5.     Section 7(a) is amended in its entirety to correct a typographical error to read as follows:

"Crediting of Deferred Stock. Upon determination of the number of shares of Deferred Stock to be awarded to a Participant, the Committee shall direct that the same be credited to the Participant's account on the books of the Company but that issuance and delivery of the same shall be deferred until the date or dates provided in Section 7(b)."

    "(ii)  Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 6(e), in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company shall terminate on account of the death of the Participant, all Options or SARs granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were exercisable on the Participant's termination date, shall remain exercisable until the earlier of the date that is one year after the Participant's death or the expiration of the term set forth in the applicable Award Agreement."

7.     Section 13(a)(iv) is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

    "(iv)  In the event of the termination of a Participant's employment or service for Cause, all outstanding Options or SARs granted to such Participant shall expire at the commencement of business on the Participant's termination date."
