commitment to the communities in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate.
As part of its program of corporate philanthropy, the Company contributes
through the Program to education, civic, cultural, and health and human service
programs.

FOR CURRENT DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY
     CSX will match Director contributions from a minimum of $25 to an aggregate
maximum of $25,000 annually to civic, cultural, educational, and health and
human services institutions on a two-for-one basis subject to certain
restrictions. The contributions to be matched must be personal gifts from the
Director's own funds, paid in cash or securities. Pledges do not qualify for
matches.
     The Program is available to all active Directors of the Company.
Individuals who have retired from service as Directors of the Company may
participate in this program through the sixth anniversary of their retirement.
Gifts by participants may be made jointly with their spouses.

Mr. Michael J. Ward

Re:   Railroad Retirement Benefits

Upon your appointment to President of CSX Corporation (the "Company"), you were
transferred to the CSX Corporation payroll. Because of this transfer your wages
are subject to withholding taxes under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act
("Social Security") and not the Railroad Retirement Tax Act. In general, an
employee's government-sponsored retirement benefits under Railroad Retirement
exceed those benefits under Social Security because of the additional taxes paid
by both the employer and the employee under Tier II of Railroad Retirement.

While the CSX Corporation Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan") provides for a
benefit to plan participants who are affected by this situation as a result of a
transfer out of a position that is covered by Railroad Retirement into a
position covered by Social Security (the "Transfer Benefit"), that Transfer
Benefit does not provide for a dollar-for-dollar exact replacement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company recognizes that you were requested to
transfer your employment and that, absent this request, you would have continued
to participate in Railroad Retirement and would have been entitled to additional
retirement benefits under Railroad Retirement, which are not entirely replaced
by the Transfer Benefit. Additionally, the Company recognizes that since you
also continued to maintain a position at CSX Transportation, Inc. ("CSXT"), it
is unlikely that the Railroad Retirement Board would find that your employment
with CSXT was involuntarily terminated or that you had a "current connection"
with CSXT for purposes of Railroad Retirement benefits.

Accordingly, by this letter the Company agrees that upon your retirement, the
benefits department of CSX will perform a calculation of what your benefits
would have been under Railroad Retirement, including spousal benefits, if
applicable, as well as a pension calculation pursuant to the terms of the
Pension Plan. In the event that the monthly Transfer Benefit is not equal to the
amount that the monthly Railroad Retirement benefit would have been absent the
transfer of your employment, you or your spouse will receive the balance each
month of such amount from the Company's general corporate assets as a make-whole
payment. Such amount will be offset by the present value of the Tier II Railroad
Retirement Tax you will have saved on account of the transfer, computed in
accordance with the appropriate actuarial factors in the Pension Plan at the
time of your retirement. This payment will be subject to any applicable tax and
withholding requirements.

Please indicate your acceptance of this arrangement by signing and returning one
copy of this letter.

                                                     Very truly yours,

                                                     Andrew B. Fogarty
                                                     Executive Vice President,
                                                     Corporate Services

Agreed:        /s/ MICHAEL J. WARD
