as grantor (hereinafter referred to as the "Grantor"), and ALAN S. GOTTLICH,
having an address at 146 English Street, Fort Lee, New Jersey 07024, and SAUL
FEIGER, having an address at 152-18 Union Turnpike, Kew Gardens Hills, New York
11367, as trustees (collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Trustees").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Grantor's wife is JUNE LOCCISANO, and the Grantor
has two children, MICHAEL LOCCISANO and MARISSA LOCCISANO; and
WHEREAS, the Grantor desires to create an irrevocable trust of
the property described in Exhibit A hereto, together with such monies,
securities and other assets as the Trustees hereafter may hold or acquire
hereunder (said property, monies, securities and other assets, together with any
additions thereto received pursuant to the Grantor's last will and testament or
as the proceeds of insurance on the Grantor's life, or as death benefits or
otherwise, being hereinafter referred to as the "trust estate"), for the
purposes and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants herein
contained and other valuable consideration, the receipt and suffi-
1
<PAGE>
ciency of which hereby is acknowledged, the Grantor hereby irrevocably
transfers, conveys, assigns and delivers to the Trustees as and for the trust
estate the property more particularly described in Exhibit A hereto, to hold the
same, and any other property which the Trustees hereafter may acquire, IN TRUST,
for the purposes and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth:
ARTICLE FIRST
Beneficiaries 0f Trust
The Trustees shall pay the entire net income of this Trust, in
such periodic installments as the Trustees shall find convenient, but at least
as often as quarter-annually, to Grantor's son, MICHAEL LOCCISANO. In addition,
the Trustees may pay to or for the benefit of said child, for his health,
education, maintenance or support, any part or all of the principal of this
trust, in such amounts and proportions as the Trustees may determine in their
absolute discretion.
If Grantor's son, MICHAEL LOCCISANO, shall die before the
entire principal of the trust held for his benefit has been distributed, the
then principal of such trust shall be distributed to, or held in trust for the
benefit of, such person or persons among such son's issue and upon such estates
or conditions, as Grantor's said son shall appoint by Will, making specific
reference to this power. Any unappointed property shall be distributed to the
then living issue of such son, per stirpes. If there be no such issue,
distribution shall be to Grantor's then living issue,
2
<PAGE>
per stirpes; provided, however, that any amount distributable to Grantor's
daughter, MARISSA LOCCISANO, for whom at such time Trustees hold a separate
trust executed this date shall be added to such trust for administrative and
distribution as a part thereof. if there be no such issue of Grantor then
living, distribution shall be to the persons who would be entitled to inherit
the same from Grantor in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey
then in force, as if Grantor had died immediately after the death of such son,
intestate, owning said property and domiciled in such State.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
each time that an addition of property is made to the trust by the Grantor
during the life of the Grantor (other than the initial contribution by the
Grantor set forth in Exhibit A hereto), each beneficiary hereof, child of the
Grantor, if living at the time of the addition and if the beneficiary has not
reached the annual limit on withdrawal rights set forth below prior to such
addition, shall have the right to withdraw property then belonging to the trust
estate (including property constituting such addition) having a value at the
time of the withdrawal equal to the value of the addition at the time of the
addition divided by the number of beneficiaries. In calculating the withdrawal
right of each beneficiary resulting from an addition, any addition that would
cause some but not all of such beneficiaries reach such annual limit shall be
treated as if it had consisted of consecutive
3
<PAGE>
additions such that the total of the resulting withdrawal rights of each
beneficiary as large as possible hereunder.
The right of withdrawal of each beneficiary pursuant to this
Article shall be subject to the limitation that the total amount which each
beneficiary may withdraw by reason of additions in any one calendar year shall
not exceed the "annual exclusion amount". The "annual exclusion amount" shall
mean the amount excludible from gifts for gift tax purposes by virtue of Section
2503(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, or any successor thereto, in effect in the
year in question (currently $ 10,000); provided that during any time that the
Grantor is married the "annual exclusion amount" shall mean twice the amount so
excludible (currently $20,000).
