Stock, Performance Units, and Performance Shares.
The Plan became effective as of September 15, 1993 (the "Effective Date"),
and shall remain in effect as provided in Section 1.3 herein.
Effective May 4, 1995, the Plan was amended to limit the number of Shares
that can be granted in the form of an Option to any Participant during any
fiscal year of the Company to 500,000.
Effective June 6, 1996, the Plan was amended to (i) increase the total
number of Shares available for grant under the Plan and (ii) limit the
total amount of Restricted Stock that can be awarded under the Plan.
Effective July 29, 1998, the Plan was amended to (i) increase the total
number of Shares available for grant under the Plan and (ii) increase the

1.2 PURPOSE OF THE PLAN. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success and
enhance the value of the Company by linking the personal interests of
Participants to those of Company shareholders, and by providing
Participants with an incentive for outstanding performance.
The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its
ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of Participants upon
whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of its
operation largely is dependent.
1.3 DURATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall commence on the Effective Date, as
described in Section 1.1 herein, and shall remain in effect, subject to
the right of the Board of Directors to terminate the Plan at any time
pursuant to Article 14 herein, until all Shares subject to it shall have

resolutions of the Board of Directors shall be final, conclusive, and
binding on all persons, including the Company, its stockholders,
Employees, Participants, and their estates and beneficiaries.
ARTICLE 4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
4.1 NUMBER OF SHARES. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 herein,
the total number of Shares available for grant under the Plan may not
exceed 5,250,000. These Shares may be either authorized but unissued or
reacquired Shares.
The following rules will apply for purposes of the determination of the
number of Shares available for grant under the Plan:
(a) While an Award is outstanding, it shall be counted against the
authorized pool of Shares, regardless of its vested status.

available for grant under the Plan by the number of Shares subject
to such Award.
(c) The grant of a Tandem SAR shall reduce the number of Shares
available for grant by the number of Shares subject to the related
Option (i.e., there is no double counting of Options and their
related Tandem SARs).
(d) The grant of an Affiliated SAR shall reduce the number of Shares
available for grant by the number of Shares subject to the SAR, in
addition to the number of Shares subject to the related Option.

corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, such adjustment
shall be made in the number and class of Shares which may be delivered
under the Plan, and in the number and class of and/or price of Shares
subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan, as may be determined
to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee, in its sole discretion,
to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights; and provided that the number
of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number.

year of the Company. The Committee may grant ISOs, NQSOs, or a combination
thereof.

Agreement that shall specify the Option Price, the duration of the Option,
the number of Shares to which the Option pertains, and such other
provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Option Agreement also

meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or a NQSO whose grant is intended not
to fall under the Code provisions of Section 422.
6.3 OPTION PRICE. The Option Price for each grant of an Option shall be
determined by the Committee; provided that the Option Price shall not be

granted unless such Option is granted in connection with a deferral
election pursuant to Article XI herein.
6.4 DURATION OF OPTIONS. Each Option shall expire at such time as the
Committee shall determine at the time of grant; provided, however, that no

<PAGE> 8
6.5 EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable
at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the
Committee shall in each instance approve, which need not be the same for
each grant or for each Participant. However, in no event may any Option
granted under this Plan become exercisable prior to six (6) months
following the date of its grant.
6.6 PAYMENT. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice of
exercise to the Company, setting forth the number of Shares with respect

the Shares.
The Option Price upon exercise of any Option shall be payable to the
Company in full either: (a) in cash or its equivalent, or (b) by tendering
previously acquired Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the
time of exercise equal to the total Option Price (provided that the Shares
which are tendered must have been held by the Participant for at least six
(6) months prior to their tender to satisfy the Option Price), or (c) by a
combination of (a) and (b).
The Committee also may allow cashless exercise as permitted under Federal
Reserve Board's Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law
restrictions, or by any other means which the Committee determines to be
consistent with the Plan's purpose and applicable law.
As soon as practicable after receipt of a written notification of exercise
and full payment, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, in the
Participant's name, Share certificates in an appropriate amount based upon
the number of Shares purchased under the Option(s).
6.7 RESTRICTIONS ON SHARE TRANSFERABILITY. The Committee may impose such
restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option
under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation,
restrictions under applicable Federal securities laws, under the

applicable to such Shares.

