1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Principles of Consolidation

   The   financial  statements of Control Data Systems,  Inc.  ("Control
Data"  or  the  "Company") include the accounts  of  all  majority-owned
subsidiaries.  All  significant  intercompany  transactions  have   been
eliminated.

   Net Earnings Per Share

   The  net  earnings per  common share and common share equivalents  is
computed  by  dividing net earnings by the weighted  average  number  of
shares  and  dilutive common share equivalents outstanding  during  each
period. Common stock equivalents result from dilutive stock options  and
warrants computed using the treasury stock method.

4. RESTRUCTURING RESERVES, CURRENT AND NONCURRENT

   Over the past several years the Company has been transitioning from a
developer and manufacturer of proprietary mainframe computer systems  to
a  software and services provider focused on enterprise integration  and
product design and information services.

    Cash outlays for restructuring activities in the second quarter 1996
consisted primarily of $2.1 million for severance costs, which  includes
the   reduction   of   the  worldwide  workforce  by  approximately   34
individuals,  and $1.0 million for lease and other facility  obligations
related  to  commitments under leases throughout the United  States  and
Europe.   Other  cash outlays in the second quarter 1996  accounted  for
$1.1  million  consisting  of $0.8 million for litigation  matters,  and
other less significant items.  Cash outlays for the first six months  of
1996  totaled  $7.0 million, consisting primarily of  $4.0  million  for
severance costs, which includes the reduction of the worldwide workforce
by  approximately  51  individuals, $1.8 million  for  lease  and  other
facility obligations related to commitments under leases throughout  the
United  States  and Europe, and other charges of $1.1 million  primarily
for  litigation matters.  Noncash activity was associated with the  sale
of  operations in Denmark to AmeriData and includes the write-off of net
book  value  of approximately $0.8 million.  For additional  information
regarding  this divestiture, see note 3 and the Management's  Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

                              (Dollars in millions)

Company's  reported results of operations is reflected in the  exclusion
of the last four months of results for the five international operations
sold  to  AmeriData on August 31, 1995, the exclusion of  the  last  two
months  of results for the two international operations sold on  October
31,  1995,  and the exclusion of the results of the month of March  1996
for the international operation sold on March 25, 1996 (collectively the
"AmeriData  Divestitures").  See note 3 of  the  Notes  to  Consolidated
Financial  Statements for additional information regarding the AmeriData
Divestitures.

   Revenues   for  second quarter 1996 of $75.5 million decreased  41.5%
from  second quarter 1995 revenues of $129.1 million.  Revenues for  the
first  six  months of 1996 totaled $153.8 million, a decrease  of  40.7%
from  the  $259.2 million of revenues in the first six months  of  1995.
The  revenue decline in the second quarter and the first six  months  of
1996 was due primarily to decreases in hardware products and maintenance
support  sales, resulting in part from the AmeriData Divestitures.   The
majority  of  the  decrease  in hardware products  and  maintenance  and
support  sales  was attributable to lower revenues in the  Americas  and
Europe, offset by an increase in revenues in Asia.  The maintenance  and
support  revenues decline is also due to the decrease in the  number  of
proprietary systems under maintenance contracts.

   On a pro forma basis, revenues in the second quarter of 1996 of $75.5
million  decreased  5.5%  from 1995 second  quarter  revenues  of  $79.9
million.   Revenues for the first six months of 1996 of  $153.8  million
increased 1.0% from 1995 revenues for the comparable six month period of
$152.2 million.  The revenue increase was due to an increase in software
and services, offset in part by a decline in maintenance and support and
hardware product sales.  The increase in software and services  and  the
decrease  in hardware product and maintenance and support sales reflects
the Company's continuing emphasis on software and services sales related
to its target markets of electronic commerce and PDM/CAD.

</TABLE>

   Cost  of revenues for second quarter 1996 decreased by 49.0% over the
comparable period in 1995.  Cost of revenues for the first six months of
1996  decreased  by 47.3% compared to the same period  in  1995.   Gross
profit margins for second quarter 1996 decreased by 19.3% as compared to
the  second quarter 1995.  Gross profit margins for the first six months
of  1996 decreased by 21.5% as compared to the same period in 1995.  The
primary  factor  contributing to the cost of revenues and  gross  profit
margins  decreases  was  the  decline in total  revenues,  primarily  in
hardware  products  and  maintenance and support  sales.   Gross  profit
margins  increased to 34.9% in second quarter 1996 from 25.3% in  second
quarter 1995.  Gross profit margins increased to 33.8% for the first six
months  of  1996  from  25.5% in the comparable  period  in  1995.   The
increases  in  gross  margins primarily reflect the exclusion  of  lower
profit  margin  hardware  product sales associated  with  the  AmeriData
Divestitures.  On a pro forma basis, gross profit margins  increased  to
34.9%  in  second  quarter 1996 from 31.0% in the comparable  period  in
1995.   Gross profit margins increased to 33.8% for the first six months
of 1996 from 31.3% for the comparable  six month period of 1995.

</TABLE>

Selling,  general  and  administrative (SG&A).   The  decrease  in  SG&A
expense  is due to the downsizing actions taken by the Company over  the
past  year and the exclusion of operating expenses associated  with  the
operations  sold in the AmeriData Divestitures.  On a pro  forma  basis,
the divested operations had lower SG&A expense to revenue ratios and the
exclusion of these operations would raise the Company's SG&A expense  to
revenue percentage.

Technical.   The  increase in technical expense is a  result  of  higher
spending  on  electronic  commerce products and  services,  one  of  the
Company's targeted markets.

</TABLE>

Interest expense.  Interest expense decreased in second quarter and  the
first  six months of 1996 from the same periods in 1995 primarily  as  a
result  of lower average daily short-term borrowings due in part to  the
AmeriData Divestitures.

Interest  income.  Interest income decreased in second quarter  and  the
first  six months of 1996 versus the comparable periods in 1995  due  to
lower average interest rate yields.

Other  income,  net.  Other income increased by $0.1  million  and  $0.6
million,  respectively, in the second quarter 1996  and  the  first  six
months  of 1996 versus the comparable periods in 1995.  The increase  in
the  first  six  months of 1996 is attributable to a  favorable  foreign
currency exchange gain of $1.2 million in the first six months  of  1996
versus a $0.2 million gain in the comparable period in 1995, and a  gain
of  $0.4  million  in  1995  for the sale of land  versus  none  in  the
comparable period in 1996.

months  of 1996 and the comparable periods in 1995 relates primarily  to
foreign   income  taxes  on  the  earnings  of  the  Company's   foreign
subsidiaries  and  foreign withholding taxes on  certain  United  States
income.