The Trustees, promptly after any addition of property is made
to the trust during the life of the Grantor, shall give written notice to each
beneficiary acquiring a withdrawal right by reason of such addition, setting
forth a description of the added property, the right of withdrawal resulting
from such addition, and the time limit to exercise such right. If such
beneficiary is under a legal disability, notice shall be given to the legal
guardian of or committee for the beneficiary or, if none, to a person in a
position to act on behalf of such beneficiary as the Trustees shall deem
appropriate. The withdrawal power may be exercised by written notice delivered
to the Trustees by the beneficiary or, if the beneficiary is under a legal
disability, by the legal guardian, committee or person designated by the
Trustees
4
<PAGE>
as aforesaid. Any commission payable with respect to principal so withdrawn
shall be charged against such principal.
The withdrawal rights of each beneficiary by reason of
successive additions shall be cumulative, but the cumulative withdrawal rights
of each beneficiary, to the extent not exercised, shall be decreased an December
31st of each year (but not below zero) by the greater of $5,000 or 5% of the
value of the principal of the trust on December 31st, provided that any
withdrawal right resulting from an addition in November or December shall not be
subject to any decrease under this provision until December 31st of the
following year. If the beneficiary files for bankruptcy, the aforesaid
withdrawal right shall be forfeited.
ARTICLE SECOND
Use of Principal
The Trustees are authorized, at any time and from time to
time, to pay to, or apply to the use of, the beneficiary of any trust held
hereunder, for such beneficiary's health, education, maintenance or support, any
part or all of principal of such trust as the Trustees may determine in their
absolute discretion, without necessarily taking into account other resources
available to such beneficiary. No such payment shall be charged upon a
subsequent division of the trust estate against the principal of any share which
may be set apart for a beneficiary.
ARTICLE THIRD

<PAGE>
Distributions To Minors Or Incompetents
In any case in which the Trustees are authorized or directed
by any provision of this Agreement to pay or distribute income or principal to
any person who shall be a minor or incompetent, the Trustees, in their absolute
discretion and without authorization of any court, may pay or distribute the
whole or any part of such income or principal to such minor or incompetent
personally, or may apply the whole or any part thereof directly to the health,
education, maintenance or support of such minor or incompetent, or may pay or
distribute the whole or any part thereof to the guardian, committee, conservator
or other legal representative, wherever appointed, of such minor or incompetent
or to the person with whom such minor or incompetent may from time to time
reside, or in the case of a minor, may pay or distribute the whole or any part
thereof to a custodian for such minor under any gifts to minors or transfers to
minors act. The receipt of the person to whom any such payment or distribution
is so made shall be a sufficient discharge therefor, even though the Trustees
may be such person.
The Trustees, in their absolute discretion, may defer payment
or distribution of any or all income or principal to which a minor may be
entitled until such minor shall attain the age of twenty-one (21) years, or to
make such payment or distribution at any time and from time to time, during the
minority of such minor, holding the whole or the undistributed portion thereof
as a separate fund vested in such minor but subject to the power in
6
<PAGE>
trust hereby given to the Trustees to administer and invest such fund and to use
the income or principal thereof for the benefit of such minor as if such fund
were held in trust hereunder. No bond or other security and no periodic accounts
shall be required with respect to such fund, and the same shall be subject to
commission as if it were a separate trust fund. The Trustees shall pay and
distribute any balance of such fund to such minor when such minor shall attain
the age of twenty-one (21) years. Except as is hereinabove provided, if such
minor shall die before attaining the age of twenty-one (21) years, the Trustees
shall pay and distribute such balance to the executors, administrators or legal
representatives of the estate of such minor, or if there shall be no such legal
representative, to such persons as would have inherited the same and in the same
proportions as they would have taken if such minor had died intestate,
unmarried, the absolute owner thereof and a resident of the State in which such
minor shall die domiciled.
