     highest and lowest selling prices of such stock as reported on 
     the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions Tape on the 
     Tax Date, or if such stock is not traded that day, then on the 
     next preceding day on which such stock was traded; and

         (v)  if Participant is or becomes subject to Section 16(b)
     of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 
     Act"), such election must be made in compliance with Rule 16b-