date of death, whichever period is shorter, by such person or
persons as shall have been named as the Participant's beneficiary,

as the Committee deems advisable.
(d) EMPLOYMENT TERMINATION FOLLOWED BY DEATH. In the event that a
Participant's employment terminates by reason of Disability or

termination the Participant dies, then the remaining exercise period
under outstanding vested Options shall equal the longer of (i) one
(1) year following death; or (ii) the remaining portion of the
exercise period which was triggered by the employment termination.
Such Options shall be exercisable by such person or persons who
shall have been named as the Participant's beneficiary, or by such
persons who have acquired the Participant's rights under the Option
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

prescribed under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, may not be available if the Options are not exercised

various types of employment termination.
6.9 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR OTHER REASONS. If the employment of a
Participant shall terminate for any reason other than the reasons set
forth in Section 6.8 (and other than for Cause), all Options held by the
Participant which are not vested as of the effective date of employment
termination immediately shall be forfeited to the Company (and shall once
again become available for grant under the Plan). However, the Committee,
in its sole discretion, shall have the right to immediately vest all or

ARTICLE 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
7.1 GRANT OF SARS. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a SAR may
be granted to an Employee at any time and from time to time as shall be
determined by the Committee. The Committee may grant Affiliated SARs,
Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs, or any combination of these forms of SARs.
The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number of
SARs granted to each Participant (subject to Article 4 herein) and,
consistent with the provisions of the Plan, in determining the terms and
conditions pertaining to such SARs. However, the grant price of a
Freestanding SAR shall be at least equal to the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date of grant of the SAR. The grant price of Tandem SARs and
Affiliated SARs shall equal the Option Price of the related Option. In no
event shall any SAR granted hereunder become exercisable within the first
six (6) months of its grant.
7.2 EXERCISE OF TANDEM SARS. Tandem SARs may be exercised for all or part of
the Shares subject to the related Option upon the surrender of the right
to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option. A Tandem SAR may
be exercised only with respect to the Shares for which its related Option
is then exercisable.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, with
respect to a Tandem SAR granted in connection with an ISO: (i) the Tandem
SAR will expire no later than the expiration of the underlying ISO; (ii)
the value of the payout with respect to the Tandem SAR may be for no more
than one hundred percent (100%) of the difference between the Option Price
of the underlying ISO and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to
the underlying ISO at the time the Tandem SAR is exercised; and (iii) the
Tandem SAR may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of the Shares
subject to the ISO exceeds the Option Price of the ISO.
10
<PAGE> 11

exercised upon the exercise of the related Options. The deemed exercise of
Affiliated SARs shall not necessitate a reduction in the number of related
options.
7.4 EXERCISE OF FREESTANDING SARS. Freestanding SARs may be exercised upon
whatever terms and conditions the Committee, in its sole discretion,
imposes upon them.
7.5 SAR AGREEMENT. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement

provisions as the Committee shall determine.
7.6 TERM OF SARS. The term of a SAR granted under the Plan shall be determined
by the Committee, in its sole discretion; provided, however, that such
term shall not exceed ten (10) years.
7.7 PAYMENT OF SAR AMOUNT. Upon exercise of a SAR, a Participant shall be
entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by
multiplying:
(a) The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date
of exercise over the grant price; by
(b) The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.
At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon SAR exercise may be
in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof.
7.8 RULE 16b-3 REQUIREMENTS. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan,
the Committee may impose such conditions on exercise of a SAR (including,
without limitation, the right of the Committee to limit the time of
exercise to specified periods) as may be required to satisfy the
requirements of Section 16 (or any successor rule) of the Exchange Act.
For example, if the Participant is an Insider, the ability of the
Participant to exercise SARs for cash will be limited to Window Periods.
However, if the Committee determines that the Participant is not an
Insider, or if the securities laws change to permit greater freedom of
exercise of SARs, then the Committee may permit exercise at any point in
time, to the extent the SARs are otherwise exercisable under the Plan.
7.9 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT DUE TO DEATH, DISABILITY, OR RETIREMENT.
(a) TERMINATION BY DEATH. In the event the employment of a Participant
is terminated by reason of death, all outstanding SARs which are

