PROXY STATEMENT

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation
by the Board of Directors of Hub Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hub
Group" or the "Company"), of proxies for use at the 2002 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders of the Company to be held on Tuesday, May 21, 2002, and any
adjournment thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). This Proxy Statement and
accompanying form of proxy are first being sent to stockholders on or about
April 12, 2002.

The Company's Class A common stock, $.01 par value (the "Class A Common
Stock"), and the Class B common stock, $.01 par value (the "Class B Common
Stock," together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock"), are the
only issued and outstanding classes of stock. Only stockholders of record at the
close of business on March 29, 2002 (the "Record Date"), are entitled to notice
of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, the Company had
7,046,250 shares of Class A Common Stock (each a "Class A Share") and 662,296
shares of Class B Common Stock (each a "Class B Share," and collectively with
the Class A Shares, the "Shares") outstanding and entitled to vote.

VOTING RIGHTS AND PROCEDURES

Shares represented by an effective proxy given by a stockholder will be
voted as directed by the stockholder. If a properly signed proxy form is
returned to the Company and one or more proposals are not marked, it will be
voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors on all
such proposals. A stockholder giving a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to
the voting of the proxy by giving written notice to the Secretary of the
Company, by executing a later dated proxy or by attending the Annual Meeting and
voting in person.

Each Class A Share is entitled to one (1) vote and each Class B Share
is entitled to twenty (20) votes. The holders of Shares having a majority of the
votes which could be cast by the holders of all Shares, present in person or
represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting.
Abstentions will be treated as Shares that are present and entitled to vote for
purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. If a broker indicates on the
proxy that it does not have discretionary authority as to certain Shares to vote
on a particular matter, those Shares will be considered as present and entitled
to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. The Yeager family
members own all 662,296 shares of Class B Common Stock and 741,800 shares of
Class A Common Stock. Consequently, the Yeager family controls approximately 69%
of the voting power of the Company on all matters presented for stockholder
action. The Yeager family members are parties to a stockholders' agreement,
pursuant to which they have agreed to vote all of their shares of Class B Common
Stock in accordance with the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares.

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting will be
tabulated by the election inspectors appointed for the meeting and such election
inspectors will determine whether or not a quorum is present.

The Board of Directors knows of no matters to be presented at the
Annual Meeting other than those set forth in the Notice of 2002 Annual Meeting
of Stockholders enclosed herewith. However, if any other matters do come before
the meeting, it is intended that the holders of the proxies will vote thereon in
their discretion. Any such other matter will require for its approval the
affirmative vote of the holders of Shares having a majority of the votes present
in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, provided a quorum is
present, or such greater vote as may be required under the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation, the Company's By-laws or applicable law. A list of
stockholders as of the record date will be available for inspection at the
Annual Meeting and for a period of ten days prior to the Annual Meeting at the
Company's offices in Lombard.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The number of directors of the Company, as determined by the Board of
Directors under Article III of the Company's By-laws, is currently six. Each
director holds office until his or her successor is elected and qualified or
until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or
removal.

The nominees for whom the enclosed proxy is intended to be voted are
set forth below. Each nominee for election as director currently serves as a
director of the Company. It is not contemplated that any of these nominees will
be unavailable for election, but if such a situation should arise, the proxy
will be voted in accordance with the best judgment of the proxyholder for such
person or persons as may be designated by the Board of Directors unless the
stockholder has directed otherwise.

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual
Meeting, provided a quorum is present. The outcome of the election is not
affected by abstentions or the withholding of authority to vote in the election,
or by broker non-votes. Stockholders are not allowed to cumulate their votes in
the election of directors.