   Net   earnings  for second quarter and the first six months  of  1996
increased  by  $1.3  million and $2.0 million,  respectively,  from  the
comparable  periods  in  1995.   The  earnings  increase  is   primarily
attributable  to  lower operating expenses, higher nonoperating  income,
and  a  lower provision for income taxes.  Also contributing  to  higher
earnings  in second quarter and the first six months of 1996 versus  the
comparable  periods  of  1995 is the exclusion of  lower  profit  margin
hardware  product  sales,  operating  expenses,  and  interest  expenses
associated  with  the  operations sold in  the  AmeriData  Divestitures.
Operating  results  for  the six months ended  June  30,  1996  are  not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the  year
ending December 31, 1996.

Outlook

   The   following  factors,  among  others,  should  be  considered  in
evaluating the Company's outlook.

General.  The Company participates in the systems integration segment of
the  information systems and services market.  Equipment  manufacturers,
large consulting firms, and traditional systems integrators also compete
in  this  market segment.  There are many smaller firms also  active  in
this  market segment with no one firm having a dominant position.   Many
of  the  companies  in this market segment offer outsourcing  and  other
types  of long term agreements with their customer base.  The result  of
these  types  of  activities is to develop a backlog  of  business  that
creates  a certain predictable revenue base in future periods.   As  the
Company is just beginning to build a base of these types of arrangements
as  part of its electronic commerce offerings, revenue predictability is
currently difficult, and continuing quarterly volatility of earnings can
be expected.

Revenues.   The Company expects total revenues to decrease in 1996  from
1995 due in part to the divestitures of certain international operations
sold  to  AmeriData.  However, 1996 revenues should increase  from  1995
revenues  on  a  pro  forma basis.  Continued  growth  in  software  and
services  sales and increased outsourcing revenues associated  with  its
managed  services activities are expected to provide the basis for  this
growth.   Revenue  levels  in 1996 could be impacted  by  the  Company's
business transition and narrowed focus, as well as by the acquisition of
additional businesses or divestiture of existing operations.

Cost  of  revenues.  The Company's cost of revenues as a  percentage  of
total  revenues decreased in the second quarter and first six months  of
1996  from  the comparable periods in 1995.  Gross profit margins  as  a
percentage of total revenues increased in the second quarter  and  first
six  months  of  1996  from the comparable periods  in  1995.   Cost  of
revenues as a percentage of revenues is expected to decline in 1996  and
gross  margins as a percentage of revenues are expected to  increase  in
1996   due   in  part  to  the  divestitures  of  certain  international
operations, whose revenue mix primarily consisted of lower profit margin
hardware  products.   Due to varying gross profit margins  of  different
types  of  product  sales and varying gross profit margins  of  specific
large  projects quarter to quarter, total gross profit margins  in  1996
could be volatile.

                              (Dollars in millions)

Selling, general and administrative expenses.  SG&A expenses declined in
the  second  quarter  and first six months of 1996 from  the  comparable
periods  in  1995 due primarily to restructuring actions taken  and  the
divestitures  of  certain international operations.  SG&A  expenses  are
expected to decrease in 1996 from 1995.  However, on a pro forma  basis,
SG&A  expenses will likely increase in 1996 as the Company  expands  its
sales   activities  related  to  its  PDM/CAD  and  electronic  commerce
businesses.

Technical expenses.  Technical spending increased in the second  quarter
and  first  six  months of 1996 versus the comparable periods  in  1995.
This increase is primarily attributable to higher spending on electronic
commerce  products  and  services.  Technical spending  is  expected  to
increase  in  1996  from  1995  due  primarily  to  higher  spending  on
electronic commerce products and services, one of the Company's targeted
markets.

Income  tax  rate.   In total, the Company has $106.3 million  of  gross
deferred  tax  assets at December 31, 1995 which can be used  to  offset
taxes  on  future  earnings.   While the Company  maintains  significant
operations outside the United States, a number of these operations  also
have  deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1995 resulting  from  lower
than   expected   1994  earnings,  caused  in  part  by  the   worldwide
restructuring activity.  In the long term this will significantly reduce
the  Company's  tax  expense.   However,  given  the  wide  geographical
dispersion  of the Company's operations the overall effective  tax  rate
will  be  volatile.  The gross deferred tax assets of $106.3 million  at
December 31, 1995 decreased by $8.4 million in the first quarter of 1996
due to the sale of Denmark operations to AmeriData.

Foreign exchange.  A large percentage of the Company's revenues,  costs,
and  expenses  are transacted in currencies other than the U.S.  dollar.
As  a  result,  the Company's financial results are subject  to  foreign
exchange rate fluctuations.

Other.   See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding  other
factors concerning the Company.

Financial condition

   The  Company's cash  and short-term investments totaled $89.5 million
at  June  30, 1996 representing 40.2% of total assets.  Total  cash  and
short-term  investment  balances increased  by  $5.5  million  from  the
corresponding December 31, 1995 balances.  The primary factors  for  the
increase  were positive net cash flow of $6.5 million for net  earnings,
which  reflects  earnings after depreciation and  amortization  of  $3.5
million,  the issuance of Common Stock of $6.0 million, and an  increase
in   short-term  borrowings  of  $1.6  million,  partially   offset   by
restructuring  payments of $7.0 million, capital  expenditures  of  $4.5
million,  and a foreign currency transaction gain of $1.2 million.   The
AmeriData  Divestitures,  through the elimination  of  certain  hardware
distribution activities, significantly reduced the Company's  investment
in  inventory  and the associated risk of obsolescence  associated  with
that inventory.

   Stockholders'  equity  increased by $13.3 million in  the  first  six
months  of 1996.  The increase is primarily due to net earnings of  $6.5
million, the issuance of Common Stock and treasury stock of $6.0 million
and  $1.4  million, respectively, offset in part by a  foreign  currency
translation adjustment of $0.7 million.

   As of June 30, 1996, the Company has available up to $16.1 million in
credit facilities in certain international subsidiaries (primarily short-
term notes and overdraft facilities under bank lines of credit), as well
as  a domestic credit arrangement which provides up to $10.0 million  in
unsecured short-term credit.