persons as shall have been named as the Participant's beneficiary,
or by such persons that have

<PAGE> 12
acquired the Participant's rights under the SAR by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution.
SARs which are not exercisable as of the date of death shall be
forfeited and returned to the Company; provided, however, that the
Committee may, at its sole discretion, provide for accelerated
vesting of unvested SARs upon such terms as the Committee deems
advisable.

Participant is terminated by reason of Disability, all outstanding
SARs which are exercisable as of the date the Committee determines

(1) year after the date that the Committee determines the definition
of Disability to have been satisfied, whichever period is shorter.
SARs which are not exercisable as of the date the Committee
determines the definition of Disability to have been satisfied shall
be forfeited and returned to the Company; provided, however, that
the Committee may, at its sole discretion, provide for accelerated
vesting of unvested SARs upon such terms as the Committee deems
advisable.
(c) TERMINATION BY RETIREMENT. In the event the employment of a
Participant is terminated by reason of Retirement, all outstanding
SARs which are exercisable as of the date of Retirement shall remain
exercisable at any time prior to their expiration date, or for three
(3) years after the effective date of Retirement, whichever period

SARs which are not exercisable as of the date of Retirement shall be
forfeited and returned to the Company; provided, however, that the
Committee may, at its sole discretion, provide for accelerated
vesting of unvested SARs upon such terms as the Committee deems
advisable.
(d) EMPLOYMENT TERMINATION FOLLOWED BY DEATH. In the event that a
Participant's employment terminates by reason of Disability or
Retirement, and within the exercise period following such
termination the Participant dies, then the remaining exercise period
under outstanding vested SARs shall equal the longer of: (i) one (1)
year following death; or (ii) the remaining portion of the exercise
period which was triggered by the employment termination. Such SARs
shall be exercisable by such person or persons who shall have been
named as the Participant's beneficiary, or by such persons who have
acquired the Participant's rights under the SAR by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution.
7.10 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR OTHER REASONS. If the employment of a
Participant shall terminate for any reason other than the reasons set
forth in Section 7.9 (and other than for Cause), all SARs held by the
Participant which are not vested as of the effective date of
12
<PAGE> 13
employment termination immediately shall be forfeited to the Company (and
shall once again become available for grant under the Plan). However, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to immediately
vest all or any portion of such SARs, subject to such terms as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.
SARs which are vested as of the effective date of employment termination
may be exercised by the Participant within the period beginning on the
effective date of employment termination, and ending three (3) months
after such date.
If the employment of a Participant shall be terminated by the Company for
Cause, all outstanding SARs held by the Participant immediately shall be
forfeited to the Company and no additional exercise period shall be
allowed, regardless of the vested status of the SARs.
7.11 NONTRANSFERABILITY OF SARS. No SAR granted under the Plan may be sold,
transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further,
all SARs granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable
during his or her lifetime only by such Participant.
ARTICLE 8. RESTRICTED STOCK
8.1 GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Subject to the terms and provisions of the
Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares
of Restricted Stock to eligible Employees in such amounts as the Committee
shall determine, but in no event shall the total number of Shares of
Restricted Stock available for grant by the Committee exceed 750,000
Shares.
8.2 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced
by a Restricted Stock Agreement that shall specify the Period of
Restriction, or Periods, the number of Restricted Stock Shares granted,
and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine.
8.3 TRANSFERABILITY. Except as provided in this Article 8, the Shares of
Restricted Stock granted herein may not be sold, transferred, pledged,
assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the
applicable Period of Restriction established by the Committee and
specified in the Restricted Stock Agreement, or upon earlier satisfaction
of any other conditions, as specified by the Committee in its sole
discretion and set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement. However, in no
event may any Restricted Stock granted under the Plan become vested in a
Participant prior to six (6) months following the date of its grant. All
rights with respect to the Restricted Stock granted to a Participant under
the Plan shall be available during his or her lifetime only to such
Participant.
8.4 OTHER RESTRICTIONS. The Committee shall impose such other conditions
and/or restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to
the Plan as it may deem advisable including, without limitation, a
requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase price for each
