Notes to Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Financial Statement Presentation
In the opinion of the management of TrustCo Bank Corp NY (the Company), the
accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30,
1997, the results of operations for the three months and six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, and the cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996. The accompanying Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should be
read in conjunction with the TrustCo Bank Corp NY year-end Consolidated
Financial Statements, including notes thereto, which are included in TrustCo
Bank Corp NY's 1996 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share"
(Statement 128), which establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share (EPS). This statement simplifies the standards for
computing EPS and supersedes Accounting Principals Board Opinion No. 15,
"Earnings per Share" and related interpretations. Statement 128 replaces the
presentation of primary EPS with the presentation of basic EPS. It also
requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income
statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a
reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation
to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by
the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the
earnings of the entity (such as the Company's stock options). This Statement
is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December
15, 1997, including interim periods. Earlier application is not permitted.
This Statement requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data presented.
Management does not anticipate that the adoption of Statement 128 will
materially impact EPS.
In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" (Statement 129),
which establishes standards for disclosure about a company's capital
structure. In accordance with Statement 129, companies will be required to
provide in the financial statements a complete description of all aspects of
their capital structure, including call and put
- 5 -
<PAGE>
features, redemption requirements and conversion options. The disclosures
required by Statement 129 are for financial statements for periods ending
after December 15, 1997. Management anticipates providing the required
information in the 1997 annual consolidated financial statements.
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ( Statement 130) , which establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income. Statement 130
states that comprehensive income includes the reported net income of a company
adjusted for items that are currently accounted for as direct entries to
equity, such as the mark to market adjustment on securities available for
sale, foreign currency items and minimum pension liability adjustments. This
statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Management anticipates developing the required information for inclusion in
the 1998 annual consolidated financial statements.
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information"
(Statement 131) which establishes standards for reporting by public companies
about operating segments of their business. Statement 131 also establishes
standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic
areas and major customers. This statement is effective for periods beginning
after December 15, 1997. Management anticipates developing the required
information for inclusion in the 1998 annual consolidated financial
statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
TrustCo Bank Corp NY:
We have reviewed the consolidated statement of financial condition of TrustCo
Bank Corp NY and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of income for the three month and six month
periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated statements of cash
flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures
to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial
and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for
them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated statement of financial condition of TrustCo Bank
Corp NY and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the
year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 24,
1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31, 1996, is
fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
statement of financial condition from which it has been derived.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
June 30, 1997
The review that follows focuses on the factors affecting the financial
condition and results of operations of TrustCo Bank Corp NY ("TrustCo" or "
Company") during the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997,
with comparisons to 1996 as applicable. Net interest income and net interest
margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis in this discussion.
The consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, as well as
the 1996 Annual Report to Shareholders, should be read in conjunction with
this review. Amounts in prior period consolidated interim financial statements
are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's
presentation. Per share results have all been adjusted for the 15% stock split
effective August 1996.
Statements included in this review and in future filings by TrustCo with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in TrustCo's press releases, and in oral
statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, which
are not historical or current facts, are "forward-looking statements" made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and
those presently anticipated or projected. TrustCo wishes to caution readers
not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date made. The following important factors, among others,
in some cases have affected and in the future could affect TrustCo's actual
results, and could cause TrustCo's actual financial performance to differ
materially from that expressed in any forward-looking statement: (1) credit
risk, (2) interest rate risk, (3) competition, (4) changes in the regulatory
environment, and (5) changes in general business and economic trends. The
foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company
disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise any forward- looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such
statements, or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated
events.
Following this discussion is the table "Distribution of Assets, Liabilities
and Shareholders' Equity: Interest Rates and Interest Differential" which
gives a detailed breakdown of TrustCo's average interest earning assets and
interest bearing liabilities for the three months and six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996.
Overview
TrustCo recorded net income of $7.9 million, or $0.37 per share for the three
month period ended June 30, 1997, as compared to net income of $6.9 million
and per share earnings of $0.33 for the same time period in 1996. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, TrustCo recorded net income of $15.4 million or
$0.73 per share compared to $13.6 million and $0.65 per share in the
comparable period in 1996.

