                         Background and Purpose of Plan

      2.1 Purpose. The Company has established this Deferred Compensation Plan
to provide Executive Resource Employees who are participants in the Incentive
Plan with the option to

                                       3
<PAGE>

irrevocably defer the receipt of all or a portion of the bonus to which such
participants would otherwise be entitled, subject to the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth.

      2.2 Creation of Deferred Bonus Account. Each of the following shall be
credited to a Deferred Bonus Account established by the Company for each
Participant:

      (a) any bonus amounts voluntarily deferred by the Participant pursuant to
Article III (Deferral of Bonuses by Participant) hereof; and/or

      (b) any Non-Cash Bonus amounts deferred in the discretion of the Committee
pursuant to Article IV (Deferral of Bonuses by Committee) hereof.

      Any bonus amounts voluntarily deferred by the Participant will be credited
to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account in the form of Cash Units or Share
Units, in the discretion of the Participant, as set forth in the Plan. The
deferral of any Non-Cash Bonus amounts caused by action of the Committee will be
credited to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account in the form of Cash Units or
Share Units as the Committee, in its sole discretion, may decide in accordance
with the Plan.

                                   ARTICLE III

                       Deferral of Bonuses by Participant

      3.1 Participant's Election to Defer. A Participant voluntarily may elect
to defer, in the form of Cash Units or Share Units, all or a portion of his or
her bonus to be awarded under the Incentive Plan by filing a written election
with the Committee on forms prescribed by the Committee. Such election must
include the following:

      (a) percentage of bonus to be deferred;

      (b) the form of deferral, being either Cash Units, Share Units or a
combination of the two and the percentage allocations of such;

      (c) a designation of beneficiary as set forth in Article VI (Designation
of Beneficiaries); and

      (d) an irrevocable election of a method of payment as set forth in Section
3.10 hereof.

      Any such voluntary election by the Participant shall apply only to bonuses
for the year specified in the election.

      3.2 Amount of Deferral The amount of bonus to be deferred in any year
shall be designated by the Participant as a percentage of such Participant's
bonus in multiples of five percent (5%) but shall not be less than ten percent
(10%).

      3.3 Time of Election. A separate election to defer must be filed for each
year and must be received by the Company no later than forty-five (45) days
before the end of the year in which the bonus is earned. Any election by a
Participant with respect to a bonus in a given year will not

                                       4
<PAGE>

preclude a different action with respect to bonuses in subsequent years,
consistent with the provisions of this Article III with respect to the giving of
notice of deferral election.

      3.4 Crediting Share Units. Share Units shall be credited to a
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account at the time the bonus otherwise would have
been paid had no election to defer been made. The number of Share Units to be
credited to the Deferred Bonus Account shall be determined by dividing the
portion of bonus to be deferred by the average closing price for Shares as
published in the consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under
the caption "New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other
publication selected by the Committee for the ten (10) day period prior to the
day on which the bonus otherwise would have been paid. Any fractional Share
Units shall also be credited to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account. Share
Units shall not entitle any person to the rights of a shareholder.

      3.5 Crediting Dividend Equivalents. For Share Units, the Company shall
credit the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account with Dividend Equivalents being
equal to the dividends declared on the Company's Shares. The crediting shall
occur as of the date on which said dividends are paid. The number of Share Units
to be credited to the Deferred Bonus Account shall be calculated by dividing the
Dividend Equivalents by the average closing price for Shares as published in the
consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under the caption "New
York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other publication selected
by the Committee for the period of ten (10) trading days prior to the day on
which the dividends are paid on the Company's Shares. Any fractional Share Units
shall also be credited to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account.

      3.6 Crediting Cash Units. Cash Units shall be credited to a Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account at the time the bonus would otherwise have been paid had
no election to defer been made.

      3.7 Crediting Interest Equivalents. For Cash Units credited to a
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, the Company shall credit such
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account on a quarterly basis with an Interest
Equivalent.

      3.8 Share Unit Conversion. Immediately upon termination of the
Participant's employment with the Company, and so prior to the commencement of
any payout or distribution of any amounts hereunder, the Participant may make a
one-time election to convert to Cash Units all or a portion of the balance of
Share Units in such Participant's Deferred Bonus Account. Any Share Units so
converted to Cash Units as a result of this one-time conversion election shall
be valued at the average closing price for Shares as published in the
consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under the caption "New
York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other publication selected
by the Committee for the ten (10) day period immediately prior to such one-time
conversion election.