If a stockholder desires to nominate persons for election as directors
at the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders written notice of such stockholder's
intent to make such a nomination must be given and received by the Secretary of
the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company either by personal
delivery or by United States mail no earlier than February 20, 2003 nor later
than March 22, 2003. Each notice must describe the nomination in sufficient
detail for the nomination to be summarized on the agenda for the meeting and
must set forth: (i) the name and address, as it appears on the books of the
Company, of the stockholder making the nomination, (ii) a representation that
the stockholder is a holder of record of stock in the Company entitled to vote
at the annual meeting of stockholders and intends to appear in person or by
proxy at the meeting to present the nomination, (iii) a statement of the class
and number of shares beneficially owned by the stockholder, (iv) the name and
address of any person to be nominated, (v) a description of all arrangements or
understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or
persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or
nominations are to be made by the stockholder, (vi) such other information
regarding such nominee proposed by such stockholder as would be required to be
included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), and (vii) the consent of
such nominee to serve as a director of the Company if elected. The presiding
officer of the annual meeting of stockholders will, if the facts warrant, refuse
to acknowledge a nomination not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure,
and any such nomination not properly brought before the meeting will not be
considered.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Directors who are not employees of the Company received $24,000 for
serving as a director during 2001. Directors who are employees of the Company do
not receive additional compensation for such services. Both employee and
non-employee directors are reimbursed for their travel and other expenses
incurred in connection with attending meetings of the Board of Directors or
committees thereof. In addition, simultaneously with the closing of the initial
public offering (the "Offering") of the Company, Messrs. Eppen, Reaves and Slark
each received options to purchase 12,000 shares of Class A Common Stock
exercisable at $14.00 per share. All of these options have now vested for each
director. On December 10, 1999, Messrs. Eppen, Reaves and Slark each received
additional options to purchase 12,000 shares of Class A Common Stock exercisable
at $18.75 per share. These options vest ratably over a three-year period.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee approves the policies under which
compensation is paid or awarded to the Company's executive officers. The
Compensation Committee consists of the three independent members of the Board.

In October 1999, the Board of Directors commissioned a third party to
conduct a study of the Company's compensation program. This study included a
survey of compensation practices in the transportation industry using a broad
sample of companies within the industry. This independent study was used as the
benchmark to determine competitive compensation ranges for senior executives.
The Compensation Committee implemented certain recommendations from the
independent study and, using this study, determined the compensation structure
for 2001. The Compensation Committee intends to have a third party periodically
conduct an independent study of compensation practices in the transportation
industry to update the Company's benchmark of competitive compensation ranges
for senior executives.

The 2001 Compensation structure approved by the Compensation Committee
was based on the following philosophy:

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

The Company's compensation philosophy is designed to link executive
performance to long-term stockholder value, connect pay with individual
performance, maintain a compensation system that is competitive with the
industry standards and attract and retain outstanding executives.

DESCRIPTION OF COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

The Company's executive compensation program has three components--base
salary, annual incentives, and long-term incentives. Base salary and annual
incentives are primarily designed to reward current and past performance.
Long-term incentives are primarily designed to provide strong incentives for
long-term future Company growth.

BASE SALARY To attract and retain qualified executives, base salary is
determined using competitive criteria within the transportation industry. Salary
increases are based on individual performance and, to a lesser extent, trends
within the industry.

ANNUAL INCENTIVE The Company's bonus plan recognizes and rewards
executives for taking actions that build the value of the Company, generate
competitive total returns for stockholders, and provide value-added solutions
for the Company's customers. For most executive officers, bonus compensation is
based on individual performance and Company performance. The component of the
bonus based on individual performance is conditioned on the individual meeting
certain pre-determined objectives and the component of the bonus based on
Company performance is based on the Company meeting certain performance goals.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVES The Company's Long-Term Incentive Program serves to
reward executive performance that successfully executes the Company's long-term
business strategy and builds stockholder value. The program allows for the
awarding of options and stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and
performance units. During fiscal year 2001, no non-qualified stock options were
granted to the Company's executive officers.

SECTION 162(M) COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT DISCLOSURE

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code") limits the Company's deduction for compensation paid to the executive
officers named in the Summary Compensation Table to $1 million unless certain
requirements are met. The policy of the Committee with respect to section 162(m)
is to establish and maintain a compensation program which will optimize the
deductibility of compensation. In that regard, no executive officer received
compensation in excess of $1 million during fiscal year 2001. The Committee,
however, reserves the right to use its judgment, where merited by the
Committee's need to respond to changing business conditions or by an executive
officer's individual performance, to authorize compensation which may not, in a
specific case, be fully deductible to the Company.

COMPENSATION ADMINISTRATION

The Compensation Committee will follow an annual cycle to administer
each of the three components of executive compensation. The independent study of
competitive compensation practices within the transportation industry will
continue to be used as the benchmark to determine competitive compensation
ranges for senior executives. Individual performance and contribution to the
achievement of strategic objectives will be considered in the determination of
annual compensation for each executive. The integrity of the Company's
compensation program relies on an annual performance evaluation process.

