PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Eastman Kodak Company (the Company or Kodak) is engaged primarily in
developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer and commercial imaging
products. Kodak's sales, earnings and identifiable assets by industry
segment for the past three years are shown in Segment Information on page 35.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONSUMER IMAGING SEGMENT
Sales of the Consumer Imaging segment, including intersegment sales, for the
past three years were:
(in millions) 1996 1995 1994
$7,659 $6,830 $5,919
The products of the Consumer Imaging segment are used for capturing,
recording or displaying a consumer originated image. For example,
traditional amateur photography requires, at a minimum, a camera, film and
photofinishing. Photofinishing requires equipment and supplies, including
chemicals and paper for prints.
Kodak manufactures and markets various components of imaging systems. For
amateur photography, Kodak supplies films, photographic papers, processing
services, photographic chemicals, cameras and projectors. Recent imaging
products developed by Kodak include new generations of films, cameras
(including digital), photographic papers and one-time-use cameras. In early
1996, the Company announced its line-up of Advanced Photo System products
encompassing new cameras, films and photofinishing. The Advanced Photo
System is a new amateur film format which delivers a variety of new consumer
features such as drop-in loading, multiple print size options, index prints,
and negatives returned in the cartridge.
Marketing and Competition. Kodak's consumer imaging products and services
are distributed worldwide through a variety of channels. Individual
products are often used in substantial quantities in more than one market.
Most sales of the Consumer Imaging segment are made through retailers.
Independent retail outlets selling Kodak amateur products total many
thousands. In a few areas abroad, Kodak products are marketed by
independent national distributors.
Kodak's advertising programs actively promote its products and services in
its various markets, and its principal trademarks, trade dress and corporate
symbol are widely used and recognized.
Kodak's consumer imaging products and services compete with similar products
and services of others. Competition in traditional imaging markets is
strong throughout the world. Many large and small companies offer similar
products and services that compete with Kodak's business. Kodak's products
are continually improved to meet the changing needs and preferences of its
customers.
Raw Materials. The raw materials used by the Consumer Imaging segment are
many and varied and generally available. Silver is one of the essential
materials in photographic film and paper manufacturing. Digital electronics
are becoming more prevalent in product offerings.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 3
COMMERCIAL IMAGING SEGMENT
Sales of the Commercial Imaging segment for the past three years were:
(in millions) 1996 1995 1994
$8,340 $8,184 $7,646
The Commercial Imaging segment consists of businesses that serve the imaging
and information needs of commercial customers. Products in this segment are
used to capture, store, process and display images and information in a
variety of forms.
Kodak products for the Commercial Imaging segment include films,
photographic papers, photographic plates, chemicals, processing equipment
and audiovisual equipment, as well as copiers, graphic arts films, microfilm
products, applications software, printers and other business equipment,
supplies and service agreements to support these products. These products
serve professional photofinishers, professional photographers, customers in
the health care industry, and customers in motion picture, television,
commercial printing and publishing, office automation, banking, insurance
and government markets. Recently introduced commercial imaging products
include digital and applied imaging products which capture, store and print
images in an electronic format.
On December 31, 1996, the Company and Danka Business Systems PLC (Danka)
entered into an agreement for Danka to acquire the sales, marketing and
equipment service operations of the Company's copier business as well as the
Company's facilities management business known as Kodak Imaging Services.
In connection with this agreement, the Company will supply high-volume
copiers and printers to Danka.
Marketing and Competition. Kodak's commercial imaging products and services
are distributed through a variety of channels. The Company also sells and
leases business equipment directly to users.
Kodak's commercial imaging products and services compete with similar
products and services of other small and large companies. Strong
competition exists throughout the world in these markets. Kodak's products
are continually improved to meet the changing needs and preferences of its
customers.
Raw Materials. The raw materials used by the Commercial Imaging segment are
many and varied and generally available. Silver is one of the essential
materials in photographic film and paper manufacturing. Electronic
components represent a significant portion of the cost of the materials used
in the manufacture of business equipment.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - HEALTH BUSINESSES
In 1994, the Company divested the following non-imaging health businesses
for aggregate gross proceeds of $7,858 million: the pharmaceutical and
consumer health businesses of Sterling Winthrop Inc., the household products
and do-it-yourself products businesses of L&F Products and the Clinical
Diagnostics Division. The results of these businesses were reported as
discontinued operations in 1994. Sales of products of these discontinued
health businesses for the year ended December 31, 1994 were $3,175 million.
In 1996, the Company substantially completed negotiations with buyers and
filed tax returns associated with the sale of the non-imaging health
businesses. As a result of these actions and a further assessment of the
liabilities recorded at the time of the sale, the Company recognized a $277
million after-tax benefit in discontinued operations in 1996.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 4
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Through the years, Kodak has engaged in extensive and productive efforts in
research and development. In 1996, $1,028 million (1995 - $935 million; 1994 -
$859 million) was expended for research and development for continuing
operations. Research and development groups are located principally in the
United States in Rochester, New York. Outside the U.S., research and
development groups are located principally in Australia, England, France,
Japan and Germany. These groups, in close cooperation with manufacturing
units and marketing organizations, are constantly developing new products and
applications to serve both existing and new markets.
It has been Kodak's general practice to protect its investment in research
and development and its freedom to use its inventions by obtaining patents
where feasible. The ownership of these patents contributes to Kodak's
ability to use its inventions but at the same time is accompanied by patent
licensing. While in the aggregate Kodak's patents are considered to be of
material importance in the operation of its business, the Company does not
consider that the patents relating to any single product or process are of
material significance when judged from the standpoint of its total business.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Kodak is subject to various laws and governmental regulations concerning
environmental matters. Some of the U.S. federal environmental legislation
having an impact on Kodak includes the Toxic Substances Control Act, the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean Air Act, and the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (the
Superfund law).
It is the policy of Eastman Kodak Company to carry out its business
activities in a manner consistent with sound health, safety and environmental
management practices, and to comply with applicable health, safety and
environmental laws and regulations. Kodak continues to engage in a program
for environmental protection and control.
Environmental protection is further discussed in Item 3, Legal Proceedings,
on page 5, and in the Notes to Financial Statements. Refer to Note 1,
Significant Accounting Policies, Environmental Costs, on page 19, and Note
10, Commitments and Contingencies, on page 23.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EMPLOYMENT
At the end of 1996, the Company employed 94,800 people, of whom 53,400 were
employed in the U.S.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Consumer Imaging segment of Kodak's business in the United States is
centered in Rochester, New York, where photographic goods are manufactured.
Another manufacturing facility near Windsor, Colorado, also produces
sensitized photographic goods. Regional distribution centers are located in
various places within the United States.
Consumer imaging manufacturing facilities outside the United States are
located in Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Mexico and England. Kodak
maintains marketing and distribution facilities in many parts of the world.
The Company also owns processing laboratories in numerous locations
worldwide.
Products in the Commercial Imaging segment are manufactured primarily in
Rochester, New York and Windsor, Colorado. Manufacturing facilities outside
the United States are located in Germany, Mexico, England and Ireland.
The Company owns or leases administrative, manufacturing, marketing and
processing facilities in various parts of the world. The leases are for
various periods and are generally renewable.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In April 1987, the Company was sued in federal district court in San
Francisco by a number of independent service organizations who alleged
violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act and of various state
statutes in the sale by the Company of repair parts for its copier and
micrographics equipment (Image Technical Service, Inc. (ITS), et al v.
Eastman Kodak Company). The complaint sought unspecified compensatory and
punitive damages. Trial began on June 19, 1995 and concluded on September
18, 1995 with a jury verdict for plaintiffs of $23,948,300, before trebling.
The Company's appeal of the jury's verdict was argued in the 9th Circuit
Court of Appeals on September 19, 1996, and a decision is awaited. The
Company intends to continue to vigorously defend the ITS case.
Three cases that raise essentially the same antitrust issues as ITS are
pending (Nationwide, et al v. Eastman Kodak Company, filed March 10, 1995,
A-1 Copy Center, et al v. Eastman Kodak Company, filed December 13, 1993, and
Broward Microfilm, Inc. v. Eastman Kodak Company, filed February 27, 1996).
The Nationwide and A-1 cases are pending in federal district court in San
Francisco, while Broward Microfilm is pending in federal district court in
Miami. A-1 is a consolidated class action, while Broward Microfilm purports
to be a national class action. The complaints in all three cases seek
unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. As is the case in ITS, the
Company is defending these matters vigorously.
As a participant in the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA) Section 8 (e) Compliance Audit Program, the
Company agreed to audit its files for materials which under current EPA
guidelines would be subject to notification under Section 8 (e) of TSCA and
to pay stipulated penalties for each report submitted under this program.
The Company's participation in the Program concluded in the fourth quarter,
with the payment by the Company of a civil penalty of $750,000.
The Company has been designated as a potentially responsible party (PRP)
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act of 1980, as amended (the Superfund law), or under similar state laws, for
environmental assessment and cleanup costs as the result of the Company's
alleged arrangements for disposal of hazardous substances at approximately
twenty Superfund sites. With respect to each of these sites, the Company's
actual or potential allocated share of responsibility is small. Furthermore,
numerous other PRPs have similarly been designated at these sites and,
although the law imposes joint and several liability on PRPs, as a practical
matter, costs are shared with other PRPs. Settlements and costs paid by the
Company in Superfund matters to date have not been material. Future costs
are not expected to be material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

1996 COMPARED WITH 1995
Worldwide sales in 1996 were 7% higher than in 1995, primarily due to higher
unit volumes. Currency changes against the dollar unfavorably affected sales
by $243 million in 1996 compared with 1995.
Consumer Imaging segment sales for the year were up 12%, primarily due to
higher unit volumes partially offset by lower effective selling prices and
unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes. Sales increased both
inside and outside the U.S. Strong color film and paper volumes,
photofinishing increases in Qualex and sales of Advantix products led the
gains.
Commercial Imaging segment sales for the year were up 2%, primarily due to
higher unit volumes partially offset by unfavorable effects of foreign
currency rate changes and lower effective selling prices. Sales increased
outside the U.S., but were level in the U.S. Declines in Office Imaging
partially offset strong sales gains by Entertainment Imaging and continued
growth in Business Imaging Systems and Digital and Applied Imaging.
Earnings from operations decreased 5%; however, excluding restructuring costs
of $358 million, earnings from operations increased 13%, as the benefits of
higher unit volumes and manufacturing productivity were somewhat offset by
lower effective selling prices and higher advertising expenditures.
Earnings from operations in the Consumer Imaging segment decreased 9%;
however, excluding restructuring costs of $183 million, earnings from
operations increased 6%, as the benefits of higher unit volumes and
manufacturing productivity were partially offset by lower effective selling
prices and higher advertising expenditures.
Earnings from operations in the Commercial Imaging segment increased 2%;
however, excluding restructuring costs of $175 million, earnings from
operations increased 28%, as the benefits of manufacturing productivity and
higher unit volumes were somewhat offset by lower effective selling prices,
higher research and development expenditures, and unfavorable effects of
foreign currency rate changes.
Research and development expenditures were $1,028 million in 1996 and $935
million in 1995. Goodwill charges were $66 million in 1996 and $109 million
in 1995. The 1995 figure includes write-offs of intangible assets of $54
million, principally associated with the Health Imaging business.
Advertising and sales promotion expenses totaled $1,026 million in 1996 and
$840 million in 1995. Other marketing and administrative expenses totaled
$3,384 million in 1996 and $3,318 million in 1995.
Earnings from equity interests and other revenues decreased 5%, primarily due
to lower income from equity interests. Excluding the $387 million pre-tax
loss on the sale of the Office Imaging business from 1996, other costs
decreased 54%, mostly due to lower foreign exchange losses.
The effective tax rates were 34% in 1996, excluding restructuring costs and
the sale of the Office Imaging business, and 35% in 1995. The lower
effective tax rate in 1996 principally results from the utilization of
certain foreign tax loss carryforwards.
1995 COMPARED WITH 1994
Worldwide 1995 sales from continuing operations increased 10% compared with
1994, primarily due to higher unit volumes. Excluding sales of the Company's
Qualex subsidiary, acquired in August 1994, sales increased 8%, primarily due
to higher unit volumes and the favorable effects of foreign currency rate
changes. Currency changes against the dollar favorably affected sales by
$453 million in 1995 compared with 1994.
Sales for the Consumer Imaging segment increased significantly over 1994.
Sales to customers in the U.S. increased substantially over 1994 due to
higher volumes and the inclusion of Qualex revenues, whose sales are included
in the consolidated totals from August 1994. Prior to August 1994, Qualex's
results were recorded using the equity method of accounting. Sales to
customers in the U.S., excluding Qualex's sales, increased slightly. Sales
to customers outside the U.S. increased significantly from 1994, as good
volume gains and the favorable effects of foreign currency rate changes were
only partially offset by lower effective selling prices. Worldwide volume
increases were led by color papers and films and one-time-use cameras.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 10
Commercial Imaging sales showed a moderate sales increase over 1994. Sales
to customers in the U.S. increased 3%, as volume increases were slightly
offset by lower effective selling prices. Sales to customers outside the
U.S. increased significantly from 1994, as good volume gains and the
favorable effects of foreign currency rate changes were slightly offset by
lower effective selling prices. Entertainment Imaging and Digital and
Applied Imaging led the worldwide sales increases.
Earnings from operations increased 48% from 1994. Excluding 1994
restructuring costs of $340 million, earnings from operations increased 18%.
Consumer Imaging earnings from operations increased 43% (17% excluding 1994
restructuring costs). Earnings benefited from increased unit volumes,
productivity gains and the favorable effects of foreign currency rate
changes, but were adversely affected by cost escalation, higher levels of
marketing and administrative activity and lower effective selling prices.
Commercial Imaging earnings from operations increased 59% (18% excluding 1994
restructuring costs). Earnings benefited from increased unit volumes,
productivity gains and the favorable effects of foreign currency rate
changes, but were adversely affected by cost escalation, lower effective
selling prices, and $54 million of intangible asset write-offs principally
associated with the Health Imaging business.
Research and development expenditures were $935 million in 1995 and $859
million in 1994. Goodwill charges were $109 million in 1995 and $67 million
in 1994. The increase was attributed to intangible asset write-offs,
principally associated with the Health Imaging business, and the inclusion of
a full year of Qualex goodwill amortization. Advertising and sales promotion
expenses totaled $840 million in 1995 and $744 million in 1994. Other
marketing and administrative expenses totaled $3,318 million in 1995 and
$2,967 million in 1994. Increases in selling, general and administrative
expenses in 1995 resulted from the unfavorable effects of foreign currency
rate changes, higher activity levels and the inclusion of a full year of
Qualex activity.
Earnings from equity interests and other revenues were $289 million in 1995
compared with $130 million in 1994. The increase in 1995 was primarily due
to higher interest income and gains from the sales of capital assets.
Interest expense of $78 million in 1995 decreased from $142 million in 1994
due to lower debt levels. Other costs of $210 million in 1995 are
essentially level with 1994 after excluding $110 million of 1994 pre-tax
charges associated with the extinguishment of certain financial instruments.
The effective tax rates were 35% in 1995 and 39% in 1994, excluding
restructuring costs. The lower effective tax rate in 1995 principally
results from the utilization of certain foreign tax loss carryforwards.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the 1996 second quarter, Kodak concluded a $1 billion share repurchase
program, announced in October 1995, and initiated an additional $2 billion
repurchase program which is expected to extend over the next two to three
years. During 1996, $700 million of shares were purchased to complete the
first program, and $623 million of shares have been purchased against the
second program.
Cash flow from operations in 1996 was $2,484 million, primarily due to
earnings from continuing operations of $1,011 million which included non-cash
expenses for depreciation and amortization of $903 million. Net cash outflow
from investing activities was $636 million in 1996, due to capital
expenditures of $1,341 million, offset by proceeds of $688 million from the
sale of the Office Imaging business. Net cash outflow from financing
activities in 1996 of $1,833 million was primarily due to $1,323 million of
stock repurchases and $539 million of dividend payments.

<PAGE> 11
Total cash dividends (paid on a quarterly basis) of approximately $539 million
($1.60 per share), $547 million ($1.60 per share) and $537 million ($1.60 per
share) were declared in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. On January 15,
1997, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.44 per share,
representing an increase of $.04 per share, payable April 1 to shareholders
of record, March 3, 1997.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at year-end 1996 were $1,796
million, a $15 million decrease from the year-end 1995 total of $1,811
million. Net working capital at year-end 1996 decreased to $1,548 million
from $2,666 million at year-end 1995. The net change was caused primarily by
increases in short-term payables associated with the 1996 restructuring
program and sale of the Office Imaging business, as well as decreases in
accounts receivable due in part to the sale of the Office Imaging business.
Total short-term and long-term borrowings were $1,100 million at year-end 1996
and $1,251 million at year-end 1995. The Company has access to a $3.5 billion
revolving credit facility expiring in November 2001. The Company also has a
shelf registration statement for debt securities with an available balance of
$2.2 billion.
Capital additions were $599 million and $436 million for the Consumer Imaging
segment in 1996 and 1995, respectively, and $742 million and $598 million for
the Commercial Imaging segment.
OTHER
The after-tax restructuring charge of $256 million resulted from a plan
developed with the primary objective of dealing with infrastructure and
operational inefficiencies and redundancies around the world, including
actions required as a result of the sale of the Office Imaging business as
well as rationalization of the Company's photofinishing operations outside
the U.S. The plan will result in the separation of approximately 3,900
people, principally outside the U.S., and is expected to be largely completed
in the next twelve months. Approximately two-thirds of the charge relates to
separation payments and one-third is for business exits and facility
closures.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management is responsible for the preparation and integrity of the
consolidated financial statements and related notes which appear on pages 13
through 36. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and include certain amounts that are
based on management's best estimates and judgments.
The Company's accounting systems include extensive internal controls
designed to provide reasonable assurance of the reliability of its financial
records and the proper safeguarding and use of its assets. Such controls are
based on established policies and procedures, are implemented by trained,
skilled personnel with an appropriate segregation of duties, and are
monitored through a comprehensive internal audit program. The Company's
policies and procedures prescribe that the Company and all employees are to
maintain the highest ethical standards and that its business practices
throughout the world are to be conducted in a manner which is above reproach.
The consolidated financial statements have been audited by Price Waterhouse
LLP, independent accountants, who were responsible for conducting their
audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Their
resulting report is shown below.
The Board of Directors exercises its responsibility for these financial
statements through its Audit Committee, which consists entirely of
non-management Board members. The independent accountants and internal
auditors have full and free access to the Audit Committee. The Audit
Committee meets periodically with the independent accountants and the
Director of Corporate Auditing, both privately and with management present,
to discuss accounting, auditing and financial reporting matters.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Eastman Kodak Company
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements listed in
the index appearing under Item 14(a)(1) and (2) on page 38 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Eastman Kodak Company and subsidiary companies at December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

Eastman Kodak Company and Subsidiary Companies
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
COMPANY OPERATIONS
Eastman Kodak Company (the Company or Kodak) is engaged primarily in
developing, manufacturing, and marketing consumer and commercial imaging
products. The Company's products are manufactured in a number of countries
in North and South America, Europe, Australia and Asia. The Company's
products are marketed and sold in many countries throughout the world.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eastman Kodak
Company and its majority owned subsidiary companies. Intercompany
transactions are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of
the earnings of subsidiaries applicable to minority interests.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at year end and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain significant
estimates are disclosed throughout this report.
FOREIGN CURRENCY
For most subsidiaries and branches outside the U.S., the local currency is
the functional currency and translation adjustments are accumulated in a
separate component of shareholders' equity.
For subsidiaries and branches that operate in U.S. dollars or whose economic
environment is highly inflationary, the U.S. dollar is the functional
currency and gains and losses that result from translation are included in
earnings. The effect from foreign currency translation was a loss of $4
million in 1996, a gain of $14 million in 1995 and a loss of $7 million in
1994.
The Company hedges certain foreign currency transactions and firm foreign
currency commitments by entering into forward exchange contracts. Gains and
losses associated with currency rate changes on forward contracts hedging
foreign currency transactions are recorded currently in earnings. The
effects from foreign currency transactions, including related hedging
activities, were losses of $37 million in 1996, $76 million in 1995 and $46
million in 1994. Gains and losses related to hedges of firm commitments are
deferred and recognized in earnings or as adjustments of carrying amounts
when the transaction occurs.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or
less at date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND NONCURRENT INVESTMENTS
Investments included in marketable securities of $18 million and $42 million
and in long-term receivables and other noncurrent assets of $46 million and
$60 million at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, are considered held
to maturity. Investments included in marketable securities of $1 million and
$5 million and in long-term receivables and other noncurrent assets of $59
million and $55 million at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, are
considered available for sale. The maturities of long-term receivables range
from 1998 to 2004.
Proceeds from the sale of securities were $59 million in 1996 and $48 million
in 1995. No gain or loss was realized from the sale of these securities in
1996 or 1995. Specific identification was used to determine the cost of
securities sold.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at cost, which is not in excess of market. The cost
of most inventories in the U.S. is determined by the "last-in, first-out"
(LIFO) method. The cost of other inventories is determined by the "first-in,
first-out" (FIFO) or average cost method.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 19
PROPERTIES
Properties are recorded at cost reduced by accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation expense is provided based on historical cost and estimated
useful lives ranging from approximately 5 years to 50 years for buildings and
building equipment and 3 years to 20 years for machinery and equipment. The
Company generally uses the straight-line method for calculating the provision
for depreciation. The Company regularly assesses all of its long-lived
assets for impairment, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The impact of adopting SFAS
No. 121 in 1996 was not material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
GOODWILL
Goodwill is charged to earnings on a straight-line basis over the period
estimated to be benefited, not exceeding fifteen years for continuing
operations. The carrying value of goodwill is assessed periodically based on
the expected future cash flows of the asset grouping associated with the
goodwill.
REVENUE
Revenue is recognized from the sale of film, paper, supplies and equipment
(including sales-type leases for equipment) when the product is shipped; from
maintenance and service contracts over the contractual period, or as the
services are performed; from rentals under operating leases in the month in
which they are earned; and from financing transactions at level rates of
return over the term of the lease or receivable.
ADVERTISING
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in "selling, general
and administrative expenses." Advertising expenses amounted to
$1,026 million, $840 million and $744 million in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS
Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or
capitalized, as appropriate. Remediation costs that relate to an existing
condition caused by past operations are accrued when it is probable that
these costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense is based on reported earnings before income taxes.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between the
amounts of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes
and such amounts recognized for tax purposes.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share, where such calculation is not anti-dilutive, is computed
on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications of 1995 and 1994 financial statement and related
footnote amounts have been made to conform with the 1996 presentation.

