Section 414(o).
(22) "Self-Employed Individual" means an individual who has Earned

(25) "Trust Fund" means the property held in the Trust by the

the Employer to administer the Trust in accordance with the Trust
Agreement.
(27) "Years of Service for Vesting" means, with respect to any
Employee, the number of whole years of his periods of service with
the Employer or a Related Employer (the elapsed time method to
compute vesting service), subject to any exclusions elected by the
Employer in Section 1.07(b). An Employee will receive credit for
the aggregate of all time period(s) commencing with the Employee's
Employment Commencement Date and ending on the date a break in
service begins, unless any such years are excluded by Section
1.07(b). An Employee will also receive credit for any period of
severance of less than 12 consecutive months. Fractional periods
of a year will be expressed in terms of days.
4
In the case of a Participant who has 5 consecutive 1-year
breaks in service, all years of service after such breaks in
service will be disregarded for the purpose of vesting the
Employer-derived account balance that accrued before such
breaks, but both pre-break and post-break service will count
for the purposes of vesting the Employer-derived account
balance that accrues after such breaks. Both accounts will
share in the earnings and losses of the fund.
In the case of a Participant who does not have 5 consecutive
1-year breaks in service, both the pre-break and post-break
service will count in vesting both the pre-break and
post-break employer-derived account balance.
A break in service is a period of severance of at least 12
consecutive months. Period of severance is a continuous
period of time during which the Employee is not employed by
the Employer. Such period begins on the date the Employee
retires, quits or is discharged, or if earlier, the 12 month
anniversary of the date on which the Employee was otherwise
first absent from service.
In the case of an individual who is absent from work for
maternity or paternity reasons, the 12-consecutive month
period beginning on the first anniversary of the first date
of such absence shall not constitute a break in service. For
purposes of this paragraph, an absence from work for
maternity or paternity reasons means an absence (1) by reason
of the pregnancy of the individual, (2) by reason of the
birth of a child of the individual, (3) by reason of the
placement of a child with the individual in connection with
the adoption of such child by such individual, or (4) for
purposes of caring for such child for a period beginning
immediately following such birth or placement.
If the Plan maintained by the Employer is the plan of a
predecessor employer, an Employee's Years of Service for
Vesting shall include years of service with such predecessor
employer. In any case in which the Plan maintained by the
Employer is not the plan maintained by a predecessor
employer, service for such predecessor shall be treated as
service for the Employer to the extent provided in Section
1.08.
(b) Pronouns used in the Plan are in the masculine gender but
include the feminine gender unless the context clearly indicates
otherwise.
Article 3. Participation.
3.01. Date of Participation. An eligible Employee (as set forth in Section
1.03(a)) will become a Participant in the Plan on the first Entry Date after
which he becomes an eligible Employee if he has filed an election pursuant to
Section 4.01. If the eligible Employee does not file an election pursuant to
Section 4.01 prior to his first Entry Date, then the eligible Employee will
become a Participant in the Plan as of the first day of a Plan Year for which he
has filed an election.
3.02. Resumption of Participation Following Re employment. If a Participant
ceases to be an Employee and thereafter returns to the employ of the Employer he
will again become a Participant as of an Entry Date following the date on which
he completes an Hour of Service for the Employer following his re employment, if
he is an eligible Employee as defined in Section 1.03(a), and has filed an
election pursuant to Section 4.01.
5
3.03. Cessation or Resumption of Participation Following a Chance in Status. If
any Participant continues in the employ of the Employer or Related Employer but
ceases to be an eligible Employee as defined in Section 1.03(a), the individual
shall continue to be a Participant until the entire amount of his benefit is
distributed; however, the individual shall not be entitled to make Deferral
Contributions or receive an allocation of Matching contributions during the
period that he is not an eligible Employee. Such Participant shall continue to
receive credit for service completed during the period for purposes of
determining his vested interest in his Accounts. In the event that the
individual subsequently again becomes an eligible Employee, the individual shall
resume full participation in accordance with Section 3.01.
Article 4. Contributions.
4.01. Deferral Contributions. Each Participant may elect to execute a salary
reduction agreement with the Employer to reduce his Compensation by a specified
percentage not exceeding the percentage set forth in Section 1.05(a) and equal
to a whole number multiple of one (1) percent. Such agreement shall become
effective on the first day of the period as set forth in the Participant's
election. The election will be effective to defer Compensation relating to all
services performed in a Plan Year subsequent to the filing of such an election.
