                      AMENDED AND RESTATED CSX CORPORATION

         outstanding shares of Stock present or represented and entitled to vote
         at a meeting of shareholders of the Company not later than April 17,
         1997, and shall remain in effect until amended or terminated by action

                  changed, or in the event of a change in the capital structure
                  of the Company, the shares resulting from such a change shall
                  be deemed to be Stock within the meaning the Plan.

6.       SHARES AND STOCK OPTIONS.

         (a)      Commencing May 1, 1992, the annual retainer payable to each
                  Participant for service on the Board shall be payable in part
                  in shares of Stock subject to any applicable deferrals and
                  restrictions set forth in Section 8 hereof. Subject to
                  paragraphs (b) and (c) below, each Participant shall be paid
                  40 percent of the annual retainer payable to each Participant
                  for service on the Board (the "Designated Percentage") in
                  shares of Stock. The shares shall be deducted at their Fair
                  Market Value, determined as of the Business Day immediately
                  preceding the date of the Company's Annual Meeting of
                  Shareholders ("Annual Meeting"), from the Participant's annual
                  retainer.

         (b)      Any person who becomes a non-employee director following the
                  Company's Annual Meeting, whether by appointment or election
                  as a director or by change in status from a full-time
                  employee, shall receive shares of Stock as a portion of the
                  compensation to be paid to such Participant until the next
                  Annual Meeting. The number of shares of Stock issued to such
                  Participant shall be determined by dividing the product of the
                  pro rata portion of the annual retainer to be paid to such
                  director and the Designated Percentage by the Fair Market
                  Value on the day such person becomes a Participant. A
                  Participant who becomes a non-employee director following the
                  Company's Annual Meeting may, at the beginning of such term,
                  make his or her Annual Election as set forth in paragraph (c)
                  below regardless of the number of months remaining until the
                  next Annual Meeting.

         (c)      Each Participant may also make one election during the period
                  from Annual Meeting to the next Annual Meeting (the "Annual
                  Election") to receive up to 100 percent of his or her
                  retainers and/or fees in shares of Stock, subject to any
                  applicable deferrals and restrictions set forth in Section 8
                  hereof. The Annual Election must be in writing and shall be
                  delivered to the Corporate Secretary of the Company no later
                  than six months prior to the next Annual Meeting. The Annual
                  Election shall be irrevocable in respect of the year to which
                  it pertains and shall specify the applicable percentage of the
                  annual retainers and/or fees above the Designated Percentage
                  that such Participant wishes to receive in shares of Stock.
                  The Annual Election shall not be effective until at least six
                  months and one day following its execution and receipt by the
                  Company.

         (d)      In addition to the awards described in the previous provisions
                  of this Section 6, the Board may make additional awards of
                  Stock or options to acquire Stock to Participants upon such
                  terms as it deems fit; provided, however, that options to
                  acquire Stock ("Stock Options") shall be subject to the
                  restrictions in Section 10.

7.       PAYMENT OF SHARES. Payments to directors of Stock or Stock Options
         pursuant to this Plan shall be made as follows, subject to any
         applicable deferrals and restrictions pursuant to Section 8 of this
         Plan:

                                       2
<PAGE>

         (a)      Shares payable as the Designated Percentage pursuant to
                  Section 6 of the Plan shall be payable immediately following
                  the Company's Annual Meeting.

         (b)      Following payment of the Designated Percentage, the balance of
                  each director's retainers to be paid in Stock, if any, shall
                  be prorated and paid on the Payment Dates remaining until the
                  next Annual Meeting.

         (c)      Unless otherwise specified by resolution of the Board of
                  Directors, any compensation to be paid in Stock and any grant
                  of Stock shall be made on or as of the Payment Date next
                  succeeding the date on which such payments have been earned or
                  are otherwise payable or issuable.

         (d)      The number of shares to be issued in payment of retainers and
                  fees denominated in dollars shall be calculated on the basis
                  of the Fair Market Value on the Payment Date as of which such
                  shares are issued.