DISCUSSION OF CEO COMPENSATION

Consistent with the Company's compensation philosophy, the Compensation
Committee approved Mr. David P. Yeager's total compensation during fiscal year
2001. Mr. Yeager's base salary was based on overall performance of the Company,
on relative levels of compensation for CEOs within the benchmark companies in
the transportation industry and on individual performance related to strategic
objectives. Mr. Yeager's incentive compensation was based on achievement of
goals relating to the Company's earnings per share target.

For 2001, the Compensation Committee decided to increase Mr. Yeager's
salary and reduce his bonus potential to reflect market practices. In 1999, Mr.
Yeager was paid $864,000, with $364,000 in the form of salary and $500,000 in
the form of bonus. For 2000, the Compensation Committee approved a package
allowing Mr.Yeager to earn $907,200, or five percent more than 1999, with

$463,068 in the form of salary and $444,132 in the form of bonus if the Company
met its goals for the year. For 2001, the Compensation Committee approved a
package allowing Mr. Yeager to earn $952,561, or five percent more than 2000,
with $539,123 in the form of salary and $413,438 in the form of bonus if the
Company met its goals for the year.

Mr. Yeager was paid his salary of $539,123 during 2001 but received no
bonus because the Company did not meet its earnings per share goal.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Each member of the Audit Committee is independent of the Company and its
management, as required of audit committee members by the National Association
of Securities Dealers listing standards. In June 2000, the Audit Committee
adopted and the Board approved a written charter. The charter specifies the
scope of the Audit Committee's responsibilities and how it carriers out those
responsibilities.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company's quarterly
and annual audited financial statements with management and with Arthur Andersen
LLP, the Company's independent public accountants. The Company has also
discussed with Arthur Andersen LLP the matters required to be discussed by
Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as
amended, by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. The Audit Committee has also received from Arthur Andersen
LLP the written disclosures required by Independence Standards Board Standard
No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, by the Independence
Standards Board, regarding their independence. The Audit Committee has discussed
with Arthur Andersen LLP their independence and considered whether the provision
of non-audit services referred to under "Independent Public Accountants" on page
19 is compatible with maintaining their independence. Based on the review and
discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of
Directors that the December 31, 2001 audited financial statements be included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2001.

APPROVAL OF 2002 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

A proposal will be presented at the Annual Meeting to approve the Hub
Group, Inc. 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan was adopted by
the Board of Directors of Hub Group effective as of April 4, 2002, subject to
shareholder approval.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The purpose of the Plan is to (a) attract and retain key executive and
managerial employees; (b) attract and retain the services of experienced and
knowledgeable directors; (c) motivate participating employees by means of
appropriate incentives to achieve long-range goals; (d) provide incentive
compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other
corporations; and (e) further identify participants' interests with those of the
Company's other shareholders through compensation that is based on the price
appreciation of common stock of the Company, and thereby promote the long-term
financial interest of the Company, including the growth in value of the
Company's equity and enhancement of long-term shareholder return.

A committee (the "Committee") comprised of members of the Board of
Directors, and selected by the Board of Directors, administers the Plan.
Currently, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors serves as the
"Committee". The Committee determines, from time to time, from among the
employees who are key executives or managerial employees of Hub Group and its
related companies (as defined in the Plan) those employees who will receive
awards under the Plan and thereby become participants in the Plan. The Committee
may grant to employees non-qualified stock and incentive stock options, stock
appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock and performance units, subject to
the terms and conditions established by the Committee. In addition each Director
(other than a Director who has already received an automatic award under the
Plan or a prior plan) who is not an employee of Hub Group or a related company
(an "Eligible Director") shall receive an automatic award of 12,000
non-qualified stock options under the Plan and thereby become a participant in
the Plan. Eligible Directors who have been granted an automatic award under a
prior plan which was outstanding on April 4, 2002, will receive an automatic
grant of 12,000 non-qualified stock options under the Plan as of the date the
prior award vests (provided the Eligible Director's service has not terminated
at that time). In addition to the automatic award of stock options, the Board of
Directors, after recommendation of directors who are not Eligible Directors, may
determine from among the Eligible Directors those Eligible Directors who will
receive awards of non-qualified stock options under the Plan, subject to the
terms and conditions established by the Board of Directors, and thereby become
participants in the Plan. Except for automatic and discretionary stock option
grants, an Eligible Director is not eligible to receive any other awards under
the Plan while he is an Eligible Director.