An election once made will remain in effect until a new election is made. A new
election will be effective as of the first day of the following Plan Year and
will apply only to Compensation payable with respect to services rendered after
such date. Amounts credited to a Participant's account prior to the effective
date of any new election will not be affected and will be paid in accordance
with that prior election. The Employer shall credit an amount to the account
maintained on behalf of the Participant corresponding to the amount of said
reduction. Under no circumstances may a salary reduction agreement be adopted
retroactively. A Participant may not revoke a salary reduction agreement for a
Plan Year during that year.
4.02. Matching Contributions. If so provided by the Employer in Section 1.05(b),
the Employer shall make a Matching Contribution to be credited to the account
maintained on behalf of each Participant who had Deferral Contributions made on
his behalf during the year and who meets the requirement, if any, of Section
1.05(b)(3). The amount of the Matching Contribution shall be determined in
accordance with Section 1.05(b).
4.03. Time of Making Employer Contributions. The Employer will from time to time
make a transfer of assets to the Trustee for each Plan Year. The Employer shall
provide the Trustee with information on the amount to be credited to the
separate account of each Participant maintained under the Trust.
Article 5. Participants' Accounts.
5.01. Individual Accounts. The Administrator will establish and maintain an
Account for each Participant which will reflect Matching and Deferral
Contributions credited to the Account on behalf of the Participant and earnings,
expenses, gains and losses credited thereto, and deemed investments made with
amounts in the Participant's Account. The Administrator will establish and
maintain such other accounts and records as it decides in its discretion to be
reasonably required or appropriate in order to discharge its duties under the
Plan. Participants will be furnished statements of their Account values at least
once each Plan Year.
6
Article 6. Investment of Contributions.
6.01. Manner of Investment. All amounts credited to the Accounts of Participants
shall be treated as though invested and reinvested only in eligible investments
selected by the Employer in Section 1.11(b).
6.02. Investment Decisions. Investments in which the Accounts of Participants
shall be treated as invested and reinvested shall be directed by the Employer or
by each Participant, or, both, in accordance with the Employer's election in
Section 1.11(a)
(a) All dividends, interest, gains and distributions of any nature earned
in respect of Fund Shares in which the Account is treated as investing
shall be credited to the Account as though reinvested in additional shares
of that Fidelity Fund.
(b) Expenses attributable to the acquisition of investments shall be
charged to the Account of the Participant for which such investment is
made.
Article 7. Right to Benefits.
7.01. Normal or Early Retirement. If provided by the Employer in Section
1.07(d), each Participant who attains his Normal Retirement Age or Early
Retirement Age will have a nonforfeitable interest in his Account in accordance
with the vesting schedule elected in Section 1.07. If a Participant retires on
or after attainment of Normal or Early Retirement Age, such retirement is
referred to as a normal retirement. On or after his normal retirement, the
balance of the Participant's Account, plus any amounts thereafter credited to
his Account, subject to the provisions of Section 7.06, will be distributed to
him in accordance with Article 8.
If provided by the Employer in Section 1.06, a Participant who separates
from service before satisfying the age requirements for early retirement, but
has satisfied the service requirement will be entitled to the distribution of
his Account, subject to the provisions of Section 7.06, in accordance with
Article 8, upon satisfaction of such age requirement.
7.02. Death. If a Participant dies before the distribution of his Account has
commenced, or before such distribution has been completed, his Account shall
become vested in accordance with the vesting schedule elected in Section 1.07
and his designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries will be entitled to receive the
balance or remaining balance of his Account, plus any amounts thereafter
credited to his Account, subject to the provisions of Section 7.06. Distribution
to the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries will be made in accordance with Article 8.
A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries, or change any
prior designation of Beneficiary or Beneficiaries by giving notice to the
Administrator on a form designated by the Administrator. If more than one person
is designated as the Beneficiary, their respective interests shall be as
indicated on the designation form.