Share of Restricted Stock, restrictions based upon the achievement of
specific
13
<PAGE> 14
performance goals (Companywide, divisional, and/or individual), and/or
restrictions under applicable Federal or state securities laws; and may
legend the certificates representing Restricted Stock to give appropriate
notice of such restrictions.
8.5 CERTIFICATE LEGEND. In addition to any legends placed on certificates
pursuant to Section 8.4 herein, each certificate representing Shares of
Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may bear the following
legend:
"The sale or other transfer of the Shares of stock represented by
this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of
law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer as set forth in
the Tesoro Petroleum Corporation Executive Long-Term Incentive Plan,
and in a Restricted Stock Agreement. A copy of the Plan and such
Restricted Stock Agreement may be obtained from Tesoro Petroleum
Corporation."
The Company shall have the right to retain the certificates representing
Shares of Restricted Stock in the Company's possession until such time as
all conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares have been
satisfied.
8.6 REMOVAL OF RESTRICTIONS. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 8,
Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant made
under the Plan shall become freely transferable by the Participant after
the last day of the Period of Restriction. Once the Shares are released
from the restrictions, the Participant shall be entitled to have the
legend required by Section 8.5 removed from his or her share certificate.
8.7 VOTING RIGHTS. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding
Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting
rights with respect to those Shares.
8.8 DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. During the Period of Restriction,
Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be
entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with
respect to those Shares while they are so held. If any such dividends or
distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares shall be subject to the same
restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of
Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.
In the event that any dividend constitutes a "derivative security" or an
"equity security" pursuant to Rule 16(a) under the Exchange Act, such
dividend shall be subject to a vesting period equal to the longer of: (i)
the remaining vesting period of the Shares of Restricted Stock with
respect to which the dividend is paid; or (ii) six months. The Committee
shall establish procedures for the application of this provision.
8.9 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT DUE TO DEATH, DISABILITY, OR RETIREMENT. In the
event the employment of a Participant is terminated by reason of death,
Disability, or Retirement, all unvested Shares of Restricted Stock shall
immediately be forfeited by the Participant;
14
<PAGE> 15
provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have
the right to provide for accelerated vesting of some or all unvested
Shares of Restricted Stock, upon such terms as the Committee deems
advisable. The holder of the certificates of Restricted Stock shall be
entitled to have any nontransferability legends required under Sections
8.4 and 8.5 of this Plan removed from the Share certificates.
8.10 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR OTHER REASONS. If the employment of a
Participant shall terminate for any reason other than those specifically
set forth in Section 8.9 herein, all Shares of Restricted Stock held by
the Participant which are not vested as of the effective date of
employment termination immediately shall be forfeited (and, subject to
Section 4.2 herein, shall once again become available for grant under the
Plan).
With the exception of a termination of employment for Cause, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to provide for
lapsing of the restrictions on Restricted Stock following employment
termination, upon such terms and provisions as it deems appropriate.
ARTICLE 9. PERFORMANCE UNITS AND PERFORMANCE SHARES
9.1 GRANT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Subject to the terms of the Plan,
Performance Units and Performance Shares may be granted to eligible
Employees at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the
Committee. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the
number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each
Participant.
9.2 VALUE OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Each Performance Unit shall have an
initial value that is established by the Committee at the time of grant.
Each Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. The Committee shall set
performance goals in its discretion which, depending on the extent to
which they are met, will determine the number and/or value of Performance
Units/Shares that will be paid out to the Participants. The time period
during which the performance goals must be met shall be called a
"Performance Period." Performance Periods shall, in all cases, exceed six
(6) months in length.
9.3 EARNING OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. After the applicable Performance
Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units/Shares shall be entitled
to receive payout on the number of Performance Units/Shares earned by the
Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of
the extent to which the corresponding performance goals have been
achieved.
