                 15, 1992 (amending Item 14 of the Company's Registration

                 been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining
                 unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated into and made a
                 part of this Registration Statement from the date of filing of

ITEM 4.          DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

ITEM 5.          INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         Not applicable.


ITEM 6.          INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         The Florida Business Corporation Act, as amended (the "Florida Act"),
provides that, in general, a business corporation may indemnify any person who
is or was a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right
of, the corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director
or officer of the corporation, against liability incurred in connection with
such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, provided certain standards are
met, including that such officer or director acted in good faith and in a
manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of the corporation, and provided further that, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, the officer or director had no reasonable cause
to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  In the case of proceedings by or
in the right of the corporation, the Florida Act provides that, in general, a





                                      II-1

<PAGE>   3
corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to any such
proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer
of the corporation against expenses and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such
proceeding, including any appeal thereof, provided that such person acted in
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim as to which such person
is adjudged liable unless a court of competent jurisdiction determines upon
application that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity.
To the extent that any officers or directors are successful on the merits or
otherwise in the defense of any of the proceedings described above, the Florida
Act provides that the corporation is required to indemnify such officers or
directors against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection
therewith.  However, the Florida Act further provides that, in general,
indemnification or advancement of expenses shall not be made to or on behalf of
any officer or director if a judgment or other final adjudication establishes
that his or her actions, or omissions to act, were material to the cause of
action so adjudicated and constitute: (i) a violation of the criminal law,
unless the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe it was unlawful; (ii)
a transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal
benefit; (iii) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which the
director has voted for or assented to a distribution made in violation of the
Florida Act or the corporation's articles of incorporation; or (iv) willful
misconduct or a conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation
in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in
its favor or in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder.  Article IV
of the Company's By-laws provides that the Company shall indemnify any
director, officer or employee or any former director, officer or employee to
the full extent permitted by law.

                          "IRS") in a timely manner to obtain a determination letter from the IRS to the effect that such Plan is

ITEM 9.          UNDERTAKINGS.

         (a)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

         (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

                 (i)      To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                 (ii)     To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement; and

                 (iii)    To include any material information with respect to
the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

         Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

         (2)  That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.

         (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

         (b)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of
the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

         (h)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6, or
otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                 (c)      No Compensation in excess of $150,000 (adjusted by
         the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with
         Section 401(a)(17)(B) of the Code) shall be taken into account for any
         Employee.  For purposes of determining whether Compensation exceeds
         $150,000 (adjusted as described above), if any Employee is a Family
         Member of a Highly Compensated Employee who is (i) a 5% owner of an
         Employer, or (ii) one of the ten Highly Compensated Employees paid the
         greatest amount of compensation during the Plan Year, then such Family
         Member shall not be considered as a separate Employee and any
         compensation paid to such Family Member shall be treated as if it were
         paid to or on behalf of the related Highly Compensated Employee.

                 (d)      If Compensation attributable to one or more Family
         Members and a related Highly Compensated Employee exceeds $150,000 (as
         adjusted) for any Plan Year, each Participant within the aggregation
         group who has attained age 19 shall first be credited with an equal
         dollar amount of Compensation, which shall not exceed the lesser of
         his actual compensation or one-half of $150,000 (as adjusted) for any
         Plan Year.  If the compensation credited under the preceding sentence
         to Participants within the aggregation group who have attained age 19
         does not equal $150,000 (as adjusted), the Participant within the
         aggregation group who has attained age 19 and who has not been
         credited with his total actual compensation then shall be credited
         with his additional actual compensation, which shall not exceed the
         lesser of his remaining actual compensation or the difference between
         $150,000 (as adjusted) and the sum of the compensation credited
         pursuant to the preceding sentence.  If the compensation credited
         under the two immediately preceding sentences to Participants within
         the aggregation group who have attained age 19 does not equal $150,000
         (as adjusted), the Participants within the aggregation group who have
         not attained age 19 shall be credited with proportionate shares of
         their compensation, not to exceed, in the aggregate, the difference
         between $150,000 (as adjusted) and the sum of the compensation
         credited under the two immediately preceding sentences.

         1.16    "DIRECT ROLLOVER" shall mean a payment of an Eligible Rollover
Distribution by the Plan to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the

         a result of his retirement, disability or other severance of
         employment as provided in section 8.1, 8.2, or 8.3,

                 (b)      a Participant's surviving Eligible Spouse who is
         entitled to death benefits payable pursuant to section 8.4, and

                 (c)      a Participant's spouse or former spouse who is the
         alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, as defined
         in Section 414(p) of the Code, entitled to benefits payable as
         provided by section 15.2.

than the Publix Stock Fund) shall mean, with respect to a Valuation Period, the
aggregate of the unrealized appreciation or depreciation accruing to the Pooled

sustained by the Pooled Investment Fund during such period, whether from
investments or from the sale or exchange of assets.  The Earnings attributable
to a separate portion of a Segregated Investment Fund credited to the

determined by multiplying the number of shares of the Segregated Investment
Fund credited to the Participant's Savings Contributions Account by the

the value of each share as of the most recent preceding Valuation Date.  The
Earnings attributable to any portion the Publix Stock Fund credited to an Other
Investments Account shall mean, with respect to a Valuation Period, (i) cash
dividends received on shares of common stock of the Company allocated to
Participants' Employer Securities Accounts and (ii) the aggregate of the

portion of the income earned or the loss sustained by, the portion of the
Publix Stock Fund during such period that is invested in assets other than
shares of common stock of the Company.

         1.20    "EFFECTIVE DATE" of this Plan shall mean January 1, 1995.

         1.21    "ELIGIBILITY DATE" shall mean the Saturday of the week
(beginning on Saturday and ending the following Friday) during which an
Employee's Anniversary Date occurs, if he has completed his first Year of
Service and has attained age 19 as of the day immediately preceding such
anniversary.  If an Employee completes his first Year of Service prior to
reaching age 19, his Eligibility Date shall mean the Saturday of the week (as
specified above) during which the Employee's 19th birthday occurs.

         1.22    "ELIGIBLE RETIREMENT PLAN" shall mean an individual retirement
account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement
annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in
Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of
the Code, that accepts a Distributee's Eligible Rollover Distribution.
However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to a Participant's
surviving Eligible Spouse who is entitled to death benefits payable pursuant to
section 8.4, an Eligible Retirement Plan shall mean an individual retirement
account or individual retirement annuity.

                          (2)     for a specified period of ten years or more;

                 (b)      any distribution to the extent such distribution is
         required under Section 410(a)(9) of the Code; and

                 (c)      the portion of any distribution that is not
         includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion
         for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities).

Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this section, an Eligible Rollover
Distribution shall not include one or more distributions during a Plan Year if
the aggregate amount distributed during the Year is less than $200 (adjusted
under such regulations as may be issued from time to time by the Secretary of
the Treasury).

                 earned income from sources within the United States.

                 (b)      The term "Employee" shall also include any leased
         employee of the Employer; provided, however, that contributions or
         benefits provided by the leasing organization that are attributable to
         services performed for such Employer shall be

<PAGE>   9
         treated as provided by such Employer.  The preceding sentence shall
         not apply to any leased employee if:

                          (1)     leased employees do not constitute more than
                 twenty percent (20%) of the Employer's Non-Highly Compensated

                          (2)     such leased employee is covered by a money
                 purchase pension plan providing:

                          contribution rate of at least 10% of compensation (as

                                  (B)      immediate participation, and

                                  (C)      a full and immediate Vested Interest.

         person, has performed services for the Employer (or for the Employer

         period of at least one year and such services are of a type
         historically performed by employees in the business field of such

         1.30    "HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEE" shall mean any Employee during
the Plan Year or the immediately preceding Plan Year

                 (a)      who was a 5% owner of an Employer or an Affiliate;

                 (b)      whose Section 415 Compensation was more than $75,000
         (adjusted under such regulations as may be issued by the Secretary of
         Treasury);

                 (c)      whose Section 415 Compensation was more than $50,000
         (adjusted under such regulations as may be issued by the Secretary of
         Treasury), and who was a member of the "top paid group."  As used
         herein, "top paid group" shall mean all Employees who are in the top
         20% of the Employer's or an Affiliate's work force on the basis of
         Section 415 Compensation paid during the year; or

                 (d)      who was an officer of an Employer or an Affiliate and
         received compensation in excess of 50% of the amount in effect under
         Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for any such Plan Year (adjusted
         under such regulations as may be issued by the Secretary of the
         Treasury); provided, however, that in no event shall more than 50
         Employees (or, if less, the greater of three Employees or ten percent
         (10%) of the Employees) be considered Highly Compensated Employees
         merely by reason of their status as officers of an Employer or an
         Affiliate, and, provided further, that if no officer of an Employer or
         an Affiliate received compensation in excess of 50% of the amount in
         effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for such Plan Year, then
         the highest paid officer shall be considered a Highly Compensated
         Employee.

Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this section, for purposes of
determining whether an Employee shall be treated as a "Highly Compensated
Employee" for the current Plan Year, an Employee who is not described in
subsection (b), (c) or (d) for the immediately preceding Plan Year shall not be
treated as subject to subsection (b), (c) or (d) unless such Employee is a
member of the group consisting of the 100 Employees paid the greatest Section
415 Compensation during the current Plan Year.  The term "Highly Compensated
Employee" shall also mean any former Employee who separated from service (or
was deemed to have separated from service) prior to the Plan Year, performs no
service for an Employer during the Plan Year, and was an actively employed
Highly Compensated Employee in the separation year or any Plan Year ending on
or after the date the Employee attained age 55.  For purposes of determining
whether a Participant is a Highly Compensated Employee, if any Employee is a
Family Member of a Highly Compensated Employee who is (i) a 5% owner of an
Employer, or (ii) one of the ten Highly Compensated Employees paid the greatest
amount of Section 415 Compensation during the Plan Year, then such Family
Member shall not be considered as a separate Employee and any Section 415
Compensation paid to such Family Member (and any applicable benefit or
contribution





                                       8.
<PAGE>   11
on behalf of such Family Member) shall be treated as if it were paid to or on
behalf of the related Highly Compensated Employee.  For purposes of this
section, each Employee's Section 415 Compensation shall be adjusted as required
by Section 414(q)(7)(B) of the Code.

         1.31    (a)      "HOUR OF SERVICE" shall mean

                          (1)     an hour for which an Employee is paid, or
                 entitled to payment, for the performance of duties for an
                 Employer or an Affiliate;

                          (2)     an hour for which an Employee is paid, or
                 entitled to payment, by an Employer or an Affiliate on account
                 of a period of time during which no duties are performed
                 (irrespective of whether the employment relationship has
                 terminated) due to vacation, holiday, illness, incapacity
                 (including disability), lay-off, jury duty, military duty or
                 leave of absence.  Notwithstanding the preceding,

                                  (A)      an hour for which an Employee is
                          directly or indirectly paid, or entitled to payment,
                          on account of a period during which no duties are
                          performed shall not be credited under this section
                          1.31(a)(2) to the Employee if such payment is made or
                          due under a plan maintained solely for the purpose of
                          complying with applicable workmen's compensation,
                          unemployment compensation or disability insurance
                          laws; and

                                  (B)      an hour shall not be credited for a
                          payment which solely reimburses an Employee for
                          medical or medically related expenses incurred by the
                          Employee;

                          (3)     an hour which otherwise would normally be
                 credited to an Employee but for the fact that such Employee is
                 on an unpaid leave of absence authorized by an Employer or an
                 Affiliate.  The Hours of Service to be credited to an Employee
                 under the provisions of this section 1.31(a)(3) are the Hours
                 of Service that otherwise would normally have been credited to
                 such Employee but for the absence in question or, in any case
                 in which the Administrator is unable to determine such hours,
                 the number of Hours of Service credited to such Employee shall
                 be equal to forty (40) Hours of Service for each week of the
                 authorized leave of absence.  Notwithstanding the preceding,
                 no Hours of Service shall be credited under this section
                 1.31(a)(3) to an Employee on account of any portion of an
                 authorized, unpaid leave of absence that exceeds six months
                 (whether or not such period occurs in a single Plan Year);





                                       9.
<PAGE>   12
                          (4)     an hour credited to an Employee who has been
                 granted by his Employer an extended, unpaid leave of absence
                 solely for the purpose of serving in the armed forces of the
                 United States of America, whether voluntarily or as a result
                 of the operation of a compulsory military service law.  Such
                 extended, unpaid leave of absence shall include the ninety
                 (90) day period immediately following his discharge from such
                 armed forces, or any longer period after his discharge in
                 which his employment rights are guaranteed by law.  The Hours
                 of Service to be credited to an Employee under the provisions
                 of this section 1.31(a)(4) shall be equal to forty (40) Hours
                 of Service for each week of the extended, unpaid leave of
                 absence.  Notwithstanding the preceding, no Hours of Service
                 shall be credited under this section 1.31(a)(4) to an Employee
                 on account of any portion of an extended, unpaid leave of
                 absence that exceeds five years, unless the Employee's rights
                 are otherwise guaranteed by law.  Furthermore, no Hours of
                 Service shall be credited under this section 1.31(a)(4) to an
                 Employee on account of any portion of such a leave of absence
                 if the Employee fails to obtain an honorable discharge upon
                 completion of his military service, unless otherwise required
                 by law; and

                          (5)     an hour for which back pay, irrespective of
                 mitigation of damages, is either awarded or agreed to by an
                 Employer or an Affiliate; provided, however, that the same
                 Hour of Service shall not be credited both under section
                 1.31(a)(1), (2), (3), or (4), as the case may be, and under
                 this section 1.31(a)(5).  Crediting of an Hour of Service for
                 back pay awarded or agreed to with respect to periods
                 described in sections 1.31(a)(2), (3), and (4) shall be
                 subject to the limitations set forth in those sections.

         The definition set forth in this section 1.31(a) is subject to the
         special rules contained in Department of Labor Regulations Sections
         2530.200b-2(b) and (c), and any regulations amending or superseding
         such Sections, which special rules are hereby incorporated in the
         definition of "Hour of Service" by this reference.

                 (b)      Notwithstanding the provisions of section 1.31(a),
         each Employee who was employed by the Company, Publix Food Stores,
         Inc., or Publix Market, Inc. on October 1, 1975, shall be credited
         with one thousand (1,000) Hours of Service for each twelve (12)
         continuous months of service commencing with his most recent
         employment commencement date prior to October 1, 1975, and ending
         October 1, 1975.  In addition, each such Employee shall be credited
         with forty (40) Hours of Service for each week of employment during
         the period beginning on his most





                                      10.
<PAGE>   13
         recent Anniversary Date prior to October 1, 1975, and ending on
         October 1, 1975.

                 (c)      (1)     Notwithstanding the other provisions of this
                 "Hour of Service" definition, in the case of an Employee who
                 is absent from work for any period by reason of her pregnancy,
                 by reason of the birth of a child of the Employee, by reason
                 of the placement of a child with the Employee in connection
                 with the adoption of such child by the Employee or for
                 purposes of caring for such child for a reasonable period
                 beginning immediately following such birth or placement, the
                 Employee shall be treated as having those Hours of Service
                 described in section 1.31(c)(2).

                          (2)     The Hours of Service to be credited to an
                 Employee under the provisions of section 1.31(c)(1) are the
                 Hours of Service that otherwise would normally have been
                 credited to such Employee but for the absence in question or,
                 in any case in which the Plan is unable to determine such
                 hours, eight Hours of Service per day of such absence;
                 provided, however, that the total number of hours treated as
                 Hours of Service under this section 1.31(c) by reason of any
                 such pregnancy or placement shall not exceed 501 hours.

                          (3)     The hours treated as Hours of Service under
                 this section 1.31(c) shall be credited only in the consecutive
                 12-month period beginning with the Employee's Anniversary Date
                 in which the absence from work begins, if the crediting is
                 necessary to prevent a One Year Break in Service in such
                 12-month period or, in any other case, in the immediately
                 following 12-month period.