The number of shares of Hub Group common stock which may be issued or
granted under the Plan with respect to all participants shall not exceed 600,000
shares in the aggregate. Any shares of Hub Group common stock covered by an
award that expires, is forfeited or is terminated for any reason without
issuance of the shares may again become subject to awards under the Plan. In
addition, the number of shares of Hub Group common stock that may be issued or
granted under the Plan is subject to equitable adjustment in the event of a
reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, or other capital
readjustment of Hub Group common stock, and is subject to the ability to award
again shares that were subject to an award but were not delivered.

The number of shares of Hub Group common stock which may be issued
under the Plan with respect to options and stock appreciation rights awarded to
any one participant during any one fiscal year of the Company may not exceed
50,000. The number of shares of Hub Group common stock which may be issued under
the Plan with respect to awards, other than options and SARs, which are intended
to be "performance based compensation" (as that term is used in section 162(m)
of the Code) granted to any one participant during any one fiscal year of the
Company may not exceed 50,000. If such awards are denominated in cash value, no
more than $500,000 may be subject to such awards granted to any one participant
during any one fiscal year of the Company. The Hub Group common stock with
respect to which awards may be made under the Plan shall be shares currently
authorized but unissued or currently held or subsequently acquired by the
Company as treasury shares, including shares purchased in the open market or in
private transactions. At the discretion of the Committee, an award under the
Plan may be settled through cash payments, the delivery of Hub Group common
stock, the granting of replacement awards, or any combination of the foregoing.

The Plan is unlimited in duration, and in the event of Plan
termination, will remain in effect as long as any awards under it are
outstanding; provided, however, that no new award shall be made under the Plan
on a date that is more than ten years from the date that the Plan is adopted.
The Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Board of Directors,
without the consent of shareholders; provided, however, that no such amendment
or termination may adversely affect the rights of any participant or beneficiary
under any award made under the Plan prior to the date such amendment is adopted
by the Board of Directors.

The Plan is not subject to any provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Awards under the Plan are not transferable except as designated by the
participant by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that
once the participant is in receipt of the common stock under an award and all
restrictions on the award have lapsed, then the common stock awarded is
transferable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may permit awards to
be transferred to or for the benefit of the participant's family, subject to
such limits as the Committee may establish.

Termination provisions in the event of death or termination of
employment shall be in accordance with the restrictions and conditions contained
in the individual awards; provided, however, that if a participant's termination
of employment (or termination of service, in the case of an Eligible Director)
occurs on account of retirement, death or disability, awards may expire no later
than the one year anniversary of the termination and if the participants
termination of employment (or termination of service in the case of an Eligible
Director) occurs for other reasons, awards may expire no later than 60 days
after such termination. With respect to automatic options awarded to Eligible
Directors, a participant who ceases to be a Director (and does not become an
employee of Hub Group or a related company) will have three months from the date
he ceases to be a Director to exercise any vested options, unless he ceases to
be a Director by reason of his death, disability or retirement, in which case he
(or his estate) will have twelve months to exercise any options.

The employees of the Company and related companies are eligible to
become participants in the Plan. As of February 28, 2002, there were
approximately 1540 employees of the Company and related companies. As of the
date of this Proxy Statement no options have been granted under the Plan,
however, the Company may grant options prior to the Annual Meeting.

STOCK OPTIONS AWARDED TO PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE EMPLOYEES

The Committee may determine the type and terms of stock options granted
pursuant to the Plan to participants who are employees, provided that such
options are either non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options
(within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code); and provided that (1) the
option price per share shall not be less than the greater of (a) the fair market
value of a share of Hub Group common stock on the date the option is granted or
(b) the par value of a share of Hub Group common stock on such date, and (2)
each option must expire not later than 10 years after the date of grant.
Generally, no option may be exercised by a participant prior to the date the
participant completes one continuous year of employment with the Company or a
related company after the date as of which the option is granted (provided that

the Committee may permit earlier exercise following the participant's
termination of employment by reason of death or disability). The exercise of any
option will result in the surrender of any SARs granted in tandem therewith.

If a participant elects to exercise an option by paying all or a
portion of the purchase price in common stock, as permitted and in accordance
with the terms of the Plan, then such participant may, in the Committee's
discretion, be issued a new option to purchase additional shares of common stock
equal to the number of shares of common stock surrendered to the Company in such
payment. Such new option shall have a purchase price equal to the fair market
value per share on the date such new option is granted, shall first be
exercisable six months from the date of grant of the new option and shall have
an expiration date on the same date as the expiration date of the original
option so exercised by payment of the purchase price in shares of common stock.