      3.9 Time of Payment. Except as provided in Article V ("Change in Control")
hereof, all payments of a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account shall be made at,
or shall commence on, the date selected by the Participant in accordance with
the terms of this Article III.

            (a) Election of Benefit Commencement Date. The date of payment or
distribution must be irrevocably specified by the Participant in his or her
written notice of

                                       5
<PAGE>

election. The Participant may elect to defer the receipt of all or a specified
portion of such Participant's bonus to:

            (1)   the first day of any calendar year provided such date is at
                  least six (6) months after the end of the quarter in which the
                  bonus is earned; or

            (2)   the first day of the calendar year following the date of:

                  (i)   the Participant's retirement;

                  (ii)  final determination that the Participant has a Permanent
                        and Total Disability;

                  (iii) termination of the Participant's employment with the
                        Company;

                  (iv)  death of the Participant. Upon the death of a
                        Participant prior to the final payment of all amounts
                        credited to his or her Deferred Bonus Account, the
                        balance of the Deferred Bonus Account shall be paid in
                        accordance with Article VI ("Designation of
                        Beneficiaries") hereof, commencing on the first day of
                        the calendar year following the year of death.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.9, and except
as provided in Article V ("Change in Control") hereof, in no event shall any
payment or distribution be made within six (6) months of the bonus being earned
or awarded. The benefit commencement date may not be later than the third
calendar year following the date of: (i) Participant's retirement, or (ii)
termination of Participant's employment.

            (b) Acceleration of Benefit Commencement Date Prior to Payment. At
any time prior to the commencement of any payment or distribution of a
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, such Participant may request in writing to
accelerate the receipt of all or a specified portion of such deferred bonus
amounts to the first day of any calendar year; provided, however, that such date
is at least six (6) months after the end of the quarter in which the bonus is
earned. Any such acceleration will be subject to a penalty equal to a five
percent (5%) reduction in the balance of the Participant's Deferred Bonus
Account, which shall be forfeited to the Company.

      3.10 Method of Payment. A Participant in this portion of the Deferred
Compensation Plan shall have the option of:

            (a) selecting a lump-sum payment;

            (b) selecting a series of approximately equivalent annual
      installments (adjusted as necessary to reflect Dividend Equivalents and/or
      Interest Equivalents accrued during the installment payout period) in such
      number of installments as the Participant shall specify (not exceeding
      twenty (20) installments); or

            (c) not selecting a method of payment at the time the Form for
      Deferred Payment Election/Designation of Beneficiary is prepared. If the
      Participant does not select a method of payment, he or she must, at least
      twelve (12) months prior to the time the deferral amount is scheduled to
      be paid, notify the Company as to the specific method of payment

                                       6
<PAGE>

      which will be either in a lump sum or in approximately equivalent annual
      installments. Failure to provide appropriate notification to the Company
      will result in a lump sum payment on the deferral payment date.

      Participant shall receive in cash all deferred compensation credited to
such Participant's Deferred Bonus Account. Share Units credited to the
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account shall be valued at the average closing
price for Shares as published in the consolidated trading tables of the Wall
Street Journal (under the caption "New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions") or any other publication selected by the Committee for the ten
(10) day period prior to each new calendar year.

      3.11 Subsequent Change in Method of Payment Election.

      (a) Change in Method of Payment Prior to Commencement of Distribution or
Payment. With the approval of the Committee, and at any time not later than
twelve (12) months prior to the commencement of any payment or distribution of
the amounts credited to the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, a Participant
in this portion of the Plan may file a written request with regard to the method
of payment (i.e., a series of installments versus lump-sum payout), on a form
prescribed by the Committee, which will revoke all such earlier or prior
elections with regard to the method of payment (i.e., a series of installments
versus lump-sum payout), and such new choice as to method of payment will be
applied both to amounts previously credited to the Participant's current
Deferred Bonus Account balance, as well as to amounts to be credited to such
Deferred Bonus Account balance prospectively. Any such new or subsequent
election that is made less than twelve (12) months prior to the commencement of
any payment or distribution of the amounts credited to the Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account, will be null and void, and the Participant's most recent
preceding timely election will be reinstated.