8.       DEFERRALS AND RESTRICTIONS ON PAYMENT. Payment of shares issuable under
         Section 6 shall, at the Participant's election (which election must be
         in writing and shall be delivered to the Corporate Secretary of the
         Company no later than six months prior to the next Annual Meeting), be
         deferred in accordance with a deferral election made by the Participant
         and filed with the Company. The Company shall transfer shares of Stock
         or other assets equal in value to a number of shares as to which
         payment is deferred to a trust to secure the Company's obligation to
         pay shares of Stock to the Participant in the future, but any assets
         transferred shall remain subject to the claims of the Company's
         creditors and any interest the Participant may be deemed to have in the
         trust may not be sold, hypothecated or transferred (including, without
         limitation, transfer by gift or donation). The Company shall distribute
         Stock deferred pursuant to this Section 8 in accordance with elections
         made by each participant on forms approved by the Board; provided,
         however, that upon a Change of Control, as hereinafter defined, all
         Stock previously deferred shall be issued immediately, except that a
         Participant may elect that shares which would be distributed to him or
         to her upon a Change of Control may continue to be held in trust for
         distribution in accordance with this Section 8. Such election with
         respect to Change of Control described in the preceding sentence shall
         be effective no earlier than the Annual Meeting following such
         election. The Participant's right to receive the shares issued under
         Section 6 shall not be affected by a termination of the trust described
         herein.

9.       SHARE CERTIFICATES, VOTING AND OTHER RIGHTS. The certificates for
         shares issued hereunder shall be issued in the name of the Participant
         or the trustee of the trust described in Section 8, as the case may be,
         and shall be held by such Participant or such trustee; provided,
         however, that each Participant shall be entitled to all rights of a
         shareholder with respect to Stock for all such shares issued in his
         name, including the right to vote the shares, and the Participant or
         the trustee, as the case may be, shall receive all dividends and other
         distributions paid or made with respect thereto.

10.      PROCEDURES WITH RESPECT TO STOCK OPTIONS.

         (a)      Each Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan:

                  (i)      will consist of an option to purchase shares of Stock
                           at a purchase price not less than 100 percent of the
                           Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant;

                                       3
<PAGE>

                  (ii)     will be exercisable during the time period specified
                           in the terms of the grant and reflected in an
                           agreement entered into with a Participant, but such
                           exercise shall not be earlier than one year after the
                           date of grant of the Stock Option and not later than
                           15 years after the date of grant of the Stock Option,
                           with the determination of the final date of exercise
                           of the Stock Option to be made at the time of grant.

         (b)      In the event of the death of a Participant who holds
                  unexercised Stock Options awarded under the Plan, the Stock
                  Option may be exercised by a beneficiary designated by the
                  Participant prior to his death, or if no beneficiary is
                  designated, by the executor or executrix of the Participant's
                  estate or by the person or persons to whom the Participant's
                  rights have passed by will or the laws of descent and
                  distribution, such exercise to be in accordance with the
                  provisions of the Plan and to the same extent as though the
                  Participant were then living.

11.      FRACTIONS OF SHARES. The Company shall not issue fractions of shares.
         Whenever under the terms of the Plan a fractional share would otherwise
         be required to be issued, the Participant or the trustee of the trust
         described in Section 8, as the case may be, shall be paid in cash for
         such fractional share based upon the same Fair Market Value which was
         utilized to determine the number of shares to be issued on the relevant
         Payment Date.

12.      CHANGE OF CONTROL. "CHANGE OF CONTROL" SHALL MEAN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:

         (a)      Stock Acquisition. The acquisition, by any individual, entity
                  or group [within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2)
                  of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
                  "Exchange Act")] (a "Person") of beneficial ownership (within
                  the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act)
                  of 20 percent or more of either (i) the then outstanding
                  shares of Stock of the Company, or (ii) the combined voting
                  power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company
                  entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the
                  "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however,
                  that for purposes of this subsection (a), the following
                  acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (i) any
                  acquisition directly from the Company; (ii) any acquisition by
                  the Company; (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit
                  plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company
                  or any corporation controlled by the Company; or (iv) any
                  acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which
                  complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of subsection (c) of
                  this Section 12; or

         (b)      Board Composition. Individuals who, as of the date hereof,
                  constitute the Board of Directors (the "Incumbent Board")
                  cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the
                  Board of Directors; provided, however, that any individual
                  becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose
                  election or nomination for election by the Company's
                  shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of
                  the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be
                  considered as though such individual were a member of the
                  Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
                  individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a
                  result of an actual or threatened election contest with
                  respect to the election or removal of directors or other
                  actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or
                  on behalf of a Person other than the Board of Directors; or

         (c)      Business Combination. Approval by the shareholders of the
                  Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale or

                  the Company or its principal subsidiary that is not subject,
                  as a matter of law or contract, to approval by the Surface
                  Transportation Board or any successor agency or regulatory
                  body having jurisdiction over such transactions (the "Agency")
                  (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless, following