<PAGE> 20
NOTE 2
SALE OF ASSETS
On December 31, 1996, Danka Business Systems PLC (Danka) and Kodak entered
into an agreement for Danka to acquire the sales, marketing and equipment
service operations of Kodak's Office Imaging business, as well as Kodak's
facilities management business known as Kodak Imaging Services. In
connection with this agreement, Kodak will supply high-volume copiers and
printers to Danka. Danka paid Kodak $688 million in cash in exchange for
certain assets and the assumption of certain operating liabilities. The book
value of net assets sold was $802 million. The Company recorded amounts for
employee separation payments, contract termination payments, transaction
costs and other significant items. As a result of this transaction, the
Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $387 million in other costs. The
after-tax loss was $252 million.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 3
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In 1994, the Company sold the pharmaceutical and consumer health businesses
of Sterling Winthrop Inc., the household products and do-it-yourself products
businesses of L&F Products and the Clinical Diagnostics Division. The Company
received $7,858 million in proceeds from the sale of these businesses. The
results of these businesses were reported as discontinued operations in 1994.
Summarized results of these businesses, including allocations of interest
expense, in 1994 included sales of $3,175 million, a loss from the
measurement date to the disposal date of $77 million ($86 million pre-tax), a
gain on the sale of businesses of $1,933 million before income taxes of
$1,506 million and an after-tax loss prior to measurement date of $81 million
($84 million pre-tax).
In computing the net gain from discontinued operations, the Company recorded
amounts for environmental exposures, product liabilities, buyer
indemnifications, purchase price adjustments, taxes and other significant
items based on the best estimates available at the time the transactions
occurred. The Company has substantially completed negotiations with buyers
and filed tax returns associated with the sale of the non-imaging health
businesses. As a result of these actions and a further assessment of the
liabilities recorded at the time of the sale, the Company recognized a $277
million after-tax benefit in discontinued operations in 1996, the primary
component of which is income and other taxes. While the remaining balances
included in these reserves are believed to be appropriate based on
management's current judgments, changes could occur as audits and other
activities related to these transactions are completed.

The Company has a $3,500 million unused revolving credit facility established
in 1996 and expiring in November 2001 which is available to support the
Company's commercial paper program and for general corporate purposes. If
unused, it has a commitment fee of $1.9 million per year. Interest on amounts
borrowed under this facility is calculated at rates based on spreads above
certain reference rates. The Company also has a shelf registration statement

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Expenditures for pollution prevention and waste treatment for continuing
operations at various manufacturing facilities were as follows:
1996 1995 1994
(in millions)
Recurring costs for managing
hazardous substances and
pollution $ 76 $ 72 $ 83
Capital expenditures to limit
or monitor hazardous substances
and pollutants 37 31 36

---- ---- ----
Total $116 $106 $122
==== ==== ====
At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company's accrued liabilities for
environmental remediation costs amounted to $106 million and $114 million,
respectively.
The Company expects these recurring and remediation costs and capital
expenditures to increase in the future. It is not expected that these costs
will have an impact materially different from 1996's environmental
expenditures on the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash
flows or competitive position.
In October 1994, the Company, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and
the U.S. Department of Justice announced the settlement of a civil complaint
alleging noncompliance by the Company with federal environmental regulations
at the Company's Kodak Park manufacturing site in Rochester, New York. The
Company paid a penalty of $5 million. A Consent Decree was signed under
which the Company is subject to a Compliance Schedule by which the Company
will improve its waste characterization procedures, upgrade one of its
incinerators, and evaluate and upgrade its industrial sewer system. The
total expenditures required to complete this program are currently estimated
to be approximately $70 million over the next seven years. These
expenditures are capital in nature.
The Company has been designated as a potentially responsible party (PRP)
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act of 1980, as amended (the Superfund law), or under similar state laws, for
environmental assessment and cleanup costs as the result of the Company's
alleged arrangements for disposal of hazardous substances at approximately
twenty Superfund sites. With respect to each of these sites, the Company's
actual or potential allocated share of responsibility is small. Furthermore,
numerous other PRPs have similarly been designated at these sites and,
although the law imposes joint and several liability on PRPs, as a practical
matter, costs are shared with other PRPs. Settlements and costs paid by the
Company in Superfund matters to date have not been material. Future costs
are also not expected to be material to the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
In addition to the foregoing environmental actions, the Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (RCRA) Facility Assessment (RFA) pertaining to the Kodak
Park site in Rochester, N.Y. is nearly complete and the Company has completed
a broad-based assessment of the site in response to the RFA. While future
expenditures associated with any remediation activities could be significant,
the Company is currently in the process of completing the RCRA Facility
Investigation (RFI). Upon completion of the RFI, the Company expects to have
developed estimates of the required remediation costs.
The Clean Air Act Amendments were enacted in 1990. Expenditures to comply
with the Clean Air Act implementing regulations issued to date have not been
material and have been primarily capital in nature. Future capital
expenditures cannot be reasonably estimated at the present time, as certain
of the regulations of this Act have not been issued.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 24
The Company has retained certain obligations for environmental remediation
matters related to the non-imaging health businesses sold in 1994. Actions
to fulfill these obligations are not expected to be completed in the near
term and costs related to the obligations are included in remediation
accruals recorded at December 31, 1996.
The Company has entered into agreements with several companies to provide the
Company with products and services to be used in its normal operations. The
minimum payments for these agreements are approximately $94 million in 1997,
$88 million in 1998, $79 million in 1999, $62 million in 2000, $12 million in
2001 and $12 million in 2002 and thereafter.
The Company has also guaranteed debt and other obligations under agreements
with certain affiliated companies and customers. At December 31, 1996, these
guarantees totaled approximately $143 million. The Company does not expect
that these guarantees will have a material impact on the Company's future
financial position or results of operations.
The Company has issued letters of credit in lieu of making security deposits
to insure the payment of possible Workers' Compensation claims.
Rental expense, net of minor sublease income, amounted to $242 million in
1996 and $189 million in both 1995 and 1994. The approximate amounts of
noncancelable lease commitments with terms of more than one year, principally
for the rental of real property, reduced by minor sublease income, are
$188 million in 1997, $153 million in 1998, $120 million in 1999, $92 million
in 2000, $76 million in 2001 and $103 million in 2002 and thereafter.
The Company and its subsidiary companies are involved in lawsuits, claims,
investigations and proceedings, including product liability, commercial,
environmental, and health and safety matters, which are being handled and
defended in the ordinary course of business. There are no such matters
pending that the Company and its General Counsel expect to be material in
relation to the Company's business, financial position or results of
operations.

for $31 million and $34 million of equity investments included in other
investments at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, which are reflected
at their carrying value because it is not practical to estimate fair value as
quoted market prices do not exist. The fair values for the remaining
financial instruments in the above table are based on dealer quotes and
reflect the estimated amounts the Company would pay or receive to terminate
the contracts. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents,

The Company, as a result of its global operating and financial activities, is
exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates
which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial position.
In seeking to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with such
activities, the Company manages exposure to changes in interest rates and
foreign currency exchange rates through its regular operating and financing
activities. In certain instances, the Company manages exposures to foreign
currency exchange rate changes through foreign currency forward agreements
with third parties. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for
trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged
financial instruments.
The table below summarizes by major currency the notional amounts of foreign
currency forward contracts in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are
translated at rates current at the reporting date. The "buy" amounts
represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to purchase foreign
currencies, and the "sell" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of
commitments to sell foreign currencies. Substantially all of the Company's
foreign currency forward agreements will mature during 1997.

Retained earnings of subsidiary companies outside the U.S. were approximately
$1,466 million and $1,924 million at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Retained earnings at December 31, 1996 are considered to be reinvested
indefinitely. If remitted, they would be substantially free of additional
tax. It is not practicable to determine the deferred tax liability for
temporary differences related to these retained earnings.

RESTRUCTURING COSTS
1996 Restructuring Program
In December 1996, the Company committed to implement a restructuring program
and recorded a pre-tax provision of $358 million ($256 million after-tax).
In addition, $20 million of reserves from the 1993 restructuring program will
be utilized for actions associated with the 1996 program. The principal
purpose of the program is to eliminate infrastructure and operational
inefficiencies and redundancies throughout the Company by taking actions to
separate personnel, close facilities and exit from non-strategic businesses.
A portion of the program includes the restructuring of retail and wholesale
photofinishing operations, primarily outside the U.S. Additionally, the plan
addressed certain infrastructure activities which supported the Office
Imaging business, which was sold to Danka Business Systems PLC.
This program will result in the separation of 3,900 employees worldwide at a
cost of $260 million. Approximately 1,200 of the separations are expected to
occur in the U.S. and 2,700 outside the U.S. Separations by functional area
are as follows: 2,400 administrative and marketing, 1,300 services including
photofinishing and 200 manufacturing. Most of the separations are expected
to be completed by the end of 1997. Approximately $118 million of the
restructuring costs relate to business exits and facility closures. No
significant amounts have been utilized in 1996.
1994 Restructuring Program
The Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring provision of $340 million in 1994
for severance and other termination benefits and exit costs related to the
realignment of the Company's worldwide manufacturing, marketing,
administrative and photofinishing operations. In addition, $50 million of
reserves from the 1993 restructuring program were utilized for these actions.
At December 31, 1996, substantially all of the personnel had been terminated
with approximately $60 million, $260 million, and $30 million being paid in
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. These amounts were spent substantially
according to plan. The remaining accrual balance at December 31, 1996, in
the amount of $40 million, will primarily provide for severance,
non-cancelable lease payments and business exit costs.

NOTE 14
RETIREMENT PLANS
Substantially all U.S. employees are covered by a noncontributory plan, the
Kodak Retirement Income Plan (KRIP), which is funded by Company contributions
to an irrevocable trust fund. Assets in the fund are held for the sole
benefit of retired employees. The assets of the trust fund are comprised of
corporate equity and debt securities, U.S. government securities, partnership
and joint venture investments, interests in pooled funds, and various types
of interest rate and foreign currency financial instruments.
Retirement benefits earned by employees prior to January 1, 1996, are based
on a point system. Retirement benefits earned by employees subsequent to
December 31, 1995, are based on age and years of service. The benefit
formula used to calculate the actual benefit dollars paid to an individual
once retired has not changed as a result of these new plan provisions.
The benefit obligations for KRIP include amounts for employees who retired
from Eastman Chemical Company (ECC) on or before December 31, 1993, the date
ECC was spun off from the Company. Benefit obligations of all other ECC
employees were transferred to ECC as part of the spin-off agreement. The
benefit obligation of KRIP excludes amounts for all employees (both retired
and active) of the non-imaging health businesses sold in 1994 because those
obligations were transferred to the buyers of the non-imaging health
businesses. The market value of assets of KRIP reflect the Company's
estimates of assets held for employees in continuing operations only. The
transfer of assets from the KRIP trust fund to ECC and the buyers of the
non-imaging health businesses was not completed as of December 31, 1996. The
Company anticipates the transfer of assets to ECC to be completed in 1997,
with the non-imaging health businesses to follow. The Company retained the
obligation for employees of the Office Imaging sales, marketing and equipment
service functions and recorded a $12 million curtailment loss in 1996 as a
result of the sale of this business.
Most subsidiaries and branches operating outside the U.S. have retirement
plans covering substantially all employees. Contributions by the Company for
these plans are typically deposited under government or other fiduciary-type
arrangements. Retirement benefits are generally based on contractual
agreements that provide for benefit formulas using years of service and/or
compensation prior to retirement. The actuarial assumptions used for these
plans reflect the diverse economic environments within the various countries
in which the Company operates.
Total pension expense for all plans included the following:

</TABLE>
The annual cost of postretirement employee benefits is based on assumed
discount rates. These rates are set relative to the general level of
interest rates in the economy. As a result, significant year-to-year changes
in interest rates can cause material year-to-year changes in assumed discount
rates and employee benefit liabilities and costs based on those rates.
The Company also sponsors an unfunded plan for certain U.S. employees
(primarily executives). The benefits of this plan are obtained by applying
KRIP provisions to all compensation, including compensation currently being
deferred, and without regard to the legislated qualified plan maximums,
reduced by benefits under KRIP. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the projected
benefit obligations of this plan amounted to $197 million and $159 million,
respectively. The Company had recorded long-term liabilities at those dates
of $179 million and $143 million, respectively. Pension expense recorded in
1996, 1995 and 1994 related to this plan was $24 million, $17 million and $17
million, respectively.

NONPENSION POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company provides health care, dental and life insurance benefits to
eligible retirees and eligible survivors of retirees. In general, these
benefits are provided to U.S. retirees that are covered by the provisions of
the Company's principal pension plan. A few of the Company's subsidiaries
and branches operating outside the U.S. offer health care benefits; however,
the cost of such benefits is insignificant to the Company.
Net nonpension postretirement benefit cost includes the following:

====== ======
To estimate this obligation, health care costs were assumed to increase 8% in
1997 with the rate of increase declining to an ultimate trend of 5% in 2002.
If the health care cost trend rates were increased by one percentage point,
the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, as of December 31, 1996,
would increase by approximately $90 million while the net postretirement
benefit cost for the year then ended would increase by approximately $9
million. The discount rates utilized to measure the obligation at December
31, 1996 and 1995, were 7.5% and 7.25%, respectively. The annual costs of
employee benefits related to postretirement are based on assumed discount
rates set relative to the general level of interest rates in the economy. As
a result, significant year-to-year changes in interest rates can cause
material year-to-year changes in assumed discount rates and employee benefit
liabilities and costs based on these rates. The Company recorded a $97
million curtailment gain in 1996 as a result of the sale of the Office
Imaging business, which is included in the loss on the sale.

STOCK OPTION AND COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company's stock incentive plans consist of the 1995 Omnibus Long-Term
Compensation Plan (the 1995 Plan), the 1990 Omnibus Long-Term Compensation
Plan (the 1990 Plan) and the 1985 Stock Option Plan (the 1985 Plan). The
Plans are administered by the Executive Compensation and Development
Committee of the Board of Directors.
Under the 1995 Plan, 16 million shares of the Company's common stock may be
granted to a variety of employees between February 1, 1995 and December 31,
1999. Option prices are not less than 100 percent of the per share fair
market value on the date of grant, and the options generally expire 10 years
from the dates of grant, but may expire sooner if the optionee's employment
terminates. The 1995 Plan also provides for Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs)
to be granted, either in tandem with options or freestanding. SARs allow
optionees to receive payment equal to the difference between the Company's
stock market price on grant date and exercise date. At December 31, 1996,
346,650 freestanding SARs were outstanding at option prices ranging from
$56.31 to $83.19.
Under the 1990 Plan, 16 million shares of the Company's common stock could be
granted to key employees between February 1, 1990 and January 31, 1995.
Option prices could not be less than 50 percent of the per share fair market
value on the date of grant; however, no options below fair market value were
granted. The options generally expire 10 years from the dates of grant, but
may expire sooner if the optionee's employment terminates. The 1990 Plan
also provided that options with dividend equivalents, tandem SARs and
freestanding SARs could be granted. At December 31, 1996, 113,702 tandem
SARs and 260,931 freestanding SARs were outstanding at option prices ranging
from $31.45 to $44.50.
Under the 1985 Plan, approximately 1.7 million options, 181,860 tandem SARs
and 34,900 freestanding SARs were outstanding at December 31, 1996, at option
prices ranging from $33.79 to $39.53. The 1985 Plan terms are similar to the
1995 Plan terms.
Further information relating to options is as follows:
Shares Range of Price
Under Option Per Share
Outstanding on December 31, 1995 21,198,746 $30.25 - $69.50
Granted 3,359,338 $68.00 - $83.44
Exercised 3,410,660 $30.25 - $71.81
Terminated, Canceled or Surrendered 292,986 $31.45 - $75.69
Outstanding on December 31, 1996 20,854,438 $30.25 - $83.44
Exercisable on December 31, 1996 15,103,173 $30.25 - $69.50
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB No. 25), in accounting for employee stock
options. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock
option plans.
Pro forma net earnings and earnings per share information, as required by
SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," has been determined
as if the Company had accounted for employee stock options under SFAS No.
123's fair value method. The fair value of these options was estimated at
grant date using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions for 1996 and 1995, respectively: dividend yields
of 2.25% and 3%; volatility factors of the expected market price of the
Company's common stock of 25%; an expected option life of 7 years; and the 7
year U.S. treasury interest rate on the grant dates. For purposes of pro
forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to
expense over the options' vesting period (3 years). The Company's pro forma
information follows:
(in millions, except per share data) 1996 1995
Pro Forma Net Earnings $1,262 $1,242
Pro Forma Earnings Per Share $ 3.74 $ 3.64
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 33
This disclosure is not likely to be representative of the effects on reported
net earnings for future years, because options vest over three years and
additional awards generally are made each year.
The weighted-average fair value of options granted was $22.84 and $17.43 for
1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Company recognized compensation expense of $31 million, $70 million and
$10 million related to stock-based employee compensation awards in 1996, 1995
and 1994, respectively.

