     WHEREAS, Section 10.1 of the Plan reserves to Lanier the right to amend the
Plan by action taken by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Operation
Officer; and

     WHEREAS, in anticipation of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger among
Lanier, LW Acquisition Corp. and Ricoh Company Ltd. (the "Merger Agreement"),
Lanier desires to amend the Plan to cease all further investment in Lanier Stock
(as defined in the Plan) including contributions of Matching Contributions and
Profit Sharing Matching Contributions (both as defined in the Plan) and to

Merger Agreement:

          the Plan Sponsor, LW Acquisition Corp. and Ricoh Company Ltd. (the
          "Merger Agreement"), no further investments shall be made in Lanier
          Stock (except those purchases that were initiated prior to 4:00 p.m.
          on the date of the Merger Agreement).

     2.   By deleting Section 5.9(b) in its entirety.

     Except as herein amended, the provisions of the Plan shall remain in full
     force and effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the amendment has been executed this 28th day of