   The  Company  has $15.1 million of restructure obligations as of June
30,  1996, $8.7 million of which are expected to be cash outlays for the
remainder  of  1996,  primarily for severance  costs,  lease  and  other
obligations   related  to  excess  facilities,  and  litigation   costs.
Restructuring  payments will extend into 1997 to satisfy  various  long-
term real estate obligations and severance issues.  The Company believes
that  it  can  finance this cash requirement through  a  combination  of
existing cash reserves, cash flow from operations, asset sales, and  its
borrowing  capacity.   To the extent it may be necessary  to  supplement
these  sources of cash, the Company could seek financing from  strategic
investors  and through future debt or equity financing in the public  or
private markets.  The ability of the Company to borrow money or to  sell
debt  or  equity  securities will depend on its results  of  operations,
financial condition, and business prospects, as well as conditions  then
prevailing in the computer industry and the relevant capital markets.

   Except   for   the   historical  information  contained  within   the
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and  Results
of  Operations, the accompanying consolidated financial statements,  and
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the matters reflected in
this  quarterly report as expectations, plans, future estimates and  the
like are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties
including:  business  conditions and growth in the general  economy  and
electronic  messaging  market;  volatility  in  gross  margins  as   the
Company's  revenues  and  product mix change;  additional  restructuring
actions  or  charges as the Company continues to evolve in  its  rapidly
changing  industry; competitive factors, such as alternative  messaging,
PDM  and  CAD  products  and price pressures;  availability  of  skilled
personnel in various geographic areas; acceptance of the outsourcing  of
corporate  messaging  infrastructures;  the  success  of  the  Company's
business  partners in sales and marketing activities; and other  factors
discussed herein.

   The  following  tables represent  pro forma results  for  the  second
quarter  and first six months of 1996 and 1995.  The 1995 second quarter
and  first six months pro forma results are based on the elimination  of
certain international operations, sold to AmeriData, located in Austria,
Canada,  Greece, Mexico, Norway, Portugal, and United Kingdom,  and  for
the  period  following February 28, 1995, Denmark.   The  business  type
information is presented based on the 1996 organization structure of the
Company.   Certain  1995 revenues and costs have  been  reclassified  to
conform to the 1996 structure (unaudited).

         the  grant  of  each  Award shall be separately  approved  by  the
         Committee;  and, provided further, that the receipt  of  one  such
         Award  shall  not  result in the automatic receipt  of  any  other
         Award.   Upon determination by the Committee that an Award  is  to
         be  granted to a participant, an Award Agreement shall be executed
         by  the Corporation and by such Participant, specifying the terms,
         conditions, rights and duties related thereto.

5.02     Outside  Directors.   Outside  Directors  shall  be  eligible   to

         respect to such eligibility.


                   ARTICLE VI - INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS


6.01     Grant  of  Incentive  Stock  Options.   In  accordance  with   the
         provisions  of  the  Plan, the Committee shall approve,  following
         recommendation   by   management  of  the   Corporation   or   its
         Subsidiaries,  the  Eligible Employees  to  whom  Incentive  Stock
         Options  shall  be  granted.  The Committee  shall  determine  the
         number  of  shares to be subject to each Incentive  Stock  Option,
         the  time  at  which  such Option shall be granted,  whether  such
         Option  shall  be  granted in exchange for  the  cancellation  and
         termination  of a previously granted Incentive Stock Option  under
         the  Plan  or  otherwise, the extent to which an  Incentive  Stock
         Option  may  be exercisable upon the Participant's termination  of
         employment,  which may differ depending upon the reason  for  such
         termination, the manner in which an Incentive Stock Option may  be
         exercised and the form of the Award Agreement that shall  evidence
         each  Incentive  Stock Option.   Except as otherwise  provided  in
         this   Article  VI,  the  Committee  shall  determine  the  terms,
         conditions  and  other provisions of each Award  Agreement,  which
         may  vary  from Participant to Participant and which  may  contain
         such  limitations and restrictions as shall be necessary to ensure
         that  such Option will be considered an Incentive Stock Option  as
         defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 422 or to conform to  any
         change  therein.   Each  Participant shall  enter  into  an  Award
         Agreement with the Corporation with respect to the grant  of  each
         Incentive Stock Option.

6.02     Option Price.  To the extent required to qualify the Option as  an
         Incentive  Stock Option under Internal Revenue Code  Section  422,
         the  option  price  per share shall not be less than  one  hundred
         percent  (100%) of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock  as
         of  the  Date  of Grant except that, if a Participant  owns  stock
         possessing  more  than  ten percent (10%) of  the  total  combined
         voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation or its

                                    9

<PAGE>

         Affiliate, the option price per share shall not be less  than  one
         hundred  ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of one  share
         of Stock as of the Date of Grant.


6.03     Duration and Exercise of Options.

                        (a)   Duration  of  Incentive Stock  Options.   The
                   period  during  which an Incentive Stock Option  granted
                   under the Plan may be exercised shall be established  by
                   the  Committee,  and  shall be set forth  in  the  Award
                   Agreement,  but  in no event shall any  Incentive  Stock
                   Option  be  exercisable during a term of more  than  ten
                   (10)  years after the Date of Grant; provided,  however,
                   that  if  a Participant owns stock possessing more  than
                   ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power  of
                   all   classes  of  stock  of  the  Corporation  or   its
                   Affiliate,   the   Incentive  Stock  Option   shall   be
                   exercisable  during a period of not more than  five  (5)
                   years after the Date of Grant.

                  (b)  Exercisability of Incentive Stock Options.

                                   (1)  The Committee shall have discretion
                        to   determine  when  an  Incentive  Stock   Option
                        becomes  exercisable  and  may  provide  that   the
                        Incentive Stock Option shall become exercisable  in
                        installments.    If   the  Participant   does   not
                        purchase  in  any  year the full number  of  shares
                        which  the  Participant is entitled to purchase  in
                        that year, the Participant may, if provided in  the
                        Award  Agreement, purchase in any  subsequent  year
                        such  previously unpurchased shares in addition  to
                        those  that  the Participant is otherwise  entitled
                        to purchase.

                                   (2)   In  the  event an Incentive  Stock
                        Option  is immediately exercisable at the  Date  of
                        Grant, the manner of exercising such Option in  the
                        event  it  is  not  exercised in  full  immediately
                        shall be specified in the Award Agreement.