TrustCo Bank Corp NY
Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued
June 30, 1997
The primary factors accounting for the year to date increase in net income
are:
|_| A 3% increase in average earning assets to $2.17 billion,
|_| Reduction in the provision for loan losses by $1.6 million, and
|_| Increase in noninterest income (excluding the effect of securities
transactions ) by approximately $1 million.
These positive factors affecting net income were offset by the following:
|_| Reduction in the net interest margin from 4.14% to 4.04%,
|_| Increase in noninterest expense by $1.7 million, and
|_| Increase in tax expense of $1.1 million.
Asset/Liability Management
TrustCo strives to generate superior earnings capabilities through a mix of
core deposits funding a prudent mix of earning assets. This is, in its most
fundamental form, the essence of asset/liability management. Additionally,
TrustCo attempts to maintain adequate liquidity and reduce, to an acceptable
level, the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates
while enhancing profitability both on a short-term and long-term basis.
Earning Assets
The average balance of earning assets increased by $45.4 million to $2.18
billion during the second quarter of 1997 compared to 1996. The average yield
on earning assets was 7.99% for the second quarter of 1997 compared to 7.95%
in 1996. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the average balance of
earning assets increased by $53.2 million to $2.17 billion. Included in the
tables "Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity: Interest
Rates and Interest Differential" is a detailed breakdown of TrustCo's average
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the three month and six
month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
Loans
During the second quarter of 1997, the loan portfolio grew by $17.8 million to
$1.25 billion from the $1.23 billion balance for the comparable period in
1996. The average yield on the loan portfolio decreased 3 basis points to
8.73% for the second quarter of 1997, versus 8.76% for the same time period in
1996. The net result was an increase in interest income on loans to $27.2
million in 1997 from $26.8 million in 1996.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1997, the average balance in the loan
portfolio was $1.24 billion, an increase of $15.7 million over the $1.23
billion average balance for the six

months ended June 30, 1996. The yield on the loan portfolio was 8.72% for the
first half of 1997, and 8.79% for the same time period in 1996. The
combination of the increase in the average balance of loans outstanding offset
the 7 basis points reduction in yield to produce an increase in interest
income on loans to $54.1 million in 1997.
All of the increase during the second quarter and first half of 1997 was
concentrated in the residential mortgage loan portfolio. For the quarter the
average balance of residential mortgage loans was $829.2 million, an increase
of $48.7 million from the second quarter 1996 average balance of $780.5
million. Likewise, for the first half of 1997 the average balance of
residential mortgage loans was $819.4 million, an increase of $44.2 million
from the 1996 average balance of $775.2 million. TrustCo's aggressive
marketing of these loans, combined with quick decision making on loan
applications, and low closing costs, allowed the Company to grow this portion
of the loan portfolio.
Commercial loans decreased by $21.3 million during the second quarter of 1997,
and by $18.3 million year to date 1997, as compared to 1996. The yield on this
portfolio increased to 9.48% for the second quarter, up 14 basis points
compared to the second quarter of 1996. Likewise, the six month results
reflect an increase of 6 basis points in the yield on the commercial loan
portfolio between 1996 and 1997.
Home equity lines of credit decreased to $180.3 million for the second quarter
of 1997, compared to the $188.1 million in the second quarter of 1996. The six
month results also reflect a decrease in the balances of home equity lines of
credit by $8.3 million to $181.8 million in 1997. Installment loans decreased
by $1.8 million and $1.9 million for the quarter and first half of 1997,
respectively, as compared to the same time periods in 1996. These decreases in
loan balances reflect the intense competition that exists for these products
among banks and other financial service providers in the Upstate New York area
TrustCo is a retail oriented institution, and as such, stresses the importance
of consumer oriented products such as residential mortgage loans, home equity
loans, and home equity lines of credit. Each of these areas is an important
contributor to profitability at TrustCo, and is a focus of continued marketing
and product development, to produce increases in the outstanding balances. The
second quarter and year to date results reflect this focus and also highlight
the competitive environment TrustCo operates in with respect to new loan
originations. TrustCo competes with numerous national, regional, and locally
based financial institutions for new loan and deposit business. Recently,
other financial institutions have made changes to their loan underwriting
standards in an effort to maintain or increase loan origination balances,
however, TrustCo has decided not to pursue this strategy, but instead to focus
on its strengths which are: local decision making, loan pricing, speed of
closing, and low closing costs. This focus has been immensely successful,
especially in the residential loan market.

