All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by reference and shall be deemed a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Item 4. Description of Securities. Not applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Not applicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. (a) The Delaware General Corporation Law ("GCL") (Section 145) gives Delaware corporations broad powers to indemnify their present and former directors and officers and those of affiliated corporations against expenses incurred in the defense of any lawsuit to which they are made parties by reason of being or having been such directors or officers, subject to specified conditions and exclusions, gives a director or officer who successfully defends an action the right to be so indemnified, and authorizes the Registrant to buy directors' and officers' 5 liability insurance. Such indemnification is not exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any by-laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or otherwise. (b) Article Eleventh of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant permits, and Article VI of the By-Laws of the Registrant provides for, indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. (c) In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware GCL, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the Delaware GCL as the same exists or may be amended. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed. Not applicable. Item 8. Exhibits. See Index to Exhibits which is incorporated herein by reference. Item 9. Undertakings. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: 1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) 6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. 2. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 7 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Lombard, Illinois, on June 13, 1997.

all Participants. A Participant's share of the reduced contribution will bear
the same ratio as the matching contribution the Participant would have
received if Net Profits were sufficient bears to the total matching
contribution all Participants would have received if Net Profits were
sufficient. If more than one member of a related group (as defined in
Section 1.3 execute this Adoption Agreement, each participating member will
determine Net Profits separately but will not apply this reduction unless,
after combining the separately determined Net Profits, the aggregate Net
Profits are insufficient to satisfy the matching contribution liability.
"Net Profits" includes both current and accumulated Net Profits.

               for the Plan Year.

         [ ]   (3)      (Specify)___________________________________.


Part II.  Method of Allocation - Nonelective Contribution. Subject to any
restoration allocation required under Section 5.04, the Advisory Committee
will allocate and credit each annual nonelective contribution (and
Participant forfeitures treated as nonelective contributions) to the
Employer Contributions Account of each Participant who satisfies the
conditions of Section 3.06, in accordance with the allocation method
selected under this Section 3.04. If the Employer elects Option (e)(2),
Option (g)(2) or Option (h), for the first 3% of Compensation allocated to
all Participants, "Compensation" does not include any exclusions elected
under Adoption Agreement Section 1. 12 (other than the exclusion of
elective contributions), and the Advisory Committee must take into account
the Participant's Compensation for the entire Plan Year. (Choose an
allocation method under (e), (f, (g) or (h); (i) is mandatory if the
Employer elects (f, (g) or (h); (j) is optional in addition to any other
election.)

[X]      (e) Nonintegrated Allocation Formula. (Choose (1) or (2))

         [X]  (1)   The Advisory Committee will allocate the annual nonelective
              contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's
              Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of
              all Participants for the Plan Year.

         [ ]  (2)   The Advisory Committee will allocate the annual
              nonelective contributions in the same ratio that each
              Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the
              total Compensation of all Participants for the Plan Year.  For
              purposes of this Option (2), "Participant" means, in addition
              to a Participant who satisfies the requirements of Section
              3.06 for the Plan Year, any other Participant entitled to a
              top heavy minimum allocation under Section 3.04(B), but such
              Participant's allocation will not exceed 3% of his
              Compensation for the Plan Year.



                                                                 28

[ ]      (f) Two-Tiered Integrated Allocation Formula - Maximum
         Disparity.  First, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
         annual Employer nonelective contributions in the same ratio
         that each Participant's Compensation plus Excess Compensation
         for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation plus Excess
         Compensation of all Participants for the Plan Year.  The
         allocation under this paragraph, as a percentage of each
         Participant's Compensation plus Excess Compensation, must not
         exceed the applicable percentage (5.7%, 5.4% or 4.3%) listed
         under the Maximum Disparity Table following Option (i).


         The Advisory Committee then will allocate any remaining nonelective
         contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation
         for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all
         Participants for the Plan Year.

[ ]      (g) Three-Tiered Integrated Allocation Formula. First, the Advisory
         Committee will allocate the annual Employer nonelective contributions
         in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for the Plan
         Year bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the Plan
         Year. The allocation under this paragraph, as a percentage of each
         Participant's Compensation may not exceed the applicable percentage
         (5.7%, 5.4% or 4.3%) listed under the Maximum Disparity Table
         following Option (i). Solely for purposes of the allocation in this
         first paragraph, "Participant" means, in addition to a Participant
         who satisfies the requirements of Section 3.06 for the Plan Year:
         (Choose (1) or (2))

         [ ]      (1)   No other Participant.

         [ ]      (2)   Any other Participant entitled to a top heavy minimum
                  allocation under Section 3.04(B), but such Participant's
                  allocation under this Option (g) will not exceed 3% of his
                  Compensation for the Plan Year.

As a second tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
nonelective contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Excess
Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Excess Compensation of
all Participants for the Plan Year. The allocation under this paragraph, as
a percentage of each Participant's Excess Compensation, may not exceed the
allocation percentage in the first paragraph.

Finally, the Advisory Committee will allocate any remaining nonelective
contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for
the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the
Plan Year.



                                                                 29

[ ]    (h) Four-Tiered Integrated Allocation Formula. First, the Advisory
       Committee will allocate the annual Employer nonelective contributions in
       the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year
       bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the Plan Year,
       but not exceeding 3% of each Participant's Compensation. Solely for
       purposes of this first tier allocation, a "Participant" means, in
       addition to any Participant who satisfies the requirements of Section
       3.06 for the Plan Year, any other Participant entitled to a top heavy
       minimum allocation under Section 3.04(B) of the Plan.

       As a second tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
       nonelective contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's
       Excess Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the total Excess
       Compensation of all Participants for the Plan Year, but not exceeding
       3% of each Participant's Excess Compensation.

       As a third tier allocation, the Advisory Committee will allocate the
       annual Employer contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's
       Compensation plus Excess Compensation for the Plan Year bears to the
       total Compensation plus Excess Compensation of all Participants for
       the Plan Year. The allocation under this paragraph, as a percentage
       of each Participant's Compensation plus Excess Compensation, must not
       exceed the applicable percentage (2.7%, 2.4% or 1.3%) listed under the
       Maximum Disparity Table following Option (i).

       The Advisory Committee then will allocate any remaining nonelective
       contributions in the same ratio that each Participant's Compensation
       for the Plan Year bears to the total Compensation of all Participants
       for the Plan Year.

[ ]    (i) Excess Compensation.  For purposes of Option (f), (g) or (h),
       "Excess Compensation" means Compensation in excess of the following
       Integration Level: (Choose (1) or (2))

       [ ]  (1) ___% (not exceeding 100%) of the taxable wage base, as
            determined under Section 230 of the Social Security Act, in effect
            on the first day of the Plan Year: (Choose any combination of (i)
            and (ii) or choose (iii))

            [ ]  (i)   Rounded to _________________________________ (but not
                 exceeding the taxable wage base).

            [ ]  (ii)  But not greater than $___.

            [ ]  (iii) Without any further adjustment or limitation.

       [ ]  (2)  $________ [Note: Not exceeding the taxable wage base
            for the Plan Year in which this Adoption Agreement first is
            effective.]



                                                                 30

Maximum Disparity Table.  For purposes of Options (f), (g) and (h),
the applicable percentage is:
 
                                   Applicable Percentages      Applicable
    Integration Level (as             for Option (f) or        Percentages
percentage of taxable wage base)         Option (g)           for Option (h)
- --------------------------------    ---------------------    ----------------

100%                                              5.7%               2.7%

More than 80% but less than 100%                  5.4%               2.4%

More than 20% (but not less than
$10,001) and not more than 80%                    4.3%               1.3%

20% (or $10,000, if greater) or less              5.7%               2.7%


[ ]     Allocation offset. The Advisory Committee will reduce a Participant's
        allocation otherwise made under Part II of this Section 3.04 by the
        Participant's allocation under the following qualified plan(s)
        maintained by the Employer: _____________________________________
        _________________________________.

        The Advisory Committee will determine this allocation reduction:
        (Choose (1) or (2))

        [ ]   (1)   By treating the term "nonelective contribution" as
              including all amounts paid or accrued by the Employer during
              the Plan Year to the qualified plan(s) referenced under this
              Option (j).  If a Participant under this Plan also participates
              in that other plan, the Advisory Committee will treat the
              amount the Employer contributes for or during a Plan Year on
              behalf of a particular Participant under such other plan as an
              amount allocated under this Plan to that Participant's Account
              for that Plan Year.  The Advisory Committee will make the
              computation of allocation required under the immediately
              preceding sentence before making any allocation of nonelective
              contributions under this Section 3.04.

        [ ]   (2) In accordance with the formula provided in an addendum to
              this Adoption Agreement, numbered 3.04(j).

Top Heavy Minimum Allocation - Method of Compliance.  If a Participant's
allocation under this Section 3.04 is less than the top heavy minimum
allocation to which he is entitled under Section 3.04(B): (Choose (k)
or (l))

[X]     (k) The Employer will make any necessary additional
         contribution to the Participant's Account, as described in
         Section 3.04(B)(7)(a) of the Plan.



                                                                 31

[ ]      (l) The Employer will satisfy the top heavy minimum allocation
         under the following plan(s) it maintains: _________________________
         ____________________________________________________________________.
         However, the Employer will make any necessary additional contribution
         to satisfy the top heavy minimum allocation for an Employee covered
         only under this Plan and not under the other plan(s) designated in
         this Option (l). See Section 3.04(B)(7)(b) of the Plan.

If the Employer maintains another plan, the Employer may provide in an
addendum to this Adoption Agreement, numbered Section 3.04, any
modifications to the Plan necessary to satisfy the top heavy require-
ments under Code Section 416.

Related employers. If two or more related employers (as defined in Section
1.30) contribute to this Plan, the Advisory Committee must allocate all
Employer nonelective contributions (and forfeitures treated as nonelective
contributions) to each Participant in the Plan, in accordance with the
elections in this Adoption Agreement Section 3.04: (Choose (m) or (n))

[X]      (m) Without regard to which contributing related group member
         employs the Participant.

[ ]      (n) Only to the Participants directly employed by the contributing
         Employer. If a Participant receives Compensation from more than
         one contributing Employer, the Advisory Committee will determine
         the allocations under this Adoption Agreement Section 3.04 by
         prorating among the participating Employers the Participant's
         Compensation and, if applicable, the Participant's Integration
         Level under Option (i).

         3.05   FORFEITURE ALLOCATION.  Subject to any restoration

                                                                 53


                                  LOAN POLICY

EXHIBIT A

     The Advisory Committee of the HUB CITY NORTH CENTRAL, L.P. 401(K)
PROFIT SHARING PLAN adopts the following loan policy pursuant to the terms
of the Plan.

     1. LOAN APPLICATION. Any Plan participant may apply for a loan from
the Plan. For purposes of this loan policy, the term "participant" means
any participant or beneficiary who is party in interest (as determined
under ERISA Section 3(14)) with respect to the Plan. A participant must apply
for each loan in writing with an application which specifies the amount of
the loan desired, the requested duration for the loan and the source of
security for the loan. The Advisory Committee will not approve any loan if
a participant is not creditworthy.

     In order to be creditworthy, the participant must have established in
his or her community, a reputation which would entitle him or her to a
similar loan from a commercial or business lender. In applying for the loan
from the Plan, each participant must give full authority to investigate his
of her creditworthiness.

     2. LIMITATION ON LOAN AMOUNT/PURPOSE OF LOAN. The Advisory Committee
will not approve any loan to a participant in an amount which exceeds 50%
of his or her nonforfeitable accrued benefit (account balance), as
reflected by the books and records of the Plan. The maximum aggregate
dollar amount of loans outstanding to any participant may not exceed
$50,000 as aggregated with all participant loans from other employer
qualified plans, reduced by the excess of the participant's highest
outstanding participant loan balance during the 12-month period ending on
the date of the loan over the participant's current outstanding participant
loan balance on the date of the loan. A participant may not request a loan
for less than $1000.00.

     3. EVIDENCE AND TERMS OF LOAN. The Advisory Committee will document
every loan in the form of a promissory note signed by the participant for
the face amount of the loan, together with a commercially reasonable rate
of interest. The Advisory Committee will determine the appropriate interest
rate by obtaining at least one quote from a financial institution, as
chosen by the Advisory Committee, that is in the business of lending money.
The interest rate quote(s) must take into account the term of the loan, the
security on that loan, the creditworthiness of the participant, whether the
interest rate is adjustable during the term of the loan, and the intended
use of the loan proceeds, if known, and must reflect a commercially
reasonable rate for the geographical region in which the participant lives.
If participants in the Plan live in different geographical regions, the
Advisory Committee may establish a uniform commercially reasonable interest
rate applicable to all regions based on information obtained from at least
one region in which participants live. The Advisory Committee must
reevaluate interest rates for loans made more than one month since the last
loan made by the Plan.

     A loan may provide a fixed rate of interest of one and one half
percent above the current Prime Rate.  The Advisory Committee will determine

                                                                 54

whether the interest rate is commercially reasonable at the time it
approves the loan and, in the case of an adjustable rate loan, at the time
of each scheduled adjustment. The loan must provide at least quarterly
payments under a level amortization schedule. All loan payments must be
under payroll deduction.

     The loan may permit a suspension of payments for a period not
exceeding one year which occurs during an approved leave of absence. The
Advisory Committee will fix the term for repayments of any loan, however,
in no instance may the term of repayment be greater than five years, unless
the loan qualifies as a home loan. `The Advisory Committee may fix the term
for repayment of a home loan for a period not to exceed 15 years. A "home
loan" is a loan used to acquire a dwelling unit which, within a reasonable
time, the participant will use as a principal residence.

     Participants should note the law treats the amount of any loan (other
than a "home loan") not repaid five years after the date of the loan as a
taxable distribution on the last day of the five year period or, if sooner,
at the time the loan is in default. If a participant extends a non-home
loan having a five year or less repayment term beyond five years, the
balance of the loan at the time of the extension is a taxable distribution
to the participant.

