NOTE 3:  ACQUISITION OF WANG LABORATORIES' SOFTWARE UNIT

On March 17, 1997, the Company acquired Wang Laboratories' software
business unit for approximately $260 million in cash.  The unit is
engaged in the development of workflow, imaging, document management and
network storage management software.  The transaction was accounted for
by the purchase method and, accordingly, the operating results of the
business have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements from the date of acquisition.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded a pre-tax
charge of $186 million in purchased research and development expense in
the first quarter.  The amount attributed to purchased research and
development was determined by a nationally recognized independent
valuation firm through established valuation techniques in the high
technology document imaging industry.  The amount was expensed upon
acquisition as the technology has not reached technological feasiblity
and has no alternative future use.

The Company results for the first half-year include a pre-tax charge of
$186 million ($.37 per share after tax) for in-process research and
development (R&D) associated with the acquisition of Wang Laboratories'
software unit on March 17, 1997.  Excluding this charge, net earnings
per share for the first half-year would have been $1.94.

1996

During the 1996 second quarter, the Company initiated a $2 billion share
repurchase program which is expected to be completed by mid-year 1998.

</TABLE>
1997 COMPARED WITH 1996

Second quarter

For the second quarter of 1997, sales decreased 6% compared with the
second quarter of 1996, due to the sale of the Office Imaging business
on December 31, 1996.  With Office Imaging sales excluded from both
years, sales were up 2% on a year-over-year basis, or up 5% excluding
the effects of the stronger dollar.

Sales in the Consumer Imaging segment increased 5%, due to higher unit
volumes partially offset by lower effective selling prices and the
unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes.  Excluding the
impact of the stronger dollar, sales would have increased 8%.  Sales
inside the U.S. increased 9%, or $83 million, of which $40 million are a
result of the Company's acquisition of Fox Photo, Inc. in October, 1996.
Sales outside the U.S. increased 1%, due to higher unit volumes offset
by the unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes and lower
effective selling prices.

Worldwide film sales increased 2%, as a 9% volume increase was largely
offset by lower prices and negative foreign exchange.  U.S. film sales
were essentially level, with 4% volume growth offset by lower prices,
principally in the one-time-use camera category.  Outside the U.S., film
sales increased 3%, with a 15% volume growth partially offset by lower
prices and the unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes.
                                                                <PAGE> 8

Worldwide color paper sales decreased 2%, as 11% volume gains were more
than offset by negative price and unfavorable foreign exchange.  U.S.
sales decreased 15%, driven by a 7% decline in volumes and lower prices
caused by recent consolidation of the U.S. photofinishing industry.
While this unfavorable year-over-year comparison will continue for the
balance of 1997, we expect the magnitude of the decline to lessen in the
second half.  Paper sales outside the U.S. increased 6%, driven by a 21%
volume increase partially offset by lower price and unfavorable foreign
exchange.  Sales increases reflect the impact of continuing growth in
emerging markets.

Sales in the Commercial Imaging segment decreased 17%, largely due to
the sale of the Office Imaging business.  Excluding the sales of Office
Imaging from both years, sales decreased 2% (or increased 1% excluding
the effects of the stronger dollar), as higher unit volumes were more
than offset by lower effective selling prices and the unfavorable
effects of foreign currency rate changes.

Earnings from operations for the Company decreased 13%, as the benefits
of higher unit volumes, reduced selling, general and administrative
expenses and manufacturing productivity were more than offset by lower
effective selling prices, the unfavorable effects of foreign currency
rate changes and write-offs of first generation Advantix camera tooling
and parts.

Earnings from operations in the Consumer Imaging segment decreased 16%,
as the benefits of higher unit volumes were more than offset by lower
effective selling prices, the unfavorable effects of foreign currency
rate changes and increased year-over-year losses from the Company's
Advantix business.  The increased Advantix losses reflect principally
continued investment to ensure system success and a charge of $25
million ($.05 per share after tax) to write off tooling and parts for
some first generation Advantix cameras.  The Company expects losses
attributable to Advantix in 1997 to exceed those of 1996.