<PAGE>
<PAGE> 49
Article 4. Deferral of Compensation
For any given calendar year, a Participant may make a deferral election, in
accordance with the requirements of Article 5 below, to defer receipt of all
or any portion of his or her Deferrable Amount to be earned during such year
into his or her Accounts. Any Deferrable Amount which is so deferred shall
be credited to the Participant's Accounts in accordance with Article 6 below.
Article 5. Deferral Elections
5.1 In General
A Participant may make a deferral election to defer compensation by executing
and returning to the Administrator in accordance with this Article 5 a
deferred compensation form provided by Kodak.
5.2 Timing
A Participant who wishes to make a deferral election must irrevocably elect
to do during an Enrollment Period. Such election shall be effective for the
calendar year immediately following the Enrollment Period during which such
election was made and for all succeeding calendar years, unless the
Participant revokes his or her election or files a new election during the
Enrollment Period for such a succeeding calendar year. In which case, such
revocation or election, as the case may be, shall be effective on the
first day of such succeeding calendar year.
5.3 Irrevocability
Deferral elections made under this Plan with respect to any calendar year
will be final and, after the close of the Enrollment Period for such calendar
year, may not be revoked or amended in any manner until the Enrollment Period
for a succeeding calendar. In which case, such revocation or amendment, as
the case may be, shall be effective on the first day of such succeeding
calendar year.
5.4 Elections
A deferred compensation form filed by a Participant during an Enrollment
Period shall indicate: (1) the amount of the Deferrable Amount to be
deferred; and (2) the allocation in whole percentages of the deferred
Deferrable Amount between the Deferred Compensation Account and the Stock
Account.
Article 6. Hypothetical Investments
6.1 Deferred Compensation Account
Amounts in a Participant's Deferred Compensation Account are hypothetically
invested in an interest bearing account which bears interest computed at the
Interest Rate, compounded monthly.
6.2 Stock Account
Amounts in a Participant's Stock Account are hypothetically invested in units
of Common Stock. Amounts transferred to a Stock Account are recorded as
units of Common Stock, and fractions thereof, with one unit equating to a
single share of Common Stock. Thus, the value of one unit shall be the
Market Value of a single share of Common Stock. The use of units is merely a
bookkeeping convenience; the units are not actual shares of Common Stock.
Kodak will not reserve or otherwise set aside any Common Stock for or to any
Stock Account.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 50
6.3 Time Accounts are Credited
Amounts to be deferred shall be credited to the Participant's Accounts on the
date such amounts would otherwise be payable.
6.4 Stock Account Crediting
A. If a Participant makes an election to defer into his or her Stock
Account pursuant to Section 5.4 above, the Stock Account of the
Participant shall, for so long as the election remains in effect,
be credited with that number of units of Common Stock, and
fractions thereof, determined in accordance with Section 6.4(B)
immediately below as of each applicable date specified in Section
6.3 above.
B. In accordance with Section 6.4(A) above, the Stock Account of a
Participant shall be credited with that number of units of Common
Stock, and fractions thereof, equal to the number of full and
fractional shares of Common Stock, that could be purchased with the
dollar amount that would otherwise be paid to the Participant but
for his or her election to defer into the Stock Account using the
Market Value of the Common Stock as of the applicable date
specified in Section 6.3 above.
Article 7. Investment Elections
7.1 Elections
A Participant may make an investment election to direct that all or any
portion, designated as a whole percentage, of the existing balance of one of
his or her Accounts be transferred to his or her other Account, effective as
of the close of business on the last day of any calendar month (hereinafter
the election's "Effective Date"), by filing a written election with the
Administrator on or prior to such date.
7.2 Election into the Stock Account
If a Participant makes an investment election pursuant to Section 7.1 to
transfer an amount from his or her Deferred Compensation Account to his or
her Stock Account, effective as of the election's Effective Date, (i) his or
her Stock Account shall be credited with that number of units of Common
Stock, and fractions thereof, obtained by dividing the dollar amount elected
to be transferred by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Valuation
Date immediately preceding or coincident with the election's Effective Date;
and (ii) his or her Deferred Compensation Account shall be reduced by the
amount elected to be transferred.
7.3 Election out of the Stock Account
If a Participant makes an investment election pursuant to Section 7.1 to
transfer an amount from his or her Stock Account to his or her Deferred
Compensation Account, effective as of the election's Effective Date, (i) his
or her Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited with a dollar amount
equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the number of units to be
transferred by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Valuation Date
immediately preceding or coincident with the election's Effective Date; and
(ii) his or her Stock Account shall be reduced by the number of units elected
to be transferred.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 51
7.4 Dividend Equivalents
Effective as of the payment date for each cash dividend on the Common Stock,
additional units of Common Stock shall be credited to the Stock Account of
each Participant who has a balance in his or her Stock Account on the record
date for such dividend. The number of units that shall be credited
to the Stock Account of such a Participant shall be computed by multiplying
the dollar value of the dividend paid upon a single share of Common Stock by
the number of units of Common Stock held in the Participant's Stock Account
on the record date for such dividend and dividing the product thereof by the
Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date for such dividend.
7.5 Stock Dividends
Effective as of the payment date for each stock dividend (as defined in
Section 305 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) on the Common Stock,
additional units of Common Stock shall be credited to the Stock Account of
each Participant who has a balance in his or her Stock Account on the record
date for such dividend. The number of units that shall be credited to the
Stock Account of such a Participant shall equal the number of shares of
Common Stock which the Participant would have received as stock dividends had
he or she been the owner on the record date for such stock dividend of the
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of units credited to his
or her Stock Account on such record date. To the extent the Participant
would have also received cash, in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock,
had he or she been the record owner of such shares for such stock dividend,
then his or her Stock Account shall also be credited with that number of
units, or fractions thereof, equal to such cash amount divided by the Market
Value of the Common Stock on the payment date for such dividend.
7.6 Recapitalization
If Kodak undergoes a reorganization as defined in Section 368 (a) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Administrator may, in his or her sole and
absolute discretion, take whatever action he or she deems necessary,
advisable or appropriate with respect to the Stock Accounts in order to
reflect such transaction, including, but not limited to, adjusting the number
of units credited to a Participant's Stock Account.
7.7 Distributions
Amounts in respect of units of Common Stock shall be distributed in cash in
accordance with Articles 8 and 11. For purposes of a distribution pursuant
to Articles 8 or 11, the number of units to be distributed from a
Participant's Stock Account shall be valued by multiplying the number of such
units by the Market Value of the Common Stock as of the Valuation Date
immediately preceding the date such distribution is to occur. Pending the
complete distribution under Section 8.2 of the Stock Account of a Participant
who is no longer a member of the Board, the Participant shall continue to be
able to make elections pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 and his or her Stock
Account shall continue to be credited with additional units of Common Stock
pursuant to Sections 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6.
Article 8. Payment of Deferred Compensation
8.1 Background
No withdrawal may be made from a Participant's Accounts except as provided in
this Article 8 and Article 11.
8.2 Manner of Payment
Payment of a Participant's Accounts shall be made at the sole discretion of
the Administrator in a single sum or in annual installments; provided,
however, that payment in the event of death shall be made in accordance with
Section 8.5 below. The maximum number of annual installments is ten. All
payments from the Plan shall be made in cash.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 52
8.3 Timing of Payments
Payments shall be made as soon as administratively possible following the
fifth business day in March and shall commence in any year designated by the
Administrator up through the tenth year following the year in which the
Participant for any reason ceases to be a member of the Board.
Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, payment in the event of
death shall be made in accordance with Section 8.5.
8.4 Valuation
The amount of each payment shall be equal to the value, as of the immediately
preceding Valuation Date, of the Participant's Accounts, divided by the
number of installments remaining to be paid. If payment of a Participant's
Accounts is determined by the Administrator to be paid in installments and
the Participant has a balance in his or her Stock Account at the time of the
payment of an installment, the amount that shall be distributed from his or
her Stock Account shall be the amount obtained by multiplying the total
amount of the installment determined in accordance with the immediately
preceding sentence by the percentage obtained by dividing the balance in the
Stock Account as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date by the total
value of the Participant's Accounts as of such Valuation Date. Similarly, in
such case, the amount that shall be distributed from the Participant's
Deferred Compensation Account shall be the amount obtained by multiplying the
total amount of the installment determined in accordance with the first
sentence of this Section 8.4 by the percentage obtained by dividing the
balance in the Deferred Compensation Account as of the immediately preceding
Valuation Date by the total value of the Participant's Accounts as of such
Valuation Date.
8.5 Payment of Deferred Compensation After Death
If a Participant dies prior to complete payment of his or her Accounts, the
provisions of this Section 8.5 shall become operative.
A. Stock Account. Effective as of the date of a Participant's death,
the entire balance of his or her Stock Account shall be transferred to
his or her Deferred Compensation Account. For purposes of valuing the
units of Common Stock subject to such a transfer, the deceased
Participant's Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited with a
dollar amount equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the number of
units in the deceased Participant's Stock Account at the time of his or
her death by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of his or
her death. Thereafter, no amounts in the deceased Participant's
Deferred Compensation Account shall be eligible for transfer to the
deceased Participant's Stock Account by any person, including, but not
by way of limitation, the deceased Participant's beneficiary or legal
representative.
B. Distribution. The balance of the Participant's Accounts, valued as
of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date payment is
made, shall be paid in a single, lump-sum payment to: (1) the
beneficiary or contingent beneficiary designated by the Participant
in accordance with Section 8.5(C); or, in the absence of a valid
designation of a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary, (2) the
Participant's estate within 30 days after appointment of a legal
representative of the deceased Participant.
C. Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant shall have the right, at
any time, to designate any person or persons as his or her
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (both primary and contingent) to whom
payment under this Plan shall be paid in the event of his or her
death prior to complete distribution to the Participant of the
benefits due him or her under the Plan. Each Beneficiary
designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with
the Administrator during the Participant's lifetime on a form
provided by the Administrator. The filing of a new Beneficiary
designation form with the Administrator will cancel all Beneficiary
designation(s) previously filed.

Administrator and his or her actions with respect to the Plan shall be final

in or under the Plan and that no such decision or action shall be modified
upon judicial review unless such decision or action is proven to be arbitrary
or capricious.
9.4 Delegation of Authority
The Administrator may delegate some or all of his or her authority under the
Plan to any person or persons provided that any such delegation be in

Participant or his or her estate to receive any payment under the Plan shall
be an unsecured claim against the general assets of Kodak. No Participant

shareholder with respect to the units credited to his or her Stock Account.
10.2 Non-Assignability
The right of a Participant to the payment of deferred compensation as
provided in this Plan shall not be subject in any manner to alienation,

<PAGE>
<PAGE> 54
10.4 Amendment

representation, commitment, or guarantee that any tax treatment, including,

treatment, will be applicable with respect to amounts deferred under the
Plan, or paid to or for the benefit of a Participant or Beneficiary under the
Plan, or that such tax treatment will apply to or be available to a
Participant or Beneficiary on account of participation in the Plan.
10.7 Compliance with Securities Laws
The Board may, from time to time, impose additional, or modify or eliminate

11.3 Amendment On or After Change In Control
Upon a Change in Control, no action, including, but not by way of limitation,

Exchange Act, directly or indirectly, of 25% or more of the combined voting

deferral period.
Article 7. Investment Elections
The provisions of this Article 7 shall only apply to SOG Participants.
7.1 Elections
A. In General. Subject to Section 7.1(B), a SOG Participant may make
an investment election to direct that all or any portion,
designated as a whole percentage, of the existing balance of one of
his or her Accounts be transferred to his or her other Account,
effective as of the close of business on the last day of any
calendar month (hereinafter the election's "Effective Date"), by
filing a written election with the Compensation Committee on or
prior to such date.
B. Elections to Defer For A Fixed Period During Employment. A SOG
Participant may not transfer to his or her Stock Account any amount
subject to an election to defer for a fixed number of years
pursuant to Article 6, nor may he or she transfer to his or her
Stock Account any interest that has accrued on such amount.
7.2 Election into the Stock Account
If a SOG Participant makes an investment election pursuant to Section 7.1 to
transfer an amount from his or her Deferred Compensation Account to his or
her Stock Account, effective as of the election's Effective Date, (i) his or
her Stock Account shall be credited with that number of units of Common
Stock, and fractions thereof, obtained by dividing the dollar amount elected
to be transferred by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Valuation
Date coincident with or immediately preceding the election's Effective Date;
and (ii) his or her Deferred Compensation Account shall be reduced by the
amount elected to be transferred.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 64
7.3 Election out of the Stock Account
If a SOG Participant makes an investment election pursuant to Section 7.1 to
transfer an amount from his or her Stock Account to his or her Deferred
Compensation Account, effective as of the election's Effective Date, (i) his
or her Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited with a dollar amount
equal to the amount obtained by multiplying the number of units to be
transferred by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Valuation Date
coincident with or immediately preceding the election's Effective Date; and
(ii) his or her Stock account shall be reduced by the number of units elected
to be transferred.
7.4 Dividend Equivalents
Effective as of the payment date for each cash dividend on the Common Stock,
additional units of Common Stock shall be credited to the Stock Account of
each SOG Participant who had a balance in his or her Stock Account on the
record date for such dividend. The number of units that shall be credited to
the Stock Account of such a SOG Participant shall be computed by multiplying
the dollar value of the dividend paid upon a single share of Common Stock by
the number of units of Common Stock held in the SOG Participant's Stock
Account on the record date for such dividend and dividing the product thereof
by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date for such
dividend.
7.5 Stock Dividends
Effective as of the payment date for each stock dividend (as defined in
Section 305 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) on the Common Stock,
additional units of Common Stock shall be credited to the Stock Account of
each SOG Participant who had a balance in his or her Stock Account on the
record date for such dividend. The number of units that shall be credited to
the Stock Account of such a SOG Participant shall equal the number of shares
of Common Stock which the SOG Participant would have received as stock
dividends had he or she been the owner on the record date for such stock
dividend of the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of units
credited to his or her Stock Account on such record date. To the extent the
SOG Participant would have also received cash, in lieu of fractional shares
of Common Stock, had he or she been the record owner of such shares for such
stock dividend, then his or her Stock Account shall also be credited with
that number of units, or fractions thereof, equal to such cash amount divided
by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date for
such dividend.
7.6 Recapitalization
If Kodak undergoes a reorganization as defined in Section 368 (a) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, take whatever action it deems necessary, advisable
or appropriate with respect to the Stock Accounts in order to reflect such
transaction, including, but not limited to, adjusting the number of units
credited to a SOG Participant's Stock Account.
7.7 Distributions
Amounts in respect of units of Common Stock shall be distributed in cash in
accordance with Articles 6, 8 and 11. For purposes of a distribution
pursuant to Article 6, 8, or 11, the number of units to be distributed from a
SOG Participant's Stock Account shall be valued by multiplying the number of
such units by the Market Value of the Common Stock as of the Valuation Date
coincident with or immediately preceding the date such distribution is to
occur. Pending the complete distribution under Section 8.2 or liquidation
under Section 7.8 of the Stock Account of a SOG Participant who has
terminated his or her employment with the Company, the SOG Participant shall
continue to be able to make elections pursuant to Sections 7.2 and 7.3 and
his or her Stock Account shall continue to be credited with additional units
of Common Stock pursuant to Sections 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 65
7.8 Liquidation of Stock Account
The provisions of this Section 7.8 shall be applicable if on the second
anniversary of the SOG Participant's retirement or, if earlier, termination
of employment from the Company, the SOG Participant has a balance remaining
in his or her Stock Account. In such case, effective as of the first day of
the first calendar month immediately following the date of such second
anniversary, the entire balance of the SOG Participant's Stock Account shall
automatically be transferred to his or her Deferred Compensation Account and,
he or she shall thereafter be ineligible to transfer any amounts to his or
her Stock Account. For purposes of valuing the units of Common Stock subject
to such a transfer, the method described in Section 7.3 shall be used.
Article 8. Payment of Deferred Compensation
8.1 Background
No withdrawal may be made from a Participant's Accounts except as provided in
this Article 8 and Articles 6 and 13.
8.2 Manner of Payment
Payment of a Participant's Accounts shall be made at the sole discretion of
the Compensation Committee in a single sum or in annual installments;
provided, however, that payment in the event of death shall be made in
accordance with Section 8.6. The maximum number of installments is ten. All
payments from the Plan shall be made in cash.
8.3 Timing
Payments shall be made as soon as is administratively possible following the
fifth business day in March and shall commence in any year designated by the
Compensation Committee up through the tenth year following the year in which
the Participant retires, becomes disabled, or for any other reason, ceases to
be an employee of Kodak or any subsidiary of Kodak, but in no event later
than the year the Participant reaches age 71. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence of this Section 8.3, payment in the event of death shall be made in
accordance with Section 8.6.
8.4 Valuation
The amount of each payment shall be equal to the value, as of the immediately
preceding Valuation Date, of the Participant's Accounts, divided by the
number of installments remaining to be paid. If payment of a Participant's
Accounts is determined by the Compensation Committee to be paid in
installments and the Participant has a balance in his or her Stock Account at
the time of the payment of an installment, the amount that shall be
distributed from his or her Stock Account shall be the amount obtained by
multiplying the total amount of the installment determined in accordance with
the immediately preceding sentence by the percentage obtained by dividing the
balance in the Stock Account as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date
by the total value of the Participant's Accounts as of such date. Similarly,
in such case, the amount that shall be distributed from the Participant's
Deferred Compensation Account shall be the amount obtained by multiplying the
total amount of the installment determined in accordance with the first
sentence of this Section 8.4 by the percentage obtained by dividing the
balance in the Deferred Compensation Account as of the immediately preceding
Valuation Date by the total value of the Participant's Accounts as of such
date.

<PAGE> 66
8.5 Termination of Employment
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Participants who cease to be
employed by Kodak or any Subsidiary of Kodak and are employed by Eastman
Chemical Company or one of its subsidiaries in connection with the
distribution of the common stock of Eastman Chemical Company to the
shareholders of Kodak, shall not be deemed to have terminated employment for
purposes of this Plan.
8.6 Payment of Deferred Compensation After Death
If a Participant dies prior to complete payment of his or her Accounts, the
provisions of this Section 8.6 shall become operative.
A. Stock Account. Effective as of the date of a SOG Participant's
death, the entire balance of his or her Stock Account shall be
transferred to his or her Deferred Compensation Account. For
purposes of valuing the units of Common Stock subject to such a
transfer, the deceased SOG Participant's Deferred Compensation
Account shall be credited with a dollar amount equal to the amount
obtained by multiplying the number of units in the deceased SOG
Participant's Stock Account at the time of his or her death by the
Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of his or her death.
Thereafter, no amounts in the deceased SOG Participant's Deferred
Compensation Account shall be eligible for transfer to the deceased
SOG Participant's Stock Account by any person, including, but not
by way of limitation, the deceased SOG Participant's beneficiary or
legal representative.
B. Distribution. The balance of the Participant's Accounts, valued as
of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the date payment is
made, shall be paid in a single, lump-sum payment to: (1) the
beneficiary or contingent beneficiary designated by the Participant
on forms supplied by the Compensation Committee; or, in the absence
of a valid designation of a beneficiary or contingent beneficiary,
(2) the Participant's estate within 30 days after appointment of a
legal representative of the deceased Participant.
8.7 Acceleration of Payment for Hardship
Upon written approval from Kodak's Chairman of the Board (the Compensation
Committee, in the case of a request from the Chairman of the Board) a
Participant, whether or not he or she is still employed by Kodak or any
subsidiary of Kodak, may be permitted to receive all or part of his or her
Accounts if the Chairman of the Board (or the Compensation Committee, when
applicable) determines that an emergency event beyond the Participant's
control exists which would cause such Participant severe financial hardship
if the payment of his or her Accounts were not approved. Any such
distribution for hardship shall be limited to the amount needed to meet such
emergency. If such a distribution occurs while the Participant is employed
by Kodak or any subsidiary of Kodak, any election to defer compensation for
the year in which the Participant receives a hardship withdrawal shall be
ineffective as to compensation earned for the pay period following the pay
period during which the withdrawal is made and thereafter for the remainder
of such year and shall be ineffective as to any wage dividend or any other
compensation elected to be deferred for such year.

<PAGE> 72
3. Administration
This Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee is
authorized to establish such rules and regulations as it deems necessary for
the proper administration of the Plan, and to make such determinations and
interpretations and to take such action in connection with the Plan and any
options or stock appreciation rights granted under the Plan as it deems
necessary or advisable. All determinations of the Committee shall be by a
majority of its members, and its determinations shall be final.

Company shall be available for grant under the Plan (subject to adjustment as
provided in paragraph 10). Such shares may be authorized and unissued shares
or may be treasury shares. Upon the expiration or termination in whole or in
part of any unexercised grant, shares of common stock covered by such

