Directors and officers of the Registrant are indemnified and held harmless
against liability to the fullest extent permissible by the Indiana Business
Corporation Law as it currently exists or as it may be amended provided any such
amendment provides broader indemnification provisions than currently exists.
In accordance with the Indiana Business Corporation Law (being Title 23,
Article I, Chapter 37 of the Indiana Code), the Registrant's Articles of
Incorporation provide as follows:
ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION
SECTION 8.01. GENERAL PROVISIONS. The corporation shall, to the fullest
extent to which it is empowered to do so by the Indiana Business Corporation Act
or any other applicable laws, as from time to time in effect, 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 and whether formal or informal, by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the
corporation, or who, while serving as such director, officer or employee of the
corporation, is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
whether for profit or not, against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, settlements, penalties and fines (including excise taxes assessed
with respect to employee benefit plans) actually or reasonably incurred by him
in accordance with such action, suit or proceeding, if he acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed, in the case of
3
<PAGE> 4
conduct in his official capacity, was in the best interest of the corporation,
and in all other cases, was not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he either
had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or
proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo
contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that
the person did not meet the prescribed standard of conduct.
SECTION 8.02. INDEMNIFICATION AUTHORIZED. To the extent that a director,
officer or employee of the corporation has been successful, on the merits or
otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in
Section 8.01 of this Article, or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, the corporation shall indemnify such person against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
therewith. Any other indemnification under Section 8.01 of this Article (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the
specific case, upon a determination that indemnification of the director,
officer or employee is permissible in the circumstances because he has met the
applicable standard of conduct. Such determination shall be made (a) by the
board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who
were not at the time parties to such action, suit or proceeding; or (b) if a
quorum cannot be obtained under subdivision (a), by a majority vote of a
committee duly designated by the board of directors (in which designation
directors who are parties may participate), consisting solely of two or more
directors not at the time parties to such action, suit or proceeding; or (c) by
special legal counsel: (i) selected by the board of directors or its committee
in the manner prescribed in subdivision (a) or (b), or (ii) if a quorum of the
board of directors cannot be obtained under subdivision (a) and a committee
cannot be designated under subdivision (b), selected by a majority vote of the
full board of directors (in which selection directors who are parties may
participate); or (d) by stockholders, but shares owned by or voted under the
control of directors who are at the time parties to such action, suit or
proceeding may not be voted on the determination.
Authorization of indemnification and evaluation as to reasonableness of
expenses shall be made in the same manner as the determination that
indemnification is permissible, except that if the determination is made by
special legal counsel, authorization of indemnification and evaluation as to
reasonableness of expenses shall be made by those entitled under subsection (c)
to select counsel.
SECTION 8.03. DEFINITION OF GOOD FAITH. For purposes of any determination
under Section 8.01 of this Article, a person shall be deemed to have acted in
good faith and to have otherwise met the applicable standard of conduct set
forth in Section 8.01 if his action is based on information, opinions, reports,
or statements, including financial statements and other financial data, if
prepared or presented by (a) one or more officers or employees of the
corporation or other enterprise whom he reasonably believes to be reliable and
competent in the matters presented; (b) legal counsel, public accountants,
appraisers or other persons as to matters he reasonably believes are within the
person's professional or expert competence; or (c) a committee of the board of
directors of the corporation or another enterprise of which the person is not a
member if he reasonably believes the committee merits confidence. The term
"another enterprise" as used in this Section 8.03 shall mean any other
corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other
4
<PAGE> 5
enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent. The
provisions of this Section 8.03 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit
in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the
applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 8.01 of this Article.
SECTION 8.04. ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES. Expenses incurred in connection
with any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid for or
reimbursed by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such
action, suit or proceeding, as authorized in the specific case in the same
manner described in Section 8.02 of this Article, upon receipt of a written
affirmation of the director, officer or employee's good faith belief that he has
met the standard of conduct described in Section 8.01 of this Article and upon
receipt of a written undertaking on behalf of the director, officer or employee
to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he did not meet
the standard of conduct set forth in this Article, and a determination is made
that the facts then known to those making the determination would not preclude
indemnification under this Article.