Earnings from operations in the Commercial Imaging segment decreased 6%
as the benefits of reduced selling, general and administrative expenses
and manufacturing productivity were more than offset by lower unit
volumes, lower effective selling prices and the unfavorable effects of
foreign currency rate changes.  Excluding the effects of the stronger
dollar, earnings from operations would have increased.
                                                                <PAGE> 9

Improvements in Entertainment Imaging and Kodak Professional were
insufficient to offset reduced earnings in Business Imaging, Health
Imaging and Digital & Applied Imaging.  In Digital & Applied Imaging,
losses were higher in the 1997 second quarter compared with a year ago
and the rate of sales growth slowed during the period.  Increased
expenses on a year-over-year basis reflecting the costs of integrating
acquisitions, the largest of which was the Company's purchase of Wang
Laboratories' software unit, also contributed to decreased earnings
primarily in the Company's Business Imaging Systems business unit.  In
that unit, sales declined 3% on a year-over-year basis with level volume
offset by negative exchange.  Kodak Professional continues its long-term
strategy to improve its cost structure while leveraging its strong
product portfolio, including computer-to-plate technology, improved
color reversal films and digital proofing systems.  Strategic alliances,
such as the one recently announced with Heidelberg, should also improve
performance over the long haul.  Health Imaging worldwide revenues were
down 7% on modest volume growth, unfavorable foreign exchange and
continuing price pressures in the medical X-ray line of products.  Price
pressures and unfavorable foreign exchange caused a year-over-year
earnings decline.  Entertainment Imaging continues its excellent
performance, with strong top line growth and record quarterly earnings.

For the second quarter of 1997, earnings from equity interests and other
revenues decreased $48 million primarily due to a reduction in interest
income attributable to lower average cash balances.  Other costs
decreased $28 million due primarily to lower reportable foreign exchange
costs.  The increase in the effective tax rate from 33% in the second
quarter of 1996 to 34% in the second quarter of 1997 was primarily due
to the effect, on the 1996 rate, of the expected increased utilization
of certain foreign tax loss carryforwards.

Year to date

For the first half of 1997, sales decreased 7% compared with the first
half of 1996, due to the sale of the Office Imaging business on December
31, 1996.  With Office Imaging sales excluded from both years, sales
were up 2% on a year-over-year basis, or up 5% excluding the effects of
the stronger dollar.

Sales in the Consumer Imaging segment increased 4%, as higher unit
volumes were partially offset by lower effective selling prices and the
unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes.  Excluding the
impact of the stronger dollar, sales would have increased 7%.  Sales
inside the U.S. increased 10%, or $150 million, of which $73 million are
a result of the Company's acquisition of Fox Photo, Inc. in October,
1996.  Sales outside the U.S. were level, as higher unit volumes were
offset by lower effective selling prices and the unfavorable effects of
foreign currency rate changes.

Worldwide film sales increased 2%, as an 11% volume increase was largely
offset by lower prices and unfavorable foreign exchange.  U.S. film
sales increased 6%, with 10% volume growth partially offset by lower
prices.  Outside the U.S., film sales decreased 1%, with a 12% volume
growth more than offset by lower prices and unfavorable foreign
exchange.

Worldwide color paper sales decreased 3%, as 9% volume gains were more
than offset by negative price and unfavorable exchange.  U.S. sales
decreased 16%, driven by lower prices and a 7% decline in volumes caused
by recent consolidation of the U.S. photofinishing industry.  Paper
sales outside the U.S. increased 4%, driven by an 18% volume increase
partially offset by lower price and unfavorable foreign exchange.  Sales
increases reflect the impact of continuing growth in emerging markets.

Sales in the Commercial Imaging segment decreased 16%, largely due to
the sale of the Office Imaging business.  Excluding the sales of Office
Imaging from both years, sales decreased 1% (or increased 2% excluding
the effects of the stronger dollar), as higher unit volumes were more
than offset by lower effective selling prices and the unfavorable
effects of foreign currency rate changes.

Earnings from operations for the Company decreased 27%, as the benefits
of reduced selling, general and administrative expenses, higher unit
volumes and manufacturing productivity were more than offset by lower
effective selling prices, the R&D charge associated with the purchase of
Wang Laboratories' software unit in the first quarter 1997, the
unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes and write-offs of
first generation Advantix camera tooling and parts.  Excluding the R&D
charge associated with the purchase of Wang Laboratories' software unit,
earnings from operations decreased 9%. Losses on the Company's digital
products portfolio, which are in both the Commercial and Consumer
segments, were in excess of $100 million for the first six months and
larger than the comparable 1996 period.

Earnings from operations in the Consumer Imaging segment decreased 15%,
as the benefits of higher unit volumes were more than offset by lower
effective selling prices, the unfavorable effects of foreign currency
rate changes and increased year-over-year losses from the Company's
Advantix business.

Earnings from operations in the Commercial Imaging segment decreased
44%, as the benefits of reduced selling, general and administrative
expenses were more than offset by the R&D charge associated with the
purchase of Wang Laboratories' software unit in the first quarter 1997,
lower effective selling prices, lower unit volumes and the unfavorable
effects of foreign currency rate changes.  Excluding the R&D charge
associated with the purchase of Wang Laboratories' software unit,
earnings from operations decreased 2%.  Improvements in Entertainment
Imaging and Kodak Professional were insufficient to offset reduced
earnings in Business Imaging, Health Imaging and Digital & Applied
Imaging.