                          (4)     Credit shall be given for Hours of Service
                 under this section 1.31(c) solely for purposes of determining
                 whether a One Year Break in Service has occurred for
                 participation or vesting purposes; credit shall not be given
                 hereunder for any other purposes (including, without
                 limitation, benefit accrual).

                          (5)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this
                 section 1.31(c), no credit shall be given under this section
                 1.31(c) unless the Employee in question furnishes to the Plan
                 Administrator such timely information as the Administrator may
                 reasonably require to establish that the absence from work is
                 for reasons referred to in section 1.31(c)(1) and the number
                 of days for which there was such an absence.

         1.32    "KEY EMPLOYEE" shall mean any Employee or former Employee (and
the beneficiaries of such Employee) who is at any time during the Plan Year (or
was at any time during the four preceding Plan Years)

                 (a)      an officer of an Employer or an Affiliate having an
         aggregate annual compensation from the Employer and its Affiliates in
         excess of 50% of the amount in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of
         the Code for any such Plan Year, provided, however, that no more than

of providing benefits to the Participants and enabling them to share in the
growth of their Employer.  Except as otherwise permitted by law, in no event

         3.2     MISTAKE OF FACT.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
section 3.1, any contribution made by an Employer to this Plan by a mistake of
fact may be returned to the Employer within one year after the payment of the
contribution; and any contribution made by an Employer that is conditioned upon
the deductibility of the contribution under Section 404 of the Code (each
contribution shall be presumed to be so conditioned unless the Employer
specifies otherwise) may be returned to the Employer if the deduction is
disallowed and the contribution is returned (to the extent disallowed) within
one year after the disallowance of the deduction.

         3.3     PARTICIPANT'S RIGHTS.  The establishment of this Plan shall
not be considered as giving any Employee, or any other person, any legal or
equitable right against any Employer, any Affiliate, the Plan Administrator,
the Primary Trustee, the Publix Stock Fund Trustee or the principal or the
income of the Trusts, except to the extent otherwise provided by law.  The
establishment of this Plan shall not be considered as giving any Employee, or
any other person, the right to be retained in the employ of any Employer or any
Affiliate.

         3.4     QUALIFIED PLAN.  This Plan and the Trusts are intended to
qualify under the Code as a tax-free employees' plan and trust, and the

action or direct the Trustees to take any action whatsoever that would result

of facts.

         4.8     RECORDS.  The Plan Administrator shall keep a complete record
of all its proceedings as the administrator of the Plan and all data necessary
for the administration of the Plan.  All of the foregoing records and data

law, the decision of the Plan Administrator in matters within its jurisdiction

         possible, but not later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the
         application is filed with the Administrator; and, in the event that no
         action has been taken within such ninety (90) or one hundred eighty
         (180) day period, the claim shall be deemed to be denied for the

         purposes of section 4.10(b).  In the event that the claim is denied,

         material information is necessary and an explanation of the claim

                 (b)      If a claim is denied (either in the form of a written
         denial or by the failure of the Plan Administrator, within the
         required time period, to notify the claimant of the action taken), a
         claimant or his duly authorized representative shall have sixty (60)
         days after the receipt of such denial to petition the Plan
         Administrator in writing for a full and fair review of the denial,
         during which time the claimant or his duly authorized representative
         shall have the right to review pertinent documents and to submit
         issues and comments in writing.  The Plan Administrator shall promptly
         review the claim and shall make a decision not later than sixty (60)
         days after receipt of the request for review, unless special
         circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which
         event a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later
         than one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt of the request
         for review.  If such an extension is required because of special
         circumstances, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to
         the claimant prior to the commencement of the extension.  The decision
         of the review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons
         for the decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by
         the claimant, with specific references to the Plan provisions on which
         the decision is based.

accountants, counsel (who may be counsel for an Employer), specialists and
other persons that it deems necessary and desirable in connection with the
administration of this Plan.  The Administrator, by action of its Board of

                 year, the Administrator, upon notification from the
                 Participant or his Employer, shall refund to such Participant
                 the portion of such excess that is attributable to savings
                 contributions to the Plan, increased by the earnings thereon
                 for such calendar year and the subsequent period preceding the
                 date of the refund (such earnings shall be determined by the
                 Plan Administrator in a manner consistent with the provisions
                 of section 7.4 and Treasury Regulation Section
                 1.402(g)-1(e)(5)) and reduced by any excess savings
                 contributions and earnings for the Plan Year beginning with or
                 within the calendar year that have been previously distributed
                 to the Participant in accordance with the provisions of
                 section 6.1(f).  Any such refund shall be made on or before
                 April 15 immediately following the calendar year in which the
                 excess savings contribution is made.

                          (2)     If a Participant's savings contributions,
                 together with any elective contributions by the Participant to
                 any other plans intended to qualify under Sections 401(k),
                 403(b), 408(k) or 457 of the Code, exceed the limitation set
                 forth in section 6.1(a)(1) for any calendar year (after the
                 application of section 6.1(b)(1)), the Administrator may
                 refund to such Participant, at the Participant's request, the
                 portion of such excess that is attributable to savings
                 contributions to the Plan, increased by the earnings thereon
                 for such calendar year and the subsequent period preceding the
                 date of the refund (determined as provided in section
                 6.1(b)(1)) and reduced by any excess savings contributions and
                 earnings for the Plan Year beginning with or within the
                 calendar year that have been previously distributed to the
                 Participant in accordance with the provisions of section
                 6.1(f).  Any such refund shall be made on or before April 15
                 immediately following the calendar year in which the excess
                 savings contribution is made.

                          (3)     Excess savings contributions and earnings
                 shall be determined for purposes of section 6.1(a)(1), section
                 6.1(b)(1), and section 6.1(b)(2) after taking into account any
                 previous refunds to the Participant of excess savings
                 contributions and earnings for the Plan Year ending with or
                 within the calendar year made in accordance with the
                 provisions of section 6.1(f).

                 (c)      Any salary reduction agreement shall be executed and
         in effect prior to the first day of the first pay period to which it
         applies.  Any such agreement may be revised by the Participant, with
         the approval of the Administrator, as of any pay period if the
         revision is received by the Plan Administrator prior to the first day
         of the first pay period to which the revision applies.

                 (d)      The Administrator shall have the right to require any
         Participant to reduce his savings contributions under any such
         agreement, or to refuse deferral of all or part of the amount set
         forth in such agreement, if necessary to comply with the requirements
         of this Plan and the Code.

                 (e)      A Participant may suspend further savings
         contributions to the Plan at any time, provided the request for such
         suspension is received by the Plan Administrator prior to the first
         day of the first pay period to which such suspension applies.  Any
         Participant who has previously entered into a salary reduction
         agreement and who suspends further savings contributions relating to
         periodic pay may reinstate such contributions by providing written
         notice to the Plan Administrator prior to the first day of the first
         pay period to which it applies; provided, however, that such pay
         period shall not begin less than 90 days after the suspension of
         savings contributions became effective.

                 (f)      (1)     In the event that the savings contributions
                 of Highly Compensated Employees exceed the limitations set
                 forth in section 6.3, such excess (plus the earnings thereon
                 for the Plan Year to which the excess contributions relate),
                 determined as set forth below, shall be distributed to the
                 Highly Compensated Employees on or before the 15th day of the
                 third month after the close of the Plan Year to which the
                 excess contributions relate.  Notwithstanding the preceding
                 sentence, the Plan Administrator may delay the distribution of
                 any excess savings contributions (plus the earnings thereon
                 for the Plan Year to which the excess contributions relate)
                 attributable to an Employer beyond the 15th day of the third
                 month of such Plan Year, if the Employer consents to such
                 delay and the Administrator refunds all such excess amounts
                 not later than 12 months after the close of the Plan Year to
                 which the excess contributions relate.

                          (2)     (A)      The amount of such excess for a
                          Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year shall
                          be determined by reducing the Actual Deferral Ratio
                          of the Highly Compensated Employee with the highest
                          Actual Deferral Ratio to the extent required to

                                        (i)    enable the arrangement to 
                                  satisfy the limitations set forth in section
                                  6.3, or

                                        (ii)    cause such Highly Compensated
                                  Employee's Actual Deferral Ratio to equal the
                                  Actual Deferral Ratio of the Highly
                                  Compensated Employee with the next highest
                                  Actual Deferral Ratio.

                          This process shall be repeated until the arrangement
                          satisfies the limitations set forth in section 6.3.

                                  (B)      For each Highly Compensated 
                          Employee, the amount of such excess shall be deemed 
                          to equal

                                        (i)     the total savings contributions
                                  on behalf of the Participant (determined
                                  prior to the application of this section
                                  6.1(f)), minus

                                        (ii)    the amount determined by
                                  multiplying the Participant's Actual Deferral
                                  Ratio (determined after application of this
                                  section 6.1(f)) by his Compensation used in
                                  determining such ratio.

                          (3)     Earnings attributable to excess contributions
                 of a Highly Compensated Employee shall be determined by the
                 Plan Administrator, as of the last day of the Plan Year to
                 which such excess contributions relate (and taking into
                 account the subsequent period preceding the date of the
                 refund), in a manner consistent with the provisions of section
                 7.4 and Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(k)-1(f)(4)(ii).

                          (4)     Excess savings contributions and earnings
                 determined under sections 6.1(f)(2) and (3) shall be reduced
                 by any excess savings contributions and earnings for the
                 calendar year ending with or within the Plan Year that have
                 been previously refunded to the Participant in accordance with
                 the provisions of section 6.1(b).

                          (5)     In the event that a Highly Compensated
                 Employee's Actual Deferral Ratio is determined on the basis of
                 both his contributions and the contributions of his Family
                 Members, any excess savings contributions and earnings
                 attributable to such Highly Compensated Employee under this
                 section 6.1(f) shall be distributed to the Highly Compensated
                 Employee and his Family Members in proportion to the relative
                 savings contributions of the Highly Compensated Employee and
                 his Family Members for the Plan Year.

         6.2     MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS.

                 (a)      Each Employer, at the discretion of its Board of
         Directors, may contribute to the Trust a matching contribution on
         behalf of each eligible Participant (as determined pursuant to
         sections 5.2 and 6.2(b)) for whom a savings contribution is made
         during the Plan Year.  Such matching contribution shall be equal to a
         specified percentage of the amount of the savings contribution (or
         specified percentages of separate portions of the amount of the
         savings contribution) made to the Plan by the Participant, and may be
         limited to a specified percentage (or percentages) of the
         Participant's Compensation or a specified maximum dollar amount (or
         amounts).  The percentage (or percentages) of the matching
         contribution, and any maximum percentage (or percentages) or dollar
         amount (or amounts), shall be determined by the Board of such
         Employer.  No matching contribution shall be required for the portion
         of a Participant's savings contribution subject to the refund
         requirements of section 6.1(b) or 6.1(f).

                 (b)      A Participant shall be eligible to share in the
         matching contribution described in section 6.2(a) for a Plan Year if
         (1) he has been credited with a Year of Service as of the date
         preceding his Anniversary Date occurring during the Plan Year and if
         he is employed by his Employer on the last day of such Plan Year, or
         (2) if his employment is terminated during the Plan Year (regardless
         of whether such termination is the result of retirement, disability
         [as defined in section 8.2(b)], death, or severance of employment) and
         he has a Vested Interest in the balance of his Matching Contributions
         Account as of his date of termination.

                 (c)      Except as noted in section 6.2(d), any matching
         contribution made by an Employer on account of a savings contribution
         that has been refunded pursuant to section 6.1(b) or section 6.1(f),
         above, shall be forfeited, and used to reduce matching contributions
         for the Plan Year in which the forfeiture occurs.  In the event that
         forfeitures arising pursuant to this section 6.2(c) exceed the amount
         that may be used to reduce matching contributions for the Plan Year,
         any additional forfeitures shall be allocated as additional matching
         contributions to the Matching Contributions Accounts of Participants
         other than those whose matching contributions have been reduced
         hereunder.

                 (d)      In the event that the matching contributions for
        Compensated Employees exceed the limitations of section 6.3:

                          (1)     Any nonvested excess matching contributions
                 (including earnings thereon for the Plan Year to which the
                 excess matching contributions relate), if any, shall






                                      24.
<PAGE>   27
                 be forfeited and used to reduce matching contributions under 
                 this section 6.2.                                            

                          (2)     Any vested excess matching contributions
                 (including earnings thereon for the Plan Year to which the
                 excess contributions relate), if any, shall be distributed to
                 the Highly Compensated Employees on or before the 15th day of
                 the third month after the close of the Plan Year to which the
                 matching contributions relate.  Notwithstanding the preceding
                 sentence, the Plan Administrator may delay the distribution of
                 any excess matching contributions (plus the earnings thereon
                 for the Plan Year to which the excess matching contributions
                 relate) attributable to an Employer beyond the 15th day of the
                 third month of such Plan Year, if the Employer consents to
                 such delay and the Administrator refunds all such excess
                 amounts not later than 12 months after the close of the Plan
                 Year to which the excess matching contributions relate.

                          (3)     The amount of such excess matching
                 contributions for a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan
                 Year shall be determined by the following leveling method,
                 under which the Actual Contribution Ratio of the Highly
                 Compensated Employee with the highest Actual Contribution
                 Ratio is reduced to the extent required to

                                  (A)      enable the Plan to satisfy the 
                          limitations set forth in section 6.3, or

                                  (B)      cause such Highly Compensated
                          Employee's Actual Contribution Ratio to equal the
                          Actual Contribution Ratio of the Highly Compensated
                          Employee with the next highest Actual Contribution
                          Ratio.

                 This process shall be repeated until the Plan satisfies the
                 limitations set forth in section 6.3.  For each Highly
                 Compensated Employee, the amount of such excess is equal to
                 the total matching contributions on behalf of the Employee
                 (determined prior to the application of this section
                 6.2(d)(3)) minus the amount determined by multiplying the
                 Employee's Actual Contribution Ratio (determined after
                 application of this section 6.2(d)(3)) by his Compensation
                 used in determining such ratio.

                          (4)     In determining the amount of such excess,
                 Actual Contribution Ratios shall be rounded to the nearest
                 one-hundredth of one percent of the Employee's Compensation.





                                      25.
<PAGE>   28
                          (5)     In no case shall the amount of such excess
                 with respect to any Highly Compensated Employee exceed the
                 amount of matching contributions on behalf of such Highly
                 Compensated Employee for such Plan Year.

                          (6)     Earnings attributable to excess contributions
                 shall be determined by the Plan Administrator, as of the last
                 day of the Plan Year to which such excess contributions relate
                 (and taking into account the subsequent period preceding the
                 date of the distribution and/or forfeiture), in a manner
                 consistent with the provisions of section 7.4 and Treasury
                 Regulation Section 1.401(m)-1(e)(3)(ii).

                          (7)     In the event that a Highly Compensated
                 Employee's Actual Contribution Ratio is determined on the
                 basis of both his matching contributions and the matching
                 contributions attributable to his Family Members, any excess
                 contributions and earnings attributable to such Highly
                 Compensated Employee that are forfeitable and distributable as
                 provided in sections 6.2(d)(1) and (2) shall be allocated to
                 the Highly Compensated Employee and his Family Members in
                 proportion to the relative contributions of the Highly
                 Compensated Employee and his Family Members that are taken
                 into account in determining the Highly Compensated Employee's
                 Actual Contribution Ratio for the Plan Year.