Securities Available for Sale
During the second quarter of 1997, the average balance of securities available
for sale were $632.4 million with a yield of 7.71%, compared to the 1996
second quarter balance of $631.1 million and a 7.56% yield. The combination of
the slightly greater balance outstanding coupled with the 15 basis points
increase in the yield have resulted in interest income of $12.2 million in
1997, compared to $11.9 million in 1996.
The six month period ended June 30, 1997, reflects a decrease in the average
balance outstanding to $613.3 million from the $630.0 million in 1996. The
yield on the portfolio increased by 18 basis points between the six month
period ended June 30,1996, and the comparable period in 1997. Total interest
income remained virtually flat between 1997 and 1996 at $23.6 million in 1997,
and $23.7 million in 1996.
Reflected in both the second quarter and six month results is a shifting
within the securities portfolio from issues by U.S. Government agencies
securities into mortgage backed securities (all of which are issued by U.S.
Government agencies). During the second quarter, the average balance of
mortgage backed securities increased by $55.6 million between 1996 and 1997.
The reason for this shift in portfolio balances is to take advantage of
certain inefficiencies in the mortgage backed securities market compared to
direct issues from the U.S. Government agencies. TrustCo would expect this
trend to continue during 1997, as well as increases in the average balances of
securities issued by various states and political subdivisions.
Federal Funds
During the second quarter, the average balance of federal funds increased to
$306.5 million in 1997, compared to $280.2 million in 1996. The average yield
on this portfolio was 5.57% in the second quarter of 1997, and 5.31% in the
comparable 1996 period. The same trends were also reflected in the year to
date results. The increase in yield on the federal funds portfolio was the
result of the decision by the Federal Reserve Board to increase the target
interest rate on federal funds during the first quarter of 1997 to 5.50%.
The increase in the average balances for 1997 compared to 1996 for both the
quarter and year to date results reflect management's decision to remain
relatively liquid during 1997 as market interest rates in the loan and
securities portfolio were changing. This positions TrustCo to take advantage
of higher rates when the decision is made to reinvest this excess liquidity.
Funding Opportunities
TrustCo utilizes various funding sources to support its earning assets
portfolio. The vast majority of the Company's funding comes from traditional
deposit vehicles such as savings, interest bearing checking, and time deposit
accounts. Also, TrustCo developed a Short-Term

Investment Account which was introduced during 1995. This account is available
exclusively to customers in the Trust Department.
During the quarter total interest bearing liabilities increased by $41.8
million to $1.97 billion in 1997. The overall yield on the interest bearing
liabilities increased 12 basis points to 4.36% in 1997, from 4.24% in the
comparable period in 1996. Total interest expense for the quarter was $21.4
million in 1997, and $20.3 million in 1996. Similar increases were noted for
the six month results with total interest bearing liabilities increasing by
$50.7 million to $1.96 billion in 1997 and the yield increasing 6 basis points
to 4.35%.
The increase in interest bearing liabilities is concentrated in certificates
of deposit and in short term borrowings. For the second quarter of 1997,
certificates of deposit increased by $44.9 million over 1996, and the
short-term borrowing were $19.7 million greater in the second quarter of 1997
than in the comparable period in 1996.
Growth in deposit balances resulted from successful marketing and advertising
campaigns undertaken in 1997. In addition, new branches opened since 1995
continue to attract new customer accounts.
Net Interest Income
Taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $22.2 million for the second
quarter of 1997 and 1996. On a year to date basis, taxable equivalent net
interest income was $44.0 million in 1997 and $43.9 million in 1996. The net
interest spread was 3.63% for the second quarter of 1997 and 3.71% for 1996.
Net interest margin was 4.07% for the second quarter of 1997 and 4.14% in
1996. For the six months the net interest spread and margin were 3.61% and
4.04% in 1997 and 3.70% and 4.14% in 1996, respectively.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans which are those loans in a
nonaccrual status, loans that have been restructured and loans past due 90
days or more and still accruing interest. Also included in the total of
nonperforming assets are foreclosed real estate properties which are
categorized as real estate owned.
Impaired loans are defined as those commercial and commercial real estate
loans on a nonaccrual status, and loans restructured since January 1, 1995,
when newly effective accounting standards required changing the
identification, measurement and reporting of impaired loans, and loans whose
terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. The following will
describe the nonperforming assets of TrustCo as of June 30, 1997.
Nonperforming loans: Total nonperforming loans were $12.2 million at June 30,
1997, down $1.7 million from the total at June 30, 1996. Nonaccrual loans were
$ 7.7 million at June