For the first half of 1997, earnings from equity interests and other
revenues decreased $37 million primarily due to a reduction in interest
income attributable to lower average cash balances.  Other costs
decreased $27 million due primarily to lower reportable foreign exchange
costs.
                                                               <PAGE> 11

With the Company facing continuing pressure from the effect of the
stronger dollar compared with 1996, encountering price pressures, making
investments to support the Advantix system and experiencing widening
losses in digital products, it is unlikely full year 1997 earnings per
share will exceed $4.50 (the 1996 earnings per share, adjusted to
exclude: $358 million ($256 million after tax) of restructuring costs, a
$387 million loss ($252 million after tax) related to the sale of the
Office Imaging business, and a gain on the sale of discontinued
operations of $277 million).

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Available cash reserves and cash from operations have been and will be
used to complete the $2 billion stock repurchase program.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first half of 1997 was
$93 million, as net earnings of $517 million, which included non-cash
expenses for depreciation and amortization of $390 million and a $186
million R&D charge associated with the purchase of Wang Laboratories'
software unit, were offset by decreases in liabilities (excluding
borrowings) of $366 million, a $197 million increase in receivables and
a $193 million increase in inventories.  Net cash used in investing
activities of $995 million for the first half of 1997 was due primarily
to additions to properties of $678 million and acquisitions, net of cash
acquired, of $316 million.  Net cash used in financing activities of
$483 million for the first half of 1997 was primarily due to $659
million of stock repurchases and $280 million of dividend payments.

During the second quarter of 1997, a cash dividend of $144 million (44
cents per share) was declared on the Company's common stock, versus $135
million (40 cents per share) a year ago.  Total cash dividends declared
for the year-to-date periods of 1997 and 1996 amounted to $291 million
(88 cents per share) and $272 million (80 cents per share),
respectively.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $400 million at
the end of the second quarter, compared with $1,796 million at year-end
1996.  Net working capital at the end of the quarter was $906 million,
compared with $1,548 million at year-end 1996.  Both decreases are
primarily attributable to the stock repurchase program and the
acquisition of Wang Laboratories' software unit.

Capital additions for the second quarter of 1997 were $369 million
compared with $282 million for the second quarter of 1996.  For the
first half of 1997, capital additions were $678 million versus $532
million a year ago.

OTHER

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share."  This standard replaces primary earnings per share with
basic earnings per share and requires presentation of diluted EPS as
well as a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings
per share.  The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 128 in the fourth
quarter of 1997 and at that time all historical earnings per share data
presented will be restated to conform to the provisions of SFAS No. 128.
The Company does not expect this statement to have a material impact on
its earnings per share.

                       Part II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  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
($71,844,900 after 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.

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.

                                                               <PAGE> 23

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 Cash Deferrable Amount to
be deferred; (2) the amount of the Stock Deferrable Amount to be
deferred; and (3) the allocation in whole percentages of the deferred
Cash Deferrable Amount between the Deferred Compensation Account and the
Stock Account.  Stock Deferrable Amounts may only be deferred by a
Participant into his or her Stock Account; they may not be deferred into
the Participant's Deferred Compensation 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.

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.
                                                               <PAGE> 24

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 as follows:

     i. Cash Deferrable Amounts.  In the case of elections to defer
        Cash Deferrable Amounts, 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.

    ii. Stock Deferrable Amounts.  In the case of elections to defer
        Stock Deferrable Amounts, with that number of units of Common
        Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that would
        otherwise be paid to the Participant but for his or her election
        to defer into the Stock Account.


Article 7   Investment Elections

7.1   Elections

  A. In General.  Subject to Section 7.1(B) below, 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.

  B. Deferred Stock Deferrable Amounts.  A Participant may not transfer
     to his or her Deferred Compensation Account any Stock Deferrable
     Amounts that he or she has elected to defer under the Plan.  All
     units of Common Stock credited as a result of such amounts pursuant
     to Sections 7.4 or 7.5 below may, however, be transferred by the
     Participant to his or her Deferred Compensation Account pursuant to
     Section 7.3.

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
                                                               <PAGE> 25

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.

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
                                                               <PAGE> 26

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.

8.3   Timing

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
                                                               <PAGE> 27

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,
     notwithstanding Section 7.1(B) to the contrary, 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.
                                                               <PAGE> 28

decision or action shall be modified upon judicial review unless such

the Plan to any person or persons provided that any such delegation be