7
A copy of the death notice or other sufficient documentation must be filed
with and approved by the Administrator. If upon the death of the Participant
there is, in the opinion of the Administrator, no designated Beneficiary for
part or all of the Participant's Account, such amount will be paid to his
surviving spouse or, if none, to his estate (such spouse or estate shall be
deemed to be the Beneficiary for purposes of the Plan). If a Beneficiary dies
after benefits to such Beneficiary have commenced, but before they have been
completed, and, in the opinion of the Administrator, no person has been
designated to receive such remaining benefits, then such benefits shall be paid
to the deceased Beneficiary's estate.
7.03. Other Termination of Employment. If provided by the Employer in Section
1.06, if a Participant terminates his employment for any reason other than death
or normal retirement, he will be entitled to a termination benefit equal to (i)
the vested percentage(s) of the value of the Matching Contributions to his
Account, as adjusted for income, expense, gain, or loss, such percentage(s)
determined in accordance with the vesting schedule(s) selected by the Employer
in Section 1.07, and (ii) the value of the Deferral Contributions to his Account
as adjusted for income, expense, gain or loss. The amount payable under this
Section 7.03 will be subject to the provisions of Section 7.06 and will be
distributed in accordance with Article 8.
7.04. Separate Account. If a distribution from a Participant's Account has been
made to him at a time when he has a nonforfeitable right to less than 100
percent of his Account, the vesting schedule in Section 1.07 will thereafter
apply only to amounts in his Account attributable to Matching Contributions
allocated after such distribution. The balance of his Account immediately after
such distribution will be transferred to a separate account which will be
maintained for the purpose of determining his interest therein according to the
following provisions.
At any relevant time prior to a forfeiture of any portion thereof under
Section 7.05, a Participant's nonforfeitable interest in his Account held in a
separate account described in the preceding paragraph will be equal to P(AB +
(RxD))-(RxD), where P is the nonforfeitable percentage at the relevant time
determined under Section 7.05; AR is the account balance of the separate account
at the relevant time; D is the amount of the distribution; and R is the ratio of
the account balance at the relevant time to the account balance after
distribution. Following a forfeiture of any portion of such separate account
under Section 7.05 below, any balance in the Participant's separate account will
remain fully vested and nonforfeitable.
7.05. Forfeitures. If a Participant terminates his employment, any portion of
his Account (including any amounts credited after his termination of employment)
not payable to him under Section 7.03 will be forfeited by him. For purposes of
this paragraph, if the value of a Participant's vested account balance is zero,
the Participant shall be deemed to have received a distribution of his vested
interest immediately following termination of employment. Such forfeitures will
be applied to reduce the contributions of the Employer under the Plan (or
administrative expenses of the Plan).
8
7.06. Adiustment for Investment Experience. If any distribution under this
Article 7 is not made in a single payment, the amount remaining in the Account
after the distribution will be subject to adjustment until distributed to
reflect the income and gain or loss on the investments in which such amount is
treated as invested and any expenses properly charged under the Plan and Trust
to such amounts.
7.07. Hardship Withdrawals. Subject to the provisions of Article 8, a
Participant shall not be permitted to withdraw his Account (and earnings
thereon) prior to retirement or termination of employment, except if permitted
under Section 1.09, a Participant may apply to the Administrator to withdraw
some or all of his Account if such withdrawal is made on account of a hardship
as determined by the Employer.
Article 8. Distribution of Benefits Payable after Termination of Service.
8.01. Distribution of Benefits to Participants and Beneficiaries.
(a) Distributions under the Plan to a Participant or to the Beneficiary of
the Participant shall be made in a lump sum in cash or, if elected by the
Employer in Section 1.10 and specified in the Participant's deferral election,
under a systematic withdrawal plan (installment(s))not exceeding 10 years upon
retirement, death or other termination of employment.
(b) Distributions under a systematic withdrawal plan must be made in
substantially equal annual, or more frequent, installments, in cash, over a
period certain which does not extend 10 years. The period certain specified in a
Participant's first deferral election specifying distribution under a systematic
withdrawal plan shall apply to all subsequent elections of distributions under a
systematic withdrawal plan made by the Participant.
8.02. Determination of Method of Distribution. The Participant will determine
the method of distribution of benefits to himself and the method of distribution
to his Beneficiary. Such determination will be made at the time the Participant
makes a deferral election. If the Participant does not determine the method of
distribution to him or his Beneficiary, the method shall be a lump sum.