         6.3     LIMITATIONS ON SAVINGS AND MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS. The amounts
contributed as savings and matching contributions shall be limited as follows:

                 (a)      Actual Deferral Percentage:

                          (1)     The Actual Deferral Percentage for the group
                 of Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year shall not
                 exceed the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of all
                 other eligible Employees multiplied by 1.25, or

                          (2)     The excess of the Actual Deferral Percentage
                 for the group of Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year
                 over the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of all other
                 eligible Employees shall not exceed two (2) percentage points
                 (or such lesser amount as may be required by section 6.3(c));
                 and the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of Highly
                 Compensated Employees shall not exceed the Actual Deferral
                 Percentage for the group of all other eligible Employees,
                 multiplied by 2.0 (or such lesser amount as may be required by
                 section 6.3(c)); and





                                      26.
<PAGE>   29
                 (b)      Actual Contribution Percentage:

                          (1)     The Actual Contribution Percentage for the
                 group of Highly Compensated Employees for a Plan Year shall
                 not exceed the Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of
                 all other eligible Employees, multiplied by 1.25, or

                          (2)     The excess of the Actual Contribution
                 Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees for a
                 Plan Year over the Actual Contribution Percentage for the
                 group of all other eligible Employees shall not exceed two (2)
                 percentage points (or such lesser amount as may be required by
                 section 6.3(c)); and the Actual Contribution Percentage for
                 the group of Highly Compensated Employees shall not exceed the
                 Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of all other
                 eligible Employees, multiplied by 2.0 (or such lesser amount
                 as may be required by section 6.3(c)).

                 (c)      Multiple Use Restriction:

                          (1)     The provisions of this section 6.3(c) shall 
                 apply if:

                                  (A)      one or more Highly Compensated
                          Employees are subject to both the Actual Deferral
                          Percentage test described in section 6.3(a) and the
                          Actual Contribution Percentage test described in
                          section 6.3(b);

                                  (B)      the sum of the Actual Deferral
                          Percentage and the Actual Contribution Percentage of
                          those Highly Compensated Employees subject to either
                          or both tests exceeds the Aggregate Limit defined in
                          section 6.3(c)(3) below;

                                  (C)      the Actual Deferral Percentage for
                          the group of Highly Compensated Employees eligible to
                          make savings contributions for a Plan Year exceeds
                          the limitation set forth in section 6.3(a)(1); and

                          for the group of Highly Compensated Employees
                          eligible to receive matching contributions for a Plan
                          Year exceeds the limitation set forth in section
                          6.3(b)(1).

                          (2)     The Actual Deferral Percentage and the Actual
                 Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employees
                 described in section 6.3(c)(1) above shall be determined after
                 any corrections required by sections 6.1

                 and 6.2 to meet the requirements of section 6.3(a) and section
                 6.3(b).

                          (3)     "Aggregate Limit" shall mean the greater of:

                                  (A)      the sum of:

                                        (i)     125 percent of the greater of
                                  the Actual Deferral Percentage of the
                                  Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                                  Year or the Actual Contribution Percentage of
                                  Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                                  Year, and

                                        (ii)    the lesser of 200% of, or two
                                  percentage points plus, the lesser of such
                                  Actual Deferral Percentage and such Actual
                                  Contribution Percentage; or

                                  (B)      the sum of:

                                        (i)     125 percent of the lesser of
                                  the Actual Deferral Percentage of the
                                  Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                                  Year or the Actual Contribution Percentage of
                                  Non-Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                                  Year, and

                                        (ii)    the lesser of 200% of, or two
                                  percentage points plus, the greater of such
                                  Actual Deferral Percentage and such Actual
                                  Contribution Percentage.

                          (4)     If each of the provisions of section
                 6.3(c)(1) are met, then the Actual Contribution Percentage of
                 those Highly Compensated Employees eligible to receive
                 matching contributions for a Plan Year will be reduced
                 (beginning with such Highly Compensated Employee whose Actual
                 Contribution Ratio is the highest) so that the Aggregate Limit
                 is not exceeded.  The amount by which each Highly Compensated
                 Employee's Actual Contribution Ratio is reduced shall be
                 treated as excess amounts subject to section 6.2(c).

                 (d)      For purposes of this section 6.3, if two or more
         plans of an Employer to which elective salary reduction contributions,
         voluntary contributions or matching contributions are made are elected
         by the Employer to be treated as one Plan for purposes of Section
         410(b)(6) of the Code, such plans shall be treated as a single plan
         for purposes of determining the Actual Deferral Percentage and the
         Actual Contribution Percentage.  For purposes of determining the
         Actual Deferral Percentages and the Actual Contribution Percentages
         for the group of Highly Compensated Employees and the group of all
         other eligible Employees, all Employees of the respective group who
         are





                                      28.
<PAGE>   31
         directly or indirectly eligible to receive allocations of savings
         contributions and/or matching contributions under the Plan for any
         portion of the Plan Year, and all Employees of the respective group
         who elect not to enter into salary reduction agreements pursuant to
         section 6.1 or whose eligibility to enter into salary reduction
         agreements has been suspended or otherwise limited because of an
         election not to participate, a withdrawal, a loan, or a restriction on
         Annual Additions as set forth in section 7.8, shall be included.  For
         purposes of determining the Actual Deferral Ratio and the Actual
         Contribution Ratio for a Highly Compensated Employee, all cash or
         deferred arrangements in which the Employee is eligible to receive
         allocations of elective contributions and/or matching contributions
         shall be taken into account, unless otherwise required by Treasury
         Regulation Sections 1.401(k)-1(g)(1)(ii)(B) and 
         1.401(m)-1(f)(1)(ii)(B).  For purposes of determining the Actual
         Deferral Ratio and the Actual Contribution Ratio of a Highly
         Compensated Employee who is (i) a 5% owner of an Employer, or (ii) one
         of the ten Highly Compensated Employees paid the greatest amount of
         Compensation during the Plan Year, to the extent required by Section
         414(q)(6) of the Code, the elective contributions, matching
         contributions, voluntary contributions and compensation of such Highly
         Compensated Employee's Family Members shall be considered the elective
         contributions, matching contributions, voluntary contributions and
         compensation, respectively, of such Highly Compensated Employee.

         6.4     MINIMUM TOP HEAVY CONTRIBUTION.  For each Plan Year in which
this Plan is a Top Heavy Plan, an eligible Participant (as determined pursuant
to section 5.2) who is a Non-Key Employee, who is employed by an Employer on
the last day of such Plan Year, and who is not a participant in the Publix
Super Markets, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan or the Publix Super Markets, Inc.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan shall be entitled to receive a minimum
contribution from his Employer for such Plan Year equal to three percent (3%)
of his Section 415 Compensation (or, if less, the highest aggregate percentage
of such Section 415 Compensation allocated to a Key Employee's Savings
Contributions Account and Matching Contributions Account hereunder, as well as
his Employer contribution accounts under the Publix Super Markets, Inc. Profit
Sharing Plan, the Publix Super Markets, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan, and
any other defined contribution plan maintained by such Employer or an
Affiliate), regardless of whether such Plan Year constitutes a Year of Service
for such Participant.

         6.5     FORFEITURES.  Except as otherwise specifically provided, any
amount forfeited pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall be used as soon
as possible to reduce the matching contributions of an Employer under section
6.2.  In the event that forfeitures subject to this section 6.5 exceed the
amount that may be used to reduce matching contributions for the Plan Year, any
additional





                                      29.
<PAGE>   32
forfeitures shall be used to increase matching contributions as provided in
section 7.5(b).

         6.6     PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS NOT PERMITTED.  The Plan
Administrator shall not accept any voluntary after-tax Participant
contributions or any rollover contributions (within the meaning of Section 402
of the Code).

         6.7     FORM AND TIMING OF CONTRIBUTIONS.  Payments on account of the
savings contributions due from an Employer for any Plan Year shall be made in
cash to the Primary Trustee.  Payments on account of the matching contributions
due from an Employer for any Plan Year (as well as any Employer contributions
required pursuant to section 6.4) shall be made in cash or in shares of common
stock of the Company to the Publix Stock Fund Trustee.  Such payments may be
made by a contributing Employer at any time, but payment of the matching
contributions for any Plan Year (as well as any Employer contributions required
pursuant to section 6.4) shall be completed on or before the time prescribed by
law, including extensions thereof, for filing such Employer's federal income
tax return for its taxable year with which or within which such Plan Year ends.
Payment of any savings contribution shall be made within ninety (90) days after
it is withheld from a Participant's pay, but not later than twelve (12) months
after the end of the Plan Year in which such withholding occurs.

         6.8     NO DUTY TO INQUIRE.  The Trustees shall have no right or duty
to inquire into the amount of any contribution made by an Employer or the
method used in determining the amount of any such contribution, or to collect
the same, but the Trustees shall be accountable only for funds actually
received by the Trustees.


                                  ARTICLE VII

             PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS AND ALLOCATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS

         7.1     COMMON FUND.  Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, or
the Agreements and Declarations of Trust, the assets of the Trusts (or, to the
extent provided in Article X, the assets of any Directed Investment Fund or any
portion of a Directed Investment Fund) shall constitute a common fund in which
each Participant (or each Participant whose Accounts have been invested in such
Fund or portion of such Fund) shall have an undivided interest.

         7.2     ESTABLISHMENT OF ACCOUNTS.  The Plan Administrator shall
establish and maintain with respect to each Participant two Accounts,
designated as a Savings Contributions Account and a Matching Contributions
Account.  The Plan Administrator may establish and maintain with respect to
each Participant's Matching Contributions Account, and any portion of his
Savings Contributions Account invested in the Publix Stock Fund, an Employer
Securities Account and an Other Investments Account, that may further reflect





                                      30.
<PAGE>   33
the Participant's interest in the Publix Stock Fund.  The Plan Administrator
may establish such additional Accounts as are necessary to reflect a
Participant's interest in the Trust Funds.

         7.3     INTEREST OF PARTICIPANT.  The interest of a Participant in the
Trust Funds shall be the balance remaining from time to time in his Accounts
after making the adjustments required in sections 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6.  The
balance in the Savings Contributions Account of a Participant shall equal the
aggregate interests of such Account held in the Directed Investment Funds.  The
balance in the Matching Contributions Account of a Participant shall equal the
interest of such Account held in the Publix Stock Fund.

         7.4     ALLOCATION OF EARNINGS.   As of each Valuation Date, each of a
Participant's Accounts shall be credited or charged, as the case may be, with a
share of the earnings of the Trust Funds for the Valuation Period ending with
such current Valuation Date as follows:

                 (a)      As of each Valuation Date, any portion of the
         Participant's Savings Contributions Account that is invested in a
         Pooled Investment Fund established under section 10.1 (other than the
         Publix Stock Fund) shall be credited or charged, as the case may be,
         with a share of the Earnings of such Pooled Investment Fund for the
         Valuation Period ending with such current Valuation Date.  Each
         Participant's share of the Earnings of a Pooled Investment Fund for
         any Valuation Period shall be determined by the Plan Administrator on
         a weighted average basis, so that each Participant with a balance in
         such Pooled Investment Fund shall receive a pro rata share of the
         Earnings of such Pooled Investment Fund, taking into account the
         period of time that each dollar invested in such Pooled Investment
         Fund has been so invested.

                 (b)      As of each Valuation Date, the portion of the
         Participant's Savings Contributions Account that is invested in each
         Segregated Investment Fund established under section 10.1 shall be
         credited or charged, as the case may be, with the Earnings
         attributable to the Participant's investment in such Segregated
         Investment Fund for the Valuation Period ending with such current
         Valuation Date.

                 (c)      As of each Valuation Date, the Participant's Matching
         Contributions Account, and any portion of the Participant's Savings
         Contributions Account that is invested in the Publix Stock Fund
         pursuant to section 10.1, shall be credited or charged, as the case
         may be, with the share of the earnings attributable to the
         Participant's investment in the Publix Stock Fund for the Valuation
         Period ending with such current Valuation Date as follows:

                          (1)     The portions of the Participant's Matching
                 Contributions Account and Savings Contributions Account
                 credited to Employer Securities Accounts shall be





                                      31.
<PAGE>   34
                 credited with the value of any stock dividends, as well as the
                 aggregate unrealized appreciation or depreciation, for the
                 Valuation Period ending with such current Valuation Date that
                 are received on, or attributable to, shares of common stock of
                 the Company allocated to the Participant's Employer Securities
                 Accounts.

                          (2)     The portions of the Participant's Matching
                 Contributions Account and Savings Contributions Account
                 credited to Other Investments Accounts shall be credited or
                 charged, as the case may be, with a share of the Earnings of
                 such Other Investments Accounts for the Valuation Period
                 ending with such current Valuation Date.  Each Participant's
                 share of the Earnings of an Other Investments Account for any
                 Valuation Period shall be determined by the Plan Administrator
                 on a weighted average basis, so that each Participant with a
                 balance in such Other Investments Account shall receive a pro
                 rata share of the Earnings of such Other Investments Account,
                 taking into account the period of time that each dollar
                 invested in such Other Investments Account has been so
                 invested.

                          (3)     The Participant's Employer Securities Account
                 and Other Investments Account attributable to his Matching
                 Contributions Account (and, to the extent the Participant
                 elects to invest his savings contributions in the Publix Stock
                 Fund, his Savings Contributions Account) shall be further
                 credited and charged with the proceeds of any short-term
                 interim investments that may be made by the Primary Trustee
                 during periods prior to purchase dates for the acquisition of
                 common stock of the Company by the Publix Stock Fund Trustee.

                          (4)     The Participant's Employer Securities Account
                 and Other Investments Account attributable to his Matching
                 Contributions Account (and, to the extent the Participant
                 elects to invest his savings contributions in the Publix Stock
                 Fund, his Savings Contributions Account) shall be further
                 adjusted to reflect direct or indirect purchases of the common
                 stock of the Company with assets other than the common stock
                 of the Company, and purchases of assets other than the common
                 stock of the Company in connection with the sale of the common
                 stock of the Company.

         7.5     ALLOCATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS.      Subject to the provisions of
section 7.8, each Participant's Accounts shall be credited with contributions
made during the Plan Year as follows:

                 (a)      As of each Valuation Date, the Savings Contributions
         Account of a Participant shall be credited with any savings
         contributions made by his Employer on his behalf with respect





                                      32.
<PAGE>   35
         to one or more dates occurring during the Valuation Period ending with
         the Valuation Date.

                 (b)      As of each Valuation Date that is the last day of a
         Plan Year, the Matching Contributions Account of a Participant shall
         be credited with any matching contributions made by his Employer on
         his behalf pursuant to section 6.2 with respect to such Plan Year.  In
         addition, the Matching Contributions Account of a Participant shall be
         credited with any additional matching contributions made, pursuant to
         section 6.5, with forfeitures in excess of amounts necessary to fund
         any matching contributions made pursuant to section 6.2.  Any
         additional matching contributions shall be credited to each eligible
         Participant for whom a savings contribution is made during the Plan
         Year, and shall equal a uniform percentage of the amount of the
         savings contribution made to the Plan by the Participant for the Plan
         Year; provided, however, that no additional matching contribution
         shall be made for a Participant with respect to any Plan Year for the
         portion of his savings contribution that is in excess of six percent
         (6%) of the Participant's Compensation for such Plan Year; and
         provided, further, that no additional matching contribution shall be
         required for the portion of a Participant's savings contribution
         subject to the refund requirements of sections 6.1(b) and 6.1(f).  A
         Participant will not be entitled to share in the matching
         contributions or additional matching contributions unless he meets the
         requirements of sections 5.2 and 6.2(b).

                 (c)      For each Plan Year in which this Plan is a Top Heavy
         Plan, a Participant who is not a participant in the Publix Super
         Markets, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan or the Publix Super Markets, Inc.
         Employee Stock Ownership Plan and who meets the additional eligibility
         requirements set forth in section 6.4 for such Plan Year shall be
         entitled to share in the contribution provided pursuant to section
         6.4.  Any such contribution for a Plan Year shall be credited, as of
         the Valuation Date that is the last day of a Plan Year, to the
         Matching Contributions Account of the Participant.

         7.6     DISTRIBUTIONS.  As of each Valuation Date (unless otherwise
provided hereinabove), each Participant's Accounts shall be charged with the
amount of any distribution made to, or withdrawal made by, the Participant or
his beneficiary from his Accounts during the Valuation Period ending with such
Valuation Date.