                                   (3)   The  Committee may accelerate  the
                        exercise  date of any Incentive Stock Option  which
                        is  not  immediately exercisable  at  the  Date  of
                        Grant  as  the Committee, in its discretion,  deems
                        advisable.

<PAGE>

                                   (4)  The Award Agreement shall set forth
                        all  provisions  relating to the exercisability  of
                        Incentive Stock Options.

6.04     Payment  of  Option  Price.  Upon the exercise  of  any  Incentive
         Stock  Option  granted pursuant to this Plan, the  purchase  price
         for  such shares of Stock subject to such Option shall be paid  in
         cash  unless the Committee, in its sole discretion and subject  to
         any  applicable  rules or regulations it may  adopt,  allows  such
         payment to be made, in whole or in part, by the transfer from  the
         Participant  to the Corporation of previously acquired  shares  of
         Stock.   Any  Stock so transferred shall be valued at Fair  Market
         Value  on the day immediately preceding the effective exercise  of
         the  Incentive  Stock Option.  For purposes of this Section  6.04,
         "previously  acquired  shares of Stock" shall  include  shares  of
         Stock  that  are already owned by the Participant at the  time  of
         exercise.

         In  addition  to  the foregoing, with respect to  Incentive  Stock
         Options granted pursuant to this Plan after January 31, 1996,  the
         Committee  may,  in  its  sole  discretion  and  subject  to   any
         applicable  rules or regulations it may adopt, allow such  payment
         to  be made, in whole or in part, in installments or by having the
         Participant  execute a promissory note containing  such  terms  as
         the Committee may deem appropriate.

6.05     Rights as a Shareholder.  The Participant shall have no rights  as
         a  shareholder with respect to any shares of Stock subject  to  an
         Incentive  Stock Option until the Participant becomes  the  holder
         of  record of such shares.  Except as provided in Section 4.03, no
         adjustments   shall   be  made  for  dividends   or   other   cash
         distributions  or  for  other  rights  that  have  a  record  date
         preceding  the date the Participant becomes the holder  of  record
         of such shares of Stock.


                 ARTICLE VII - NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS


7.01     Grant  of  Nonqualified  Stock Options.  In  accordance  with  the
         provisions  of  the  Plan, the Committee shall approve,  following
         recommendation   by   management  of  the   Corporation   or   its
         Subsidiaries,  the  Eligible Employees to whom Nonqualified  Stock
         Options  shall  be granted under this Article VII.  The  Committee
         shall  determine  the  number of shares  to  be  subject  to  each
         Nonqualified Stock Option, the time at which such Option shall  be
         granted, whether such Option shall be granted in exchange for  the
         cancellation  and termination of a previously granted Nonqualified
         Stock  Option under the Plan or otherwise, the extent to  which  a
         Nonqualified   Stock   Option  may   be   exercisable   upon   the
         Participant's termination of employment, which may

                                   11

<PAGE>

         differ  depending upon the reason for such termination, the manner
         in  which  a  Nonqualified Stock Option may be exercised  and  the
         form  of the Award Agreement that shall evidence each Nonqualified
         Stock Option.   Except as otherwise provided in this Article  VII,
         the  Committee  shall  determine the terms, conditions  and  other
         provisions   of  each  Award  Agreement,  which  may   vary   from
         Participant to Participant. Each Participant shall enter  into  an
         Award Agreement with the Corporation with respect to the grant  of
         each Nonqualified Stock Option.

7.02     Option  Price.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,  the
         option  price per share shall not be less than one hundred percent
         (100%)  of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock as  of  the
         Date of Grant.

7.03     Duration and Exercise of Options.

                   (a)  Duration of Nonqualified Stock Options.  The period
              during  which a Nonqualified Stock Option granted  under  the
              Plan  may be exercised shall be established by the Committee,
              and  shall  be set forth in the Award Agreement,  but  in  no
              event  shall  any  Nonqualified Stock Option  be  exercisable
              during  a term of more than ten (10) years after the Date  of
              Grant.

                  (b)  Exercisability of Nonqualified Stock Options.

                                   (1)  The Committee shall have discretion
                        to  determine  when  a  Nonqualified  Stock  Option
                        becomes  exercisable  and  may  provide  that   the
                        Nonqualified Stock Option shall become  exercisable
                        in  installments.   If  the  Participant  does  not
                        purchase  in  any  year the full number  of  shares
                        which  the  Participant is entitled to purchase  in
                        that year, the Participant may, if provided in  the
                        Award  Agreement, purchase in any  subsequent  year
                        such  previously unpurchased shares in addition  to
                        those  that  the Participant is otherwise  entitled
                        to purchase.

                                   (2)   In the event an Nonqualified Stock
                        Option  is immediately exercisable at the  Date  of
                        Grant, the manner of exercising such Option in  the
                        event  it  is  not  exercised in  full  immediately
                        shall be specified in the Award Agreement.

                                   (3)   The  Committee may accelerate  the
                        exercise  date  of  any Nonqualified  Stock  Option
                        which is not immediately

                                   12

<PAGE>

                        exercisable at the Date of Grant as the  Committee,
                        in its discretion, deems advisable.

                                   (4)  The Award Agreement shall set forth
                        all  provisions  relating to the exercisability  of
                        Nonqualified Stock Options.


7.04     Payment  of  Option Price.  Upon the exercise of any  Nonqualified
         Stock  Option  granted pursuant to this Plan, the  purchase  price
         for  such shares of Stock subject to such Option shall be paid  in
         cash  unless the Committee, in its sole discretion and subject  to
         any  applicable  rules or regulations it may  adopt,  allows  such
         payment to be made, in whole or in part, by the transfer from  the
         Participant  to the Corporation of previously acquired  shares  of
         Stock.   Any  Stock so transferred shall be valued at Fair  Market
         Value  on the day immediately preceding the effective exercise  of
         the  Nonqualified  Stock  Option.  For purposes  of  this  Section
         7.04,  "previously acquired shares of Stock" shall include  shares
         of  Stock that are already owned by the Participant at the time of
         exercise.

         In  addition  to the foregoing, for any Nonqualified Stock  Option
         granted  pursuant  to this Plan, the Committee may,  in  its  sole
         discretion  and subject to any applicable rules or regulations  it
         may adopt, allow such payment to be made, in whole or in part,  in
         installments  or  by having the Participant execute  a  promissory
         note containing such terms as the Committee may deem appropriate.