      (b) Change in Method of Payment Following Commencement of Distribution or
Payment. After payment or distribution of amounts credited to the Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account has commenced, the Participant may not change the period
of time for which such amounts are payable. However the Participant may convert
installment payments to a lump sum distribution subject to a penalty equal to a
five percent (5%) reduction in the balance of the Participant's Deferred Bonus
Account, which shall be forfeited to the Company.

      3.12 Hardship Distribution. Participant may request a modification in the
payment terms hereunder only in the event of severe financial hardship and only
to the extent reasonably necessary to eliminate the hardship. Such request shall
specify in detail the grounds for the requested modification and shall be
referred to the Committee. A qualifying severe financial hardship must be caused
by accident, illness, or event beyond the control of the Participant. The
decision of the Committee with respect to the requested modification shall be
solely at the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with its evaluation
of the exigencies of the situation. Such decision shall be binding on the
Company and Participant.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                        Deferral of Bonuses by Committee

      4.1 Committee's Election to Defer. Each year in conjunction with the award
of any bonus to the Participant, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
cause to be credited to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account in the form of
either Cash Units or Share Units, a specified dollar amount representing all or
a portion of such Participant's bonus for that year (the "Non-Cash Bonus").

      4.2 Crediting Share Units. Share Units shall be credited to a
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account at the time the bonus would otherwise have
been paid had no Committee action to defer been taken. The number of Share Units
credited to the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account shall be determined by
dividing the Non-Cash Bonus by the average closing price for Shares as published
in the consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under the caption
"New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other publication
selected by the Committee for the ten (10) day period prior to the date such
bonus otherwise would have been paid had no Committee action been taken. Any
fractional Share Units shall also be credited to such Participant's Deferred
Bonus Account. Share Units shall not entitle any person to the rights of a
stockholder.

      4.3 Crediting Dividend Equivalents. The Company shall credit the
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account with Dividend Equivalents being equal to
the dividends declared on the Company's Shares. The crediting shall occur as of
the date on which said dividends are paid. The number of Share Units to be
credited to the Deferred Bonus Account shall be calculated by dividing the
Dividend Equivalents by the average closing price for Shares as published in the
consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under the caption "New
York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other publication selected
by the Committee for the period of ten (10) trading days prior to the day on
which the dividends are paid on the Company's Shares. Any fractional Share Units
shall also be credited to a Participant's Deferred Bonus Account.

      4.4 Crediting Cash Units. Cash Units shall be credited to a Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account at the time the bonus otherwise would have been paid had
no Committee action to defer been taken.

      4.5 Crediting Interest Equivalents. For Cash Units credited to a
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, the Company shall credit such
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account on a quarterly basis with an Interest
Equivalent.

      4.6 Share Unit Conversion. Immediately upon termination of the
Participant's employment with the Company, and so prior to the commencement of
any payout or distribution of any amounts hereunder, the Participant may make a
one-time election to convert to Cash Units all or a portion of the balance of
Share Units in such Participant's Deferred Bonus Account. Any Share Units so
converted to Cash Units as a result of this one-time conversion election shall
be valued at the average closing price for Shares as published in the
consolidated trading tables of the Wall Street Journal (under the caption "New
York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions") or any other publication selected
by the Committee for the ten (10) day period immediately prior to such one-time
conversion election.

                                       8
<PAGE>

      4.7 Time of Payment.

      (a) Benefit Commencement Date Specified by Committee. The Committee will
specify in writing its election of the earliest date of payment or distribution,
and such election shall remain effective until revoked in writing by the
Committee. If the Committee elects a new date with regard to payment or
distribution, such election will apply only prospectively to any additional
Share Units and/or Cash Units to be credited to such Participant's Deferred
Bonus Account by Committee action in accordance with this Article IV. If the
Committee fails to designate a time of payment, payment shall commence on the
first day of the calendar year following the termination of such Participant's
employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.7, in no
event, however, shall the payment date be later than the third calendar year
following the date of: (i) Participant's retirement, or (ii) termination of
Participant's employment.

      (b) Acceleration of Benefit Commencement Date Prior to Payment. At any
time prior to the commencement of any payment or distribution of a Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account, such Participant may request in writing to accelerate
the receipt of all or a specified portion of such deferred bonus amounts to the
first day of any calendar year; provided, however, that such date is at least
six (6) months after the end of the quarter in which the bonus is earned. Any
such acceleration will be subject to a penalty equal to a five percent (5%)
reduction in the balance of the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, which
shall be forfeited to the Company.