SECTION 8.05. NON-EXCLUSIVITY. The indemnification provided by this
Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person
seeking indemnification may be entitled under these Articles of Incorporation,
the corporation's Bylaws, any resolution of the board of directors or
stockholders, any other authorization, whenever adopted, after notice, by a
majority vote of all voting stock then outstanding, or any contract, both as to
action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer or employee, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a person.
SECTION 8.06. VESTMENT OF RIGHTS. The right of any individual to
indemnification under this Article shall vest at the time of occurrence or
performance of any event, act or omission giving rise to any action, suit or
proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 8.01 of this Article and, once
vested, shall not later be impaired as a result of any amendment, repeal,
alteration or other modification of any or all of these provisions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification afforded under this Article
shall be applicable to all alleged prior acts or omissions of any individual
seeking indemnification hereunder, regardless of the fact that such alleged acts
or omissions may have occurred prior to the adoption of this Article. To the
extent such prior acts or omissions cannot be deemed to be covered by this
Article, the right of any individual to indemnification shall be governed by the
indemnification provisions in effect at the time of such prior acts or
omissions.
SECTION 8.07. INSURANCE. The corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, or who is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise, against any liability asserted against or incurred by the
individual in that capacity or arising from the individual's status as a
director, officer, employee or agent, whether or not the corporation would have
power to indemnify the individual against the same liability under this Article.
5
<PAGE> 6
SECTION 8.08. OTHER DEFINITIONS.
For purposes of this Article, serving an employee benefit plan at the
request of the corporation shall include any service as a director, officer or
employee of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by
such director, officer or employee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
participants, or beneficiaries. A person who acted in good faith and in a manner
he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the participants and
beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a
manner "not opposed to the best interest of the corporation" referred to in this
Article.
For purposes of this Article, "party" includes any individual who is or
was a plaintiff, defendant or respondent in any action, suit or proceeding.
For purposes of this Article, "official capacity," when used with respect
to a director, shall mean the office of director of the corporation; and when
used with respect to an individual other than a director, shall mean the office
in the corporation held by the officer or the employment or agency relationship
undertaking by the employee or agent on behalf of the corporation. "Official
capacity" does not include service for any other foreign or domestic corporation
or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other
enterprise, whether for profit or not, except as set forth in Section 1 of this
Article.
SECTION 8.09. BUSINESS EXPENSES. Any payments made to any indemnified
party under this Article under any other right of indemnification shall be
deemed to be an ordinary and necessary business expense of the corporation, and
payment thereof shall not subject any person responsible for the payment, or the
board of directors, to any action for corporate waste or to any similar action.

respectively, contained in the Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (SEC
No. 333-48191), filed with the SEC on March 18, 1998.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement unless the
information required by (i) and (ii) is contained in periodic reports
filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act that are incorporated by reference into this registration
statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement; and
7
<PAGE> 8
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement.
(2)That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
(3)To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4)That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in
the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant 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 whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in such Act will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

available under the Plan to Participants, the Board shall have the right to
proportionately and appropriately adjust equitably any or all of (i) the maximum
number and kind of shares of Stock in respect of which Options may be granted
under the Plan to Participants, (ii) the number and kind of shares of Stock
subject to outstanding Options held by Participants, and (iii) the exercise
price with respect to any Options held by Participants, without changing the
aggregate purchase price as to which such Options remain exercisable, provided
that no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section if such adjustment
would cause the Plan to fail to comply with Section 422 of the Code with regard
to any Incentive Stock Options granted hereunder. No fractional Shares shall be
issued on account of any such adjustment.