7.05     Rights as a Shareholder.  The Participant shall have no rights  as
         a  shareholder with respect to any shares of Stock  subject  to  a
         Nonqualified  Option until the Participant becomes the  holder  of
         record  of  such shares.  Except as provided in Section  4.03,  no
         adjustments   shall   be  made  for  dividends   or   other   cash
         distributions  or  for  other  rights  that  have  a  record  date
         preceding  the date the Participant becomes the holder  of  record
         of such shares of Stock.

                   the   Outside  Directors  that  shall  be  eligible  for
                   Nonqualified  Stock Options or to determine  the  number

                   Nonqualified   Stock  Option  to  purchase   twenty-five
                   thousand (25,000) shares of Stock on the Date of  Grant.
                   For  purposes of this Section 8.01(b), the Date of Grant
                   shall  be the later of (i) the date that is thirty  (30)

                   the  Outside  Director  first  becomes  elected  to  the
                   Board.

                        (c)   Beginning with the 1994 annual  stockholders'
                   meeting    and   each   annual   stockholders'   meeting
                   thereafter,  each Outside Director shall,  upon  his  or
                   her  reelection  to  the Board, receive  a  Nonqualified
                   Stock  Option  to purchase five thousand (5,000)  shares

                   Options  on  each of the three succeeding  anniversaries
                   of  the Date of Grant.  If the Outside Director does not
                   purchase  in  any year the full number of  shares  which
                   the  Outside  Director is entitled to purchase  in  that
                   year,   the  Outside  Director  shall  be  entitled   to
                   purchase   in   any  subsequent  year  such   previously
                   unpurchased  shares  in addition  to  those  shares  the
                   Outside Director is otherwise entitled to purchase.

         Plan  and subject to such other administrative rules as the  Board
         may  deem  advisable, by delivering to the office of the Treasurer
         of  the  Corporation written notice of the number of whole  shares
         with  respect  to  which the Nonqualified Stock  Option  is  being
         exercised  and  by paying the purchase price for  such  shares  in
         full.   The  exercise of the Nonqualified Stock  Option  shall  be
         deemed  effective upon receipt of such notice by the Corporation's
         Treasurer (or such individual as the Treasurer shall designate  in
         writing)  and  upon payment that complies with the terms  of  this
         Plan.  As soon as practicable after the effective exercise of  the
         Nonqualified Stock Option, the Outside Director shall be  recorded
         on  the  stock transfer books of the Corporation as the  owner  of
         the  shares  purchased and the Corporation shall  deliver  to  the
         Outside  Director  one  or  more duly  issued  stock  certificates
         evidencing such ownership.

8.05     Payment  of  Option Price.  Upon the exercise of any  Nonqualified
         Stock  Option  granted  to an Outside Director  pursuant  to  this
         Article  VIII, the purchase price for such shares of Stock subject
         to  such  Option shall be paid in cash unless the  Board,  in  its
         sole   discretion   and  subject  to  any  applicable   rules   or
         regulations  it  may adopt, allows such payment  to  be  made,  in
         whole  or  in  part, by the transfer from the Outside Director  to
         the  Corporation  of  previously acquired shares  of  Stock.   Any
         Stock  so transferred shall be valued at Fair Market Value on  the
         day   immediately   preceding  the  effective  exercise   of   the
         Nonqualified  Stock  Option.  For purposes of this  Section  8.05,
         "previously  acquired  shares of Stock" shall  include  shares  of
         Stock  that are already owned by the Outside Director at the  time
         of exercise.

         In  addition  to the foregoing, for any Nonqualified Stock  Option
         granted pursuant to this Article VIII, the Board may, in its  sole
         discretion  and subject to any applicable rules or regulations  it
         may adopt, allow such payment to be made, in whole or in part,  in
         installments  or  by having the Participant execute  a  promissory
         note containing such terms as the Board may deem appropriate.

8.06     Rights  as  a  Shareholder.  The Outside Director  shall  have  no
         rights  as  a  shareholder with respect to  any  shares  of  Stock
         subject  to a Nonqualified Stock Option until the Outside Director
         becomes  the holder of record of such shares.  Except as  provided
         in  Section  4.03, no adjustments shall be made for  dividends  or
         other  cash distributions or for other rights that have  a  record
         date  preceding the date the Outside Director becomes  the  holder
         of record of such shares of Stock.

8.07     Compliance  with  Rule  16b-3.   All  Nonqualified  Stock  Options
         granted  to  Outside  Directors must comply  with  the  applicable
         provisions of Rule 16b-3, or any successor provision, as  then  in
         effect, of the General Rules and

                                   15

<PAGE>

         Regulations  of  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,  as  amended
         from time to time.

8.08     Termination  of  Status  as a Director.   In  the  event  that  an
         Outside  Director's  membership  on  the  Board  terminates,   the
         following provisions shall apply:

                        (a)   If the Outside Director's membership  on  the
                   Board  terminates  because of  death,  any  Nonqualified
                   Stock  Option  granted  to such Outside  Director  shall
                   become  immediately  exercisable  in  full  and  may  be
                   exercised  by  the Outside Director's  estate  or  by  a
                   person  who  acquired the right to exercise such  Option
                   by  bequest  or  inheritance for the  duration  of  such
                   Option.

                        (b)   If the Outside Director's membership  on  the
                   Board  terminates  because of  disability,  the  Outside
                   Director  shall be entitled to exercise any Nonqualified
                   Stock  Option to the extent such Option was  exercisable
                   as  of  the  date such Outside Director's membership  on
                   the  Board is terminated by reason of disability  for  a
                   period of twelve (12) months following the date of  such
                   termination  unless such Option, by its  terms,  expires
                   before  the  end  of such twelve-month period.   To  the
                   extent  that such Option was not exercisable as  of  the
                   date  the  Outside Director's membership  on  the  Board
                   terminates  because of disability,  or  if  the  Outside
                   Director  does  not  exercise  the  Nonqualified   Stock
                   Option within the twelve-month period specified in  this
                   Section  8.08(b),  all  rights of the  Outside  Director
                   under  such Option shall be forfeited.  For purposes  of
                   this  Section 8.08(b), "disability" shall mean a  mental
                   or   physical   condition  of  the   Outside   Director,
                   resulting  from  illness, injury or  disease  which,  as
                   determined by the Board, causes the Outside Director  to
                   resign from the Board and is reasonably expected  to  be
                   of long and indefinite duration or result in death.