         7.7     ACCRUAL METHOD.  For purposes of all computations required by
this Article VII, the accrual method of accounting shall be used, and the Trust
Funds and the assets therein shall be valued at their fair market value as of
each Valuation Date.  The Plan Administrator may adopt such additional
accounting procedures as are necessary to accurately reflect each Participant's
interest in the Trust Funds.  All such procedures shall be applied in a
consistent nondiscriminatory manner.

         7.8     LIMITATION ON ALLOCATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS.

                 (a)      Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to
         the contrary, the aggregate Annual Additions to a Participant's
         Accounts under this Plan and under any other defined contribution
         plans maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate for any Limitation
         Year shall not exceed the lesser of $30,000 (or, if greater, one
         quarter of the dollar limitation in effect under Section 415(b)(1)(A)
         of the Code) or 25% of the Participant's Section 415 Compensation for
         such Plan Year.

                 (b)      In the event that the Annual Additions, under the
         normal administration of the Plan, would otherwise exceed the limits
         set forth above for any Participant, or in the event that any
         Participant participates in both a defined benefit plan and a defined
         contribution plan maintained by any Employer or any Affiliate and the
         aggregate annual additions to and projected benefits under all of such
         plans, under the normal administration of such plans, would otherwise
         exceed the limits provided by law, then the Plan Administrator shall
         take such actions, applied in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner,
         as will keep the annual additions and projected benefits for such
         Participant from exceeding the applicable limits provided by law.
         Excess Annual Additions shall be disposed of as provided in section
         7.8(c).  Adjustments shall be made to this Plan, if necessary to
         comply with such limits, before any adjustments shall be required to
         any other Plan.

                 (c)      If as a result of the allocation of forfeitures, a
         reasonable error in estimating a Participant's Section 415
         Compensation, a reasonable error in determining the amount of elective
         deferrals that may be made, or other circumstances permitted under
         Section 415 of the Code, the Annual Additions attributable to Employer
         contributions for a particular Participant (including savings and
         matching contributions) would cause the limitations set forth in this
         section 7.8 to be exceeded, the excess amount shall be deemed first to
         consist of the Participant's savings contributions in excess of any
         amount subject to a matching contribution for the Plan Year, which
         excess shall be returned to the Participant.  The remaining excess
         shall be deemed to consist of savings contributions and corresponding
         matching contributions, in which case the excess savings contributions
         shall be returned to such Participant and the corresponding matching
         contributions shall be held and allocated in the manner described
         below.  Any excess amount attributable to matching contributions shall
         be held unallocated in a suspense account for the Limitation Year,
         used to reduce matching contributions on behalf of such Participant
         for the next Limitation Year, and allocated to such Participant in
         lieu of such reduced contribution as of the end of the next Limitation
         Year under the terms of section 7.5.  Any such allocations shall be
         treated as Annual Additions to the Matching Contributions Account of
         the Participant in the





                                      34.
<PAGE>   37
         Limitation Year that they are allocated in lieu of such reduced
         contributions.  In the event that the Participant terminates his
         participation in this Plan before all of the amounts in a suspense
         account are allocated to his Matching Contributions Account, then such
         excess amounts shall be retained in such suspense account, to be
         reallocated to other Participants as of the end of the next Limitation
         Year and any succeeding Limitation Years until all amounts in the
         suspense account are exhausted.

                 (d)      In the event that any Participant participates in
         both a defined benefit plan and a defined contribution plan maintained
         by his Employer or an Affiliate thereof, then the sum of the Defined
         Benefit Plan Fraction and the Defined Contribution Plan Fraction for
         any Limitation Year shall not exceed 1.0.  For these purposes,

                          (1)     The Defined Benefit Plan Fraction is a
                 fraction, the numerator of which is the projected annual
                 benefit of the Participant under the defined benefit plan
                 determined as of the close of the Limitation Year and the
                 denominator of which is the lesser of (i) the product of 1.25
                 times the dollar limitation in effect under Section
                 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for such Limitation Year or (ii) the
                 product of 1.4 times the amount that may be taken into account
                 under Section 415(b)(1)(B) of the Code with respect to such
                 Participant for such Limitation Year.

                          (2)     The Defined Contribution Plan Fraction is a
                 fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Annual
                 Additions to the Participant's Accounts as of the close of the
                 Limitation Year (less any amount that may be subtracted from
                 the numerator in accordance with any applicable statutes,
                 notices or rulings) and the denominator of which is the sum of
                 the lesser of the following amounts determined for such year
                 and for each prior Year of Service with the Employer:  (i) the
                 product of 1.25 times the dollar limitation in effect under
                 Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for such Limitation Year
                 (determined without regard to Section 415(c)(6) of the Code)
                 or (ii) the product of 1.4 times the amount that may be taken
                 into account under Section 415(c)(1)(B) of the Code with
                 respect to such Participant for such Limitation Year.

                          (3)     The figure "1.0" shall be substituted for the
                 figure "1.25" set forth in sections 7.8(d)(1) and (2) for each
                 year in which this Plan is a Top Heavy Plan unless (i) the
                 defined benefit plan provides a minimum benefit equal to 3% of
                 each Participant's Compensation times the number of years (not
                 exceeding 10) the Plan is a Top Heavy Plan or the defined
                 contribution plan provides a





                                      35.
<PAGE>   38
                 minimum contribution equal to 4% (7 1/2% if the Participant
                 participates in both the defined benefit plan and the defined
                 contribution plan) of each Participant's Section 415
                 Compensation, and (ii) the present value of the cumulative
                 accrued benefits (not including rollover contributions made
                 after December 31, 1983) of the Key Employees for such year
                 does not exceed 90% of the present value of the accrued
                 benefits (not including rollover contributions made after
                 December 31, 1983) under all plans.  Such values shall be
                 determined in the same manner as described in section 1.51.


                                  ARTICLE VIII

                            BENEFITS UNDER THE PLAN

         8.1     RETIREMENT BENEFIT.

                 (a)      A Participant shall be entitled to retire from the
         employ of his Employer upon such Participant's Normal Retirement Date.
         Until a Participant actually retires from the employ of his Employer,
         no retirement benefits shall be payable to him, and he shall continue
         to be treated in all respects as a Participant; provided, however,
         that a Participant who attains age 70 1/2 shall begin receiving
         payment of his retirement benefit no later than the April 1 after the
         end of the calendar year in which he attains age 70 1/2.

                 (b)      Upon the retirement of a Participant as provided in
         section 8.1(a) and subject to adjustment as provided in section 9.3,
         such Participant shall be entitled to a retirement benefit in an
         amount equal to 100% of the balance in his Accounts as of the
         Valuation Date immediately preceding or concurring with the date of
         his retirement, increased by the amount of contributions, if any, made
         by the Employers to, and decreased by any withdrawals made by the
         Participant from, the Participant's Accounts subsequent to such
         Valuation Date.

         8.2     DISABILITY BENEFIT.

                 (a)      In the event a Participant's employment with his
         Employer is terminated by reason of his total and permanent disability
         and subject to adjustment as provided in section 9.3, such Participant
         shall be entitled to a disability benefit in an amount equal to 100%
         of the balance in his Accounts as of the Valuation Date immediately
         preceding or concurring with the date of the termination of his
         employment, increased by the amount of contributions, if any, made by
         the Employers to, and decreased by any withdrawals made by the
         Participant from, the Participant's Accounts subsequent to such
         Valuation Date.

<PAGE>   39
                 (b)      Total and permanent disability shall mean the total
         incapacity of a Participant to perform the usual duties of his
         employment with his Employer.  A Participant will be deemed to have
         incurred a total and permanent disability only if clear and convincing
         evidence is received by the Administrator within one hundred eighty
         (180) days after the date of the termination of such Participant's
         employment, and only if such evidence includes a certification from a
         physician who is acceptable to the Plan Administrator and who is
         licensed to practice medicine in the State of Florida, pursuant to
         Florida Statutes Chapter 458, (or, if a Participant is employed by his
         Employer in a State other than Florida, who is licensed to practice
         medicine in such State).

         8.3     SEVERANCE OF EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT.

                 (a)      In the event a Participant's employment with his
         Employer is terminated for reasons other than retirement, total and
         permanent disability or death, and subject to adjustment as provided
         in section 9.3, such Participant shall be entitled to a severance of
         employment benefit in an amount equal to his Vested Interests in the
         balance in his Accounts as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding
         or concurring with the date of the termination of his employment,
         increased by his Vested Interests in the amount of contributions, if
         any, made by the Employers to, and decreased by any withdrawals made
         by the Participant from, the Participant's Accounts subsequent to such
         Valuation Date.

                 (b)      (1)     The Vested Interest in the Matching
                 Contributions Account of each Participant performing at least
                 one Hour of Service on or after October 1, 1989, shall be a
                 percentage of the balance of such Matching Contributions
                 Account as of the applicable Valuation Date, based upon such
                 Participant's Years of Service as of the date of the
                 termination of his employment, as follows:

                                  TOTAL NUMBER OF                    VESTED
                                  YEARS OF SERVICE                  INTEREST
                                  ----------------                  --------

                          Less than 5 Years of Service                  0%
                          5 years or more                             100%

                          (2)     Notwithstanding the provisions of section
                 8.3(b)(1), for any Plan Year in which this Plan is a Top Heavy
                 Plan, a Participant's Vested Interest in his Matching
                 Contributions Account shall be a percentage of the balance of
                 such account as of the applicable Valuation Date, based upon
                 such Participant's Years of Service as of the date of the
                 termination of his employment, as follows:





                                      37.
<PAGE>   40
                                  TOTAL NUMBER OF                    VESTED
                                  YEARS OF SERVICE                  INTEREST
                                  ----------------                  --------

                          Less than 2 Years of Service                  0%
                          2 years, but less than 3 years               20%
                          3 years, but less than 4 years               40%
                          4 years, but less than 5 years               60%
                          5 years, but less than 6 years               80%
                          6 years or more                             100%

                          (3)     If at any time this Plan ceases to be a Top
                 Heavy Plan after being a Top Heavy Plan for one or more Plan
                 Years, the change from being a Top Heavy Plan shall be treated
                 as if it were an amendment to the Plan's vesting schedule for
                 purposes of sections 14.1(c) and (e).

                          (4)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant
                 shall be 100% vested in his Matching Contributions Account
                 upon attaining his Normal Retirement Date.  A Participant's
                 vested interest in his Savings Contributions Account shall be
                 100% regardless of the number of his Years of Service.

                 (c)      If a Participant incurs five consecutive One Year
         Breaks in Service while continuing his employment with an Employer or
         an Affiliate, then upon the occurrence of such five consecutive One
         Year Breaks in Service, the nonvested interest of the Participant in
         his Matching Contributions Account as of the Valuation Date
         immediately following the fifth such consecutive One Year Break in
         Service shall be deemed to be forfeited and such forfeited amount
         shall be reallocated, pursuant to the provisions of section 7.5, at
         the end of the Plan Year during which the fifth such consecutive One
         Year Break in Service occurs.  If the Participant continues his
         employment with an Employer or an Affiliate, the unforfeited balance,
         if any, in his Matching Contributions Account that has not been
         distributed to such Participant shall be set aside in a separate
         account, and such Participant's Years of Service after any five
         consecutive One Year Breaks in Service shall not be taken into account
         for the purpose of determining the vested interest of such Participant
         in the balance of his Matching Contributions Account that accrued
         before such five consecutive One Year Breaks in Service.

                 (d)      (1)     Notwithstanding any other provision of this
                 section 8.3, if at any time a Participant is less than 100%
                 vested in his Matching Contributions Account and, as a result
                 of his severance of employment, he receives his entire vested
                 severance of employment benefit pursuant to the provisions of
                 Article IX, and the distribution of such benefit is made
                 before the Participant incurs a One Year Break in Service,
                 then upon the occurrence of such distribution, the nonvested
                 interest of the Participant

                 in his Matching Contributions Account shall be deemed to be
                 forfeited and such forfeited amount shall be reallocated,
                 pursuant to the provisions of section 7.5, at the end of the
                 Plan Year immediately following or concurring with the date
                 such distribution occurs.

                          (2)     If the termination of employment results in a
                 One Year Break in Service, then upon the occurrence of such
                 One Year Break in Service, the nonvested interest of the
                 Participant in his Matching Contributions Account as of the
                 Valuation Date immediately preceding or concurring with the
                 date of his termination of employment shall be deemed to be
                 forfeited and such forfeited amount shall be reallocated,
                 pursuant to the provisions of section 7.5, at the end of the
                 Plan Year during which the One Year Break in Service occurs.

                          (3)     If a Participant is not vested as to any
                 portion of his Accounts, he will be deemed to have received a
                 distribution immediately following his severance of
                 employment.  Upon the occurrence of such deemed distribution,
                 the nonvested interest of the Participant in his Accounts
                 shall be deemed to be forfeited and such forfeited amount
                 shall be reallocated, pursuant to the provisions of section
                 7.5, at the end of the Plan Year immediately following or
                 concurring with the date such deemed distribution occurs.

                          (4)     If a Participant whose interest is forfeited
                 under this section 8.3(d) is reemployed by an Employer or an
                 Affiliate prior to the occurrence of five consecutive One Year
                 Breaks in Service commencing after his distribution, then such
                 Participant shall have the right to repay to the Trust, before
                 the date that is the earlier of (1) five years after the
                 Participant's resumption of employment, or (2) the close of a
                 period of five consecutive One Year Breaks in Service, the
                 full amount of the severance of employment benefit previously
                 distributed to him, if any.  If the Participant elects to
                 repay such amount to the Trust within the time periods
                 prescribed herein, or if a Participant whose interest was
                 forfeited under section 8.3(d)(2) or (3) is reemployed by an
                 Employer or an Affiliate prior to the occurrence of five
                 consecutive One Year Breaks in Service, the nonvested interest
                 of the Participant previously forfeited pursuant to the
                 provisions of this section 8.3(d) shall be restored to the
                 Matching Contributions Account of the Participant, such
                 restoration to be made from forfeitures of nonvested interests
                 and, if necessary, by contributions of his Employer, so that
                 the aggregate of the amounts repaid by the Participant and
                 restored by the Employer shall not be less than the Account
                 balances of

                 the Participant at the time of forfeiture unadjusted by any
                 subsequent gains or losses.

                 (e)      Notwithstanding any other provision of this section
         8.3, if a Participant is reemployed by an Employer or an Affiliate
         before any distribution of benefits occurs, the Participant shall not
         be entitled to any severance of employment benefit as a result of his
         prior termination of employment.

         8.4     DEATH BENEFIT.

                 (a)      In the event of the death of a Participant and
         subject to adjustment as provided in section 9.3, his beneficiary
         shall be entitled to a death benefit in an amount equal to 100% of the
         balance in his Accounts as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding
         or concurring with the date of his death, increased by the amount of
         contributions, if any, made by the Employers to, and decreased by any
         withdrawals made by the Participant from, the Participant's Accounts
         subsequent to such Valuation Date.

                 (b)      Subject to the provisions of section 8.4(c), at any
         time and from time to time, each Participant shall have the
         unrestricted right to designate a beneficiary to receive his death
         benefit and to revoke any such designation.  Each designation or
         revocation shall be evidenced by written instrument signed by the
         Participant and filed with the Plan Administrator.  In the event that
         a Participant has not designated a beneficiary or beneficiaries, or if
         for any reason such designation shall be legally ineffective, or if
         such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall predecease the Participant,
         then the Participant's surviving Eligible Spouse, and if none, the
         estate of such Participant shall be deemed to be the beneficiary
         designated to receive such death benefit.

                 (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is
         married for not less than one year as of the date of his death, the
         Participant's surviving Eligible Spouse shall be deemed to be his
         designated beneficiary and shall receive the full amount of the death
         benefit attributable to the Participant unless the spouse consents or
         has consented to the Participant's designation of another beneficiary.
         Any such consent to the designation of another beneficiary must
         acknowledge the effect of the consent, must be witnessed by a Plan
         representative or by a notary public and shall be effective only with
         respect to that spouse.  A spouse's consent shall be a restricted
         consent (which may not be changed as to the beneficiary unless the
         spouse consents to such change in the manner described herein).
         Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this section 8.4(c), a
         Participant shall not be required to obtain spousal consent to his
         designation of another beneficiary if the Participant is legally
         separated or the Participant has been





                                      40.

         abandoned, and the Participant provides the Plan Administrator with a
         court order to such effect.