The word "minor", wherever used in this Article THIRD, shall
mean any person who has not attained the age of twenty-one (21) years.
ARTICLE FOURTH
Life Insurance and Death Benefits
With respect to any insurance policies or employee death
benefits payable to the Trustees, the Trustees, upon being advised that any sum
is so payable by reason of the death of the Grantor, shall endeavor to collect
the same, and may bring a suit or action
7
<PAGE>
therefor, or may compromise, adjust, settle or submit to arbitration any claims
therefor. The Trustees shall be entitled to reimbursement from the trust estate
for expenses incurred by the Trustees in collecting or attempting to collect any
such sum by suit, action or otherwise. The Trustees, however, shall be under no
duty to bring a suit or action unless the expenses of the Trustees, including
attorneys' fees, shall have been advanced or guaranteed to the satisfaction of
the Trustees. The Trustees may repay, out of the trust estate, any advances made
by the Trustees or reimburse the Trustees for expenses incurred in collecting or
attempting to collect any sum as aforesaid.
The Trustees in no case shall be under any duty or obligation
to make any claim against the Grantor's estate, or take any action against the
executors, administrators or legal representatives of the Grantor's estate, for
reimbursement for any reduction of the sums payable upon the death of the
Grantor by reason of unpaid premiums or for any other cause, including any loans
and interest thereto secured by any insurance policies.
During the life of the Grantor, the Trustees may, in their
discretion, apply the net income or principal of the trust estate to the payment
of premiums on any life insurance policy of which the Trustees or any trust
hereunder is beneficiary. If the net income and principal is insufficient to pay
such premiums, the Trustees may notify the Grantor and the beneficiaries of the
trust of such insufficiency and give them the opportunity to furnish the
necessary funds. If neither the Grantor nor any of the beneficiar-
8
<PAGE>
ies furnishes the funds necessary to pay the premiums, the Trustees may, but
shall not be obligated to, obtain the funds required to pay such premiums by
selling a portion of the principal of the trust estate, by borrowing on the
security of such principal, by borrowing against the cash surrender value of the
policy or by surrendering some policies and using the proceeds to pay the
premiums on other policies. The Trustees also is authorized to convert such
policies to paid-up or extended term insurance if the trust estate does not have
the necessary funds to pay the premiums. If no funds are available for the
payment of the premiums of any insurance policy, the Trustees may assign
ownership of such policy to the then living issue of the Grantor.
ARTICLE FIFTH
Irrevocability
This Agreement and the trusts created hereunder are
irrevocable. The Grantor shall execute such further instruments as shall be
necessary to vest the Trustees with full title to the property which is the
subject of this Agreement.

(q) It is Grantor's intention that with respect to stock of a corporation
which desires to elect or has elected qualification pursuant to
Subchapter "'S' Corporation"), which is or becomes an asset of any
trust created hereunder and Trustees determine that such election is
in the beat interest of the trust and the beneficiary thereof and
Trustees determine to consent to or continue such election, such stock
shall be held in separate trusts, one for each individual income
beneficiary, and such stock shall be allocated among such separate
trusts, and the provisions of each such trust shall have such terms as
shall meet the requirements of a "qualified Subchapter "'S' trust" as
defined in Section 1361(d) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
or any successor provision thereto, which present requirements are as
set forth in ARTICLE SIXTH (c) (i) hereof. To the extent that a
provision of any trust does not meet the requirements of said Internal
Revenue Code Section, the provision shall be given no force or effect
and such trust shall be administered with regard to such provision.
