                  notify the claimant in writing before the end of the initial 60-day
                  period, and shall indicate the special circumstances requiring
                  an
                  extension of time and the date by which the Committee expects to
                  render
                  the determination on review. The extension shall not be longer
                  than an
                  additional 60 days. The decision on review will be written in a
                  manner
                  calculated to be understood by the claimant. If the claim is denied,
                  the
                  written noticed shall include specific reasons for the decision
                  as well as
                  specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision
                  is

                  of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the
                  claimant’s claim for benefits, with “relevant” defined as provided in the

                Liability
                  of Committee; Indemnification. To the extent permitted by

                  taken
                  or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration
                  of the
                  Plan unless attributable to his or her own bad faith or willful
                  misconduct. The Committee may employ legal counsel, consultants,
                  actuaries
                  and agents as they may deem desirable in the administration of
                  the Plan

                  of such
                  consultant or other agent. The Committee shall provide for the
                  keeping of
                  detailed written minutes of its actions hereunder, which shall
                  be reviewed
                  by the legal counsel or the consultant engaged by the Committee
                  prior to
                  their finalization.

                Rights
                  Against the Company. Except as expressly provided by the
                  Plan, the establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as giving
                  to
                  any Participant or to any person whomsoever, any legal, equitable
                  or other
                  rights against the Company, or against its officers, directors,
                  agents or
                  shareholders, or as giving to any Participant or Beneficiary any
                  equity or
                  other interest in the assets, business or shares of the Company
                  stock or giving any Participant the right to continue rendering
                  services to or for the benefit of the Company. The services of
                  any Participant shall be subject to termination (with or without
                  cause) to
                  the same extent they would have been if the Plan had never been
                  adopted.
                  The rights of a Participant hereunder shall be solely those of
                  an
                  unsecured general creditor of the Company. Neither the Plan nor
                  any action
                  taken hereunder shall be construed as giving to any Participant
                  the right
                  to continue rendering services to or for the benefit of the Company
                  or as
                  affecting the right of the Company to dismiss any Participant.
                  Any benefit
                  payable under the Plan shall not be deemed salary or other compensation
                  for the purpose of computing benefits under any Participant benefit
                  plan
                  or other arrangement of the Company for the benefit of its
                  Participants.

                Assignment
                  or Transfer. No right, title or interest of any kind in the
                  Plan shall be transferable or assignable by any Participant or
                  Beneficiary
                  or be subject to alienation, anticipation, encumbrance, garnishment,
                  attachment, execution or levy of any kind, whether voluntary or
                  involuntary, nor subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities,
                  engagements, or torts of the Participant or Beneficiary. Any attempt
                  to
                  alienate, anticipate, encumber, sell, transfer, assign, pledge,
                  garnish,
                  attach or otherwise subject to legal or equitable process or encumber
                  or
                  dispose of any interest in the Plan shall be void.

                  If any provision of the Plan shall be declared illegal or invalid
                  for any
                  reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining
                  provisions of the Plan but shall be fully severable, and the Plan
                  shall be
                  construed and enforced as if said illegal or invalid provision
                  had never
                  been inserted herein.

                Payment
                  Due to Incompetence. If the Committee receives evidence that
                  a Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive any payment under
                  the
                  Plan is physically or mentally incompetent to receive such payment,
                  the
                  Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct the
                  payment to
                  any other person or trust which has been legally appointed by the
                  courts
                  or to any other person determined by the Company to be a proper

                  of them, in
                  such manner and proportion as the Company may deem proper. Any
                  such
                  payment shall be in complete discharge of the Company’s obligations under
                  the Plan.

                  all federal, state, and local taxes imposed upon Participant or his
                  or her Beneficiary, which are required to be paid or withheld by
                  the
                  Company. The determination of the Company regarding applicable
                  income and
                  tax withholding requirements shall be final and binding on
                  Participant.