                                   ARTICLE IX

                   FORM AND PAYMENT OF BENEFITS, WITHDRAWALS

         9.1     TIME FOR DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS.

                 (a)      Except as otherwise provided under this Article IX,
         the amount of the benefit to which a Participant is entitled under
         sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, or 8.4 shall be paid to him or, in the case of
         a death benefit, shall be paid to said Participant's beneficiary or
         beneficiaries, in a lump sum payment as soon as practicable following
         the Participant's retirement, disability, severance of employment or
         death, as the case may be.

                 (b)      Any distribution paid to a Participant (or, in the
         case of a death benefit, to his beneficiary or beneficiaries) pursuant
         to section 9.1(a) shall commence not later than the earlier of:

                          (1)     the 60th day after the last day of the Plan
                 Year in which the Participant's employment is terminated or,
                 if later, in which occurs the Participant's Normal Retirement
                 Date; or

                          (2)     April 1 of the year immediately following the
                 calendar year in which he reaches age 70 1/2.

                 (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, no distribution shall
         be made of the benefit to which a Participant is entitled under
         sections 8.1, 8.2, or 8.3 prior to the Participant's 62nd birthday
         unless the value of his benefit does not exceed $3,500, or unless the
         Participant consents to the distribution.  The Plan Administrator
         shall provide each Participant entitled to a distribution of more than
         $3,500 with a written notice of his rights, which shall include an
         explanation of the alternative dates for distribution of benefits and
         the optional forms of benefit available to the Participant.  The
         Participant may elect to exercise such rights, no less than 30 days
         and no more than 90 days before the first date upon which distribution
         of the Participant's vested account balances may be made; provided,
         however, that such distribution may commence less than 30 days after
         the provision of the notice if the Plan Administrator clearly informs
         the Participant that the Participant has a right to a period of at
         least 30 days after receiving the notice to consider the decision of
         whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a
         particular distribution option), and if the Participant, after
         receiving the notice, affirmatively elects a distribution.  In the
         event that a Participant does





                                      41.
<PAGE>   44
         not consent to a distribution of a benefit in excess of $3,500 to
         which he is entitled under sections 8.1, 8.2, or 8.3, the amount of
         his benefit shall be paid to the Participant not later than sixty (60)
         days after the last day of the Plan Year in which the Participant
         reaches his 62nd birthday.

                 (d)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, benefit payments shall
         satisfy the incidental death benefit requirements and all other
         applicable provisions of Section 401(a)(9) of the Code, the
         regulations issued thereunder (including Proposed Regulation Section
         1.401(a)(9)-2), and such other rules thereunder as may be prescribed
         by the Commissioner.

         9.2     FORM OF PAYMENT.  The amount of any benefit to which a
Participant is entitled under Article VIII hereof shall be paid to him in cash;
provided, however, that at the request of the Participant or, in case such
Participant has died, at the request of his beneficiary or beneficiaries, the
portion of any distributable benefit attributable to the Participant's Savings
Contributions Account and Matching Contributions Account and credited to
Employer Securities Accounts shall be distributable, to the extent possible,
in shares of common stock of the Company, except that no fractional shares
shall be issued and the value of any fractional shares to which a Participant
would otherwise be entitled shall be paid in cash.

         9.3     PERIODIC ADJUSTMENTS.  To the extent the balances of a
Participant's Accounts have not been distributed and remain in the Plan, and
notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the value of
such remaining balances shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
pursuant to the provisions of Article VII.

         9.4     WITHDRAWALS AFTER AGE 59 1/2.

                 (a)      Upon reaching age 59 1/2, a Participant who is
         actively employed by an Employer may apply to the Administrator for
         the withdrawal of all or a portion of his Savings Contributions
         Account and his vested Matching Contributions Account.  The
         Administrator shall not permit more than one withdrawal in any Plan
         Year.  The minimum amount that may be withdrawn by a Participant shall
         be $1,000.  All amounts withdrawn shall be paid to the Participant in
         cash.

                 (b)      The Administrator shall direct the Trustee to
         distribute to a Participant who has applied for such a withdrawal the
         amount requested, which amount shall be withdrawn first from the
         Participant's Savings Contributions Account and, after withdrawal of
         the Participant's entire Savings Contributions Account, then from the
         Participant's Matching Contributions Account.





                                      42.
<PAGE>   45
                 (c)      Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this
         section 9.4, any Participant who is an officer, director or 10%
         shareholder of the Company, and any other Participant who is required
         to file reports under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of
         1934, shall be prohibited from withdrawing any portion of his Matching
         Contributions Account, as well as any portion of his Savings
         Contributions Account that is invested in the Publix Stock Fund (as
         described in section 10.1(d)).

                 (d)      The Administrator shall establish additional uniform
         and nondiscriminatory rules and procedures regarding the distribution
         of benefits pursuant to this section.

         9.5     DIRECT ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTIONS.  Notwithstanding any provision
of the Plan to the contrary, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the
manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have all or any portion of an
Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan
specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover.  In the event that a
Distributee elects to have only a portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution
paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan, the portion must not be less than
$500 (adjusted under such regulations as may be issued from time to time by the
Secretary of the Treasury).

         9.6     DISTRIBUTION FOR MINOR BENEFICIARY.  In the event a
distribution is to be made to a beneficiary who is a minor under the laws of
the state in which the beneficiary resides, the Administrator may, in the
Administrator's sole discretion, direct that such distribution be paid to the
legal guardian or custodian of such beneficiary as permitted by the laws of the
state in which said beneficiary resides.  If the amount distributable to a
minor beneficiary who is a Florida resident does not exceed $5,000, the
Administrator may direct that payment be made to a natural guardian of the
beneficiary (as defined in Florida Statute Section 744.301, or any successor
statute).  If the amount distributable to such a beneficiary residing in
Florida exceeds $5,000, or if payment cannot be made to a natural guardian, the
Administrator may, in its sole discretion,  direct that payment be made to (i)
a court appointed guardian of the property of the beneficiary; or (ii) a
custodian for the minor under the Florida Uniform Transfers to Minors Act.  A
payment to the legal guardian or custodian of a minor beneficiary shall fully
discharge the Trustee, Employer, and Plan from further liability on account
thereof.

         9.7     LOCATION OF PARTICIPANT OR BENEFICIARY UNKNOWN.    In the
event that all, or any portion, of the distribution payable to a Participant or
his beneficiary hereunder shall, at the expiration of two (2) years after it
shall become payable, remain unpaid solely by reason of the inability of the
Administrator to ascertain the whereabouts of such Participant or his
beneficiary despite the reasonable effort of the Administrator to locate such
Participant or his beneficiary, the amount so distributable shall be treated as
a forfeiture pursuant to the Plan.  In the event a Participant or





                                      43.
<PAGE>   46
beneficiary is located subsequent to his benefit being reallocated, such
benefit shall be restored.

                             DESIGNATED INVESTMENTS

         10.1    PARTICIPANT DIRECTED INVESTMENTS.  On the commencement of his
participation in the Plan, each Participant shall direct the Trustees to invest
his Savings Contributions Account in one or more of the following:

                 (a)      A "Fixed Income Fund," which shall consist of a
         portfolio invested in commercial paper, U.S. Government or federal
         agency obligations, short-term corporate obligations, bank
         certificates of deposit, savings accounts and/or comparable
         investments, as may be deemed appropriate by the Plan Administrator,
         designed to provide maximum protection of capital with a conservative
         rate of return;

                 (b)      A "Growth and Income Fund," which shall consist of a
         portfolio invested primarily in common and preferred stocks,
         governmental and corporate bonds, and other securities or investment
         opportunities, as may be deemed appropriate by the Plan Administrator,
         designed to provide for both capital appreciation and current income;

                 (c)      A "Growth Fund," which shall consist of a portfolio
         invested primarily in common stocks and such other securities or
         investment opportunities, as may be deemed appropriate by the Plan
         Administrator, providing for long-term capital appreciation;

                 (d)      A "Company Stock Fund," which shall consist of a
         portfolio invested primarily in common stock of the Company; and

                 (e)      Such additional Directed Investment Funds as may be
         made available by the Plan Administrator from time to time.

The Plan Administrator may provide each of the Directed Investment Funds
described above through mutual funds, investment contracts, or other
appropriate investment vehicles.

         10.2    ELECTION PROCEDURES.  Except as may be otherwise provided by
the Agreements and Declarations of Trust or by any contract entered into by a
Trustee or the Plan Administrator with an investment manager appointed to
manage all or any portion of the assets of the Plan, each Participant's
elections described in subsection (a) shall be made in writing upon his
commencement of participation in the Plan.





                                      44.
<PAGE>   47
                 (a)      A Participant shall designate the percentage of his
         savings contributions to be allocated to any Directed Investment Fund.
         The Administrator shall establish the minimum percentage that each
         Participant may select to be allocated to any Directed Investment Fund
         selected by the Participant.

                 (b)      A Participant may revise his election effective as of
         the first day of each Valuation Period.  The Participant's revised
         election shall be effective for contributions made to the Plan after
         the effective date of such revision, and may be effective for the
         investment of balances previously allocated and remaining credited to
         a Participant's Savings Contributions Account.

                 (c)      The Trustees shall make requested investments on
         behalf of each Participant within a reasonable period after the
         receipt of written directions from the Administrator or the
         Participant.

         10.3    FAILURE TO DESIGNATE.  If a Participant does not specifically
designate the initial investments for all of his Savings Contributions Account,
the Administrator shall not accept his initial salary reduction agreement.

         10.4    PROCEDURES AND RESTRICTIONS.  Except as otherwise provided
herein, the Plan Administrator shall establish uniform procedures regarding
Participant investment directions, which procedures shall be communicated to
all Participants.  The Plan Administrator, at its sole discretion, may
prohibit, or otherwise restrict, investment of Savings Contributions Account
balances in the Company Stock Fund by any officer, director or 10% shareholder
of the Company, or any other Participant who is required to file reports under
Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in order to prevent a
violation of federal law or an undue administrative burden upon the Plan
Administrator.

         10.5    OTHER ACCOUNTS.  The Participant shall have no right to direct
the investment of his Matching Contributions Account.

                             LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS

         11.1    AVAILABILITY OF LOANS.

                 (a)      The provisions of this Article XI shall be effective
         beginning June 1, 1995.

                 (b)      The Plan Administrator, in accordance with its
         uniform nondiscriminatory policy, may direct the Trustee, upon
         application of a Participant who is actively employed by an Employer,
         to make a loan to such Participant out of his Savings





                                      45.
<PAGE>   48
         Contributions Account.  Any such loan to a Participant shall be
         considered a designated investment under Article X and without
         limitation shall be subject to the provisions of Article X.

                 (c)      Until otherwise directed by the Administrator, the
         Director of Benefits Administration shall be authorized to coordinate
         the loan program set forth herein.  Applications shall be submitted to
         such person on forms obtained from such person.

                 (d)      The amount advanced, when added to the outstanding
         balance of all other loans to the Participant from any qualified
         retirement plan adopted by the Participant's Employer or an Affiliate,
         may not exceed the lesser of:

                          (1)     $50,000, reduced by the excess, if any, of:

                                  (A)      the Participant's highest aggregate
                          outstanding balance of all loans from the Plan (or
                          any other qualified retirement plan adopted by the
                          Participant's Employer or an Affiliate) during the
                          one (1) year period ending on the day before the date
                          on which the loan is made, over

                                  (B)      the aggregate outstanding balance of
                          all loans from any qualified retirement plan adopted
                          by the Participant's Employer or an Affiliate on the
                          date on which the loan is made; or

                          (2)     50% of the vested balance of the 
                  Participant's Savings Contribution and Matching Contributions 
                  Accounts; or

                          (3)     100% of the balance of the Participant's 
                  Savings Contributions Account.

                 (e)      The minimum amount that may be borrowed by the
         Participant shall be $1,000.

                 (f)      The Participant shall not be permitted to obtain more
         than one loan in any Plan Year.

                 (g)      The Participant shall not be permitted to maintain 
         more than one loan at any time.

                 (h)      Any legal and administrative costs incurred by the
         Plan Administrator or the Primary Trustee as a result of a loan, or
         application for a loan, shall be paid by the Participant who received
         or applied for such loan.

         11.2    TIME AND MANNER OF REPAYMENT.  Any loan made under this
Article shall be repayable to the Trust at such times and in such manner as may
be provided by the Administrator, subject to the following limitations:

                 (a)      Each loan shall be secured by 50% of the vested
         interest of the Participant in his Accounts.  The Administrator shall
         not accept any other form of security.  Each Participant shall agree
         to have each required loan payment deducted from his pay and remitted
         to the Trustee.

                 (b)      Each loan shall bear interest at a reasonable rate
         and shall provide for substantially level amortization of principal
         and interest no less frequently than quarterly.  The interest rate
         charged shall be comparable to the rate charged by commercial lending
         institutions in the region in which the Employer is located for
         comparable loans as determined by the Primary Trustee at the time the
         loan is approved.

                 (c)      Each loan may be pre-paid at any time after the
         completion of a one year period.

                 (d)      Each loan shall be repaid within a five-year period
         of time.

         11.3    DEFAULT.  In the event of default, the Trustees, at the
direction of the Administrator, may proceed to collect said loan with any legal
remedy available, including reducing the amount of any distribution permitted
under Article VIII by the amount of any such loan that may be due and owing as
of the date of distribution or any other action that may be permitted by law.
"Events of Default" shall include any failure to make a payment of principal or
interest attributable to the loan when due; failure to perform or to comply
with any obligations imposed by any agreement executed by the Borrower securing
his loan obligation; and any other conditions or requirements set forth within
a promissory note or security agreement that may be required in order to ensure
that the terms of the loan are consistent with commercially reasonable
practices.

Investment Funds (other than the Publix Stock Fund) attributable to
Participants' Savings Contributions Accounts.  The Publix Stock Fund Trustee
shall maintain the Publix Stock Fund, which shall include assets attributable
to Participants' Savings Contributions Accounts and Matching Contributions
Accounts.


                                  ARTICLE XIII

           EXPENSES OF ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN AND THE TRUST FUND

         The Company shall bear all expenses of implementing this Plan and the
Trust.  For its services, any corporate trustee shall be entitled to receive
reasonable compensation in accordance with its rate schedule in effect from
time to time for the handling of a retirement trust.  Any individual Trustee
shall be entitled to such compensation as shall be arranged between the Company
and the Trustee by separate instrument; provided, however, that no person who
is already receiving full-time pay from any Employer or any Affiliate shall
receive compensation from the Trust Funds (except for the reimbursement of
expenses properly and actually incurred).  The Company may pay all expenses of
the administration of the Trust Funds, including the Trustee's compensation,
the compensation of any investment manager, the expense incurred by the
Administrator in discharging its duties, all income or other taxes of any kind
whatsoever that may be levied or assessed under existing or future laws upon or
in respect of the Trust Funds, and any interest that may be payable on money
borrowed by the Trustee for the purpose of the Trust and any Employer may pay
such expenses as relate to Participants employed by such Employer.  Any such
payment by the Company or an Employer shall not be deemed a contribution to
this Plan.  Such expenses shall be paid out of the assets of the Trust Funds
unless paid or provided for by the Company or another Employer.  Any and all
expenses (including, without limitation, brokerage fees, closing costs,
liabilities arising from the ownership or management of specific properties,
and income and other taxes) incurred in connection with the investments of the
Directed Investment Funds or the Publix Stock Fund, which are paid from the
assets of the Trust Funds, shall be charged solely against, and paid solely
from, the Fund to which such investment is attributable.  Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, no excise tax or other liability
imposed upon the Trustee, the Plan Administrator or any other person for
failure to comply with the provisions of any federal law shall be subject to
payment or reimbursement from the assets of the Trust.