                        (c)   If the Outside Director's membership  on  the
                   Board  terminates for any reason other than the  Outside
                   Director's  death  or disability, the  Outside  Director
                   shall  be  entitled  to exercise any Nonqualified  Stock
                   Option to the extent such Option was exercisable  as  of
                   the  date  of  such termination for a period  of  ninety
                   (90)  days following the date of such termination unless
                   such  Option, by its terms, expires before  the  end  of
                   such   ninety-day  period.   To  the  extent  that   the
                   Nonqualified Stock Option is not exercisable as  of  the
                   date  the  Outside Director's membership  on  the  Board
                   terminates   for  any  reason  other   than   death   or
                   disability,  or  if  the  Outside  Director   does   not
                   exercise such

                                   16

<PAGE>

                   Option   within  the  time  specified  in  this  Section
                   8.08(c),  all rights of the Outside Director under  such
                   Option shall be forfeited.

8.09     Investment   Purpose.   The  Corporation  shall  require,   as   a
         condition  to  the  grant and exercise of any  Nonqualified  Stock
         Option  pursuant  to  this Article VIII, that any  Stock  acquired
         pursuant to such Nonqualified Stock Option shall be acquired  only
         for  investment if, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation,
         such  condition  is required or deemed advisable under  securities
         laws  or  any  other applicable law, regulation  or  rule  of  any
         government  or governmental agency.  In this regard, if  requested
         by   the   Corporation,  the  Outside  Director,  prior   to   the
         acquisition  of  any shares of Stock pursuant to any  Nonqualified
         Stock  Option,  shall execute an investment letter to  the  effect
         that  the  Outside Director is acquiring shares of Stock  pursuant
         to  such  Option  for investment purposes only and  not  with  the
         intention of making any distribution of such shares and  will  not
         dispose  of the shares in violation of the applicable federal  and
         state securities laws.


                   ARTICLE IX - RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS


9.01     Grant   of  Restricted  Stock  Awards.  In  accordance  with   the
         provisions  of  the  Plan, the Committee shall approve,  following
         recommendation   by   management  of  the   Corporation   or   its
         Subsidiaries,  the  Eligible Employees to  whom  Restricted  Stock
         Awards  shall be granted, shall determine the number of shares  to
         be  subject to each Restricted Stock Award, the time at which  the
         Restricted  Stock  Award is to be granted,  the  manner  in  which
         restrictions   on   the  transferability  of   shares   of   Stock
         represented  by  the Restricted Stock Award will  lapse  including
         the   extent  to  which  such  restrictions  may  lapse  upon  the
         Participant's   termination  of  employment,  which   may   differ
         depending  upon  the reason for such termination, subject  to  the
         provisions  of  Section  9.03, and such other  provisions  of  the
         Restricted  Stock  Award as the Committee may  deem  necessary  or
         desirable.  The  Committee  shall  determine  the  form  of  Award
         Agreement  that  shall evidence each Restricted  Stock  Award  and
         shall  determine  the  terms, conditions and other  provisions  of
         each   Award  Agreement,  which  may  vary  from  Participant   to
         Participant.    Each  participant  shall  enter  into   an   Award
         Agreement with the Corporation with respect to the grant  of  each
         Restricted Stock Award.

9.02     Restrictions  on  Transfer.  The shares of Stock awarded  pursuant
         to  a  Restricted  Stock Award shall be subject to  the  following
         restrictions:

                         (a)    No  such  share  of  Stock  may  be   sold,
                   transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered or  otherwise
                   alienated or hypothecated

                                   17

<PAGE>

                   unless   and   only   to  the  extent that  restrictions
                   shall  have lapsed in accordance with the Plan  and  the
                   Award Agreement.

                        (b)   Upon  the grant of a Restricted Stock  Award,
                   the   Corporation  shall  cause  to  be   issued   stock
                   certificates  representing the shares  subject  to  such
                   Restricted Stock Award in the Participant's  name.   The
                   Corporation  shall  hold such stock  certificates  until
                   the  restrictions  set  forth in  Sections  9.02(a)  and
                   9.02(b) lapse in accordance with the Plan and the  Award
                   Agreement.   Once  the  restrictions  have  lapsed  with
                   respect  to  all  or part of the shares subject  to  the
                   Restricted  Stock  Award, such stock certificates  shall
                   be distributed to the Participant.

                        (c)   Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  Section
                   9.02(c),  and subject to any terms, conditions or  other
                   restrictions  set  forth  in  the  Award  Agreement,   a
                   Participant  receiving a Restricted Stock  Award  shall,
                   as  of  the  Date of Grant, have the right to vote  such
                   shares  of  Stock  and  to receive dividends  and  other
                   distributions made with respect to such shares, but  the
                   Participant  shall not, unless otherwise  determined  by
                   the  Committee, have any other rights as a  shareholder.
                   The  terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the
                   Award  Agreement  shall  also apply  to  any  additional
                   shares  of Stock received by a Participant as the result
                   of  any dividend paid on the shares of Stock subject  to
                   the  Restricted  Stock Award or as  the  result  of  any
                   stock  split,  stock  distribution  or  combination   of
                   shares  that affects the shares of Stock subject to  the
                   Restricted Stock Award.

9.03     Lapsing  of Restrictions.  The Committee shall have the discretion
         to  determine  the times and extent to which restrictions  on  the
         transferability of shares under each Restricted Stock Award  shall
         lapse,  and  the  Award Agreement shall set forth  all  provisions
         relating to the lapsing of such restrictions.

9.04     Modification of Lapsing Schedule.  The Committee may, in its  sole
         discretion,   modify   the   rate   at   which   restrictions   on
         transferability  of shares under a Restricted  Stock  Award  shall
         lapse.  Any such modification shall apply only to those shares  of
         Stock  which  are  restricted as of  the  effective  date  of  the
         modification,  and shall be reflected in a resolution  adopted  by
         the  Committee and, if deemed appropriate by the Committee, in  an
         amendment  to  any  Award  Agreement  with  respect  to  which  it
         applies.