      4.8 Method of Payment. The Participant must select a method of payment at
least twelve (12) months prior to the time the deferral amount is scheduled to
be paid, by notifying the Company as to whether the method of payment will be
either:

            (a) a lump sum payment; or

            (b) a series of approximately equivalent annual installments
      (adjusted as necessary to reflect Dividend Equivalents accrued during the
      installment payout period), in such number of installments as the
      Participant shall specify (not exceeding twenty (20) installments).

      If no election is made, payment or distribution of any amounts deferred by
Committee action pursuant to this Article IV (together with the Dividend
Equivalents and/or Interest Equivalents, as the case may be, accrued thereon)
shall be made in a single lump sum on the earliest payment date permitted by the
Committee as provided under Section 4.7 hereof. Share Units credited to the
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account shall be valued at the average closing
price for Shares as published in the consolidated trading tables of the Wall
Street Journal (under the caption "New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions") or any other publication selected by the Committee for the ten
(10) day period prior to each new calendar year.

      4.9 Subsequent Change in Method of Payment Election.

            (a) Change in Method of Payment Prior to Commencement of
Distribution or Payment. With the approval of the Committee, and at any time not
later than twelve (12) months prior to the commencement of any payment or
distribution of the amounts credited to the Participant's Deferred Bonus
Account, a Participant in this portion of the Plan may file a written request
with regard to the method of payment (i.e., a series of installments versus
lump-sum

                                       9
<PAGE>

payout), on a form prescribed by the Committee, which will revoke all such
earlier or prior elections with regard to the method of payment (i.e., a series
of installments versus lump-sum payout), and such new choice as to method of
payment will be applied both to amounts previously credited to the Participant's
current Deferred Bonus Account balance, as well as to amounts to be credited to
such Deferred Bonus Account balance prospectively. Any such new or subsequent
election that is made less than twelve (12) months prior to the commencement of
any payment or distribution of the amounts credited to the Participant's
Deferred Bonus Account, will be null and void, and the Participant's most recent
preceding timely election will be reinstated.

            (b) Change in Method of Payment Following Commencement of
Distribution or Payment. After payment or distribution of amounts credited to
the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account has commenced, the Participant may not
change the period of time for which such amounts are payable. However the
Participant may convert installment payments to a lump sum distribution subject
to a penalty equal to a five percent (5%) reduction in the balance of the
Participant's Deferred Bonus Account, which shall be forfeited to the Company.

                                    ARTICLE V

                                Change in Control

      5.1 Effect of Change in Control on Payment. Anything to the contrary in
this Plan notwithstanding, at any time a Participant may make an election (a
"Change in Control Election") to receive, in a single lump sum payment, upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control, the balance of his or her Deferred Bonus
Account, as of the valuation date immediately preceding the Change in Control.
Any Change in Control Election or revocation of an existing Change in Control
Election shall be null and void if a Change in Control occurs within 12 months
after it is made, and the Participant's most recent preceding Change in Control
Election, if timely made and not revoked at least 12 months before the Change in
Control, shall remain in force. Each such election or revocation shall be in
writing and in conformity with such rules as may be prescribed by the Committee.
If no Change in Control Election is in force upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control, from the date of such Change in Control and for twelve (12) months
thereafter, each Participant, whether or not he or she is still an employee of
the Company, shall have the right to withdraw, in a single lump-sum cash
payment, an amount equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the balance of his or
her Deferred Bonus Account (a "95% Withdrawal"), as of the valuation date
immediately preceding the date of withdrawal; provided, however, that if this
option is exercised, such Participant will forfeit to the Company the remaining
five percent (5%) of the balance of each such account (as of the valuation date
immediately preceding the date of withdrawal) from which the funds are withdrawn
as a penalty. Payments pursuant to a 95% Withdrawal shall be made as soon as
practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days after the Participant notifies
the Committee in writing that he/she is exercising his/her right to undertake a
95% Withdrawal.

      5.2 Amendment in Connection with Change in Control. On or after a Change
in Control, or before, but in connection with, a Change in Control, no action,
including by way of example and not of limitation, the amendment, suspension or
termination of the Plan, shall be taken which would adversely affect the rights
of any Participant or the operation of this Article V with respect to the
balance in the Participant's Accounts immediately before such action.

