1.7 Withholding

The Corporation shall have the right to deduct from all amounts paid in cash any taxes required by law to be withheld therefrom.

1.8 Nontransferability

No Award shall be assignable or transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and no right or interest of any Participant shall be subject to any lien, obligation or liability of the Participant.

1.9 No Right to Employment

No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Corporation.

1.10 Construction of the Plan

(b)  With the consent of the Participant adversely affected thereby, the Committee may amend or modify any outstanding Award in any manner not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, including without limitation, to change the form of payment or the date or dates as of which (i) a Stock Option becomes exercisable, (ii) the restrictions on shares of Restricted Stock are removed, or (iii) a Performance Share Grant is payable.

(c)  In no event shall any outstanding Award be modified in such a manner as to re-price any Stock Option by (i) decreasing the purchase price thereof, or (ii) cancellation of any Stock Option prior to its established terms of expiration for the purpose of replacement by a lower-priced Stock Option, nor shall an outstanding Award of Restricted Stock be modified in a manner which will reduce the restriction period related to the Restricted Stock.

1.12 Authority of Committee

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the sole and complete authority to determine the Employees to receive Awards, and:

(a)  Stock Options. The number of shares to be covered by each Stock Option and the conditions and limitations, if any, in addition to those set forth in Section 2.2 hereof, applicable to the exercise of the Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Stock Options, or to grant Non-Qualified Stock Options, or to grant both types of Stock Options. In the case of Incentive Stock Options, the maximum aggregate Fair Market Value (at the date of grant) of the shares, under this Plan or any other plan of the Company or a corporation which (at the date of grant) is a parent of the Company or a Subsidiary, which are exercisable by an Employee for the first time during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000 or, if different, the maximum limitation in effect at the time of grant under Section 422 of the Code, or any successor provision.

(b)  Restricted Stock. The number of shares of Restricted Stock to be granted to each Participant, the duration of the Restricted Period during which and the conditions under which the Restricted Stock may be forfeited to the Company, and the terms and conditions of the Award in addition to those contained in Section 3.1 shall be determined by the Committee. Such determinations shall be made by the Committee at the time of the grant.

1.13 Effective Dates

The Plan shall be effective on December 29, 1996, and shall expire on the earlier of (i) a date determined by the Board of Directors, or (ii) the full use of the shares reserved for grant pursuant to the Plan, provided however, that the Plan shall be null and void unless approved at the 1997 annual meeting of the shareholders of the Company.

1.14 Government and Other Regulations

The obligation of the Company with respect to Awards shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of any registration statement required under the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed. For so long as the Common Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with any legal requirements (a) to maintain a registration statement in effect under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to all shares of Common Stock that may be issued to Holders under the Plan, and (b) to file in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act.

1.15 Non-Exclusivity

Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board of Directors to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable including, without limitation, the granting of stock options and the awarding of stock and cash otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

1.16 Forfeiture Provision

If the Employee has (i) used for profit or disclosed confidential information or trade secrets of the Company to unauthorized persons, or (ii) breached any contract with or violated any legal obligations to the Company, or (iii) failed to make himself or herself available to consult with, supply information to, or otherwise cooperate with the Company at reasonable times and upon a reasonable basis, or (iv) engaged in any other activity which would constitute grounds for his or her discharge for cause by the Company or a Subsidiary, the Employee will forfeit all undelivered portions of an Award.

Section 2: STOCK OPTIONS

2.1 Option Price

The Committee shall establish the option price at the time each Stock Option is granted, which price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The option price shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.5(b) hereof.

2.2 Exercise of Options

(a)  Except as stated in Section 2.2(c), each Stock Option by its terms shall require the Participant to remain in the continuous employ, or service to the Board of Directors if the individual is a Non-Employee Director and awarded Stock Options under Section 5 herein, of the Corporation for at least one year from the date of grant of the Stock Option before any part of the Stock Option shall be exercisable. Non-Qualified Stock Options and Incentive Stock Options may not be exercisable later than ten years after their date of grant.

(b)  Stock Options shall become exercisable in installments with twenty-five percent (25%) of the total Stock Option becoming exercisable upon the first anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock Option and additional increments of twenty-five percent (25%) of the total Stock Option grant shall become exercisable on each anniversary thereafter until the entire Stock Option is exercisable.

