                 BUSINESS TRAVEL INSURANCE PLAN


     BENEFITS

     You are automatically insured against accidental death and
     dismemberment that occurs when you are in travel status on CF
     business.

     Coverage begins when you leave your home, office, or other
     location (whichever occurs last) on CF business and continues
     until you return to your home or office (whichever occurs
     first) at the end of your trip.  During this period, you are
     covered against all accidents, 24 hours a day, subject to the
     exclusions listed in the Directors Business Travel Insurance
     Plan.

     The principal sum for which you are insured is $500,000.  This
     amount is payable in addition to any benefit you may be
     entitled to receive under CF's Directors 24-Hour Accidental
     Death and Dismemberment Plan.

     (Note - The maximum payment under this plan and the Directors
     24-Hour Accidental Death and Dismemberment Plan for all losses
     arising from any one accident is $5,000,000.  If several
     directors are involved in one accident, and the total
     indemnity exceeds $5,000,000, each individual payment will be
     reduced proportionately.)