6. Grant of Options
Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 7 and 8, options may be granted to
such eligible employees in such numbers, at such times during the term of the
Plan, and for such durations as the Committee shall determine. These stock
options may be incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422A of
the Internal Revenue Code or non-qualified stock options (i.e., stock options
which are not incentive stock options), or a combination of both. Options
may contain dissimilar provisions provided that all such provisions are
consistent with the Plan.
7. Terms and Conditions of Grants
(a) All options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the
following terms and conditions:
(i) Option Price -- The option price shall be not less than 100%
of the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the
Committee, on the date of grant.
(ii) Duration of Options -- Each option shall expire not later than
ten years from the date of grant, unless sooner exercised or
terminated in accordance with subparagraph (vi) or (vii) below.
(iii) Exercise of An Option -- No option may be exercised within
one year of the date on which the option is granted. One half
(50%) of an option shall become exercisable on the first
anniversary of the date of grant of such option and the remaining
half shall become exercisable on the second anniversary of the
date of grant.
Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, if any Participant
dies, becomes disabled, retires or terminates employment for any
approved reason, prior to the second anniversary of the date of
grant of any options to him, such options may be exercised at any
time between the date of the event and the date of termination of
the option indicated by its terms. Options may be exercised from
time to time by written notice to the Company stating the number
of shares with respect to which the option is being exercised.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 73
(iv) Payment -- No shares shall be issued or delivered until full
payment for the shares has been made, with cash, with Company
shares valued as of the date of exercise (including shares
previously acquired pursuant to the exercise of an option),
or with a combination of both.
(v) Nontransferability of Options -- An option shall not be
transferable by a Participant except by will or the
laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable, during
his lifetime, only by him.
(vi) Termination of Employment -- On the sixtieth (60th) day after
termination of a Participant's employment, each option previously
granted to him shall expire; provided, however, if employment is
terminated by reason of death, disability, retirement or any
approved reason, the option shall terminate at such time as
determined by the Committee. Transfers between the Company and a
Subsidiary shall not be a termination of employment. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Participants who cease to
be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary and are employed by
Eastman Chemical Company or one of its subsidiaries in connection
with the distribution of the common stock of Eastman Chemical
Company to the shareholders of the Company, shall not be deemed to
have terminated employment for purposes of this Plan and all
options and SARs outstanding on the date of such distribution.
(vii) Non-Competitive Provision -- Notwithstanding any Plan
provision, other than Paragraph 18.07 hereof, to the contrary,
if a Participant, without the written consent of the Company,
engages either directly or indirectly, in any manner or capacity,
as principal, agent, partner, officer, director, employee, or
otherwise, in any business or activity competitive with the
business conducted by the Company or any Subsidiary, or performs
any act or engages in any activity which, in the opinion of the
Chief Executive Officer, is inimical to the best interests of the
Company, either during or after employment with the Company or
Subsidiary, all options previously granted to him shall expire
forthwith.
(b) In addition to the terms and conditions of paragraph (a) above,
incentive stock options granted under the Plan shall also be subject to
the following: If a Participant disposes of shares acquired pursuant to
the exercise of an incentive stock option in a disqualifying
disposition within the time periods identified in Section 422A(a)(l)
of the Internal Revenue Code, such Participant is required to notify
the Company of such disposition and provide information as to the date
of disposition, sale price, quantity disposed of and any other
information about such disposition which the Company may reasonably
request.
8. Stock Appreciation Rights
Stock appreciation rights covering shares of Common Stock ("SARs") may be
granted to such eligible employees in such numbers and at such times during
the term of the Plan as the Committee shall determine. An SAR may be granted
in tandem with all or a portion of a related stock option under the Plan
("Tandem SARs"), or may be granted separately ("Freestanding SAR"). Tandem
SARs shall be granted concurrently with the grant of the stock option. A
Tandem SAR shall be exercisable only to the extent that the related stock
option is exercisable, and the "exercise price" of such an SAR (the base from
which the value of the SAR is measured at its exercise) shall be the option
price under the related stock option. The exercise price of a Freestanding
SAR shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock,
as determined by the Committee, on the date of grant of the Freestanding SAR.
A Tandem SAR and a Freestanding SAR shall entitle the recipient to
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 74
receive a payment equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares
of Common Stock covered by the SAR on the date of exercise over the exercise
price of the SAR. Such payment may be made in cash or in shares of Common
Stock or a combination of both, as the Committee shall determine. The
Committee may cancel or place a limit on the term of, or the amount payable
for, any SAR at any time. The Committee shall determine all other terms and
conditions of any SAR grant. An SAR shall not be transferable by a
Participant except by will or the laws of descent- and distribution and shall
be exercisable, during his lifetime, only by him. Unless the Committee shall
otherwise determine, to the extent a Freestanding SAR is exercisable, it will
be exercised automatically for a cash settlement on its expiration date.
Upon exercise of a Tandem SAR as to some or all of the shares covered by the
grant, the related stock option shall be cancelled automatically to the
extent of the number of shares covered by such exercise, and such shares
shall no longer be available for grant under Section 5. Conversely, if the
related stock option is exercised as to some or all of the shares covered by
the grant, the related Tandem SAR, if any, shall be cancelled automatically
to the extent of the number of shares covered by the stock option exercise.
9. Regulatory Approvals and Listing
The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate or certificates
for shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of an option or SAR prior to (a)
the obtaining of any approval from any governmental agency which the Company
shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, (b)
the admission of such shares to listing on any stock exchange on which the
Common Stock may then be listed, and (c) the completion of any registration
or other qualification of such shares under any state or Federal law or
rulings or regulations of any governmental body which the Company shall, in
its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.
10. Adjustment of Shares Available
If there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Company through the declaration of stock dividends, or through stock
splits, the number of shares available for options and SARs and the shares
subject to any option or SAR and the option prices or exercise prices shall
be automatically adjusted. If there is any change in the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company through any change in the
capital account of the Company or through any other transaction referred to
in Section 425(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, the number of shares
available for options and SARs and the shares subject to any option or SAR
and the option prices or exercise prices shall be appropriately adjusted by
the Committee.
11. Prohibition of Loans to Participants
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall directly or indirectly lend
money to a Participant for the purpose of assisting him to exercise any
option granted under the Plan.
12. Amendment
The Board may from time to time amend the Plan in any manner which it deems
in the best interest of the Company, but may not, without the approval of the
Company's shareholders, adopt any amendment which would (a) materially
increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan, (b) materially
increase the maximum number of shares which may be issued under the Plan
(other than pursuant to paragraph 10), or (c) materially modify the
requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 75
13. Term
The Plan shall become effective on November 8, 1985, and shall be submitted
for approval by the Company's shareholders at the 1986 annual meeting. No
option or SARs shall be exercisable before shareholder approval of the Plan.
No option or SAR shall be granted pursuant to the Plan after December 31,
1989.
14. Rights as a Shareholder
A Participant shall possess no rights as a shareholder with respect to the
shares covered by an option or SAR granted to him until the issuance to the
Participant of the stock certificate for the shares purchased.
15. Governing Law
The Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the law of New
York State.
16. Taxes
The Company will withhold, to the extent required by law, all applicable
income and employment taxes due as a result of transactions under this Plan
and the Company may require the Participant to pay to it such tax as a
condition of exercise of an option or SAR.
17. No Right to Continued Employment
Participation in the Plan shall not give any employee any right to remain in
the employ of the Company. The Company reserves the right to terminate any
Participant at any time.
18. Change In Control
18.01 Background. The terms of this Paragraph 18 shall immediately
become operative, without further action or consent by any
person or entity, upon a Change In Control, and once operative
shall supersede and control over any other provisions of this
Plan and its Administrative Guide.
18.02 Lapse of Restrictions. Upon a Change In Control, all terms,
conditions or restrictions in effect on any outstanding stock
options, regardless of whether such stock options are
incentive stock options or non- qualified stock options, or
SARs, regardless of whether such SARs are Tandem SARs or
Freestanding SARs, shall immediately lapse as of the date of
the event.
In addition, no other terms, conditions, or restrictions shall
be imposed on any stock options or SARs on or after such date.
18.03 Vesting of Stock Options and SARs. Upon a Change In Control,
all outstanding stock options and SARs shall automatically
become one hundred percent (100%) vested immediately upon the
occurrence of such event.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 76
18.04 Exercise and Payment of Freestanding SARs. Upon a Change In
Control, all outstanding -Freestanding SARs shall
automatically be exercised, without further action by the
Committee or any Participant, immediately upon the occurrence
of such event. As a result, any Participant, whether or not
he is still employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, then
holding any outstanding Freestanding SARs shall be paid the
value of his or her Freestanding SARs in a single lump-sum
cash payment as soon as practicable, but in no event later
than 90 days after the date of the Change In Control. For
purposes of making this payment, the value of such
Participant's Freestanding SARs shall be determined by
averaging the mean between the high and low at which Kodak
common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange on the
day of the Change In Control.
18.05 Cash Surrender of Stock Options. Upon the occurrence of a
Change In Control, any Participant, whether or not he is still
employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, then holding any
stock options, regardless of whether they are incentive stock
options or non-qualified stock options, shall be paid in a
single lump-sum cash payment the "Change In Control Value," as
that term is hereafter defined, of such stock options as soon
as practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the
date of the Change In Control. For purposes of this Paragraph
18, the "Change In Control Value" of a given stock option
shall be determined by multiplying the total number of shares
of common stock the Participant would then be entitled to
purchase under such option (assuming the application of
Subparagraphs 18.02 and 18.03 hereof) by the amount resulting
from subtracting the option price of such stock option from
the stock value obtained by averaging the mean between the
high and low at which Kodak common stock is traded on the New
York Stock Exchange on the date of the Change In Control.
Upon receipt of the foregoing lump sum cash payment by a
Participant, the outstanding stock options for which such
payment is being made, as well as the Tandem SARs related to
such stock options, shall be automatically cancelled.
18.06 Amendment on or After Change In Control. On or after a Change
in Control, no action, including, but not by way of
limitation, the amendment, suspension or termination of the
Plan, shall be taken which would affect the rights of any
Participant or the operation of this Plan with respect to any
stock options or SARs to which the Participant may have become
entitled hereunder on or prior to the date of such action or
as a result of such Change In Control.
18.07 Subparagraphs 7(a)(vi) and 7(a)(vii). Upon a Change In
Control, the terms and provisions of Subparagraphs 7(a)(vi)
and 7(a)(vii) shall become null and void and shall have no
further force and effect.

Plan after January 31, 1995.
7. Participation
The Committee shall select, from time to time, Participants from those Key
Employees who, in the opinion of the Committee, can further the Plan's
purposes. Once a Participant is so selected, the Committee shall determine
the type or types of Awards to be made to the Participant and shall establish
in the related Award Notices the terms, conditions, restrictions and/or
limitations, if any, applicable to the Awards in addition to those set forth
in this Plan and the administrative rules and regulations issued by the
Committee.
8. Stock Options

stock options which are not incentive stock options), or a
combination of both.

whole or in such installments and at such times as may be
determined by the Committee. The price at which Common Stock may

(c) Restrictions Relating to Incentive Stock Options. Stock options
issued in the form of incentive stock options shall, in addition to
being subject to all applicable terms, conditions, restrictions
and/or limitations established by the Committee, comply with
Section 422A of the Code. Accordingly, the aggregate fair market
value (determined at the time the option was granted) of the Common
Stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable
for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under
this Plan or any other plan of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000 (or such other limit as may
be required by the Code). Further, the per-share option price of
an incentive stock option shall not be less than 100 percent of the
fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the
Committee, on the date of grant. Also, each option shall expire
not later than ten years from its date of grant. The number of
shares of Common Stock that shall be available for incentive stock
options granted under the Plan is 16,000,000.
(d) Additional Terms and Conditions. The Committee may, by way of the
Award Notice or otherwise, establish such other terms, conditions,
restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any stock option Award,
provided they are not inconsistent with the Plan.
(e) Exercise. Upon exercise, the option price of a stock option may be
paid in cash, shares of Common Stock, shares of restricted Common
Stock, a combination of the foregoing, or such other consideration
as the Committee may deem appropriate. The Committee shall
establish appropriate methods for accepting Common Stock, whether
restricted or unrestricted, and may impose such conditions as it
deems appropriate on the use of such Common Stock to exercise a
stock option.

9. Stock Appreciation Rights
(a) Grants. Awards may be granted in the form of stock appreciation
rights ("SARs"). An SAR may be granted in tandem with all or a
portion of a related stock option under the Plan ("Tandem SARs"),
or may be granted separately ("Freestanding SARs"). A Tandem SAR
may be granted either at the time of the grant of the related stock
option or at any time thereafter during the term of the stock
option. SARs shall entitle the recipient to receive a payment
equal to the appreciation in market value of a stated number of
shares of Common Stock from the exercise price to the market value
on the date of exercise. In the case of SARs granted in tandem
with stock options granted prior to the grant of such SARs, the
appreciation in value is from the option price of such related
stock option to the market value on the date of exercise.
(b) Terms and Conditions of Tandem SARs. A Tandem SAR shall be
exercisable to the extent, and only to the extent, that the related
stock option is exercisable, and the "exercise price" of such an
SAR (the base from which the value of the SAR is measured at its
exercise) shall be the option price under the related stock option.
However, at no time shall a Tandem SAR be issued if the option
price of its related stock option is less than 50 percent of the
fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the
Committee, on the date of the Tandem SAR's grant. If a related
stock option is exercised as to some or all of the shares covered
by the Award, the related Tandem SAR, if any, shall be cancelled
automatically to the extent of the number of shares covered by the
stock option exercise. Upon exercise of a Tandem SAR as to some or
all of the shares covered by the Award, the related stock option
shall be cancelled automatically to the extent of the number of
shares covered by such exercise, and such shares shall again be
eligible for grant in accordance with paragraph 5 hereof, except to
the extent any shares of Common Stock are issued to settle the SAR.
(c) Terms and Conditions of Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs shall
be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such times
as may be determined by the Committee. The exercise price of a
Freestanding SAR shall also be determined by the Committee;
provided, however, that such price shall not be less than 50
percent of the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined
by the Committee, on the date of the Freestanding SAR's grant.
(d) Deemed Exercise. The Committee may provide that an SAR shall be
deemed to be exercised at the close of business on the scheduled
expiration date of such SAR if at such time the SAR by its terms
remains exercisable and, if so exercised, would result in a payment
to the holder of such SAR.
(e) Additional Terms and Conditions. The Committee may, by way of the
Award Notice or otherwise, determine such other terms, conditions,
restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any SAR Award, provided
they are not inconsistent with the Plan.
10. Stock Awards
(a) Grants. Awards may be granted in the form of Stock Awards. Stock
Awards shall be awarded in such numbers and at such times during
the term of the Plan as the Committee shall determine.
(b) Award Restrictions. Stock Awards shall be subject to such terms,
conditions, restrictions, and/or limitations, if any, as the
Committee deems appropriate including, but not by way of
limitation, restrictions on transferability and continued
employment. The Committee may modify or accelerate the delivery of
a Stock Award under such circumstances as it deems appropriate.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 84
(c) Rights as Shareholders. During the period in which any restricted
shares of Common Stock are subject to the restrictions imposed
under paragraph 10(b), the Committee may, in its discretion, grant
to the Participant to whom such restricted shares have been awarded
all or any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such
shares, including, but not by way of limitation, the right to vote
such shares and to receive dividends.
(d) Evidence of Award. Any stock award granted under the Plan may be
evidenced in such manner as the Committee deems appropriate,
including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance
of a stock certificate or certificates.
11. Performance Units
(a) Grants. Awards may be granted in the form of performance units.
Performance units, as that term is used in this Plan, shall refer
to Units valued by reference to designated criteria established by
the Committee, other than Common Stock.
(b) Performance Criteria. Performance units shall be contingent on the
attainment during a performance period of certain performance
objectives. The length of the performance period, the performance
objectives to be achieved during the performance period, and the
measure of whether and to what degree such objectives have been
attained shall be conclusively determined by the Committee in the
exercise of its absolute discretion. Performance objectives may be
revised by the Committee, at such times as it deems appropriate
during the performance period, in order to take into consideration
any unforeseen events or changes in circumstances.
(c) Additional Terms and Conditions. The Committee may, by way of the
Award Notice or otherwise, determine such other terms, conditions,
restrictions, and/or limitations, if any, of any Award of
performance units, provided they are not inconsistent with the
Plan.
12. Performance Shares
(a) Grants. Awards may be granted in the form of performance shares.
Performance shares, as that term is used in this Plan, shall refer
to shares of Common Stock or Units which are expressed in terms of
Common Stock.
(b) Performance Criteria. Performance shares shall be contingent upon
the attainment during a performance period of certain performance
objectives. The length of the performance period, the performance
objectives to be achieved during the performance period, and the
measure of whether and to what degree such objectives have been
attained shall be conclusively determined by the Committee in the
exercise of its absolute discretion. Performance objectives may be
revised by the Committee, at such times as it deems appropriate
during the performance period, in order to take into consideration
any unforeseen events or changes in circumstances.
(c) Additional Terms and Conditions. The Committee may, by way of the
Award Notice or otherwise, determine such other terms, conditions,
restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any Award of
performance shares, provided they are not inconsistent with the
Plan.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 85
13. Payment of Awards
At the discretion of the Committee, payment of Awards may be made in cash,
Common Stock, a combination of cash and Common Stock, or any other form of
property as the Committee shall determine. In addition, payment of Awards may
include such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as
the Committee deems appropriate, including, in the case of Awards paid in the
form of Common Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions.
Further, payment of Awards may be made in the form of a lump sum or
installments, as determined by the Committee.
14. Dividends and Dividend Equivalents
If an Award is granted in the form of a Stock Award, stock option, or
performance share, or in the form of any other stock-based grant, the
Committee may choose, at the time of the grant of the Award or any time
thereafter up to the time of the Award's payment, to include as part of such
Award an entitlement to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, subject to
such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as the
Committee may establish. Dividends and dividend equivalents shall be paid in
such form and manner (i.e., lump sum or installments), and at such time as the
Committee shall determine. All dividends or dividend equivalents which are
not paid currently may, at the Committee's discretion, accrue interest, be
reinvested into additional shares of Common Stock or, in the case of dividends
or dividend equivalents credited in connection with performance shares, be
credited as additional performance shares and paid to the Participant if and
when, and to the extent that, payment is made pursuant to such Award.
15. Deferral of Awards
At the discretion of the Committee, payment of a Stock Award, performance
share, performance unit, dividend, dividend equivalent, or any portion thereof
may be deferred by a Participant until such time as the Committee may
establish. All such deferrals shall be accomplished by the delivery of a
written, irrevocable election by the Participant prior to the time such
payment would otherwise be made, on a form provided by the Company. Further,
all deferrals shall be made in accordance with administrative guidelines
established by the Committee to ensure that such deferrals comply with all
applicable requirements of the Code and its regulations. Deferred payments
shall be paid in a lump sum or installments, as determined by the Committee.
The Committee may also credit interest, at such rates to be determined by the
Committee, on cash payments that are deferred and credit dividends or dividend
equivalents on deferred payments denominated in the form of Common Stock.
16. Termination of Employment
If a Participant's employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates for
a reason other than death, disability, retirement, or any approved reason, all
unexercised, unearned, and/or unpaid Awards, including, but not by way of
limitation, Awards earned but not yet paid, all unpaid dividends and dividend
equivalents, and all interest accrued on the foregoing shall be cancelled or
forfeited, as the case may be, unless the Participant's Award Notice provides
otherwise. The Committee shall have the authority to promulgate rules and
regulations to (i) determine what events constitute disability, retirement, or
termination for an approved reason for purposes of the Plan, and (ii)
determine the treatment of a Participant under the Plan in the event of his
death, disability, retirement or termination for an approved reason. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Participants who cease to be employed
by the Company or a Subsidiary and are employed by Eastman Chemical Company or
one of its subsidiaries in connection with the distribution of the common
stock of Eastman Chemical Company to the shareholders of the Company, shall
not be deemed to have terminated employment for purposes of this Plan and all
Awards outstanding on the date of such distribution.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 86
17. Nonassignability
No Awards or any other payment under the Plan shall be subject in any manner
to alienation, anticipation, sale, transfer (except by will or the laws of
descent and distribution), assignment, pledge, or encumbrance, nor shall any
Award be payable to or exercisable by anyone other than the Participant to
whom it was granted.
18. Adjustment of Shares Available
If there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
through the declaration of stock dividends, stock splits or the like, the
number of shares available for Awards, the shares subject to any Award and the
option prices or exercise prices of Awards shall be automatically adjusted.
If there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
through any change in the capital account of the Company, or through any other
transaction referred to in Section 425(a) of the Code, the Committee shall
make appropriate adjustments in the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
which may be issued under the Plan and any adjustments and/or modifications to
outstanding Awards as it deems appropriate. In the event of any other change
in the capital structure or in the Common Stock of the Company, the Committee
shall also be authorized to make such appropriate adjustments in the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan and any
adjustments and/or modifications to outstanding Awards as it deems
appropriate.
19. Withholding Taxes
The Company shall be entitled to deduct from any payment under the Plan,
regardless of the form of such payment, the amount of all applicable income
and employment taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such
payment or may require the Participant to pay to it such tax prior to and as a
condition of the making of such payment. In accordance with any applicable
administrative guidelines it establishes, the Committee may allow a
Participant to pay the amount of taxes required by law to be withheld from an
Award by withholding from any payment of Common Stock due as a result of such
Award, or by permitting the Participant to deliver to the Company, shares of
Common Stock having a fair market value, as determined by the Committee, equal
to the amount of such required withholding taxes.
20. Noncompetition Provision
Unless the Award Notice specifies otherwise, a Participant shall forfeit all
unexercised, unearned, and/or unpaid Awards, including, but not by way of
limitation, Awards earned but not yet paid, all unpaid dividends and dividend
equivalents, and all interest, if any, accrued on the foregoing if, (i) in the
opinion of the Committee, the Participant, without the written consent of the
Company, engages directly or indirectly in any manner or capacity as
principal, agent, partner, officer, director, employee, or otherwise, in any
business or activity competitive with the business conducted by the Company or
any Subsidiary; or (ii) the Participant performs any act or engages in any
activity which in the opinion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company is
inimical to the best interests of the Company. In addition, the Committee
may, in its discretion, condition the deferral of any Award, dividend, or
dividend equivalent under paragraph 15 hereof on a Participant's compliance
with the terms of this paragraph 20, and cause such a Participant to forfeit
any payment which is so deferred if the Participant fails to comply with the
terms hereof.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 87
21. Amendments to Awards
The Committee may at any time unilaterally amend any unexercised, unearned, or
unpaid Award, including, but not by way of limitation, Awards earned but not
yet paid, to the extent it deems appropriate; provided, however, that any such
amendment which, in the opinion of the Committee, is adverse to the
Participant shall require the Participant's consent.
22. Regulatory Approvals and Listings
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, the Company
shall have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates of Common Stock
evidencing Stock Awards or any other Award resulting in the payment of Common
Stock prior to (a) the obtaining of any approval from any governmental agency
which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable, (b) the admission of such shares to listing on the stock exchange
on which the Common Stock may be listed, and (c) the completion of any
registration or other qualification of said shares under any state or federal
law or ruling of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.
23. No Right to Continued Employment or Grants
Participation in the Plan shall not give any Key Employee any right to remain
in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company or, in the case
of employment with a Subsidiary, the Subsidiary, reserves the right to
terminate any Key Employee at any time. Further, the adoption of this Plan
shall not be deemed to give any Key Employee or any other individual any right
to be selected as a Participant or to be granted an Award.
24. Amendment
The Committee may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. In addition, the
Committee may, from time to time, amend the Plan in any manner, but may not
without shareholder approval adopt any amendment which would (a) materially
increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan, (b) materially
increase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the
Plan (except as specified in paragraph 18), or (c) materially modify the
requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan.
25. Governing Law
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, except as superseded by applicable Federal Law.
26. Change In Ownership
(a) Background. Upon a Change In Ownership: (i) the terms of this
paragraph 26 shall immediately become operative, without further
action or consent by any person or entity; (ii) all terms,
conditions, restrictions, and limitations in effect on any
unexercised, unearned, unpaid, and/or deferred Award, or any other
outstanding Award, shall immediately lapse as of the date of such
event; (iii) no other terms, conditions, restrictions and/or
limitations shall be imposed upon any Awards on or after such date,
and in no circumstance shall an Award be forfeited on or after such
date; (iv) all unexercised, unvested, unearned, and/or unpaid Awards
or any other outstanding Awards shall automatically become one
hundred percent (100%) vested immediately.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 88
(b) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Upon a Change In Ownership, all
unpaid dividends and dividend equivalents and all interest accrued
thereon, if any, shall be treated and paid under this paragraph 26
in the identical manner and time as the Award under which such
dividends or dividend equivalents have been credited. For example,
if upon a Change In Ownership, an Award under this paragraph 26 is
to be paid in a prorated fashion, all unpaid dividends and dividend
equivalents with respect to such Award shall be paid according to
the same formula used to determine the amount of such prorated
Award.
(c) Treatment of Performance Units and Performance Shares. If a Change
In Ownership occurs during the term of one or more performance
periods for which the Committee has granted performance units and/or
performance shares (hereinafter a "current performance period"), the
term of each such performance period shall immediately terminate
upon the occurrence of such event. Upon a Change In Ownership, for
each "current performance period" and each completed performance
period for which the Committee has not on or before such date made a
determination as to whether and to what degree the performance
objectives for such period have been attained (hereinafter a
"completed performance period"), it shall be assumed that the
performance objectives have been attained at a level of one hundred
percent (100%) or the equivalent thereof.
A Participant in one or more "current performance periods" shall be
considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive, a
prorated portion of the Awards previously granted to him for each
such performance period. Such prorated portion shall be determined
by multiplying the number of performance shares or performance
units, as the case may be, granted to the Participant by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the total number of whole and partial
years (with each partial year being treated as a whole year) that
have elapsed since the beginning of the performance period, and the
denominator of which is the total number of years in such
performance period.
A Participant in one or more "completed performance periods" shall
be considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive
all the performance shares or performance units, as the case may be,
previously granted to him during each such performance period.
(d) Valuation of Awards. Upon a Change In Ownership, all outstanding
Units of Common Stock, Freestanding SARs, stock options (including
incentive stock options), and performance shares (including those
earned as a result of the application of paragraph 26(c) above) and
all other outstanding stock-based Awards, including those granted by
the Committee pursuant to its authority under paragraph 3(h) hereof,
shall be valued and cashed out on the basis of the Change In Control
Price.
(e) Payment of Awards. Upon a Change In Ownership, any Participant,
whether or not he is still employed by the Company or a Subsidiary,
shall be paid, in a single lump-sum cash payment, as soon as
practicable but in no event later than 90 days after the Change In
Ownership, all of his outstanding Units of Common Stock,
Freestanding SARs, stock options (including incentive stock
options), performance units (including those earned as a result of
the application of paragraph 26(c) above), and performance shares
(including those earned as a result of paragraph 26(c) above), and
all other outstanding Awards, including those granted by the
Committee pursuant to its authority under paragraph 3(h) hereof.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 89
(f) Deferred Awards. Upon a Change In Ownership, all Awards deferred
by a Participant under paragraph 15 hereof, but for which he has
not received payment as of such date, shall be paid to him in a
single lump-sum cash payment as soon as practicable, but in no
event later than 90 days after the Change In Ownership. For
purposes of making such payment, the value of all Awards which are
stock based shall be determined by the Change In Control Price.
27. Change In Control
(a) Background. All Participants shall be eligible for the treatment
afforded by this Paragraph 27 if their employment terminates within
two years following a Change In Control, unless the termination is
due to (i) death, (ii) disability entitling the Participant to
benefits under his employer's long-term disability plan, (iii)
Cause, (iv) resignation other than (A) resignation from a declined
reassignment to a job that is not reasonably equivalent in
responsibility or compensation (as defined in the Company's
Termination Allowance Plan), or that is not in the same geographic
area (as defined in the Company's Termination Allowance Plan), or
(B) resignation within thirty days following a reduction in base
pay, or (v) retirement entitling the Participant to benefits under
his employer's retirement plan.
(b) Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions. If a Participant is eligible
for treatment under this paragraph 27, (i) all of the terms,
conditions, restrictions, and limitations in effect on any of his
unexercised, unearned, unpaid and/or deferred Awards shall
immediately lapse as of the date of his termination of employment;
(ii) no other terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations
shall be imposed upon any of his Awards on or after such date, and
in no event shall any of his Awards be forfeited on or after such
date; and (iii) all of his unexercised, unvested, unearned and/or
unpaid Awards shall automatically become one hundred percent (100%)
vested immediately upon his termination of employment.
(c) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. If a Participant is eligible
for treatment under this paragraph 27, all of his unpaid dividends
and dividend equivalents and all interest accrued thereon, if any,
shall be treated and paid under this Paragraph 27 in the identical
manner and time as the Award under which such dividends or dividend
equivalents have been credited.
(d) Treatment of Performance Units and Performance Shares. If a
Participant holding either performance units or performance shares
is terminated under the conditions described in (a) above, the
provisions of this paragraph (d) shall determine the manner in
which such performance units and/or performance shares shall be
paid to him. For purposes of making such payment, each "current
performance period," as that term is defined in paragraph 26(c)
hereof, shall be treated as terminating upon the date of the
Participant's termination of employment, and for each such "current
performance period" and each "completed performance period," as
that term is defined in paragraph 26(c) hereof, it shall be assumed
that the performance objectives have been attained at a level of
one hundred percent (100%) or the equivalent thereof. If the
Participant is participating in one or more "current performance
periods," he shall be considered to have earned and, therefore, be
entitled to receive that prorated portion of the Awards previously
granted to him for each such performance period, as determined in
accordance with the formula established in paragraph 26(c) hereof.
A Participant in one or more "completed performance periods" shall
be considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive
all the performance shares and performance units previously granted
to him during each performance period.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 90
(e) Valuation of Awards. If a Participant is eligible for treatment
under this paragraph 27, his Awards shall be valued and cashed out
in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 26(d) hereof.
(f) Payment of Awards. If a Participant is eligible for treatment
under this paragraph 27, he shall be paid, in a single lump-sum
cash payment, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 90
days after the date of his termination of employment, all of his
outstanding Units of Common Stock, Freestanding SARs, stock options
(including incentive stock options), performance units (including
those earned as a result of the application of paragraph 27(d)
above), and performance shares (including those earned as a result
of paragraph 27(d) above), and all of his other outstanding Awards,
including those granted by the Committee pursuant to its authority
under paragraph 3(h) hereof.
(g) Deferred Awards. If a Participant is eligible for treatment under
this paragraph 27, all of his deferred Awards for which he has not
received payment as of the date of his termination of employment
shall be paid to him in a single lump-sum cash payment as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the date of
his termination. For purposes of making such payment, the value of
all Awards which are stock based shall be determined by the Change
In Control Price.
(h) Section 16 of Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this paragraph 27 to the contrary, any Participant who, on the date
of his termination of employment under the conditions described in
subparagraph (a) above, holds any stock options or Freestanding
SARs that have not been outstanding for a period of at least six
months from their date of grant and who on the date of such
termination is required to report under Section 16 of the Exchange
Act shall not be paid such Award until the first day next following
the end of such six-month period.
(i) Miscellaneous. Upon a Change In Control, (i) the provisions of
paragraphs 16, 20 and 21 hereof shall become null and void and of
no force and effect insofar as they apply to a Participant who has
been terminated under the conditions described in (a) above; and
(ii) no action, including, but not by way of limitation, the
amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan, shall be taken
which would affect the rights of any Participant or the operation
of the Plan with respect to any Award to which the Participant may
have become entitled hereunder on or prior to the date of the
Change In Control or to which he may become entitled as a result of
such Change In Control.
(j) Legal Fees. The Company shall pay all legal fees and related
expenses incurred by a Participant in seeking to obtain or enforce
any payment, benefit or right he may be entitled to under the Plan
after a Change In Control; provided, however, the Participant shall
be required to repay any such amounts to the Company to the extent
a court of competent jurisdiction issues a final and non-appealable
order setting forth the determination that the position taken by
the Participant was frivolous or advanced in bad faith.
28. No Right, Title, or Interest in Company Assets
No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder as a result of
participation in the Plan until the date of issuance of a stock certificate
in his name, and, in the case of restricted shares of Common Stock, such
rights are granted to the Participant under paragraph 10(c) hereof. To the
extent any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under
this Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured
creditor of the Company.
29. Gender
Throughout this Plan, the masculine gender shall include the feminine.