                           resulting from such Business Combination (including,
                           without limitation, a corporation which as a result
                           of such transaction owns the Company or its principal

                  (ii)     no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from
                           such Business Combination or any employee benefit
                           plan (or related trust) of the Company or such
                           corporation resulting from such Business Combination)
                           beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or
                           more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of
                           common stock of the corporation resulting from such
                           Business Combination or the combined voting power of
                           the then outstanding voting securities of such
                           corporation except to the extent that such ownership
                           existed prior to the Business Combination; and

                  (iii)    at least a majority of the members of the Board
                           resulting from such Business Combination were members

                           of the initial agreement, or of the action of the
                           Board of Directors, providing for such Business
                           Combination; or

                  regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of

                  certificates for the shares by an adjustment, equal in value
                  to such liability, in the number of shares to be transferred

14.      AMENDMENT. This Plan may be amended by action of a majority of the
         Board of Directors, and approval by shareholders shall not be required
         for any amendment which does not authorize additional shares to be
         subject to the Plan.

15.      ADMINISTRATION. The Plan will be administered by the Board. Except as
         otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, the Board will have the

         power and complete discretion with respect to any award of Stock or
         Stock Options to determine the terms and conditions of the award, the
         number of shares of Stock to be covered by the award, the time or times
         when an award will be granted, when Stock Options may be exercised, and
         the manner in which payment may be made upon the exercise of Stock
         Options. If the Board determines that a spin-off, stock dividend or
         other distribution not in the form of cash or Stock, consolidation,
         merger, dissolution, liquidation or other similar corporate transaction
         or event affects a Stock Option such that an adjustment is appropriate
         to preserve the intended benefits of a Stock Option, the Board may make
         such equitable changes or adjustments in the Stock Option as it deems
         necessary or appropriate. The Board may adopt rules and regulations for
         carrying out the Plan. The interpretation and construction of any
         provision of the Plan by the Board will be final and conclusive.

the first day of the month following the deferral and shall compound thereafter
at an annual rate of 16% until all amounts are finally paid to the Participant.

                  Credits to the Stock Account shall be in full and fractional
units based on the closing price for CSX common stock as reported on the New
York Stock Exchange - Composite Listing ("NYSE") on the date the fees would
otherwise have been paid to the Participant. Dividends shall be credited in full
and fractional units to the account based on the number of units in the account
on the record date and calculated based on the closing price for CSX common
stock on the dividend payment date.

                  A Participant, while a Member, may elect prior to the
beginning of any year to transfer all or any portion of amounts deferred,
including all earnings thereon, to an Enhanced Interest Account, an Interest
Account and/or a Stock Account, provided, however, that no transfer may be made
out of an Enhanced Interest Account.

         6.       Distribution of Deferred Director's Fees

                  Amounts deferred under the Plan and credited to an Interest
Account or Stock Account shall be distributed to a Participant from the
account(s) maintained in respect of his account in a lump sum at the beginning
of the year following the year in which a Participant ceases to be a Member,
unless he shall elect installments as provided below. Amounts deferred and
credited to an Enhanced Interest Account shall be distributed over an
installment period elected by the Participant.

                  The value of a Participant's Interest Account shall be the sum
of amounts deferred and all interest accrued thereon. The value of an Enhanced
Interest Account shall be the sum of amounts deferred and all interest accrued
thereon. The value of a Stock Account shall be the value of the units in a
Participant's account based on the closing price for CSX common stock as
reported on the NYSE on the last business day of the year in which a Participant
ceases to be a Member, unless he shall elect annual or quarterly installments as
provided below. The value of a Stock Account will fluctuate in value in line
with the fluctuation in the price of CSX common stock. There can be no assurance
on the market value of the phantom units either at the time of acquisition or at
any time during the distribution period, nor can there be any assurance as to
the continuation of dividends.

                  Distribution of Deferred amounts shall begin with either the
first day of the calendar year immediately following the year in which a
Participant shall cease to be a Member for any reason other than death, or the
first day of the calendar year immediately following the year in which a
Participant shall cease to be a Member and shall have attained age 65, as the
Member may elect.

                  If installment payments are elected for Interest or Stock
Accounts, payments shall be made, as the Participant may elect, for either (a)
five years, (b) ten years, or (c) any other designated period which shall be not
less than the period he was a Participant nor exceed ten years. For Enhanced
Interest Accounts, the Participant may elect to receive payments over (a) five
years, (b) ten years, or (c) fifteen years.