                           AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

         14.1    RESTRICTIONS ON AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN.  It is
the present intention of the Company to maintain the Plan set forth herein
indefinitely.  Nevertheless, the Company specifically reserves to itself the
right at any time and from time to time to amend or terminate this Plan in
whole or in part; provided, however, that no such amendment:

                 (a)      shall have the effect of vesting in any Employer,
         directly or indirectly, any interest, ownership or control in any of
         the present or subsequent funds held subject to the terms of the
         Trust;

                 (b)      shall cause or permit any property held subject to
         the terms of the Trust to be diverted to purposes other than the
         exclusive benefit of the Participants and their beneficiaries or for
         the administrative expenses of the Plan Administrator and the Trust;

                 (c)      shall reduce any Vested Interest of a Participant on
         the later of the date the amendment is adopted or the date the
         amendment is effective, except as permitted by law;

                 (d)      shall reduce the Accounts of any Participant;

                 (e)      shall amend any vesting schedule with respect to any
         Participant who has at least three Years of Service at the end of the
         election period described below, except as permitted by law, unless
         each such Participant shall have the right to elect to have the
         vesting schedule in effect prior to such amendment apply with respect
         to him, such election, if any, to be made during the period beginning
         not later than the date the amendment is adopted and ending no earlier
         than sixty (60) days after the latest of the date the amendment is
         adopted, the amendment becomes effective or the Participant is issued
         written notice of the amendment by his Employer or the Plan
         Administrator; or

                 (f)      shall increase the duties or liabilities of the 
         Trustee without its written consent.

         14.2    AMENDMENT OF PLAN.  Subject to the limitations stated in
section 14.1, the Company shall have the power to amend this Plan in any manner
that it deems desirable, and, not in limitation but in amplification of the
foregoing, it shall have the right to change or modify the method of allocation
of contributions hereunder, to change any provision relating to the
administration of this Plan and to change any provision relating to the
distribution or payment, or both, of any of the assets of the Trust.





                                      49.
<PAGE>   52
         14.3    TERMINATION OF PLAN.  Any Employer, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may permanently discontinue making contributions under this Plan or
may terminate this Plan and the Trust (with respect to all Employers if it is
the Company, or with respect to itself alone if it is an Employer other than
the Company), completely or partially, at any time without any liability
whatsoever for such permanent discontinuance or complete or partial
termination.  In any of such events, the affected Participants, notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Plan, shall have fully Vested Interests in the
amounts credited to their respective Accounts at the time of such complete or
partial termination of this Plan and the Trust or permanent discontinuance of
contributions.  All such Vested Interests shall be nonforfeitable.

         14.4    METHOD OF DISCONTINUANCE.  In the event an Employer decides to
permanently discontinue making contributions, such decision shall be evidenced
by an appropriate resolution of its Board and a certified copy of such
resolution shall be delivered to the Plan Administrator and the Trustees.  All
of the assets in the Trust Funds belonging to the affected Participants on the
date of discontinuance specified in such resolutions shall, aside from becoming
fully vested as provided in section 14.3, be held, administered and distributed
by the Trustees in the manner provided under this Plan.  In the event of a
permanent discontinuance of contributions without such formal documentation,
full vesting of the interests of the affected Participants in the amounts
credited to their respective Accounts will occur on the last day of the Plan
Year in which a substantial contribution is made to the Trust.

         14.5    METHOD OF TERMINATION.

                 (a)      In the event an Employer decides to terminate this
         Plan and the Trusts, such decision shall be evidenced by an
         appropriate resolution of its Board and a certified copy of such
         resolution shall be delivered to the Plan Administrator and the
         Trustees.  After payment of all expenses and proportional adjustments
         of individual accounts to reflect such expenses and other changes in
         the value of the Trust Funds as of the date of termination, each
         affected Participant (or the beneficiary of any such Participant)
         shall be entitled to receive, provided that the requirements set forth
         in section 14.5(b) are met, any amount then credited to his Accounts
         in a lump sum.

                 (b)      In the event this Plan and the Trusts are terminated,
         completely or partially, and with respect to any one Employer or with
         respect to all Employers, distributions may not be made pursuant to
         this section 14.5 unless:

                          (1)     the Plan has been completely terminated and
                 no successor plan (within the meaning of Section 401(k)(10) of
                 the Code) has been established;





                                      50.
<PAGE>   53
                          (2)     the Plan has been partially terminated as a
                 result of the sale or other disposition by an Employer to an
                 unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets used
                 in a trade or business, in which case distribution may be made
                 to employees who continue employment with the acquiring
                 corporation; or

                          (3)     the Plan has been partially terminated as a
                 result of the sale or other disposition by an Employer of its
                 interest in a subsidiary, in which case distribution may be
                 made to employees who continue employment with the subsidiary.

                 (c)      At the election of the Participant, the Plan
         Administrator may transfer the amount of any Participant's
         distribution under this section 14.5 to the trustee of another
         qualified plan or the trustee of an individual retirement account or
         individual retirement annuity instead of distributing such amount to
         the Participant.  Any such election by a Participant shall be in
         writing and filed with the Plan Administrator.

         14.6    INITIAL QUALIFICATION OF PLAN.  Notwithstanding the provisions
of section 14.1, if it is finally determined that the Plan does not qualify
initially under the Code, then, in that event, the Plan shall terminate as of
the date of such final determination and the Plan Administrator shall direct
the Trustees to pay the then aggregate of the balances in the Matching
Contributions Accounts to the appropriate Employer (provided such payment is
made within one year after the date of the final determination); and the
balance in a Participant's Savings Contributions Account shall be paid to such
Participant.  The Participants and their beneficiaries shall have no further
rights under the Plan, the Trusts or the Trust Funds, and the Trustees shall be
discharged of all obligations and duties under the Trusts.


                                   ARTICLE XV

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

         15.1    MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION.  This Plan and the Trust may not be
merged or consolidated with, and the assets or liabilities of this Plan and the
Trust may not be transferred to, any other plan or trust unless each
Participant would receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation
or transfer, if the plan and trust then terminated, that is equal to or greater
than the benefit the Participant would have received immediately before the
merger, consolidation or transfer if this Plan and the Trust had then
terminated.

         15.2    ALIENATION.

                 (a)      Except as provided in section 15.2(b), no Participant
         or beneficiary of a Participant shall have any right to assign,
         transfer, appropriate, encumber, commute, anticipate or otherwise
         alienate his interest in this Plan or the Trust or any payments to be
         made thereunder; no benefits, payments, rights or interests of a
         Participant or beneficiary of a Participant of any kind or nature
         shall be in any way subject to legal process to levy upon, garnish or
         attach the same for payment of any claim against the Participant or
         beneficiary of a Participant; and no Participant or beneficiary of a
         Participant shall have any right of any kind whatsoever with respect
         to the Trust, or any estate or interest therein, or with respect to
         any other property or right, other than the right to receive such
         distributions as are lawfully made out of the Trust, as and when the
         same respectively are due and payable under the terms of this Plan and
         the Trust.

                 (b)      Notwithstanding the provisions of section 15.2(a),
         the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustees to make payments
         pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Section
         414(p) of the Code.  The Administrator shall establish procedures
         consistent with Section 414(p) of the Code to determine if any order
         received by the Administrator or any other fiduciary of the Plan is a
         Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

         15.3    GOVERNING LAW.  This Plan shall be administered, construed and
enforced according to the laws of the State of Florida, except to the extent
such laws have been expressly preempted by federal law.

         15.4    ACTION BY EMPLOYER.  Whenever the Company or another Employer
under the terms of this Plan is permitted or required to do or perform any act,
it shall be done and performed by the Board of Directors (or an executive
committee of the Board of Directors) of the Company or such other Employer and
shall be evidenced by proper resolution of such Board of Directors certified by
the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company or such other Employer.

         15.5    ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS.  In the event it becomes impossible for
the Company, another Employer, the Plan Administrator, or the Trustees to
perform any act required by this Plan, then the Company, such other Employer,
the Administrator, or the Trustees, as the case may be, may perform such
alternative act that most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this
Plan.

         15.6    GENDER.  Throughout this Plan, and whenever appropriate, the
masculine gender shall be deemed to include the feminine and neuter; the
singular, the plural; and vice versa.

identified in Appendix A/Part 1 shall be selected by the Plan Sponsor based on
the information provided by MetLife.  The Plan Sponsor may elect to offer
participants other investment options with the approval of MetLife, as provided
within the Service Agreement between the Plan Sponsor and MetLife.  The Plan
Sponsor shall provide the Trustee with not less than 90 days prior notice of
its election to offer participants any other investment options.

         (b)     The Trustee shall transfer to each investment option available
as a part of the Trust Fund such portion of the assets of the Trust
attributable to participants' 401(k) Contribution Accounts (and, if applicable,
participants' Matching Contribution Accounts), and shall invest and reinvest
such assets, as the participants direct in accordance with the specific
provisions of the Plan and the Service Agreement.  All interest, dividends and
other income received with respect to, and any proceeds received from the sale
or other disposition of, securities or other property held in an investment
option shall be credited to and reinvested in such investment option, and all
expenses of the Trust which are properly allocable to a particular investment
option shall be so allocated and charged.

         (c)     The Trustee is the plan fiduciary referred to in Labor
Regulation Section 2550.404c-1(b)(2)(i)(A), to whom participants may give
investment instructions with respect to their 401(k) Contribution Accounts
(and, if applicable, participants' Matching Contribution Accounts) and who
shall be obligated to comply with any such instructions except as otherwise
provided in said section of the Labor Regulation.  Neither the Trustee nor its
Agent shall render investment advice to any person in connection with the
selection of such investments.  To the extent provided by Section 404(c) of
ERISA, neither the Plan Sponsor, the Trustee, nor MetLife shall be responsible
for the selection of each participant's investments under the Trust.  The Plan
Sponsor and the Trustee, as well as its Agent, shall maintain the Trust in a
manner that will minimize potential liability to each fiduciary of the Plan and
the Trust, as permitted under ERISA Section 404(c), and Title 29 of the U.S.
Code of Federal Regulations ("Labor Reg.") Section 2550.404c-1.

         (d)     To the extent the investment of the Trust Fund is not
otherwise governed by paragraphs (a), (b), and (c), and unless otherwise
required by ERISA, the regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the
Department of Labor, or the terms of the Plan, the

Trustee or its Agent may invest and reinvest the principal and income of the
Trust Fund, without distinction between principal and income, in such
securities or other property, real or personal, within or without the United
States, as it in its sole discretion shall deem proper including, without
limitations, interests and part interests in any bond and mortgage or note and
mortgage and interests and part interests in certificates of deposit,
commercial paper and other short-term or demand obligations, secured or
unsecured, whether issued by governmental or quasi-governmental agencies or
corporations or by any firm or corporation, capital, common and preferred,
voting and nonvoting stock (regardless of dividend or earnings record),
including shares of mutual funds and to hold such securities or property in one
or more funds.  Subject to the limitations set forth above, the Trustee or its
Agent may, in its sole discretion, keep such portion of the Trust Fund in cash
and cash balances or hold all or any portion of the Trust Fund in savings
accounts, certificates of deposit, and other types of time or demand deposits
with any appropriate financial institution or quasi-financial institution,
either domestic or foreign (including any such institution operated or
maintained by the Trustee in its corporate capacity) as the Trustee may from
time to time determine to be in the best interests of the Trust Fund.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise authorized by ERISA or by
regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Department of Labor, the
Trustee shall maintain the indicia of ownership of all securities or other
investments within the jurisdiction of the District Courts of the United
States.

         (e)     If required in connection with the provisions of paragraphs
(a) through (d) above, the Plan Sponsor may appoint one or more "investment
managers," as defined in Section 3(38) of ERISA.  Any investment manager so
appointed shall be (i) an investment adviser registered as such under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, (ii) a bank, or (iii) an insurance company
qualified to perform investment management services under the laws of more than
one state of the United States.  In the event that the investment manager
appointed hereunder is a bank or a trust company, or an affiliate of a bank or
a trust company, the Trustee or its Agent shall, upon the direction of the Plan
Sponsor, transfer funds to such bank, trust company, or affiliate for
investment through the medium of any fund created and administered by such
bank, trust company, or affiliate, acting as trustee therefor, for the
collective investment of the assets of employee benefit trusts, provided that
such fund is qualified under the applicable provisions of the Code and while
any portion of the assets are so invested, such fund shall constitute part of
the applicable Plan or Plans, and the instrument creating such fund shall
constitute part of this Trust.  In order to implement the provisions of this
paragraph, the Trustee and its Agent are authorized to enter into any required
ancillary

trust, agency or other type of agreement with an investment manager, or its
affiliate, as described in the preceding sentence, which ancillary agreement
shall be provided to the Plan Sponsor for approval prior to its execution.

         (f)     Nothing in this provision shall preclude the Plan Sponsor from
investing Plan assets in mutual funds.

         (g)     The Plan may be designed to invest, to the extent requested by
each participant, such participant's Matching Contribution Account and 401(k)
Contribution Account, in a company stock fund established and maintained within
the Publix Super Markets, Inc. 401(k) SMART Trust Number 2.  Alternatively, the
Plan may be designed to invest all of each participant's Matching Contribution
Account, and, to the extent requested by each participant, such participant's
401(k) Contribution Account, in such company stock fund.  As required by the
terms of the Service Agreement, the Trustee, and its Agent, shall from time to
time transfer cash to and from Trust Number 2 in order to facilitate purchases
and sales of units attributable to the company stock fund held within Trust
Number 2.

         FOURTH: Payments.  Subject to the provisions of Article FIFTEENTH
hereof, the Trustee or its Agent shall from time to time transfer cash or, if
permitted by the terms of the Plan, other property from the Trust Fund to, or
for the account of, participants and such other persons, including a receiving
or paying agent designated by the Plan Sponsor, at such addresses, in such
amounts, for such purposes and in such manner as the Plan Sponsor may direct,
provided that such transfer is administratively feasible, and the Trustee and
its Agent shall incur no liability to the extent that any such payment is made
in accordance with the directions of the Plan Sponsor.  Except as otherwise
provided by any separate written agreement between the Plan Sponsor and the
Trustee or MetLife, the Plan Sponsor shall be responsible to insure that any
payment made at its direction conforms with the provisions of the Plan, the
provisions of this Trust Agreement and ERISA, and the Trustee shall have no
duty to determine the rights or benefits of any person in the Trust Fund or
under the Plan or to inquire into the right or power of the Plan Sponsor to
direct any such payment.

         FIFTH:  Administrative Powers.

         (a)     The Trustee or its Agent is authorized to exercise from time
to time, in its sole discretion (unless otherwise provided), the following
powers with respect to any property, real or personal, of the Trust Fund, it
being intended that these powers be construed in the broadest possible manner,
consistent with the requirements of ERISA:

         of all such suits, legal proceedings and claims and, except in the
         case of a suit, legal proceeding or claim involving solely the
         Trustee's or its Agent's actions or omissions to act, shall obtain the
         written consent of the Plan Sponsor before settling, compromising or
         submitting to binding arbitration any claim, suit or legal proceeding
         of any nature whatsoever;

                 (3)      the power to vote upon any securities of any

         attorneys with or without power of substitution, and to distribute
         proxy materials received on each participant directed investment to

         the participant; and

         any and all deeds, leases, notes, bonds, guarantees, mortgages,
         conveyances, contracts, waivers, releases or other instruments in
         writing necessary or proper for the accomplishment of any of the
         foregoing powers;

                 (5)      the power to transfer assets of the Trust Fund to the
         Employer Securities Trust Fund or to a successor trustee of this Trust
         Fund as provided in Article TWELFTH;

                 (6)      the power to borrow money and pledge any property of
         the Trust Fund for the payment of such loan, in each case upon the
         written direction of the Plan Sponsor; and lastly

                 (7)      the power to exercise, generally, any of the powers
         which an individual owner might exercise in connection with property
         either real, personal or mixed held by the Trust Fund, and to do all
         other acts that the Trustee or its Agent may deem necessary or proper
         to carry out any of the powers set forth

         in this Article FIFTH or otherwise in the best interests of the Trust
         Fund.