As detailed below in the succeeding Sections of this Article 6, the procedure
for determining Awards for a Performance Period entails the following: (a)
determination of Maximum Award; (b) determination of Maximum Award Pool; (c)
determination of Actual Award Pool; and (d) allocation of Actual Award Pool
among individual Participants. Upon completion of this process, any Awards
earned for the Performance Period shall be paid in accordance with Article 7.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 99
6.2 Determination of Maximum Award
(a) Purpose of Maximum Award. The Maximum Award for a Performance
Period is an addend in the calculation of the Maximum Award Pool
for such Performance Period.
(b) Calculation of Maximum Award. The Maximum Award for a Performance
Period is the dollar amount obtained by applying the Performance
Formula for such Performance Period against the Performance Goals
for the same Performance Period.
6.3 Determination of Maximum Award Pool
(a) Purpose of Maximum Award Pool. The Maximum Award Pool, for a
Performance Period, serves as the basis for calculating the maximum
amount of Awards that may be granted to all Participants for such
Performance Period.
(b) Calculation of Maximum Award Pool. The Maximum Award Pool for a
Performance Period shall be calculated by adding the Maximum Award
for such Performance Period with the Carryforward Amount.
(c) Limitation. The total of all Awards granted for a Performance
Period shall not exceed the amount of the Maximum Award Pool for
such Performance Period.
(d) Allocation of Maximum Award Pool to Covered Employees. Within the
first 90 days of a Performance Period (or, if longer, within the
maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), the
Committee shall allocate in writing, or establish in writing an
objective means of allocating, on behalf of each Covered Person, a
portion of the Maximum Award Pool (not to exceed the amount set
forth in Section 6.5(a)) to be granted for such Performance Period
in the event the Performance Goals for such period are attained.
(e) Negative Discretion. The Committee is authorized at any time
during or after a Performance Period, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to reduce or eliminate the Maximum Award Pool for the
Performance Period, for any reason, based on such factors, indicia,
standards, goals, and/or measures it determines in the exercise of
its sole discretion. Similarly, the Committee is authorized at any
time during or after a Performance Period, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to reduce or eliminate the portion of the Maximum Award
Pool allocated to any Covered Employee for the Performance Period,
for any reason.
6.4 Determination of Actual Award Pool
(a) Purpose of Actual Award Pool. The Actual Award Pool for a
Performance Period determines the aggregate amount of all the
Awards that are to be issued under the Plan for such Performance
Period.
(b) Establishment of Actual Award Pool. The Actual Award Pool for a
Performance Period shall be the Maximum Award Pool for such period
after adjustment, if any, by the Committee through Negative
Discretion. Thus, to the extent the Committee elects for a
Performance Period not to exercise Negative Discretion with respect
to the Maximum Award Pool, the Actual Award Pool for the
Performance Period shall be the Maximum Award Pool for such period.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 100
(c) Allocation of Actual Award Pool to Individual Participants. The
portion of the Actual Award Pool that will be awarded to any
individual Participant will be determined by the Committee, in its
sole and absolute discretion, based on such factors, indicia,
standards, goals, and measures which it determines in the exercise
of its sole discretion. By way of illustration, and not by way of
limitation, the Committee may, but shall not be required to,
consider: (1) the Participant's position and level of
responsibility, individual merit, contribution to the success of
the Company and Target Award; (2) the performance of the Company or
the organizational unit of the Participant based upon attainment of
financial and other performance criteria and goals; and (3)
business unit, division or department achievements.
(d) Adjustment to Carryforward Amount. To the extent the sum of all
Awards paid for a Performance Period exceeds the Maximum Award for
such period, the Carryforward Amount shall be reduced by an amount
equal to such difference.
6.5 Limitations on Awards to Covered Employees
The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall control over any Plan provision to
the contrary.
(a) Maximum Award Payable to Covered Employees. The maximum Award
payable to any Covered Employee under the Plan for a Performance

(b) Attainment of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals for a
Performance Period must be achieved in order for a Covered Employee
to receive an Award for such Performance Period.
(c) Allocation of Actual Award Pool. The portion of the Actual Award
Pool allocated to a Covered Employee by the Committee pursuant to
Section 6.4(c) shall not exceed the portion of the Maximum Award
Pool allocated to such Covered Employee under Section 6.3(d).
ARTICLE 7 -- PAYMENT OF AWARDS FOR A PERFORMANCE PERIOD
7.1 Certification
(a) In General. Following the completion of each Performance Period,
the Committee shall meet to review and certify in writing whether,
and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance
Period have been achieved.
(b) Performance Goals Achieved. If the Committee certifies that the
Performance Goals have been achieved, it shall, based upon
application of the Performance Formula to the Performance Goals for
such period, calculate and certify in writing the amount of: (i)
the Maximum Award; (ii) the Maximum Award Pool; and (iii) the
Maximum Award Pool to be allocated to each Covered Employee in
accordance with Section 6.3(d). Upon completion of these written
certifications, the Committee shall determine the amount of the
Actual Award Pool for the Performance Period.
(c) Performance Goals Not Achieved. In the event the Performance Goals
for a Performance Period are not achieved, the limitation contained
in Section 6.5(b) shall apply to the Covered Employees. Further,
any Awards granted for the Performance Period must be paid from the
Carryforward Amount which shall be reduced to reflect the amount of
such Awards.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 101
7.2 Election of Form of Award
Prior to or coincident with its calculation of the amount of the Actual Award
Pool for a Performance Period, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion,

the terms of this Article 10 shall immediately become operative, without
further action or consent by any person or entity; (b) all terms, conditions,
restrictions and limitations in effect on any unpaid and/or deferred Award
shall immediately lapse as of the date of such event; (c) no other terms,
conditions, restrictions, and/or limitations shall be imposed upon any Awards
on or after such date, and in no event shall an Award be forfeited on or

outstanding Awards shall automatically become one hundred percent (100%)
vested immediately.
10.2 Payment of Awards
Upon a Change in Ownership, any Key Employee, whether or not he or she is

forth in (a) and (b) below:
(a) All of the Key Employee's unpaid and/or deferred Awards; and

Ownership occurs. The amount of the pro-rata Award shall be
determined by multiplying the Target Award for such Performance
Period for Participants in the same wage grade as the Key Employee
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of full
months in the Performance Period prior to the date of the Change in
Ownership and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
full months in the Performance Period. For purposes of this
calculation, a partial month shall be treated as a full month to
the extent of 15 or more days in such month have elapsed. To the
extent Target Awards have not yet been established for the
Performance Period, the Target Awards for the immediately preceding
Performance Period shall be used. The pro-rata Awards shall be
paid to the Key Employee in the form of a lump-sum cash payment.
10.3 Miscellaneous
Upon a Change In Ownership, no action, including, but not by way of

entitled hereunder on or prior to the date of such action or as a result of
such Change In Ownership.

Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan, including, but not
limited to, Sections 1.1, 4.4 and 13.10, the provisions of this Article 11

eligible for the treatment afforded by this Article 11 if their employment
with the Company terminates within two years following a Change In Control,
unless the termination is due to (a) death; (b) Disability; (c) Cause; (d)
resignation other than (1) resignation from a declined reassignment to a job
<PAGE>

resignation within thirty days of a reduction in base pay; or (e) Retirement.
11.2 Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions
If a Key Employee qualifies for treatment under Section 11.1, his or her

this Article 11, all of the Key Employee's unvested and/or unpaid Awards
shall automatically become one hundred percent (100%) vested immediately.
11.3 Payment of Awards
If a Key Employee qualifies for treatment under Section 11.1, he or she shall
be paid, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 90 days after his

(a) All of the Key Employee's unpaid and/or deferred Awards; and
(b) A pro-rata Award for the Performance Period in which his or her
termination of employment occurs. The amount of the pro-rata Award
shall be determined by multiplying the Target Award for such
Performance Period for Participants in the same wage grade as the
Key Employee by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of full months in the Performance Period prior to the date
of the Key Employee's termination of employment and the denominator
of which shall be the total number of full months in the
Performance Period. For purposes of this calculation, a partial
month shall be treated as a full month to the extent 15 or more
days in such month have elapsed. To the extent Target Awards have
not yet been established for the Performance Period, the Target
Awards for the immediately preceding Performance Period shall be
used. The pro-rata Awards shall be paid to the Key Employee in the
form of a lump-sum cash payment.
11.4 Miscellaneous
Upon a Change In Control, no action, including, but not by way of limitation,
the amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan, shall be taken which
would affect the rights of any Key Employee or the operation of the Plan with
respect to any Award to which the Key Employee may have become entitled
hereunder prior to the date of the Change In Control or to which he or she
may become entitled as a result of such Change In Control.

Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in the maximum number
of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan and
any adjustments and/or modifications to outstanding Awards as it,
in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. In the event of any

Code.
ARTICLE 13 -- MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 Nonassignability
No Awards under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to alienation,
anticipation, sale, transfer (except by will or the laws of descent and

13.2 Withholding Taxes
The Company shall be entitled to deduct from any payment under the Plan,
regardless of the form of such payment, the amount of all applicable income
and employment taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such
payment or may require the Participant to pay to it such tax prior to and as
a condition of the making of such payment. In accordance with any applicable
administrative guidelines it establishes, the Committee may allow a
Participant to pay the amount of taxes required by law to be withheld from an
Award by withholding from any payment of Common Stock due as a result of such
Award, or by permitting the Participant to deliver to the Company, shares of
Common Stock having a fair market value, as determined by the Committee,
equal to the amount of such required withholding taxes.
13.3 Amendments to Awards
The Committee may at any time unilaterally amend any unearned, deferred or
unpaid Award, including, but not by way of limitation, Awards earned but not
yet paid, to the extent it deems appropriate; provided, however, that any
such amendment which, in the opinion of the Committee, is adverse to the
Participant shall require the Participant's consent.

<PAGE> 105
13.4 Regulatory Approvals and Listings
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, the Company
shall have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates of Common Stock
evidencing Awards or any other Award resulting in the payment of Common Stock
prior to (a) the obtaining of any approval from any governmental agency which
the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable, (b) the admission of such shares to listing on the stock exchange
on which the Common Stock may be listed, and (c) the completion of any
registration or other qualification of said shares under any state or Federal
law or ruling of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.
13.5 No Right to Continued Employment or Grants
Participation in the Plan shall not give any Key Employee any right to remain
in the employ of the Company. Kodak or, in the case of employment with a
Subsidiary, the Subsidiary, reserves the right to terminate any Key Employee
at any time. Further, the adoption of this Plan shall not be deemed to give
any Key Employee or any other individual any right to be selected as a
Participant or to be granted an Award.
13.6 Amendment/Termination
The Committee may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time with or without
prior notice. In addition, the Committee may, from time to time and with or
without prior notice, amend the Plan in any manner, but may not without
shareholder approval adopt any amendment which would require the vote of the
shareholders of Kodak pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, but only
insofar as such amendment affects Covered Employees.
13.7 Governing Law
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York, except as superseded by applicable Federal Law.
13.8 No Right, Title, or Interest in Company Assets
No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder as a result of
participation in the Plan until the date of issuance of a stock certificate
in his or her name, and, in the case of restricted shares of Common Stock,
such rights are granted to the Participant under the Plan. To the extent any
person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan,
such rights shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured creditor of
the Company and the Participant shall not have any rights in or against any
specific assets of the Company. All of the Awards granted under the Plan
shall be unfunded.
13.9 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences
No person connected with the Plan in any capacity, including, but not limited
to, Kodak and its Subsidiaries and their directors, officers, agents and

treatment, including, but not limited to, Federal, state and local income,
estate and gift tax treatment, will be applicable with respect to amounts
deferred under the Plan, or paid to or for the benefit of a Participant under
the Plan, or that such tax treatment will apply to or be available to a
Participant on account of participation in the Plan.
13.10 Compliance with Section 162(m)
If any provision of the Plan would cause the Awards granted to a Covered
Person not to constitute qualified Performance-Based Compensation under
Section 162(m) of the Code, that provision, insofar as it pertains to the
Covered Person, shall be severed from, and shall be deemed not to be a part
of, this Plan, but the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and
effect.

ARTICLE 6 -- SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock, $2.50 par value per share, of
Kodak which shall be available for grant of Awards under the Plan (including
incentive stock options) during its term shall not exceed 16,000,000. (Such
amount shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 6.2.) Any
shares of Common Stock related to Awards which terminate by expiration,
forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise without the issuance of such shares,
are settled in cash in lieu of Common Stock, or are exchanged with the
Committee's permission for Awards not involving Common Stock, shall not be
available again for grant under the Plan. Moreover, shares of Common Stock
with respect to which an SAR has been exercised and paid in cash shall not
again be eligible for grant under the Plan. The maximum number of shares
available for issuance under the Plan shall not be reduced to reflect any
dividends or dividend equivalents that are reinvested into additional shares
of Common Stock or credited as additional performance shares. The shares of
Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan may be authorized and
unissued shares or treasury shares.
6.2 Adjustment to Shares
(a) In General. The provisions of this Subsection 6.2(a) are subject
to the limitation contained in Subsection 6.2(b). If there is any
change in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock through
the declaration of stock dividends, stock splits or the like, the
number of shares available for Awards, the shares subject to any
Award and the option prices or exercise prices of Awards shall be
automatically adjusted. If there is any change in the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock through any change in the
capital account of Kodak, or through a merger, consolidation,
separation (including a spin off or other distribution of stock or
property), reorganization (whether or not such reorganization comes
within the meaning of such term in Section 368(a) of the Code) or
partial or complete liquidation, the Committee shall make
appropriate adjustments in the maximum number of shares of Common
Stock which may be issued under the Plan and any adjustments and/or
modifications to outstanding Awards as it, in its sole discretion,
deems appropriate. In the event of any other change in the capital
structure or in the Common Stock of Kodak, the Committee shall also
be authorized to make such appropriate adjustments in the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the
Plan and any adjustments and/or modifications to outstanding Awards
as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. The maximum
number of shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be
automatically adjusted to the extent necessary to reflect any
dividend equivalents paid in the form of Common Stock.
b) Covered Employees. In no event shall the Award of any Participant
who is a Covered Employee be adjusted pursuant to Subsection 6.2(a)
to the extent it would cause such Award to fail to qualify as
"Performance-Based Compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code.
6.3 Maximum Number of Shares for Stock Awards, Performance Units and
Performance Shares
From the maximum number of shares available for issuance under the Plan under
Section 6.1, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock, $2.50 par value
per share, which shall be available for Awards granted in the form of Stock
Awards, performance units or performance shares (including those issued in
the form of Performance Awards) under the Plan during its term shall be

7.1 Purpose
For purposes of grants issued to Covered Employees, the provisions of this
Article 7 shall apply in addition to and, where necessary, in lieu of the

provide the Committee the ability to qualify the Stock Awards authorized
under Article 10, the performance units under Article 11, and the performance

contrary provision contained in Articles 10, 11 or 12.