(i) At present, the Internal Revenue Code provides that a "qualified
Subchapter 'S' trust" means a trust, (a) all
14
<PAGE>
the income of which is distributed currently to one individual (hereinafter
"the current income beneficiary") who is a citizen or a resident of the
United States; and (B) the terms of which require that: (I) during the life
of the current income beneficiary, there shall be only one income
beneficiary of the trust; (II) any principal distributed during the life of
the current income beneficiary shall be distributed only to such
beneficiary; (III) the income interest of the current income beneficiary in
the trust shall terminate on the earlier of such beneficiary's death or the
termination of the trust; and (IV) upon the termination of the trust during
the life of the current income beneficiary, the trust shall distribute all
of its assets to such beneficiary.
(ii) Grantor appoints Trustees of a trust created under this Trust
Agreement which holds stock in a corporation which desires to elect or has
elected qualification pursuant to Subchapter 'S' of the Internal Revenue
Service Code of 1986, as amended, if the beneficiary of such trust has not
attained the age of Twenty-One (21) years or is determined to be
incapacitated pursuant to ARTICLE THIRD of this Trust Agreement, as the
legal representative of such beneficiary, to have the sole power to make an
election on behalf of such beneficiary to have such trust qualify under
Internal Revenue Code
15
<PAGE>
Section 1361(d), or any successor provision thereto, as a qualified
Subchapter 'S' trust and/or to consent to the corporation's Subchapter 'S'
election pursuant to Internal Revenue Section 1362, or any successor
provision thereto,
(iii) A trust created under this Trust Agreement holding stock of a
corporation which has elected qualification pursuant to Subchapter 'S' of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may only be merged with a
trust for the benefit of the same beneficiary which qualifies as a
Subchapter 'S' trust pursuant to Section 1361(d) (3) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1086, as amended, or any successor provision thereto.
(iv) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, with regard to a
qualified Subchapter 'S' trust as defined in Section 1361(d) (3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any successor provision thereto, all
income distributed at a beneficiary's death shall be payable to the estate
of such beneficiary.
No person who deals with any Trustee hereunder shall be bound to see to
the application of any asset delivered to such Trustee or to inquire into the
authority for, or propriety of, any action taken or not taken by such Trustee.
This Agreement, however, shall not be construed to permit any person to deal
with the trust estate for less than adequate consideration, to borrow without
adequate interest or adequate security, to exercise any power of
16
<PAGE>
administration in a nonfiduciary capacity, or otherwise to act in such manner as
to cause the Grantor to be treated as the owner of the trust estate or any part
thereof.
No Trustee shall be liable for acts or omissions in administering the trust
estate or any trust created by this Agreement, except for that Trustee's own
actual fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any Trustee becomes
liable as Trustee to any other person who is not a beneficiary in connection
with any matter not within the Trustee's control and not due to the Trustee's
actual fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Trustee shall be
fully indemnified and held harmless by the trust estate and any trust created
hereunder giving rise to such liability, as the case may be, against and in
respect of any damages that such Trustee may sustain, including without
limitation attorneys' fees.
The Trustees are authorized, but not required, to accept any
property transferred to the Trustees by any person during such person's lifetime
or by such person's last will and testament. Any property so transferred to, and
accepted by, the Trustees shall become a part of such trust or trusts created by
this Agreement as such person shall direct and may be commingled with the other
property in the trust or trusts to which such property has been added and shall
be held, administered and disposed of as a part of such trust or trusts.