8.03. Notice to Trustee. The Administrator will notify the Trustee in writing
whenever any Participant or Beneficiary is entitled to receive benefits under
the Plan. The Administrator's notice shall indicate the form, amount and
frequency of benefits that such Participant or Beneficiary shall receive.
8.04. Time of Distribution. In no event will distribution to a Participant be
made later than the date specified by the Participant in his salary reduction
agreement.
9
Article 9. Amendment and Termination.
9.01 Amendment by Employer. The Employer reserves the authority to amend the
Plan by filing with the Trustee an amended Adoption Agreement, executed by the
Employer only, on which said Employer has indicated a change or changes in
provisions previously elected by it. Such changes are to be effective on the
effective date of such amended Adoption Agreement. Any such change
notwithstanding, no Participant's Account shall be reduced by such change below
the amount to which the Participant would have been entitled if he had
voluntarily left the employ of the Employer immediately prior to the date of the
change. The Employer may from time to time make any amendment to the Plan that
may be necessary to satisfy the Code or ERISA. The Employer's board of directors
or other individual specified in the resolution adopting this Plan shall act on
behalf of the Employer for purposes of this Section 9.01.
9.02 Retroactive Amendments. An amendment made by the Employer in accordance
with Section 9.01 may be made effective on a date prior to the first day of the
Plan Year in which it is adopted if such amendment is necessary or appropriate
to enable the Plan and Trust to satisfy the applicable requirements of the Code
or ERISA or to conform the Plan to any change in federal law or to any
regulations or ruling thereunder. Any retroactive amendment by the Employer
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.01.
9.03. Termination. The Employer has adopted the Plan with the intention and
expectation that contributions will be continued indefinitely. However, said
Employer has no obligation or liability whatsoever to maintain the Plan for any
length of time and may discontinue contributions under the Plan or terminate the
Plan at any time by written notice delivered to the Trustee without any
liability hereunder for any such discontinuance or termination.
9.04. Distribution upon Termination of the Plan. Upon termination of the Plan,
no further Deferral Contributions or Matching Contributions shall be made under
the Plan, but Accounts of Participants maintained under the Plan at the time of
termination shall continue to be governed by the terms of the Plan until paid
out in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
Article 10. Miscellaneous.
10.01. Communication to Participants. The Plan will be communicated to all
Participants by the Employer promptly after the Plan is adopted.
10 02. Limitation of Rights. Neither the establishment of the Plan and the
Trust, nor any amendment thereof, nor the creation of any fund or account, nor
the payment of any benefits, will be construed as giving to any Participant or
other person any legal or equitable right against the Employer, Administrator or
Trustee, except as provided herein; and in no event will the terms of employment
or service of any Participant be modified or in any way affected hereby.
10.03. Nonalienability of Benefits. The benefits provided hereunder will not be
subject to alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of
any kind, either voluntarily or involuntarily, and any attempt to cause such
benefits to be so subjected will not be recognized, except to such extent as may
be required by law.
10
10 04. Facility to Payment. In the event the Administrator determines, on the
basis of medical reports or other evidence satisfactory to the Administrator,
that the recipient of any benefit payments under the Plan is incapable of
handling his affairs by reason of minority, illness, infirmity or other
incapacity, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to disburse such payments
to a person or institution designated by a court which has jurisdiction over
such recipient or a person or institution otherwise having the legal authority
under State law for the care and control of such recipient. The receipt by such
person or institution of any such payments shall be complete acquittance
therefore, and any such payment to the extent thereof, shall discharge the
liability of the Trust for the payment of benefits hereunder to such recipient.
10.05. Information between Employer and Trustee. The Employer agrees to furnish
the Trustee, and the Trustee agrees to furnish the Employer with such
information relating to the Plan and Trust as may be required by the other in
order to carry out their respective duties hereunder, including without
limitation information required under the Code or ERISA and any regulations
issued or forms adopted thereunder.
10.06. Notices. Any notice or other communication in connection with this Plan
shall be deemed delivered in writing if addressed as provided below and if
either actually delivered at said address or, in the case of a letter, three
business days shall have elapsed after the same shall have been deposited in the
United States mails, first-class postage prepaid and registered or certified:

the Adoption Agreement, to the attention of the person specified to receive
notice in the Adoption Agreement;
(b) If to the Trustee, to it at the address set forth in the Trust
Agreement;
or, in each case at such other address as the addressee shall have specified by
written notice delivered in accordance with the foregoing to the addressor's
then effective notice address.