Only Covered Employees shall be eligible to receive Performance Awards. The
Committee will, in its sole discretion, designate within the first 90 days of
a Performance Period (or, if longer, within the maximum period allowed under
Section 162(m) of the Code) which Covered Employees will be Participants for
such period. However, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for
a Performance Period shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to
receive an Award for the period. The determination as to whether or not such
Participant becomes entitled to an Award for such Performance Period shall be
decided solely in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7.
Moreover, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular
Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as
a Participant in any subsequent Performance Period and designation of one
Covered Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any other
Covered Employee as a Participant in such period or in any other period.
7.3 Discretion of Committee with Respect to Performance Awards
With regards to a particular Performance Period, the Committee shall have
full discretion to select the length of such Performance Period, the type(s)
of Performance Awards to be issued, the Performance Criteria that will be
used to establish the Performance Goal(s), the kind(s) and/or level(s) of the
Performance Goal(s), whether the Performance Goal(s) is(are) to apply to the
Company, Kodak, a Subsidiary, or any one or more subunits of the foregoing,
and the Performance Formula. Within the first 90 days of a Performance
Period (or, if longer, within the maximum period allowed under Section 162(m)
of the Code), the Committee shall, with regards to the Performance Awards to
be issued for such Performance Period, exercise its discretion with respect
to each of the matters enumerated in the immediately preceding sentence of
this Section 7.3 and record the same in writing.
7.4 Payment of Performance Awards
(a) Condition to Receipt of Performance Award. Unless otherwise
provided in the relevant Award Notice, a Participant must be
employed by the Company on the last day of a Performance Period to
be eligible for a Performance Award for such Performance Period.
(b) Limitation. A Participant shall be eligible to receive a
Performance Award for a Performance Period only to the extent that:
(1) the Performance Goals for such period are achieved; and (2) and
the Performance Formula as applied against such Performance Goals
determines that all or some portion of such Participant's
Performance Award has been earned for the Performance Period.
(c) Certification. Following the completion of a Performance Period,
the Committee shall meet to review and certify in writing whether,
and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance
Period have been achieved and, if so, to also calculate and certify
in writing the amount of the Performance Awards earned for the
period based upon the Performance Formula. The Committee shall then
determine the actual size of each Participant's Performance Award
for the Performance Period and, in so doing, shall apply Negative
Discretion, if and when it deems appropriate.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 116
(d) Negative Discretion. In determining the actual size of an
individual Performance Award for a Performance Period, the
Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Performance
Award earned under the Performance Formula for the Performance
Period through the use of Negative Discretion, if in its sole
judgment, such reduction or elimination is appropriate.
(e) Timing of Award Payments. The Awards granted for a Performance
Period shall be paid to Participants as soon as administratively
possible following completion of the certifications required by
Subsection 7.4(c).
(f) Noncompetition. No Participant shall receive payment for an Award
if, subsequent to the commencement of a Performance Period and
prior to the date the Awards for such period are paid, the
Participant engages in any of the conduct prohibited under Section
14.3.
7.5 Maximum Award Payable
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
maximum Performance Award payable to any one Participant under the Plan for a
Performance Period is 50,000 shares of Common Stock or, in the event the
Performance Award is paid in cash, the equivalent cash value thereof on the
Performance Award's Effective Date.
ARTICLE 8 -- STOCK OPTIONS
8.1 In General
Awards may be granted to Employees in the form of stock options. These stock
options may be incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Code or non-qualified stock options (i.e., stock options which are not
incentive stock options), or a combination of both. All Awards under the
Plan issued to Covered Employees in the form of stock options shall qualify
as "Performance-Based Compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code.
8.2 Terms and Conditions of Stock Options
An option shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such
times as may be determined by the Committee. The price at which Common Stock
may be purchased upon exercise of a stock option shall be not less than 100%
of the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined by the Committee,
on the Effective Date of the option's grant. Moreover, all options shall not
expire later than 10 years from the Effective Date of the option's grant.
Stock options shall not be repriced, i.e., there shall be no grant of a stock
option(s) to a Participant in exchange for a Participant's agreement to
cancellation of a higher-priced stock option(s) that was previously granted
to such Participant.
8.3 Restrictions Relating to Incentive Stock Options
Stock options issued in the form of incentive stock options shall, in
addition to being subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8.2, comply
with Section 422 of the Code. Accordingly, the aggregate fair market value
(determined at the time the option was granted) of the Common Stock with
respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time
by a Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or any other plan
of the Company) shall not exceed $100,000 (or such other limit as may be
required by the Code). From the maximum number of shares available for
issuance under the Plan under Section 6.1, the number of shares of Common
Stock that shall be available for incentive stock options granted under the
Plan is 16,000,000.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 117
8.4 Additional Terms and Conditions
The Committee may, by way of the Award Notice or otherwise, establish such
other terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any
stock option Award, provided they are not inconsistent with the Plan.
8.5 Exercise
Upon exercise, the option price of a stock option may be paid in cash, shares
of Common Stock, a combination of the foregoing, or such other consideration
as the Committee may deem appropriate. The Committee shall establish
appropriate methods for accepting Common Stock, whether restricted or
unrestricted, and may impose such conditions as it deems appropriate on the
use of such Common Stock to exercise a stock option. Subject to Section 19.9,
stock options awarded under the Plan may be exercised by way of the Company's
broker-assisted stock option exercise program, provided such program is
available at the time of the option's exercise. The Committee may permit a
Participant to satisfy any amounts required to be withheld under applicable
Federal, state and local tax laws, in effect from time to time, by electing
to have the Company withhold a portion of the shares of Common Stock to be
delivered for the payment of such taxes.
8.6 Maximum Award Payable
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
maximum number of shares for which stock options may be granted under the
Plan to any one Participant for a Performance Period is 200,000 shares of
Common Stock.
ARTICLE 9 -- STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
9.1 In General
Awards may be granted to Employees in the form of stock appreciation rights
("SARs"). An SAR may be granted in tandem with all or a portion of a related
stock option under the Plan ("Tandem SARs"), or may be granted separately
("Freestanding SARs"). A Tandem SAR may be granted either at the time of the
grant of the related stock option or at any time thereafter during the term
of the stock option. SARs shall entitle the recipient to receive a payment
equal to the appreciation in market value of a stated number of shares of
Common Stock from the exercise price to the market value on the date of
exercise. All Awards under the Plan issued to Covered Employees in the form
of an SAR shall qualify as "Performance-Based Compensation" under Section
162(m) of the Code.
9.2 Terms and Conditions of Tandem SARs
A Tandem SAR shall be exercisable to the extent, and only to the extent, that
the related stock option is exercisable, and the "exercise price" of such an
SAR (the base from which the value of the SAR is measured at its exercise)
shall be the option price under the related stock option. However, at no
time shall a Tandem SAR be issued if the option price of its related stock
option is less than the fair market value of the Common Stock, as determined
by the Committee, on the Effective Date of the Tandem SAR's grant. If a
related stock option is exercised as to some or all of the shares covered by
the Award, the related Tandem SAR, if any, shall be canceled automatically to
the extent of the number of shares covered by the stock option exercise.
Upon exercise of a Tandem SAR as to some or all of the shares covered by the
Award, the related stock option shall be canceled automatically to the extent
of the number of shares covered by such exercise, and such shares shall not
again be eligible for grant in accordance with Section 6.1. Moreover, all
Tandem SARs shall not expire later than 10 years from the Effective Date of
the SAR's grant.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 118
9.3 Terms and Conditions of Freestanding SARs
Freestanding SARs shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and
at such times as may be determined by the Committee. The exercise price of a
Freestanding SAR shall be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the
Common Stock, as determined by the Committee, on the Effective Date of the
Freestanding SAR's grant. Moreover, all Freestanding SARs shall not expire
later than 10 years from the Effective Date of the Freestanding SAR's grant.
9.4 Deemed Exercise
The Committee may provide that an SAR shall be deemed to be exercised at the
close of business on the scheduled expiration date of such SAR if at such
time the SAR by its terms remains exercisable and, if so exercised, would
result in a payment to the holder of such SAR.
9.5 Additional Terms and Conditions
The Committee may, by way of the Award Notice or otherwise, determine such
other terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any SAR
Award, provided they are not inconsistent with the Plan.
9.6 Maximum Award Payable
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
maximum number of shares for which SARs may be granted under the Plan to any
one Participant for a Performance Period is 200,000 shares of Common Stock.
ARTICLE 10 -- STOCK AWARDS
10.1 Grants
Awards may be granted in the form of Stock Awards. Stock Awards shall be
awarded in such numbers and at such times during the term of the Plan as the
Committee shall determine.
10.2 Award Restrictions
Stock Awards shall be subject to such terms, conditions, restrictions, and/or
limitations, if any, as the Committee deems appropriate including, but not by
way of limitation, restrictions on transferability and continued employment;
provided, however, they are not inconsistent with the Plan. The Committee
may modify or accelerate the delivery of a Stock Award under such
circumstances as it deems appropriate.
10.3 Rights as Shareholders
During the period in which any restricted shares of Common Stock are subject
to the restrictions imposed under Section 10.2, the Committee may, in its
sole discretion, grant to the Participant to whom such restricted shares have
been awarded all or any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such
shares, including, but not by way of limitation, the right to vote such
shares and, pursuant to Article 15, the right to receive dividends.
10.4 Evidence of Award
Any Stock Award granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the
Committee deems appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry
registration or issuance of a stock certificate or certificates.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 119
ARTICLE 11 -- PERFORMANCE UNITS
11.1 Grants
Awards may be granted in the form of performance units. Performance units,
as that term is used in this Plan, shall refer to Units valued by reference
to designated criteria established by the Committee, other than Common Stock.
11.2 Performance Criteria
Performance units shall be contingent on the attainment during a performance
period of certain performance objectives. The length of the performance
period, the performance objectives to be achieved during the performance
period, and the measure of whether and to what degree such objectives have
been attained shall be conclusively determined by the Committee in the
exercise of its absolute discretion. Performance objectives may be revised
by the Committee, at such times as it deems appropriate during the
performance period, in order to take into consideration any unforeseen events
or changes in circumstances.
11.3 Additional Terms and Conditions
The Committee may, by way of the Award Notice or otherwise, determine such
other terms, conditions, restrictions, and/or limitations, if any, of any
Award of performance units, provided they are not inconsistent with the Plan.
ARTICLE 12 -- PERFORMANCE SHARES
12.1 Grants
Awards may be granted in the form of performance shares. Performance shares,
as that term is used in this Plan, shall refer to shares of Common Stock or
Units which are expressed in terms of Common Stock.
12.2 Performance Criteria
Performance shares shall be contingent upon the attainment during a
performance period of certain performance objectives. The length of the
performance period, the performance objectives to be achieved during the
performance period, and the measure of whether and to what degree such
objectives have been attained shall be conclusively determined by the
Committee in the exercise of its absolute discretion. Performance objectives
may be revised by the Committee, at such times as it deems appropriate during
the performance period, in order to take into consideration any unforeseen
events or changes in circumstances.
12.3 Additional Terms and Conditions
The Committee may, by way of the Award Notice or otherwise, determine such
other terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, of any
Award of performance shares, provided they are not inconsistent with the
Plan.
ARTICLE 13 -- PERFORMANCE STOCK PROGRAM
13.1 Purpose
The purposes of the Performance Stock Program are: (a) to promote the
interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing a means to acquire
a proprietary interest in the Company to selected Key Employees who are in a
position to make a substantial contribution to the continued progress and
success of the Company; (b) to attract and retain qualified individuals to
serve as Employees in those positions; (c) to enhance long-term performance
of the Company by linking a meaningful portion of the compensation of
selected Key Employees to the achievement of specific long-term financial
objectives of the Company; and (d) to motivate and reward selected Key
Employees to undertake actions to increase the price of the Common Stock.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 120
13.2 Eligibility
Any Key Employee is eligible to participate in the Performance Stock Program.
Within the first 90 days of a Performance Cycle (or, if longer, within the
maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), the CEO will
recommend to the Committee, and from such recommendations the Committee will
select, those Key Employees who will be Participants for such Performance
Cycle. However, designation of a Key Employee as a Participant for a
Performance Cycle shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive
payment of an Award for the cycle. The determination as to whether or not
such Participant becomes entitled to payment of an Award for such Performance
Cycle shall be decided solely in accordance with the provisions of this
Article 13. Moreover, designation of a Key Employee as a Participant for a
particular Performance Cycle shall not require designation of such Key
Employee as a Participant in any subsequent Performance Cycle and designation
of one Key Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any
other Key Employee as a Participant in such Performance Cycle or in any other
Performance Cycle.
13.3 Description of Awards
Awards granted under the Performance Stock Program provide Participants with
the opportunity to earn shares of Common Stock, subject to the terms and
conditions of Section 13.8 below. Each Award granted under the Plan for a
Performance Cycle shall consist of a Target Award expressed as fixed number
of shares of Common Stock. In the event the Performance Goals for the
Performance Cycle are achieved, the Performance Formula shall determine, with
regards to a particular Participant, what percentage of the Participant's
Target Award for the Performance Cycle will be earned. All of the Awards
issued under the Performance Stock Program to Covered Employees are intended
to qualify as "Performance-Based Compensation" under Section 162(m) of the
Code.
13.4 Procedure for Determining Awards
Within the first 90 days of a Performance Cycle (or, if longer, within the
maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall
establish in writing for such Performance Cycle the following: the specific
Performance Criteria that will be used to establish the Performance Goal(s),
the kind(s) and/or level(s) of the Performance Goal(s), whether the
Performance Goal(s) is(are) to apply to the Company, Kodak, a Subsidiary, or
any one or more subunits of the foregoing, the amount of the Target Awards,
and the Performance Formula.
13.5 Payment of Awards
(a) Condition to Receipt of Awards. Except as provided in Section
13.7, a Participant must be employed by the Company on the
Performance Cycle's Award Payment Date to be eligible for an Award
for such Performance Cycle.
(b) Limitation. A Participant shall be eligible to receive an Award
for a Performance Cycle only if: (1) the Performance Goals for such
cycle are achieved; and (2) the Performance Formula as applied
against such Performance Goals determines that all or some portion
of the Participant's Target Award has been earned for the
Performance Period.
(c) Certification. Following the completion of a Performance Cycle,
the Committee shall meet to review and certify in writing whether,
and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance Cycle
have been achieved. If the Committee certifies that the
Performance Goals have been achieved, it shall, based upon
application of the Performance Formula to the Performance Goals for
such cycle, also calculate and certify in writing for each
Participant what percentage of the Participant's Target Award has
been earned for the cycle. The Committee shall then determine the
actual size of each Participant's Award for the Performance Cycle
and, in so doing, shall apply Negative Discretion, if and when it
deems appropriate.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 121
(d) Negative Discretion. In determining the actual size of an
individual Award to be paid for a Performance Cycle, the Committee
may, through the use of Negative Discretion, reduce or eliminate
the amount of the Award earned under the Performance Formula for
the Performance Cycle, if in its sole judgment, such reduction or
elimination is appropriate.
(e) Timing of Award Payments. The Awards granted by the Committee for
a Performance Cycle shall be paid to Participants on the Award
Payment Date for such Performance Cycle.
(f) New Participants. Participants who are employed by the Company
after the Committee's selection of Participants for the Performance
Cycle, as well as Key Employees who are selected by the Committee
to be Participants after such date, shall, in the event Awards are
paid for the Performance Cycle, only be entitled to a pro-rata
Award. The amount of the pro-rata Award shall be determined by
multiplying the Award the Participant would have otherwise been
paid if he or she had been a Participant for the entire Performance
Cycle by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of full
months he or she was eligible to participate in the Performance
Stock Program during the Performance Cycle over the total number of
full months in the Performance Cycle. For purposes of this
calculation, a partial month of participation shall: (1) be treated
as a full month of participation to the extent a Participant
participates in the Performance Stock Program on 15 or more days of
such month; and (2) not be taken into consideration to the extent
the Participant participates in the Performance Stock Program for
less than 15 days of such month.
(g) Noncompetition. No Participant shall receive payment for an Award
if, subsequent to the commencement of the Performance Cycle and
prior to the Award Payment Date for such cycle, the Participant
engages in the conduct prohibited under Section 14.3.
13.6 Maximum Award Payable
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan to the contrary, the
maximum Award payable to any one Participant under the Plan for a Performance
Cycle is 50,000 shares of Common Stock.
13.7 Termination of Employment During Performance Cycle
In the event a Participant terminates employment due to death, Disability,
Retirement or termination of employment for an Approved Reason prior to the
Award Payment Date for a Performance Cycle, the Participant shall receive, if
Awards are paid for such Performance Cycle and if he or she complies with the
requirements of Subsection 13.5(g) through the Award Payment Date, a pro-rata
Award. The amount of the pro-rata Award shall be determined by multiplying
the Award the Participant would have otherwise been paid if he or she had
been a Participant through the Award Payment Date for the Performance Cycle
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months he or she
was a Participant during such Performance Cycle over the total number of full
months in the Performance Cycle. For purposes of this calculation, a partial
month of participation shall: (1) be treated as a full month of participation
to the extent a Participant participates in the Performance Stock Program on
15 or more days of such month; and (2) not be taken into consideration to the
extent the Participant participates in the Performance Stock Program for less
than 15 days of such month. Such pro-rata Award shall be paid in the form of
shares of Common Stock, not subject to any restrictions, limitations or
escrow requirements. In the event of Disability, Retirement or termination
for an Approved Reason, the pro-rata Award shall be paid directly to the
Participant and, in the event of death, to the Participant's estate.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 122
13.8 Awards
On the Award Payment Date for a Performance Cycle, the Committee shall issue
to each Participant the Award, in the form of shares of Common Stock, he or
she has earned for such Performance Cycle. Such shares of Common Stock shall
be subject to such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the
Committee, in its sole judgment, determines.
ARTICLE 14 -- PAYMENT OF AWARDS
14.1 In General
Absent a Plan provision to the contrary, payment of Awards may, at the
discretion of the Committee, be made in cash, Common Stock, a combination of
cash and Common Stock, or any other form of property as the Committee shall
determine. In addition, payment of Awards may include such terms,
conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as the Committee deems
appropriate, including, in the case of Awards paid in the form of Common
Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions; provided, however,
such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations are not inconsistent
with the Plan. Further, payment of Awards may be made in the form of a lump
sum or installments, as determined by the Committee.
14.2 Termination of Employment
If a Participant's employment with the Company terminates for a reason other
than death, Disability, Retirement, or any Approved Reason, all unexercised,
unearned, and/or unpaid Awards, including, but not by way of limitation,
Awards earned but not yet paid, all unpaid dividends and dividend
equivalents, and all interest accrued on the foregoing shall be canceled or
forfeited, as the case may be, unless the Participant's Award Notice provides
otherwise. The Committee shall, notwithstanding Sections 4.4 and 19.11 to
the contrary, have the authority to promulgate rules and regulations to
determine the treatment of an Award under the Plan in the event of the
Participant's death, Disability, Retirement or termination for an Approved
Reason, provided, however, in the case of Awards issued under the Restricted
Stock Program, such rules and regulations are consistent with Section 13.7.
14.3 Noncompetition
Unless the Award Notice specifies otherwise, a Participant shall forfeit all
unexercised, unearned, and/or unpaid Awards, including, but not by way of
limitation, Awards earned but not yet paid, all unpaid dividends and dividend
equivalents, and all interest, if any, accrued on the foregoing if, (i) in
the opinion of the Committee, the Participant, without the prior written
consent of Kodak, engages directly or indirectly in any manner or capacity as
principal, agent, partner, officer, director, stockholder, employee, or
otherwise, in any business or activity competitive with the business
conducted by Kodak or any Subsidiary; (ii) at any time divulges to any person
or any entity other than the Company any trade secrets, methods, processes or
the proprietary or confidential information of the Company; or (iii) the
Participant performs any act or engages in any activity which in the opinion
of the CEO is inimical to the best interests of the Company. For purposes of
this Section 14.3, a Participant shall not be deemed a stockholder if the
Participant's record and beneficial ownership amount to not more than 1% of
the outstanding capital stock of any company subject to the periodic and
other reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 123
ARTICLE 15 -- DIVIDEND AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS
If an Award is granted in the form of a Stock Award, stock option, or
performance share, or in the form of any other stock-based grant, the
Committee may choose, at the time of the grant of the Award or any time
thereafter up to the time of the Award's payment, to include as part of such
Award an entitlement to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, subject to
such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as the
Committee may establish. Dividends and dividend equivalents shall be paid in
such form and manner (i.e., lump sum or installments), and at such time(s) as
the Committee shall determine. All dividends or dividend equivalents which
are not paid currently may, at the Committee's discretion, accrue interest,
be reinvested into additional shares of Common Stock or, in the case of
dividends or dividend equivalents credited in connection with performance
shares, be credited as additional performance shares and paid to the
Participant if and when, and to the extent that, payment is made pursuant to
such Award. The total number of shares available for grant under Section 6.1
shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend equivalents that
are reinvested into additional shares of Common Stock or credited as
additional performance shares.
ARTICLE 16 -- DEFERRAL OF AWARDS
At the discretion of the Committee, payment of any Award, dividend, or
dividend equivalent, or any portion thereof, may be deferred by a Participant
until such time as the Committee may establish. All such deferrals shall be
accomplished by the delivery of a written, irrevocable election by the
Participant prior to the time established by the Committee for such purpose,
on a form provided by the Company. Further, all deferrals shall be made in
accordance with administrative guidelines established by the Committee to
ensure that such deferrals comply with all applicable requirements of the
Code. Deferred payments shall be paid in a lump sum or installments, as
determined by the Committee. Deferred Awards may also be credited with
interest, at such rates to be determined by the Committee, and, with respect
to those deferred Awards denominated in the form of Common Stock, with
dividends or dividend equivalents.
ARTICLE 17 -- CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP
17.1 Background
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan, including, but not
limited to, Sections 4.4 and 19.11, the provisions of this Article 17 shall
control over any contrary provision. Upon a Change In Ownership: (i) the
terms of this Article 17 shall immediately become operative, without further
action or consent by any person or entity; (ii) all terms, conditions,
restrictions, and limitations in effect on any unexercised, unearned, unpaid,
and/or deferred Award, or any other outstanding Award, shall immediately
lapse as of the date of such event; (iii) no other terms, conditions,
restrictions and/or limitations shall be imposed upon any Awards on or after
such date, and in no circumstance shall an Award be forfeited on or after
such date; and (iv) except in those instances where a prorated Awards is
required to be paid under this Article 17, all unexercised, unvested,
unearned, and/or unpaid Awards or any other outstanding Awards shall
automatically become one hundred percent (100%) vested immediately.
17.2 Dividends and Dividend Equivalents
Upon a Change In Ownership, all unpaid dividends and dividend equivalents and
all interest accrued thereon, if any, shall be treated and paid under this
Article 17 in the identical manner and time as the Award under which such
dividends or dividend equivalents have been credited. For example, if upon a
Change In Ownership, an Award under this Article 17 is to be paid in a
prorated fashion, all unpaid dividends and dividend equivalents with respect
to such Award shall be paid according to the same formula used to determine
the amount of such prorated Award.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 124
17.3 Treatment of Performance Units and Performance Shares
If a Change In Ownership occurs during the term of one or more performance
periods for which the Committee has granted performance units and/or
performance shares (including those issued as Performance Awards under
Article 7), the term of each such performance period (hereinafter a "current
performance period") shall immediately terminate upon the occurrence of such
event. Upon a Change In Ownership, for each "current performance period" and
each completed performance period for which the Committee has not on or
before such date made a determination as to whether and to what degree the
performance objectives for such period have been attained (hereinafter a
"completed performance period"), it shall be assumed that the performance
objectives have been attained at a level of one hundred percent (100%) or the
equivalent thereof.
A Participant in one or more "current performance periods" shall be
considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive, a prorated
portion of the Awards previously granted to him for each such performance
period. Such prorated portion shall be determined by multiplying the number
of performance shares or performance units, as the case may be, granted to
the Participant by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of
whole months that have elapsed since the beginning of the performance period,
and the denominator of which is the total number of full months in such
performance period. For purposes of this calculation, a partial month shall
be treated as a full month to the extent 15 or more days in such month have
elapsed.
A Participant in one or more "completed performance periods" shall be
considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive all the
performance shares or performance units, as the case may be, previously
granted to him during each such performance period.
17.4 Treatment of Awards under Performance Stock Program
Upon a Change in Ownership, any Participant of the Performance Stock Program,
whether or not he or she is still employed by the Company, shall be paid, as
soon as practicable but in no event later than 90 days after the Change in
Ownership, a pro-rata Award for each Performance Cycle in which Participant
was selected to participate and during which the Change in Ownership occurs.
The amount of the pro-rata Award shall be determined by multiplying the
Target Award for such Performance Cycle for Participants in the same wage
grade as the Participant by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of full months in the Performance Cycle prior to the date of the
Change in Ownership and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
full months in the Performance Cycle. For purposes of this calculation, a
partial month shall be treated as a full month to the extent 15 or more days
in such month have elapsed. To the extent Target Awards have not yet been
established for the Performance Cycle, the Target Awards for the immediately
preceding Performance Cycle shall be used.
17.5 Valuation of Awards
Upon a Change In Ownership, all outstanding Units of Common Stock,
Freestanding SARs, stock options (including incentive stock options), Stock
Awards (including those issued as Performance Awards under Article 7),
performance shares (including those earned as a result of the application of
Section 17.3 above), and all other outstanding stock-based Awards (including
those earned as a result of the application of Section 17.4 above and those
granted by the Committee pursuant to its authority under Subsection 4.2(m)
hereof), shall be valued and cashed out on the basis of the Change In Control
Price.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 125
17.6 Payment of Awards
Upon a Change In Ownership, any Participant, whether or not he or she is
still employed by the Company, shall be paid, in a single lump-sum cash
payment, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 90 days after the
Change In Ownership, all of his or her Units of Common Stock, Freestanding
SARs, stock options (including incentive stock options), Stock Awards
(including those issued as Performance Awards under Article 7), performance
units and shares (including those earned as a result of the application of
Section 17.3 above), all other outstanding stock-based Awards (including
those earned as a result of the application of Section 17.4 above and those
granted by the Committee pursuant to its authority under Subsection 4.2(m)
hereof), and all other outstanding Awards.
17.7 Deferred Awards
Upon a Change In Ownership, all Awards deferred by a Participant under
Article 16 hereof, but for which he or she has not received payment as of
such date, shall be paid in a single lump-sum cash payment as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the Change In
Ownership. For purposes of making such payment, the value of all Awards
which are stock based shall be determined by the Change In Control Price.
17.8 Section 16 of Exchange Act
(Intentionally Omitted)
17.9 Miscellaneous
Upon a Change In Ownership, (i) the provisions of Sections 14.2, 14.3 and
19.3 hereof shall become null and void and of no further force and effect;
and (ii) no action, including, but not by way of limitation, the amendment,
suspension, or termination of the Plan, shall be taken which would affect the
rights of any Participant or the operation of the Plan with respect to any
Award to which the Participant may have become entitled hereunder on or prior
to the date of such action or as a result of such Change In Ownership.
ARTICLE 18 -- CHANGE IN CONTROL
18.1 Background
Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Plan, including, but not
limited to, Sections 4.4 and 19.11, the provisions of this Article 18 shall
control over any contrary provision. All Participants shall be eligible for
the treatment afforded by this Article 18 if their employment terminates
within two years following a Change In Control, unless the termination is due
to (i) death, (ii) Disability, (iii) Cause, (iv) resignation other than (A)
resignation from a declined reassignment to a job that is not reasonably
equivalent in responsibility or compensation (as defined in Kodak's
Termination Allowance Plan), or that is not in the same geographic area (as
defined in Kodak's Termination Allowance Plan), or (B) resignation within 30
days following a reduction in base pay, or (v) Retirement.
18.2 Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions
If a Participant is eligible for treatment under this Article 18, (i) all of
the terms, conditions, restrictions, and limitations in effect on any of his
or her unexercised, unearned, unpaid and/or deferred Awards shall immediately
lapse as of the date of his or her termination of employment; (ii) no other
terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations shall be imposed upon any
of his or her Awards on or after such date, and in no event shall any of his
or her Awards be forfeited on or after such date; and (iii) except in those
instances where a prorated Award is required to be paid under this Article
18, all of his or her unexercised, unvested, unearned and/or unpaid Awards
shall automatically become one hundred percent (100%) vested immediately upon
his or her termination of employment.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 126
18.3 Dividends and Dividend Equivalents
If a Participant is eligible for treatment under this Article 18, all of his
or her unpaid dividends and dividend equivalents and all interest accrued
thereon, if any, shall be treated and paid under this Article 18 in the
identical manner and time as the Award under which such dividends or dividend
equivalents have been credited.
18.4 Treatment of Performance Units and Performance Shares
If a Participant holding either performance units or performance shares
(including those issued as Performance Awards under Article 7) is terminated
under the conditions described in Section 18.1 above, the provisions of this
Section 18.4 shall determine the manner in which such performance units
and/or performance shares shall be paid to the Participant. For purposes of
making such payment, each "current performance period," as that term is
defined in Section 17.3, shall be treated as terminating upon the date of the
Participant's termination of employment, and for each such "current
performance period" and each "completed performance period," as that term is
defined in Section 17.3, it shall be assumed that the performance objectives
have been attained at a level of one hundred percent (100%) or the equivalent
thereof. If the Participant is participating in one or more "current
performance periods," he or she shall be considered to have earned and,
therefore, be entitled to receive that prorated portion of the Awards
previously granted to him for each such performance period, as determined in
accordance with the formula established in Section 17.3 hereof. A
Participant in one or more "completed performance periods" shall be
considered to have earned and, therefore, be entitled to receive all the
performance shares and performance units previously granted to him during
each performance period.
18.5 Treatment of Awards under Performance Stock Program
If a Participant of the Performance Stock Program is eligible for treatment
under this Article 18, he or she shall be paid, as soon as practicable but in
no event later than 90 days after the date of his or her termination of
employment, a pro-rata Award for each Performance Cycle in which Participant
was selected to participate and during which the Change in Ownership occurs.
The amount of the pro-rata Award shall be determined by multiplying the
Target Award for such Performance Cycle for Participants in the same wage
grade as the Participant by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of full months in the Performance Cycle prior to the date of his or
her termination of employment and the denominator of which shall be the total
number of full months in the Performance Cycle. For purposes of this
calculation, a partial month shall be treated as a full month to the extent
15 or more days in such month have elapsed. To the extent Target Awards have
not yet been established for the Performance Cycle, the Target Awards for the
immediately preceding Performance Cycle shall be used.
18.6 Valuation of Awards
If a Participant is eligible for treatment under this Article 18, his or her
Awards shall be valued and cashed out in accordance with the provisions of
Section 17.5.
18.7 Payment of Awards
If a Participant is eligible for treatment under this Article 18, he or she
shall be paid, in a single lump-sum cash payment, as soon as practicable but
in no event later than 90 days after the date of his or her termination of
employment, all of his or her Units of Common Stock, Freestanding SARs, stock
options (including incentive stock options), Stock Awards (including those
issued as Performance Awards under Article 7), performance units and shares
(including those earned as a result of the application of Section 18.4
above), all other outstanding stock-based Awards (including those earned as a
result of the application of Section 18.5 above and those granted by the
Committee pursuant to its authority under Subsection 4.2(m) hereof), and all
other outstanding Awards.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 127
18.8 Deferred Awards
If a Participant is eligible for treatment under this Article 18, all of his
or her deferred Awards for which payment has not been received as of the date
of his or her termination of employment shall be paid to the Participant in a
single lump-sum cash payment as soon as practicable, but in no event later
than 90 days after the date of the Participant's termination. For purposes
of making such payment, the value of all Awards which are stock based shall
be determined by the Change In Control Price.
18.9 Section 16 of Exchange Act
(Intentionally Omitted)
18.10 Miscellaneous
Upon a Change In Control, (i) the provisions of Sections 14.2, 14.3 and 19.3
hereof shall become null and void and of no force and effect insofar as they
apply to a Participant who has been terminated under the conditions described
in Section 18.1 above; and (ii) no action, including, but not by way of
limitation, the amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan, shall be
taken which would affect the rights of any Participant or the operation of
the Plan with respect to any Award to which the Participant may have become
entitled hereunder on or prior to the date of the Change In Control or to
which he or she may become entitled as a result of such Change In Control.
18.11 Legal Fees
Kodak shall pay all legal fees and related expenses incurred by a Participant
in seeking to obtain or enforce any payment, benefit or right he or she may
be entitled to under the Plan after a Change In Control; provided, however,
the Participant shall be required to repay any such amounts to Kodak to the
extent a court of competent jurisdiction issues a final and non-appealable
order setting forth the determination that the position taken by the
Participant was frivolous or advanced in bad faith.
ARTICLE 19 -- MISCELLANEOUS
19.1 Nonassignability
No Awards or any other payment under the Plan shall be subject in any manner
to alienation, anticipation, sale, transfer (except by will or the laws of
descent and distribution), assignment, pledge, or encumbrance, nor shall any
Award be payable to or exercisable by anyone other than the Participant to
whom it was granted.
19.2 Withholding Taxes
The Company shall be entitled to deduct from any payment under the Plan,
regardless of the form of such payment, the amount of all applicable income
and employment taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such
payment or may require the Participant to pay to it such tax prior to and as
a condition of the making of such payment. In accordance with any applicable
administrative guidelines it establishes, the Committee may allow a
Participant to pay the amount of taxes required by law to be withheld from an
Award by withholding from any payment of Common Stock due as a result of such
Award, or by permitting the Participant to deliver to the Company, shares of
Common Stock having a fair market value, as determined by the Committee,
equal to the amount of such required withholding taxes.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 128
19.3 Amendments to Awards
The Committee may at any time unilaterally amend any unexercised, unearned,
or unpaid Award, including, but not by way of limitation, Awards earned but
not yet paid, to the extent it deems appropriate; provided, however, that any
such amendment which, in the opinion of the Committee, is adverse to the
Participant shall require the Participant's consent.
19.4 Regulatory Approvals and Listings
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, the Company
shall have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates of Common Stock
evidencing Stock Awards or any other Award resulting in the payment of Common
Stock prior to (i) the obtaining of any approval from any governmental agency
which the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable, (ii) the admission of such shares to listing on the stock exchange
on which the Common Stock may be listed, and (iii) the completion of any
registration or other qualification of said shares under any state or Federal
law or ruling of any governmental body which the Company shall, in its sole
discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.
19.5 No Right to Continued Employment or Grants
Participation in the Plan shall not give any Employee any right to remain in
the employ of Kodak or any Subsidiary. Kodak or, in the case of employment
with a Subsidiary, the Subsidiary, reserves the right to terminate any
Employee at any time. Further, the adoption of this Plan shall not be deemed
to give any Employee or any other individual any right to be selected as a
Participant or to be granted an Award.
19.6 Amendment/Termination
The Committee may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time with or without
prior notice. In addition, the Committee may, from time to time and with or
without prior notice, amend the Plan in any manner, but may not without
shareholder approval adopt any amendment which would require the vote of the
shareholders of Kodak pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code, but only
insofar as such amendment affects Covered Employees.
19.7 Governing Law
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York, except as superseded by applicable Federal Law.
19.8 No Right, Title, or Interest in Company Assets
No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder as a result of
participation in the Plan until the date of issuance of a stock certificate
in his or her name, and, in the case of restricted shares of Common Stock,
such rights are granted to the Participant under the Plan. To the extent any
person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under the Plan,
such rights shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured creditor of
the Company and the Participant shall not have any rights in or against any
specific assets of the Company. All of the Awards granted under the Plan
shall be unfunded.
19.9 Section 16 of the Exchange Act
In order to avoid any Exchange Act violations, the Committee may, from time
to time, impose additional restrictions upon an Award, including but not
limited to, restrictions regarding tax withholdings and restrictions
regarding the Participant's ability to exercise Awards under the Company's
broker-assisted exercise program.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 129
19.10 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences
No person connected with the Plan in any capacity, including, but not limited
to, Kodak and its Subsidiaries and their directors, officers, agents and
employees makes any representation, commitment, or guarantee that any tax
treatment, including, but not limited to, Federal, state and local income,
estate and gift tax treatment, will be applicable with respect to amounts
deferred under the Plan, or paid to or for the benefit of a Participant under
the Plan, or that such tax treatment will apply to or be available to a
Participant on account of participation in the Plan.
19.11 Compliance with Section 162(m)
If any provision of the Plan, other than the application of those contained
in Articles 17 or 18 hereof, would cause the Awards granted to a Covered
Person not to qualify as "Performance-Based Compensation" under Section
162(m) of the Code, that provision, insofar as it pertains to the Covered
Person, shall be severed from, and shall be deemed not to be a part of, this
Plan, but the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.
19.12 Other Benefits
No Award granted under the Plan shall be considered compensation for purposes
of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company nor affect any
benefits or compensation under any other benefit or compensation plan of the
Company now or subsequently in effect.

