               to the Plan that relate to the Participant's Deferral Account."

2.          Effective July 1, 2003, Section 2.7 is hereby amended as follows:

              "2.7            "Deferral Amount" means the amount of Fees actually deferred under the Plan by the Participant pursuant to Section 3.1
                and the amount of Fees automatically deferred pursuant to Section 5.10 for any one Plan Year."

3.             Effective July 1, 2003, Section 2.8 is hereby amended as follows:

              "2.8            "Deferred IR Stock Award Account" means, for each Plan Year, the sum of all of a Participant's deferred stock award

                 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent a Participant elects to change his deemed investment from
                 the IR Stock Account to any one or more investment options provided under the Plan with respect to all or any portion of Fees for
                 which the Participant was credited with a Supplemental Contribution before the related Supplemental Contribution is vested, such
                 Supplemental Contribution and any related earnings shall be forfeited."

5.             Effective July 1, 2003, Section 5 is hereby amended to add a new Section 5.10 as follows:

                "5.10   Mandatory Fee Deferral. Effective July 1, 2003, on each IR Stock quarterly dividend payment date a portion of each
                  Non-employee Director's Fees equal to $15,000, or such other amount as may from time to time be established by resolution of the
                  Board, shall be deferred and credited to the Deferred IR Stock Award Account of each Non-employee Director.

                A Participant's Deferred IR Stock Award Account shall be credited as follows:

                (a)    On the day the Fees are credited to a Participant's Deferred IR Stock Award Account, the Company shall credit the Deferred IR
                         Stock Award Account with an amount equal to the Fees that are deferred pursuant to this Section.

                (b)    All Fees that are deferred pursuant to this Section shall be credited to a Participant's Deferred IR Stock Award Account in units or
                         fractional units.  The value of each unit shall be determined each business day and shall equal the closing price of one share of IR
                         Stock on the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Tape.  On each date that Fees under this Section are credited to the
                         Participant's Deferred IR Stock Award Account, the number of units to be credited shall be determined by dividing the amount of
                         such Fees by the value of a unit on such date.

                         Dividends paid on IR Stock shall be reflected in a Participant's Deferred IR Stock Award Account by the crediting of additional
                         units or fractional units.  Such additional units or fractional units shall equal the value of the dividends based upon the closing price
                         of one share of IR Stock on the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Tape on the date such dividends are paid."

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this amendment to be executed by its duly authorized representative on this 10th
                   
 day of March 2005.