DECLARATION OF TRUST
DECLARATION OF TRUST, made as of June 9, 1992, among CHARLES
N. LOCCISANO, having an address at 18 Leonard Drive, Marlboro, New Jersey 07751,
as grantor (hereinafter referred to as the "Grantor"), and ALAN S. GOTTLICH,
having an address at 146 English Street, Fort Lee, New Jersey 07024, and SAUL
FEIGER, having an address at 152-18 Union Turnpike, Kew Gardens Hills, New York
11367, as trustees (collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Trustees").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Grantor's wife is JUNE LOCCISANO, and the Grantor
has two children, MICHAEL LOCCISANO and MARISSA LOCCISANO; and
WHEREAS, the Grantor desires to create an irrevocable trust of
the property described in Exhibit A hereto, together with such monies,
securities and other assets as the Trustees hereafter may hold or acquire
hereunder (said property, monies, securities and other assets, together with any
additions thereto received pursuant to the Grantor's last will and testament or
as the proceeds of insurance on the Grantor's life, or as death benefits or
otherwise, being hereinafter referred to as the "trust estate"), for the
purposes and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants herein
contained and other valuable consideration, the receipt and suffi-
1
<PAGE>
ciency of which hereby is acknowledged, the Grantor hereby irrevocably
transfers, conveys, assigns and delivers to the Trustees as and for the trust
estate the property more particularly described in Exhibit A hereto, to hold the
same, and any other property which the Trustees hereafter may acquire, IN TRUST,
for the purposes and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth:
ARTICLE FIRST
Beneficiaries 0f Trust
The Trustees shall pay the entire net income of this Trust, in
such periodic installments as the Trustees shall find convenient, but at least
as often as quarter-annually, to Grantor's daughter, MARISSA LOCCISANO. In
addition, the Trustees may pay to or for the benefit of said child, for her
health, education, maintenance or support, any part or all of the principal of
this trust, in such amounts and proportions as the Trustees may determine in
their absolute discretion.
If Grantor's daughter, MARISSA LOCCISANO, shall die before the
entire principal of the trust held for his benefit has been distributed, the
then principal of such trust shall be distributed to, or held in trust for the
benefit of, such person or persons among such daughter's issue and upon such
estates or conditions, as Grantor's said daughter shall appoint by Will, making
specific reference to this power. Any unappointed property shall be distributed
to the then living issue of such son, per stirpes. If there be no such issue,
distribution shall be to Grantor's then living issue,
2
<PAGE>
per stirpes; provided, however, that any amount distributable to Grantor's son,
MICHAEL LOCCISANO, for whom at such time Trustees hold a separate trust executed
this date shall be added to such trust for administrative and distribution as a
part thereof. if there be no such issue of Grantor then living, distribution
shall be to the persons who would be entitled to inherit the same from Grantor
in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey then in force, as if
Grantor had died immediately after the death of such daughter, intestate, owning
said property and domiciled in such State.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
each time that an addition of property is made to the trust by the Grantor
during the life of the Grantor (other than the initial contribution by the
Grantor set forth in Exhibit A hereto), each beneficiary hereof, child of the
Grantor, if living at the time of the addition and if the beneficiary has not
reached the annual limit on withdrawal rights set forth below prior to such
addition, shall have the right to withdraw property then belonging to the trust
estate (including property constituting such addition) having a value at the
time of the withdrawal equal to the value of the addition at the time of the
addition divided by the number of beneficiaries. In calculating the withdrawal
right of each beneficiary resulting from an addition, any addition that would
cause some but not all of such beneficiaries reach such annual limit shall be
treated as if it had consisted of consecutive
3
<PAGE>
additions such that the total of the resulting withdrawal rights of each
beneficiary as large as possible hereunder.
The right of withdrawal of each beneficiary pursuant to this
Article shall be subject to the limitation that the total amount which each
beneficiary may withdraw by reason of additions in any one calendar year shall
not exceed the "annual exclusion amount". The "annual exclusion amount" shall
mean the amount excludible from gifts for gift tax purposes by virtue of Section
2503(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, or any successor thereto, in effect in the
year in question (currently $ 10,000); provided that during any time that the
Grantor is married the "annual exclusion amount" shall mean twice the amount so
excludible (currently $20,000).