                Insurance.
                  In the event that any Participant elects, in his or her discretion,
                  to
                  independently purchase an insurance policy covering the inability
                  of the
                  Plan or the Trust to make any payments to which Participant is
                  entitled
                  under the Plan or the Trust, the Company shall use its best efforts
                  to
                  facilitate the payment by Participant of any applicable excise
                  taxes which
                  become due as the result of the payment of premiums under such
                  policy.
                  Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an endorsement by
                  the
                  Company of the purchase of such a policy or a recommendation by
                  the
                  Company that the purchase of such a policy is necessary or desirable
                  as
                  the result of Participant’s participation in the Plan. In the event that
                  such insurance would result in adverse tax consequences to the
                  Participant, the Participant shall terminate such
                  insurance.

              (2)

            	
              with

              Default
                Elections. In the event the Participant fails properly to
                designate the method of payment, subject to a subsequent election
                made
                under Section 4.3, such amounts shall be payable in the form of a
                lump

              Subsequent
                Elections. Subject to Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.9 and 4.10, a
                Participant may not accelerate the timing or method of any payment
                under
                the Plan, except as provided in the Regulations. Any change to an
                election
                regarding the timing or method of payment must satisfy the following
                conditions:

            

    

    
       

      
        
          
            	Deferred

              (a)

            	
              the
                subsequent election to delay a payment must be made no later than
                12
                months prior to the date of the first scheduled payment;
                and

            

    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              the
                first
                payment must be deferred for a period of at least 5 years from the
                date
                the payment would otherwise have been
                made.

            

    

     

    In
      the case of a subsequent election to change the timing of monthly installments,
      each subsequent election will apply to the installments to be made over a
      12-month period, starting with the first installment designated by the
      Participant’s subsequent election.

     

    If
      such subsequent election does not satisfy the conditions specified in this
      section, the prior election shall be used to determine the method and timing
      of
      payment. The last effective election accepted and acknowledged by the Committee
      shall govern the payment of the applicable portion of the Participant’s Account.
      Elections under this subsection will not affect the method or timing of payments
      made on account of Hardship, Disability or death except as otherwise provided
      in
      this article.

              Payment
                upon Hardship. A Participant may apply for payment from his
                or her Account to the extent that the Participant demonstrates to
                the
                reasonable satisfaction of the Committee that he or she needs the
                specified funds due to Hardship. The Committee may deny or approve
                all or
                any portion of a payment upon Hardship upon terms permitted under
                the Code
                and Regulations, as determined in its sole
                discretion.

              (a)

            	
              Payment
                Following a Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other
                provisions of the Plan, in the event a Participant has not experienced
                an
                elected payment event at the time of a Change in Control, then the
                Participant shall be entitled to receive payment of his or her Account
                balance in a lump sum payment within 30 days of a Change in
                Control.

              Payments
                Commenced. Following a Change in Control, any Participant
                (or Beneficiary thereof) already receiving payments under the Plan
                shall
                continue to receive the balance of the Participant’s Account paid
                according to the method elected by the Participant, subject to the
                acceleration of payment pursuant to a termination and liquidation
                of the
                Plan pursuant to Section 4.11(e).

              Payment
                upon Death. Upon a Participant’s death, the Participant’s
                Beneficiary will be entitled to receive the balance of the future
                payments
                of the Participant’s Account according to the method of payment elected by
                the Participant. If the Participant has received all of the scheduled
                payments prior to his or her death, no further benefits shall be
                due under
                the Plan.

            

    

     

    
      	
              4.7

            	
              Designation
                of Beneficiary. The Participant may designate a Beneficiary
                or Beneficiaries to receive any amount due hereunder by the Participant
                by
                written notice thereof to the Company at any time prior to his or
                her
                death and may revoke or change the Beneficiary so designated without
                the
                Beneficiary’s consent by written notice delivered to the Company at any
                time and from time to time prior to the Participant’s death. If the
                Participant is married and a resident of a community property state,
                one
                half of any amount due under the Plan which is the result of an amount
                contributed to the Plan during the Participant’s marriage is the community
                property of the Participant’s spouse and the Participant may designate a
                Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive only the Participant’s one-half
                interest. If the Participant shall have failed to designate a Beneficiary,
                or if no such Beneficiary shall survive him or her, then such amount
                shall
                be paid to his or her estate. To be effective, Beneficiary designations
                must be completed according to procedures established by the
                Committee.