                                       10

      5.3 Attorney's Fees. The Company shall pay all 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. The Participant shall reimburse the Company for such fees and
expenses at such time as a court of competent jurisdiction, or another
independent third party having similar authority, determines that the
Participant's claim was frivolously brought without reasonable expectation of
success on the merits thereof.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                          Designation of Beneficiaries

      The Participant shall name a beneficiary to receive any payments due such
Participant at the time of death, with the right to change such beneficiary at
any time. In case of a failure of designation or the death of the designated
beneficiary without a designated successor, distribution shall be made to the
person or persons designated as beneficiary in the designation most recently
filed under the Sunoco, Inc. Capital Accumulation Plan, or if no such
designation has been made or the Participant is not participating in such plan,
the surviving spouse of a deceased Participant, or, if there is no surviving
spouse, the children of the Participant in equal shares (the share of any child
who predeceases the Participant to go in equal shares to the issue of such
deceased child), or if there is no surviving spouse, child, or issue of such
children, the estate of the Participant. No designation of beneficiaries shall
be valid unless in writing signed by the Participant, dated and filed with the
Company. Upon the Participant's death, any balance in the Participant's Deferred
Bonus Account is payable under the method elected by the Participant or in such
other manner as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                  Miscellaneous

      7.1 Source of Payments. All payments of deferred bonuses shall be paid in
cash from the general funds of the Company and the Company shall be under no
obligation to segregate any assets in connection with the maintenance of the
Deferred Bonus Account, nor shall anything contained in this Plan nor any action
taken pursuant to the Plan create or be construed to create a trust of any kind,
or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and Participant. Title to the
beneficial ownership of any assets, whether cash or investments, which the
Company may designate to pay the amount credited to the Deferred Bonus Account
shall at all times remain in the Company and Participant shall not have any
property interest whatsoever in any specific assets of the Company.
Participant's interest in the Deferred Bonus Account shall be limited to the
right to receive payments pursuant to the terms of this Plan and such rights to
receive shall be no greater than the right of any other unsecured general
creditor of the Company.

      7.2 Nonalienation of Benefits. Participant shall not have the right to
sell, assign, transfer or otherwise convey or encumber in whole or in part the
right to receive any payment under this Plan except in accordance with Article
VI (Designation of Beneficiaries) hereof.

      7.3 Acceptance of Terms. The terms and conditions of this Plan shall be
binding upon the heirs, beneficiaries, and other successors in interest of
Participant to the same extent that said terms

                                       11

and conditions are binding upon the Participant. This Plan shall not be
construed in any way as an employment contract requiring the Company or
Participant to continue the employment relation.

      7.4 Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the
Committee which may make such rules and regulations and establish such
procedures for the administration of this Plan as it deems appropriate. In the
event of any dispute or disagreements as to the interpretation of this Plan or
of any rules, regulation, or procedure or as to any questioned right or
obligation arising from or related to this Plan, the decision of the Committee
shall be final and binding upon all persons.

      7.5 Adjustments for Changes in Capitalization. The number of Share Units
in the Participant's Deferred Bonus Account shall be appropriately adjusted by
the Committee in the event of changes in the Company's outstanding common stock
by reason of a stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, merger,
consolidation, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or the like, and such
adjustments shall be conclusive.

      7.6 Termination and Amendment. The Plan may be terminated at any time by
the Board of Directors of Sunoco, Inc., and may be amended at any time by the
Committee provided, however, that no such amendment or termination shall
adversely affect the rights of Participants or their beneficiaries with respect
to amounts credited to Deferred Bonus Accounts prior to such amendment or
termination, without the written consent of the Participant.

      7.7 Notices. To be effective, all notices, requests and demands to or upon
the Company or the Participant, as the case may be, shall be in writing, by

                                  SUNOCO, INC.
                            SAVINGS RESTORATION PLAN
                 (Amended and Restated as of September 6, 2001)

I.    STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN

      The Sunoco, Inc. Savings Restoration Plan ("Plan") is established for the
purpose of providing for certain employees benefits which otherwise would be
lost by reason of the restrictive provisions of Section 401(a)(17) and Section
415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") applicable to
the Sunoco, Inc. Capital Accumulation Plan ("SunCAP"). This Plan is the result
of the merger of the Sun Company, Inc. Savings Restoration Plan II ("Plan II")
into the Plan, effective December 21, 1995. The provisions of the Plan and Plan
II prior to the effective date of the merger will remain effective with regard
to those contributions.