The Trustees, promptly after any addition of property is made
to the trust during the life of the Grantor, shall give written notice to each
beneficiary acquiring a withdrawal right by reason of such addition, setting
forth a description of the added property, the right of withdrawal resulting
from such addition, and the time limit to exercise such right. If such
beneficiary is under a legal disability, notice shall be given to the legal
guardian of or committee for the beneficiary or, if none, to a person in a
position to act on behalf of such beneficiary as the Trustees shall deem
appropriate. The withdrawal power may be exercised by written notice delivered
to the Trustees by the beneficiary or, if the beneficiary is under a legal
disability, by the legal guardian, committee or person designated by the
Trustees
4
<PAGE>
as aforesaid. Any commission payable with respect to principal so withdrawn
shall be charged against such principal.
The withdrawal rights of each beneficiary by reason of
successive additions shall be cumulative, but the cumulative withdrawal rights
of each beneficiary, to the extent not exercised, shall be decreased an December
31st of each year (but not below zero) by the greater of $5,000 or 5% of the
value of the principal of the trust on December 31st, provided that any
withdrawal right resulting from an addition in November or December shall not be
subject to any decrease under this provision until December 31st of the
following year. If the beneficiary files for bankruptcy, the aforesaid
withdrawal right shall be forfeited.
ARTICLE SECOND
Use of Principal
The Trustees are authorized, at any time and from time to
time, to pay to, or apply to the use of, the beneficiary of any trust held
hereunder, for such beneficiary's health, education, maintenance or support, any
part or all of principal of such trust as the Trustees may determine in their
absolute discretion, without necessarily taking into account other resources
available to such beneficiary. No such payment shall be charged upon a
subsequent division of the trust estate against the principal of any share which
may be set apart for a beneficiary.

Distributions To Minors Or Incompetents
In any case in which the Trustees are authorized or directed
by any provision of this Agreement to pay or distribute income or principal to
any person who shall be a minor or incompetent, the Trustees, in their absolute
discretion and without authorization of any court, may pay or distribute the
whole or any part of such income or principal to such minor or incompetent
personally, or may apply the whole or any part thereof directly to the health,
education, maintenance or support of such minor or incompetent, or may pay or
distribute the whole or any part thereof to the guardian, committee, conservator
or other legal representative, wherever appointed, of such minor or incompetent
or to the person with whom such minor or incompetent may from time to time
reside, or in the case of a minor, may pay or distribute the whole or any part
thereof to a custodian for such minor under any gifts to minors or transfers to
minors act. The receipt of the person to whom any such payment or distribution
is so made shall be a sufficient discharge therefor, even though the Trustees
may be such person.
The Trustees, in their absolute discretion, may defer payment
or distribution of any or all income or principal to which a minor may be
entitled until such minor shall attain the age of twenty-one (21) years, or to
make such payment or distribution at any time and from time to time, during the
minority of such minor, holding the whole or the undistributed portion thereof
as a separate fund vested in such minor but subject to the power in
6
<PAGE>
trust hereby given to the Trustees to administer and invest such fund and to use
the income or principal thereof for the benefit of such minor as if such fund
were held in trust hereunder. No bond or other security and no periodic accounts
shall be required with respect to such fund, and the same shall be subject to
commission as if it were a separate trust fund. The Trustees shall pay and
distribute any balance of such fund to such minor when such minor shall attain
the age of twenty-one (21) years. Except as is hereinabove provided, if such
minor shall die before attaining the age of twenty-one (21) years, the Trustees
shall pay and distribute such balance to the executors, administrators or legal
representatives of the estate of such minor, or if there shall be no such legal
representative, to such persons as would have inherited the same and in the same
proportions as they would have taken if such minor had died intestate,
unmarried, the absolute owner thereof and a resident of the State in which such
minor shall die domiciled.
The word "minor", wherever used in this Article THIRD, shall
mean any person who has not attained the age of twenty-one (21) years.