(c) Any adjustments under this Section will be made by the Board, whose
determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent
thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
SECTION 6. NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS
The Board may, from time to time, grant Non-Qualified Stock Options to
Participants upon such terms and conditions as the Board may determine.
Non-Qualified Stock Options granted under this Plan are subject to the following
terms and conditions:
(a) PRICE. The purchase price per share of Stock deliverable upon the
exercise of each Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be determined by the Board on
the date the option is granted. Such purchase price shall not be less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of
grant. Shares may be purchased only upon full payment of the purchase price.
Payment of the purchase price may be made, in whole or in part, through the
surrender of shares of the Stock at the Fair Market Value of such shares on the
date of surrender or through a "cashless exercise" involving a stock brokerage
firm.
(b) TERMS OF OPTIONS. The term during which each Non-Qualified Stock
Option may be exercised shall be determined by the Board, but in no event shall
a Non-Qualified Stock Option be exercisable in whole or in part more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant. Except as provided herein, no Non-Qualified
Stock Option granted under this Plan is transferable except by will or the laws
of descent and distribution. The Board shall have discretionary authority to
permit the transfer of any Non-Qualified Stock Option to members of a
Participant's immediate family, including trusts for the benefit of such family
members and partnerships in which such family members are the only partners;
provided, however, that a transferred Non-Qualified Stock Option may be
exercised by the transferee on any date only to the extent that the Participant
would have been entitled to exercise the Non-Qualified Stock Option on such date
had the Non-Qualified Stock Option not been transferred. Any transferred
Non-Qualified Stock Option shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of
the Participant's stock option agreement.
(c) TERMINATION OF SERVICE. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, upon
the termination of a Participant's employment (or, in the case of a Director,
service as a member of the Board) for any reason other than Disability, death or
Termination for Cause, the Participant's Non-Qualified Stock Options shall be
exercisable only as
3
<PAGE> 5
to those shares which were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the
date of termination and only for a period of one (1) year following termination.
Notwithstanding any provision set forth herein nor contained in any Agreement
relating to the award of an Option, in the event of Termination for Cause, all
rights under the Participant's Non-Qualified Stock Options shall expire upon
termination. In the event of death or termination as a result of Disability of
any Participant, all Non-Qualified Stock Options held by the Participant,
whether or not exercisable at such time, shall be exercisable by the Participant
or his legal representatives or beneficiaries of the Participant for two (2)
years or such longer period as determined by the Board following the date of the
Participant's death or termination of service due to Disability, provided that
in no event shall the period extend beyond the expiration of the Non-Qualified
Stock Option term.
SECTION 7. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS
The Board may, from time to time, grant Incentive Stock Options to
eligible employees. Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall
be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) PRICE. The purchase price per share of Stock deliverable upon the
exercise of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant.
However, if a Participant owns (or, under Section 422(d) of the Code, is deemed
to own) stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined
voting power of all classes of Stock, the purchase price per share of Stock
deliverable upon the exercise of each Incentive Stock Option shall not be less
than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the
date of grant. Shares may be purchased only upon payment of the full purchase
price. Payment of the purchase price may be made, in whole or in part, through
the surrender of shares of the Stock at the Fair Market Value of such shares on
the date of surrender or through a "cashless exercise" involving a stock
brokerage firm.
(b) AMOUNTS OF OPTIONS. Incentive Stock Options may be granted to any
eligible employee in such amounts as determined by the Board. In the case of an
option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, the aggregate Fair
Market Value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of the Stock with
respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted are exercisable for the first
time by the Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. The
provisions of this Section 7(b) shall be construed and applied in accordance
with Section 422(d) of the Code and the regulations, if any, promulgated
thereunder. To the extent an award is in excess of such limit, it shall be
deemed a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Board shall have discretion to
redesignate options granted as Incentive Stock Options as Non-Qualified Stock
Options.