      This Plan is an unfunded plan maintained primarily for the purpose of
      providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly
      compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 3(36), 201(2),
      301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
      1974.

II.   ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

      The Plan Administrator (as this term is defined in SunCAP), or its
      delegate, ("Plan Administrator") shall administer the Plan. The Plan
      Administrator shall have full authority to determine all questions arising
      in connection with the Plan. The Plan Administrator will also interpret
      the Plan, adopt procedural rules, and may employ and rely on such legal
      counsel, such actuaries, such accountants and such agents as it may deem
      advisable to assist in the administration of the Plan. Decisions of the
      Plan Administrator shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

III.  PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN

      The Plan Administrator shall select the employees eligible to participate
      in the Plan for the next succeeding calendar year from among the
      participants in SunCAP whose employing corporation participates in SunCAP
      and adopts this Plan (hereinafter referred to as a "participating
      employer" which term also includes Sunoco, Inc. (the "Company")). The
      participants in SunCAP selected for participation in this Plan shall be
      those SunCAP participants that the Plan Administrator reasonably believes
      will have compensation in excess of the limitations on compensation
      imposed under the terms of SunCAP by reason of Sections 401(a)(17) of the
      Code (the "Compensation Cap") and/or will exceed the limitations on
      contributions imposed under the terms of SunCAP by reason of Section 415
      of the Code ("Annual Additions Limit") during the succeeding calendar
      year.

                                       1

IV.   BENEFITS PROVIDED UNDER THE PLAN

      1.    Participant Contributions

            A.    Compensation Cap Limitation. If a participant's Basic
                  Contributions (as this term is defined in SunCAP) to SunCAP
                  may be limited due to the imposition of the Compensation Cap,
                  the participant may elect, before the beginning of any payroll
                  period during which the participant is subject to the
                  Compensation Cap, to contribute on a pretax basis to the
                  participating employer by which the participant is employed,
                  any remaining percentage of such Basic Contributions which the
                  participant was otherwise prevented from making.

            B.    Annual Additions Limitation. If a participant's Basic
                  Contributions to SunCAP may be limited due to the imposition
                  of the Annual Additions Limit, the participant may elect,
                  before the beginning of the payroll period during which the
                  Annual Addition Limit is reached, to contribute on a pretax
                  basis to the participating employer by which the participant
                  is employed, any remaining percentage of such Basic
                  Contributions which the participant was otherwise prevented
                  from making.

            C.    Method of Making Participant Contributions. Participant
                  contributions, as determined above, will be withheld from the
                  compensation payable to the participant for services rendered
                  to the participating employer after the date of the election
                  and credited to a book account maintained for the participant
                  by or on behalf of the participating employer as of the date
                  such contributions would have been made to SunCAP. In
                  determining the percentage of a participant's compensation to
                  be contributed on a pretax basis under this Plan, no change in
                  a participant's Basic Contributions during a calendar year for
                  purposes of SunCAP shall be effective with respect to this
                  Plan until after such change is made. Without further action
                  by the participant, the choices specified in the participant's
                  election shall continue and be applied until such time as (i)
                  the Plan Administrator determines that such participant is no
                  longer eligible to participate in the Plan, (ii) the
                  participant provides a written election changing such choices,
                  or (iii) the participant provides a written election
                  terminating further contributions by the participant.

      2.    Participating Employer Contribution

            A participant's participating employer shall maintain, or cause to
            be maintained, a book account for such participant to which the
            participating employer shall credit an amount equal to the Matching
            Employer Contributions (as this term is defined in SunCAP) that the
            participating employer would have made on the participant's behalf
            to SunCAP had the

                                       2
<PAGE>

            participant's Basic Contributions continued to be made to SunCAP,
            instead of to the participating employer under this Plan.

      3.    Nonforfeitability of and Earnings on Book Accounts

            A.    Nonforfeitability. All amounts credited to book accounts on
                  behalf of participants shall be nonforfeitable.