                  For Interest Accounts and Stock Accounts, installments shall
be on an annual or quarterly basis as the Member may elect. The amount of each
installment shall be determined by multiplying the value of the Participant's
account at the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the installment
date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be one (1) and the denominator
of which shall be the number of installment payments over which payment of such
amount is to be made, less the number of installment payments theretofore made.

                  For Enhanced Interest Accounts, payments shall be in level
installments on a monthly basis over the number of years (five, ten, or fifteen)
as elected by the Member.

                  The elections provided in this Section 6 shall be made in
writing in a Participant's Election to Participate and shall be subject to all
other provisions of the Plan relating thereto and to the deferral of receipt of
Director's Fees.

                  In the event a Participant shall die while he is a Member, the
amount appearing as the credit balance of his account, or the value of the units
in his Stock Account, shall be paid in either a lump sum or installments
(consistent with the election made by the Participant as described in this
Section 6) to his Designated Beneficiary. Each Participant may file with the
Secretary a Designation of Beneficiary for this purpose.

                  In the event a Participant shall die after he ceases to be a
Member and before he has received complete distribution from his account, any
credit balance of his account, including interest, or the value of the units in
his Stock Account, shall be paid to his Designated Beneficiary consistent with
the election made by the Participant as described in this Section 6.

                  In the event a Participant shall not file a Designation of
Beneficiary, or his Designated Beneficiary is not living at the Participant's
death, the balance credited to his account, including interest, shall be paid in
full to his estate not later than the tenth day of the calendar year following
his date of death.

         7.       Death Benefit

                  For Participants electing to have deferred Director's Fees
credited to an Enhanced Interest Account who die while a Member, a death benefit
equal to the greater of three times the amount of Director's Fees deferred or
the amount of Director's Fees deferred plus accumulated interest will be paid to
the Member's Designated Beneficiary. For Participants in an Enhanced Interest
Account who die after ceasing to be a Member, a lump sum death benefit of
$10,000 will be paid to the Designated Beneficiary. This death benefit shall
apply only to Director's Fees deferred after December 31, 1985 and which have
been credited to an Enhanced Interest Account. This death benefit shall not
apply to any amounts credited to an Enhanced Interest Account by reason of
transfer from an Interest Account and/or a Stock Account.

                  In the event a Participant shall not file a Designation of
Beneficiary, or the Designated Beneficiary is not living at the Participant's
death, the death benefit shall be paid to the Participant's estate.

         8.       Amendment or Termination of Election to Participate

                  A Participant may amend or terminate his Election to
Participate by written request to the Secretary, which shall become effective
for the calendar year following the year in which his request is

                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>

made; provided, however, that no amendment shall be made to contravene the
deferral of Director's Fees previously made under the provisions of this Plan.

                  In the event a Participant amends or terminates his Election
to Participate and remains a Member, he shall not be entitled to receive any
distribution from his account until he ceases to be a Member, and distributions
shall be made only as provided in Section 6 of this Plan.

         9.       Obligation of Csx

                  This Plan shall be unfunded and credits to the memorandum
account(s) of each Participant shall not be set apart for him nor otherwise made
available so that he may draw upon it at any time, except as provided in this
Plan. Neither any Participant nor his Designated Beneficiary shall have any
right, title, or interest in such credits or any claim against them. Payments
may only be made at such times and in the manner expressly provided in this
Plan. CSX's contractual obligation is to make the payments when due. No notes or
security for the payment of any Participant's account shall be issued by CSX.

         10.      Change of Control

                  10.1 If a Change of Control has occurred, the Administrator
         shall cause CSX to contribute to the Trust, within 7 days of such
         Change of Control, a lump sum payment equal to the unfunded aggregate
         value of the amount each Participant would be eligible to receive
         (determined under 10.2 below) as of the latest Valuation Date
         coinciding with or preceding the date of Change of Control to the
         extent such amounts are not already in the Trust. The aggregate value
         of the amount of the lump sum to be contributed to the Trust pursuant
         to this Section 10 shall be determined by CSX's Accountants after
         consultation with the entity then maintaining the Plan's records.
         Thereafter, CSX's Accountants shall annually determine as of a
         Valuation Date for each Participant not receiving a lump sum payment
         pursuant to Section 10.2, below, the amounts which would be payable
         under such subsection were a Change of Control to occur at the date of
         such determination. To the extent that the value of the assets held in
         the Trust relating to this Plan do not equal the aggregate amount
         described in the preceding sentence, at the time of the valuation, as
         determined by CSX's Accountants, CSX shall make a lump sum contribution
         to the Trust equal to the difference. In no event, however, shall the
         Company's contribution to the Trust be less than the amount that would
         have been contributed thereto with respect to liabilities relating to
         the Plan (including related administrative and investment expenses),
         pursuant to and at the time and in the manner provided under Section
         l(h) of the Trust.