10.07. Governing Law. The Plan and the accompanying Adoption Agreement will be
construed, administered and enforced according to ERISA, and to the extent not
preempted thereby, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Article 11. Plan Administration.
11.01. Powers and responsibilities of the Administrator. The Administrator has

Administrator shall exercise its authority in a nondiscriminatory manner so that
all persons similarly situated will receive substantially the same treatment.
11.03. Claims and Review Procedures.
(a) Claims Procedure. If any person believes he is being denied any rights

Administrator will notify such person of its decision in writing. Such
notification will contain (i) specific reasons for the denial, (ii)
specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions, (iii) a description of any
additional material or information necessary for such person to perfect
such claim and an explanation of why such material or information is
necessary, and (iv) information as to the steps to be taken if the person
wishes to submit a request for review. Such notification will be given
within 90 days after the claim is received by the Administrator (or within
180 days, if special circumstances require an extension of time for
processing the claim, and if written notice of such extension and
circumstances is given to such person within the initial 90-day period). If
such notification is not given within such period, the claim will be
considered denied as of the last day of such period and such person may
request a review of his claim.
(b) Review Procedure. Within 60 days after the date on which a person
receives a written notice of a denied claim (or, if applicable, within 60
days after the date on which such denial is considered to have occurred),

request with the Administrator for a review of his denied claim and of
pertinent documents and (ii) submit written issues and comments to the
Administrator. The Administrator will notify such person of its decision in
writing. Such notification will be written in a manner calculated to be
understood by such person and will contain specific reasons for the
decision as well as specific references to pertinent Plan provisions. The
decision on review will be made within 60 days after the request for review
is received by the Administrator (or within 120 days, if special
circumstances require an extension of time for processing the request, such
as an
12
election by the Administrator to hold a hearing, and if written notice of
such extension and circumstances is given to such person within the initial
60-day period). If the decision on review is not made within such period,
the claim will be considered denied.
11.04. Costs of Administration. Unless some or all costs and expenses are paid
by the Employer, all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal, accounting,
and employee communication fees) incurred by the Administrator and the Trustee
in administering the Plan and Trust will be paid first from the forfeitures (if
any) resulting under Section 7.05, then from the remaining Trust Fund. All such
costs and expenses paid from the Trust Fund will, unless allocable to the
Accounts of particular Participants, be charged against the Accounts of all
Participants on a prorata basis or in such other reasonable manner as may be

TRUST AGREEMENT,dated as of the 1st day of November 1994 between Fair, Isaac and
Company, Incorporated a Delaware corporation, having an office at 120 North
Redwood Dr., San Rafael, CA 94903 (the "Sponsor"), and FIDELITY MANAGEMENT TRUST
COMPANY, a Massachusetts trust company, having an office at 82 Devonshire
Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109 (the "Trustee").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Sponsor is the sponsor of the Fair, Isaac Supplemental
Retirement and Savings P1an (the "Plan"); and
WHEREAS, the Sponsor wishes to establish an irrevocable trust and to
contribute to the trust assets that shall be held therein, subject to the claims
of Sponsor's creditors in the event of Sponsor's Insolvency, as herein defined,
until paid to Plan participants and their beneficiaries in such manner and at
such times as specified in the Plan; and
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the sponsor that this Trust shall
constitute an unfunded arrangement and shall not affect the status of the Plan
as an unfunded plan maintained for the purpose of providing deferred
compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees
for purposes of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA"); and
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the Sponsor to make contributions to the
trust to provide itself with a source of funds to assist it in the meeting of
its liabilities under the Plan; and
WHEREAS, the trustee is willing to hold and invest the aforesaid plan
assets in trust among several investment options selected by the Sponsor; and
WHEREAS, the Sponsor wishes to have the Trustee perform certain ministerial
recordkeeping and administrative functions under the Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Employer or such other individual named in the Plan is the
Administrator of the plan; and
WHEREAS, the Trustee is willing to perform recordkeeping and administrative
services for the Plan if the services are purely ministerial in nature and are
provided within a framework of plan provisions, guidelines and interpretations
conveyed in writing to the Trustee by the Administrator.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth below, the Sponsor and the Trustee agree as
follows:
SECTION 1.