            B.    Earnings. Participant and participating employer contributions
                  will be credited to book accounts as of the date such
                  contributions would have been made to SunCAP. All amounts
                  credited to book accounts shall be deemed to have been
                  invested in Fund C established under SunCAP and such book
                  accounts shall be revalued daily as if they had been invested
                  in Fund C, except as provided in the following sentence.
                  Effective January 1, 1996, all amounts credited to book
                  accounts shall be deemed to have been invested in any of the
                  Funds established under SunCAP, and may be transferred among
                  the Funds, in accordance with the elections made by the
                  participant under this Plan, pursuant to procedures and
                  limitations in effect under SunCAP.

V.    DISTRIBUTIONS

      1.    Lump-Sum Distribution

            Each participating employer shall distribute to each participant in
            the Plan employed by it for whom it maintains book accounts or his
            beneficiary under SunCAP an amount in cash equal to 100% of the
            value of his book account(s) attributable to all participant
            contributions and employer contributions (and investment earnings on
            such contributions), for which an election has not been made
            pursuant to Section 2 of this Article V, upon the termination of
            employment of such participant under circumstances entitling him or
            his beneficiary to a distribution of the participant's interest in
            SunCAP whether or not a distribution is made at that time for
            SunCAP.

      2.    Ten-Year Certain Option

            Each participant may irrevocably elect, prior to the time a lump-sum
            distribution is required to be made pursuant to Section 1 of Article
            V, with respect to the value of the participant's book account(s)
            attributable to all participant contributions and employer
            contributions (and investment earnings on such contributions) for
            all years of the Plan, to waive the right to receive a lump-sum
            distribution of such contributions (and investment earnings on such
            contributions) (the "Ten-Year Certain Amounts") at termination of
            employment as provided in Section 1 of this Article V, and to
            receive a distribution of all Ten-Year Certain Amounts as determined
            under this Section 2.

                                       3
<PAGE>

            The Ten-Year Certain Amounts shall be distributed commencing no
            later than two months after the time lump-sum amounts are
            distributable pursuant to Section 1 of this Article V, in a series
            of annual distributions. The participant will select the number (not
            to exceed ten) of such annual distributions. The amount of each
            annual distribution shall be equal to the value of the account
            balance on the distribution date, divided by the number of annual
            distributions remaining as of the date the participant's account is
            valued for the annual distribution. The final annual distribution
            shall include 100% of the value of the participant's book
            account(s).

            Undistributed Ten-Year Certain Amounts shall remain credited to the
            participant's book account(s) and shall be deemed to be invested in
            accordance with the provisions of Section 3 of Article IV. In the
            event of the death of the participant prior to distribution of all
            Ten-Year Certain Amounts, any undistributed Ten-Year Certain Amounts
            shall be paid to the participant's beneficiary under SunCAP as soon
            as is administratively feasible "

      3.    Acceleration of Payment upon Change in Control

            A.    Anything to the contrary in this Plan notwithstanding:

                  (i)   At any time, a participant may make an election (a
                        "Change in Control Election") to receive, in a single
                        lump sum payment upon the occurrence of a Change in
                        Control, the value of his book accounts under the Plan
                        as of the Change in Control. Any Change in Control
                        Election or revocation of an existing Change in Control
                        Election shall be null and void if a Change in Control
                        occurs within 12 months after it is made, and the
                        participant's most recent preceding Change in Control
                        Election, if timely made and not revoked at least 12
                        months before the Change in Control, shall remain in
                        force. Each such election or revocation shall be made in
                        writing and in conformity with such rules as may be
                        prescribed by the Plan Administrator.

                  (ii)  If no Change in Control Election is in force upon the
                        occurrence of a Change in Control, from the date of such
                        Change of Control and for twelve (12) months thereafter,
                        each participant, whether or not he is still an employee
                        of the Company, shall have the right to withdraw, in a
                        single lump-sum cash payment, an amount equal to
                        ninety-five percent (95%) of the value of his book
                        accounts under the Plan (a "95% Withdrawal"); provided,
                        however, that if this option is exercised, such
                        participant will forfeit to the Company the remaining
                        five percent (5%) of the value of his book accounts as
                        of the time of the withdrawal. Payments pursuant to a
                        95% Withdrawal shall be made as soon as practicable, but
                        no later than thirty (30) days after

                                       4
<PAGE>

                        the participant notifies the Plan Administrator in
                        writing that he is exercising his right to elect a 95%
                        Withdrawal.