30, 1997, compared to $10.8 million at June 30, 1996. Restructured loans
increased $1.4 million to $3.5 million as of June 30, 1997, compared to June
30, 1996.
Total commercial and commercial real estate impaired loans were $2.4 million
at June 30, 1997, and together with the newly restructured retail loans of
$3.7 million, represent the Company's impaired loans at June 30, 1997. Of the
total $12.2 million of nonperforming loans at June 30, 1997, $6.1 million were
identified as being impaired, leaving $6.2 million of loans that are
nonperforming retail loans. TrustCo does not consider these to be impaired
loans.
During the first six months of 1997 there have been $2.3 million of commercial
loan charge offs, and $1.4 million of consumer loan charge offs. Recoveries
during the six month period have been $2.0 million.
Real estate owned: Total real estate owned increased to $8.8 million at June
30, 1997, from $4.7 million at June 30, 1996. The increase in real estate
owned between June 30, 1996, and June 30, 1997, was principally due to two
commercial real estate properties that were foreclosed on in the third quarter
of 1996 and the first quarter of 1997. Likewise, there has been an increase in
foreclosures on residential real estate between June 30, 1996 and 1997. The
increase in the residential real estate foreclosures is an indication of the
economic stress that the Upstate New York area is suffering as a result of
corporate downsizing, relocating of state employees, and the overall lack of
growth in the area.
Allowance for loan losses: The balance of the allowance for loan losses is
maintained at a level that is, in management's judgment, representative of the
amount of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, given past, present and
expected future conditions.
At June 30, 1997, the allowance for loan losses was $ 52.3 million, which
represents a slight increase from the $51.6 million in the allowance at year
end 1996. The allowance represent 4.16% of the loan portfolio as of June 30,
1997, up slightly from 4.15% of loans as of year end 1996. The year to date
provision charged to expense was $2.4 million in 1997 and $4.0 million in
1996.
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
TrustCo seeks to obtain favorable sources of funding and to maintain prudent
levels of liquid assets in order to satisfy varied liquidity demands.
TrustCo's earnings performance and strong capital position enable the Company
to raise funds easily in the marketplace and to secure new sources of funding.
The Company actively manages its liquidity through target ratios established
under its liquidity policies. Continual monitoring of both historical and
prospective ratios allows TrustCo to employ strategies necessary to maintain
adequate liquidity. Management has also defined various degrees of adverse
liquidity situations which could potentially occur, and has prepared
appropriate continuance plans should such a situation arise.

Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 1997, was $3.8
million compared to $1.0 million in 1996. For 1997 the Company recorded $300
thousand of net securities losses during the second quarter, compared to $2.6
million of net securities losses in the comparable period in 1996. Therefore,
once these securities transactions are eliminated, the second quarter 1997
noninterest income was $4.1 million compared to $3.7 million in 1996. The
increase in noninterest income is primarily centered in growth in Trust
Department income and fees charged on deposit accounts.
For the six months ended June 30, 1997, total noninterest income (excluding
the effect of net securities transactions) was $8.1 million in 1997, and $7.2
million for the corresponding period in 1996.
Noninterest Expenses
Total noninterest expense for the second quarter of 1997 was $11.6 million, an
increase of $900 thousand from the $10.7 million recognized in the second
quarter of 1996. The increase in noninterest expense is due to increases in
salaries and benefits cost of $500 thousand as a result of increasing benefit
costs and new hires, increase in occupancy cost of $200 thousand due to
additional costs associated with new branches opened in 1996 and 1997, and a
$500 thousand increase in equipment cost also attributable to the branch
expansion program and computer modifications. These additional costs were
slightly offset by decreases in real estate expenses and other miscellaneous
costs.
For the first six months of 1997, noninterest expense amounted to $ 22.8
million compared to $21.1 million in 1996. Similar to the second quarter
results, the increased costs are primarily in the salaries and benefits area
and the additional costs associated with the branch expansion program.
Income Taxes
In the second quarter of 1997 and 1996, TrustCo recognized $4.7 million and
$4.1 million, respectively, of income tax expense. This resulted in an
effective tax rate of 37.3% in 1997 and 1996. For the six months of 1997,
total tax expense was $9.2 million compared to $8.1 million in 1996.