9.4 FORM AND TIMING OF PAYMENT OF PERFORMANCE UNITS/SHARES. Payment of each
Performance Units/Shares shall be made in a single lump sum, within
forty-five (45) calendar days following the close of the applicable
Performance Period. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay earned
Performance Units/Shares in the form of cash or in Shares (or in a
combination thereof), which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to
the value of the earned Performance Units/Shares at the close of the
applicable Performance Period.
15
<PAGE> 16
Prior to the beginning of each Performance Period, Participants may elect
to defer the receipt of Performance Unit/Share payout upon such terms as
the Committee deems appropriate.
9.5 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT DUE TO DEATH, DISABILITY, RETIREMENT, OR
INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION (WITHOUT CAUSE). In the event the employment of a
Participant is terminated by reason of death, Disability, Retirement, or
involuntary termination without Cause during a Performance Period, the
Participant shall receive a prorated payout of the Performance
Units/Shares. The prorated payout shall be determined by the Committee, in
its sole discretion, and shall be based upon the length of time that the
Participant held the Performance Units/Shares during the Performance
Period, and shall further be adjusted based on the achievement of the
preestablished performance goals.
Payment of earned Performance Units/Shares shall be made at the same time
payments are made to Participants who did not terminate employment during
the applicable Performance Period. However, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, shall have the right to accelerate the timing of this payout,
upon such terms and provisions as it deems appropriate.
9.6 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR OTHER REASONS. In the event that a
Participant's employment terminates for any reason other than those
reasons set forth in Section 9.5 herein, all Performance Units/Shares
shall be forfeited by the Participant to the Company, and shall once again
be available for grant under the Plan. However, the Committee, in its sole
discretion, may provide a payout on any or all Performance Units/Shares,
upon such times and provisions as it deems appropriate.
9.7 NONTRANSFERABILITY. Performance Units/Shares may not be sold, transferred,
pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further a Participant's
rights under the Plan shall be exercisable during the Participant's
lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant's legal
representative.
ARTICLE 10. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION
Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or
beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any
benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or
she receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all
prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the
Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing
with the Company during the Participant's lifetime. In the absence of any such
designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid
to the Participant's estate.
ARTICLE 11. DEFERRALS
The Committee may permit a Participant to defer such Participant's receipt of
the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to
such Participant by virtue of the exercise of an Option or SAR, the lapse or
waiver of restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock, or the satisfaction of
any requirements or goals with respect to Performance Units/Shares. If any such
16
<PAGE> 17
deferral election is required or permitted, the Committee shall, in its sole
discretion, establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals.
ARTICLE 12. RIGHTS OF EMPLOYEES
12.1 EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way
the right of the Company to terminate any Participant's employment at any
time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ
of the Company.
For purposes of the Plan, transfer of employment of a Participant between
the Company and any one of its Subsidiaries (or between Subsidiaries)
shall not be deemed a termination of employment.
12.2 PARTICIPATION. No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive
an Award under this Plan, or having been so selected, to be selected to
receive a future Award.
ARTICLE 13. CHANGE IN CONTROL
Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, unless otherwise specifically
prohibited by the terms of Section 18 herein:
(a) Any and all Options and SARs granted hereunder shall become immediately
exercisable;
(b) Any restriction periods and restrictions imposed on Restricted Shares
shall lapse, and within ten (10) business days after the occurrence of a
Change in Control, the stock certificates representing Shares of
Restricted Stock, without any restrictions or legend thereon, shall be
delivered to the applicable Participants;
(c) The target payout opportunity attainable under all outstanding Performance
Units and Performance Shares shall be deemed to have been earned for the
portion of the Performance Period(s) that passed as of the effective date
of the Change in Control. This pro rata value shall be paid out in cash to
Participants within thirty (30) days following the effective date of the
Change in Control. However, regardless of the above, Performance Units or
Performance Shares that were granted less than six (6) months prior to the
effective date of the Change in Control shall be forfeited in their