                      ARTICLE X - PERFORMANCE UNITS


10.01    Grant  of Performance Units. In accordance with the provisions  of
         the  Plan,  the  Committee shall approve, following recommendation
         by  the  management  of  the Corporation or  its  Subsidiary,  the
         Eligible  Employees  to  whom Performance  Unit  Awards  shall  be
         granted,  and shall determine the number of Performance  Units  to
         be  subject to each Performance Unit Award, the time at which such
         Performance  Unit  Award shall be granted,  the  extent  to  which
         Performance  Units may vest upon the Participant's termination  of
         employment,  which may differ depending upon the reason  for  such
         termination,  and  such other provisions of the  Performance  Unit
         Award  as  the  Committee  may deem necessary  or  desirable.  The
         Committee  shall determine the form of Award Agreement that  shall
         evidence  each  Performance Unit Award  and  shall  determine  the
         terms,  conditions and other provisions of each  Award  Agreement,
         which  may vary from Participant to Participant.  Each Participant
         shall  enter  into  an Award Agreement with the  Corporation  with
         respect to the grant of each Performance Unit Award.

10.02    Vesting   of  Performance  Units.  Each  Performance  Unit   Award
         Agreement shall set forth:

                        (a)   The Performance Period over which Performance
                   Units may vest;

                        (b)   The initial and cumulative Performance  Goals
                   which  must be satisfied prior to vesting of any portion
                   of  the Performance Units represented by the Performance
                   Unit   Award.   Unless  otherwise  determined   by   the
                   Committee,  such  Performance  Unit  goals  shall,   for
                   purposes of valuing each Performance Unit under  Section
                   10.03,   include   threshold,   target,   superior   and
                   exceptional levels.

                        (c)   The  vesting  schedule with  respect  to  the
                   Performance  Units,  which, unless otherwise  determined
                   by the Committee, shall be as follows:

                                   (i)   Upon  the completion of the  first
                        full  calendar year of the Performance  Period  and
                        the    attainment   of   the   initial    threshold
                        Performance Goal, twenty-five percent (25%) of  the
                        total  number  of Performance Units comprising  the
                        Participant's  Performance Unit  Award  shall  vest
                        and  become  immediately payable to the Participant
                        in  accordance  with Sections 10.03 and  10.04.  In
                        the event

<PAGE>

                                        such  initial Performance  Goal  is
                        not  satisfied, such percentage of the  Performance
                        Units   awarded   to  the  Participant   shall   be
                        immediately  forfeited  and  shall  no  longer   be
                        eligible   for   vesting   and   payment   to   the
                        Participant.

                                   (ii) Upon completion of the second  full
                        calendar  year  of the Performance Period  and  the
                        attainment  of the cumulative threshold Performance
                        Goal  for that two-year period, twenty-five percent
                        (25%)  of  the  total number of  Performance  Units
                        comprising   the  Participant's  Performance   Unit
                        Award shall vest and become immediately payable  to
                        the  Participant in accordance with Sections  10.03
                        and   10.04.   In   the   event   such   cumulative
                        Performance Goal is not satisfied, such  percentage
                        of  Performance  Units awarded to  the  Participant
                        shall  be immediately forfeited and shall no longer
                        be   eligible  for  vesting  and  payment  to   the
                        Participant.

                                   (iii)      Upon completion of the  third
                        full  calendar year of the Performance  Period  and
                        the   attainment   of   the  cumulative   threshold
                        Performance Goal for that three-year period,  fifty
                        percent  (50%)  of the total number of  Performance
                        Units   comprising  the  Participant's  Performance
                        Unit   Award  shall  vest  and  become  immediately
                        payable  to  the  Participant  in  accordance  with
                        Sections  10.03  and  10.04.  In  the  event   such

                        Subsidiary;  provided, however, that  for  purposes
                        of  this clause (ii), an act or failure to  act  by

                                   (3)    A  requirement  imposed  by   the
                        Corporation  or  its Subsidiary on the  Participant

                   successor provision, of the Securities Exchange  Act  of
                   1934  and  the  General  Rules  and  Regulations  issued
                   thereunder, include the establishment of or increase  in
                   a  call  equivalent  position or the liquidation  of  or
                   decrease  in a put equivalent position with  respect  to
                   such Stock.

                        (d)    To  the  extent a Participant has  not  sold
                   shares  of Stock to the Corporation pursuant to  Section
                   11.02(c),  certificates for such shares of  Stock,  with
                   no  restrictive  language, shall  be  delivered  to  the
                   Participant  within thirty-five (35) days following  the
                   Change of Control Termination.

11.03    Limitation  on  Change of Control Compensation.  A Participant  or
         Outside  Director shall not be entitled to receive any  Change  of
         Control  Action  which would, with respect to the  Participant  or
         Outside  Director, constitute a "parachute payment"  for  purposes
         of  Internal Revenue Code Section 280G. In the event any Change of
         Control  Action would, with respect to the Participant or  Outside
         Director,  constitute a "parachute payment,"  the  Participant  or
         Outside  Director shall have the right to designate  those  Change
         of  Control Action(s) which would be reduced or eliminated so that
         the  Participant or Outside Director will not receive a "parachute
         payment."

11.04    Limitations  on  Committee's  and Board's  Actions.   Prior  to  a
         Change  of Control, Participants and Outside Directors shall  have
         no  rights  under this Article XI, and the Board  shall  have  the
         power  and  right,  within its sole discretion,  by  a  resolution
         adopted  by  a  two-thirds (2/3) majority to  rescind,  modify  or
         amend this Article XI without the consent of any Participant or

                                   25

<PAGE>

         Outside  Director.   In all other cases, and  notwithstanding  the
         authority   granted  to  the  Committee  or  Board   to   exercise
         discretion    in   interpreting,   administering,   amending    or
         terminating this Plan, neither the Committee nor the Board  shall,
         following  a  Change of Control, have the power to  exercise  such
         authority or otherwise take any action which is inconsistent  with
         the provisions of this Article XI.

         Notwithstanding anything in this Article XI to the  contrary,  the
         Board  may  restrict the rights of, or the applicability  of  this
         Article XI to, Section 16(b) Participants or Outside Directors  to
         the  extent  necessary to comply with the requirements of  Section
         16(b), or any successor provision, of the Securities Exchange  Act
         of 1934, as amended.