1.Trust.
(a) Establishment.
The Sponsor hereby establishes a trust (hereinafter the "Trust"), with the
Trustee. The Trust shall consist of an initial contribution of money or
other property acceptable to the Trustee in its sole discretion, made by
the Sponsor or transferred from a previous trustee under the Plan, such
additional sums of money as shall from time to time be delivered to the
Trustee under the Plan, all investments made therewith and proceeds
thereof, and all earnings and profits thereon, less the payments that are
made by the Trustee as provided herein, without distinction between
principal and income. The Trustee hereby accepts the Trust on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement. In accepting this Trust, the
Trustee shall be accountable for the assets received by it, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
(b) Grantor Trust
The Trust is intended to be a grantor trust, of which the Sponsor is the
grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I, subchapter J, chapter 1,
subtitle A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be
construed accordingly.
(c) Trust Assets.
The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon shall be held separate
and apart from other funds of the Sponsor and shall be used exclusively for
the uses and purposes of Plan participants and general creditors as herein
set forth. Plan participants and their beneficiaries shall have no
preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of
the Trust. Any rights created under the Plan and this Trust Agreement shall
be mere unsecured contractual rights of Plan participants and their
beneficiaries against the Sponsor. Any assets held by the Trust will be
subject to the claims of the Sponsor's general creditors under federal and
state law in the event of Insolvency, as defined in Section 13(a).
(d) Non-Assignment.
Benefit payments to Plan participants and their beneficiaries funded under
this Trust may not be anticipated, assigned (either at law or in equity),
alienated, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to attachment, garnishment,
levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process.
SECTION 2.
2. Payments to Sponsor.
Except as provided under Section 13, the Sponsor shall have no right to
retain or divert to others any of the Trust assets before all payment of
benefits have been made to the participants and their beneficiaries
pursuant to the terms of the Plan.
SECTION 3.
3. Disbursements.
(a) Directions from Administrator.
The Trustee shall disburse monies to the Sponsor for benefit payments in
the amounts that the Administrator directs from time to time in writing.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility to ascertain any direction's
compliance with the terms of the Plan or of any applicable law. The Trustee
shall not be responsible for making benefit payments to participants under
the Plan, nor shall the Trustee be responsible for any Social Security or
Federal, State or local income tax reporting or withholding with respect to
such Plan benefits.
(b) Limitations.
The Trustee shall not be required to make any disbursement in excess of the
net realizable value of the assets of the Trust at the time of the
disbursement. The Trustee shall not be required to make any disbursement in
cash unless the Administrator has provided a written direction as to the
assets to be converted to cash for the purpose of making the disbursement.
SECTION 4.
4. Investment of Trust.
(a) Selection of Investment Options.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the selection of investment
options under the Trust and shall not render investment advice to any
person in connection with the selection of such options.
(b) Available Investment Options.
In accordance with Section 1.14 of the Plan, the Sponsor shall direct the
Trustee as to the investment options available under the Trust provided,
however, that the Trustee shall not be considered a fiduciary with
investment discretion. The Sponsor may add additional investment options
with the consent of the Trustee and upon amendment of the Plan.
2
(c) Investment Direction.
In order to provide for an accumulation of assets comparable to the
contractual liabilities accruing under the Plan, the Sponsor may direct the
Trustee in writing to invest the assets held in the Trust to correspond to
the hypothetical investments made for Participants under the Plan. Such
directions may be made by Plan participants by use of the telephone
exchange system maintained for such purposes by the Trustee or its agent.
In the event that the Trustee falls to receive a proper direction from the
Sponsor or from Participants, the assets in question shall be invested in
Fidelity Retirement Money Market Fund, or such other fund designated by the
Sponsor for this purpose, until the Trustee receives a proper direction.
(d) Mutual Funds.
The Sponsor hereby acknowledges that it has received from the Trustee a
copy of the prospectus for each Mutual Fund selected by the Sponsor as a
Plan investment option. Trust investment in Mutual Funds shall be subject
to the following limitations:
(i) Execution of Purchases and Sales.
