<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;VIII of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the
"GCL"), a Director of the Company shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability
(i)&nbsp;for any breach of the Director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the GCL, or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the Director derived any improper personal benefit. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's Bylaws (Article&nbsp;XIII) provide that the Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company), by reason of the fact that he is or was a
Director or officer of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in </FONT></P>

or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With
respect to indemnification of officers and directors, Section&nbsp;145 of the GCL provides that a corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or
is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right
of the corporation) by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to be the best interests of the corporation,
and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe this conduct was unlawful. Under this provision of the GCL, the termination of any action, suit or proceeding
by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner
which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct
was unlawful. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Furthermore,
the GCL provides that a corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect or any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought
shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses
which the Court of Chancery or such court shall deem proper. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145(g)
of the GCL provides that a corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under the provisions of Section&nbsp;145. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company maintains several directors and officers liability policies which, subject to the terms and exclusions of the policies, cover any claim or claims made during the period
the policies are in force, against all persons who were, now are or shall be duly elected directors or officers of the Company for any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement
or act or omission or neglect or breach of duty by such persons insured while acting in their individual or collective capacities, on any matter, not excluded by the terms and conditions of the
policies, claimed against them solely by reason of their being directors or officers of the Company. The limit of liability under the policies is $50&nbsp;million per policy year. </FONT></P>

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 Company 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

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Compensation for a Participant in a defined contribution plan who is "permanently and totally disabled" (as defined in Code &sect;22(e)(3)) is the
compensation such Participant would have received for the Limitation Year if the Participant had been paid at the rate of compensation paid immediately before becoming permanently and totally
disabled; such imputed compensation for the disabled Participant may be taken into account only if the Participant is not a Highly Compensated Employee and contributions made on behalf of such
Participant are nonforfeitable when made. In interpreting this subsection (b), the provisions of Treas. Reg. &sect;1.415-2(d)(1), (2)&nbsp;and (3)&nbsp;or the corresponding provisions of
any future Treasury Regulations shall control. Compensation shall also include any amount which is contributed by the Employer pursuant to a salary reduction agreement and which is not includable in

one or more defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer which were in existence on May&nbsp;6, 1986, the denominator of this fraction will not be less than 125% of the sum of the annual

which no instructions are properly received. The Investment Committee's advice to Participants will include notice that allocated shares for which no instructions are received will not be tendered and

apply will be the total number of shares credited to his Account, whether or not the shares are vested, as of the close of business on the day preceding the date on which the tender offer commences.
The Investment Committee will advise the Trustee of the commencement date of any tender offer and, until receipt of that advice, the Trustee will not be obligated to take any action under this

the closing price on the tenth trading day preceding the commencement date of the tender offer or (2)&nbsp;the 30th trading day after the expiration date of the tender offer, of which the Investment
Committee will advise the Trustee. In the interim, the Trustee shall invest such funds in short term investments permitted under the Trust Agreement. </FONT></P>