(c)  In the event a Participant ceases to be an Employee or a Non-Employee Director as a result of his death, all time periods related to the exercise of any outstanding Stock Options shall be accelerated and the Stock Options shall become exercisable immediately following the Participant’s death and extending for the remaining normal exercise period. In the event a Participant ceases to be an Employee or a Non-Employee Director upon the occurrence of his Retirement Date, Disability Date, or otherwise with the consent of the Committee, his Stock Options shall be exercisable as described in 2.2(b) above as if the individual had remained as an Employee or Non-Employee Director and extending for the normal exercise period. The Committee may at any time and with regard to all Participants or any individual Participant accelerate time periods related to the exercise of any outstanding Stock Options, and the Stock Option shall become exercisable immediately thereafter and extending for the remaining normal exercise period. In all other circumstances when a Participant ceases to be an Employee or a Non-Employee Director, his rights under all Stock Options shall terminate immediately.

(d)  Each Stock Option shall be confirmed by a Stock Option agreement executed by the Company and by the Participant which agreement shall designate the Stock Options granted as Incentive Stock Options or NonQualified Stock Options. The option price of each share as to which an Option is exercised shall be paid in full five (5) days from the date of such exercise, but in no event shall the shares issued pursuant to said option exercise be delivered to the Participant until said payment has been received by the Company. Such payment shall be made in cash, by tender of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise, subject to such limitations on the tender of Common Stock as the Committee may impose, pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Key Employee Stock Option Loan Program, if applicable, (or any other loan program or arrangement which may be established by the Company under this Plan, or otherwise) or by a combination of the foregoing.

2.3 Maximum Number of Shares

The maximum number of shares that may be granted to any Participant under all Stock Option Awards under this Plan during any one year shall not exceed 100,000 shares.

Section 3: RESTRICTED STOCK GRANTS

3.1 The terms and conditions regarding Restricted Stock grants are as follows:

(a)  Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except as herein provided, during the Restricted Period. Certificates issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Participant and deposited by him, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company. At the expiration of the Restricted Period, the Company shall deliver such certificates to the Participant or his legal representative, except that the Participant may defer receipt of his Restricted Stock under terms established by the Committee by extending the Restricted Period.

(b)  Except as provided in subsection (a) hereof, the Participant shall have all the rights of a holder of Common Stock, including but not limited to the rights to receive dividends and to vote during the Restricted Period.

(c)  In the event a Participant ceases to be an Employee or a Non-Employee Director during the Restricted Period as a result of his death, the restrictions imposed hereunder shall immediately lapse with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock. In the event a Participant ceases to be an Employee or a Non-Employee Director during the Restricted period and upon the occurrence of his Retirement Date, Disability Date, or with the consent of the Committee, the restrictions imposed hereunder shall continue as if the individual had remained as an Employee or Non-Employee Director. The Committee may at any time and with regard to all Participants or any individual Participant lapse any restrictions imposed hereunder with respect to shares of Restricted Stock. In all other circumstances in which a Participant ceases to be an Employee or Non-Employee Director, all shares of Restricted Stock shall thereupon be forfeited to the Company and the certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Stock shall be immediately canceled.

(d)  Each grant shall be confirmed by a Restricted Stock agreement executed by the Company and by the Participant.

Section 4: PERFORMANCE SHARE GRANTS

(a)  Not later than May 1 of each calendar year in which this Plan is in effect, the Committee may make a Performance Share Grant, effective as of the beginning of the year, to any Participant selected by the Committee. The Committee may make a Performance Share Grant to a Participant in any given year which relates to a Performance Period already in progress. In such event, (i) the Performance Share Grant determined under Section 4(b) shall be prorated based on the remaining whole years of the relevant Performance Period as of the date of grant compared to the entire length of the relevant Performance Period, (ii) the Participant shall receive Restricted Shares immediately upon the date of grant, and, (iii) the Total Growth Rate and level of attainment factors determined by the Committee at the beginning of the relevant Performance Period shall be used to determine the Participant’s ultimate payout under Section 4(d) herein. If awarded not later than May 1, the Performance Share Grant shall relate back to the beginning of the year in which made for purposes of proration.

(b)  The Committee shall, at the beginning of each Performance Period or not later than 90 days thereafter, determine the Performance Share Grant to be made to each Participant in Restricted Stock and establish the threshold, target and maximum levels of attainment for Total Growth Rate during the Performance Period.

(c)  If Earnings Per Share during the third year of a Performance Period are equal to or exceed the threshold for a Total Growth Rate set by the Committee at the beginning of a Performance Period, a Performance Share Multiple of 100%, 150% or 200% will be applied to the Performance Share Grant. If Earnings Per Share are below the threshold level of attainment, the Performance Share Multiple will be 0%. Below is the Total Growth Rate and the threshold, target and maximum levels of attainment for the Initial Performance Period.