(c) TERMS OF OPTIONS. The term during which each Incentive Stock Option
may be exercised shall be determined by the Board, but in no event shall an
Incentive Stock Option be exercisable in whole or in part more than ten (10)
years from the date of grant. If at the time an Incentive Stock Option is
granted to an employee, the employee owns Stock representing more than ten
percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of the Corporation (or, under
Section 422(d) of the Code, is deemed to own Stock representing more than ten
percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all such classes of Stock,
by reason of the ownership of such classes of Stock, directly or indirectly, by
or for any brother, sister, spouse, ancestor or lineal descendent of such
employee, or by or for any corporation, partnership, estate or trust of which
such employee is a shareholder, partner or beneficiary), the Incentive Stock
Option granted to such employee shall not be exercisable after the expiration of
five (5) years from the date of grant. No Incentive Stock Option granted under
this Plan is transferable except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution.
(d) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Upon the termination of a Participant's
service for any reason other than Disability, death or Termination for Cause,
the Participant's Incentive Stock Options which are then exercisable at the date
of termination may only be exercised by the Participant for a period of three
(3) months following termination, after which time they shall be void.
Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein nor contained in any Agreement
relating to an award of an Option, in the event of Termination for Cause, all
rights under the Participant's Incentive Stock Options shall expire immediately
upon termination.
4
<PAGE> 6
Unless otherwise determined by the Board, in the event of death or
termination of service as a result of the Disability of any Participant, all
Incentive Stock Options held by such Participant, whether or not exercisable at
such time, shall be exercisable by the Participant or the Participant's legal
representatives or the beneficiaries of the Participant for one (1) year
following the date of the Participant's death or termination of employment as a
result of Disability. In no event shall the exercise period extend beyond the
expiration of the Incentive Stock Option term.
(f) COMPLIANCE WITH CODE. The options granted under this Section 7 of the
Plan are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code, but the Corporation makes no warranty as to the
qualification of any option as an incentive stock option within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code. A Participant shall notify the Board in writing in the
event that he disposes of Stock acquired upon exercise of an Incentive Stock
Option within the two-year period following the date the Incentive Stock Option
was granted or within the one-year period following the date he received Stock
upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and shall comply with any other
requirements imposed by the Corporation in order to enable the Corporation to
secure the related income tax deduction to which it will be entitled in such
event under the Code.
SECTION 8. EXTENSION
The Board may, in its sole discretion, extend the dates during which all
or any particular Option or Options granted under the Plan may be exercised;
provided, however, that no such extension shall be permitted without the
Participant's consent if it would cause Incentive Stock Options issued under the
Plan to fail to comply with Section 422 of the Code.
SECTION 9. GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO OPTIONS
(a) Each Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a writing delivered
to the Participant specifying the terms and conditions thereof and containing
such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan
as the Board considers necessary or advisable to achieve the purposes of the
Plan or comply with applicable tax and regulatory laws and accounting
principles.
(b) Each Option may be granted alone, in addition to or in relation to any
other Option. The terms of each Option need not be identical, and the Board need
not treat Participants uniformly. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan or a
particular Option, any determination with respect to an Option may be made by
the Board at the time of grant or at any time thereafter.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, in the event of
a Change in Control, all then outstanding Options shall become one hundred
percent vested and exercisable as of the effective date of the Change in
Control. If, in connection with or as a consequence of a Change in Control, the
Corporation is merged into or consolidated with another corporation, if the
Corporation becomes a subsidiary of another corporation or if the Corporation
sells or otherwise disposes of substantially all of its assets to another
corporation, then unless provisions are made in connection with such
transactions for the continuance of the Plan and/or the assumption or
substitution of then outstanding Options with new options covering the stock of
the successor corporation, or parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate
adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices, such Options shall
be canceled as of the effective date of the merger, consolidation, or sale and
the Participant shall be paid in cash an amount equal to the difference between
the Fair Market Value of the Stock subject to the Options on the effective date
of such corporate event and the exercise price of the Options. Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 9(c) or any Option agreement to the contrary, in the
event that the consummation of a Change in Control is contingent on using
pooling of interests accounting methodology, the Board may, in its discretion,
take any action necessary to preserve the use of pooling of interests
accounting.
