12. Following Section 5.4 of the Plan and effective January 13, 2002, a new Section 5.5 shall be added to the Plan to read as follows:
  5.5   Delayed Withdrawal. A Participant may petition the Committee to withdraw all or a portion of his or her vested Account Balance and vested Merger Account balance excluding the portion of the Account Balance attributable to the Restricted Stock Account. The Participant shall make this election by giving written notice of the election to the Committee on a form determined from time to time by the Committee. The Participant

10


 

      must specify the amount to be withdrawn and the future date on which the amount is to be paid. The requested future date of payment must be at least thirteen (13) months following the date of the written request. If the request is approved by the Committee, payment shall be made as soon as administratively possible after the first business day following the date specified by the Participant in his or her request. If prior to payment, however, an event occurs that triggers a benefit under Article 7, 8, 9, or 10 and distribution pursuant to the applicable Article occurs prior to distribution under this Section 5.5, the amount or portion of the Account Balance requested by the Participant as a delayed withdrawal shall be paid in accordance with the other applicable Article and not under this Section 5.5.”

Upon and after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the “Administrator” shall be an independent third party selected by the individual who, immediately prior to such event, was the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or, if not so identified, the Company’s highest ranking officer (the “Ex-CEO”). In the event the Chief Executive Officer or highest ranking officer is not able to perform the duties and

11


 

responsibilities of the Ex-CEO, the next highest ranking officer of the Company able to perform such duties and responsibilities shall act as the Ex-CEO. The Committee, however, as constituted immediately prior to a Change in Control, shall continue to act as the Administrator of this Plan until the date on which the independent third party selected by the Ex-CEO accepts the responsibilities of Administrator under this Plan. The Administrator shall have the discretionary power to determine all questions arising in connection with the administration of the Plan and the interpretation of the Plan and Trust except benefit entitlement determinations upon appeal; provided, however, upon and after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Administrator shall have no power to direct the investment of Plan or Trust assets or select any investment manager or custodial firm for the Plan or Trust. Upon and after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company must: (1) pay all reasonable administrative expenses and fees of the Administrator; (2) indemnify the Administrator against any costs, expenses and liabilities including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and expenses arising in connection with the performance of the Administrator hereunder, except with respect to matters resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrator or its employees or agents; and (3) supply full and timely information to the Administrator on all matters relating to the Plan, the Trust, the Participants and their Beneficiaries, the Account Balances of the Participants, the Participants’ Merger Account

12


 

balances, the date and circumstances of the Retirement, Disability, death or Termination of Employment of the Participants, and such other pertinent information as the Administrator may reasonably require. Upon and after a Change in Control, the Administrator may only be terminated (and a replacement appointed) by the Ex-CEO. Upon and after a Change in Control, the Administrator may not be terminated by the Company.”