entirety, and receive no accelerated payout.
(d) Subject to Article 14 herein, the Committee shall have the authority to
make any modifications to the Awards as determined by the Committee to be
appropriate before the effective date of the Change in Control.
(e) In the event that following the Change in Control the Shares are no longer
traded over a national public securities exchange, Participants holding
Options shall have the right to require the Company to make a cash payment
to them in exchange for their Options. Such cash payment shall be
contingent upon the Option holder surrendering his or her Option. The
amount of the cash payment shall be determined by adding the total
"spread" on all
17
<PAGE> 18
outstanding Options. For this purpose, the total "spread" shall equal the
sum of the differences between: (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on
the date the Option is surrendered by the Participant; and (ii) the Option
Price applicable to each Share held under Option.
ARTICLE 14. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION
14.1 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION. At any time and from time to
time, the Board may terminate, amend, or modify the Plan. However, without
the approval of the stockholders of the Company (as may be required by the
Code, by the insider trading rules of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, by
any national securities exchange or system on which the Shares are then
listed or reported, or by a regulatory body having jurisdiction with
respect hereto), no such termination, amendment, or modification may:
(a) Materially increase the total number of Shares which may be issued
under this Plan, except as provided in Section 4.3 herein; or
(b) Materially modify the eligibility requirements; or
(c) Materially increase the benefits accruing under the Plan.
14.2 AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. No termination, amendment, or modification of
the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously
granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant
holding such Award.
ARTICLE 15. WITHHOLDING
15.1 TAX WITHHOLDING. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct
or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount
sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local taxes (including the
Participant's FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect
to any taxable event arising or as a result of this Plan.
15.2 SHARE WITHHOLDING. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise
of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, or
upon any other taxable event hereunder, Participants may elect, subject to
the approval of the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in
whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares having a Fair
Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum
statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction. All
elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the
Participant, and elections by Insiders shall additionally comply with the
applicable requirement set forth in (a) or (b) of this Section 15.2.
18
<PAGE> 19

Insider must either:
(i) Deliver written notice of the stock withholding election to
the Committee at least six (6) months prior to the date
specified by the Insider on which the exercise of the Award is
to occur, or
(ii) Make the stock withholding election in connection with an
exercise of an Award which occurs during a Window Period.
(b) AWARDS HAVING A FIXED EXERCISE/PAYOUT SCHEDULE WHICH IS OUTSIDE
INSIDER'S CONTROL. The Insider must either.

which occurs prior to the scheduled taxable event relating to
the Award (for this purpose, an election may be made prior to
such a Window Period, provided that it becomes effective
during a Window Period occurring prior to the applicable
taxable event).
ARTICLE 16. INDEMNIFICATION
Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the
Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from
any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably
incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action,
suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may
be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and
against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof,
with the Company's approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any
judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her, provided he
or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and
defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or
her own behalf.
The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other
rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the
Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise,
or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
ARTICLE 17. SUCCESSORS
All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to Awards granted
hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the
existence of such successor is the result of

a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.
ARTICLE 18. LEGAL CONSTRUCTION

masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural
shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural.
18.2 SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal

18.3 REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares
under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and

this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule

null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the