     4. SECURITY FOR LOAN. A participant must secure each loan with an
irrevocable pledge and assignment of 50% of the nonforfeitable amount of
the borrowing participant's accrued benefit under the Plan or other
security (e.g., principal residence) the Advisory Committee accepts and
finds to be adequate, or both 50% of the participant's accrued benefit and
other security. The Advisory Committee may request the borrowing
participant to secure each loan with additional collateral acceptable to
the Advisory Committee or to substitute collateral given for the loan.

     5. FORM OF PLEDGE. If the participant secures the loan wholly or
partly with 50% of his vested accrued benefit, the pledge and assignment of
that portion of his accrued benefit will be in the form attached to this
Loan Policy.

     6. DEFAULT/RISK OF LOSS. The Advisory Committee will treat this loan
in default if:

        (a)   any scheduled payment remains unpaid more than 90 days;

        (b)   the making or furnishing of any representation or statement to
              the Plan by or on behalf of the participant which proves to have
              been false in any material respect when made or furnished;

        (c)   loss, theft, damage, destruction, sale or encumbrance to or of
              any of the collateral, or the making of any levy seizure or
              attachment thereof or thereon;

        (d)   death, dissolution, insolvency, business failure, appointment
              of receiver of any part of the property of, assignment for the
              benefit of creditors by, or the commencement of any proceeding
              under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws of, by or against the
              participant.


                                                                 55

     The participant will have the opportunity to repay the loan, resume
current status of the loan by paying any missed payment plus interest or,
if distribution is available under the plan, request distribution of the
note. If the loan remains in default, the Advisory Committee has the option
of foreclosing on any other security it holds or, to the extent a
distribution to the participant is permissible under the Plan, offset the
participant's vested account balance by the outstanding balance of the
loan. The Advisory Committee will treat the note as repaid to the extent of
any permissible offset. Pending final disposition of the note, the
participant remains obligated for any unpaid principal and accrued
interest.

     The Plan intends this loan program not to place other participants at
risk with respect to their interests in the Plan. In this regard, the
Advisory Committee will administer any participant loan as a participant
directed investment of that portion of the participant's vested account
balance equal to the outstanding principal balance of the loan. The Plan
will credit that portion of the participant's interest with the interest
earned on the note and with principal payments received by the participant.
The Plan also will charge that portion of the participant's account balance
with expenses directly related to the organization, maintenance and
collection of the note.

                                PREAMBLE


The Hub Group Employee Profit Sharing Trust and Plan, originally effective
as of January 1, 1986, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety.  The
Plan, as amended and restated hereby, is intended to qualify as a
profit-sharing plan under Section 401(a) of the Code, and includes a cash
or deferred arrangement that is intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of
the Code.  The Plan is maintained for the exclusive benefit of eligible
employees and their beneficiaries.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, a
Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account under the Plan on and
after the effective date of this amendment and restatement shall be not
less than his vested interest in his account on the day immediately
preceding the effective date.  In addition, notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan to the contrary, the forms of payment and other Plan
provisions that were available under the Plan immediately prior to the
later of the effective date of this amendment and restatement or the date
this amendment and restatement is adopted and that may not be eliminated
under Section 411(d)(6) of the Code shall continue to be available to
Participants who had an account under the Plan on the day immediately
preceding the later of the effective date or the date this amendment and
restatement is adopted.

                                 DEFINITIONS


1.1 - Plan Definitions

As used herein, the following words and phrases have the meanings
hereinafter set forth, unless a different meaning is plainly required by
the context:


The "Administrator" means the Sponsor unless the Sponsor designates another
person or persons to act as such.

An "After-Tax Contribution" means any after-tax employee contribution made
by a Participant as may be permitted under Article V.

The "Beneficiary" of a Participant means the person or persons entitled
under the provisions of the Plan to receive distribution hereunder in the
event the Participant dies before receiving distribution of his entire
interest under the Plan.

The "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to
time.  Reference to a section of the Code includes such section and any
comparable section or sections of any future legislation that amends,
supplements, or supersedes such section.

The "Compensation" of a Participant for any period means the wages as
defined in Section 3401(a) of the Code, determined without regard to any
rules that limit compensation included in wages based on the nature or

                                                                 65

location of the employment or services performed, and all other payments
made to him for such period for services as an Employee for which his
Employer is required to furnish the Participant a written statement under
Sections 6041(d), 6051(a)(3), and 6052 of the Code, and excluding
reimbursements or other expense allowances, fringe benefits, moving
expenses, deferred compensation, and welfare benefits, but determined prior
to any exclusions for amounts deferred under Section 125, 402(e)(3),
402(h)(1)(B), 403(b), or 457(b) of the Code or for certain contributions
described in Section 414(h)(2) of the Code that are picked up by the
employing unit and treated as employer contributions.

In no event, however, shall the Compensation of a Participant taken into
account under the Plan for any Plan Year exceed (1) $200,000 for Plan Years
beginning prior to January 1, 1994, or (2) $150,000 for Plan Years
beginning on or after January 1, 1994 (subject to adjustment annually as
provided in Section 401(a)(17)(B) and Section 415(d) of the Code; provided,
however, that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar
year, if any, is effective for Plan Years beginning in such calendar year).
If the Compensation of a Participant is determined over a period of time
that contains fewer than 12 calendar months, then the annual compensation
limitation described above shall be adjusted with respect to that
Participant by multiplying the annual compensation limitation in effect for
the Plan Year by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of full
months in the period and the denominator of which is 12; provided, however,
that no proration is required for a Participant who is covered under the
Plan for less than one full Plan Year if the formula for allocations is
based on Compensation for a period of at least 12 months.  In determining
the Compensation, for purposes of applying the annual compensation
limitation described above, of a Participant who is a five percent owner or
among the ten Highly Compensated Employees receiving the greatest
Compensation for the Plan Year, the Compensation of the Participant's
spouse and of his lineal descendants who have not attained age 19 as of the
close of the Plan Year shall be included as Compensation of the Participant
for the Plan Year.  If as a result of applying the family aggregation rule
described in the preceding sentence the annual compensation limitation
would be exceeded, the limitation shall be prorated among the affected
family members in proportion to each member's Compensation as determined
prior to application of the family aggregation rules.

A "Contribution Period" means the period specified in Article VI for which
Employer Contributions shall be made.

An "Eligible Employee" means any Employee who has met the eligibility
requirements of Article III to have Tax-Deferred Contributions made to the

under Article III or Article VI.

An "Employee" means any employee of an Employer other than an employee who

provide for coverage under the Plan.

amended from time to time.  Reference to a section of ERISA includes such

that amends, supplements, or supersedes such section.

The "General Fund" means a Trust Fund maintained by the Trustee as required
to hold and administer any assets of the Trust that are not allocated among
any separate Investment Funds as may be provided in the Plan or the Trust
Agreement.  No General Fund shall be maintained if all assets of the Trust
are allocated among separate Investment Funds.

A "Highly Compensated Employee" means an Employee or former Employee who is
a highly compensated active employee or highly compensated former employee
as defined hereunder.

A "highly compensated active employee" includes any Employee who performs
services for an Employer during the determination year and who (i) was a
five percent owner at any time during the determination year or the look
back year, (ii) received compensation from an Employer during the look back
year in excess of $75,000 (subject to adjustment annually at the same time
and in the same manner as under Section 415(d) of the Code), (iii) was in
the top paid group of employees for the look back year and received
compensation from an Employer during the look back year in excess of
$50,000 (subject to adjustment annually at the same time and in the same
manner as under Section 415(d) of the Code), (iv) was an officer of an
Employer during the look back year and received compensation during that
year in excess of 50 percent of the dollar limitation in effect for that
year under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code or, if no officer received
compensation in excess of that amount for the look back year or the
determination year, received the greatest compensation for the look back
year of any officer, or (v) was one of the 100 employees paid the greatest
compensation by an Employer for the determination year and would be
described in (ii), (iii), or (iv) above if the term "determination year"
were substituted for "look back year".

A "highly compensated former employee" includes any Employee who separated
from service from an Employer and all Related Companies (or is deemed to

                                                                 67

have separated from service from an Employer and all Related Companies)
prior to the determination year, performed no services for an Employer
during the determination year, and was a highly compensated active employee
for either the separation year or any determination year ending on or after
the date the Employee attains age 55.

The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee hereunder,
including determinations as to the number and identity of employees in the
top paid group, the 100 employees receiving the greatest compensation from
an Employer, the number of employees treated as officers, and the
compensation considered, shall be made in accordance with the provisions of
Section 414(q) of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.  For purposes
of this definition, the following terms have the following meanings:

(a)  The "determination year" means the Plan Year or, if the Administrator
     makes the election provided in paragraph (b) below, the period of time, if
     any, which extends beyond the look back year and ends on the last day of
     the Plan Year for which testing is being performed (the "lag period").  If
     the lag period is less than 12 months long, the dollar amounts specified
     in (ii), (iii), and (iv) above shall be prorated based upon the number of

shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular.


                                ARTICLE II
                                 SERVICE


2.1 - Definitions

For purposes of this Article, the following terms have the following
meanings.

(a)  A "break in service" means any computation period during which a person
     completes less than 501 Hours of Service except that no person shall incur
     a break in service solely by reason of temporary absence from work not
     exceeding 12 months resulting from illness, layoff, or other cause if
     authorized in advance by an Employer or a Related Company pursuant to its
     uniform leave policy, if his employment shall not otherwise be terminated
     during the period of such absence.

(b)  A "computation period" for purposes of determining an employee's years
     of Eligibility Service means (i) the 12-consecutive-month period beginning
     on the first date he completes an Hour of Service, and (ii) each
     12-consecutive-month period beginning on an anniversary of such date.
 
(c)  A "maternity/paternity absence" means a person's absence from employment
     with an Employer or a Related Company because of the person's pregnancy,
     the birth of the person's child, the placement of a child with the person
     in connection with the person's adoption of the child, or the caring for
     the person's child immediately following the child's birth or adoption.  A
     person's absence from employment will not be considered a
     maternity/paternity absence unless the person furnishes the Administrator
     such timely information as may reasonably be required to establish that
     the absence was for one of the purposes enumerated in this paragraph and
     to establish the number of days of absence attributable to such purpose.

2.2 - Crediting of Hours of Service

A person shall be credited with an Hour of Service for:

                                                                 70

(a)  each hour for which he is paid, or entitled to payment, for the
     performance of duties for an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a
     Related Company during the applicable computation period; provided,
     however, that hours compensated at a premium rate shall be treated as
     straight-time hours;

(b)  subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, each hour for which he is
     paid, or entitled to payment, by an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a
     Related Company on account of a period of time during which no duties are
     performed (irrespective of whether the employment relationship has
     terminated) due to vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity (including
     disability), lay-off, jury duty, military duty, or leave of absence;

(c)  each hour for which he would have been scheduled to work for an
     Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company during the period
     that he is absent from work because of service with the armed forces of
     the United States provided he is eligible for reemployment rights under
     the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 and
     returns to work with an Employer or a Related Company within the period
     during which he retains such reemployment rights; and

(d)  each hour for which back pay, irrespective of mitigation of damages, is
     either awarded or agreed to by an Employer, a Predecessor Employer, or a
     Related Company; provided, however, that the same Hour of Service shall
     not be credited both under paragraph (a) or (b) or (c) of this Section,
     as the case may be, and under this paragraph (d); and provided, further,
     that the crediting of Hours of Service for back pay awarded or agreed to
     with respect to periods described in such paragraph (b) shall be subject
     to the limitations set forth therein and in Section 2.4.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and solely for purposes of determining
whether a person who is on a maternity/paternity absence beginning on or
after the first day of the first Plan Year that commences on or after
January 1, 1985, has incurred a break in service, Hours of Service shall
include those hours with which such person would otherwise have been
credited but for such maternity/paternity absence, or shall include eight
Hours of Service for each day of maternity/paternity absence if the actual
hours to be credited cannot be determined; except that not more than 501
hours are to be credited by reason of any maternity/paternity absence.  Any
hours included as Hours of Service pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence shall be credited to the computation period in which the absence
from employment begins, if such person otherwise would incur a break in
service in such computation period, or, in any other case, to the
immediately following computation period.

2.3 - Hours of Service Equivalencies

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, an
Employer may elect to credit Hours of Service to its employees in
accordance with one of the following equivalencies, and if an Employer does
not maintain records that accurately reflect actual hours of service such
Employer shall credit Hours of Service to its employees in accordance with
one of the following equivalencies:

(a)  If the Employer maintains its records on the basis of days worked, an
     employee shall be credited with 10 Hours of Service for each day on which

                                                                 71

     he performs an Hour of Service.

(b)  If the Employer maintains its records on the basis of weeks worked, an
     employee shall be credited with 45 Hours of Service for each week in which
     he performs an Hour of Service.

(c)  If the Employer maintains its records on the basis of semi-monthly
     payroll periods, an employee shall be credited with 95 Hours of Service
     for each semi-monthly payroll period in which he performs an Hour of
     Service.

(d)  If the Employer maintains its records on the basis of months worked, an
     employee shall be credited with 190 Hours of Service for each month in
     which he performs an Hour of Service.

2.4 - Limitations on Crediting of Hours of Service

In the application of the provisions of paragraph (b) of Section 2.2, the
following shall apply:

(a)  An hour for which a person is directly or indirectly paid, or entitled
     to payment, on account of a period during which no duties are performed
     shall not be credited to him if such payment is made or due under a plan
     maintained solely for the purpose of complying with applicable workers'
     compensation, unemployment compensation, or disability insurance laws.

(b)  Hours of Service shall not be credited with respect to a payment which
     solely reimburses a person for medical or medically-related expenses
     incurred by him.