Purchase and sales of Mutual Funds (other than for Exchanges) shall be made
on the date on which the Trustee receives from the Sponsor in good order
all information and documentation necessary to accurately effect such
purchases and sales (or in the case of a purchase, the subsequent date on
which the Trustee has received a wire transfer of funds necessary to make
such purchase). Exchanges of Mutual Funds shall be made on the same
business day that the Trustee receives a proper direction if received
before 4:00 p.m. eastern time; if the direction is received after 4:00 p.m.
eastern time, the exchange shall be made the following day.
(ii) Voting.
At the time of mailing of notice of each annual or special stockholders'
meeting of any Mutual Fund, the Trustee shall send a copy of the notice and
all proxy solicitation materials to each Plan participant who has shares of
the Mutual Fund credited to the participants account, together with a
voting direction form for return to the Trustee or its designee. The
participant shall have the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in
which the Trustee is to vote the shares credited to the participant's
accounts (both vested and unvested). The Trustee shall vote the shares as
directed by the participant. The Trustee shall not vote shares for which it
has received no directions from the participant. During the participant
recordkeeping reconciliation ("transition") period, the Sponsor shall have
the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in which the Trustee is to
vote the shares of the Mutual Funds in the Trust. With respect to all
rights other than the right to vote, the Trustee shall follow the
directions of the participant and if no such directions are received, the
directions of the Sponsor. The Trustee shall have no duty to solicit
directions from participants or the Sponsor.

liable for the acts or omissions of the other with respect to the Trust.
(b) Acceptance.
When the successor trustee accepts its appointment under this Agreement,

days' notice in writing to the Trustee. On the date of the termination of
this Agreement, the Trustee shall forthwith transfer and deliver to such
individual or entity as the Sponsor shall designate, all cash and assets

all costs and expenses of the action or proceeding including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements.

SECTION 13.
13. Insolvency of Sponsor
(a) Trustee shall cease disbursement of funds for payment of benefits
to Plan participants and their beneficiaries if the Sponsor is Insolvent.
Sponsor shall be considered "Insolvent" for purposes of this Trust
Agreement if (i) Sponsor is unable to pay its debts as they become due or
(ii) Sponsor is subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor under the
United States Bankruptcy Code.
8
(b) All times during the continuance of this Trust, the principal and
income of the Trust shall be subject to claims of general creditors of the
Sponsor under federal and state Law as set forth below.
(i) The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of
the Sponsor shall have the duty to inform Trustee in writing of Sponsor's
Insolvency. If a person claiming to be a creditor of the Sponsor alleges in
writing to trustee that Sponsor has become Insolvent, Trustee shall
determine whether Sponsor is Insolvent and pending such determination,
Trustee shall discontinue disbursements for payment of benefits to Plan
participants or their beneficiaries.
(ii) Unless Trustee has actual knowledge of Sponsor's
Insolvency, or has received notice from Sponsor or a person claiming to be
a creditor alleging that Company is Insolvent, Trustee shall have no duty
to inquire whether Sponsor is Insolvent. Trustee may in all events rely on
such evidence concerning Sponsor's solvency as may be furnished to Trustee
and that provides Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a
determination concerning Sponsor's solvency.
(iii) If any time Trustee has determined that Sponsor is
Insolvent, Trustee shall discontinue disbursements for payments to Plan
participants or their beneficiaries and shall hold the assets of the Trust
for the benefit of Sponsor's general creditors. Nothing in this Trust
Agreement shall in any way diminish any rights of Plan participants or
their beneficiaries to pursue their rights as general creditors of Sponsor
with respect to benefits due under the Plan or otherwise.
(iv) Trustee shall resume disbursement for the payment of
benefits to Plan participants or their beneficiaries in accordance with
Section 2 of this Trust Agreement only after Trustee has determined that
Sponsor is not Insolvent (or is no longer Insolvent).

the payment of benefits from the Trust pursuant to (a) hereof and
subsequently resumes such payments, the first payment following such
discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount of all payments due to
Plan participants or their beneficiaries under the terms of the Plan for
the period of such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of any
payments made to Plan participants or their beneficiaries by Sponsor in
lieu of the payments provided for hereunder during any such period of
discontinuance.
