                 Chairman, President and CEO during the Transition Period,
                 during the Transition Period and, if the Transition Period
                 shall have ended prior to July 31, 2000, thereafter through
                 July 31, 2000 (the "Post-Transition Period"), Executive shall
                 reasonably cooperate with the Company with regard to management
                 transition and succession (including, but not limited to,
                 reasonably cooperating with the Company in the search for his
                 successor as CEO and reasonably cooperating with such successor
                 and the Company in the transition process)."

              4. Section 3(a)(5) of the Retirement Agreement is hereby amended
in the following respects:

                 (a)   The parenthetical language "(or such earlier date on
                       which the Transition Period ends)" contained in the third
                       sentence thereof shall be deleted.

                 (b)   The seventh sentence thereof shall be amended in its
                       entirety to read as follows:

                       "The remaining one million dollars ($1,000,000), plus, if
                       the Transition Period shall have ended prior to July 31,
                       2000, interest thereon from the end of the Transition

                       January 31, 2000 (the "Prime Rate") (such one million
                       dollars plus interest (if applicable) being referred to
                       as the "Holdback Amount"), shall be paid to Executive as
                       soon as practicable following July 31, 2000 (but in no
                       event earlier than payment of the amounts pursuant to the
                       immediately preceding sentence), unless a two-person
                       committee (the "Committee") of Company directors,
                       consisting of Messrs. Ernest Drew and Michael Hammes (or,

                       either or both of such individuals, another Company
                       director or directors acceptable to the Executive), shall
                       have theretofore determined in good faith that the

                       Agreement."

                       the Transition Period)."

                 (d)   The phrase "prior to the end of the Post-Transition
                       Period" contained in the tenth sentence thereof shall be

                       of the end of the Post-Transition Period or the end of
                       the Transition Period."

                 (e)   The parenthetical phrase "(or, if earlier and the
                       Executive otherwise qualifies to receive the Holdback
                       Amount, promptly following the end of the Post-Transition
                       Period)" contained in the last sentence thereof shall be

3(b) of the Retirement Agreement shall be amended to read as follows:

                 "(other than (i) in accordance with the notice requirements of
                 the second sentence of Section 1(a) hereof, thereby ending the
                 Transition Period at the end of the notice period, or (ii) for
                 Good Reason, as defined in Section 7(e) of the Employment
                 Agreement, except that (1) the actions contemplated by the last
                 sentence of Section 1(a) shall not constitute Good Reason and
                 (2) any claim by the Executive that Good Reason exists shall be
                 based solely on acts or omissions occurring on or after the
                 Effective Date)"

              6. Section 3(c) of the Retirement Agreement shall be amended by

                        consummation of the transaction contemplated by which

                        sixty day period referred to in Rule 13d-3 under the
                        Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (a "Special Change in

                        Change in Control Agreement, after consummation of the
                        transaction contemplated by such Special Change in
                        Control or Change in Control Agreement), or (ii) the

                        Period, Executive shall have no further obligations
                        under Section 1 hereof and (C) in lieu of the payments
                        and benefits otherwise provided under this Agreement and
                        subject to the succeeding provisions of this paragraph,
                        Executive's rights shall be limited to receipt of the

                        in said Section 8(d) (and, if applicable, Section 9(b));
                        provided, however, that in the event of a Special Change
                        in Control or in the event the Company enters into a
                        Change in Control Agreement, the Company's obligation to
                        make or provide the foregoing payments and benefits
                        shall apply only upon consummation of the transaction
                        contemplated by the Special Change in Control or Change
                        in Control Agreement (as the case may be) and in the
                        event such transaction is abandoned or not otherwise
                        consummated for any reason, then this paragraph (d)
                        shall not apply and Executive's rights shall be
                        determined pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this
                        Section 3, whichever paragraph is applicable; and
                        provided, further, that for purposes of any such
                        transaction which is consummated, the non-vested portion
                        of Executive's outstanding stock options (determined
                        immediately prior to the end of the Transition Period)
                        shall be treated as outstanding. Notwithstanding the
                        foregoing, pending consummation of any such transaction,
                        the amounts and benefits to which Executive is otherwise
                        entitled under paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section
                        3 shall be paid or provided in accordance with the
                        provisions of the applicable paragraph (and Executive
                        shall be under no obligation to return any such amounts
                        or benefits received to which he is otherwise entitled),
                        subject to supplemental amounts and benefits being paid
                        or provided by the Company under Sections 8(d) and 9(b)
                        of the Employment Agreement upon consummation of such
                        transaction, it being understood, however, that the
                        Company shall be under no obligation to make payments or
                        provide benefits under said Section 8(d) or 9(b) to the
                        extent such payments or benefits are duplicative of
                        payments or benefits theretofore made or provided to
                        Executive hereunder (and, more particularly, it being
                        understood that the Retirement Benefits to which
                        Executive is entitled under said Section 8(d) shall be
                        offset by the amounts payable to Executive under
                        Sections 3(a)(4) and 3(a)(5) hereof). Further, nothing
                        herein shall limit Executive's rights which arise under
                        any Company plan or grant upon the occurrence of a
                        Change in Control prior to the end of the Transition
                        Period while Executive is in the employ of the Company.
