R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has deemed it advisable to amend Section 5.4 of the Plan to give the Administrator (as defined in the Plan) discretion to modify the schedule for vesting (but not distribution) of phantom stock awards in appropriate circumstances; and

1. Amendment to Section 5.4. Section 5.4 (“Vesting”) of the Plan is hereby amended by deleting in its entirety Section 5.4 of the Plan in its current form and substituting therefor the following:

5.4. Vesting. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the following provisions shall apply: Each Award shall vest on the earlier to occur of the following:

(i) the date of a Change of Control;

Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, any Award which is not vested upon the date of a Participant’s termination of employment with the Company shall be forfeited, and no payment shall be made thereon.