(d) The Corporation shall be entitled to withhold (or secure payment from
the Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other
tax required by law to be withheld or paid by the Corporation with respect to
any Options exercised under this Plan, and the Corporation may defer issuance of
Stock hereunder until and
5
<PAGE> 7
unless indemnified to its satisfaction against any liability for any such tax.
The amount of such withholding or tax payment shall be determined by the Board
or its delegate and shall be payable by the Participant at such time as the
Board determines. To the extent authorized by the Board, such withholding
obligation may also be satisfied by the payment of cash by the Participant to
the Corporation, the tendering of previously acquired shares of Stock of the
Participant or the withholding, at the appropriate time, of shares of Stock
otherwise issuable to the Participant, in a number sufficient, based upon the
Fair Market Value of such Stock, to satisfy such tax withholding requirements.
The Board shall be authorized, in its sole discretion, to establish such rules
and procedures relating to any such withholding methods as it deems necessary or
appropriate, including, without limitation, rules and procedures relating to
elections by Participants who are subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the
Exchange Act.
(e) Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Board may at any time, and from
time to time, amend, modify or terminate the Plan or any outstanding Option held
by a Participant, including substituting therefor another Option of the same or
a different type or changing the date of exercise or realization, provided that
the Participant's consent to each action shall be required unless the Board
determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not
materially and adversely affect the Participant.
SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Option, and
the grant of an Option shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right
to continued employment or service on the Board. The Corporation expressly
reserves the right at any time to dismiss a Participant free from any liability
or claim under the Plan, except as expressly provided in the Plan or the
applicable Option.
(b) Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Corporation from
adopting other or additional compensation arrangements.
(c) Subject to the provisions of the applicable Option, no Participant
shall have any rights as a shareholder (including, without limitation, any
rights to receive dividends, or non cash distributions with respect to such
shares) with respect to any shares of Stock to be distributed under the Plan
until he or she becomes the holder thereof.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed in this Plan, any
provisions hereof that vary from or conflict with any applicable Federal or
State securities laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) shall
be deemed to be modified to conform to and comply with such laws.
(e) No member of the Board shall be liable for any action or determination
taken or granted in good faith with respect to this Plan nor shall any member of
the Board be liable for any agreement issued pursuant to this Plan or any grants
under it. Each member of the Board shall be indemnified by the Corporation
against any losses incurred in such administration of the Plan, unless his
action constitutes serious and willful misconduct.
(f) The Plan shall be effective on July 2, 1999 but only if, prior to such
date, the Plan is approved by the Corporation's shareholders. The Plan will be
so approved if at an annual or special meeting of shareholders held prior to
such date a quorum is present and the votes of the holders of a majority of the
securities of the Corporation present or represented by proxy and entitled to
vote on such matter shall be cast in favor of its approval.
(g) The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion
thereof at any time, provided that no amendment shall be made without
shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any applicable
tax laws or regulatory requirement.
(h) Options may not be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary
of the effective date of the Plan, but then outstanding Options may extend
beyond such date.
(i) To the extent that State laws shall not have been preempted by any
laws of the United States, the Plan shall be construed, regulated, interpreted
and administered according to the other laws of the State of Indiana.

<PAGE> 4
(b) SHARES SUBJECT TO TERMINATED AWARDS. Shares of Stock forfeited as
provided in Section 5(b) may again be issued under the Plan.
SECTION 5. RESTRICTED STOCK
Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Board may grant to any Participant
an award of Restricted Stock in respect of such number of shares of Stock, and
subject to such terms and conditions relating to forfeitability and restrictions
on delivery and transfer (whether based on performance standards, periods of
service or otherwise), as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion. The
terms of all such Restricted Stock awards shall be set forth in an Award
Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant which shall contain such
provisions, not inconsistent with this Plan, as shall be determined by the
Board.