ARTICLE FOURTH
Life Insurance and Death Benefits
With respect to any insurance policies or employee death
benefits payable to the Trustees, the Trustees, upon being advised that any sum
is so payable by reason of the death of the Grantor, shall endeavor to collect
the same, and may bring a suit or action
7
<PAGE>
therefor, or may compromise, adjust, settle or submit to arbitration any claims
therefor. The Trustees shall be entitled to reimbursement from the trust estate
for expenses incurred by the Trustees in collecting or attempting to collect any
such sum by suit, action or otherwise. The Trustees, however, shall be under no
duty to bring a suit or action unless the expenses of the Trustees, including
attorneys' fees, shall have been advanced or guaranteed to the satisfaction of
the Trustees. The Trustees may repay, out of the trust estate, any advances made
by the Trustees or reimburse the Trustees for expenses incurred in collecting or
attempting to collect any sum as aforesaid.
The Trustees in no case shall be under any duty or obligation
to make any claim against the Grantor's estate, or take any action against the
executors, administrators or legal representatives of the Grantor's estate, for
reimbursement for any reduction of the sums payable upon the death of the
Grantor by reason of unpaid premiums or for any other cause, including any loans
and interest thereto secured by any insurance policies.
During the life of the Grantor, the Trustees may, in their
discretion, apply the net income or principal of the trust estate to the payment
of premiums on any life insurance policy of which the Trustees or any trust
hereunder is beneficiary. If the net income and principal is insufficient to pay
such premiums, the Trustees may notify the Grantor and the beneficiaries of the
trust of such insufficiency and give them the opportunity to furnish the
necessary funds. If neither the Grantor nor any of the beneficiar-
8
<PAGE>
ies furnishes the funds necessary to pay the premiums, the Trustees may, but
shall not be obligated to, obtain the funds required to pay such premiums by
selling a portion of the principal of the trust estate, by borrowing on the
security of such principal, by borrowing against the cash surrender value of the
policy or by surrendering some policies and using the proceeds to pay the
premiums on other policies. The Trustees also is authorized to convert such
policies to paid-up or extended term insurance if the trust estate does not have
the necessary funds to pay the premiums. If no funds are available for the
payment of the premiums of any insurance policy, the Trustees may assign
ownership of such policy to the then living issue of the Grantor.
ARTICLE FIFTH
Irrevocability
This Agreement and the trusts created hereunder are
irrevocable. The Grantor shall execute such further instruments as shall be
necessary to vest the Trustees with full title to the property which is the
subject of this Agreement.

(q) It is Grantor's intention that with respect to stock of a corporation
which desires to elect or has elected qualification pursuant to
Subchapter "'S' Corporation"), which is or becomes an asset of any
trust created hereunder and Trustees determine that such election is
in the beat interest of the trust and the beneficiary thereof and
Trustees determine to consent to or continue such election, such stock
shall be held in separate trusts, one for each individual income
beneficiary, and such stock shall be allocated among such separate
trusts, and the provisions of each such trust shall have such terms as
shall meet the requirements of a "qualified Subchapter "'S' trust" as
defined in Section 1361(d) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
or any successor provision thereto, which present requirements are as
set forth in ARTICLE SIXTH (c) (i) hereof. To the extent that a
provision of any trust does not meet the requirements of said Internal
Revenue Code Section, the provision shall be given no force or effect
and such trust shall be administered with regard to such provision.
(i) At present, the Internal Revenue Code provides that a "qualified
Subchapter 'S' trust" means a trust, (a) all
14
<PAGE>
the income of which is distributed currently to one individual (hereinafter
"the current income beneficiary") who is a citizen or a resident of the
United States; and (B) the terms of which require that: (I) during the life
of the current income beneficiary, there shall be only one income
beneficiary of the trust; (II) any principal distributed during the life of
the current income beneficiary shall be distributed only to such
beneficiary; (III) the income interest of the current income beneficiary in
the trust shall terminate on the earlier of such beneficiary's death or the
termination of the trust; and (IV) upon the termination of the trust during
the life of the current income beneficiary, the trust shall distribute all
of its assets to such beneficiary.