(c)  A payment shall be deemed to be made by or due from an Employer, a
     Predecessor Employer, or a Related Company (i) regardless of whether such
     payment is made by or due from such employer directly or indirectly,
     through (among others) a trust fund or insurer to which any such employer
     contributes or pays premiums, and (ii) regardless of whether contributions
     made or due to such trust fund, insurer, or other entity are for the
     benefit of particular persons or are on behalf of a group of persons in
     the aggregate.

(d)  No more than 501 Hours of Service shall be credited to a person on
     account of any single continuous period during which he performs no duties
     (whether or not such period occurs in a single computation period), unless
     no duties are performed due to service with the armed forces of the United
     States for which the person retains reemployment rights as provided in
     paragraph (c) of Section 2.2.

computation period in which he completes at least 1,000 Hours of Service.

2.7 - Years of Vesting Service

There shall be no years of Vesting Service credited under the Plan.

2.8 - Crediting of Service on Transfer or Amendment

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if an
Employee is transferred from employment covered under a qualified plan

credited based on elapsed time in accordance with Treasury Regulations
1.410(a)-7 to employment covered under the Plan or, prior to amendment, the
Plan provided for crediting of service on the basis of elapsed time, an
affected Employee shall be credited with Eligibility Service hereunder
equal to:

     the elapsed time method before the transfer date or the effective date of
     the amendment, plus

(b)  his service under the Hours of Service method provided hereunder for the

Contributions Sub-Account, any Participant with three or more years of

amendment.  A Participant shall exercise his right under this Section by
giving written notice of his exercise thereof to the Administrator within
60 days after the latest of (i) the date he receives notice of the
amendment from the Administrator, (ii) the effective date of the amendment,
or (iii) the date the amendment is adopted.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,

                                                                 78

     Eligible Employees other than Highly Compensated Employees and (ii) the
     lesser of 200 percent or two plus the lesser of such average contribution
     percentage or average actual deferral percentage, or, if it would result
     in a larger aggregate limit, the sum of (iii) 125 percent of the lesser of
     the average contribution percentage for eligible participants other than
     Highly Compensated Employees or the average actual deferral percentage for
     Eligible Employees other than Highly Compensated Employees and (iv) the
     lesser of 200 percent or two plus the greater of such average contribution
     percentage or average actual deferral percentage.

(c)  The "annual addition" with respect to a Participant for a limitation
     year means the sum of the Tax-Deferred Contributions and Employer
     Contributions allocated to his Separate Account for the limitation year
     (including any excess contributions that are distributed pursuant to this
     Article), the employer contributions, employee contributions, and
     forfeitures allocated to his accounts for the limitation year under any
     other qualified defined contribution plan (whether or not terminated)
     maintained by an Employer or a Related Company concurrently with the Plan,
     and amounts described in Sections 415(l)(2) and 419A(d)(2) of the Code
     allocated to his account for the limitation year; provided, however, that
     the annual addition for limitation years beginning prior to January 1,
     1987 shall not be recalculated to treat all employee contributions as
     annual additions.

(d)  The "Code Section 402(g) limit" means the dollar limit imposed by
     Section 402(g)(1) of the Code or established by the Secretary of the
     Treasury pursuant to Section 402(g)(5) of the Code in effect on January 1
     of the calendar year in which an Eligible Employee's taxable year begins.

(e)  The "contribution percentage" with respect to an eligible participant
     for a particular Plan Year means the ratio of the matching contributions
     made to the Plan on his behalf for the Plan Year to his test compensation
     for such Plan Year, except that, to the extent permitted by regulations
     issued under Section 401(m) of the Code, the Sponsor may elect to take
     in to account in computing the numerator of each eligible participant's
     contribution percentage the Tax-Deferred Contributions made to the Plan on
     his behalf for the Plan Year; provided, however, that any Tax-Deferred
     Contributions that were taken into account in computing the numerator of
     an eligible participant's actual deferral percentage may not be taken into
     account in computing the numerator of his contribution percentage; and
     provided, further, that contributions made by or on a Participant's behalf
     for a Plan Year shall be included in determining his contribution
     percentage for such Plan Year only if the contributions are made to the
     Plan prior to the end of the 12-month period immediately following the
     Plan Year to which the contributions relate.  The determination and
     treatment of the contribution percentage amounts for any Participant shall
     satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by the Secretary of
     the Treasury.

(f)  An "elective contribution" means any employer contribution made to a
     plan maintained by an Employer or any Related Company on behalf of a
     Participant in lieu of cash compensation pursuant to his written election
     to defer under any qualified CODA as described in Section 401(k) of the
     Code, any simplified employee pension cash or deferred arrangement as
     described in Section 402(h)(1)(B) of the Code, any eligible deferred
     compensation plan under Section 457 of the Code, or any plan as described

                                                                 79

     in Section 501(c)(18) of the Code, and any contribution made on behalf of
     the Participant by an Employer or a Related Company for the purchase of an
     annuity contract under Section 403(b) of the Code pursuant to a salary
     reduction agreement.

(g)  An "eligible participant" means any Employee who is eligible to have
     Tax-Deferred Contributions made on his behalf (if Tax-Deferred
     Contributions are taken into account in computing contribution
     percentages) or to participate in the allocation of matching
     contributions.

(h)  An "excess deferral" with respect to a Participant means that portion of
     a Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions that when added to amounts
     deferred under other plans or arrangements described in Sections 401(k),
     408(k), or 403(b) of the Code, would exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit
     and is includable in the Participant's gross income under Section 402(g)
     of the Code.

(i)  A "family member" of an Employee means the Employee's spouse, his lineal
     ascendants, his lineal descendants, and the spouses of such lineal
     ascendants and descendants.

(j)  A "limitation year" means the calendar year.

(k)  A "matching contribution" means any employer contribution allocated to
     an Eligible Employee's account under the Plan or any other plan of an
     Employer or a Related Company solely on account of elective contributions
     made on his behalf or employee contributions made by him.

(l)  The "test compensation" of an Eligible Employee for a Plan Year means
     compensation as defined in Section 414(s) of the Code and regulations
     issued thereunder, limited, however, to (1) $200,000 for Plan Years
     beginning prior to January 1, 1994, or (2) $150,000 for Plan Years
     beginning on or after January 1, 1994 (subject to adjustment annually as
     provided in Section 401(a)(17)(B) and Section 415(d) of the Code;
     provided, however, that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any
     calendar year, if any, is effective for Plan Years beginning in such
     calendar year).  If the test compensation of a Participant is determined
     over a period of time that contains fewer than 12 calendar months, then
     the annual compensation limitation described above shall be adjusted with
     respect to that Participant by multiplying the annual compensation
     limitation in effect for the Plan Year by a fraction the numerator of
     which is the number of full months in the period and the denominator of
     which is 12; provided, however, that no proration is required for a
     Participant who is covered under the Plan for less than one full Plan Year
     if the formula for allocations is based on Compensation for a period of at
     least 12 months.  In determining the test compensation, for purposes of
     applying the annual compensation limitation described above, of a
     Participant who is a five-percent owner or among the ten Highly
     Compensated Employees receiving the greatest test compensation for the
     limitation year, the test compensation of the Participant's spouse and of
     his lineal descendants who have not attained age 19 as of the close of the
     limitation year shall be included as test compensation of the Participant
     for the limitation year.  If as a result of applying the family
     aggregation rule described in the preceding sentence the annual
     compensation limitation would be exceeded, the limitation shall be

                                                                 80

     prorated among the affected family members in proportion to each member's
     test compensation as determined prior to application of the family
     aggregation rules.

7.2 - Code Section 402(g) Limit

In no event shall the amount of the Tax-Deferred Contributions made on
behalf of an Eligible Employee for his taxable year, when aggregated with
any elective contributions made on behalf of the Eligible Employee under
any other plan of an Employer or a Related Company for his taxable year,
exceed the Code Section 402(g) limit.  In the event that the Administrator
determines that the reduction percentage elected by an Eligible Employee
will result in his exceeding the Code Section 402(g) limit, the
Administrator may adjust the reduction authorization of such Eligible
Employee by reducing the percentage of his Tax-Deferred Contributions to
such smaller percentage that will result in the Code Section 402(g) limit
not being exceeded.  If the Administrator determines that the Tax-Deferred
Contributions made on behalf of an Eligible Employee would exceed the Code
Section 402(g) limit for his taxable year, the Tax-Deferred Contributions
for such Participant shall be automatically suspended for the remainder, if
any, of such taxable year.

If an Employer notifies the Administrator that the Code Section 402(g)
limit has nevertheless been exceeded by an Eligible Employee for his
taxable year, the Tax-Deferred Contributions that, when aggregated with
elective contributions made on behalf of the Eligible Employee under any
other plan of an Employer or a Related Company, would exceed the Code
Section 402(g) limit, plus any income and minus any losses attributable
thereto, shall be distributed to the Eligible Employee no later than the
April 15 immediately following such taxable year.  Any Tax-Deferred
Contributions that are distributed to an Eligible Employee in accordance
with this Section shall not be taken into account in computing the Eligible
Employee's actual deferral percentage for the Plan Year in which the
Tax-Deferred Contributions were made, unless the Eligible Employee is a
Highly Compensated Employee.  If an amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions is
distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section, matching
contributions that are attributable solely to the distributed Tax-Deferred
Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto,
shall be forfeited by the Participant.  Any such forfeited amounts shall be
applied against the Employer Contribution obligations for the Plan Year of
the Employer for which the Participant last performed services as an
Employee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, should the amount of all
such forfeitures for any Plan Year with respect to any Employer exceed the
amount of such Employer's Employer Contribution obligation for the Plan
Year, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a
suspense account established with respect to the Employer and shall for all
Plan purposes be applied against the Employer's Employer Contribution
obligations for the following Plan Year.

7.3 - Distribution of Excess Deferrals

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a
Participant notifies the Administrator in writing no later than the March 1
following the close of the Participant's taxable year that excess deferrals
have been made on his behalf under the Plan for such taxable year, the
excess deferrals, plus any income and minus any losses attributable

                                                                 81

thereto, shall be distributed to the Participant no later than the April 15
immediately following such taxable year.  Any Tax-Deferred Contributions
that are distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section shall
nevertheless be taken into account in computing the Participant's actual
deferral percentage for the Plan Year in which the Tax-Deferred
Contributions were made.  If an amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions is
distributed to a Participant in accordance with this Section, matching
contributions that are attributable solely to the distributed Tax-Deferred
Contributions, plus any income and minus any losses attributable thereto,
shall be forfeited by the Participant.  Any such forfeited amounts shall be
applied against the Employer Contribution obligations for the Plan Year of
the Employer for which the Participant last performed services as an
Employee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, should the amount of all
such forfeitures for any Plan Year with respect to any Employer exceed the
amount of such Employer's Employer Contribution obligation for the Plan
Year, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a
suspense account established with respect to the Employer and shall for all
Plan purposes be applied against the Employer's Employer Contribution
obligations for the following Plan Year.

7.4 - Limitation on Tax-Deferred Contributions of Highly Compensated
Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
Tax-Deferred Contributions made with respect to a Plan Year on behalf of
Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees may not result in
an average actual deferral percentage for such Eligible Employees that
exceeds the greater of:

(a)  a percentage that is equal to 125 percent of the average actual deferral
     percentage for all other Eligible Employees; or

(b)  a percentage that is not more than 200 percent of the average actual
     deferral percentage for all other Eligible Employees and that is not more
     than two percentage points higher than the average actual deferral
     percentage for all other Eligible Employees.

In order to assure that the limitation contained herein is not exceeded
with respect to a Plan Year, the Administrator is authorized to suspend
completely further Tax-Deferred Contributions on behalf of Highly
Compensated Employees for any remaining portion of a Plan Year or to adjust
the projected actual deferral percentages of Highly Compensated Employees
by reducing their percentage elections with respect to Tax-Deferred
Contributions for any remaining portion of a Plan Year to such smaller
percentages that will result in the limitation set forth above not being
exceeded.  In the event of any such suspension or reduction, Highly
Compensated Employees affected thereby shall be notified of the reduction
or suspension as soon as possible and shall be given an opportunity to make
a new Tax-Deferred Contribution election to be effective the first day of
the next following Plan Year.  In the absence of such an election, the
election in effect immediately prior to the suspension or adjustment
described above shall be reinstated as of the first day of the next
following Plan Year.

For purposes of applying the limitation contained in this Section, the
Tax-Deferred Contributions and test compensation of any Eligible Employee

                                                                 82

who is a family member of another Eligible Employee who is a five percent
owner or among the ten Highly Compensated Employees receiving the greatest
test compensation for the Plan Year shall be aggregated with the
Tax-Deferred Contributions and test compensation of such other Eligible
Employee, and such family member shall not be considered an Eligible
Employee for purposes of determining the average actual deferral percentage
for all other Eligible Employees.

In determining the actual deferral percentage for any Eligible Employee who
is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, elective contributions
made to his accounts under any other plan of an Employer or a Related
Company shall be treated as if all such contributions were made to the
Plan; provided, however, that if such a plan has a plan year different from
the Plan Year, any such contributions made to the Highly Compensated
Employee's accounts under the plan for the plan year ending with or within
the same calendar year as the Plan Year shall be treated as if such
contributions were made to the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such
contributions shall not be treated as if they were made to the Plan if
regulations issued under Section 401(k) of the Code do not permit such plan
to be aggregated with the Plan.

If one or more plans of an Employer or Related Company are aggregated with
the Plan for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Section 401(a)(4)
or 410(b) of the Code, then actual deferral percentages under the Plan
shall be calculated as if the Plan and such one or more other plans were a
single plan.  For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 1991, plans may
be aggregated to satisfy Section 401(k) of the Code only if they have the
same plan year.

The Administrator shall maintain records sufficient to show that the
limitation contained in this Section was not exceeded with respect to any
Plan Year.

