Board of Directors (the "Committee") waived the time vesting requirements for
portions of a certain restricted stock award (the "Restricted Stock Award")

which such portions of the Restricted Stock Award time vest from the date
determined by reference to the instrument evidencing such Award (i.e.,
October 12, 1995 and October 12, 1996) to January 20, 1995, subject to
certain conditions; and
WHEREAS, one condition to such acceleration was that the Agreement be
amended to prevent the payment pursuant to the Agreement of any "excess
parachute payment" as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, the Agreement was amended on January 20, 1995 ("Amendment No.
1");
NOW, THEREFORE, in order to fulfill the aforementioned condition
established by the Committee, the parties to the Agreement hereby agree to
further amend the Agreement and to restate Amendment No. 1 as follows:
1. The first full paragraph on page 2 of the Agreement, as amended by
Amendment No. 1, is further amended to read as follows:
"Lump Sum Compensation. The lump sum compensation payable hereunder
shall be equal to 2.999 times the average annual compensation includable in
your gross income (without regard to the exclusion of any elective
contribution or elective deferral under any plan qualified under Section
401(k) of the Code) for your most recent five taxable years ending before the
date of such change in control; provided:
a. that there shall be excluded from your gross income for 1995 one
half of the value of the shares of restricted stock that became time vested
on January 20, 1995 as a result of action by the Nominating and Compensation
Committee of the Corporation's Board of Directors (the "Committee") to
accelerate the vesting of such shares to such date (the "Accelerated
Shares"), and (b) there shall be added to your gross income for 1996 one half
of the value of the Accelerated Shares (for purposes of this proviso, the
"value" of the Accelerated Shares shall be the amount includable in your
gross income for 1995, determined without regard to this subparagraph 1., as
a result of the Committee's acceleration of the time vesting for such
shares);
b. that the amount of the lump sum payment shall be reduced by the
aggregate amount of dividends paid or declared during the Acceleration Period
on the Accelerated Shares (for purposes of this proviso, the term
"Acceleration Period" shall mean the period commencing on January 20, 1995
and ending, as to one half of the Accelerated Shares, on October 12, 1995,
and as to the other one half of the Accelerated Shares, on October 12, 1996);
and
c. that the amount of the lump sum payment shall be reduced by the
amount of any payment to you under any other plan or agreement of the
Corporation to the extent that such payment is treated as a parachute payment
under Section 280G of the Code."
2. The second paragraph on page 4 (beginning with the phrase "In
addition, . . ." on page 4 and ending at the end of subparagraph 5. on page 5
with the phrase ". . . appropriate out-placement services.") of the Agreement
is amended to read as follows:
"Vested Rights Under Other Plans. Your vested rights to any
termination distributions under any retirement plan(s) adopted by the

Except as amended, restated, modified or changed pursuant to the
provisions of this Amendment, all terms and provisions of the Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Amendment is signed by or on behalf of the
parties hereto on the date first above written.