exercise program to the extent such program is available at the time of such

Exhibit (10) O.
FIRST AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT (the "First Amendment"), made as of the 21st day of
January, 1997, is intended to amend a certain Employment Agreement,
hereinafter the "Employment Agreement," dated as of the 11th day of February,
1994 by and between Harry L. Kavetas (the "Executive") and the Eastman Kodak
Company (the "Company");
WHEREAS, Kodak maintains a welfare benefit plan, entitled the "Family
Protection Program" (hereinafter "FPP"); and
WHEREAS, one of the welfare benefits provided to certain eligible
participants of the FPP is a Post-Retirement Survivor Income Benefit
(hereinafter "Post-Retirement SIB"); and
WHEREAS, in general, the Post-Retirement SIB provides to the eligible
survivors of a participant a percentage of the participant's retirement
income benefit after the participant's death; and
WHEREAS, the Employment Agreement contains certain terms and conditions
regarding the Executive's eligibility for and participation in the Company's
benefits plans; and
WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company desire to clarify and amend the
Employment Agreement insofar as it pertains to the Executive's eligibility
for and coverage under the Post-Retirement SIB; and
WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company further desire to clarify the
Executive's eligibility for and coverage under the retiree welfare benefits
provided by the Company; and
WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company additionally desire to clarify
several other provisions of Section 8 of the Employment Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the mutual promises and conditions contained
herein, the parties hereto do hereby agree that the Employment Agreement
shall be amended as follows:
1. The Employment Agreement is amended to add the following as
new subsection (e) to Section 8 entitled "Supplemental Pension":
(e) Post-Retirement Survivor Income Benefit.
(i) Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to
the contrary, the Executive shall be treated as if he were an
eligible participant for the Post-Retirement Survivor Income
Benefit (hereinafter "Post-Retirement SIB") as set forth in
the Company's Family Protection Program in effect on the date
of the Agreement (the "FPP").
(ii) The benefit, if any, payable by virtue of the terms of this
Section 8(e) shall, except as otherwise specifically provided
in this Section 8(e), be paid as if the benefit were payable
under the terms and conditions of the FPP as in effect on the
date of the Agreement.
(iii) The amount of the Executive's Post-Retirement SIB coverage
shall be calculated pursuant to Section 7.2 of FPP; except,
however, that for purposes of Step 1, the Executive's "full
accrued (not reduced for early retirement) monthly retirement
income benefit under KRIP" shall be calculated by taking into
account any deemed service credited to the Executive under
Section 8(b), as amended.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 146
(iv) The benefit, if any, payable by virtue of this Section 8(e)
shall be paid out of the Company's general assets, not subject
to offset for any benefits from a prior employer, and not
funded in any manner.
2. The last sentence of subsection (a) of Section 8, entitled
"Supplemental Pension," is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
For purposes of this Section 8, "supplements thereto" shall include the
Kodak Excess Retirement Income Plan and the Kodak Unfunded Retirement
Income Plan.
3. The last sentence of subsection (b) of Section 8, entitled
"Supplemental Pension," is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
(In the event of a sixth year of employment, the Executive shall be
credited with two more years of service, one year of actual service and
one year of additional, deemed service, bringing the Executive's total
years of service to 32.)
4. The last sentence of subsection (c) of Section 7 of the
Employment Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.
5. The Employment Agreement is amended to add the following as
new subsection (d) to Section 7 entitled "Employee Benefit Programs":
(d) Retiree Welfare Benefits.
(i) Subject to Section 7(d)(ii), for purposes of any retiree
welfare benefit of the Company for which the Executive may be
eligible, the Executive shall for all plan purposes be
credited with any deemed service credited to him under Section
8(b).
(ii) The terms of Section 7(d)(i) shall apply with regards to a
particular Company-provided retiree welfare benefit if at any
time, and from time to time, during the Executive's
retirement, he is not eligible for a comparable retiree
welfare benefit under any plan of a prior employer. For
purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, whether a
retiree welfare benefit under any plan of a prior employer is
comparable to a Company-provided welfare benefit shall be
measured in terms of the following factors: (1) its
availability to the Executive, (2) the scope and amount of its
benefit coverage, and (3) its cost to the Executive. If in
measuring a prior employer's retiree welfare benefit against a
similar Company-provided retiree welfare benefit (determined
as if Section 7(d)(i) applied), one or more of the foregoing
factors is determined not to be comparable, then the retiree
welfare benefits themselves shall not be considered
comparable. If a prior employer of the Executive maintains a
retiree welfare benefit for which the Executive is eligible,
but it is determined that such retiree welfare benefit is not,
under the terms of this Section 7(d)(ii), comparable to a
Company-provided retiree welfare benefit, then the terms of
Section 7(d)(i) shall apply irrespective of whether the
Executive determines to maintain coincident coverage under the
retiree welfare benefit of such prior employer.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 147
6. The Employment Agreement is amended to add the following as
new subsection (e) to Section 7 entitled "Employee Benefit Programs":
(e) Survivor Welfare Benefits.
(i) Subject to Section 7(e)(ii) below, for purposes of any
survivor welfare benefit of the Company for which any spouse,
child, parent, or survivor (collectively "Survivor") may be
eligible under the relevant welfare benefit plan, the
Executive's service with the Company shall for all plan
purposes be calculated by taking into account any deemed
service credited to the Executive under Section 8(b).
(ii) The terms of Section 7(e)(i) above shall apply with regards to
a particular Company-provided survivor welfare benefit if at
any time, and from time to time, the Survivor is not eligible
for a comparable survivor welfare benefit under any plan of a
prior employer. For purposes of the immediately preceding
sentence, whether a survivor welfare benefit under any plan of
a prior employer is comparable to a Company-provided survivor
welfare benefit shall be measured in terms of the following
factors: (1) its availability to the Survivor, (2) the scope
and amount of its benefit coverage, and (3) its cost to the
Survivor. If in measuring a prior employer's survivor welfare
benefit against a similar Company-provided survivor welfare
benefit (determined as of Section 7(e)(i) applied), one or
more of the foregoing factors is determined not to be
comparable, then the survivor welfare benefits themselves
shall not be considered comparable. If a prior employer of
the Executive maintains a survivor welfare benefit for which
the Survivor is eligible, but it is determined that such
survivor welfare benefit is not, under the terms of this
Section 7(e)(ii), comparable to a Company-provided survivor
welfare benefit, then the terms of Section 7(e)(i) shall apply
irrespective of whether the Survivor determines to maintain
coincident coverage under the survivor welfare benefit of such
prior employer.
7. All of the remaining terms of the Agreement, to the extent
they are not inconsistent with the terms hereof, shall remain in full force
and effect, without amendment or modification.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this First
Amendment as of the date and year first above written.