Capital Resources
Consistent with its long-term goal of operating a sound and profitable
financial organization, TrustCo strives to maintain strong capital ratios. New
issues of equity securities have not been required since traditionally, most
of its capital requirements are met through the capital retained in the
Company (after the dividends on the common stock).
Total shareholders' equity at June 30, 1997, was $168.9 million an increase of
$15.5 million from the June 30, 1996 balance of $153.4 million.. The change in
shareholders' equity between 1996 and 1997 reflect the net income retained by
TrustCo, and $6.7 million of additional unrealized gains on the securities
available for sale portfolio as of June 30, 1997, as compared to June 30,
1996. Excluding the effect of this market value adjustment on securities
available for sale, total stockholders' equity would have been $160.9 million
at June 30, 1997, and $152.1 million at June 30, 1996.
TrustCo declared dividends of $0.55 per share during the first six months of
1997, compared to $0.48 in 1996. These resulted in a dividend payout ratio of
72.7% in 1997, and 71.5% in 1996. The Company achieved the following capital
ratios as of June 30, 1997 and 1996:
June 30, Minimum Regulatory
1997 1996 Guidelines
---- ---- ----------
Tier 1 risk adjusted
capital 13.37 12.64 4.00
Total risk adjusted
capital 14.66 13.92 8.00
In addition, at June 30, 1997 and 1996, consolidated equity to asset ratio
(excluding the mark to market adjustment on securities available for sale) was
7.01% and 6.85%, respectively.

date, time, or place, notice need not be given of the new date, time or place,
if the new date, time or place is announced at the meeting before adjournment,
unless any additional items of business are to be considered, or the
association becomes aware of an intervening event materially affecting any
matter to be voted on more than 10 days prior to the date to which the meeting

state and locality of the Participant's domicile upon a Change of Control. The
determination of whether such Excise Tax is payable and the amount thereof
shall be based upon the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company and
acceptable to the Participant. If such opinion is not finally accepted by the

computed (without interest but with Gross Up, if applicable) by such tax
counsel based upon the final amount of the Excise Tax so determined. The
adjusted amount shall be paid by the appropriate party in one lump cash sum
within thirty (30) days of such computation.

granted hereunder to remain unchanged as a result of the applicable
transaction.
ARTICLE IX

information necessary for a claimant to perfect a claim, an explanation of why
such material or information is necessary and appropriate and information as

receipt of a request for review unless special circumstances require an
extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered
as soon as possible but not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after
receipt of a request for review, provided that the claimant is given written
notice of the extension of time within the original sixty (60) day period. The

beneficiary the benefits to which Plan participants or their beneficiaries
would be entitled pursuant to the terms of the Plan as of the date of the

Control" will include the execution of a definitive agreement expressing the

singular terminology shall include the plural.
Section 13.5 If a Change in Control, as defined in Section 1.3(b) is
intended to be accounted for under the pooling of interests accounting rules,

Control from being accounted for under the pooling of interests accounting
rules, the Plan may be amended to eliminate the obstacle to the use of pooling
of interests rules for that Change in Control or other changes to the Plan may
be made that are determined to be appropriate. No such amendment or other
changes should created an obstacle to the Change of Control being accounted
for under the pooling of interests accounting rules.

Section 13.1 No employee or other person shall have any claim or right

Section 13.2 The Plan shall at all times be entirely unfunded and no
provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating assets of the
Company for payment of any benefits hereunder. No Director or other person

the right to receive a benefit under the Plan and any such Director or other
person shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the
Company with respect to any rights under the Plan.

a rabbi trust in an amount that is sufficient to pay each Director or
beneficiary the

intended to be accounted for under the pooling of interests accounting rules,
and any provision of this Plan is determined to preclude that Change in
Control from being accounted for under the pooling of interests accounting
rules, the Plan may be amended to eliminate the obstacle to the use of pooling
of interests rules for that Change in Control or other changes to the Plan may
be made that are determined to be appropriate. No such amendment or other
changes should created an obstacle to the Change of Control being accounted
for under the pooling of interests accounting rules.

purposes.
6. Every notice or other communication relating to this Agreement shall
be in writing, and shall be mailed to or delivered to the party for whom it is
intended at such address as may from time to time be designated by it in a
notice mailed or delivered to the other party as herein provided; provided

transferred by the Unit Holder except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. The Units under this Agreement may be exercised only by the Unit
Holder during his lifetime.
9. Units granted under this Agreement will not become vested until the
earlier of (i) a Change in Control, or (ii) the Director's termination of
employment with the Company for reasons other than Cause within one year prior
to a Change in Control.
10. Amounts payable under the Unit will be paid within thirty
(30) days after a Change in Control in cash.
11. All decisions and interpretations made by the Committee established
to administer the Plan, with regard to any question arising hereunder or under
the Plan shall be binding and conclusive on the Company and Unit Holder. Any
capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as under the
Plan. This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New York and
shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and
assigns, and to the Unit Holder, and except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement and the Plan, to his assigns and legal representatives).