(a) ISSUANCE OF RESTRICTED STOCK. As soon as practicable after the Date of
Grant of Restricted Stock, the Corporation shall cause to be transferred on the
books of the Corporation shares of Stock, registered on behalf of the
Participant, evidencing such Restricted Stock, but subject to forfeiture to the
Corporation retroactive to the Date of Grant if an Award Agreement delivered to
the Participant by the Corporation with respect to the Restricted Stock is not
duly executed by the Participant and timely returned to the Corporation. Unless
the Board determines otherwise, until the lapse or release of all restrictions
applicable to an award of Restricted Stock, the stock certificates representing
such Restricted Stock shall be held in custody by the Corporation or its
designee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may, in its sole
discretion, establish a trust for the purpose of holding Restricted Stock
awarded pursuant to this Plan. In the event that a trust is established, the
Corporation may elect to hold any or all shares of Stock subject to awards in
the name of the trust for the benefit of the Participant and subject to the
forfeiture conditions applicable to the award.
(b) SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Beginning on the Date of Grant of the Restricted
Stock and subject to execution of the Award Agreement as provided in Section
5(a), the Participant shall become a shareholder of the Corporation with respect
to all Stock subject to the Award Agreement and shall have all of the rights of
a shareholder, including, but not limited to, the right to vote such Stock and
the right to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such
Stock; provided, however, that any Stock distributed as a dividend or otherwise
with respect to any Restricted Stock as to which the restrictions have not yet
lapsed shall be subject to the same restrictions as such Restricted Stock and
shall be held as prescribed in Section 5(a). Cash dividends paid with respect to
Restricted Stock may, at the Board's discretion, be held by the Corporation in
escrow until such time as the Participant vests in such shares or distributed to
the Participant during the forfeiture period. The Corporation may credit a
reasonable rate of interest to such cash dividends prior to distribution.
(c) RESTRICTION ON TRANSFERABILITY. None of the Restricted Stock may be
assigned, transferred (other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution), pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of prior to lapse or release
of the restrictions applicable thereto.
(d) DELIVERY OF STOCK UPON RELEASE OF RESTRICTIONS. Upon expiration or
earlier termination of the forfeiture period without a forfeiture, and the
satisfaction of or release from any other conditions prescribed by the Board,
the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock shall lapse. As promptly as
administratively feasible thereafter, subject to the requirements of Section
6(b), the Corporation shall deliver to the Participant or, in case of the
Participant's death, to the Participant's legal representatives, one or more
stock certificates for the appropriate number of shares of Stock, free of all
such restrictions, except for any restrictions that may be imposed by law.
(e) TERMS OF RESTRICTED STOCK; FORFEITURE OF RESTRICTED STOCK. All
Restricted Stock shall be forfeited and returned to the Corporation and all
rights of the Participant with respect to such Restricted Stock shall cease and
terminate in their entirety if during the forfeiture period the employment (or,
in the case of a Director, service) of the Participant with the Corporation
and/or its subsidiaries terminates for any reason. Subject to the terms of the
Plan, the Board, in its sole discretion, shall establish the forfeiture period
for each grant of Restricted Stock, and
3
<PAGE> 5
may provide for the forfeiture period to lapse in installments. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, upon the termination of a Participant's employment (or, in the
case of a Director, service) by reason of death or Disability, all forfeiture
restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock shall immediately and fully lapse. In
addition, upon the effective date of a Change in Control, all forfeiture
restrictions imposed on outstanding Restricted Stock awards shall immediately
and fully lapse.
SECTION 6. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER. The rights and interest of a Participant
under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred other than by will or the laws
of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of a Participant, only the
Participant personally may exercise rights under the Plan.