Earnings Per Share	Total	Level of	Performance
Compounded	Growth	Attainment	Share
Annually	Rate		Multiple
Less than 12%	Less than
	40.5%		0%
At least 12%	At least
but less than 15%	40.5% but	Threshold	100%
	less than
	52.1%
At least 15%,	At least	Target	150%
but less than 18%	52.1% but
	less than
	64.3%
Equal to or greater	64.3% or	Maximum	200%
than 18%	greater

(d)  Payment for the value of Performance Shares Earned shall be made to a Participant not later than three months following the end of a Performance Period. If the threshold Total Growth Rate during the Performance Period is not attained in the third year the performance goals attached to the Performance Share Grant will not have been met and the Participant shall forfeit his Restricted Stock. Payment related to a Performance Share Multiple of 100% shall be the lapse of restrictions for the Participant’s Performance Share Grant and he shall receive the certificate for unrestricted ownership of such shares. Payment related to that portion, if any, of a Performance Share Multiple of 150% or 200% shall be as follows: a) for the first 100%, payment shall be the transfer of unrestricted share certificates as a result of the lapse of restrictions on the Performance Share Grant and b) for the 50% or 100% premium, payment shall be an amount of cash equal to the value of the Performance Shares Earned in excess of the 100% multiplied by the average of the closing prices per share of the Common Stock for the last month in the Performance Period. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in Section 1.6), payment shall be made as if the maximum targets for the three year performance period had been met and shall be paid within thirty days following the Change of Control. Such payment shall be in a cash amount equal to the Performance Share Grant multiplied by the higher of (i) the highest average of the high and low prices per share of the Common Stock on any date within the period commencing 30 days prior to the Change in Control or (ii) if the Change in Control occurs as a result of a tender or exchange offer or consummation of a corporate transaction, the highest price paid per share of Common Stock pursuant thereto.

(e)  The Committee may make adjustments from time to time in the Performance Share Multiple, in the Total Growth Rate or in Earnings Per Share in such reasonable manner as the Committee may determine to reflect (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Company resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of shares or any other capital adjustment, the payment of stock dividends or other increases or decreases in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, (ii) material changes in the Company’s accounting practices or principles, the effect of which would be to cause inconsistency in reporting earnings per share, (iii) material acquisitions or dispositions, the effect of which would be to cause fluctuations in reported earnings per share which are not within the intent of the Plan, or (iv) extraordinary, unusual and nonrecurring items (such as restructuring charges or a disposal of a business) which are disclosed in the published, audited financial statements; provided, however, that no such adjustments shall be made to the extent that the Committee determines that the adjustment would cause payment in respect of Performance Share Grant to fail to be fully deductible by the Company on account of Section 162(m) of the Code.

(f)  With respect to a Performance Share Grant, the Participant shall have the rights of a holder of Common Stock, including but not limited to the rights to receive dividends and to vote during the Restricted Period until such Participant ceases to be an Employee of the Corporation for any reason other than death or termination of Employment on a Disability Date or Retirement Date.

(g)  In the event a Participant ceases to be an Employee upon the occurrence of his death, Retirement Date or Disability Date prior to the end of a Period, payment for the value of Performance Shares Earned shall be prorated for the amount of time the Participant remained an Employee compared to the length of the Performance Period, provided the Participant has completed at least the first full year of the Performance Period. In such event, any prorated payment for Performance Shares Earned shall be distributed in unrestricted share certificates or paid in cash (depending on whether the threshold, target or maximum Total Growth Rate is attained) in accordance with Paragraphs (c) and (d) above. In all other circumstances in which a Participant ceases to be an Employee, Performance Share Grant shall terminate and no amounts shall be payable at any time.

(h)  If there is an event constituting a Change of Control (as defined in Section 1.6), the value of any outstanding Performance Share Grant shall immediately vest in the Participant to whom such Performance Share Grant has been awarded as of the date such Change of Control occurs and at the closing price per share of Common Stock on such date. Such value shall be equal to the maximum Performance Share Multiple multiplied by the Performance Share Grant.

Section 5: NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

(a)  Each individual then serving as a Non-Employee Director shall receive a Non-Qualified Stock Option of 2,000 shares at or about the effective date of the Plan and at the beginning of each of the Company’s fiscal years thereafter so long as the Plan is in effect. As a portion of their compensation, the Committee may also award to Non-Employee Directors shares of Restricted Stock, as it may determine, not to exceed 2,000 shares per individual every three years.