(ii) Grantor appoints Trustees of a trust created under this Trust
Agreement which holds stock in a corporation which desires to elect or has
elected qualification pursuant to Subchapter 'S' of the Internal Revenue
Service Code of 1986, as amended, if the beneficiary of such trust has not
attained the age of Twenty-One (21) years or is determined to be
incapacitated pursuant to ARTICLE THIRD of this Trust Agreement, as the
legal representative of such beneficiary, to have the sole power to make an
election on behalf of such beneficiary to have such trust qualify under
Internal Revenue Code
15
<PAGE>
Section 1361(d), or any successor provision thereto, as a qualified
Subchapter 'S' trust and/or to consent to the corporation's Subchapter 'S'
election pursuant to Internal Revenue Section 1362, or any successor
provision thereto,
(iii) A trust created under this Trust Agreement holding stock of a
corporation which has elected qualification pursuant to Subchapter 'S' of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may only be merged with a
trust for the benefit of the same beneficiary which qualifies as a
Subchapter 'S' trust pursuant to Section 1361(d) (3) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1086, as amended, or any successor provision thereto.
(iv) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, with regard to a
qualified Subchapter 'S' trust as defined in Section 1361(d) (3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any successor provision thereto, all
income distributed at a beneficiary's death shall be payable to the estate
of such beneficiary.
No person who deals with any Trustee hereunder shall be bound to see to
the application of any asset delivered to such Trustee or to inquire into the
authority for, or propriety of, any action taken or not taken by such Trustee.
This Agreement, however, shall not be construed to permit any person to deal
with the trust estate for less than adequate consideration, to borrow without
adequate interest or adequate security, to exercise any power of
16
<PAGE>
administration in a nonfiduciary capacity, or otherwise to act in such manner as
to cause the Grantor to be treated as the owner of the trust estate or any part
thereof.
No Trustee shall be liable for acts or omissions in administering the trust
estate or any trust created by this Agreement, except for that Trustee's own
actual fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any Trustee becomes
liable as Trustee to any other person who is not a beneficiary in connection
with any matter not within the Trustee's control and not due to the Trustee's
actual fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct, such Trustee shall be
fully indemnified and held harmless by the trust estate and any trust created
hereunder giving rise to such liability, as the case may be, against and in
respect of any damages that such Trustee may sustain, including without
limitation attorneys' fees.
The Trustees are authorized, but not required, to accept any
property transferred to the Trustees by any person during such person's lifetime
or by such person's last will and testament. Any property so transferred to, and
accepted by, the Trustees shall become a part of such trust or trusts created by
this Agreement as such person shall direct and may be commingled with the other
property in the trust or trusts to which such property has been added and shall
be held, administered and disposed of as a part of such trust or trusts.

such right, title and interest. Until the bank shall receive from some person
interested in this trust written notice of any death or other event upon which a
right to receive income or principal may depend, the bank shall incur no

Any Trustee, at any time and from time to time, by instrument
in writing signed and acknowledged, may delegate any or all of the rights,

to the persons sui juris who would be entitled to a share of the principal of
such trust if it were then to terminate. If upon such resignation no Trustee
remains in office, such resignation shall not be effective until the Grantor, or
if the Grantor is unable to do so, a court of competent jurisdiction, has
appointed a successor Trustee. The expenses of the accounting of a resigning
Trustee shall be a proper charge against such trust.
If the Trustees shall resign, the successor Trustee of each
trust created hereunder shall be such person, bank or trust company as shall be
designated in a written instrument executed by the Grantor, or, if the Grantor

trustee or trustees in office from time to time. Any such trustee shall have the
same rights, powers, duties, authority and privileges, whether or not

notwithstanding any law of any State or other jurisdiction to the contrary.

trust, and upon making any such payment, the Trustees shall be released fully
from all further liability or accountability therefor,
The right of any beneficiary to any payment of income or
principal shall in every case be subject to any charge or deduction which the