                of installments shall be made or commence within 90 days following
                the
                date of the payment event or identification of the Beneficiary, if
                later,
                as applicable, but in no event later than the end of the 21⁄2 month period
                following the Plan Year in which occurs the payment event. Subsequent
                installments, if any, shall be made on the first day of each month
                following the first installment as determined by the Company. The
                amount
                of each installment shall be calculated by dividing the Account balance
                as
                of the date of the payment by the number of installments remaining
                pursuant to the Participant’s payment
                election.

                termination and liquidation does not occur proximate to a downturn
                in the
                Company’s financial health, (ii) any other arrangement that is aggregated

                the Company takes all necessary irrevocable action to terminate and
                liquidate the Plan (the “termination date”) (other than payments payable
                for reasons other than Plan liquidation), (iv) all payments are made
                within 24 months of the termination date; and (v) the Company does
                not
                adopt a new plan that would be aggregated with any terminated and
                liquidated plan if the same Participant participated in both plans,
                at any
                time within 3 years following the termination
                date.

                Rights Unsecured. The right of the Participant or his or her
                Beneficiary to receive a payment hereunder shall be an unsecured
                claim
                against the general assets of the Company, and neither the Participant
                nor

                credited to his or her Account or any other specific assets of the
                Company, except as otherwise provided in the Trust. Nothing contained
                in
                the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create
                or
                be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship
                between the Plan and the Company or any other

              Trust
                Agreement. The Company may establish the Trust for the
                purpose of retaining assets set aside by the Company pursuant to
                the Trust
                Agreement for payment of all or a portion of the amounts payable
                pursuant
                to the Plan. Any benefits not paid from the Trust shall be paid solely
                from the Company’s general funds, and any benefits paid from the Trust
                shall be credited against and reduced by a corresponding amount the
                Company’s liability to the Participants under the Plan. No special or
                separate fund, other than the Trust Agreement, shall be established
                and no
                other segregation of assets shall be made to assure the payment of
                any
                benefits hereunder. All Trust Funds shall be subject to the claims
                of
                general creditors of the Company in the event the Company is insolvent
                (as
                that term is defined in the Trust Agreement). The obligations of
                the
                Company to pay benefits under the Plan constitute an unfunded, unsecured
                promise to pay and Participants shall have no greater rights than
                general
                creditors of the Company. Trust assets shall not, at any time, be
                located
                outside of the United States or be transferred outside of the United
                States, whether or not such assets are available to satisfy claims
                of
                general creditors.

                the
                Committee, in its sole discretion, amounts shall be credited or debited

              Measurement
                Funds. The Committee shall select from time to time certain
                mutual funds, insurance company separate accounts, indexed rates
                or other
                methods (the “measurement funds”) for purposes of crediting or debiting
                additional amounts to Participants’ Account. The Committee may
                discontinue, substitute or add a measurement fund; provided however,
                that
                (1) any decision to retain, discontinue or substitute a measurement
                fund shall be made in good faith, and (2) there shall at all times be
                a minimum of 4 measurement funds of materially different risk and
                return
                characteristics.

              Election
                of Measurement Funds. A Participant shall elect, according
                to procedures establish by the Committee, one or more measurement
                fund(s)
                to be used to determine the amounts to be credited or debited to
                his or
                her Account. If a Participant does not elect any of the measurement
                funds
                as described in the previous sentence, the Participant’s Account Balance
                may automatically be allocated into a default measurement fund which
                is
                selected by the Committee. A Participant may elect to change his
                or her
                measurement funds and/or allocations among measurement funds from
                time to
                time according to procedures established by the Committee. Each election
                shall be implemented according to procedures established by the Committee
                and shall continue thereafter for each subsequent day in which the
                Participant has an Account. The Committee may, in its sole discretion,
                determine that an election is void, shall not be applied or shall
                be
                substituted with the Trustee’s choice of measurement funds. The Committee
                may also provide that a change shall not take effect for a specified
                period of time following the Committee’s receipt of such an election.