terms of KRIP prior to February 11, 1999, with six years of
service (one year of actual service and five years of additional,
deemed service) and, for each year of service earned under the
terms of KRIP on or after February 11, 1999 and prior to February
11, 2001, with four and one half years of service (one year of
actual service and three and one half years of additional, deemed
service). Thus, in the event the Executive remains employed by
the Company throughout the Term of Employment, he shall be
credited in total with thirty nine years of service (seven years
of actual service and thirty two years of additional, deemed
service) for the foregoing plan purposes. In the event the
Executive's employment terminates pursuant to Section 11(a),
11(b) or 11(d) between February 10, 1999 and February 10, 2001,
the credited service (i.e., both the actual and the deemed) for
the year in which the termination occurs shall be prorated based
on the number of days of employment in that year divided by 365.
6. All of the remaining terms of the Employment Agreement, to the extent
they are not inconsistent with the terms hereof, shall remain in full
force and effect, without amendment or modification.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Second
Amendment as of the date and year first above written.

award restricted shares of the Company's Common Stock to those Key
Employees as the Committee in its discretion may determine, subject to
such terms, conditions and restrictions as it deems appropriate.
2. Award. Effective March , 1997, (the "Grant Date"), the Committee
granted, to Harry L. Kavetas (the "Participant") an Award of ten
thousand (10,000) restricted shares of Common Stock ("Restricted
Shares"). This Award is granted under the Plan, subject to the terms
and conditions of the Plan and those set forth in this Notice of Award
of Restricted Stock ("Award Notice").
3. Terms and Conditions of Restricted Shares. The following terms and
conditions shall apply to the Restricted Shares:
(a) Issuance. The Restricted Shares awarded hereunder to the
Participant shall be promptly issued and a certificate(s) for
such shares shall be issued in the Participant's name. The
Participant shall thereupon be a shareowner of all the shares
represented by the certificate(s). As such, the Participant
shall have all the rights of a shareowner with respect to such
shares, including but not limited to, the right to vote such
shares and to receive all dividends and other distributions
(subject to Section 3(b)) paid with respect to them, provided,
however, that the shares shall be subject to the restrictions in
Section 3(d). The stock certificates representing the Restricted
Shares shall be imprinted with a legend stating that the shares
represented thereby are restricted shares subject to the terms
and conditions of this Award Notice and, as such, may not be
sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, or
otherwise disposed of except in accordance with this Award
Notice. Each transfer agent for the Common Stock shall be
instructed to like effect in respect of such shares. In aid of
such restrictions, the Participant shall immediately upon receipt
of the certificate(s) therefor, deposit such certificate(s)
together with a stock power or other like instrument of transfer,
appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company.
(b) Stock Splits, Dividends, etc. If under Section 6.2 of the Plan,
entitled "Adjustment to Shares," the Participant, as the owner of
the Restricted Shares, shall be entitled to new, additional, or
different shares of stock or securities, the certificate or
certificates for, or other evidences of, such new, additional, or
different shares or securities, together with a stock power or
other instrument of transfer appropriately endorsed in blank,
shall be imprinted with a legend as provided in Section 3(a)
above, deposited by the Participant with the Company as provided
for therein, and subject to the restrictions provided for in
Section 3(d) below.
(c) Restriction Period. The "Restriction Period" for the Restricted
Shares shall begin on the Grant Date and terminate, subject to

Restricted Shares are subject are:
(i) Nonalienation. During the Restriction Period, the
Restricted Shares shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred,
assigned, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of
except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any
attempt by the Participant to dispose of a Restricted Share
in any such manner shall result in the immediate forfeiture
of such share and any other Restricted Shares then held by
the Company on the Participant's behalf.
(ii) Continuous Employment. Except as set forth in Section 4
below, if the Participant's employment is terminated for any
reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, before the
Restriction Period ends, he shall immediately forfeit all of
the Restricted Shares.
(e) Lapse of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in Section
3(d) above, with respect to the Restricted Shares held by the
Company on behalf of the Participant, will, unless the Restricted
Shares are forfeited sooner, lapse upon the earlier of:
(i) expiration of the Restriction Period; or
(ii) the termination of the Participant's employment due to
Illness or under Section 11(a), 11(b), or 11(d) of his
Employment Agreement with the Company dated February 11,
1994, as amended through March 1, 1997 (the "Employment
Agreement").
4. Termination of Employment. Subject to Section 3(e) above, if the
Participant's employment terminates pursuant to Section 11(c) or 11(e)
of the Employment Agreement at any time before the Restriction Period
ends, the Participant shall immediately forfeit all of the Restricted
Shares then held on his behalf by the Company.
5. Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. Upon the lapse of the Restriction
Period, the Company shall, unless the Restricted Shares are sooner
forfeited, promptly deliver to the Participant a stock certificate,
free of any restrictions including those set forth in Section 3(d)
above. Subject to any shares that are withheld pursuant to Section 6
below, the certificate shall be for that number of shares of Common
Stock which, by virtue of the lapse of such Restriction Period, are no
longer subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3(d).
6. Withholding. The Company shall deduct from the Restricted Shares the
amount of all applicable income and employment taxes required to be
withheld unless the Participant makes other arrangements with the
Company for the timely payment of such taxes.
7. Definitions.
(a) Any defined term used in this Award Notice, other than that set
forth in Section 7(b) below, shall have the same meaning for
purposes of this document as that ascribed to it under the terms
of the Plan.
(b) The following definition shall apply to this Award Notice:
(i) Illness. A termination of employment will be for "Illness"
if the Participant voluntarily terminates his employment
following a continuous period of at least 90 days during

assigned duties and responsibilities of his position with
the Company due to illness, disease or injury and the
condition is verified by such examinations and/or tests,
performed by a mutually agreeable doctor; provided, however,
that the Company may, if it reasonably so determines,
request additional examinations and/or tests by mutually
agreeable doctor(s).
8. Effect of Award Notice. This Award Notice, including its reference to
the Plan, constitutes the entire understanding between the Company and
the Participant concerning the Award and supersedes any prior notices,
letters, statements or other documents issued by the Company relating
to the Award and all prior agreements and understandings between the
Company and the Participant, whether written or oral, concerning the
Award.

and discretion, subject to the provisions of the Plan, to interpret,
construe and implement this Award Notice, to prescribe, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to it, and to make all other
determinations necessary, appropriate or advisable for its
administration. All such Committee determinations shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon any and all interested parties and their
heirs, successors, and personal representatives.
10. Impact on Benefits. The Restricted Shares (either at the date of
their grant or at the time their restrictions lapse) shall not be
includible as compensation or earnings for purposes of any other
compensation or benefit plan offered by the Company.
11. Miscellaneous.

been prepared for convenience and reference only and shall not
control, affect the meaning, or be taken as the interpretation of
any provision of the Award Notice.

Plan, and its interpretation and application, will be governed
and controlled by the laws of the State of New York, except as
superseded by applicable Federal Law.
(c) Amendment. The Committee may, from time to time, amend this
Award Notice in any manner; provided, however, that any such
amendment which is adverse to the Participant shall require the
Participant's consent.

COMPENSATION PLAN (2)
APPROVED BY:
Action of the
Executive Compensation and
Development Committee
(1) Actual size of the grant of nonqualified stock option shall be reduced
by the number of shares that shall be granted concurrently under a
stock option intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Such option grant shall be
in substantially the same form as this grant except to the extent
necessary to constitute an incentive stock option under Section 422.
(2) Recognizing that the maximum number of options that may be granted to
a single participant under the 1995 Omnibus Plan in given year is
200,000, some of the options will have to be granted under the terms
of the 1997 Stock Option Plan. Given this, the 1997 Stock Option Plan
will have to be amended by the Compensation Committee to increase the
number of available shares. Any options granted under the 1997 Stock
Option Plan will be granted in substantially the same form as this
grant.

1. Background. Under Article 8 of the 1995 Omnibus Long-Term
Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), the Committee may, among other things,
award non-qualified stock options of the Company's Common Stock to
those Key Employees as the Committee in its discretion may determine,
subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as it deems
appropriate.
2. Award. Effective March , 1997, (the "Grant Date"), the Committee
granted to Harry L. Kavetas (the "Participant") an award of two
hundred thousand (200,000) non-qualified stock options (the "Award").
One option provides for the ability to purchase a single share of
Common Stock. The Award is granted under the Plan, subject to the

shall apply to the Award:
(a) Option Price. The option price for the options evidenced by way
of this Award Notice shall be $ .
(b) Duration of Option. Subject to Section 3(i) below, each option
shall expire at the close of business on the tenth anniversary of
the Grant Date, unless sooner terminated or forfeited in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Award Notice or
the Plan.
(c) Vesting. No option shall be exercisable prior to the date on
which it vests. Twenty five percent (25%) of the options shall
vest, on a cumulative basis, on each of the first 4 anniversaries
of the Grant Date. Once vested, the options may be exercised by
written notice to the Committee stating the number of options to
be exercised.
(d) Payment of Option Price. The option price for the share for
which an option is exercised by the Participant shall be paid by
the Participant on the date the option is exercised in cash, in
shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant, or a combination
of the foregoing. Any share of Common Stock delivered in payment
of the option price shall be valued at its Fair Market Value on
the date of exercise.
(e) Withholding. The Participant shall pay the amount of taxes
required to be withheld upon exercise of his options by
delivering a check made payable to the Company.
(f) Rights as a Shareholder. The Participant shall not have any of
the rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Common
Stock covered by an option except to the extent one or more
certificates for such shares shall be delivered to him upon the
exercise of such option.
(g) Broker Assisted Exercise. Notwithstanding Sections 3(d) and 3(e)
above, the Participant may, subject to Section 5(a) hereof,

(h) Termination of Employment. If the Participant's employment
terminates due to death, Disability, Illness, Retirement after

exercise in full. If the Participant's employment terminates for
any reason other than due to death, Disability, Illness,
Retirement after February 11, 2001 or termination for an Approved
Reason, any options which are vested at the time of the
Participant's termination shall not be exercisable beyond the

employment and any options not vested at the time of the
Participant's termination shall be immediately forfeited.

(i) Notwithstanding Section 3(b) hereof to the contrary, if on
the options' scheduled expiration date (A) any options
remain unexercised and (B) the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock exceeds the option price, then the
provisions of Section 3(i)(ii) below shall apply.
(ii) The Participant may exercise any of his unexercised options
as of the date they are scheduled to expire, unless already
forfeited under the terms and conditions of this Award
Notice or the Plan, by providing written notice thereof to
the Committee within sixty (60) days after such scheduled
expiration date. In such event, such options shall, for
purposes of this Award Notice and the Plan, be treated as
exercised prior to the close of business on their scheduled
expiration date; provided, however, the Participant shall
not be the record owner of the shares acquired upon exercise
of such options until the one or more certificates for the
shares have been delivered to the Participant. The strike
price of any options issued pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 3(i) shall be the mean between the high and low
at which the Common Stock trades on the New York Stock
Exchange on the options' scheduled expiration date, or, if
such day is not a trading day, the immediately preceding
trading day.
(iii) Notwithstanding Section 3(g) above to the contrary, any
options exercised pursuant to this Section 3(i) shall not,
without the Committee's prior approval, be exercised by way
of the Company's broker-assisted stock option program.
4. Definitions.
(a) Any defined term used in this Award Notice, other than those set
forth in Section 4(b) below, shall have the same meaning for
purposes of this document as that ascribed to it under the terms
of the Plan.
(b) The following definitions shall apply to this Award Notice:

amended through March 1, 1997 (the "Employment Agreement").
(iii) Illness. A termination of employment will be for "Illness"
if the Participant voluntarily terminates his employment
following a continuous period of at least 90 days during
which the Participant is unable to perform the regularly
assigned duties and responsibilities of his position with
the Company due to illness, disease or injury and the
condition is verified by such examinations and/or tests,
performed by a mutually agreeable doctor; provided, however,
that the Company may, if it reasonably so determines,
request additional examinations and/or tests by mutually
agreeable doctor(s).
(iv) Approved Reason. A termination for "Approved Reason" shall
include, without limitation, a Termination Without Cause or
Constructive Termination without Cause under Section 11(d)
of the Employment Agreement.
5. Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
(a) In order to avoid any Exchange Act violations, the Committee may,
at any time and from time to time, impose additional restrictions

resale, pursuant to a registration on Form S-3 under the 1933 Act
or such successor procedure that provides comparable opportunity
under the 1933 Act for issuance and resale; (2) fully registered
or qualified (at the Company's expense), under such state
securities laws as the Participant may reasonably request, both
for issuance and for resale; and (3) listed on the New York Stock
Exchange.
6. Non-Assignability. These options are non-assignable and
non-transferable, in whole or in part, other than i) by gratuitous
transfers to immediate family members, to trusts for their benefit, or
to limited partnerships in which immediate family members are the sole
partners, (ii) by will or under the laws of descent and distribution,
or (iii), on the Participant's death, to a beneficiary designated in
writing by the Participant, with any such permitted transferee to
succeed to the Participant's rights and obligations under the options
to the extent of such transfer.
7. Effect of Award Notice. This Award Notice, including its reference to
the Plan, constitutes the entire understanding between the Company and
the Participant concerning the Award and supersedes any prior notices,
letters, statements or other documents issued by the Company relating
to the Award and all prior agreements and understandings between the
Company and the Participant, whether written or oral, concerning the
Award.

construe and implement this Award Notice, to prescribe, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to it, and to make all other

administration. All such Committee determinations shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon any and all interested parties and their
heirs, successors, and personal representatives.
10. Impact on Benefits. The nonqualified stock options granted pursuant
to this Award Notice (either at the date of their grant or at the time
the shares are vested) shall not be includible as compensation or
earnings for purposes of any compensation or benefit plan offered by
the Company.

Participant's termination shall be immediately forfeited.
(i) Exercise Upon Expiration.
(i) Notwithstanding Section 3(b) hereof to the contrary, if on
the options' scheduled expiration date (A) any options
remain unexercised and (B) the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock exceeds the option price, then the
provisions of Section 3(i)(ii) below shall apply.
(ii) The Participant may exercise any of his unexercised options
as of the date they are scheduled to expire, unless already
forfeited under the terms and conditions of this Award
Notice or the Plan, by providing written notice thereof to
the Committee within sixty (60) days after such scheduled
expiration date. In such event, such options shall, for
purposes of this Award Notice and the Plan, be treated as
exercised prior to the close of business on their scheduled
expiration date; provided, however, the Participant shall
not be the record owner of the shares acquired upon exercise
of such options until the one or more certificates for the
shares have been delivered to the Participant. The strike
price of any options issued pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 3(i) shall be the mean between the high and low
at which the Common Stock trades on the New York Stock
Exchange on the options' scheduled expiration date, or, if
such day is not a trading day, the immediately preceding
trading day.
(iii) Notwithstanding Section 3(g) above to the contrary, any
options exercised pursuant to this Section 3(i) shall not,
without the Committee's prior approval, be exercised by way
of Kodak's broker-assisted stock option program.
4. Definitions.
(a) Any defined term used in this Award Notice, other than those set
forth in Section 4(b) below, shall have the same meaning for
purposes of this document as that ascribed to it under the terms
of the Plan.
(b) The following definitions shall apply to this Award Notice:
(i) Fair Market Value. The opening price of the Common Stock on
the New York Stock Exchange on the relevant date; provided,
however, if the Common Stock is not traded on the relevant
date, then the opening price on the immediately preceding
date on which the Common Stock is traded shall be used.
(ii) Retirement. The term "Retirement" shall mean the occurrence
of the Participant's retirement as determined in accordance
with Section 8 of the Employment Agreement between the
Participant and Kodak dated February 11, 1994, as amended
through March 3, 1997 (the "Employment Agreement").
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 182
(iii) Illness. A termination of employment will be for "Illness"
if the Participant voluntarily terminates his employment
following a continuous period of at least 90 days during
which the Participant is unable to perform the regularly
assigned duties and responsibilities of his position with
Kodak due to illness, disease or injury and the condition is
verified by such examinations and/or tests, performed by a
mutually agreeable doctor; provided, however, that Kodak
may, if it reasonably so determines, request additional
examinations and/or tests by mutually agreeable doctor(s).
(iv) Approved Reason. A termination for "Approved Reason" shall
include, without limitation, a Termination Without Cause or
Constructive Termination without Cause under Section 11(d)
of the Employment Agreement.
5. Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
(a) In order to avoid any Exchange Act violations, the Committee may,
at any time and from time to time, impose additional restrictions
upon the Awards, including, but not by way of limitation,
restrictions regarding the Participant's ability to exercise
options under Kodak's broker-assisted stock option exercise
program under Section 3(g).
(b) Kodak shall use its best efforts so that on or prior to December
31, 1997, all shares received by the Participant on any exercise
of an option shall be, and shall remain, (1) fully registered (at
Kodak's expense) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), both for issuance and for resale, pursuant to a
registration on Form S-3 under the 1933 Act or such successor
procedure that provides comparable opportunity under the 1933 Act
for issuance and resale; (2) fully registered or qualified (at
Kodak's expense), under such state securities laws as the
Participant may reasonably request, both for issuance and for
resale; and (3) listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
6. Non-Assignability. These options are non-assignable and
non-transferable, in whole or in part, other than (i) by gratuitous
transfers to immediate family members, to trusts for their benefit, or
to limited partnerships in which immediate family members are the sole
partners, (ii) by will or under the laws of descent and distribution,
or (iii), on the Participant's death, to a beneficiary designated in
writing by the Participant, with any such permitted transferee to
succeed to the Participant's rights and obligations under the options
to the extent of such transfer.
7. Effect of Award Notice. This Award Notice, including its reference to
the Plan, constitutes the entire understanding between Kodak and the
Participant concerning the Award and supersedes any prior notices,
letters, statements or other documents issued by Kodak relating to the
Award and all prior agreements and understandings between Kodak and
the Participant, whether written or oral, concerning the Award.
8. Miscellaneous.
(a) Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Award Notice have
been prepared for convenience and reference only and shall not
control, affect the meaning, or be taken as the interpretation of
any provision of the Award Notice.
(b) Applicable Law. This Award Notice, including its reference to
the Plan, and its interpretation and application, will be
governed and controlled by the laws of the State of New York,
except as superseded by applicable Federal Law.
(c) Amendment. The Committee may, from time to time, amend this
Award Notice in any manner; provided, however, that any such
amendment which is adverse to the Participant shall require the
Participant's consent.

9. Administration. The Committee shall have full and absolute authority
and discretion, subject to the provisions of the Plan, to interpret,
construe and implement this Award Notice, to prescribe, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to it, and to make all other
determinations necessary, appropriate or advisable for its
administration. All such Committee determinations shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon any and all interested parties and their
heirs, successors, and personal representatives.
10. Impact on Benefits. The nonqualified stock options granted pursuant
to this Award Notice (either at the date of their grant or at the time
the shares are vested) shall not be includible as compensation or
earnings for purposes of any compensation or benefit plan offered by
Kodak.