The Committee may award dividend equivalents with respect to
non-qualified stock options and, subject to the limitations of the Code, with
respect to incentive stock options. The award of dividend equivalents shall
permit the participant to earn an amount equal to the dividends payable with
respect to the number of shares of common stock subject to the option for the
period the option is outstanding and unexercised. The right to payment of such
earned dividends shall be subject to such restrictions and limitations as may be
imposed by the Committee.

STOCK OPTIONS AWARDED TO PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE ELIGIBLE DIRECTORS

The Board may award non-qualified stock options pursuant to the Plan to
participants who are Eligible Directors. Generally, the terms of such
non-qualified stock options are determined by the Board, subject to the same
terms and conditions described above with respect to stock options awarded to
participants who are employees.

In addition to discretionary stock option grants, each Director who is
an Eligible Director shall be granted an option to purchase 12,000 shares of Hub
Group common stock (the "Eligible Director Award") as of the first business day
immediately following the date he becomes an Eligible Director, provided that he
has not previously received an Eligible Director Award under this Plan or a
comparable provision under any other Hub Group plan or any plan of a related
company. Generally, a Director may not receive more than one Eligible Director
Award. Eligible Directors who have been granted an automatic award under a prior
plan which is outstanding on April 4, 2002, however, will receive an automatic
grant of an option to purchase 12,000 shares of Hub Group Common Stock as of the
date the prior awards vests (provided the Eligible Director's service has not
terminated at that time).

An option awarded as an Eligible Director Award is not intended to
satisfy the requirements applicable to an "incentive stock option" as described
in section 422(b) of the Code. The option price per share of an option granted
as an Eligible Director Award shall not be less than the greater of (a) the fair
market value of a share of Hub Group common stock on the date the option is
granted or (b) the par value of a share of Hub Group common stock on such date.
Generally, the option shall be first exercisable with respect to each 1/3 of the
number of shares of common stock subject to the option on the date of each of
the first, second and third annual anniversaries of the date as of which the
option is granted, respectively, but only if the participant continues to serve
as a Director until such annual anniversary (or is employed by the Company or
any related company until such anniversary). Notwithstanding the foregoing, 100%
of the option will become fully exercisable on the date the participant ceases
to be a Director if such cessation occurs by reason of the participant's death
or disability. The option will not be exercisable after the earliest to occur of
(a) the ten-year anniversary of the date on which the option was granted; (b)
the one-year anniversary of the date an Eligible Director ceases to be a
Director after attaining age 65 or as a result of death or disability; and (c)
the three-month anniversary of the date an Eligible Director ceases to be a
Director prior to age 65 for a reason other than death or disability (the
"Expiration Date"). The option will not be exercisable after the Expiration Date
applicable to that option, and all rights to purchase shares of common stock
pursuant to the option shall cease as of the option's Expiration Date. A
participant shall not be permitted to exercise the option after the participant
ceases to be a Director except to the extent that the option is exercisable
immediately prior to such cessation; provided that, if, at the time a
participant ceases to be a Director, he is employed by the Company or a related
company, then the date of his subsequent termination of employment with the
Company or a related company, rather than the date he ceases to serve as a
Director, will be used to determine whether the Expiration Date occurs prior to
the tenth anniversary of the date the option was granted.

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

The Committee may award SARs in connection with all or any portion of a
previously or contemporaneously granted option or not in connection with an
option, in such number and on such terms as the Committee may decide. If an SAR
is granted in connection with an option, then in the discretion of the
Committee, the SAR may, but need not, be granted in tandem with the option. The
SAR must expire no later than 10 years after the date of grant, or if granted in
tandem with an option, the expiration date of the related option. Generally, no
SAR may be exercised by a participant prior to the date the participant has
completed one continuous year of employment with the Company after the date as
of which the SAR is granted (provided that the Committee may permit earlier
exercise following the participant's termination of employment by death or
disability). An SAR entitles the participant to receive the amount by which the
fair market value of a specified number of shares on the exercise date exceeds a
specified price, which price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market
value of a share of Hub Group common stock at the time the SAR is granted, or if
granted in tandem with an option, the exercise price with respect to shares
under the tandem option. Such amount shall be payable in Hub Group common stock,
in cash, or in a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. The
exercise of an SAR will result in the surrender of corresponding rights under
the tandem option.