              Crediting
                or Debiting Method. The performance of each elected
                measurement fund (either positive or negative) will be determined
                by the
                Committee based on the performance of the measurement funds themselves.
                A
                Participant’s Account shall be credited or debited not less frequently
                than on a monthly basis based on the performance of each selected
                measurement fund for the corresponding period of
                time.

                this Plan that may be interpreted to the contrary, the measurement
                funds
                are to be used for measurement purposes only, and a Participant’s election
                of any such measurement fund, the allocation of his or her Account
                thereto, the calculation of additional amounts and the crediting
                or
                debiting of such amounts to a Participant’s Account shall not be
                considered or construed in any manner as an actual investment of
                his or
                her Account in any such measurement fund. In the event that the Company
                or
                the Trustee, in its own discretion, decides to invest funds in any
                or all
                of the investments on which the measurement funds are based, no
                Participant shall have any rights in or to such investments themselves.

                in which
                the proxy holder is to vote the Stock credited to the Participant’s
                Account. The Trustee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right
                to vote
                shares for which it has received no directions from the Participant.
                With
                respect to all rights other than the right to vote, the Company shall

                with
                the provisions of the Plan and the Trust Agreement. Any determination
                or
                decision by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding on all
                persons
                who at any time have or claim to have any interest whatever under
                the
                Plan. To the extent required to avoid penalties, the Committee intends
                to
                interpret and operate the Plan in all respects in compliance with
                Code

                for Benefits. The following claims procedures are generally
                applicable to claims filed under the Plan. To the extent required
                by law
                and to the extent the Committee is ruling on a claim for benefits
                on
                account of a disability, the Plan will follow, with respect to that
                claim,
                claims procedures required by law for plans providing disability
                benefits.

              General
                Procedures. Subject to the provisions of subsection (b), the

              Filing
                a Claim. All applications and claims for benefits shall be filed
                in writing by the Participant, his or her Beneficiary, or the authorized
                representative of the claimant, by completing the procedures required
                by
                the Committee. The procedures shall be reasonable and may include

              Review
                of Claim. The Committee shall review all applications and claims
                for benefits and shall decide whether to approve or deny the claim
                in
                whole or in part. If a claim is denied in whole or in part, the Committee
                shall provide written notice of denial to the claimant within a reasonable
                period of time no later than 90 days after the Committee receives
                the
                claim, unless special circumstances require an extension of time
                for
                processing the claim. If an extension is required, the Committee
                shall
                notify the claimant in writing (including by electronic media) by
                the end
                of the initial 90-day period and indicate the special circumstances
                requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Committee
                expects
                to render a decision on the claim. The extension shall not exceed
                an
                additional 90 days. The notice of denial shall be written (including
                in
                electronic media) in a manner calculated to be understood by the
                claimant

                to submit the denied claim for review, including any applicable time
                limits and including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil

              Appealing
                a Claims Denial. If the claimant wishes a review of the denied
                claim, he or she shall notify the Committee in writing within 60
                days of
                the claimant’s receipt of notification of the denied claim. The claimant
                or the claimant’s representative may review pertinent Plan documents and
                may submit issues or comments to the Committee in writing. The claimant
                or
                the claimant’s representative may provide the Committee with a written
                statement of the claimant’s position and with written materials in support
                of his or her position, including documents, records and other information
                relating to the claim. The claimant or the claimant’s representative may
                have, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and
                copies
                of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the
                claim. A
                document, record or other information shall be considered relevant
                to the
                claim if such document, record or other information (A) was relied
                upon in
                making the benefit determination, (B) was submitted, considered or
                generated in the course of making the benefit determination, without
                regard to whether such document, record or other information was
                relied
                upon in making the benefit determination, or (C) demonstrates
                compliance with the administrative processes and safeguards designed
                to
                ensure and verify that benefit claim determinations are made in accordance
                with the Plan and that, where appropriate, the Plan provisions have
                been
                applied consistently with respect to similarly situated
                claimants.