                  10.2 In the event a Change of Control has occurred, the
         trustee of the Trust shall, within 45 days of such Change of Control,
         pay to each Participant not making an election under 10.3 below, a lump
         sum payment equal to the amount the Participant would have been
         entitled to receive determined under Section 6 had he ceased to be a
         Member and selected an immediate lump sum payment. The amount of each
         Participant's lump sum payment shall be determined by CSX's
         Accountants.

                  10.3 Each Participant may elect in a time and manner
         determined by the Administrator but in no event later than December
         31, 1996, or the occurrence of a Change of Control, if earlier, to have
         amounts and benefits determined and payable under the terms of the Plan
         as if a Change of Control had not occurred. New Participants in the
         Plan may elect in a time and

                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>

         manner determined by the Administrator, but in no event later than 90
         days after becoming a Participant, to have amounts and benefits
         determined and payable under the terms of the Plan as if a Change of
         Control had not occurred. A Participant who has made an election, as
         set forth in the two preceding sentences, may, at any time and from
         time to time, change that election; provided, however, a change of
         election that is made within one year of a Change of Control shall be
         invalid.

                  10.4 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary,
         each Participant who has made an election under Section 10.3, above,
         may elect within 90 days following a Change of Control, in a time and
         manner determined by the Administrator, to receive a lump sum payment
         calculated under the provisions of 10.3, above, determined as of the
         Valuation Date next preceding such payment, except that such calculated
         amount shall be reduced by 5% and such reduction shall be irrevocably
         forfeited to CSX by the Participant. Furthermore, as a result of such
         election, the Participant shall no longer be eligible to participate or
         otherwise benefit from the Plan. Payments under this Section 10.4 shall
         be made not later than 7 days following receipt by CSX of the
         Participant's election. The Administrator shall, no later than 7 days
         after a Change of Control has occurred, give written notification to
         each Participant eligible to make an election under this Section 10.4,
         that a Change of Control has occurred and informing such Participant of
         the availability of the election.

         11.      Claims Against Participant's Account

                  No credits to the account of any Participant under this Plan
shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be
void. Nor shall any credit be subject to attachment or legal process for debts
or other obligations. Nothing contained in this Plan shall give any Participant
any interest, lien, or claim against any specific asset of CSX. No Participant
or his Designated Beneficiary shall have any rights other than as a general
creditor of CSX.

         12.      Competition by Participant

                  In the event a Participant ceases to be a Member and becomes a
proprietor, officer, partner, employee, director, or otherwise becomes
affiliated with any business that is in competition with the Corporation, the
entire balance credited to his account, including interest, or the value of the
units in his Stock Account, if prior to a Change of Control, may, if directed by
the Board in its sole discretion, be paid immediately to him in a lump sum.
Following a Change of Control, such a decision by the Board is subject to the
approval of the Benefits Trust Committee.

         13.      Payment of Credit Balance to Participant's Account

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to a
Change of Control, the Board may, in its sole discretion, direct payment in a
lump sum of any or all of the credit balance appearing at the time in the
account of a Participant, and/or of the value of the units in his Stock Account.
Following a Change of Control, such action by the Board is subject to the
approval of the Benefits Trust Committee.

                  Further, the obligations of CSX and the benefit due any
Participant or Designated Beneficiary under the Plan shall be reduced by any
amount received in regard thereto under the Trust or any similar trust or other
vehicle.

         14.      Joint and Several Obligation

                  To the extent reflected by resolutions of the applicable
boards of directors, obligations for benefits under this Plan shall be joint and
several.

         15.      Amendment or Termination

                  Prior to a Change of Control, this Plan may be altered,
amended, suspended, or terminated at any time by the Board, on the
recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, provided, however,
that no alteration, amendment, suspension, or termination shall be made to this
Plan which would result in the distribution of amounts credited to the accounts
of all Participants in any manner other than is provided in this Plan without
the consent of all Participants.