         (b)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that an investment
manager is appointed pursuant to Article THIRD hereof, such investment manager
shall exercise such of the powers enumerated in this Article FIFTH and
otherwise contained in this Trust Agreement with respect to the portion of the
Trust Fund subject to its control as may be specified in the instrument under
which the investment manager was appointed and to hold and retain any
securities or other property which it may so acquire.

         SIXTH:  Fiduciary Standards and Additional Obligations.  The Trustee
or its Agent (or any investment manager, agent, or trustee, appointed pursuant
to Article THIRD or FIFTH hereof) shall (i) discharge its duties hereunder with
the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing
that a prudent man acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters
would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like
aims; (ii) subject to the investment funds specified in the Plan, if any, and
to the extent required by ERISA, diversify the investments of the Trust Fund so
as to minimize the risk of large losses, unless under the circumstances it is
clearly prudent not to do so; and (iii) perform such duties as are specified in
the Plan and this Trust Agreement, and which are specified and/or contemplated
in the Service Agreement, insofar as such provisions are consistent with ERISA.

         The Trustee or its Agent (or any investment manager, agent or trustee
appointed pursuant to Article THIRD or FIFTH hereof) shall not engage in any
transaction which it knows or should know violates Section 406 of ERISA.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee or its Agent (or any investment
manager, agent or trustee appointed pursuant to Article THIRD or FIFTH hereof)
may, in accordance with any appropriate exemption provided under ERISA or upon
the approval of the Secretary of the Department of Labor, enter into any
transaction otherwise prohibited under Section 406 of ERISA.

         Except as otherwise provided herein, or in the Plan or the Service
Agreement, the Trustee or its Agent shall not be responsible for the
administration of the Plan, for determining the funding policy of the Plan or
the adequacy of the Trust Fund to meet and discharge liabilities under the
Plan.  Except as otherwise provided in Article NINTH or in the Plan or the
Service Agreement, the Trustee or its Agent shall not be responsible for any
failure of the Plan Sponsor to discharge any of its responsibilities with
respect to the Plan nor be required to enforce payment of any contributions to
the Trust Fund.

         SEVENTH:         Expenses of Administration.  Except as otherwise
provided by this Trust Agreement and the Service Agreement, the Plan Sponsor
shall bear all expenses of implementing the Plan and this Trust.  For its
services, the Trustee and its Agent shall be entitled to receive compensation
in accordance with the terms of "Appendix F" of the Service Agreement (and, as
between the Trustee and its Agent, in accordance with any separate agreement
between the Trustee and MetLife).  To the extent consistent with the foregoing,
the Plan Sponsor may pay all direct expenses of the administration of the Trust
Fund, including any Trustee's compensation, the expenses incurred by the plan
administrator in discharging its duties, all income or other taxes of any kind
whatsoever that may be levied or assessed under existing or future laws upon or
in respect of the Trust Fund, and any interest that may be payable on money
borrowed by the Trustee for the purpose of the Trust Fund; and any adopting
employer may pay such expenses as relate to participants employed by such
employer.  Any such payment by the Plan Sponsor or an adopting employer shall
not be deemed a contribution to the Plan.  With the written consent of the Plan
Sponsor, such expenses may be paid out of the assets of the Trust Fund.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no excise tax or
other liability imposed upon the Trustee, the plan administrator or anyone else
for failure to comply with the provisions of any federal law shall be subject
to payment or reimbursement from the assets of the Trust Fund.

         EIGHTH:          Prohibition of Diversion.

         (a)     At no time prior to the satisfaction of all liabilities with
respect to participants in the Plan and their beneficiaries shall any part of
the corpus or income of the Trust Fund be used for, or diverted to, purposes
other than for the exclusive benefit of such participants and their
beneficiaries.  Except as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) below, and Article
THIRTEENTH, the assets of the Trust Fund shall never inure to the benefit of
the Plan Sponsor and shall be held for the exclusive purpose of providing
benefits to participants in the Plan and their beneficiaries and defraying the
reasonable expenses of administering the Plan.

         (b)     In the case of a contribution that is made by the Plan Sponsor
by a mistake of fact, paragraph (a) above shall not prohibit the return to the
Plan Sponsor of such contribution at the direction of the Plan Sponsor within
one year after the payment of the contribution.

         (c)     If a contribution by the Plan Sponsor is expressly conditioned
upon the deductibility of the contribution under Section 404 of the Code, then
to the extent such deduction is disallowed, paragraph (a) above shall not
prohibit the return to the Plan Sponsor of such contribution at the direction
of the Plan Sponsor,

to the extent disallowed, within one year after the date of such disallowance.
Contributions which are not deductible in the taxable year in which made but
are deductible in subsequent taxable years shall not be considered to be
disallowed for purposes of this paragraph (c).

         NINTH:       Indemnity.

         (a)     To the extent permitted under ERISA and other applicable law,
the Plan Sponsor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its Agent,
their directors, officers, and employees with respect to any and all claims,
liabilities, lawsuits, actions, judgments, settlements, penalties, expenses,
and costs of any kind, including attorneys' fees, resulting from or arising out
of or in connection with the Plan Sponsor's activities hereunder, except to the
extent that it is determined that such claim, liability, lawsuit, action,
judgment, settlement, penalty, expense, or cost was caused by or resulted from
the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or its Agent, their
directors, officers, trustees, employees or agents.

         (b)     To the extent permitted under ERISA and other applicable law,
the Trustee and its Agent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Plan Sponsor,
its directors, officers, trustees, employees or agents with respect to any and
all claims, liabilities, lawsuits, actions, judgments, settlements, penalties,
expenses, and costs of any kind, including attorneys' fees, resulting from or
arising out of or in connection with the Trustee's, and/or its Agent's,
provision of services or failure to provide services pursuant to this Trust
Agreement, except to the extent that it is determined that such claim,
liability, lawsuit, action, judgment, settlement, penalty, expense, or cost was
caused by or resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct of the Plan
Sponsor, its directors, officers, trustees, employees or agents.

         TENTH:       Record Keeping, Reporting and Disclosure.

         (a)     The Trustee or its Agent shall keep accurate, detailed records
of all investments, receipts, disbursements and other transactions relating to
the Trust Fund, which shall be made available at all reasonable times to
persons designated by the Plan Sponsor or as may be required by law.  The
Trustee or its Agent shall value the assets of the Trust Fund and render
accountings to the Plan Sponsor annually (and at such additional times required
by the Service Agreement).  The Plan Sponsor may approve such accounting at
such times and in such manner, and the liability of the Trustee and its Agent
shall be limited, as provided by the Service Agreement.  The Trustee or its
Agent shall render to the Plan Sponsor, at least quarterly, a statement of the
Trust Fund assets and their values and, whenever a contribution is made to the
Trust Fund other than in cash, a statement of the value of such property

________________________________________________________________________________

                                       9
<PAGE>   12
on the date it is received by the Trustee or its Agent.  The Trustee or its
Agent shall prepare all additional reports required in order for MetLife to
comply with the terms of the Service Agreement.

         (b)     Except to the extent otherwise permitted by ERISA or other
applicable law, no person, other than the Plan Sponsor, may require an
accounting or bring any action against the Trustee or its Agent with respect to
the Trust Fund.

         (c)     Proxy materials received for each participant directed mutual
fund investment sponsored by MetLife or State Street Research & Management
Company, or any other affiliate of MetLife or State Street Research &
Management Company, will be promptly mailed to the appropriate participant by
the Trustee or its Agent, and the Trustee or its Agent will follow instructions
received from the participant with respect to the mutual fund.  For any other
separate account investments, the Trustee shall be solely responsible for
exercising any voting rights as authorized by Article FIFTH.

         ELEVENTH:        Plan Sponsor's Designees.  The Treasurer of the Plan
Sponsor shall certify to the Trustee and its Agent the names of the persons
from time to time authorized to act on behalf of the Plan Sponsor as agents
thereof.  All directions to the Trustee or its Agent by the persons authorized
to act on behalf of the Plan Sponsor shall be in writing.  The Trustee and its
Agent shall be entitled to rely, without further inquiry, upon all such written
directions received from the persons authorized to act on behalf of the Plan
Sponsor.

         TWELFTH:         Resignation or Removal of Trustee.  This Trust
Agreement may be terminated at any time without cause, by the Plan Sponsor upon
at least ninety (90) days prior written notice, and by the Trustee upon at
least one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice.  In the case of the
resignation or removal of the Trustee and its Agent, the Plan Sponsor shall
appoint a successor trustee who shall have the same powers and duties as those
conferred upon the Trustee and its Agent.  Upon the resignation or removal of
the Trustee and its Agent and the appointment of a successor trustee, the
Trustee or its Agent shall account for the administration of the Trust Fund up
to the date of its resignation or removal in the manner provided in Article
TENTH hereof and, upon the approval or deemed approval of such account, the
Trustee or its Agent shall transfer to the successor trustee all of the assets
then constituting the Trust Fund.  The Trustee or its Agent may transfer such
assets prior to the completion of such accounting if the Plan Sponsor agrees
thereto in writing.  The term "Trustee" as used in this Trust Agreement shall
be deemed to apply to any successor trustee acting hereunder.  The successor
trustee, and any successor to the trust business of the Trustee by merger,
consolidation or otherwise, shall have all the powers given the originally
named Trustee and its Agent.

<PAGE>   13
         THIRTEENTH:      Amendment.

         (a)     The Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor may amend all or
any part of this Trust Agreement at any time through the adoption of
appropriate resolutions provided, however, that any amendment shall not be
effective until the instrument of amendment has been agreed to and executed by
the Trustee or its Agent.  Any such amendment or modification of this Trust
Agreement may be retroactive if necessary or appropriate to qualify or maintain
the Trust Fund as a part of a plan and trust exempt from Federal income
taxation under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code, the provisions of ERISA,
or any other applicable provisions of Federal or state law, as now in effect or
hereafter amended or adopted, and any regulations issued thereunder, including,
without limitation, any regulations issued by the United States Treasury
Department or the United States Department of Labor.

         (b)     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article THIRTEENTH
to the contrary, no amendment shall divert any part of the Trust Fund to, and
no part of the Trust Fund shall be used for any purpose other than the
exclusive benefit of the participants and their beneficiaries or for the
administration expenses of the plan administrator and this Trust.

         FOURTEENTH:      Merger or Consolidation.  The Plan and this Trust may
not be merged or consolidated with, and the assets or liabilities of the Plan
and this Trust may not be transferred to, any other plan or trust unless each
participant would receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation
or transfer of the plan and trust then terminated that is equal to or greater
than the benefit the participant would have received immediately before the
merger, consolidation or transfer of the Plan and this Trust had then
terminated.

         FIFTEENTH:       Termination.  This Trust Agreement, the Trust Fund
hereby created, and the Plan  may be terminated at any time by the Plan
Sponsor.  In the event the Plan Sponsor decides to terminate this Trust, such
decision shall be evidenced by an appropriate resolution of its Board of
Directors and a certified copy of such resolution shall be delivered to the
Trustee together with a notice of termination.  Upon receipt of such notice of
termination, the Trustee or its Agent shall, after payment by the Plan Sponsor
of all expenses reasonably incurred in the administration of the Trust Fund,
including such compensation as the Trustee or its Agent may be entitled to, and
upon approval of the appropriate governmental or quasi-governmental authorities
(if such approval shall be required under applicable law), then distribute the
Trust Fund to such persons or entities, including the Plan Sponsor, at such
time, in such manner, and in such amounts as the Plan Sponsor shall direct,
which direction shall be in conformity with the provisions of the Plan and
ERISA.

<PAGE>   14
         SIXTEENTH:       Adopting Employers.

         (a)     An affiliated corporation of the Plan Sponsor which has
adopted the Plan in accordance with its terms shall become a party to this
Trust Agreement by delivering to the Plan Sponsor and the Trustee or its Agent
a certified copy of a resolution of its Board of Directors to the effect that
it agrees to adopt the Plan, to become a party to this Trust Agreement, and to
be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Trust Agreement.
The Plan Sponsor shall have the sole authority to enforce this Trust Agreement
on behalf of any such affiliated corporation and the Trustee or its Agent shall
in no event be required to deal with any such affiliated corporation except by
dealing with the Plan Sponsor, acting as agent for such affiliated corporation.
Irrespective of the number of affiliated corporations which may become parties
to this Trust Agreement, the Trustee or its Agent shall in all respects invest
and administer the Trust Fund as a single fund for investment and accounting
purposes without allocation of any part of the Trust Fund as between the Plan
Sponsor and any such affiliated corporation.

         (b)     An affiliated corporation which has adopted the Plan shall
cease to be a party to this Trust Agreement as of the date established by the
affiliated corporation; provided, however, that prior to such termination date
the Plan Sponsor shall deliver to the Trustee or its Agent a certified copy of
a resolution of such affiliated corporation's Board of Directors terminating
its participation in the Plan.  In such event, or in the event of the merger,
consolidation, sale of property or stock, separation, reorganization or
liquidation of the Plan Sponsor or of any such affiliated corporation, or in
the event of the establishment, modification or continuance of any other
retirement plan which separately or in conjunction with this Plan qualifies
under Section 401(a) of the Code, the Trustee or its Agent shall continue to
hold the portion of the Trust Fund which is attributable to the participation
in the Plan of the employees and their beneficiaries affected by such
termination or by such transaction, and this Trust Agreement shall continue in
force with respect to such portion, until otherwise directed by the Plan
Sponsor, in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and ERISA.

         SEVENTEENTH:     Alienation.  No interest in the Trust Fund shall be
assignable or subject to anticipation, sale, transfer, mortgage, pledge,
charge, garnishment, attachment, bankruptcy or encumbrance or levy of any kind,
and the Trustee or its Agent shall not recognize any attempt to assign, sell,
transfer, mortgage, pledge, charge, garnish, attach or otherwise encumber the
same except to the extent that such attempt is made (1) pursuant to a court
order determined by the Plan Sponsor to be a Qualified Domestic Relations
Order, as defined in Section 414 of the Code and Section 206 of ERISA, or (2)
in connection with any loan made to a participant by

the Trustee or its Agent pursuant to the terms of the Plan and this Trust as
permitted by Section 4975 of the Code and Section 408 of ERISA.

         EIGHTEENTH:      Bond.  The Trustee or its Agent shall not be required
to give any bond or any other security for the faithful performance of its
duties under this Trust Agreement except as required by law.

         NINETEENTH:      Assignment and Successors.  Except as otherwise
provided in this Article, neither party shall assign its rights or continuing
obligations under this Trust Agreement without the prior written consent of the
other party.  Any corporation which shall, by merger, consolidation, purchase
or otherwise, succeed to substantially all the trust business of the Trustee

         shall take effect on the date therein specified; and any Trustee

         thirty (30) days from the date of the giving of such notice unless the
         Plan Administrator shall agree to an earlier date.  The Company may
         appoint a corporation or an individual or individuals to be successor
         Trustee hereunder in the place of any removed or resigned Trustee.
         Any notice required or permitted by this section 4.6(a) shall be

         effective date of resignation, the removed or resigning Trustee shall

         shall, upon the expiration of such 30-day period, transfer, pay over
         and deliver the Publix Stock Trust Fund to the Plan Administrator,
         without any responsibility upon the removed or resigning Trustee for
         any misapplication or to see to the further application or disposition
         of the Publix Stock Trust Fund by any successor Trustee or the Plan
         Administrator, as the case may be.  Notwithstanding any such transfer,
         payment and delivery of the Publix Stock Trust Fund to any successor
         Trustee or to the Administrator, as the case may be, the removed or
         resigning Trustee may have its entire account judicially settled and
         it shall be entitled

         to the payment out of the Publix Stock Trust Fund of any compensation
         due to it up to the time of removal or resignation and of any expenses
         or other disbursements, whether theretofore or thereafter arising, for
         which the removed or resigning Trustee would be entitled to
         reimbursement if the Publix Stock Trust Fund had not been so
         transferred, paid over and delivered.