7.5 - Distribution of Excess Tax-Deferred Contributions

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the
event that the limitation contained in Section 7.4 is exceeded in any Plan
Year, the Tax-Deferred Contributions made with respect to a Highly
Compensated Employee that exceed the maximum amount permitted to be
contributed to the Plan on his behalf under Section 7.4, plus any income
and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be distributed to the
Highly Compensated Employee prior to the end of the next succeeding Plan
Year.  If excess amounts are attributable to Participants aggregated under
the family aggregation rules described in Section 7.4, the excess shall be
allocated among family members in proportion to the Tax-Deferred
Contributions made with respect to each family member.  If such excess
amounts are distributed more than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the
Plan Year for which the excess occurred, an excise tax may be imposed under
Section 4979 of the Code on the Employer maintaining the Plan with respect
to such amounts.

The maximum amount permitted to be contributed to the Plan on a Highly
Compensated Employee's behalf under Section 7.4 shall be determined by
reducing Tax-Deferred Contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated
Employees in order of their actual deferral percentages beginning with the
highest of such percentages.  The determination of the amount of excess

                                                                 83

Tax-Deferred Contributions shall be made after application of Section 7.3,
if applicable.

If an amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions is distributed to a Participant
in accordance with this Section, matching contributions that are
attributable solely to the distributed Tax-Deferred Contributions, plus any
income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be forfeited by the
Participant.  Any such forfeited amounts shall be applied against the
Employer Contribution obligations for the Plan Year of the Employer for
which the Participant last performed services as an Employee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, should the amount of all such
forfeitures for any Plan Year with respect to any Employer exceed the
amount of such Employer's Employer Contribution obligation for the Plan
Year, the excess amount of such forfeitures shall be held unallocated in a
suspense account established with respect to the Employer and shall for all
Plan purposes be applied against the Employer's Employer Contribution
obligations for the following Plan Year.

7.6 - Limitation on Matching Contributions of Highly Compensated Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
matching contributions made with respect to a Plan Year on behalf of
eligible participants who are Highly Compensated Employees may not result
in an average contribution percentage for such eligible participants that
exceeds the greater of:

(a)  a percentage that is equal to 125 percent of the average contribution
     percentage for all other eligible participants; or

(b)  a percentage that is not more than 200 percent of the average
     contribution percentage for all other eligible participants and that is
     not more than two percentage points higher than the average contribution
     percentage for all other eligible participants.

For purposes of applying the limitation contained in this Section, the
matching contributions, Tax-Deferred Contributions (to the extent that such
Tax-Deferred Contributions are taken into account in computing contribution
percentages), and test compensation of any eligible participant who is a
family member of another eligible participant who is a five percent owner
or among the ten Highly Compensated Employees receiving the greatest test
compensation for the Plan Year shall be aggregated with the matching
contributions, Tax-Deferred Contributions, and test compensation of such
other eligible participant, and such family member shall not be considered
an eligible participant for purposes of determining the average
contribution percentage for all other eligible participants.

In determining the contribution percentage for any eligible participant who
is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year, matching contributions,
employee contributions, and elective contributions (to the extent that
elective contributions are taken into account in computing contribution
percentages) made to his accounts under any other plan of an Employer or a
Related Company shall be treated as if all such contributions were made to
the Plan; provided, however, that if such a plan has a plan year different
from the Plan Year, any such contributions made to the Highly Compensated
Employee's accounts under the plan for the plan year ending with or within
the same calendar year as the Plan Year shall be treated as if such

                                                                 84

contributions were made to the Plan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such
contributions shall not be treated as if they were made to the Plan if
regulations issued under Section 401(m) of the Code do not permit such plan
to be aggregated with the Plan.

If one or more plans of an Employer or a Related Company are aggregated
with the Plan for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Section
401(a)(4) or 410(b) of the Code, the contribution percentages under the
Plan shall be calculated as if the Plan and such one or more other plans
were a single plan.  For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 1989,
plans may be aggregated to satisfy Section 401(m) of the Code only if they
have the same plan year.

The Administrator shall maintain records sufficient to show that the
limitation contained in this Section was not exceeded with respect to any
Plan Year and the amount of the elective contributions taken into account
in computing contribution percentages for any Plan Year.

7.7 - Distribution of Excess Contributions

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the
event that the limitation contained in Section 7.6 is exceeded in any Plan
Year, the matching contributions made on behalf of a Highly Compensated
Employee that exceed the maximum amount permitted to be contributed to the
Plan on behalf of such Highly Compensated Employee under Section 7.6, plus
any income and minus any losses attributable thereto, shall be distributed
to the Participant prior to the end of the next succeeding Plan Year.  If
excess amounts are attributable to Participants aggregated under the family
aggregation rules described in Section 7.5, the excess shall be allocated
among family members in proportion to the matching contributions made with
respect to each family member.  If such excess amounts are distributed more
than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the Plan Year for which the excess
occurred, an excise tax may be imposed under Section 4979 of the Code on
the Employer maintaining the Plan with respect to such amounts.

The maximum amount permitted to be contributed to the Plan on behalf of a
Highly Compensated Employee under Section 7.6 shall be determined by
reducing matching contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated
Employees in order of their contribution percentages beginning with the
highest of such percentages.

The determination of the amount of excess matching contributions shall be
made after application of Section 7.3, if applicable, and after application
of Section 7.5, if applicable.

7.8 - Multiple Use Limitation

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
following multiple use limitation as required under Section 401(m) of the
Code shall apply:  the sum of the average actual deferral percentage for
Eligible Employees who are Highly Compensated Employees and the average
contribution percentage for eligible participants who are Highly
Compensated Employees may not exceed the aggregate limit.  In the event
that, after satisfaction of Section 7.5 and Section 7.7, it is determined
that contributions under the Plan fail to satisfy the multiple use
limitation contained herein, the multiple use limitation shall be satisfied

                                                                 85

by further reducing the contribution percentages of eligible participants
who are Highly Compensated Employees (beginning with the highest such
percentage) to the extent necessary to eliminate the excess, with such
further reductions to be treated as excess contributions and disposed of as
provided in Section 7.7, or in an alternative manner, consistently applied,
that may be permitted by regulations issued under Section 401(m) of the
Code.

7.9 - Determination of Income or Loss

The income or loss attributable to excess contributions that are
distributed pursuant to this Article shall be determined for the preceding
Plan Year under the method otherwise used for allocating income or loss to
Participant's Separate Accounts.

7.10 - Code Section 415 Limitations on Crediting of Contributions and
Forfeitures

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the annual
addition with respect to a Participant for a limitation year shall in no
event exceed the lesser of (i) $30,000 (adjusted as provided in Section
415(d) of the Code, with the first adjustment being made for limitation
years beginning on or after January 1, 1996) or (ii) 25 percent of the
Participant's compensation, as defined in Section 415(c)(3) of the Code and
regulations issued thereunder, for the limitation year.  If the annual
addition to the Separate Account of a Participant in any limitation year
would otherwise exceed the amount that may be applied for his benefit under
the limitation contained in this Section, the limitation shall be satisfied
by reducing contributions made on behalf of the Participant to the extent
necessary in the following order:

     Tax-Deferred Contributions made on the Participant's behalf for the
     limitation year that have not been matched, if any, shall be reduced.

     Tax-Deferred Contributions made on the Participant's behalf for the
     limitation year that have been matched and the matching contributions
     attributable thereto, if any, shall be reduced pro rata.

     Employer Contributions (other than matching contributions) otherwise
     allocable to the Participant's Separate Account for the limitation year
     shall be reduced.

The amount of any reduction of Tax-Deferred Contributions (plus any income
attributable thereto) shall be returned to the Participant.  The amount of
any reduction of Employer Contributions shall be deemed a forfeiture for
the limitation year.  Amounts deemed to be forfeitures under this Section
shall be held unallocated in a suspense account established for the
limitation year and shall be applied against the Employer's contribution
obligation for the next following limitation year (and succeeding
limitation years, as necessary).  If a suspense account is in existence at
any time during a limitation year, all amounts in the suspense account must
be allocated to Participants' Separate Accounts (subject to the limitations
contained herein) before any further Tax-Deferred Contributions or Employer
Contributions may be made to the Plan on behalf of Participants.  No
suspense account established hereunder shall share in any increase or
decrease in the net worth of the Trust.  For purposes of this Article,

                                                                 86

excesses shall result only from the allocation of forfeitures, a reasonable
error in estimating a Participant's annual compensation (as defined in
Section 415(c)(3) of the Code and regulations issued thereunder), a
reasonable error in determining the amount of Tax-Deferred Contributions
that may be made with respect to any Participant under the limits of
Section 415 of the Code, or other limited facts and circumstances that
justify the availability of the provisions set forth above.

7.11 - Coverage Under Other Qualified Defined Contribution Plan

If a Participant is covered by any other qualified defined contribution
plan (whether or not terminated) maintained by an Employer or a Related
Company concurrently with the Plan, and if the annual addition for the
limitation year would otherwise exceed the amount that may be applied for
the Participant's benefit under the limitation contained in Section 7.10,
such excess shall be reduced first by returning the employee contributions
made by the Participant for the limitation year under all of the defined
contribution plans other than the Plan and the income attributable thereto
to the extent necessary.  If the limitation contained in Section 7.10 is
still not satisfied after returning all of the employee contributions made
by the Participant under all such other plans, the excess shall be reduced
by returning the elective contributions made on the Participant's behalf
for the limitation year under all such other plans and the income
attributable thereto to the extent necessary on a pro rata basis among all
of such plans.  If the limitation contained in Section 7.10 is still not
satisfied after returning all of the elective contributions made on the
Participant's behalf under all such other plans, the procedure set forth in
Section 7.10 shall be invoked to eliminate any such excess.  If the
limitation contained in Section 7.10 is still not satisfied after
invocation of the procedure set forth in Section 7.10, the portion of the
employer contributions and of forfeitures for the limitation year under all
such other plans that has been allocated to the Participant thereunder, but
which exceeds the limitation set forth in Section 7.10, shall be deemed a
forfeiture for the limitation year and shall be disposed of as provided in
such other plans; provided, however, that if the Participant is covered by
a money purchase pension plan, the forfeiture shall be effected first under
any other defined contribution plan that is not a money purchase pension
plan and, if the limitation is still not satisfied, then under such money
purchase pension plan.

7.12 - Coverage Under Qualified Defined Benefit Plan

If a Participant in the Plan is also covered by a qualified defined benefit
plan (whether or not terminated) maintained by an Employer or a Related
Company, in no event shall the sum of the defined benefit plan fraction (as
defined in Section 415(e)(2) of the Code) and the defined contribution plan
fraction (as defined in Section 415(e)(3) of the Code) exceed 1.0 in any
limitation year.  If, before October 3, 1973, the Participant was an active
participant in a qualified defined benefit plan maintained by an Employer
or a Related Company and otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section
2004(d)(2) of ERISA, then for purposes of applying this Section, the
defined benefit plan fraction shall not exceed 1.0.  If the Plan satisfied
the applicable requirements of Section 415 of the Code as in effect for all
limitation years beginning before January 1, 1987, an amount shall be
subtracted from the numerator of the defined contribution plan fraction
(not exceeding such numerator) as prescribed by the Secretary of the

                                                                 87

Treasury so that the sum of the defined benefit plan fraction and the
defined contribution plan fraction computed under Section 415(e)(1) of the
Code, as revised by the Tax Reform Act of 1986, does not exceed 1.0 for
such limitation year.  In the event the special limitation contained in
this Section is exceeded, the benefits otherwise payable to the Participant
under any such qualified defined benefit plan shall be reduced to the
extent necessary to meet such limitation.

7.13 - Scope of Limitations

The limitations contained in Sections 7.10, 7.11, and 7.12 shall be
applicable only with respect to benefits provided pursuant to defined

8.1 - General Fund

The Trustee shall maintain a General Fund as required to hold and
administer any assets of the Trust that are not allocated among the
Investment Funds as provided in the Plan or the Trust Agreement.  The
General Fund shall be held and administered as a separate common trust
fund.  The interest of each Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan in
the General Fund shall be an undivided interest.  The General Fund may be
invested in whole or in part in equity securities issued by an Employer or
a Related Company that are publicly traded and are "qualifying employer
securities" as defined in Section 407(d)(5) of ERISA.

8.2 - Investment Funds

The Sponsor shall determine the number and type of Investment Funds and
select the investments for such Investment Funds.  The Sponsor shall
communicate the same and any changes therein in writing to the
Administrator and the Trustee.  Each Investment Fund shall be held and
administered as a separate common trust fund.  The interest of each
Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan in any Investment Fund shall be
an undivided interest.

The Sponsor may determine to offer one or more Investment Funds that are
invested in whole or in part in equity securities issued by an Employer or
a Related Company that are publicly traded and are "qualifying employer
securities" as defined in Section 407(d)(5) of ERISA.

8.3 - Loan Investment Fund

If a loan from the Plan to a Participant is approved in accordance with the
provisions of Article XII, the Sponsor shall direct the establishment and
maintenance of a loan Investment Fund in the Participant's name.  The
assets of the loan Investment Fund shall be held as a separate trust fund.
A Participant's loan Investment Fund shall be invested in the note
reflecting the loan that is executed by the Participant in accordance with
the provisions of Article XII.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan to the contrary, income received with respect to a Participant's loan

                                                                 88

Investment Fund shall be allocated and the loan Investment Fund shall be
administered as provided in Article XII.

Any dividends, interest, distributions, or other income received by the
Trustee with respect to any Trust Fund maintained hereunder shall be
allocated by the Trustee to the Trust Fund for which the income was
received.

8.5 - Separate Accounts

As of the first date a contribution is made by or on behalf of an Employee,
there shall be established a Separate Account in his name reflecting his
interest in the Trust.  Each Separate Account shall be maintained and
administered for each Participant and Beneficiary in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan.  The balance of each Separate Account shall be the
balance of the account after all credits and charges thereto, for and as of
such date, have been made as provided herein.

8.6 - Sub-Accounts

A Participant's Separate Account shall be divided into individual
Sub-Accounts reflecting the portion of the Participant's Separate Account
that is derived from Tax-Deferred Contributions, Rollover Contributions, or
Employer Contributions.  Each Sub-Account shall reflect separately
contributions allocated to each Trust Fund maintained hereunder and the
earnings and losses attributable thereto.  Such other Sub-Accounts may be
established as are necessary or appropriate to reflect a Participant's
interest in the Trust.


                              ARTICLE IX
                       LIFE INSURANCE CONTRACTS

                 DEPOSIT AND INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS


10.1 - Future Contribution Investment Elections

Each Eligible Employee shall make an investment election in the manner and
form prescribed by the Administrator directing the manner in which his
Tax-Deferred Contributions, Rollover Contributions, and Employer
Contributions shall be invested.  An Eligible Employee's investment
election shall specify the percentage, in the percentage increments
prescribed by the Administrator, of such contributions that shall be
allocated to one or more of the Investment Funds with the sum of such
percentages equaling 100 percent.  The investment election by a Participant
shall remain in effect until his entire interest under the Plan is

                                                                 89

distributed or forfeited in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or
until he files a change of investment election with the Administrator, in
such form as the Administrator shall prescribe.  A Participant's change of
investment election may be made effective as of the date or dates
prescribed by the Administrator.

10.2 - Deposit of Contributions

All Tax-Deferred Contributions, Rollover Contributions, and Employer
Contributions shall be deposited in the Trust and allocated among the
Investment Funds in accordance with the Participant's currently effective
investment election; provided, however, that any contributions made to the
Plan in qualifying employer securities shall be allocated to the Employer
securities Investment Fund established by the Sponsor, pending directions
to the Administrator regarding their future investment.  If no investment
election is on file with the Administrator at the time contributions are to
be deposited to a Participant's Separate Account, the Participant shall be
notified and an investment election form shall be provided to him.  Until
such Participant shall make an effective election under this Section, his
contributions shall be allocated among the Investment Funds as directed by
the Administrator.

10.3 - Election to Transfer Between Funds

A Participant may elect to transfer investments from any Investment Fund to
any other Investment Fund.  The Participant's transfer election shall
specify either (i) a percentage, in the percentage increments prescribed by
the Administrator, of the amount eligible for transfer, which percentage
may not exceed 100 percent, or (ii) a dollar amount that is to be
transferred.  Subject to any restrictions pertaining to a particular
Investment Fund, a Participant's transfer election may be made effective as
of the date or dates prescribed by the Administrator.


                            ARTICLE XI
               CREDITING AND VALUING SEPARATE ACCOUNTS


11.1 - Crediting Separate Accounts

All contributions made under the provisions of the Plan shall be credited
to Separate Accounts in the Trust Funds by the Trustee, in accordance with
procedures established in writing by the Administrator, either when
received or on the succeeding Valuation Date after valuation of the Trust
Fund has been completed for such Valuation Date as provided in Section
11.2, as shall be determined by the Administrator.

11.2 - Valuing Separate Accounts

Separate Accounts in the Trust Funds shall be valued by the Trustee on the
Valuation Date, in accordance with procedures established in writing by the
Administrator, either in the manner adopted by the Trustee and approved by
the Administrator or in the manner set forth in Section 11.3 as Plan
valuation procedures, as determined by the Administrator.



                                                                 90

11.3 - Plan Valuation Procedures

With respect to the Trust Funds, the Administrator may determine that the
following valuation procedures shall be applied.  As of each Valuation Date
hereunder, the portion of any Separate Accounts in a Trust Fund shall be
adjusted to reflect any increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund
for the period of time occurring since the immediately preceding Valuation
Date for the Trust Fund (the "valuation period") in the following manner:

(a)  First, the value of the Trust Fund shall be determined by valuing all of
     the assets of the Trust Fund at fair market value.

(b)  Next, the net increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund
     attributable to net income and all profits and losses, realized and
     unrealized, during the valuation period shall be determined on the basis
     of the valuation under paragraph (a) taking into account appropriate
     adjustments for contributions, loan payments, and transfers to and
     distributions, withdrawals, loans, and transfers from such Trust Fund
     during the valuation period.

(c)  Finally, the net increase or decrease in the value of the Trust Fund
     shall be allocated among Separate Accounts in the Trust Fund in the ratio
     of the balance of the portion of such Separate Account in the Trust Fund
     as of the preceding Valuation Date less any distributions, withdrawals,
     loans, and transfers from such Separate Account balance in the Trust Fund
     since the Valuation Date to the aggregate balances of the portions of all
     Separate Accounts in the Trust Fund similarly adjusted, and each Separate
     Account in the Trust Fund shall be credited or charged with the amount of
     its allocated share.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may
     adopt such accounting procedures as it considers appropriate and equitable
     to establish a proportionate crediting of net increase or decrease in the
     value of the Trust Fund for contributions, loan payments, and transfers to
     and distributions, withdrawals, loans, and transfers from such Trust Fund
     made by or on behalf of a Participant during the valuation period.

11.4 - Finality of Determinations

The Trustee shall have exclusive responsibility for determining the balance
of each Separate Account maintained hereunder.  The Trustee's
determinations thereof shall be conclusive upon all interested parties.

11.5 - Notification

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each Plan Year, the
Administrator shall notify each Participant and Beneficiary of the balances
of his Separate Account and Sub-Accounts as of a Valuation Date during the
Plan Year.


                              ARTICLE XII
                                 LOANS


12.1 - Application for Loan

A Participant who is a party in interest may make written application to
the Administrator for a loan from his Separate Account.


                                                                 91

As collateral for any loan granted hereunder, the Participant shall grant
to the Plan a security interest in his vested interest under the Plan equal
to the amount of the loan; provided, however, that in no event may the
security interest exceed 50 percent of the Participant's vested interest
under the Plan determined as of the date as of which the loan is originated
in accordance with Plan provisions.  In the case of a Participant who is an
active employee, the Participant also shall enter into an agreement to
repay the loan by payroll withholding.  No loan in excess of 50 percent of
the Participant's vested interest under the Plan shall be made from the
Plan.  Loans shall not be made available to Highly Compensated Employees in
an amount greater than the amount made available to other employees.

A loan shall not be granted unless the Participant consents in writing to
the charging of his Separate Account for unpaid principal and interest
amounts in the event the loan is declared to be in default.

12.2 - Reduction of Account Upon Distribution

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the amount of a
Participant's Separate Account that is distributable to the Participant or
his Beneficiary under Article XIII or XV shall be reduced by the portion of
his vested interest that is held by the Plan as security for any loan
outstanding to the Participant, provided that the reduction is used to
repay the loan.  If distribution is made because of the Participant's death
prior to the commencement of distribution of his Separate Account and less
than 100 percent of the Participant's vested interest in his Separate
Account (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) is payable to
his surviving spouse, then the balance of the Participant's vested interest
in his Separate Account shall be adjusted by reducing the vested account
balance by the amount of the security used to repay the loan, as provided
in the preceding sentence, prior to determining the amount of the benefit
payable to the surviving spouse.

12.3 - Requirements to Prevent a Taxable Distribution

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
following terms and conditions shall apply to any loan made to a
Participant under this Article:

(a)  The interest rate on any loan to a Participant shall be a reasonable
     interest rate commensurate with current interest rates charged for loans
     made under similar circumstances by persons in the business of lending
     money.

(b)  The amount of any loan to a Participant (when added to the outstanding
     balance of all other loans to the Participant from the Plan or any other
     plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company) shall not exceed the
     lesser of:

     (i)  $50,000, reduced by the excess, if any, of the highest outstanding
          balance of any other loan to the Participant from the Plan or any
          other plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company during the
          preceding 12-month period over the outstanding balance of such loans
          on the date a loan is made hereunder; or

    (ii)  50 percent of the vested portions of the Participant's Separate

                                                                 92

          Account and his vested interest under all other plans maintained by
          an Employer or a Related Company.

(c)  The term of any loan to a Participant shall be no greater than five
     years, except in the case of a loan used to acquire any dwelling unit
     which within a reasonable period of time is to be used (determined at
     the time the loan is made) as a principal residence of the Participant.

(d)  Except as otherwise permitted under Treasury regulations, substantially
     level amortization shall be required over the term of the loan with
     payments made not less frequently than quarterly.

12.4 - Administration of Loan Investment Fund

Upon approval of a loan to a Participant, the Administrator shall direct
the Trustee to transfer an amount equal to the loan amount from the
Investment Funds in which it is invested, as directed by the Administrator,
to the loan Investment Fund established in the Participant's name.  Any
loan approved by the Administrator shall be made to the Participant out of
the Participant's loan Investment Fund.  All principal and interest paid by
the Participant on a loan made under this Article shall be deposited to his
Separate Account and shall be allocated upon receipt among the Investment
Funds in accordance with the Participant's currently effective investment
election.  The balance of the Participant's loan Investment Fund shall be
decreased by the amount of principal payments and the loan Investment Fund
shall be terminated when the loan has been repaid in full.

12.5 - Default

If a Participant fails to make or cause to be made, any payment required
under the terms of the loan within 90 days following the date on which such
payment shall become due or there is an outstanding principal balance
existing on a loan after the last scheduled repayment date, the
Administrator shall direct the Trustee to declare the loan to be in
default, and the entire unpaid balance of such loan, together with accrued
interest, shall be immediately due and payable.  In any such event, if such
balance and interest thereon is not then paid, the Trustee shall charge the
Separate Account of the borrower with the amount of such balance and
interest as of the earliest date a distribution may be made from the Plan
to the borrower without adversely affecting the tax qualification of the
Plan or of the cash or deferred arrangement.

12.6 - Special Rules Applicable to Loans

Any loan made hereunder shall be subject to the following rules:

(a)  Loans limited to Eligible Employees:  No loans shall be made to an
     Employee who makes a Rollover Contribution in accordance with Article V,
     but who is not an Eligible Employee as provided in Article III.

(b)  Minimum Loan Amount:  A Participant may not request a loan for less than
     $1,000.

(c)  Maximum Number of Outstanding Loans:  A Participant with an outstanding
     loan may not apply for another loan until the existing loan is paid in
     full and may not refinance an existing loan or attain a second loan for

                                                                 93

     the purpose of paying off the existing loan.  A Participant may not apply
     for more than one loan during the Plan Year.  The provisions of this
     paragraph shall not apply to any loans made prior to the effective date of
     this amendment and restatement; provided, however, that a Participant may
     not apply for a new loan hereunder until all outstanding loans made to
     the Participant prior to the effective date of this amendment and
     restatement have been paid in full.

(d)  Maximum Period for Real Estate Loans:  The term of any loan to a
     Participant that is used to acquire any dwelling unit which within a
     reasonable period of time is to be used (determined at the time the loan
     is made) as a principal residence of the Participant shall be no greater
     than ten years.

(e)  Pre-Payment Without Penalty:  A Participant may pre-pay the balance of
     any loan hereunder prior to the date it is due without penalty.

(f)  Effect of Termination of Employment:  Upon a Participant's termination
     of employment, the balance of any outstanding loan hereunder shall
     immediately become due and owing.

12.7 - Loans Granted Prior to Amendment

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, any
loan made under the provisions of the Plan as in effect prior to this
amendment and restatement shall remain outstanding until repaid in
accordance with its terms or the otherwise applicable Plan provisions.


                             ARTICLE XIII
                      WITHDRAWALS WHILE EMPLOYED


13.1 - Withdrawals of Rollover Contributions

A Participant who is employed by an Employer or a Related Company and is
determined by the Administrator to have incurred a hardship as defined in
this Article may elect in writing, subject to the limitations and
conditions prescribed in this Article, to make a cash withdrawal from his
Rollover Contributions Sub-Account.

13.2 - Withdrawals of Tax-Deferred Contributions

A Participant who is employed by an Employer or a Related Company and who
is determined by the Administrator to have incurred a hardship as defined
in this Article may elect in writing, subject to the limitations and
conditions prescribed in this Article, to make a cash withdrawal from his
Tax-Deferred Contributions Sub-Account.  The maximum amount that a
Participant may withdraw pursuant to this Section because of a hardship is
the balance of his Tax-Deferred Contributions Sub-Account, exclusive of any
earnings credited to such Sub-Account as of a date that is after December
31, 1988.


                                                                 94

13.3 - Conditions and Limitations on Hardship Withdrawals

A Participant must file a written application for a hardship withdrawal

with the Administrator such number of days prior to the date as of which it
is to be effective as the Administrator may prescribe.  Hardship
withdrawals may be made effective as soon as reasonably practicable
following the Administrator's receipt of the Participant's directions.  The
Administrator shall grant a hardship withdrawal only if it determines that
the withdrawal is necessary to meet an immediate and heavy financial need
of the Participant.  An immediate and heavy financial need of the
Participant means a financial need on account of:

(a)  expenses previously incurred by or necessary to obtain for the
     Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any dependent of the
     Participant (as defined in Section 152 of the Code) medical care
     described in Section 213(d) of the Code;

(b)  costs directly related to the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of
     a principal residence for the Participant;

(c)  payment of tuition, related educational fees, and room and board
     expenses for the next 12 months of post-secondary education for the
     Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any dependent of the
     Participant; or

(d)  the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his principal
     residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal
     residence.

A withdrawal shall be deemed to be necessary to satisfy an immediate and
heavy financial need of a Participant only if all of the following
requirements are satisfied:

The withdrawal is not in excess of the amount of the immediate and heavy
financial need of the Participant.

The Participant has obtained all distributions, other than hardship
distributions, and all non-taxable loans currently available under all
plans maintained by an Employer or any Related Company.

The Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions and the Participant's elective
tax-deferred contributions and employee after-tax contributions under all
other tax-qualified plans maintained by an Employer or any Related Company
shall be suspended for at least twelve months after his receipt of the
withdrawal.

The Participant shall not make Tax-Deferred Contributions or elective
tax-deferred contributions under any other tax-qualified plan maintained by
an Employer or any Related Company for the Participant's taxable year
immediately following the taxable year of the withdrawal in excess of the
applicable limit under Section 402(g) of the Code for such next taxable
year less the amount of the Participant's Tax-Deferred Contributions and
elective tax-deferred contributions under any other plan maintained by an
Employer or any Related Company for the taxable year of the withdrawal.

The minimum hardship withdrawal that a Participant may make is $1,000.  The
amount of a hardship withdrawal may include any amounts necessary to pay
any Federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably
anticipated to result from the distribution.  A Participant shall not fail

                                                                 95

to be treated as an Eligible Employee for purposes of applying the
limitations contained in Article VII of the Plan merely because his
Tax-Deferred Contributions are suspended in accordance with this Section.

13.4 - Order of Withdrawal from a Participant's Sub-Accounts

Distribution of a withdrawal amount shall be made from a Participant's
Sub-Accounts, to the extent necessary, in the order prescribed by the
Administrator, which order shall be uniform with respect to all
Participants and non-discriminatory.  If the Sub-Account from which a
Participant is receiving a withdrawal is invested in more than one
Investment Fund, the withdrawal shall be charged against the Investment
Funds as directed by the Administrator.


                             ARTICLE XIV
              TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND SETTLEMENT DATE


14.1 - Termination of Employment and Settlement Date

A Participant's Settlement Date shall occur on the date he terminates
employment with an Employer and all Related Companies because of death,
disability, retirement, or other termination of employment.  Written notice
of a Participant's Settlement Date shall be given by the Administrator to
the Trustee.


                             ARTICLE XV
                           DISTRIBUTIONS


15.1 - Distributions to Participants

A Participant whose Settlement Date occurs shall receive distribution of
his vested interest in his Separate Account in the form provided under
Article XVI beginning as soon as reasonably practicable following his
Settlement Date or the date his application for distribution is filed with
the Administrator, if later.  In addition, a Participant who continues in
employment with an Employer or a Related Company after his Normal
Retirement Date may elect to receive distribution of all or any portion of
his Separate Account in the form provided under Article XVI at any time
following his Normal Retirement Date.

15.2 - Distributions to Beneficiaries

If a Participant dies prior to the date distribution of his vested interest
in his Separate Account begins under this Article, his Beneficiary shall
receive distribution of the Participant's vested interest in his Separate
Account in the form provided under Article XVI beginning as soon as
reasonably practicable following the date the Beneficiary's application for
distribution is filed with the Administrator.  Unless distribution is to be
made over the life or over a period certain not greater than the life
expectancy of the Beneficiary, distribution of the Participant's entire
vested interest shall be made to the Beneficiary no later than the end of
the fifth calendar year beginning after the Participant's death.  If

                                                                 96

distribution is to be made over the life or over a period certain no
greater than the life expectancy of the Beneficiary, distribution shall
commence no later than:

(a)  If the Beneficiary is not the Participant's spouse, the end of the first
     calendar year beginning after the Participant's death; or

(b)  If the Beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, the later of (i) the end
     of the first calendar year beginning after the Participant's death or (ii)
     the end of the calendar year in which the Participant would have attained
     age 70 1/2.

If distribution is to be made to a Participant's spouse, it shall be made
available within a reasonable period of time after the Participant's death
that is no less favorable than the period of time applicable to other
distributions.  If a Participant dies after the date distribution of his
vested interest in his Separate Account begins under this Article, but
before his entire vested interest in his Separate Account is distributed,
his Beneficiary shall receive distribution of the remainder of the
Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account beginning as soon as
reasonably practicable following the Participant's date of death in a form
that provides for distribution at least as rapidly as under the form in
which the Participant was receiving distribution.

15.3 - Cash Outs and Participant Consent

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a
Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account does not exceed
$3,500, distribution of such vested interest shall be made to the
Participant in a single sum payment as soon as reasonably practicable
following his Settlement Date.  If a Participant's vested interest in his
Separate Account exceeds $3,500, distribution shall not commence to such
Participant prior to his Normal Retirement Date without the Participant's
written consent.  If at the time of a distribution or deemed distribution
to a Participant from his Separate Account, the Participant's vested
interest in his Separate Account exceeded $3,500, then for purposes of this
Section, the Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account on any
subsequent date shall be deemed to exceed $3,500.

15.4 - Required Commencement of Distribution

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary,
distribution of a Participant's vested interest in his Separate Account
shall commence to the Participant no later than the earlier of:

(a)  60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which (i) the Participant's
     Normal Retirement Date occurs, (ii) the 10th anniversary of the year in
     which he commenced participation in the Plan occurs, or (iii) his
     Settlement Date occurs, whichever is latest; or

(b)  the April 1 following the close of the calendar year in which he attains
     age 70 1/2, whether or not his Settlement Date has occurred, except that
     if a Participant attained age 70 1/2 prior to January 1, 1988, and was
     not a five-percent owner (as defined in Section 416 of the Code) at any
     time during the five-Plan-Year period ending within the calendar year in
     which he attained age 70 1/2, distribution of such Participant's vested

                                                                 97

     interest in his Separate Account shall commence no later than the April 1
     following the close of the calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2
     or retires, whichever is later.

Distributions required to commence under this Section shall be made in the
form provided under Article XVI and in accordance with Section 401(a)(9) of
the Code and regulations issued thereunder, including the minimum
distribution incidental benefit requirements.

15.5 - Reemployment of a Participant

If a Participant whose Settlement Date has occurred is reemployed by an
Employer or a Related Company, he shall lose his right to any distribution
or further distributions from the Trust arising from his prior Settlement
Date and his interest in the Trust shall thereafter be treated in the same
manner as that of any other Participant whose Settlement Date has not
occurred.

15.6 - Restrictions on Alienation

Except as provided in Section 401(a)(13) of the Code relating to qualified
domestic relations orders and Section 1.401(a)-13(b)(2) of Treasury
regulations relating to Federal tax levies and judgments, no benefit under
the Plan at any time shall be subject in any manner to anticipation,
alienation, assignment (either at law or in equity), encumbrance,
garnishment, levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process; and no
person shall have power in any manner to anticipate, transfer, assign
(either at law or in equity), alienate or subject to attachment,
garnishment, levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process, or in
any way encumber his benefits under the Plan, or any part thereof, and any
attempt to do so shall be void.

15.7 - Facility of Payment

If the Administrator finds that any individual to whom an amount is payable
hereunder is incapable of attending to his financial affairs because of any
mental or physical condition, including the infirmities of advanced age,
such amount (unless prior claim therefor shall have been made by a duly
qualified guardian or other legal representative) may, in the discretion of
the Administrator, be paid to another person for the use or benefit of the
individual found incapable of attending to his financial affairs or in
satisfaction of legal obligations incurred by or on behalf of such
individual.  The Trustee shall make such payment only upon receipt of
written instructions to such effect from the Administrator.  Any such
payment shall be charged to the Separate Account from which any such
payment would otherwise have been paid to the individual found incapable of
attending to his financial affairs and shall be a complete discharge of any
liability therefor under the Plan.

15.8 - Inability to Locate Payee

If any benefit becomes payable to any person, or to the executor or
administrator of any deceased person, and if that person or his executor or
administrator does not present himself to the Administrator within a
reasonable period after the Administrator mails written notice of his
eligibility to receive a distribution hereunder to his last known address

                                                                 98

and makes such other diligent effort to locate the person as the
Administrator determines, that benefit will be forfeited.  However, if the
payee later files a claim for that benefit, the benefit will be restored.

15.9 - Distribution Pursuant to Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a
qualified domestic relations order so provides, distribution may be made to
an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, as
defined in Section 414(p) of the Code, regardless of whether the
Participant's Settlement Date has occurred or whether the Participant is
otherwise entitled to receive a distribution under the Plan.


                             ARTICLE XVI
                           FORM OF PAYMENT


16.1 - Normal Form of Payment

Unless the Participant, or his Beneficiary, if the Participant has died,
elects the optional form of payment, distribution shall be made to the
Participant, or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, in a single sum
payment.  Distribution of the fair market value of the Participant's
Separate Account under either the normal or optional forms of payment shall
be made in cash or in kind, as elected by the Participant, except that
distribution shall not be made in Employer stock.

16.2 - Optional Form of Payment

A Participant, or his Beneficiary, as the case may be, may elect to receive
distribution in a series of installments over a period not exceeding the
life expectancy of the Participant, or the Participant's Beneficiary, if
the Participant has died, or a period not exceeding the joint life and last
survivor expectancy of the Participant and his Beneficiary.  Each
installment shall be equal in amount except as necessary to adjust for any
changes in the value of the Participant's Separate Account.  The
determination of life expectancies shall be made on the basis of the
expected return multiples in Table V and VI of Section 1.72-9 of the
Treasury regulations and shall be calculated either once at the time
installment payments begin or annually for the Participant and/or his
Beneficiary, if his Beneficiary is his spouse, as determined by the
Participant at the time installment payments begin.

16.3 - Change of Option Election

A Participant or Beneficiary who has elected the optional form of payment
may revoke or change his election at any time prior to the date as of which
his benefit commences by filing with the Administrator a written election
in the form prescribed by the Administrator.

16.4 - Direct Rollover

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in lieu of
receiving distribution in the form of payment provided under this Article,
a "qualified distributee" may elect in writing, in accordance with rules

                                                                 99

prescribed by the Administrator, to have any portion or all of a
distribution made on or after January 1, 1993, that is an "eligible
rollover distribution" paid directly by the Plan to the "eligible
retirement plan" designated by the "qualified distributee"; provided,
however, that this provision shall not apply if the total distribution is
less than $200 and that a "qualified distributee" may not elect this
provision with respect to a portion of a distribution that is less than
$500.  Any such payment by the Plan to another "eligible retirement plan"
shall be a direct rollover.  For purposes of this Section, the following
terms have the following meanings:

(a)  An "eligible retirement plan" means an individual retirement account
     described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity
     described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in
     Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section
     401(a) of the Code that accepts rollovers; provided, however, that, in
     the case of a direct rollover by a surviving spouse, an eligible
     retirement plan does not include a qualified trust described in Section
     401(a) of the Code.

(b)  An "eligible rollover distribution" means any distribution of all or any
     portion of the balance of a Participant's Separate Account; provided,
     however, that an eligible rollover distribution does not include:  any
     distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal periodic
     payments made not less frequently than annually for the life or life
     expectancy of the qualified distributee or the joint lives or joint life
     expectancies of the qualified distributee and the qualified distributee's
     designated beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more;
     and any distribution to the extent such distribution is required under
     Section 401(a)(9) of the Code.

(c)  A "qualified distributee" means a Participant, his surviving spouse, or
     his spouse or former spouse who is an alternate payee under a qualified
     domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code.

16.5 - Notice Regarding Forms of Payment

Within the 60 day period ending 30 days before the date as of which
distribution of a Participant's Separate Account commences, the
Administrator shall provide the Participant with a written explanation of
his right to defer distribution until his Normal Retirement Date, or such
later date as may be provided in the Plan, his right to make a direct
rollover, and the forms of payment available under the Plan.  Distribution
of the Participant's Separate Account may commence less than 30 days after
such notice is provided to the Participant if (i) the Administrator clearly
informs the Participant of his right to consider his election of whether or
not to make a direct rollover or to receive a distribution prior to his
Normal Retirement Date and his election of a form of payment for a period
of at least 30 days following his receipt of the notice and (ii) the
Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively elects an early
distribution.

16.6 - Reemployment

If a Participant is reemployed by an Employer or a Related Company prior to
receiving distribution of the entire balance of his vested interest in his

                                                                100

Separate Account, his prior election of a form of payment hereunder shall
become ineffective.


                              ARTICLE XVII
                             BENEFICIARIES


17.1 - Designation of Beneficiary

A married Participant's Beneficiary shall be his spouse, unless the
Participant designates a person or persons other than his spouse as
Beneficiary with his spouse's written consent.  A Participant may designate
a Beneficiary on the form prescribed by the Administrator.  If no
Beneficiary has been designated pursuant to the provisions of this Section,
or if no Beneficiary survives the Participant and he has no surviving
spouse, then the Beneficiary under the Plan shall be the Participant's
estate.  If a Beneficiary dies after becoming entitled to receive a
distribution under the Plan but before distribution is made to him in full,
and if no other Beneficiary has been designated to receive the balance of
the distribution in that event, the estate of the deceased Beneficiary
shall be the Beneficiary as to the balance of the distribution.

17.2 - Spousal Consent Requirements

Any written spousal consent given pursuant to this Article must acknowledge
the effect of the action taken and must be witnessed by a Plan
representative or a notary public.  In addition, the spouse's written
consent must either (i) specify any non-spouse Beneficiary designated by
the Participant and that such Beneficiary may not be changed without
written spousal consent or (ii) acknowledge that the spouse has the right
to limit consent to a specific Beneficiary, but permit the Participant to
change the designated Beneficiary without the spouse's further consent.  A
Participant's spouse will be deemed to have given written consent to the
Participant's designation of Beneficiary if the Participant establishes to
the satisfaction of a Plan representative that such consent cannot be
obtained because the spouse cannot be located or because of other
circumstances set forth in Section 401(a)(11) of the Code and regulations
issued thereunder.  Any written consent given or deemed to have been given
by a Participant's spouse hereunder shall be valid only with respect to the
spouse who signs the consent.


                           ARTICLE XVIII
                           ADMINISTRATION


18.1 - Authority of the Sponsor

The Sponsor, which shall be the administrator for purposes of ERISA and the
plan administrator for purposes of the Code, shall be responsible for the
administration of the Plan and, in addition to the powers and authorities
expressly conferred upon it in the Plan, shall have all such powers and
authorities as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan,
including the power and authority to interpret and construe the provisions
of the Plan, to make benefit determinations, and to resolve any disputes

                                                                101

which arise under the Plan.  The Sponsor may employ such attorneys, agents,
and accountants as it may deem necessary or advisable to assist in carrying
out its duties hereunder.  The Sponsor shall be a "named fiduciary" as that
term is defined in Section 402(a)(2) of ERISA.  The Sponsor may:

(a)  allocate any of the powers, authority, or responsibilities for the
     operation and administration of the Plan (other than trustee
     responsibilities as defined in Section 405(c)(3) of ERISA) among named
     fiduciaries; and

(b)  designate a person or persons other than a named fiduciary to carry out
     any of such powers, authority, or responsibilities;

except that no allocation by the Sponsor of, or designation by the Sponsor
with respect to, any of such powers, authority, or responsibilities to
another named fiduciary or a person other than a named fiduciary shall
become effective unless such allocation or designation shall first be
accepted by such named fiduciary or other person in a writing signed by it
and delivered to the Sponsor.

18.2 - Action of the Sponsor

Any act authorized, permitted, or required to be taken under the Plan by
the Sponsor and which has not been delegated in accordance with Section
18.1, may be taken by a majority of the members of the board of directors
of the Sponsor, either by vote at a meeting, or in writing without a
meeting, or by the employee or employees of the Sponsor designated by the
board of directors to carry out such acts on behalf of the Sponsor.  All
notices, advice, directions, certifications, approvals, and instructions
required or authorized to be given by the Sponsor as under the Plan shall
be in writing and signed by either (i) a majority of the members of the
board of directors of the Sponsor or by such member or members as may be
designated by an instrument in writing, signed by all the members thereof,
as having authority to execute such documents on its behalf, or (ii) the
employee or employees authorized to act for the Sponsor in accordance with
the provisions of this Section.

18.3 - Claims Review Procedure

Whenever a claim for benefits under the Plan filed by any person (herein
referred to as the "Claimant") is denied, whether in whole or in part, the
Sponsor shall transmit a written notice of such decision to the Claimant
within 90 days of the date the claim was filed or, if special circumstances
require an extension, within 180 days of such date, which notice shall be
written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and shall
contain a statement of (i) the specific reasons for the denial of the
claim, (ii) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the
denial is based, and (iii) a description of any additional material or
information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the claim and an
explanation of why such information is necessary.  The notice shall also
include a statement advising the Claimant that, within 60 days of the date
on which he receives such notice, he may obtain review of such decision in
accordance with the procedures hereinafter set forth.  Within such 60-day
period, the Claimant or his authorized representative may request that the
claim denial be reviewed by filing with the Sponsor a written request
therefor, which request shall contain the following information:

                                                                102

(a)  the date on which the Claimant's request was filed with the Sponsor;
     provided, however, that the date on which the Claimant's request for
     review was in fact filed with the Sponsor shall control in the event
     that the date of the actual filing is later than the date stated by the
     Claimant pursuant to this paragraph;

(b)  the specific portions of the denial of his claim which the Claimant
     requests the Sponsor to review;

(c)  a statement by the Claimant setting forth the basis upon which he
     believes the Sponsor should reverse the previous denial of his claim
     for benefits and accept his claim as made; and

(d)  any written material (offered as exhibits) which the Claimant desires
     the Sponsor to examine in its consideration of his position as stated
     pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section.

Within 60 days of the date determined pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
Section or, if special circumstances require an extension, within 120 days
of such date, the Sponsor shall conduct a full and fair review of the
decision denying the Claimant's claim for benefits and shall render its
written decision on review to the Claimant.  The Sponsor's decision on
review shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the
Claimant and shall specify the reasons and Plan provisions upon which the
Sponsor's decision was based.

18.4 - Qualified Domestic Relations Orders

The Sponsor shall establish reasonable procedures to determine the status
of domestic relations orders and to administer distributions under domestic
relations orders which are deemed to be qualified orders.  Such procedures
shall be in writing and shall comply with the provisions of Section 414(p)
of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.

18.5 - Indemnification

In addition to whatever rights of indemnification the members of the board
of directors of the Sponsor or any employee or employees of the Sponsor to
whom any power, authority, or responsibility is delegated pursuant to
Section 18.2, may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or
regulations of the Sponsor, under any provision of law, or under any other
agreement, the Sponsor shall satisfy any liability actually and reasonably
incurred by any such person or persons, including expenses, attorneys'
fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement (other than amounts
paid in settlement not approved by the Sponsor), in connection with any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding which is
related to the exercising or failure to exercise by such person or persons
of any of the powers, authority, responsibilities, or discretion as
provided under the Plan, or reasonably believed by such person or persons
to be provided hereunder, and any action taken by such person or persons in
connection therewith, unless the same is judicially determined to be the
result of such person or persons' gross negligence or willful misconduct.


                                                                103

18.6 - Actions Binding

Subject to the provisions of Section 18.3, any action taken by the Sponsor
which is authorized, permitted, or required under the Plan shall be final
and binding upon the Employers, the Trustee, all persons who have or who
claim an interest under the Plan, and all third parties dealing with the
Employers or the Trustee.


                            ARTICLE XIX
                     AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION


19.1 - Amendment

Subject to the provisions of Section 19.2, the Sponsor may at any time and
from time to time, by action of its board of directors, amend the Plan,
either prospectively or retroactively.  Any such amendment shall be by
written instrument executed by the Sponsor.

19.2 - Limitation on Amendment

The Sponsor shall make no amendment to the Plan which shall decrease the
accrued benefit of any Participant or Beneficiary, except that nothing
contained herein shall restrict the right to amend the provisions of the
Plan relating to the administration of the Plan and Trust.  Moreover, no
such amendment shall be made hereunder which shall permit any part of the
Trust to revert to an Employer or any Related Company or be used or be
diverted to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of Participants and
Beneficiaries.

19.3 - Termination

The Sponsor reserves the right, by action of its board of directors, to
terminate the Plan as to all Employers at any time (the effective date of
such termination being hereinafter referred to as the "termination date").
Upon any such termination of the Plan, the following actions shall be taken
for the benefit of Participants and Beneficiaries:

(a)  As of the termination date, each Investment Fund shall be valued and
     all Separate Accounts and Sub-Accounts shall be adjusted in the manner
     provided in Article XI, with any unallocated contributions or forfeitures
     being allocated as of the termination date in the manner otherwise
     provided in the Plan.  The termination date shall become a Valuation Date
     for purposes of Article XI.  In determining the net worth of the Trust,
     there shall be included as a liability such amounts as shall be necessary
     to pay all expenses in connection with the termination of the Trust and
     the liquidation and distribution of the property of the Trust, as well as
     other expenses, whether or not accrued, and shall include as an asset all
     accrued income.

(b)  All Separate Accounts shall then be disposed of to or for the benefit of
     each Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of
     Article XV as if the termination date were his Settlement Date; provided,
     however, that notwithstanding the provisions of Article XV, if the Plan
     does not offer an annuity option and if neither his Employer nor a Related
     Company establishes or maintains another defined contribution plan (other
     than an employee stock ownership plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of
     the Code), the Participant's written consent to the commencement of

                                                                104

     distribution shall not be required regardless of the value of the vested
     portions of his Separate Account.

(c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, no
     distribution shall be made to a Participant of any portion of the balance
     of his Tax-Deferred Contributions Sub-Account prior to his separation from
     service (other than a distribution made in accordance with Article XIII
     or required in accordance with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code) unless (i)
     neither his Employer nor a Related Company establishes or maintains
     another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock ownership
     plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code, a tax credit employee
     stock ownership plan as defined in Section 409 of the Code, or a
     simplified employee pension as defined in Section 408(k) of the Code)
     either at the time the Plan is terminated or at any time during the period
     ending 12 months after distribution of all assets from the Plan; provided,
     however, that this provision shall not apply if fewer than two percent
     of the Eligible Employees under the Plan were eligible to participate at
     any time in such other defined contribution plan during the 24-month
     period beginning 12 months before the Plan termination, and (ii) the
     distribution the Participant receives is a "lump sum distribution" as
     defined in Section 402(e)(4) of the Code, without regard to clauses (i),
     (ii), (iii), and (iv) of sub-paragraph (A), sub-paragraph (B), or
     sub-paragraph (H) thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, upon any
such Plan termination, the vested interest of each Participant and
Beneficiary in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be 100 percent;
and, if there is a partial termination of the Plan, the vested interest of
each Participant and Beneficiary who is affected by the partial termination
in his Employer Contributions Sub-Account shall be 100 percent.  For
purposes of the preceding sentence only, the Plan shall be deemed to
terminate automatically if there shall be a complete discontinuance of
contributions hereunder by all Employers.

19.4 - Reorganization

The merger, consolidation, or liquidation of any Employer with or into any
other Employer or a Related Company shall not constitute a termination of
the Plan as to such Employer.  If an Employer disposes of substantially all
of the assets used by the Employer in a trade or business or disposes of a
subsidiary and in connection therewith one or more Participants terminates
employment but continues in employment with the purchaser of the assets or
with such subsidiary, no distribution from the Plan shall be made to any
such Participant prior to his separation from service (other than a
distribution made in accordance with Article XIII or required in accordance
with Section 401(a)(9) of the Code), except that a distribution shall be
permitted to be made in such a case, subject to the Participant's consent
(to the extent required by law), if (i) the distribution would constitute a
"lump sum distribution" as defined in section 402(e)(4) of the Code,
without regard to clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of sub-paragraph (A),
sub-paragraph (B), or sub-paragraph (H) thereof, (ii) the Employer
continues to maintain the Plan after the disposition, (iii) the purchaser
does not maintain the Plan after the disposition, and (iv) the distribution
is made by the end of the second calendar year after the calendar year in
which the disposition occurred.


                                                                105

19.5 - Withdrawal of an Employer

An Employer other than the Sponsor may withdraw from the Plan at any time
upon notice in writing to the Administrator (the effective date of such
withdrawal being hereinafter referred to as the "withdrawal date"), and
shall thereupon cease to be an Employer for all purposes of the Plan.  An
Employer shall be deemed automatically to withdraw from the Plan in the
event of its complete discontinuance of contributions.  Upon the withdrawal
of an Employer, the withdrawing Employer shall determine whether a partial
termination has occurred with respect to its Employees.  In the event that
the withdrawing Employer determines a partial termination has occurred, the
action specified in Section 19.3 shall be taken as of the withdrawal date,
as on a termination of the Plan, but with respect only to Participants who
are employed solely by the withdrawing Employer, and who, upon such
withdrawal, are neither transferred to nor continued in employment with any
other Employer or a Related Company.  The interest of any Participant
employed by the withdrawing Employer who is transferred to or continues in
employment with any other Employer or a Related Company, and the interest
of any Participant employed solely by an Employer or a Related Company
other than the withdrawing Employer, shall remain unaffected by such
withdrawal; no adjustment to his Separate Accounts shall be made by reason
of the withdrawal; and he shall continue as a Participant hereunder subject
to the remaining provisions of the Plan.


                             ARTICLE XX
                     ADOPTION BY OTHER ENTITIES


20.1 - Adoption by Other Entities

Any other entity that is not an Employer may, with the consent of the
Sponsor, adopt the Plan and become an Employer hereunder by causing an
appropriate written instrument evidencing such adoption to be executed in
accordance with the requirements of its organizational authority.  Any such
instrument shall specify the effective date of the adoption.

20.2 - Effective Plan Provisions

An Employer who adopts the Plan shall be bound by the provisions of the
Plan in effect at the time of the adoption and as subsequently in effect
because of any amendment to the Plan.


                            ARTICLE XXI
                      MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS


21.1 - No Commitment as to Employment

Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a commitment or agreement
upon the part of any person to continue his employment with an Employer or
Related Company, or as a commitment on the part of any Employer or Related
Company to continue the employment, compensation, or benefits of any person
for any period.


                                                                106

21.2 - Benefits

Nothing in the Plan nor the Trust Agreement shall be construed to confer
any right or claim upon any person, firm, or corporation other than the
Employers, the Trustee, Participants, and Beneficiaries.

21.3 - No Guarantees

The Employers, the Administrator, and the Trustee do not guarantee the
Trust from loss or depreciation, nor do they guarantee the payment of any
amount which may become due to any person hereunder.

21.4 - Expenses

The expenses of administration of the Plan, including the expenses of the
Administrator and fees of the Trustee, shall be paid from the Trust as a
general charge thereon, unless the Sponsor elects to make payment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sponsor may direct that administrative
expenses that are allocable to the Separate Account of a specific
Participant shall be paid from that Separate Account and the costs incident
to the management of the assets of an Investment Fund or to the purchase or
sale of securities held in an Investment Fund shall be paid by the Trustee
from such Investment Fund.

21.5 - Precedent

Except as otherwise specifically provided, no action taken in accordance
with the Plan shall be construed or relied upon as a precedent for similar
action under similar circumstances.

21.6 - Duty to Furnish Information

The Employers, the Administrator, and the Trustee shall furnish to any of
the others any documents, reports, returns, statements, or other
information that the other reasonably deems necessary to perform its duties
hereunder or otherwise imposed by law.

21.7 - Withholding

The Trustee shall withhold any tax which by any present or future law is
required to be withheld, and which the Administrator notifies the Trustee
in writing is to be so withheld, from any payment to any Participant or
Beneficiary hereunder.

21.8 - Merger, Consolidation, or Transfer of Plan Assets

The Plan shall not be merged or consolidated with any other plan, nor shall
any of its assets or liabilities be transferred to another plan, unless,
immediately after such merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets or
liabilities, each Participant in the Plan would receive a benefit under the
Plan which is at least equal to the benefit he would have received
immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets or
liabilities (assuming in each instance that the Plan had then terminated).



                                                                107

21.9 - Back Pay Awards

The provisions of this Section shall apply only to an Employee or former
Employee who becomes entitled to back pay by an award or agreement of an
Employer without regard to mitigation of damages.  If a person to whom this
Section applies was or would have become an Eligible Employee after such
back pay award or agreement has been effected, and if any such person who
had not previously elected to make Tax-Deferred Contributions pursuant to
Section 4.1 shall within 30 days of the date he receives notice of the
provisions of this Section make an election to make Tax-Deferred
Contributions in accordance with such Section 4.1 (retroactive to any
Enrollment Date as of which he was or has become eligible to do so), then
such Participant may elect that any Tax-Deferred Contributions not
previously made on his behalf but which, after application of the foregoing
provisions of this Section, would have been made under the provisions of
Article IV, shall be made out of the proceeds of such back pay award or
agreement.  In addition, if any such Employee or former Employee would have
been eligible to participate in the allocation of Employer Contributions
under the provisions of Article VI for any prior Plan Year after such back
pay award or agreement has been effected, his Employer shall make an
Employer Contribution equal to the amount of the Employer Contribution
which would have been allocated to such Participant under the provisions of
Article VI as in effect during each such Plan Year.  The amounts of such
additional contributions shall be credited to the Separate Account of such
Participant.  Any additional contributions made by such Participant and by
an Employer pursuant to this Section shall be made in accordance with, and
subject to the limitations of the applicable provisions of Articles IV, VI,
and VII.

21.10 - Condition on Employer Contributions

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan or the Trust
Agreement, any contribution of an Employer hereunder is conditioned upon
the continued qualification of the Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code,
the exempt status of the Trust under Section 501(a) of the Code, and the
deductibility of the contribution under Section 404 of the Code.  Except as
otherwise provided in this Section and Section 21.11, however, in no event
shall any portion of the property of the Trust ever revert to or otherwise
inure to the benefit of an Employer or any Related Company.

21.11 - Return of Contributions to an Employer

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Trust Agreement to
the contrary, in the event any contribution of an Employer made hereunder:

(a)  is made under a mistake of fact, or

(b)  is disallowed as a deduction under Section 404 of the Code,

such contribution may be returned to the Employer within one year after the
payment of the contribution or the disallowance of the deduction to the
extent disallowed, whichever is applicable.  In the event the Plan does not
initially qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code, any contribution of an
Employer made hereunder may be returned to the Employer within one year of
the date of denial of the initial qualification of the Plan, but only if an
application for determination was made within the period of time prescribed
under Section 403(c)(2)(B) of ERISA.


                                                                108

21.12 - Validity of Plan

The validity of the Plan shall be determined and the Plan shall be
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State or
Commonwealth in which the Sponsor has its principal place of business,
except as preempted by applicable Federal law.  The invalidity or
illegality of any provision of the Plan shall not affect the legality or
validity of any other part thereof.

21.13 - Trust Agreement

The Trust Agreement and the Trust maintained thereunder shall be deemed to
be a part of the Plan as if fully set forth herein and the provisions of
the Trust Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into the Plan.

21.14 - Parties Bound

The Plan shall be binding upon the Employers, all Participants and
Beneficiaries hereunder, and, as the case may be, the heirs, executors,
administrators, successors, and assigns of each of them.

21.15 - Application of Certain Plan Provisions

A Participant's Beneficiary, if the Participant has died, or alternate
payee under a qualified domestic relations order shall be treated as a
Participant for purposes of directing investments as provided in Article X.
For purposes of the general administrative provisions and limitations of
the Plan, a Participant's Beneficiary or alternate payee under a qualified
domestic relations order shall be treated as any other person entitled to
receive benefits under the Plan.  Upon any termination of the Plan, any
such Beneficiary or alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations
order who has an interest under the Plan at the time of such termination,
which does not cease by reason thereof, shall be deemed to be a Participant
for all purposes of the Plan.

21.16 - Leased Employees

Any leased employee, other than an excludable leased employee, shall be
treated as an employee of the Employer for which he performs services for
all purposes of the Plan; provided, however, that contributions to a
qualified plan made on behalf of a leased employee by the leasing
organization that are attributable to services for the Employer shall be
treated as having been made by the Employer and there shall be no
duplication of benefits under this Plan.  A "leased employee" means any
person who performs services for an Employer or a Related Company (the
"recipient") (other than an employee of the recipient) pursuant to an
agreement between the recipient and any other person (the "leasing
organization") on a substantially full-time basis for a period of at least
one year, provided that such services are of a type historically performed,
in the business field of the recipient, by employees.  An "excludable
leased employee" means any leased employee of the recipient who is covered
by a money purchase pension plan maintained by the leasing organization
which provides for (i) a nonintegrated employer contribution on behalf of
each participant in the plan equal to at least ten percent of compensation,
(ii) full and immediate vesting, and (iii) immediate participation by
employees of the leasing organization (other than employees who perform

                                                                109

substantially all of their services for the leasing organization or whose
compensation from the leasing organization in each plan year during the
four-year period ending with the plan year is less than $1,000); provided,
however, that leased employees do not constitute more than 20 percent of
the recipient's nonhighly compensated work force.  For purposes of this
Section, contributions or benefits provided to a leased employee by the
leasing organization that are attributable to services performed for the
recipient shall be treated as provided by the recipient.

21.17 - Transferred Funds

If funds from another qualified plan are transferred or merged into the
Plan, such funds shall be held and administered in accordance with any
restrictions applicable to them under such other plan to the extent
required by law and shall be accounted for separately to the extent
necessary to accomplish the foregoing.


                           ARTICLE XXII
                       TOP-HEAVY PROVISIONS


22.1 - Definitions

For purposes of this Article, the following terms shall have the following
meanings:

(a)  The "compensation" of an employee means compensation as defined in
     Section 415 of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.  In no event,
     however, shall the compensation of a Participant taken into account under
     the Plan for any Plan Year exceed (1) $200,000 for Plan Years beginning
     prior to January 1, 1994, or (2) $150,000 for Plan Years beginning on or
     after January 1, 1994 (subject to adjustment annually as provided in
     Section 401(a)(17)(B) and Section 415(d) of the Code; provided, however,
     that the dollar increase in effect on January 1 of any calendar year, if
     any, is effective for Plan Years beginning in such calendar year).  If the
     compensation of a Participant is determined over a period of time that
     contains fewer than 12 calendar months, then the annual compensation
     limitation described above shall be adjusted with respect to that
     Participant by multiplying the annual compensation limitation in effect
     for the Plan Year by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of
     full months in the period and the denominator of which is 12; provided,
     however, that no proration is required for a Participant who is covered
     under the Plan for less than one full Plan Year if the formula for
     allocations is based on Compensation for a period of at least 12 months.
     In determining the compensation, for purposes of applying the annual
     compensation limitation described above, of a Participant who is a
     five-percent owner or one of the ten Highly Compensated Employees
     receiving the greatest compensation for the Plan Year, the compensation of
     the Participant's spouse and of his lineal descendants who have not
     attained age 19 as of the close of the Plan Year shall be included as
     compensation of the Participant for the Plan Year.  If as a result of
     applying the family aggregation rule described in the preceding sentence
     the annual compensation limitation would be exceeded, the limitation
     shall be prorated among the affected family members in proportion to each

                                                                110

     member's compensation as determined prior to application of the family
     aggregation rules.

(b)  The "determination date" with respect to any Plan Year means the last
     day of the preceding Plan Year, except that the determination date with
     respect to the first Plan Year of the Plan, shall mean the last day of
     such Plan Year.


(c)  A "key employee" means any Employee or former Employee who is a key
     employee pursuant to the provisions of Section 416(i)(1) of the Code and
     any Beneficiary of such Employee or former Employee.

(d)  A "non-key employee" means any Employee who is not a key employee.

(e)  A "permissive aggregation group" means those plans included in each
     Employer's required aggregation group together with any other plan or
     plans of the Employer, so long as the entire group of plans would
     continue to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a)(4) and 410 of
     the Code.

(f)  A "required aggregation group" means the group of tax-qualified plans
     maintained by an Employer or a Related Company consisting of each plan
     in which a key employee participates and each other plan that enables a
     plan in which a key employee participates to meet the requirements of
     Section 401(a)(4) or Section 410 of the Code, including any plan that
     terminated within the five-year period ending on the relevant
     determination date.

(g)  A "super top-heavy group" with respect to a particular Plan Year means
     a required or permissive aggregation group that, as of the determination
     date, would qualify as a top-heavy group under the definition in
     paragraph (i) of this Section with "90 percent" substituted for "60
     percent" each place where "60 percent" appears in the definition.

(h)  A "super top-heavy plan" with respect to a particular Plan Year means a
     plan that, as of the determination date, would qualify as a top-heavy
     plan under the definition in paragraph (j) of this Section with "90
     percent" substituted for "60 percent" each place where "60 percent"
     appears in the definition.  A plan is also a "super top-heavy plan" if
     it is part of a super top-heavy group.

(i)  A "top-heavy group" with respect to a particular Plan Year means a
     required or permissive aggregation group if the sum, as of the
     determination date, of the present value of the cumulative accrued
     benefits for key employees under all defined benefit plans included in
     such group and the aggregate of the account balances of key employees
     under all defined contribution plans included in such group exceeds 60
     percent of a similar sum determined for all employees covered by the plans
     included in such group.

(j)  A "top-heavy plan" with respect to a particular Plan Year means (i),
     in the case of a defined contribution plan (including any simplified
     employee pension plan), a plan for which, as of the determination date,
     the aggregate of the accounts (within the meaning of Section 416(g) of
     the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder) of key employees
     exceeds 60 percent of the aggregate of the accounts of all participants

                                                                111

     under the plan, with the accounts valued as of the relevant valuation
     date and increased for any distribution of an account balance made in the
     five-year period ending on the determination date, (ii), in the case of a
     defined benefit plan, a plan for which, as of the determination date, the
     present value of the cumulative accrued benefits payable under the plan
     (within the meaning of Section 416(g) of the Code and the regulations and
     rulings thereunder) to key employees exceeds 60 percent of the present
     value of the cumulative accrued benefits under the plan for all employees,
     with the present value of accrued benefits to be determined under the
     accrual method uniformly used under all plans maintained by an Employer
     or, if no such method exists, under the slowest accrual method permitted
     under the fractional accrual rate of Section 411(b)(1)(C) of the Code
     and including the present value of any part of any accrued benefits
     distributed in the five-year period ending on the determination date,
     and (iii) any plan (including any simplified employee pension plan)
     included in a required aggregation group that is a top-heavy group.  For
     purposes of this paragraph, the accounts and accrued benefits of any
     employee who has not performed services for an Employer or a Related
     Company during the five-year period ending on the determination date
     shall be disregarded. For purposes of this paragraph, the present value
     of cumulative accrued benefits under a defined benefit plan for purposes
     of top-heavy determinations shall be calculated using the actuarial
     assumptions otherwise employed under such plan, except that the same
     actuarial assumptions shall be used for all plans within a required or
     permissive aggregation group.  A Participant's interest in the Plan
     attributable to any Rollover Contributions, except Rollover Contributions
     made from a plan maintained by an Employer or a Related Company, shall
     not be considered in determining whether the Plan is top-heavy.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a plan is included in a required or
     permissive aggregation group that is not a top-heavy group, such plan
     shall not be a top-heavy plan.

(k)  The "valuation date" with respect to any determination date means the
     most recent Valuation Date occurring within the 12-month period ending
     on the determination date.

22.2 - Applicability

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the
provisions of this Article shall be applicable during any Plan Year in
which the Plan is determined to be a top-heavy plan as hereinafter defined.

22.3 - Minimum Employer Contribution

If the Plan is determined to be a top-heavy plan, the Employer
Contributions allocated to the Separate Account of each non-key employee
who is an Eligible Employee and who is employed by an Employer or a Related
Company on the last day of such top-heavy Plan Year shall be no less than
the lesser of (i) three percent of his compensation or (ii) the largest
percentage of compensation that is allocated as an Employer Contribution
and/or Tax-Deferred Contribution for such Plan Year to the Separate Account
of any key employee; except that, in the event the Plan is part of a
required aggregation group, and the Plan enables a defined benefit plan
included in such group to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(4) or 410
of the Code, the minimum allocation of Employer Contributions to each such
non-key employee shall be three percent of the compensation of such non-key

                                                                112

employee.  Any minimum allocation to a non-key employee required by this
Section shall be made without regard to any social security contribution
made on behalf of the non-key employee, his number of hours of service, his
level of compensation, or whether he declined to make elective or mandatory
contributions.  Notwithstanding the minimum top-heavy allocation
requirements of this Section, if the Plan is a top-heavy plan, each non-key
employee who is an Eligible Employee and who is employed by an Employer or
a Related Company on the last day of a top-heavy Plan Year and who is also
covered under a top-heavy defined benefit plan maintained by an Employer or
a Related Company will receive the top-heavy benefits provided under the
defined benefit plan in lieu of the minimum top-heavy allocation under the
Plan offset by the benefits provided under the Plan.

22.4 - Adjustments to Section 415 Limitations

If the Plan is determined to be a top-heavy plan and an Employer maintains
a defined benefit plan covering some or all of the Employees that are
covered by the Plan, the defined benefit plan fraction and the defined
contribution plan fraction, described in Article VII, shall be determined
as provided in Section 415 of the Code by substituting "1.0" for "1.25"
each place where "1.25" appears, except that such substitutions shall not
be applied to the Plan if (i) the Plan is not a super top-heavy plan, (ii)
the Employer Contribution for such top-heavy Plan Year for each non-key
employee who is to receive a minimum top-heavy benefit hereunder is not
less than four percent of such non-key employee's compensation, and (iii)
the minimum annual retirement benefit accrued by a non-key employee who
participates under one or more defined benefit plans of an Employer or a
Related Company for such top-heavy Plan Year is not less than the lesser of
three percent times years of service with an Employer or a Related Company
or thirty percent.