                  (iii) On or after a Change in Control, no action, including by
                        way of example and not 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 the Plan with respect to all amounts
                        credited to book accounts on behalf of participants on
                        the date of the Change in Control.

                  (iv)  The Company shall pay all reasonable legal fees and
                        related expenses incurred by a participant in seeking to
                        obtain or enforce any payment, benefit or other right
                        such participant may be entitled to under the Plan after
                        a Change in Control; provided, however, that the
                        participant shall be required to repay any such amounts
                        to the Company 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.

            B.    Definitions.

                        the election of directors (the "Outstanding Company
                        Voting Securities"); provided, however, that, for

                        majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent
                        Board shall be considered as though such individual were

                        Company or any of its subsidiaries (each, a "Business
                        Combination"), in each case unless, following such
                        Business Combination, (a) all or substantially all of
                        the individuals and entities that were the beneficial
                        owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the
                        Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior
                        to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly
                        or indirectly, more than 60% of the then-outstanding
                        shares of common stock and the combined voting power of
                        the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
                        generally in the election of directors, as the case may
                        be, of the corporation resulting from such Business
                        Combination (including, without limitation, a
                        corporation that, as a result of such transaction, owns
                        the Company or all or substantially all of the Company's
                        assets either directly or through one or more
                        subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as
                        their ownership immediately prior to such Business
                        Combination of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and

                        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

<PAGE>

                        then-outstanding voting securities of such corporation,
                        except to the extent that such ownership existed prior
                        to the Business Combination, and (c) at least a majority
                        of the members of the board of directors of the

                        were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the
                        execution of the initial agreement or of the action of
                        the Board providing for such Business Combination; or

                  (iv)  Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a
                        complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

      4.    Change in Method of Payment Following Commencement of Distribution
            or Payment

            After payment or distribution of the value of the participant's book
            account(s) attributable to all participant contributions and
            employer contributions (and investment earnings on such
            contributions) for all years of the Plan, has commenced, the
            participant may not change the period of time for which such amounts
            are payable. However the participant may convert installment
            payments (i.e., the "Ten-Year Certain Amounts" determined pursuant
            to Section 2 of this Article V) to a lump sum distribution, subject
            to a penalty equal to a five percent (5%) reduction in the balance
            of the value of the participant's book account(s) attributable to
            all participant contributions and employer contributions (and
            investment earnings on such contributions) for all years of the
            Plan.

      5.    Election of Commencement of Distribution

            Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1 and 2 of this Article
            V, at any time prior to the time a lump-sum distribution is required
            to be made pursuant to Section 1 of Article V, the participant may
            elect to defer commencement of distribution of benefits under
            Section 1 or Section 2 of Article V to a date that is no more than
            three years after the date of the participant's termination of
            employment. If an election is made under this Section 5, such
            election may be changed to a different date within such three-year
            period, subject to a penalty equal to a five percent (5%) reduction
            in the balance of the value of the participant's book account(s)
            attributable to all participant contributions and employer
            contributions (and investment earnings on such contributions) for
            all years of the Plan.

VI.   GENERAL PROVISIONS

            or any participating employer may terminate this Plan with respect
            to its employees participating in SunCAP. If a participating
            employer shall terminate SunCAP with respect to its employees the
            amounts to their

                                       7

            credit in their book accounts established under this Plan shall be
            distributed to such participants in a single sum in accordance with
            the provisions of SunCAP applicable in the event of termination of
            SunCAP or the complete discontinuance of contribution thereto.

      2.    Right to Amend

            This Plan may be amended at any time by the Board, except that no
            such amendment shall reduce for any participant the amount then
            credited to his book account established under this Plan.

      3.    Nonalienation of Benefits

            No right to payment or any other interest under this Plan shall be
            assignable or subject to attachment, execution, or levy of any kind.

      4.    Employment Relationships

            Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as giving any employee the
            right to be retained in the employ of any participating employer.
            Each participating employer in the Plan expressly reserves the right
            to dismiss any employee at any time without regard to the effect
            which such dismissal might have upon him under the Plan.

      5.    Plan not Funded

            Benefits payable under this Plan shall not be funded and shall be
            made out of the general funds of the participating employers.

      6.    Construction

            This Plan shall be construed, administered and enforced according to
            the laws of the state of Pennsylvania.