The Committee may award dividend equivalents with respect to SARs. The
award of dividend equivalents shall permit the participant to earn an amount
equal to the dividends payable with respect to the number of shares of Stock
that are subject to the SARs for the period the SARs are outstanding and
unexercised. The right to payment of such earned dividends shall be subject to
such restrictions and limitations as may be imposed by the Committee.

RESTRICTED STOCK

The Committee may award to participants shares of Hub Group common
stock which are subject to certain restrictions as may be determined by the
Committee ("Restricted Stock"); provided that Restricted Stock awarded under the
Plan may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered for
a period of not less than one year after the time of the grant of such shares
(the "Restricted Period"); and provided further that a participant who
terminates employment prior to the end of the Restricted Period will forfeit all
shares of Restricted Stock that remain subject to restrictions. The Committee
may, in its discretion, at any time after the date of the award of Restricted
Stock, adjust the length of the Restricted Period to account for individual
circumstances of a participant or group of participants, but in no case shall
the length of the Restricted Period be less than one year.

PERFORMANCE UNITS

The Committee may award performance units to participants under the
Plan, subject to such conditions and restrictions as may be determined by the
Committee. The award of performance units entitles the participant to receive
value for the units at the end of a performance period to the extent provided
under the award. The number of units earned, and value received for them, will
be contingent on the degree to which the performance measures established at the
time of the initial award are met.

The Committee shall designate the participants to whom performance
units are to be granted, the term of the performance period, and other terms and
conditions of the award. The Committee will compare the actual performance to
the performance measures established for the performance period and determine
the number of units to be paid and their value. Payment for units earned shall
be wholly in cash, wholly in common stock or in a combination of the two, in a
lump sum or installments, and subject to vesting requirements and such other
conditions as the Committee shall determine. The Committee will determine the
number of earned units to be paid in cash and the number to be paid in common
stock. For performance units valued when granted in shares of common stock, one
share of common stock will be paid for each unit earned, or cash will be paid
for each unit earned equal to either (a) the fair market value of a share of
common stock at the end of the performance period or (b) the value of the common
stock determined based on the average fair market value for a number of days
determined by the Committee. For performance units valued when granted in cash,
the value of each unit earned will be paid in its initial cash value, or shares
of common stock will be distributed based on the cash value of the units earned
divided by (a) the fair market value of a share of common stock at the end of
the performance period or (b) the value of a share of common stock determined
based on the average fair market value for a number of days determined by the
Committee.

If a participant's termination of employment occurs during a
performance period with respect to any performance shares granted to him, the
Committee may determine that the participant will be entitled to receive all or
any portion of the performance shares that he would otherwise receive, and may
accelerate the determination and payment of the value of such performance shares
or make such other adjustments as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems
desirable.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

A participant who has been granted an incentive stock option will not
realize taxable income and the Company will not be entitled to a deduction at
the time of the grant or exercise of such option. If the participant makes no
disposition of shares acquired pursuant to an incentive stock option within two
years from the date of grant of such option, or within one year of the transfer
of the shares to the participant, any gain or loss realized on a subsequent
disposition of such shares will be treated as a capital gain or loss. Under such
circumstances, the Company will not be entitled to any deduction for Federal
income tax purposes. If the holding period requirements are not satisfied, the
participant will generally realize ordinary income at the time of disposition in
an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the
shares on the date of exercise over the option price or (ii) the excess of the
amount realized upon disposition of the shares, if any, over the option price,
and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. In addition, the
participant may be required to pay an alternative minimum tax on the amount of
his tax preference items, if such tax exceeds the tax otherwise due, which
amount of minimum tax paid may be available as a credit in future years to
reduce subsequent tax liability. The exercise of an incentive stock option will
generally result in an increase to alternative minimum taxable income, the basis
on which the alternative minimum tax is computed, by the amount by which the
fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise exceeds the exercise
price.

A participant will not realize taxable income at the time of the grant
of a non-qualified option. Upon exercise, however, of such non-qualified stock
option, the participant will realize ordinary income in an amount measured by
the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date of
exercise over the option price, and the Company will be entitled to a
corresponding deduction. Upon a subsequent disposition of such shares, the
participant will realize short-term or long-term capital gain or loss, with the
basis for computing such gain or loss equal to the option price plus the amount
of ordinary income realized upon exercise.

A participant will not realize taxable income at the time of the grant
of a stock appreciation right. Upon exercise, however, the participant will
realize ordinary income measured by the difference between the fair market value
of the common stock of the Company on the applicable date of grant and the fair
market value of such stock on the date of exercise. The Company will be entitled
to a corresponding deduction in the year of exercise.