       ARTICLE XII - RIGHTS OF ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES AND PARTICIPANTS


12.01    Relationship  to Employment.  Nothing contained in the  Plan,  nor
         in  any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, shall confer upon  any
         Participant  any right with respect to continuance  of  employment
         by  the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, nor interfere in any  way
         with  the  right  of  the  Corporation  or  its  Subsidiaries   to
         terminate the Participant's employment at any time.

12.02    Nontransferability   of  Award.   No  Incentive   Stock   Options,
         Restricted   Stock   Awards   or  Performance   Units   shall   be
         transferable,  in  whole  or in part, by the  Participant,  either
         voluntarily  or  involuntarily, except by  will  or  the  laws  of
         descent  or distribution.  If the Participant attempts to transfer
         an  Incentive Stock Option, Restricted Stock Award or  Performance
         Unit,  or any portion of such Option, Award or Unit, such transfer
         shall  be  void  and the Incentive Stock Option, Restricted  Stock
         Award  or  Performance Unit shall terminate.  An  Incentive  Stock
         Option  shall  be  exercisable during the  Participant's  lifetime
         only  by  the  Participant  or by such Participant's  guardian  or
         other legal representative.

         Subject  to  the  approval of the Committee, or, in  the  case  of
         Outside   Directors,  subject  to  the  approval  of  the   Board,
         Nonqualified  Stock  Options  granted  under  the  Plan   may   be
         transferred,  for  no  consideration, by the  Participant  or  the
         Outside  Director to a member of the Participant's or the  Outside
         Director's  immediate family, to a trust for the benefit  of  such
         family  members  or to a partnership in which such family  members
         are  the  only partners.  The family member to whom, or the  trust
         or  partnership  to which, a Nonqualified Stock  Option  has  been
         transferred  shall not be permitted to subsequently  transfer  the
         Option,  either voluntarily or involuntarily, unless such transfer
         is  to another family member, trust or partnership which meets the
         requirements of this

                                   26

<PAGE>

         Section  12.02.  No other transfers of Nonqualified Stock Options,
         in  whole  or in part, by the Participant or the Outside  Director
         shall  be permitted, voluntarily or involuntarily, except by  will
         or  the  laws of descent and distribution.  If the Participant  or
         Outside  Director  attempts  to  transfer  a  Nonqualified   Stock
         Option,  or any portion of such Option, in a manner not  permitted
         by  this  Section  12.02, such transfer  shall  be  void  and  the
         Nonqualified Stock Option shall terminate.

         Notwithstanding  anything in this Section 12.02 to  the  contrary,
         the   Board  may  prohibit  Outside  Directors  from  transferring
         Nonqualified  Stock Options granted under the Plan to  the  family
         members,  trusts  or  partnerships described above  if  the  Board
         determines  that prohibiting such transfers is necessary  for  the
         Outside  Director  to be a "disinterested person"  as  defined  in
         Rule 16b-3, or any successor provision, as then in effect, of  the
         General  Rules and Regulations under the Securities  Exchange  Act
         of  1934, as amended, or to otherwise comply with the requirements
         of  Section  16(b), or any successor provision, of the  Securities
         Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.



                 ARTICLE XIII - AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION


13.01    Authority  to  Amend and Procedure.  Subject to the provisions  of
         Article  XI and Section 13.02, the Board or the Committee may,  at
         any   time  and  without  further  action  on  the  part  of   the
         shareholders of the Corporation, terminate this Plan or make  such
         amendments  thereto  as  it  deems  advisable  and  in  the   best
         interests  of  the  Corporation  or  its  Subsidiaries;  provided,
         however, that no such termination or amendment shall, without  the
         consent  of a Participant, materially adversely affect  or  impair
         the  right  of  a  Participant with respect to  an  Award  already
         granted;  and  provided, further, that unless the shareholders  of
         the  Corporation shall have approved the same, no amendment shall,
         either directly or indirectly:

                        (a)    Materially  increase  the  total  number  of
                   shares  of Stock that may be awarded under this Plan  to
                   all  Participants  and  Outside  Directors,  except  for
                   adjustments described in Section 4.03 of this Plan;

                        (b)   Materially increase the benefits accruing  to
                   Participants and Outside Directors under the Plan; or

                        (c)    Materially  modify the  requirements  as  to
                   eligibility for participation in the Plan.

                                   27

         either  directly  or indirectly, amend the provisions  of  Article
         VIII  relating to Nonqualified Stock Options that are  granted  to
         Outside  Directors more frequently than once every six (6) months,
         unless  such amendment is required to comply with changes  in  the
         Employee  Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended,  and
         the  regulations thereunder, or the Internal Revenue Code and  the
         regulations thereunder.


            ARTICLE XIV - EFFECTIVE DATE AND DURATION OF PLAN


14.01    Effective  Date of Plan.  The Plan shall be deemed effective  upon
         its  adoption by the Board.  Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified

         the Board.

14.02    Duration  of  the Plan.  The Plan shall terminate at  midnight  on

         outstanding  under  the Plan at that date, and no  further  Awards
         shall  be  granted  thereafter.  The  Plan  may  be  abandoned  or
         terminated  at  any  earlier time by the Board or  the  Committee,

         Plan.


                     ARTICLE XV - GENERAL PROVISIONS

         Sections  and  their subparts within the Plan are for  convenience
         only  and  are  not  meant to be of substantive significance,  and

         unconditionally   assume   all  of  the   Corporation's   or   the
         Subsidiary's obligations hereunder; provided,

<PAGE>

         however,  that this Section 15.03 shall not apply with respect  to

         contributed  or in any other manner transferred or for  any  other
         reason ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Corporation.

15.04    Survival   of   Provisions.   The  rights,  remedies,  agreements,
         obligations  and  covenants of the parties contained  in  or  made

         Committee,  or  by  any  officer,  agent,  or  employee   of   the
         Corporation  or  its Subsidiaries, nor shall  any  member  of  the
         Board   or  the  Committee  be  liable,  except  in  circumstances
         involving  such  member's  own bad faith,  for  anything  done  or

                        (a)    Withhold and deduct from future wages  of  a

                   Subsidiary),   or  make  other  arrangements   for   the
                   collection  of,  all legally required amounts  necessary

                   withholding   and  employment-related  tax  requirements
                   attributable   to  the  Participant's  exercise   of   a
                   Nonqualified Stock Option or attributable to  the  lapse
                   of   restrictions  on  a  Restricted  Stock   Award   or
                   otherwise  incurred with respect to any other provisions