(b) TAXES. The Corporation shall be entitled to withhold (or secure
payment from the Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any
withholding or other tax required by law to be withheld or paid by the
Corporation with respect to any Stock issuable under this Plan, or with respect
to any income recognized upon the lapse of restrictions applicable to Restricted
Stock and the Corporation may defer issuance of Stock hereunder until and unless
indemnified to its satisfaction against any liability for any such tax. The
amount of such withholding or tax payment shall be determined by the Board or
its delegate and shall be payable by the Participant at such time as the Board
determines. To the extent authorized by the Board, such withholding obligation
may be satisfied by the payment of cash by the Participant to the Corporation,
the tendering of previously acquired shares of Stock of the Participant or the
withholding, at the appropriate time, of shares of Stock otherwise issuable to
the Participant, in a number sufficient, based upon the Fair Market Value of
such Stock, to satisfy such tax withholding requirements. The Board shall be
authorized, in its sole discretion, to establish such rules and procedures
relating to any such withholding methods as it deems necessary or appropriate,
including, without limitation, rules and procedures relating to elections by
Participants who are subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange
Act.
(c) ADJUSTMENTS TO REFLECT CAPITAL CHANGES. The amount and kind of Stock
available for issuance under the Plan and subject to outstanding awards shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination
or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other change in capitalization
with a similar substantive effect upon the Plan. The Board shall have the power
and sole discretion to determine the nature and amount of the adjustment, if
any, to be made pursuant to this Section 6(c).
(d) NO RIGHT TO AWARD; NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT. No employee or other person
shall have any claim of right to be permitted to participate or be granted an
award under this Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be
construed as giving any employee any right to be retained in the employ of the
Corporation.
(e) GOVERNING LAW. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken
pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana other
than the conflict of laws provisions of such laws, and shall be construed in
accordance therewith.
(f) CAPTIONS. The captions (i.e., all Section and subsection headings)
used in the Plan are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of the Plan,
and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or affect in any way any
provisions of the Plan, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed as if
no captions had been used in the Plan.
(g) SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision in the Plan and every
Award Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement
shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then (x) such
provision shall be deemed amended to accomplish the objectives of the provision
as originally written to the fullest extent permitted by law and (y) all other
provisions of the Plan and every Award Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.
4
<PAGE> 6
(h) LEGENDS. All certificates for Stock delivered under the Plan shall be
subject to such transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan and such other
restrictions as the Board may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and
other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange
upon which the Stock is then listed and any applicable federal or state
securities law, and the Board may cause a legend or legends to be endorsed on
any such certificates making appropriate references to such restrictions.
(i) AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.
(A) AMENDMENT. Subject to applicable law and regulations, the Board shall
have complete power and authority to amend the Plan at any time it is deemed
necessary or appropriate; provided, however, that no amendment shall be made
without shareholder approval if such approval is necessary for the Corporation
to comply with an applicable tax law or regulatory requirement. No termination
or amendment of the Plan may, without the consent of the Participant to whom any
award shall theretofore have been granted under the Plan, adversely affect the
right of such individual under such award.
(B) TERMINATION. The Board shall have the right and the power to terminate
the Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated by action of the Board, the Plan
shall automatically terminate, without further action of the Board or the
Corporation's shareholders, on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. No
award shall be granted under the Plan after the termination of the Plan, but the
termination of the Plan shall not have any other effect and any award
outstanding at the time of the termination of the Plan shall continue in effect
in accordance with its terms as if the Plan has not terminated.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have been requested by PCB Holding Company, an Indiana corporation,
(the "Company") to issue a legal opinion in connection with the registration
under the Securities Act of 1933 on Form S-8 of 55,545 shares of the Company's

Management and Recognition Plan (hereinafter, collectively referred to as the

We have made such legal and factual examinations and inquiries as we
deemed advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion. In our examination,
we have assumed and have not verified (i) the genuineness of all signatures,
(ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, (iii) the
conformity to the originals of all documents supplied to us as copies, and (iv)
the accuracy and completeness of all corporate records and documents and of all