A participant who has been granted a restricted stock award will not
realize taxable income at the time of grant, and the Company will not be
entitled to a deduction at that time, assuming that the restrictions constitute
a substantial risk of forfeiture for Federal income tax purposes. Upon the
vesting of shares subject to an award, the participant will realize ordinary
income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at such time,
and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Dividends paid to
the participant during the restriction period will also be compensation income
to the participant and deductible as such by the Company. The participant may
elect to be taxed at the time of grant of a restricted stock award on the then
fair market value of the shares, in which case (i) the Company will be entitled
to a deduction at the same time and in the same amount, (ii) dividends paid to
such holder during the restriction period will be taxable as dividends to such
holder and not deductible by the Company, and (iii) there will be no further tax
consequences when the restrictions lapse. If a participant who has made such an
election subsequently forfeits the shares, he will not be entitled to any
deduction or loss. The Company, however, will be required to include as ordinary
income the lesser of the fair market value of the forfeited shares or the amount
of the deduction originally claimed with respect to the shares.

A participant who has been granted performance units will not realize
taxable income at the time of grant, and the Company will not be entitled to a
deduction at that time. The participant will have compensation income at the
time of payment, and the Company will have a corresponding deduction.

PAYMENT OF OPTION PRICE WITH SHARES OF COMPANY COMMON STOCK

Under proposed regulations, the exercise of an incentive stock option
through the exchange of previously acquired stock will generally be treated as a
non-taxable, like-kind exchange as to the number of shares given up and the
identical number of shares received under the option. That number of shares will
take the same basis and, for capital gains purposes, the same holding period as
the shares which are given up. However, such holding period will not be credited
for purposes of the one-year holding period required for the new shares to
receive incentive stock option treatment. Shares received upon such an exchange
which are in excess of the number of shares given up will have a new holding
period and, if cash was paid in addition to the shares exchanged, a basis equal
to the amount of such cash. If a disqualifying disposition (a disposition before
the end of the applicable holding period) occurs with respect to any of the
shares received from the exchange, it will be treated as a disqualifying
disposition of the shares with the lowest basis.

If the exercise price of an incentive stock option is paid with shares
of stock of the Company acquired through a prior exercise of an incentive stock
option, gain will be realized on the shares given up (and will be taxed as
ordinary income) if those shares have not been held for the minimum holding
period (two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of
transfer), but the exchange will not affect the tax treatment, as described in
the immediately preceding paragraph, of the shares received.

The exercise of a non-qualified stock option through the delivery of
previously acquired stock will generally be treated as a non-taxable, like-kind
exchange as to the number of shares surrendered and the identical number of
shares received under the option. That number of shares will take the same basis
and, for capital gains purposes, the same holding period as the shares which are
given up. The value of the shares received upon such an exchange which are in
excess of the number given up will be taxed to the participant at the time of
the exercise as ordinary income. The excess shares will have a new holding
period for capital gains purposes and a basis equal to the value of such shares
determined at the time of exercise.

WITHHOLDING OF TAXES

The Company may deduct, from any payment under the Plan, the amount of
any tax required by law to be withheld with respect to such payment, or may
require the participant to pay such amount to the Company prior to, and as a
condition of, making such payment. The use of shares of Company common stock to
satisfy any withholding requirement will be treated, for federal income tax
purposes, as a sale of such shares for an amount equal to the fair market value
of the stock on the date when the amount of taxes to be withheld is determined.
If previously owned shares of Company common stock are delivered by a
participant to satisfy a withholding requirement, the disposition of such shares
may result in the recognition of gain or loss by the participant for tax
purposes.

LIMITATIONS ON DEDUCTIONS

The Company income tax deduction for awards under the Plan may be
unavailable if (i) the award is in excess of reasonable compensation, (ii) the
award fails to satisfy the requirements of section 162(m) of the Code that
compensation in excess of $1 million be performance-based, and (iii) the award
constitutes an excess parachute payment under section 280G of the Code.

OTHER INFORMATION

Approval of the Plan will require the affirmative vote of the holders
of shares having a majority of the votes present in person or represented by
proxy at the Annual Meeting, provided a quorum is present, with the result that
shares which abstain from voting would count as votes against the Plan and
broker non-votes would have no effect on the outcome.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THIS
PROPOSAL.