              Review
                of Appeal. The Committee shall forward all requests for review of
                a denied claim together with all associated documents to the Chairman
                of
                the Committee promptly after receipt. The Committee shall make its
                decision on review solely on the basis of the written record, including
                documents and written materials submitted by the claimant and/or
                the
                claimant’s representative. The Committee shall make a decision on review
                within a reasonable period of time, not later than 60 days after
                the
                Committee receives the claimant’s written request for review unless
                special circumstances require additional time for review of the claim.
                If
                the Committee needs an extension of time to review the claim, it
                shall
                notify the claimant in writing before the end of the initial 60-day
                period, and shall indicate the special circumstances requiring an
                extension of time and the date by which the Committee expects to
                render
                the determination on review. The extension shall not be longer than
                an
                additional 60 days. The decision on review will be written in a manner
                calculated to be understood by the claimant. If the claim is denied,
                the
                written noticed shall include specific reasons for the decision as
                well as
                specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision
                is
                based, a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action under ERISA
                Section 502(a) and a statement that the claimant is entitled to
                receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and
                copies
                of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the
                claimant’s claim for benefits, with “relevant” defined as provided in the
                previous subsection.

              Rights
                Against the Company. Except as expressly provided by the
                Plan, the establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as giving
                to
                any Participant or to any person whomsoever, any legal, equitable
                or other

                or
                shareholders, or as giving to any Participant or Beneficiary any
                equity or
                other interest in the assets, business or shares of the Company or
                giving
                any Participant the right to be retained in the employment of the

                The services of any Participant shall be subject to termination (with
                or
                without cause) to the same extent they would have been if the Plan
                had
                never been adopted. The rights of a Participant hereunder shall be
                solely
                those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. Neither the
                Plan
                nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving to any
                Participant the right to continue rendering services to or for the
                benefit
                of the Company or as affecting the right of the Company to dismiss
                any
                Participant. Any benefit payable under the Plan shall not be deemed
                salary
                or other compensation for the purpose of computing benefits under
                any
                Participant benefit plan or other arrangement of the Company for
                the

              Payment
                Due to Incompetence. If the Committee receives evidence that
                a Participant or Beneficiary entitled to receive any payment under
                the
                Plan is physically or mentally incompetent to receive such payment,
                the
                Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct the payment
                to
                any other person or trust which has been legally appointed by the
                courts
                or to any other person determined by the Company to be a proper recipient
                on behalf of such person otherwise entitled to payment, or any of
                them, in
                such manner and proportion as the Company may deem proper. Any such
                payment shall be in complete discharge of the Company’s obligations under
                the Plan.

                All amounts payable hereunder shall be reduced by any and
                all federal, state, and local taxes imposed upon Participant or his
                or her Beneficiary, which are required to be paid or withheld by
                the
                Company. The determination of the Company regarding applicable income
                and
                employment tax withholding requirements shall be final and binding
                on

              Insurance.
                In the event that any Participant elects, in his or her discretion,
                to
                independently purchase an insurance policy covering the inability
                of the
                Plan or the Trust to make any payments to which Participant is entitled
                under the Plan or the Trust, the Company shall use its best efforts
                to
                facilitate the payment by Participant of any applicable excise taxes
                which
                become due as the result of the payment of premiums under such policy.
                Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an endorsement by
                the
                Company of the purchase of such a policy or a recommendation by the
                Company that the purchase of such a policy is necessary or desirable
                as
                the result of Participant’s participation in the Plan. In the event that
                such insurance would result in adverse tax consequences to the
                Participant, the Participant shall terminate such
                insurance.

                to
                enforce Participant’s rights under the Plan, provided that such fees shall
                only be payable in the event that the Participant prevails in such
                action.