         4.7     PERIODIC ACCOUNTING.

                 (a)      Within ninety (90) days after the end of each Plan
         Year, and within sixty (60) days after removal or resignation, the
         Trustee shall value the Publix Stock Trust Fund and furnish the Plan
         Administrator with a verified accounting of the Publix Stock Trust
         Fund for such Plan Year, or for the portion thereof ending with the
         date of such removal or resignation, which accounting shall include a
         record of receipts and disbursements, changes in investments and
         realized appreciation and depreciation for such year or period, and a
         statement of assets (showing both book value and fair market value)
         and liabilities on hand as of the end of such year or period.

                 (b)      Except as otherwise permitted by law, all rights of
         every Participant and every beneficiary of a Participant under the
         Plan or this Agreement with relation to the Publix Stock Trust Fund or
         that may arise against or affect the Trustee shall be enforced
         exclusively by the Administrator.  The Administrator is hereby given
         the express power and authority to enforce all such rights as a
         representative of every Participant and beneficiary under the Plan.
         In any action or proceeding with relation to the Publix Stock Trust
         Fund or brought by or against the Trustee, the Plan Administrator
         shall be deemed to represent every interested Participant and
         beneficiary.


                                   ARTICLE V

                   INVESTMENT OF THE PUBLIX STOCK TRUST FUND

         5.1     INVESTMENT IN EMPLOYER SECURITIES.

                 (a)      The Publix Stock Trust Fund is designed to invest
         each Participant's Matching Contribution Account (and, at the election
         of the Participant, his Savings Contribution Account) primarily in,
         and hold, Employer Securities, as provided in the Plan, for the
         benefit of the Participants and their beneficiaries.  Accordingly, the
         Trustee may invest all of the assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund in
         Employer Securities.

                 (b)      Employer Securities may be purchased or otherwise
         acquired from any source, including any party that might be a party in
         interest (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of


                                       7.
<PAGE>   10
         ERISA) or a disqualified person (within the meaning of Section 4975(e)
         (2) of the Code); provided, however, that if Employer Securities are
         purchased or acquired from such a party in interest or disqualified
         person, the Trustee shall neither pay more than adequate consideration
         (within the meaning of Section 3(18) of ERISA), nor shall pay any
         commission to any person in connection with such acquisition.

                 (c)      As required by the terms of Appendix E of the Service
         Agreement and as directed by the Plan Administrator (or by MetLife as
         its agent), the Trustee shall from time to time transfer cash to and
         from Trust Number 1 in connection with purchases and sales of units of
         Employer Securities.

         5.2     INVESTMENT IN OTHER ASSETS.

                 (a)      The Plan Administrator, at its discretion, may
         establish in writing a funding policy and method for the Plan and this
         Trust, if it determines that the Trustee should invest a substantial
         portion of the Trust assets in investments other than Employer
         Securities.  Any such funding policy shall be reviewed at least once
         each year.  All actions taken with respect to such funding policy and
         the reasons therefor shall be recorded in writing by the Plan
         Administrator.

                 (b)      The responsibility for all investments in assets
         other than Employer Securities held as part of the Publix Stock Trust
         Fund shall be that of the Trustee, unless one or more Investment
         Managers have been appointed, in which event the responsibility for
         such investments shall be allocated between the Trustee and the
         Investment Managers in accordance with the written direction of the
         Trustee and the Trustee and each Investment Manager shall have no
         responsibility for each other's investment decisions.

                 (c)      Investment decisions made by any Investment Manager
         shall be communicated to the Trustee, and shall be carried out
         forthwith either by the Investment Manager or its agent or by the
         Trustee acting upon the direction of the Investment Manager.

         5.3     POWERS.  To the extent that it is not inconsistent with the
investment of the assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund primarily in Employer
Securities and the provisions of sections 5.1 and 5.2, in carrying out their
duties hereunder, each Investment Manager, if any, (with respect to making and
carrying out its investment decisions) and the Trustee (with respect to
carrying out the decisions of an Investment Manager or, to the extent there is
none, with respect to making and carrying out investment decisions) are
authorized and empowered to:


                                       8.
<PAGE>   11
                 (a)      sell, redeem or otherwise realize the value of any
         assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund;

                 (b)      invest and reinvest all or any part of the Publix
         Stock Trust Fund, the income therefrom and the increment thereof in
         any common or preferred stocks, bonds, mortgages, secured or unsecured
         notes, secured or unsecured debentures, mutual funds, other
         securities, or commodities; any common trust fund operated by the
         Trustee (provided that as long as the Trust has any investments in a
         common fund available only to pension trusts and profit sharing trusts
         that meet the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code, then such
         common trust fund shall constitute an integral part of this Trust and
         of the Plan); any guaranteed annuity contracts or segregated
         investments with insurance companies; or property of any kind or
         nature whatsoever, real, personal or mixed, including mortgaged real
         property, without regard to any rule of law or statute designating
         securities to be held for trust funds; and to hold cash uninvested (or
         in deposits bearing a reasonable rate of interest, in a bank or other
         similar institution supervised by the United States or a state,
         including, if applicable, the Trustee) at any time and from time to
         time;

                 (c)      without limitation on the foregoing, buy and sell
         listed options and/or sell covered options and repurchase the same;

                 (d)      vote upon any stocks, bonds or other securities of
         any corporation or other issuer held in the Trust (including Employer
         Securities held pursuant to section 5.1), and otherwise consent to or
         request any action on the part of such corporation or other issuer,
         and give general or special proxies or powers of attorneys with or
         without power of substitution; and

                 (e)      become a party to the reorganization, consolidation
         or merger of any corporation, and for such purposes execute any
         agreements or consents, or participate in or take any steps to
         effectuate the same, whether or not any specific plans have been
         formulated therefor and in connection therewith, deposit any such
         securities with creditors or stockholders' committees, bodies or other
         protective groups, and surrender or exchange any such securities for
         such debentures, certificates, receipts, agreements or proceeds as may
         be issued or paid by such committees, bodies or groups, or
         reorganized, consolidated or merged corporations, and generally
         exercise all the rights and powers, whether herein enumerated or not,
         as may be lawfully exercised by persons holding similar property in
         their own right.

         5.4     WRITTEN INSTRUMENTS.  The Trustee and each Investment Manager
shall make, execute and deliver, as Trustee or Investment Manager, as the case
may be, with provisions for no individual liability, all instruments in writing
necessary for the exercise of any of the foregoing powers.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                              INVESTMENT MANAGERS

         6.1     APPOINTMENT.  The Trustee may appoint one or more Investment
Managers to manage all or part of the assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund
that are not invested in Employer Securities; each such appointment shall
specify the particular assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund to be managed by
such Investment Manager.

         6.2     WRITTEN ACCEPTANCE.  Before any such appointment becomes
effective, any Investment Manager so appointed shall accept such designation in
writing and, as part of such acceptance, shall acknowledge that it is a
fiduciary with respect to the Plan.

         6.3     RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL. The Trustee may at any time remove an
Investment Manager acting hereunder, and any Investment Manager acting
hereunder may at any time resign, in each case in such manner as may be or may
have been agreed by the Trustee and the Investment Manager.  The Trustee may
appoint any individual,  individuals, partnership, corporation or other entity
to be a successor Investment Manager hereunder in the place of any removed or
resigned Investment Manager.


                                  ARTICLE VII

                     EXPENSES OF ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
                        AND THE PUBLIX STOCK TRUST FUND

         The Company shall bear all expenses of implementing the Plan and this
Trust.  For its services, any corporate trustee shall be entitled to receive
reasonable compensation for the handling of a retirement trust as set forth in
a separate agreement with the Company.  Any individual Trustee shall be
entitled to such compensation as shall be arranged between the Company and such
individual Trustee by separate instrument; provided, however, that no person
who is already receiving full-time pay from any Employer or any Affiliate shall
receive compensation from the Publix Stock Trust Fund (except for the
reimbursement of expenses properly and actually incurred).  The Company may pay
all expenses of the administration of the Publix Stock Trust Fund, including
the Trustee's compensation, the compensation of any Investment Manager, the
expense incurred by the Plan Administrator in discharging its duties, all
income or other taxes of any kind whatsoever that may be levied or assessed
under existing or future laws upon or in respect of the Publix Stock Trust
Fund, and any interest that may be payable on money borrowed by the Trustee for
the purpose of the Trust and any Employer may pay such expenses as relate to
Participants employed by such Employer.  Any such payment by the Company or an
Employer shall not be deemed a contribution to the Plan.  Such expenses shall
be paid out of the assets of the Publix Stock Trust Fund unless paid or
provided for by the Company or another Employer.  Notwithstanding


                                      10.
<PAGE>   13
anything contained herein to the contrary, no excise tax or other liability
imposed upon the Trustee, the Plan Administrator or anyone else for failure to
comply with the provisions of any federal law shall be subject to payment or
reimbursement from the assets of the Trust.


                                  ARTICLE VIII

                           AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

         8.1     LIMITATIONS ON AMENDMENTS.  The Plan and this Trust may be
amended or terminated by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan
and this Trust; provided, however, that no such amendment:

                 (a)      shall have the effect of vesting in any Employer,
         directly or indirectly, any interest, ownership or control in any of
         the present or subsequent funds held subject to the terms of this
         Trust;

                 (b)      shall cause or permit any property held subject to
         the terms of this Trust to be diverted to purposes other than the
         exclusive benefit of the Participants and their beneficiaries or for
         the administration expenses of the Plan Administrator and this Trust;

                 (c)      shall reduce any vested interest of a Participant on
         the later of the date the amendment is adopted or the date the
         amendment is effective, except as permitted by law;

                 (d)      shall reduce the Accounts of any Participant;

                 (e)      shall amend any vesting schedule with respect to any
         Participant who has at least three (3) Years of Service at the end of
         the election period described below, except as permitted by law,
         unless each such Participant shall have the right to elect to have the
         vesting schedule in effect prior to such amendment apply with respect
         to him, such election, if any, to be made during the period beginning
         not later than the date the amendment is adopted and ending no earlier
         than sixty (60) days after the latest of the date the amendment is
         adopted, the amendment becomes effective or the Participant is issued
         written notice of the amendment by his Employer or the Plan
         Administrator; or

                 (f)      shall increase the duties or liabilities of the
         Trustee without its written consent.

         8.2     TERMINATION OR DISCONTINUANCE.  Any Employer, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may permanently discontinue making contributions under the
Plan or may terminate the Plan and this Trust


                                      11.
<PAGE>   14
(with respect to all Employers if it is the Company, or with respect to itself
alone if it is an Employer other than the Company), completely or partially, at
any time without any liability whatsoever for such permanent discontinuance or
complete or partial termination.

         8.3     METHOD OF DISCONTINUANCE.  In the event an Employer decides to
permanently discontinue making contributions, such decision shall be evidenced
by an appropriate resolution of its Board and a certified copy of such
resolution shall be delivered to the Plan Administrator and the Trustee.  All
of the assets in the Publix Stock Trust Fund belonging to the affected
Participants on the date of discontinuance specified in such resolutions shall
be held, administered and distributed by the Trustee in the manner provided
under the Plan and this agreement.

         8.4     METHOD OF TERMINATION.  In the event an Employer decides to
terminate the Plan and this Trust, such decision shall be evidenced by an
appropriate resolution of its Board and a certified copy of such resolution
shall be delivered to the Plan Administrator and the Trustee.  After payment of
all expenses and proportional adjustments of individual accounts to reflect
such expenses and other changes in the value of the Publix Stock Trust Fund as
of the date of termination, each affected Participant or the beneficiary of any
such Participant shall be entitled to receive, in a lump sum, any amount then
credited to his Account.


                                   ARTICLE IX

                              ACCEPTANCE OF TRUST

         The Trustee hereby accepts this trust and agrees to hold all the
property now or hereafter constituting the Publix Stock Trust Fund hereunder,
subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement.


                                   ARTICLE X

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

         10.1    MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION.  The Plan and this Trust may not be
merged or consolidated with, and the assets or liabilities of the Plan and this
Trust may not be transferred to, any other plan or trust unless each
Participant would receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation
or transfer of the plan and trust then terminated that is equal to or greater
than the benefit the Participant would have received immediately before the
merger, consolidation or transfer if the Plan and this Trust had then
terminated.

         10.2    ALIENATION.

                 (a)      Except as provided in section 10.2(b) and Article XI
         of the Plan, no Participant or beneficiary of a Participant shall have
         any right to assign, transfer, appropriate, encumber, commute,
         anticipate or otherwise alienate his interest in the Plan or this
         Trust or any payments to be made hereunder; no benefits, payments,
         rights or interests of a Participant or a beneficiary of a Participant
         of any kind or nature shall be in any way subject to legal process to
         levy upon, garnish or attach the same for payment of any claim against
         the Participant or beneficiary of a Participant; and no Participant or
         beneficiary of a Participant shall have any right of any kind
         whatsoever with respect to this Trust, or any estate or interest
         therein, or with respect to any other property or right, other than
         the right to receive such distributions as are lawfully made out of
         this Trust, as and when the same respectively are due and payable
         under the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.

                 (b)      Notwithstanding the provisions of section 10.2(a),
         the Plan Administrator shall direct the Trustee to make payments
         pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Section
         414(p) of the Code.

         10.3    GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement and Declaration of Trust shall
be administered, construed and enforced according to the laws of the state of

under the terms of this Agreement is permitted or required to do or perform any
act, it shall be done and performed by the Board of Directors of the Company or
such other Employer and shall be evidenced by proper resolution of such Board
of Directors certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company
or such other Employer.

         10.5    ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS.  In the event it becomes impossible for
the Company, another Employer, the Plan Administrator or the Trustee to perform
any act required by this Agreement, then the Company, such other Employer, the
Plan Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, may perform such
alternative act that most nearly carries out the intent and purpose of this
Agreement.

         10.6    GENDER.  Throughout this Agreement, and whenever appropriate,
the masculine gender shall be deemed to include the feminine and neuter; the
singular, the plural; and vice versa.

                                  401(k) Smart Plan
                                  Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have represented Publix Super Markets, Inc. (the "Company") in
connection with the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "S-8
Registration Statement") relating to the proposed public offering by the
Company (the "Offering) of up to 10,000,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock under the Company's 401(k) SMART Plan, the Company's 401(k) SMART Trust
Number 1 and the Company's 401(k) SMART Trust Number 2 (collectively the
"Plan").  This opinion is being provided as Exhibit 5 to the S-8 Registration
Statement.

         In our capacity as counsel to the Company in connection with the
Registration Statement and the Offering, we have examined and are familiar
with: (1) the Company's Articles of Incorporation and bylaws, as currently in
effect, (2) the Plan, (3) the S-8 Registration Statement and (4) such other
corporate records and documents and instruments as in our opinion are necessary
or relevant as the basis for the opinions expressed below.

         As to various questions of fact material to our opinion, we have
relied without independent investigation on statements or certificates of
officials and representatives of the Company, the Department of State of the
State of Florida and others.  In all such examinations, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures on original and certified documents and the
conformity to original and certified documents of all copies submitted to us as
conformed, photostatic or other exact copies.

         We express no opinion as to the law of any jurisdiction other than of
the State of Florida and the Federal laws of the United States of America.

         Based upon and in reliance on the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that:

         1.      The Company is a duly organized and existing corporation under
the laws of the State of Florida and its status is active.

                          shall have been offered as contemplated in the Plan;

                 c.       when certain approvals and ratifications by the
                          Company's Board of Directors relating to the Plan and

                          been duly executed, counter-signed and issued by or
                          on behalf of the Company,

the shares of Common Stock so offered and sold in the Offering will be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the capital
stock of the Company.

         This firm hereby consents to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit
