in its entirety the Cardinal Health, Inc. Profit Sharing and Retirement Savings
Plan, generally effective as of July 1, 1998, unless otherwise stated herein.

- -  Comprehensive Reimbursement Consultants,           -  CRC 401(k) Retirement
   Inc. ("CRC")                                          Plan



         The Employer intends that the Plan be qualified under Section 401(a) of
the Code, with a cash or deferred arrangement qualified under Section 401(k) of
the Code and a trust exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code.
Pursuant to the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(27), the Employer intends
that the Plan be a profit sharing plan. The provisions of this amended and
restated Plan shall apply solely to an Employee whose employment with the
Employer terminates on or after the Effective Date. An Employee whose employment
with the Employer terminates prior to the Effective Date shall be entitled to a
benefit, if any, as determined under the provisions of the Plan or the
appropriate Merging Plan in effect on the date his employment terminated.

                           Contributions) to a plan of deferred compensation to
                           the extent the contributions are not included in the
                           gross income of the Employee for the taxable year in
                           which contributed, on behalf of an Employee to a
                           simplified employee pension plan to the extent such
                           contributions are excludible from the Employee's
                           gross income, and any distributions from a plan of
                           deferred compensation, regardless of whether such
                           amounts are includible in the gross income of the
                           Employee when distributed.

                  (ii)     Amounts realized from the exercise of a non-qualified
                           stock option, or when restricted stock (or property)
                           held by an Employee either becomes freely
                           transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial
                           risk of forfeiture.

                  (iii)    Amounts realized from the sale, exchange, or other
                           disposition of stock acquired under a qualified stock
                           option.

                  (iv)     Moving allowances, automobile allowances, tuition
                           reimbursement, financial/tax planning reimbursement,
                           other extraordinary compensation, including tax
                           "gross-up" payments, and imputed income from other
                           employer-provided benefits.

                  (v)      Other amounts that receive special tax benefits, such
                           as premiums for group term life insurance or
                           contributions made by an Employer (whether or not
                           under salary reduction agreement) towards the
                           purchase of an annuity contract described in Code
                           Section 403(b) (whether or not the contributions are
                           excludible from the gross income of the Employee),
                           other than Elective Contributions.

                  (vi)     Such additional exclusions that may apply to a
                           particular QSLOB hereunder, as set forth in the
                           applicable Appendix hereto.

                  Any reference in this Plan to Compensation is a reference to
         the definition in this Section 1.08, unless the Plan reference
         specifies a modification to this definition. The Committee will take
         into account only Compensation actually paid for the relevant period.

         B.       COMPENSATION LIMIT. In addition to other applicable
                  limitations set forth in the Plan, and notwithstanding any
                  other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the annual
                  Compensation of each Employee taken into account under the
                  Plan shall not exceed the "COMPENSATION LIMITATION." The
                  Compensation Limitation as of the Effective Date is $160,000,
                  and is subject to cost of living adjustments in future years
                  in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(17)(B). Any such cost
                  of living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to
                  any period, not exceeding 12 months, over which Compensation
                  is determined (the "DETERMINATION PERIOD") beginning in such
                  calendar year. If a Determination Period consists of fewer
                  than 12 months, the Compensation Limitation will be multiplied
                  by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months
                  in the Determination Period, and the denominator of which is
                  12. Any reference in this Plan to the limitation under Section
                  401(a)(17) of the Code shall mean the Compensation Limitation
                  set forth in this provision.

   11


         C.       COMPENSATION - SPECIAL RULES. For purposes of determining
                  whether the Plan discriminates in favor of Highly Compensated
                  Employees, the Employer may elect to use an alternate
                  nondiscriminatory definition of Compensation, in accordance
                  with the requirements of Code Section 414(s) and the Treasury
                  Regulations promulgated thereunder. In determining
                  Compensation (for purposes of determining whether the Plan
                  discriminates in favor of Highly Compensated Employees), the
                  Employer may elect to include as Compensation all Elective
                  Contributions made by the Employer on behalf of Employees. The
                  Employer's election to include Elective Contributions must be
                  consistent and uniform with respect to Employees and all plans
                  of the Employer for any particular Plan Year. The Employer may
                  make this election to include Elective Contributions for
                  nondiscrimination testing purposes, irrespective of whether
                  subsection A includes Elective Contributions in the general
                  definition of Compensation applicable to the Plan.

         SECTION 1.09. COMPENSATION DEFERRAL ACCOUNT. That portion of a
Participant's Account credited with Compensation Deferral Contributions under
Section 3.04, and adjustments relating thereto.

         SECTION 1.10. DISABILITY. A physical or mental condition that has
qualified the Employee for benefits under the Employer's long-term disability
plan and will prevent the Employee from satisfactorily performing his usual
duties for the Employer or the duties of such other position or job that the
Employer makes available to him and for which such Employee is qualified by
reason of his training, education or experience, for an indefinite period which
the Committee considers will be of long-continued duration. The Plan considers a
Participant disabled on the date that the Participant has satisfied the
requirements for disability benefits under the applicable long-term disability
plan. If the Participant is not eligible for long-term disability benefits, the
Participant shall be considered disabled upon qualifying for Social Security
disability benefits.

         SECTION 1.11. EFFECTIVE DATE. July 1, 1998, the date on which the
provisions of this amended and restated Plan become effective, except as
otherwise provided herein.

Employee who may be excluded from participation pursuant to Code Section

which does not expressly provide for participation in this Plan by Employees
covered thereunder, (b) an Employee of PCI or a subsidiary of PCI who resides
and works in Puerto Rico, or (c) an Employee of the Company or of Owen
classified as a "PRN" or on-call Employee. An Eligible Employee may become a
Participant in the Plan pursuant to the requirements of Article II.

         SECTION 1.13. EMPLOYEE. Any person who, on or after the Effective Date,
is receiving remuneration for personal services rendered to the Employer (or any
other employer required to be aggregated with the Employer under Sections
414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code) as a common law employee (or who would be
receiving such remuneration except for an authorized leave of absence). The term
shall not include any individual providing services to an Employer as a
consultant, independent contractor or Leased Employee deemed to be an employee
of any employer described in the previous sentence, as provided in Sections
414(n) and (o) of the Code, nor any person employed by the Employer solely as a
Director. An individual excluded from participation by reason of independent
contractor or Leased Employee status, if determined by the Company or in
accordance with law to be a common law employee, shall be recharacterized as an
Employee under the Plan as of the date of such determination,

   12


unless an earlier date is necessary to preserve the tax qualified status of the
Plan. Notwithstanding such general recharacterization, such person shall not be
considered an Eligible Employee for purposes of Plan participation, except and
to the extent necessary to preserve the tax qualified status of the Plan.

         SECTION 1.14. EMPLOYER(S). The Company and any Related Employer which
shall ratify and adopt this Plan in a manner satisfactory to, and with the
consent of, Cardinal Health, Inc., and which have adopted this Plan as listed on

or the Company to take any action, such action shall be considered properly
authorized if taken by the Board, the Chairman of the Board, any committee of
the Board, or by the Committee for the Plan in accordance with its procedures
under Section 10.03 hereof.

         SECTION 1.15. ENTRY DATE. The date as of which an Eligible Employee

Hours of Service.

         SECTION 1.16. ERISA. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended, or as it may be amended from time to time.

         SECTION 1.17. FORMER PARTICIPANT. A Participant who has transferred to
a classification of Employees ineligible to participate in the Plan, or a
Participant whose employment with the Employer has terminated but who has a
vested Account balance under the Plan that has not been paid in full and,
therefore, is continuing to participate in the allocation of Trust Fund Income.

         SECTION 1.18. HIGHLY COMPENSATED EMPLOYEE. Effective for Plan Years
beginning on or after January 1, 1997, any Employee who:

         A.       at any time during the current Plan Year or the preceding Plan
                  Year was a five percent owner of the Employer as defined in
                  Code Section 416(i); or

         B.       for the preceding Plan Year:

                  (i)      received more than $80,000 in annual Compensation
                           from the Employer (or such higher amount as adjusted
                           pursuant to Section 414(q)(1) of the Code); and

                  (ii)     was in the top 20% of Employees when ranked on the
                           basis of Compensation for the prior Plan Year.

         Highly Compensated Employees include highly compensated former
Employees. A former Employee will be treated as a Highly Compensated Employee if
such Employee separated from Service (or was deemed to have separated) prior to
the current or preceding Plan Year, performs no Service during such Plan Year,
and was a Highly Compensated Employee for either the separation year or any Plan
Year ending on or after the Employee's 55th birthday, in accordance with the
rules for determining Highly Compensated Employee status in effect for that
determination year and in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations and
IRS Notice 97-45.

         For purposes of this Section, "Compensation" means Compensation as
defined in Section 1.08; and Related Employers to the Employer shall be treated
as a single employer with the Employer. The determination of who is Highly
Compensated shall be made in accordance with Code Section 414(q) and applicable
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

   13


         SECTION 1.19. INCOME. The net gain or loss of the Trust Fund from
investments, as reflected by interest payments, dividends, realized and
unrealized gains and losses on securities, other investment transactions and
expenses paid from the Trust Fund. In determining the Income of the Trust Fund
as of any date, assets shall be valued on the basis of their then fair market
value.

related persons determined in accordance with Section 414(n)(6) of the Code) on
a substantially full time basis for a period of at least one year, which
services are performed under the primary direction or control of the Employer.
Contributions or benefits provided to a Leased Employee by the Leasing
Organization that are attributable to services performed for the Employer shall
be treated as provided by the Employer. If applicable, Compensation under
Section 1.08 includes compensation from the Leasing Organization which is
attributable to services performed for the Employer.

         A Leased Employee shall not be considered an Employee of the Employer
if (a) such employee is covered by a money purchase pension plan providing: (i)
a nonintegrated employer contribution rate of at least ten percent of
compensation, as defined in Section 415(c)(3) of the Code, but including amounts
contributed pursuant to a salary reduction agreement that are excludible from

or Section 403(b) of the Code, (ii) immediate participation, and (iii) full and

Service, applying the coverage test of Code Section 410(b) (except to the extent
that the Plan employs the qualified separate line of business ("QSLOB") rules of

         SECTION 1.37. SERVICE AND BREAK IN SERVICE DEFINITIONS.

         A.       ABSENCE FROM SERVICE. A severance or absence from service for
                  any reason other than a quit, discharge, retirement or death,
                  such as vacation, holiday, sickness, or layoff.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an absence due to an
                  "AUTHORIZED LEAVE OF ABSENCE," or

   15

                  qualified military service in accordance with Code Section
                  414(u) shall not constitute an Absence from Service.

         B.       AUTHORIZED LEAVE OF ABSENCE. An Authorized Leave of Absence
                  shall mean:

                  (i)      a leave of absence, with or without pay, granted by
                           the Employer in writing under a uniform,
                           nondiscriminatory policy applicable to all Employees;
                           however, such absence shall constitute an Authorized
                           Leave of Absence only to the extent that applicable
                           federal laws and regulations permit service credit to
                           be given for such leave of absence;

                  (ii)     a leave of absence due to service in the Armed Forces
                           of the United States to the extent required by Code
                           Section 414(u); or

                  (iii)    a leave of absence authorized under the Family
                           and Medical Leave Act, but only to the extent that
                           such Act requires that service credit be given for
                           such period.

         C.       BREAK IN SERVICE. Each 12 consecutive months in the period
                  commencing on the earlier of (i) the date on which the
                  Employee quits, is discharged, retires or dies, or (ii) the
                  first anniversary of the first day of any Absence from
                  Service, and ending on the date the Employee is again credited
                  with an Hour of Service for the performance of duties for the
                  Employer. If an Employee is on maternity or paternity leave,
                  and the absence continues beyond the first anniversary of such
                  absence, the Employee's Break in Service will commence no
                  earlier than the second anniversary of such absence. The
                  period between the first and second anniversaries of the first
                  date of a maternity or paternity leave is not part of either a
                  Period of Service or a Break in Service. The Committee shall
                  consider an Employee on maternity or paternity leave if the
                  Employee's absence is due to the Employee's pregnancy, the
                  birth of the Employee's child, the placement with the Employee
                  of an adopted child, or the care of the Employee's child
                  immediately following the child's birth or placement.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such maternity or paternity
                  leave constitutes an Authorized Leave of Absence, such leave
                  shall not be considered part of a Break in Service.

                  In the case of a Part-time Employee, however, a Break in
                  Service shall mean a Plan Year during which such Part-time
                  Employee completed fewer than 501 Hours of Service.

         D.       ELIGIBILITY COMPUTATION PERIOD. With respect to those Eligible
                  Employees who are Part-time Employees, the 12 consecutive
                  month period used to measure Hours of Service for purposes of
                  eligibility to begin and maintain participation in the Plan.

                  (i)      "INITIAL ELIGIBILITY COMPUTATION PERIOD" shall mean,
                           for any such Employee, the 12 consecutive month
                           period which begins on the Employee's Employment
                           Commencement Date or Re-employment Commencement Date.

                  (ii)     "SUBSEQUENT ELIGIBILITY COMPUTATION PERIOD" shall
                           mean, for any such Employee, the Plan Year that
                           begins within the Initial Eligibility Computation
                           Period, and succeeding Plan Years.

         E.       EMPLOYMENT COMMENCEMENT DATE. The date upon which an Employee
                  first performs an Hour of Service for the Employer.

   16

         F.       HOUR OF SERVICE. Hour of Service shall mean:

                  (i)      Each Hour of Service for which the Employer, either
                           directly or indirectly, pays an Employee, or for
                           which the Employee is entitled to payment, for the
                           performance of duties during the Plan Year. The
                           Committee shall credit Hours of Service under this
                           subparagraph (i) to the Employee for the Plan Year in
                           which the Employee performs the duties, irrespective
                           of when paid;

                  (ii)     Each Hour of Service for back pay, irrespective of
                           mitigation of damages, to which the Employer has
                           agreed or for which the Employee has received an
                           award. The Committee shall credit Hours of Service
                           under this subparagraph (ii) to the Employee for the
                           Plan Year(s) to which the award or the agreement
                           pertains rather than for the Plan Year in which the
                           award, agreement or payment is made; and

                  (iii)    Each Hour of Service for which the Employer, either
                           directly or indirectly, pays an Employee, or for
                           which the Employee is entitled to payment
                           (irrespective of whether the employment relationship
                           is terminated), for reasons other than for the
                           performance of duties during a Plan Year, such as
                           leave of absence, vacation, holiday, sick leave,
                           illness, incapacity (including disability), layoff,
                           jury duty or military duty. The Committee shall not
                           credit more than 501 Hours of Service under this
                           subparagraph (iii) to an Employee on account of any
                           single continuous period during which the Employee
                           does not perform any duties (whether or not such
                           period occurs during a single Plan Year). The
                           Committee shall credit Hours of Service under this
                           subparagraph (iii) in accordance with the rules of
                           paragraphs (b) and (c) of Labor Reg. Section
                           2530.200b-2, which the Plan by this reference
                           specifically incorporates in full within this
                           subparagraph (iii).

                           The Committee shall not credit an Hour of Service
                  under more than one of the subparagraphs. Furthermore, if the
                  Committee is to credit Hours of Service to an Employee for the
                  12-month period beginning with the Employee's Employment
                  Commencement Date or with an anniversary of such date, then
                  the 12-month period shall be substituted for the term "Plan
                  Year" wherever the latter term appears in this Section. The
                  Committee shall resolve any ambiguity with respect to the
                  crediting of an Hour of Service in favor of the Employee.

                           The Committee shall credit Part-time Employees with
                  Hours of Service on the basis of the "actual" method. For
                  purposes of the Plan, "actual" method means the determination
                  of Hours of Service from records of hours worked and hours for
                  which the Employer makes payment or for which payment is due
                  from the Employer.

                           Hours of Service will be credited for employment with
                  other members of an affiliated service group (under Code
                  Section 414(m)), a controlled group of corporations (under
                  Code Section 414(b)), or a group of trades or businesses under
                  common control (under Code Section 414(c)) of which the
                  adopting Employer is a member, and any other entity required
                  to be aggregated with the Employer pursuant to Code Section
                  414(o) and the regulations thereunder. Hours of Service will
                  also be credited for any individual considered an Employee for
                  purposes of this Plan under Code Section 414(n) or Code
                  Section 414(o) and the regulations thereunder.

   17

                           Solely for purposes of determining whether a
                  Part-time Employee incurs a Break in Service under any
                  provision of this Plan, the Committee shall credit Hours of
                  Service during an Employee's unpaid absence period due to
                  maternity or paternity leave. The Committee shall consider an
                  Employee on maternity or paternity leave if the Employee's
                  absence is due to the Employee's pregnancy, the birth of the
                  Employee's child, the placement with the Employee of an
                  adopted child, or the care of the Employee's child immediately
                  following the child's birth or placement. The Committee shall
                  credit Hours of Service that the Part-time Employee would
                  receive if he were paid during the absence period, or if the
                  Committee cannot determine the number of Hours of Service the
                  Part-time Employee would receive, on the basis of eight hours
                  per day during the absence period. The Committee shall credit
                  only the number of Hours of Service (up to 501 Hours of
                  Service) necessary to prevent a Part-time Employee's Break in
                  Service. The Committee shall credit all Hours of Service
                  described in this paragraph to the computation period in which
                  the absence period begins or, if the Part-time Employee does
                  not need these Hours of Service to prevent a Break in Service
                  in the computation period in which his or her absence period
                  begins, the Committee shall credit these Hours of Service to
                  the immediately following computation period.

         G.       PERIOD OF SERVICE. The period of Service commencing on an
                  Employee's Employment Commencement Date or Re-employment
                  Commencement Date, whichever is applicable, and ending on the
                  Employee's Severance from Service Date. Notwithstanding
                  anything else to the contrary, a Period of Service will
                  include (i) any Period of Severance resulting from a quit,
                  discharge, or retirement if within 12 months of his Severance
                  from Service Date, the Employee is credited with an Hour of
                  Service for the performance of duties for the Employer, (ii)
                  any Period of Severance if the Employee quits, is discharged,
                  or retires during an Absence from Service of less than 12
                  months and is then credited with an Hour of Service within 12
                  months of the date on which the Absence from Service began,
                  and (iii) any other period of Service as defined in subsection
                  K below.

         H.       PERIOD OF SEVERANCE. The period commencing on any Severance
                  from Service Date and ending on the date an Employee is again
                  credited with an Hour of Service for the performance of duties
                  for the Employer.

         I.       RE-EMPLOYMENT COMMENCEMENT DATE. The date upon which an
                  Employee first performs an Hour of Service for the Employer
                  following a Break in Service.

         J.       SEPARATION FROM SERVICE. A separation from Service with the
                  Employer maintaining this Plan and any Related Employers such
                  that the Employee no longer has an employment relationship
                  with the Employer or Related Employers.

         K.       SERVICE. Any period of time the Employee is in the employ of
                  the Employer, whether before or after adoption of the Plan,
                  determined in accordance with reasonable and uniform standards
                  and policies adopted by the Plan Administrator, which
                  standards and policies shall be consistently observed. For
                  purposes of counting an Employee's Service, the Plan shall
                  treat an Employee's Service with employers who are part of a
                  group of Related Employers of which the Employer is a member
                  as Service with the Employer for the period during which the
                  employers are Related Employers. Service for purposes of
                  determining eligibility to participate and vesting may also be
                  granted for an Employee's Period of Service prior to the date
                  his employer became a Related Employer if such Service is
                  granted in accordance with the requirements of Code Section
                  401(a)(4) and the regulations thereunder. In addition, Service
                  for purposes of eligibility and vesting

   18

                  shall be granted to Eligible Employees of Owen for the period
                  of time such Employees were employed by a hospital contracting
                  with Owen for pharmacy services immediately before such
                  contract and employment by Owen went into effect. For all Plan
                  purposes, the Plan shall treat the following periods as
                  Service:

                  (i)      any Authorized Leave of Absence, subject to the
                           service crediting limitations set forth in Section
                           1.37B;

                  (ii)     any qualified military service in accordance with
                           Section 414(u) of the Code; and

                  (iii)    any other absence during which the Participant
                           continues to receive his regular Compensation.

         L.       SEVERANCE FROM SERVICE DATE. The earlier of (i) the date on
                  which an Employee quits, is discharged, retires, or dies, or
                  (ii) the first anniversary of the first date of any Absence
                  from Service.

         M.       YEAR OF SERVICE. Each one-year Period of Service. Unless
                  otherwise provided in this Plan, Periods of Service which are
                  less than a year shall be aggregated on the basis that 12
                  months (30 days are deemed to be a month in the case of
                  aggregation of fractional months) or 365 days equal a whole
                  year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant (other than
                  a Part-time Employee) who has incurred a Separation from
                  Service and who has completed five or more months of Service
                  following the most recent anniversary of his Employment
                  Commencement Date (or Re-employment Commencement Date, as
                  applicable) shall, as of such termination from employment,
                  receive credit for a full Year of Service for vesting purposes
                  for such Period of Service.

                  In the case of Part-time Employees, a Year of Service means a
                  12-month computation period during which the Part-time
                  Employee completes 1,000 or more Hours of Service.

                                   ARTICLE II

                          ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION


         SECTION 2.01. ELIGIBILITY. Each Eligible Employee shall be eligible to
become a Participant in the Plan. Each Eligible Employee who was a Participant
in the Plan on the day before the Effective Date of this restated Plan shall
continue as a Participant in this Plan as restated. Each Eligible Employee who
was a participant in one of the Merging Plans on the day before the Effective
Date of this restated Plan shall also become a Participant in this restated Plan
as of the effective date of participation set forth in Appendix A. Any other
Eligible Employee who is employed by the Employer on and after July 1, 1999,
shall become a Participant upon completion of 180 days of Service; provided,
however, that an Eligible Employee who is employed by the Employer prior to July
1, 1999, shall become a Participant upon completion of six months of Service.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Eligible Employee who is a
Part-time Employee, such eligible Part-time Employee must complete a Year of
Service within a single Eligibility Computation Period in order to participate
in the Plan. Each Eligible Employee shall become a Participant in the Plan as of
the Entry Date coinciding with his satisfaction of these requirements.

         SECTION 2.02. PARTICIPATION UPON RE-EMPLOYMENT. An Eligible Employee
who had met all the requirements of Section 2.01, but terminated employment
prior to his Entry Date, shall become a Participant on the date he is
re-employed by the Employer, or his original Entry Date, if later. An Eligible
Employee who was a Participant shall again become a Participant on the date he
is re-employed by the Employer. Any Eligible Employee who terminates employment
with the Employer prior to satisfying the eligibility conditions of Section 2.01
must, upon becoming re-employed, satisfy the eligibility conditions of Section
2.01.

         SECTION 2.03. ENROLLMENT. Prior to each Entry Date, the Committee shall
notify each Employee who is eligible to open a Compensation Deferral Account and
shall explain the rights, privileges and duties of a Participant in the Plan.
Each Eligible Employee may enroll as a Participant in the Compensation Deferral
portion of the Plan at any time on or after his Entry Date, by properly
completing the enrollment procedures established at the time by the Committee,
or by following such other reasonable procedures as the Committee may implement.
The Committee may establish rules and procedures governing the time and manner
in which enrollments shall be processed. Eligible Employees shall participate in
the profit sharing portion of the Plan effective upon their eligibility to share
in Profit Sharing Contributions or Special Contributions in accordance with
reasonable enrollment procedures established by the Committee.

         SECTION 2.04. TRANSFER BETWEEN CLASSES OF EMPLOYEES. For eligibility
purposes, in the case of an Eligible Employee who transfers from a Part-time
Employee classification to a class of Employees whose Service is determined on
an elapsed time basis, the Eligible Employee shall receive credit for a Period
of Service computed from his Employment or Re-employment Commencement Date as
applicable.

         In the case of an Eligible Employee who transfers from a class of
Employees whose Service is determined on an elapsed time basis to a Part-time
Employee classification, the Eligible Employee shall receive credit for
eligibility purposes, as of the date of transfer, for a number of Hours of
Service determined by applying the equivalency set forth in Labor Reg. Section
2530.200b-3(e)(1)(i) (which credits ten Hours of Service for each day on which
the Eligible Employee would be required to be credited with one Hour of Service)
to any fractional part of a year credited to the Eligible

   22


Employee under this Section as of the date of the transfer. Such equivalency
shall apply to all similarly situated Employees.


   23


                                  ARTICLE III

                                 CONTRIBUTIONS


         SECTION 3.01. INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS. The Committee, or, if the Committee
so determines, the Trustee, shall maintain an Account for each Participant and
Former Participant having an amount to his credit in the Trust Fund. Each
Account shall be divided into separate subaccounts for "Compensation Deferral
Contributions," "Matching Contributions," "Profit Sharing Contributions" and
"Special Contributions," as defined below. If a Participant has made a "Rollover
Contribution" or "Transfer Contribution," as defined below, or if the Employer
elects to make "Qualified Non-elective Contributions" or "Qualified Matching
Contributions," as defined below, separate subaccounts shall be established for
such contributions as well. Furthermore, if a Participant re-enters the Plan
subsequent to having a "Forfeiture Break in Service" (as defined in Section
5.02), the Committee, or the Trustee, shall maintain a separate Account for the
Participant's pre-Forfeiture Break in Service Account and a separate Account for
his post-Forfeiture Break in Service Account, unless the Participant's entire
Account under the Plan is 100% Nonforfeitable. The Committee will make its
allocations, or request the Trustee to make its allocations, to the Accounts of
the Participants in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.13. The
Committee may direct the Trustee to maintain a temporary segregated investment
Account in the name of a Participant to prevent a distortion of income, gain, or
loss allocations under Section 10.13. The Committee shall maintain records of
its activities.

         SECTION 3.02. PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTIONS AND SPECIAL CONTRIBUTIONS.
For each Plan Year, the Employer may contribute to the Trust amounts determined
in its discretion based on profitability. Such contributions will be in the form
of "PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTIONS" and/or "SPECIAL CONTRIBUTIONS." The amount
contributed in any year may vary, in the Employer's discretion, among the
QSLOBs, and the discretionary amounts so contributed shall be allocated only
among the eligible Participants of the line of business for which the
contribution was made. In addition, the amount contributed within a QSLOB may
vary among the Employers or divisions within the single business line to the
extent such variation does not violate the requirements of Code Sections
401(a)(4) and 410(b). Whenever the Employer elects to contribute different
amounts for a Plan Year on behalf of different lines of business and/or the
Employers or divisions within such lines of business, the Committee shall notify
the Trustee, in writing, of the amount of the contribution allocable to each
group for allocation to the eligible Participants employed within each such
group. The Employer shall not make a contribution to the Trust for any taxable
year to the extent the contribution would exceed the maximum deduction
limitations under Code Section 404. All contributions are conditioned on their
deductibility under the Code.


   24


         SECTION 3.03. PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTION AND SPECIAL CONTRIBUTION
ALLOCATION AND ACCRUAL OF BENEFIT.

         A.       METHOD OF ALLOCATION.

                  (i)      PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTIONS. Subject to Article XI
                           and any restoration allocation required under Section
                           5.05, the Committee shall allocate and credit to the
                           Account of each Participant who satisfies the
                           conditions of Section 3.03B a percentage of the
                           annual Employer Profit Sharing Contribution made
                           pursuant to Section 3.02 that is allocable to
                           Participants of the line of business or other group
                           for which the Participant is employed, determined as
                           follows:

                           STEP ONE: Any Profit Sharing Contributions made
                           during the Plan Year will be allocated among each
                           eligible Participant's Account, in the group of
                           Participants for whom the Profit Sharing Contribution
                           was made, in the ratio that the sum of the
                           Participant's total Compensation and Excess
                           Compensation (as hereinafter defined) for the Plan
                           Year bears to the sum of all such Participants' total
                           Compensation and Excess Compensation for the Plan
                           Year. However, if the amount allocated to
                           Participants' Accounts under this Step One, as a
                           percentage of the sum of their total Compensation and
                           Excess Compensation, exceeds 5.7%, (or the percentage
                           equal to the old-age insurance portion of the tax
                           rate under Code Section 3111(a) in effect for the
                           Plan Year, if greater), then the amount of
                           contributions allocated under this Step One shall be
                           reduced to an amount that results in an allocation,
                           as a percentage of the sum of each Participant's
                           total Compensation and Excess Compensation for the
                           Plan Year, of no more than 5.7% (or the percentage
                           equal to the old-age insurance portion of the tax
                           rate under Code Section 3111(a) in effect for the
                           Plan Year, if greater).

                           STEP TWO: Any Profit Sharing Contributions remaining
                           after the allocation in Step One will be allocated
                           among each eligible Participant's Account, in the
                           group of Participants for whom the Profit Sharing
                           Contribution was made, in the ratio that each such
                           Participant's total Compensation for the Plan Year
                           bears to the total Compensation of all such
                           Participants for that Plan Year.

                           "EXCESS COMPENSATION" means Compensation in excess of
                           the taxable wage base, as determined under Section
                           230 of the Social Security Act, in effect on the
                           first day of the Plan Year.


   25


                  (ii)     SPECIAL CONTRIBUTIONS. As an alternative to or in
                           addition to making Profit Sharing Contributions and
                           allocating them in the manner described above, and
                           subject to Article XI and any restoration allocation
                           required under Section 5.05, the Committee shall
                           allocate and credit to the Account of each
                           Participant who satisfies the conditions of Section
                           3.03B a portion of the annual Employer Special
                           Contribution made pursuant to Section 3.02 that is
                           allocable to the Participants of the line of business
                           or other group for which the Participant is employed.
                           Special Contributions, if any, shall be allocated
                           among the Accounts of the group of eligible
                           Participants for whom the contribution was made in
                           the ratio that each such Participant's Compensation
                           bears to the total Compensation of all such
                           Participants.

         B.       ACCRUAL OF BENEFIT. The Committee shall determine the accrual
                  of a Participant's benefit on the basis of the Plan Year.
                  Although contributions may be made at other times (and
                  therefore credited to Accounts at such other times), the
                  Participant's status as of the end of the Plan Year for which
                  the contribution is made shall determine his entitlement to
                  share in an allocation of such contribution, regardless of
                  when credited to his Account. In allocating a Profit Sharing
                  Contribution or Special Contribution to a Participant's
                  Account, the Committee, subject to Section 11.01, shall take
                  into account only Compensation paid to the Employee during the
                  portion of the Plan Year during which the Employee was a
                  Participant. However, the Committee shall not allocate any
                  portion of a Profit Sharing Contribution or Special
                  Contribution for a Plan Year to the Account of any
                  Participant, if such Participant is not employed by the
                  Employer on the last day of that Plan Year (for a reason other
                  than retirement, Disability, or death). The Plan shall suspend
                  the accrual requirement described herein if the Plan fails to
                  satisfy the requirements of Code Section 410(b).
                  Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, a Profit
                  Sharing Contribution or Special Contribution shall not be
                  allocated to a Participant's Account to the extent the
                  contribution would exceed the Participant's "Maximum
                  Permissible Amount" under Section 4.01.

         SECTION 3.04. COMPENSATION DEFERRAL CONTRIBUTIONS. For any Plan Year,
each Participant may elect to have allocated to his Account an amount of his
Compensation for such Plan Year, which amount shall be a whole percentage,
rounded to the nearest dollar, of not less than one percent but not more than
the lesser of $10,000 (or such larger dollar amount as the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue may prescribe in accordance with Code Section 402(g)(5)) or 20%
of his Compensation for such Plan Year. Such amount shall be known as the
Participant's "COMPENSATION DEFERRAL CONTRIBUTION." A Participant's Compensation
for a Plan Year shall be reduced by the amount of the allocation he elects for
such Plan Year. All elections shall be made at the time, in the manner, and
subject to the conditions specified by the Committee, which shall prescribe
uniform and nondiscriminatory rules for such elections, and shall become
effective as of the first pay period as is administratively practicable after
the election is properly made. The Employer shall not make a Compensation
Deferral Contribution to the Trust to the extent that the Contribution would
exceed the Participant's "Maximum Permissible Amount" as defined under Section
4.01.

         SECTION 3.05. CHANGES AND SUSPENSIONS OF COMPENSATION DEFERRAL
CONTRIBUTIONS. A Participant may change the rate of Compensation Deferral
Contributions to his Account at any time during each Plan Year, effective for
the first payroll period for which it is administratively feasible to change the
rate of such Participant's Compensation Deferral Contributions, by communicating
such rate change in accordance with uniform rules and procedures established by
the Committee regarding the timing and manner of making such elections. In
addition, a

   26


Participant may at any time elect to suspend all contributions to his Account by
giving advance notice in any manner specified by the Committee in accordance
with its uniform rules and procedures. An election to recommence contributions
shall be effective for the first payroll period in which it is administratively
feasible to begin deferral withholdings. All suspensions and recommencements of
Compensation Deferral Contributions shall be made in the manner and at the times
specified in uniform rules and procedures established by the Committee, which
rules and procedures may be changed from time to time.

         SECTION 3.06. MATCHING AND QUALIFIED MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS. For each
Plan Year, the Employer may contribute to each eligible Participant's Account a
"MATCHING CONTRIBUTION" in an amount determined by the Employer from time to
time in its discretion. The amount or rate of the Matching Contribution shall be
announced to Participants and other Eligible Employees, and suspended or changed
on a prospective basis only. To the extent that the Employer is treated as
operating QSLOBs, the discretionary Matching Contribution amounts or rates of
contribution to be allocated among the eligible Participants of each such line
of business may vary. The Employer shall not make a Matching Contribution to the
Trust for any Participant to the extent that the contribution would exceed the
Participant's "Maximum Permissible Amount" under Section 4.01.

         If the Employer so elects, the Employer may also make Matching
Contributions to the Plan which are "QUALIFIED MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS."
Qualified Matching Contributions shall mean Matching Contributions that are at
all times Nonforfeitable and subject to the distribution requirements of Section
401(k) of the Code when made to the Plan. Additional contributions subject to
these rules may be made by the Employer, or some or all of the existing Matching
Contributions can be designated as fully vested and subject to the distribution
restrictions, in order to satisfy these rules. Furthermore, the election to make
any Qualified Matching Contributions may also vary among the QSLOBs of the
Employer.

         SECTION 3.07. MATCHING CONTRIBUTION ALLOCATION AND ACCRUAL OF BENEFIT.
Only Participants who have made Compensation Deferral Contributions during the
Plan Year shall be eligible to share in the allocation of the Matching
Contribution as set forth in Section 3.06. In addition, if different amounts or
rates of Matching Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, if any, are
established for different lines of business, then the Matching or Qualified
Matching Contributions made for a Plan Year by each such QSLOB shall be
allocable only among eligible Participants employed by Employers within such
QSLOB. In all cases, the allocation of Matching Contributions or Qualified
Matching Contributions shall be based on the amount or rate established in
advance for such contributions relative to the Compensation Deferral
Contributions being matched. No Matching Contributions shall be made, however,
with respect to "Excess Compensation Deferrals" as defined in Section 3.10 of
the Plan.

         Matching Contributions shall become Nonforfeitable in accordance with
Section 5.01 of the Plan. In any event, Matching Contributions shall be fully
vested and Nonforfeitable at Normal Retirement Age, upon the complete or partial
termination of the Plan, or upon the complete discontinuance of Employer
contributions. Forfeitures of Matching Contributions, other than Excess
Aggregate Contributions, shall be made in accordance with Section 5.03 of the
Plan.

         SECTION 3.08. VOLUNTARY EMPLOYEE NONDEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTIONS.
Participants shall not be permitted to make voluntary employee nondeductible
contributions.

         SECTION 3.09. QUALIFIED NON-ELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS. If it so elects,
the Employer may make "QUALIFIED NON-ELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS" under the Plan on
behalf of all

   27


Participants or all Participants who are Non-highly Compensated Employees in
order to satisfy either the Actual Deferral Percentage test or the Actual
Contribution Percentage test. For purposes of this Article III, Qualified
Non-elective Contributions shall mean contributions (other than Matching
Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions) made by the Employer and
allocated to Participants' Accounts that the Participants may not elect to
receive in cash until distributed from the Plan; that are Nonforfeitable when
made; and that are distributable only in accordance with the distribution
provisions that are applicable to Compensation Deferral Contributions and
Qualified Matching Contributions. Qualified Non-elective Contributions shall be
allocated to Participants' Accounts in the same proportion that each
Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year for which the Employer makes the
contribution bears to the total Compensation of all Participants for the Plan
Year (or of all Non-highly Compensated Participants, as applicable). Qualified
Non-elective Contributions may be made only with respect to eligible
Participants within one or more QSLOBs or with respect to all eligible
Participants, as determined by the Employer.

         SECTION 3.10. LIMITATIONS APPLICABLE TO COMPENSATION DEFERRAL
CONTRIBUTIONS. The provisions of this Section are effective for Plan Years
beginning on or after January 1, 1997. The limitations set forth herein shall
generally be applied separately to each QSLOB of the Employer.

   28


         A.       DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Section 3.10, the following
                  definitions shall apply:

                  (i)      "ACTUAL DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE," for each Plan Year,
                           means the average of the ratios (calculated
                           separately for each Participant in a specified group)
                           of:

                           a.       the amount of Compensation Deferral
                                    Contributions actually paid over to the
                                    Trust Fund on behalf of each such
                                    Participant for such Plan Year, including
                                    Excess Compensation Deferrals, but excluding
                                    Compensation Deferrals that are taken into
                                    account in the Contribution Percentage test
                                    (provided the Average Deferral Percentage
                                    test is satisfied both with and without
                                    exclusion of these Compensation Deferrals),
                                    to

                           b.       the Participant's Compensation for such Plan
                                    Year for the period during which he was a
                                    Participant in the Plan.

                           For purposes of computing Actual Deferral
                           Percentages, an Eligible Employee who would be a
                           Participant but for the failure to make Compensation
                           Deferrals shall be treated as a Participant on whose
                           behalf no Compensation Deferrals are made.

                  (ii)     "EXCESS COMPENSATION DEFERRALS," with respect to any
                           Plan Year, means the excess of:

                           a.       The aggregate amount of Employer
                                    contributions actually taken into account in
                                    computing the Actual Deferral Percentage of
                                    Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan
                                    Year, over

                           b.       The maximum amount of such contributions
                                    permitted by the Actual Deferral Percentage
                                    test (determined by reducing contributions
                                    made on behalf of Highly Compensated
                                    Employees in order of their Actual Deferral
                                    Percentages, beginning with the highest of
                                    such percentages).

         B.       ACTUAL DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE TEST. In any Plan Year in which the
                  Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated
                  Employees, taking into account Employee elections, would be
                  more than the greater of:

                  (i)           the Actual Deferral Percentage for the group of
                           Non-highly Compensated Employees for the current or
                           preceding Plan Year, as applicable (as set forth on
                           Schedule I to the Plan), multiplied by 1.25, or

                  (ii)          the lesser of two percent plus the Actual
                           Deferral Percentage for the group of Non-highly
                           Compensated Employees for the current or preceding
                           Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) or the Actual
                           Deferral Percentage for the group of Non-highly
                           Compensated Employees for the current or preceding
                           Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) multiplied by
                           two,

                  the deferral elections of the Highly Compensated Employees
                  shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated
                  Employees is not more than the greater of subparagraphs (i) or
                  (ii) of this subsection B. Under such reduction, the dollar
                  amount of the Excess Compensation

   29

                  Deferrals is determined as described in subsection A(ii)
                  above. Next, the Compensation Deferral Contributions of the
                  Highly Compensated Employee with the highest dollar amount of
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions (not necessarily the
                  Highly Compensated Employee with the highest Actual Deferral
                  Percentage) is reduced to the extent required to equal the
                  maximum deferral dollar amount for Highly Compensated
                  Employees permitted by subparagraphs (i) or (ii) of this
                  subsection B, or to cause such Highly Compensated Employee's
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions to equal the dollar amount
                  of the Compensation Deferral Contributions of the Highly
                  Compensated Employee with the next highest dollar amount of
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions, whichever is less. This
                  process is repeated until the aggregate dollar amount of all
                  Highly Compensated Employee Compensation Deferrals are reduced
                  to an amount that will cause the dollar amount of the
                  Compensation Deferrals for all Highly Compensated Employees in
                  the aggregate to equal the dollar amount of Compensation
                  Deferrals that will cause the average of the Actual Deferral
                  Percentages for the group of Highly Compensated Employees to
                  equal the maximum amount permitted under this Section.
                  Alternatively (or in addition to the reductions set forth
                  above), if the Employer has made any Qualified Matching or
                  Qualified Non-elective Contributions for the Plan Year in
                  question, the Committee may elect to treat all or any part of
                  any such contributions meeting the requirements of Treasury
                  Regulations Section 1.401(k)-1(b)(3) as Compensation Deferral
                  Contributions to the extent necessary to satisfy the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage test of this Section. Any Qualified
                  Matching or Qualified Non-elective Contributions so applied
                  shall not be included in the computation of the Actual
                  Contribution Percentage test requirements of Code Section
                  401(m) otherwise applicable to such contributions.

         C.       TESTING GROUPS. The Actual Deferral Percentage test shall be
                  applied separately to each QSLOB participating in the Plan. In
                  addition, the Actual Deferral Percentage test may be performed
                  for any QSLOB separately with respect to those Participants
                  who have met the minimum age and service requirements of Code
                  Section 410(a)(1)(A) from those who have not met such
                  requirements.

         D.       CODE SECTION 415 LIMITATION. The Employer shall not make a
                  contribution to the Trust to the extent the contribution would
                  exceed the Participant's "Maximum Permissible Amount" under
                  Section 4.01.

         E.       MULTIPLE CODE SECTION 401(k) PLANS. The Actual Deferral
                  Percentage for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated
                  Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have
                  Compensation Deferrals (and Qualified Non-elective
                  Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, if
                  treated as Compensation Deferrals for purposes of the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage test) allocated to his Accounts under two
                  or more arrangements described in Section 401(k) of the Code
                  that are maintained by the Employer, shall be determined as if
                  such Compensation Deferrals (and, if applicable, such
                  Qualified Non-elective Contributions or Qualified Matching
                  Contributions, or both) were made under a single arrangement.
                  If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or more
                  cash or deferred arrangements that have different Plan Years,
                  all cash or deferred arrangements ending with or within the
                  same calendar year shall be treated as a single arrangement.

         F.       OPTIONAL PLAN AGGREGATION. In the event that this Plan (or any
                  QSLOB thereof) satisfies the requirements of Sections 401(k),
                  401(a)(4), or 410(b) of the Code only if aggregated

   30

                  with one or more other plans (or QSLOBs), or if one or more
                  other plans satisfy the requirements of such sections of the
                  Code only if aggregated with this Plan (or a QSLOB thereof),
                  then this Section shall be applied by determining the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage of Employees as if all such plans were a
                  single plan. Plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy
                  Section 401(k) of the Code only if they have the same Plan
                  Year.

         G.       TIME FOR MAKING CONTRIBUTIONS. For purposes of determining the
                  Actual Deferral Percentage test, Compensation Deferrals,
                  Qualified Non-elective Contributions and Qualified Matching
                  Contributions must be made before the last day of the 12-month
                  period immediately following the Plan Year to which such
                  contributions relate. Compensation Deferral Contributions
                  must, in any event, be paid over by the Employer to the
                  Trustee by the earlier of the date on which they can
                  reasonably be segregated from the Employer's general assets or
                  within 15 business days after the end of the calendar month in
                  which the Compensation Deferral Contributions were withheld
                  from the Participant's Compensation.

         H.       RECORDKEEPING. The Company shall maintain records sufficient
                  to demonstrate satisfaction of the Actual Deferral Percentage
                  test and the amount of Qualified Non-elective Contributions or
                  Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, used in such test.

         I.       COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE. The determination and treatment of
                  the Actual Deferral Percentage amounts of any Participant
                  shall satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed by
                  the Secretary of the Treasury. In performing the required
                  testing hereunder, any variations in procedures or methods
                  permitted under the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations
                  may be employed.

         SECTION 3.11. DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS COMPENSATION DEFERRALS. The
provisions of this Section are effective for Plan Years beginning on or after
January 1, 1997. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, Excess
Compensation Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto,
shall be distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year to
Participants to whose Accounts such Excess Compensation Deferrals were allocated
for the preceding Plan Year. Whenever possible, however, such distributions
shall be made within two and one-half months after the end of the Plan Year
during which the Excess Compensation Deferrals occurred. Such distributions
shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the respective
portions of the Excess Compensation Deferrals attributable to each of such
Employees under the methodology described in Section 3.10B. Excess Compensation
Deferrals shall be treated as Annual Additions under the Plan.

         A.       DETERMINATION OF INCOME OR LOSS: Excess Compensation Deferrals
                  shall be adjusted for any income or loss. The Plan
                  Administrator shall determine whether such adjustments shall
                  include the period from the end of the Plan Year in which the
                  excess arose up to the date of corrective distribution (the
                  "GAP PERIOD"). The income or loss allocable to Excess
                  Compensation Deferrals is the sum of: (i) income or loss
                  allocable to the Participant's Compensation Deferral Account
                  (and, if applicable, the Qualified Non-elective Contribution
                  Account or the Qualified Matching Contribution Account or
                  both) for the Plan Year multiplied by a fraction, the
                  numerator of which is such Participant's Excess Compensation
                  Deferrals for the year and the denominator of which is the
                  Participant's Account balance attributable to Compensation
                  Deferrals (and Qualified Non-Elective Contributions or
                  Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, if any of such

   31

                  contributions are included in the Actual Deferral Percentage
                  test) without regard to any income or loss occurring during
                  such Plan Year; and (ii) if the corrective distribution is to
                  be adjusted for income or loss during the Gap Period, ten
                  percent of the amount determined under (i) multiplied by the
                  number of whole calendar months between the end of the Plan
                  Year and the date of distribution, counting the month of
                  distribution if distribution occurs after the 15th day of such
                  month. Alternatively, the Committee may determine the income
                  or loss allocable to Excess Compensation Deferrals under any
                  reasonable method which does not violate the general
                  nondiscrimination rules of Code Section 401(a)(4), is used
                  consistently for all Participants and for all such corrective
                  distributions under the Plan for the Plan Year, and is used by
                  the Plan for allocating income to Participants' Accounts.

         B.       ACCOUNTING FOR EXCESS COMPENSATION DEFERRALS: Excess
                  Compensation Deferrals shall be distributed from the
                  Participant's Compensation Deferral Account and Qualified
                  Matching Contribution Account (if applicable) in proportion to
                  the Participant's Compensation Deferrals and Qualified
                  Matching Contributions (to the extent used in the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage test) for the Plan Year. Excess
                  Compensation Deferrals shall be distributed from the
                  Participant's Qualified Non-elective Contribution Account only
                  to the extent that such Excess Compensation Deferrals exceed
                  the balance in the Participant's Compensation Deferral Account
                  and Qualified Matching Contribution Account.

         SECTION 3.12. DOLLAR LIMITATIONS ON ELECTIVE DEFERRALS.

         A.       DEFINITIONS:

                  (i)      "ELECTIVE DEFERRALS" shall mean any Employer
                           contributions made to the Plan at the election of the
                           Participant, in lieu of cash compensation, and shall
                           include contributions made pursuant to a compensation
                           reduction agreement or other deferral mechanism. With
                           respect to any taxable year, a Participant's Elective
                           Deferral is the sum of all employer contributions
                           made on behalf of such Participant pursuant to an
                           election to defer under any qualified cash or
                           deferred arrangement as described in Section 401(k)
                           of the Code, any simplified employee pension cash or
                           deferred arrangement as described in Code Section
                           402(h)(1)(B), any eligible deferred compensation plan
                           under Code Section 457, any plan as described under
                           Code Section 501(c)(18), and any employer
                           contributions made on the behalf of a Participant for
                           the purchase of an annuity contract under Code
                           Section 403(b) pursuant to a compensation reduction
                           agreement.

                  (ii)     "EXCESS ELECTIVE DEFERRALS" shall mean those Elective
                           Deferrals that are includible in a Participant's
                           gross income under Section 402(g) of the Code to the
                           extent such Participant's Elective Deferrals for a
                           taxable year exceed the dollar limitation under such
                           Code section. Excess Elective Deferrals shall be
                           treated as Annual Additions under the Plan, except to
                           the extent they are distributed pursuant to
                           subsection C below.

         B.       PROHIBITION OF DEFERRALS IN EXCESS OF CODE SECTION 402(G)
                  DOLLAR LIMITATIONS. No Participant shall be permitted to have
                  Elective Deferrals made under this Plan, or any

   32

                  other qualified plan, during any taxable year, in excess of
                  the dollar limitation contained in Section 402(g) of the Code
                  in effect at the beginning of such taxable year.

         C.       DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS ELECTIVE DEFERRALS. A Participant may
                  assign to this Plan any Excess Elective Deferrals made during
                  a taxable year of the Participant by notifying the Plan
                  Administrator on or before March 15 of the following taxable
                  year of the amount of the Excess Elective Deferrals to be
                  assigned to the Plan.

                  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Excess
                  Elective Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss
                  allocable thereto, shall be distributed no later than April 15
                  to any Participant to whose Account Excess Elective Deferrals
                  were assigned for the preceding year and who claims Excess
                  Elective Deferrals for such taxable year.

         D.       DETERMINATION OF INCOME OR LOSS. Excess Elective Deferrals
                  shall be adjusted for any income or loss. The Plan
                  Administrator shall determine whether such adjustments shall
                  include the period from the end of the taxable year in which
                  the excess arose up to the date of distribution (the "GAP
                  PERIOD"). The income or loss allocable to Excess Elective
                  Deferrals is the sum of (i) income or loss allocable to the
                  Participant's Elective Deferral Account for the taxable year
                  multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is such
                  Participant's Excess Elective Deferrals for the year and the
                  denominator of which is the Participant's Account Balance
                  attributable to Elective Deferrals without regard to any
                  income or loss occurring during such taxable year; and
                  (ii) if the distribution is to be adjusted for income or loss
                  during the Gap Period, ten percent of the amount determined
                  under (i) multiplied by the number of whole calendar months
                  between the end of the Participant's taxable year and the date
                  of distribution, counting the month of distribution if
                  distribution occurs after the 15th day of such month.
                  Alternatively, the Committee may determine the income or loss
                  allocable to Excess Elective Deferrals under any reasonable
                  method which does not violate the general nondiscrimination
                  rules of Code Section 401(a)(4), is used consistently for all
                  Participants and for all such corrective distributions under
                  the Plan for the Plan Year, and is used by the Plan for
                  allocating income to Participants' Accounts.

         Participants who claim Excess Elective Deferrals for the preceding
taxable year must submit their claims in writing to the Plan Administrator by
March 15 of the calendar year following the Plan Year in which such Excess
Elective Deferrals are claimed to have been made.

         SECTION 3.13. LIMITATIONS APPLICABLE TO MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS. The
provisions of this Section are effective for Plan Years beginning on or after
January 1, 1997. The limitations set forth herein shall generally be applied
separately to each QSLOB of the Employer.

         A.       DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Section, the following
                  definitions shall apply:

                  (i)      "AGGREGATE LIMIT" shall mean the greater of (a) the
                           sum of (1) 125% of the greater of the Actual Deferral
                           Percentage of the Non-highly Compensated Employees
                           for the current or preceding Plan Year (as set forth
                           on Schedule I) or the Actual Contribution Percentage
                           of Non-highly Compensated Employees under the Plan
                           subject to Code Section 401(m) for the current or
                           preceding Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) and
                           (2) the lesser of 200% or two plus the lesser of such
                           Actual Deferral Percentage or Actual Contribution
                           Percentage; or (b) the sum of (1) 125% of the lesser
                           of the Actual Deferral Percentage of the

   33


                           Non-highly Compensated Employees for the current or
                           preceding Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) or
                           the Actual Contribution Percentage of Non-highly
                           Compensated Employees under the Plan subject to Code
                           Section 401(m) for the current or preceding Plan Year
                           (as set forth on Schedule I), and (2) the lesser of
                           200% or two plus the greater of such Actual Deferral
                           Percentage or Actual Contribution Percentage.

                  (ii)     "ACTUAL CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE" shall mean the
                           average of the Contribution Percentages of the
                           Eligible Participants in a group.

                  (iii)    "CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE" shall mean the ratio
                           (expressed as a percentage) of the Participant's
                           Contribution Percentage Amounts to the Participant's
                           Compensation for the Plan Year (whether or not the
                           Employee was a Participant for the entire Plan Year).

                  (iv)     "CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE AMOUNTS" shall mean the sum
                           of the Matching Contributions and Qualified Matching
                           Contributions (to the extent not taken into account
                           for purposes of the Actual Deferral Percentage test)
                           made under the Plan on behalf of the Participant for
                           the Plan Year. Such Contribution Percentage Amounts
                           shall not include Matching Contributions that are
                           forfeited either to correct Excess Aggregate
                           Contributions or because the contributions to which
                           they relate are Excess Compensation Deferrals, Excess
                           Elective Deferrals, or Excess Aggregate
                           Contributions. If it so desires, the Employer may
                           make Qualified Non-elective Contributions designated
                           for inclusion in the Contribution Percentage Amounts.
                           The Employer also may elect to use Compensation
                           Deferrals in the Contribution Percentage Amounts so
                           long as the Actual Deferral Percentage test is met
                           before the Compensation Deferrals are used in the
                           Actual Contribution Percentage test and continues to
                           be met following the exclusion of those Compensation
                           Deferrals that are used to meet the Actual
                           Contribution Percentage test.

                  (v)      "ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT" shall mean any Employee who is
                           eligible to make an Employee Contribution, or a
                           Compensation Deferral (if the Employer takes such
                           contributions into account in the calculation of the
                           Contribution Percentage), or to receive a Matching
                           Contribution (including forfeitures) or a Qualified
                           Matching Contribution. If an Employee Contribution is
                           required as a condition of participation in the Plan,
                           any Employee who would be a Participant in the Plan
                           if such Employee made such a contribution shall be
                           treated as an eligible Participant on behalf of whom
                           no Employee Contributions are made.

                  (vi)     "EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTION" shall mean any voluntary
                           employee nondeductible contribution made to the Plan
                           by or on behalf of a Participant that is included in
                           the Participant's gross income in the year in which
                           made and that is maintained under a separate account
                           to which earnings and losses are allocated.

                  (vii)    "EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS" shall mean, with
                           respect to any Plan Year, the excess of:

                           a.       The aggregate Contribution Percentage
                                    Amounts taken into account in computing the
                                    numerator of the Actual Contribution
                                    Percentage actually
   34


                                    made on behalf of Highly Compensated
                                    Employees for such Plan Year, over

                           b.       The maximum Contribution Amounts permitted
                                    by the Actual Contribution Percentage test
                                    (determined by reducing contributions made
                                    on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees in
                                    order of their Contribution Percentages
                                    beginning with the highest of such
                                    percentages).

                           Such determination shall be made after first
                           determining Excess Compensation Deferrals pursuant to
                           Section 3.10. After making such determination, the
                           dollar amount of the Excess Aggregate Contributions
                           shall be determined. The Excess Aggregate
                           Contributions, on a dollar amount basis, shall be
                           allocated to the Account(s) of the Highly Compensated
                           Participant(s) with the highest dollar amount of
                           Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to
                           his/their Account(s) in a reverse leveling process
                           similar to the one described in Section 3.10B
                           applicable to Compensation Deferral Contributions.

                  (viii)   "MATCHING CONTRIBUTION" shall mean an Employer
                           contribution made to this or any other defined
                           contribution plan on behalf of a Participant on
                           account of an Employee Contribution made by such
                           Participant, or on account of a Participant's
                           Compensation Deferral Contributions under a Plan
                           maintained by the Employer.

         B.       ACTUAL CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE TEST. The Actual Contribution
                  Percentage for Participants who are Highly Compensated
                  Employees for each Plan Year and the Actual Contribution
                  Percentage for Participants who are Non-highly Compensated
                  Employees for the current or preceding Plan Year (as set forth
                  on Schedule I) must satisfy one of the following tests:

                  (i)      The Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants
                           who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                           Year shall not exceed the Actual Contribution
                           Percentage for Participants who are Non-highly
                           Compensated Employees for the current or preceding
                           Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) multiplied by
                           1.25; or

                  (ii)     The Actual Contribution Percentage for Participants
                           who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan
                           Year shall not exceed the Actual Contribution
                           Percentage for Participants who are Non-highly
                           Compensated Employees for the current or preceding
                           Plan Year (as set forth on Schedule I) multiplied by
                           two, provided that the Actual Contribution Percentage
                           for Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees
                           does not exceed such Actual Contribution Percentage
                           for Participants who are Non-highly Compensated
                           Employees by more than two percentage points.

         C.       The following special rules shall apply:

                  (i)      TESTING GROUPS. The Actual Contribution Percentage
                           test shall be applied separately to each QSLOB
                           participating in the Plan. In addition, the Actual
                           Contribution Percentage test may be performed for any
                           QSLOB separately with

   35


                           respect to those Participants who have met the
                           minimum age and service requirements of Code Section
                           410(a)(1)(A) from those who have not met such
                           requirements.

                  (ii)     MULTIPLE USE. If the sum of the Actual Deferral
                           Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage of
                           those Highly Compensated Employees subject to either
                           or both tests exceeds the Aggregate Limit, then the
                           Actual Contribution Percentage of those Highly
                           Compensated Employees will be reduced (beginning with
                           such Highly Compensated Employee whose Actual
                           Contribution Percentage is the highest) so that the
                           limit is not exceeded. The amount by which each
                           Highly Compensated Employee's Contribution Percentage
                           Amount is reduced shall be treated as an Excess
                           Aggregate Contribution. The Actual Deferral
                           Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage of the
                           Highly Compensated Employees are determined after any
                           corrections required to meet the Actual Deferral
                           Percentage and Actual Contribution Percentage tests.
                           Multiple use does not occur if either the Actual
                           Deferral Percentage or Actual Contribution Percentage
                           of the Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed
                           1.25 multiplied by the Actual Deferral Percentage or
                           Actual Contribution Percentage, as applicable, of the
                           Non-highly Compensated Employees.

                  (iii)    AGGREGATION OF CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE AMOUNTS. For
                           purposes of this Section, the Contribution Percentage
                           for any Participant who is a Highly Compensated
                           Employee and who is eligible to have Contribution
                           Percentage Amounts allocated to his Account under two
                           or more Plans described in Section 401(a) of the
                           Code, or arrangements described in Section 401(k) of
                           the Code that are maintained by the Employer, shall
                           be determined as if the total of such Contribution
                           Percentage Amounts was made under each plan. If a
                           Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or
                           more cash or deferred arrangements that have
                           different plan years, all cash or deferred
                           arrangements ending with or within the same calendar
                           year shall be treated as a single arrangement.

                  (iv)     AGGREGATION OF PLANS. In the event that this Plan (or
                           any QSLOB thereof) satisfies the requirements of
                           Sections 401(m), 401(a)(4) or 410(b) of the Code only
                           if aggregated with one or more other plans (or
                           QSLOBs), or if one or more other plans satisfy the
                           requirements of such sections of the Code only if
                           aggregated with this Plan (or a QSLOB thereof), then
                           this Section shall be applied by determining the
                           Contribution Percentage of Employees as if all such
                           plans were a single plan. Plans may be aggregated in
                           order to satisfy Section 401(m) of the Code only if
                           they have the same Plan Year.

                  (v)      ALLOCATION OF AMOUNTS TO PLAN YEARS. For purposes of
                           determining the Actual Contribution Percentage test,
                           Employee Contributions are considered to have been
                           made in the Plan Year in which contributed to the
                           Trust. Matching Contributions and Qualified
                           Non-elective Contributions shall be considered made
                           for a Plan Year if made no later than the end of the
                           12-month period beginning on the day after the close
                           of the Plan Year.

                  (vi)     RECORDKEEPING. The Employer shall maintain records
                           sufficient to demonstrate satisfaction of the Actual
                           Contribution Percentage test and the amount of

   36


                           Qualified Non-elective Contributions or Qualified
                           Matching Contributions, or both, used in such test.

                  (vii)    CODE REQUIREMENTS. The determination and treatment of
                           the Contribution Percentage of any Participant shall
                           satisfy such other requirements as may be prescribed
                           by the Secretary of the Treasury. In performing the
                           required testing hereunder, any variations in
                           procedures or methods permitted under the Code and
                           applicable Treasury Regulations may be employed.

         SECTION 3.14. DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS. The
provisions of this Section are effective for Plan Years beginning on or after
January 1, 1997. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, Excess
Aggregate Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto,
shall be forfeited, if forfeitable, or if not forfeitable, distributed no later
than the last day of each Plan Year to Participants to whose Accounts such
Excess Aggregate Contributions were allocated for the preceding Plan Year.
Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be treated as Annual Additions under the
Plan.

         A.       DETERMINATION OF INCOME OR LOSS: Excess Aggregate
                  Contributions shall be adjusted for any income or loss. The
                  Plan Administrator shall determine whether such adjustments
                  shall include the period from the end of the Plan Year in
                  which the excess arose up to the date of corrective
                  distribution (the "GAP PERIOD"). The income or loss allocable
                  to Excess Aggregate Contributions is the sum of: (i) income or
                  loss allocable to the Participant's Matching Account and
                  Qualified Matching Contribution Account (if any, and only to
                  the extent that amounts therein are not used in the Actual
                  Deferral Percentage test), and Qualified Non-elective
                  Contribution Account and Compensation Deferral Account if any
                  such amounts were used in calculating the Actual Contribution
                  Percentage test, for the Plan Year, multiplied by a fraction,
                  the numerator of which is such Participant's Excess Aggregate
                  Contributions for the year and the denominator of which is the
                  Participant's Account balance(s) attributable to Contribution
                  Percentage Amounts without regard to any income or loss
                  occurring during such Plan Year; and (ii) if the corrective
                  distribution is to be adjusted for income or loss during the
                  Gap Period, ten percent of the amount determined under (i)
                  multiplied by the number of whole calendar months between the
                  end of the Plan Year and the date of distribution, counting
                  the month of distribution if distribution occurs after the
                  15th day of such month. Alternatively, the Committee may
                  determine the income or loss allocable to Excess Aggregate
                  Contributions under any reasonable method which does not
                  violate the general nondiscrimination rules of Code Section
                  401(a)(4), is used consistently for all Participants and for
                  all such corrective distributions under the Plan for the Plan
                  Year, and is used by the Plan for allocating income to
                  Participants' Accounts.

         B.       FORFEITURES OF EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS: Forfeitures of
                  Excess Aggregate Contributions may either be reallocated to
                  the Accounts of Non-highly Compensated Employees or applied to
                  reduce Employer contributions, as elected by the Employer.

         C.       ACCOUNTING FOR EXCESS AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTIONS: Excess
                  Aggregate Contributions shall be forfeited, if forfeitable, or
                  distributed on a pro-rata basis from the Participant's
                  Employee Contribution Account, Matching Account, and Qualified
                  Matching Contribution Account (and, if applicable, the
                  Participant's Qualified Non-elective Contribution Account or
                  Compensation Deferral Account, or both).

   37


         SECTION 3.15. ALTERNATIVE TO DISTRIBUTION OF EXCESS AMOUNTS. In lieu of
distributing Excess Compensation Deferrals as provided in Section 3.11 of the
Plan, or Excess Aggregate Contributions as provided in Section 3.14 of the Plan,
and to the extent elected by the Employer, with respect either to all Employers
or to all Employers within one or more QSLOBs, the Employer may make Qualified
Non-elective Contributions on behalf of Non-highly Compensated Employees that
are sufficient to satisfy either the Actual Deferral Percentage test or the
Actual Contribution Percentage test, or both, pursuant to regulations under the
Code, and in accordance with Section 3.09 of the Plan.

         SECTION 3.16. TIME OF PAYMENT OF CONTRIBUTION. The Employer may pay its
contribution for each Plan Year in one or more installments of cash without
interest. The Employer must make its contribution which Participants have
elected to defer under Section 3.04 as soon as such amounts may reasonably be
segregated from the Employer's general assets, but in no event later than 15
business days after the end of the calendar month in which such amounts were
withheld from the Participant's Compensation, or such later time as may be
permitted by regulations under ERISA and Section 401(k) of the Code. The
Employer must make the balance, if any, of its contribution to the Trustee
within the time prescribed (including extensions) for filing its tax return for
the taxable year for which it claims a deduction for its contribution, in
accordance with Code Section 404(a)(6).

         SECTION 3.17. ALLOCATION OF FORFEITURES. Subject to any restoration
allocation required under Section 5.05, the Committee shall allocate and use the
amount of a Participant's benefit forfeited under the Plan to reduce its Profit
Sharing Contribution, Special Contribution and/or Matching Contribution for the
Plan Year in which the forfeiture occurs. The Committee shall continue to hold
the undistributed, nonvested portion of a terminated Participant's benefit in
his Account solely for his benefit until a forfeiture occurs at the time
specified in Section 5.03.

         SECTION 3.18. ROLLOVER AND TRANSFER CONTRIBUTIONS. The Trustee is
authorized to accept on behalf of an Employee, and hold as part of the Trust
Fund, assets from another plan qualified under either Section 401(a) or 403(a)
of the Code, provided that such transfer satisfies any procedures or other
requirements established by the Committee. The Trustee shall also accept and
hold as part of the Trust Fund assets transferred from any other plan qualified
under either Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code in connection with a merger or
consolidation of such plan with or into the Plan pursuant to Section 13.06
hereof and as may be approved by the Committee. In addition, the Trustee shall
also accept "rollover" amounts contributed directly by or on behalf of an
Employee in accordance with procedures and rules established by the Committee in
respect of a distribution made to or on behalf of such Employee from another
plan qualified under either Code Section 401(a) or 403(a) pursuant to Section
13.06 hereof. All amounts so transferred to the Trust Fund shall be held in
segregated subaccounts and shall be referred to as "TRANSFER CONTRIBUTIONS" if
such amounts are subject to the special distribution rules described in Section
6.11 and as "ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS" if not subject to such rules.

         Rollover Contributions must conform to rules and procedures established
by the Committee, including rules designed to assure the Committee that the
funds so transferred qualify as a Rollover Contribution under the Code. An
Employee, prior to satisfying the Plan's eligibility conditions, may make a
Rollover Contribution to the Trust to the same extent and in the same manner as
a Participant. If an Employee makes a Rollover Contribution to the Trust prior
to satisfying the Plan's eligibility conditions, the Committee and Trustee must
treat the Employee as a Participant for all purposes of the Plan, except that
the Employee is not a Participant for purposes of making Compensation Deferral
Contributions or sharing in Employer contributions or Participant forfeitures
under the Plan until he actually becomes a Participant in the Plan. If the
Employee has a Separation from Service prior to

   38

becoming a Participant, the Trustee will distribute his Rollover Contribution
Account to him as if it were an Employer contribution Account.

         SECTION 3.19. RETURN OF CONTRIBUTIONS. All contributions to the Plan
are conditioned upon their deductibility under the Code. The Trustee, upon
written request from the Employer, shall return to the Employer the amount of
the Employer's contribution made by the Employer by mistake of fact or the
amount of the Employer's contribution disallowed as a deduction under Code
Section 404. The Trustee shall not return any portion of the Employer's
contribution under this provision more than one year after.

         A.       The Employer made the contribution by mistake of fact; or

         B.       The disallowance of the contribution as a deduction, and then,
                  only to the extent of the disallowance.

The Trustee shall not increase the amount of the Employer contribution
returnable under this Section 3.19 for any earnings attributable to the
contribution, but the Trustee shall decrease the Employer contribution
returnable for any losses attributable to it. The Trustee may require the
Employer to furnish it whatever evidence the Trustee deems necessary to enable
the Trustee to confirm the amount the Employer has requested be returned is
properly returnable under ERISA.

                                   ARTICLE IV

              LIMITATIONS ON ALLOCATIONS TO PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS


         SECTION 4.01. DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Article IV, the
following definitions and rules of interpretation shall apply:

         A.       "ANNUAL ADDITIONS" are the sum of the following amounts
                  credited to a Participant's Account for any Limitation Year:

                  (i)      Compensation Deferral Contributions, Matching
                           Contributions, and Qualified Matching Contributions;

                  (ii)     Profit Sharing Contributions, Special Contributions
                           and Qualified Non-elective Contributions, if any;

                  (iii)    Forfeitures, if any; and

                  (iv)     Excess amounts reapplied to reduce Employer
                           contributions under Section 4.02.

                  Except to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations, Annual
                  Additions include any excess contributions described in Code
                  Section 401(k), excess aggregate contributions described in
                  Code Section 401(m), and excess deferrals described in Code
                  Section 402(g), irrespective of whether the Plan distributes
                  or forfeits such excess amounts. Annual Additions also include
                  amounts allocated to an individual medical account (as defined
                  in Code Section 415(l)(2)) included as part of a pension or
                  annuity plan maintained by the Employer. Furthermore, Annual
                  Additions include contributions attributable to
                  post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the separate
                  account of a Key Employee (as defined in Code Section
                  419(A)(d)(3)) under a welfare benefit fund (Code Section
                  419(e)) maintained by the Employer.

         B.       "COMPANY." Any corporation that is a member of a controlled
                  group of corporations (as defined in Section 414(b) of the
                  Code as modified by Section 415(h)) that includes Cardinal
                  Health, Inc., or any trades or businesses (whether or not
                  incorporated) that are under common control (as defined in
                  Section 414(c) of the Code as modified by Section 415(h)) with
                  Cardinal Health, Inc., or a member of an affiliated service
                  group (as defined in Code Section 414(m)) that includes
                  Cardinal Health, Inc., or any other entity required to be
                  aggregated with Cardinal Health, Inc., pursuant to regulations
                  under Section 414(o) of the Code.

         C.       "COMPENSATION." With respect to the Limitation Year means
                  Compensation as defined in Section 1.08 disregarding any
                  exclusions from Compensation, other than the exclusions
                  described in subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) of
                  Section 1.08A. For purposes of applying the limitations of
                  this Article IV, Compensation for a Limitation Year is the
                  Compensation actually paid or includible in gross income
                  during such Limitation Year. Effective for Plan Years
                  beginning on or after January 1, 1998, Compensation includes
                  any elective deferrals (as defined in Code Section 402(g)(3))
                  and any amounts contributed or deferred at the Employee's
                  election and which are not includible in the gross income of
                  the Employee by reason of Code Section 125 or Code Section
                  457.

   40


         D.       "DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN." A retirement plan that does not
                  provide for individual accounts for Employer contributions.
                  The Committee shall treat all Defined Benefit Plans (whether
                  or not terminated) maintained by the Employer as a single
                  plan.

         E.       "DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN." A retirement plan that provides
                  for an individual account for each participant and for
                  benefits based solely on the amount contributed to the
                  participant's account, and any income, expenses, gains and
                  losses, and any forfeitures of accounts of other participants
                  that the Committee may allocate to such Participant's account.
                  The Committee shall treat as a Defined Contribution Plan an
                  individual medical account (as defined in Code Section
                  415(l)(2)) included as part of a Defined Benefit Plan
                  maintained by the Employer and a welfare benefit fund under
                  Code Section 419(e) maintained by the Employer to the extent
                  there are post-retirement medical benefits allocated to the
                  separate account of a key employee (as defined in Code Section
                  419A(d)(3)). The Committee shall treat all Defined
                  Contribution Plans (whether or not terminated) maintained by
                  the Employer as a single plan.

         F.       "LIMITATION YEAR." The Plan Year.

         G.       "MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE AMOUNT." For a Limitation Year, the
                  maximum permissible amount with respect to any Participant
                  shall be the lesser of:

                  (i)      $30,000 (as adjusted in accordance with Code Section
                           415(d)), or

                  (ii)     25% of the Participant's Compensation for the
                           Limitation Year.

                  If there is a short Limitation Year because of a change in
                  Limitation Year, the Committee will multiply the $30,000
                  limitation (or larger limitation) by the following fraction:

NUMBER OF MONTHS IN THE SHORT LIMITATION YEAR
12.

         H.       "PROJECTED ANNUAL BENEFIT." The annual retirement benefit
                  (adjusted to an actuarially equivalent straight life annuity
                  if the plan expresses such benefit in a form other than a
                  straight life annuity or qualified joint and survivor annuity)
                  to which a Participant would be entitled under a Defined
                  Benefit Plan on the assumptions that he continues employment
                  until the normal retirement age (or current age, if that is
                  later) thereunder, that his Compensation continues at the same
                  rate as in effect for the Limitation Year under consideration
                  until such age, and that all other relevant factors used to
                  determine benefits under the Defined Benefit Plan remain
                  constant as of the current Limitation Year for all future
                  Limitation Years.

         I.       REQUIRED PLAN AGGREGATION. For purposes of applying the
                  limitations of Code Section 415(b), (c) and (e) applicable to
                  a Participant for a particular Limitation Year, all qualified
                  Defined Benefit Plans (without regard to whether a plan has
                  been terminated) ever maintained by the Company will be
                  treated as one Defined Benefit Plan and all qualified Defined
                  Contribution Plans (without regard to whether a plan has been
                  terminated) ever maintained by the Company will be treated as
                  part of this Plan.

   41


         SECTION 4.02. ANNUAL ADDITION LIMITATIONS. The amount of the Annual
Addition that may be credited under this Plan to any Participant's Account as of
any allocation date shall not exceed the Maximum Permissible Amount reduced by
the sum of any credits of Annual Additions made to the Participant's Account
under all Defined Contribution Plans as of any preceding allocation date within
the Limitation Year.

         If an allocation date of this Plan coincides with an allocation date of
any other qualified Defined Contribution Plan maintained by the Company, the
amount of the Annual Additions that may be credited under this Plan to any
Participant's Account as of such date shall be an amount equal to the product of
the amount to be credited under this Plan without regard to this Article IV
multiplied by the lesser of one or a fraction, the numerator of which is the
amount described in this Section 4.02 during the Limitation Year and the
denominator of which is the amount that would otherwise be credited on this
allocation date under all Defined Contribution Plans without regard to this
Article IV.

         If contributions to this Plan on behalf of a Participant are to be
reduced prior to their contribution to the Plan as a result of this Article IV,
such reduction shall be effected by first reducing the amount of any
Compensation Deferral Contributions (along with any corresponding Matching
Contributions) on behalf of such Participant, and then, if necessary, by
reducing the Profit Sharing Contributions and/or Special Contributions that
would otherwise have been allocated to a Participant's Account. If, as a result
of either (a) the allocation of forfeitures, or (b) a reasonable error in
estimating a Participant's Compensation, or (c) under the limited facts and
circumstances which the Commissioner of Internal Revenue finds justify the
availability of the rules set forth in subsections A-D of this Section 4.02, the
allocation of Annual Additions under the terms of the Plan for a particular
Participant would cause the limitations of Code Section 415 applicable to that
Participant for the Limitation Year to be exceeded, the excess amounts shall not
be deemed to be Annual Additions in that Limitation Year if they are treated as
follows:

         A.       The excess amounts in the Participant's Account consisting of
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions and any gains attributable
                  thereto shall be paid to the Participant as soon as
                  administratively feasible. Any amount so distributed shall be
                  disregarded for purposes of complying with the requirements of
                  Code Section 402(g), the Actual Deferral Percentage test of
                  Code Section 401(k)(3) and the Actual Contribution Percentage
                  test of Code Section 401(m)(2).

         B.       The excess amounts in the Participant's Account consisting of
                  Profit Sharing Contributions, Special Contributions or
                  Matching Contributions shall be used to reduce Profit Sharing
                  Contributions, Special Contributions or Matching Contributions
                  respectively for the next Limitation Year (and succeeding
                  Limitation Years, as necessary) for that Participant if that
                  Participant is covered by the Plan as of the end of the
                  Limitation Year. However, if that Participant is not covered
                  by the Plan as of the end of the Limitation Year, then the
                  excess amounts must be held unallocated in a suspense account
                  for the Limitation Year and allocated and reallocated in the
                  next Limitation Year to all of the remaining Participants in
                  the Plan. If a suspense account is in existence at any time
                  during a particular Limitation Year, other than the first
                  Limitation Year described in the preceding sentence, all
                  amounts in the suspense account must be allocated and
                  reallocated to Participants' Accounts (subject to the
                  limitations of Code Section 415) before any contributions that
                  would constitute Annual Additions may be made to the Plan for
                  that Limitation Year. Furthermore, the excess amounts must be
                  used to reduce Profit Sharing Contributions, Special
                  Contributions, and Matching Contributions for the next
                  Limitation Year (and succeeding Limitation Years, as

   42

                  necessary) for all of the remaining Participants in the Plan.
                  For purposes of this subdivision, except as provided in
                  Section 4.02A, excess amounts may not be distributed to
                  Participants or Former Participants.

         C.       In the event of termination of the Plan, the suspense account
                  described in subsection B, above, shall revert to the Company
                  to the extent it may not then be allocated to any
                  Participant's Account.

         D.       Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Article IV, the
                  Company shall not contribute any amount that would cause an
                  allocation to the suspense account as of the date the
                  contribution is allocated. If the contribution is made prior
                  to the date as of which it is to be allocated, then such
                  contribution shall not exceed an amount that would cause an
                  allocation to the suspense account if the date of contribution
                  were an allocation date.

         E.       If a Participant's Annual Additions would result in an excess
                  amount for a Limitation Year, the excess amount will be deemed
                  to consist of the Annual Additions last allocated except that
                  Annual Additions attributable to a welfare benefit fund will
                  be deemed to have been allocated first regardless of the
                  actual allocation date.

         SECTION 4.03. OVERALL LIMITATIONS. This Section applies only to
Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 2000. If the Participant presently
participates, or has ever participated, under a Defined Benefit Plan maintained
by the Employer, then the sum of the Defined Benefit Plan Fraction and the
Defined Contribution Plan Fraction for the Participant for that Limitation Year
shall not exceed 1.0. If in any Limitation Year the sum of the Defined Benefit
Plan Fraction and the Defined Contribution Plan Fraction on behalf of a
Participant exceeds 1.0, then the Employer shall reduce the Participant's Annual
Addition under this Plan to the extent necessary to prevent the sum of the
Defined Contribution Plan Fraction and the Defined Benefit Plan Fraction from
exceeding 1.0.

         A.       "DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN FRACTION" means:

Projected Annual Benefit of the Participant under
all Defined Benefit Plan(s) maintained by the Company

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lesser of (i) 125% of the dollar limitation in effect
under Code Section 415(b)(1)(A) and (d) for the Limitation
Year, or (ii) 140% of the Participant's average Compensation
for the three consecutive years of Service
during which Compensation is highest, including
any adjustment under Section 415(b) of the Code.

                  If the Employee was a Participant as of the first day of the
                  first Limitation Year beginning after December 31, 1986, in
                  one or more Defined Benefit Plans maintained by the Employer
                  that were in existence on May 6, 1986, the denominator of this
                  fraction will not be less than 125% of the sum of the annual
                  benefits under such plans that the Employee had accrued as of
                  the end of 1986 Limitation Year (the last Limitation Year
                  beginning before January 1, 1987), disregarding any changes in
                  the terms and conditions of the Plan after May 5, 1986. The
                  preceding sentence only applies if the Defined

   43

                  Benefit Plans individually and in the aggregate satisfied the
                  requirements of Code Section 415 for all Limitation Years
                  beginning before January 1, 1987.


   44


         B.       "DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN FRACTION" means:

the sum of the Annual Additions to the Participant's
Account under all Defined Contribution Plan(s)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the sum of the lesser of the following amounts determined
for the Limitation Year and for each prior year of
Service with the Employer: (i) 125% of the
dollar limitation determined under Code Section
415(b) and (d) in effect under Code Section
415(c)(1)(A) for the Limitation Year (determined
without regard to the special dollar limitations
for employee stock ownership plans), or
(ii) 35% of the Participant's Compensation for
the Limitation Year.

                  If the Employee was a Participant as of the end of the first
                  day of the first Limitation Year beginning after December 31,
                  1986 in one or more Defined Contribution Plans maintained by
                  the Employer that were in existence on May 6, 1986, the
                  Committee will redetermine the Defined Contribution Plan
                  Fraction and the Defined Benefit Plan Fraction, as of the end
                  of the 1986 Limitation Year (the last Limitation Year
                  beginning before January 1, 1987), under this Section 4.03,
                  disregarding any changes in the terms and conditions of the
                  plan after May 5, 1986, but using the Section 415 limitations
                  applicable to the first Limitation Year beginning on or after
                  January 1, 1987. If the sum of the redetermined fractions (the
                  Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit
                  Fraction) exceeds 1.0, the Committee will subtract permanently
                  from the numerator of this fraction an amount equal to the
                  product of (i) the excess of the sum of the fractions over
                  1.0, times (ii) the denominator of this fraction. The
                  Committee also may use any transitional rules provided by law
                  that are applicable in computing the Participant's Defined
                  Contribution Plan Fraction.

                  The Committee will make a similar adjustment to the numerator
                  of this fraction if the sum of the fractions exceeds 1.0, as
                  of the end of the 1986 Limitation Year (the last Limitation
                  Year beginning before January 1, 1987), because (a) the Plan
                  is Top Heavy in the first Plan Year beginning after December
                  31, 1986, and the Committee must apply Section 11.04, or (b)
                  the terms of one or more May 6, 1986, plans required Annual
                  Additions or accruals during the 1986 Limitation Year in
                  excess of the Code Section 415 limitations as amended by the
                  Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982.

         SECTION 4.04. FURTHER REDUCTIONS OF CONTRIBUTIONS. In addition to the
reductions and recharacterizations provided for under Article III, in any Plan
Year in which the Committee deems it necessary to do so to meet the requirements
of Article IV or the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the Committee
may further reduce the amount of Compensation Deferral Contributions that may be
made to a Participant's Account.

                                    ARTICLE V

                   TERMINATION OF SERVICE; PARTICIPANT VESTING


         SECTION 5.01. VESTING.

         A.       VESTING - IN GENERAL. A Participant's interest in his
                  Compensation Deferral Account, Rollover Account, Transfer
                  Account, and his Qualified Matching Contribution Account or
                  Qualified Non-elective Contribution Account, if any, shall at
                  all times be fully vested and Nonforfeitable. A Participant's
                  interest in his Profit Sharing Account, Special Contribution
                  Account and Matching Account shall be fully vested and
                  Nonforfeitable upon and after his attaining Normal Retirement
                  Age (if employed by the Employer on or after that date), or if
                  his employment terminates as a result of death or Disability.
                  If a Participant's employment terminates prior to Normal
                  Retirement Age for any reason other than death or Disability,
                  then for each Year of Service, he shall receive a
                  Nonforfeitable percentage of his Profit Sharing Account,
                  Special Contribution Account and Matching Account (forfeiting
                  the balance) equal to the following:



                                                                        Profit Sharing, Special
                                                                           Contribution and
                                                                           Matching Accounts
                                  Years of Service                      Percent Nonforfeitable
                                  ----------------                      -----------------------
                                                                       
                                Less than three (3)                                 0%
                     At least three (3) but less than four (4)                     20%
                      At least four (4) but less than five (5)                     40%
                      At least five (5) but less than six (6)                      60%
                      At least six (6) but less than seven (7)                     80%
                             At least seven (7) or more                           100%


         B.       VESTING - SPECIAL FIVE YEAR SCHEDULE. If (a) a Participant was
                  employed on or before December 31, 1996 by an Employer
                  participating in this Plan as of such date, and (b) such
                  Participant's employment terminates prior to Normal Retirement
                  Age for any reason other than death or Disability, then for
                  each Year of Service he shall receive a Nonforfeitable
                  percentage of his Employer Profit Sharing Account, Special
                  Contribution Account and Matching Account (forfeiting the
                  balance) equal to the following:


   46



                                                                        Profit Sharing, Special
                                                                           Contribution and
                                                                           Matching Accounts
                                  Years of Service                      Percent NOnforfeitable
                                  ----------------                      -----------------------
                                                                       
                                 Less than two (2)                                  0%
                      At least two (2) but less than three (3)                     25%
                     At least three (3) but less than four (4)                     50%
                      At least four (4) but less than five (5)                     75%
                             At least five (5) or more                            100%



         SECTION 5.02. INCLUDED YEARS OF SERVICE - VESTING. For purposes of
determining Years of Service under Section 5.01, the Plan shall take into
account all Years of Service an Employee completes except any Year of Service
after the Participant first incurs a "FORFEITURE BREAK IN SERVICE." The
Participant incurs a Forfeiture Break in Service when he incurs five consecutive
Breaks in Service. This exception excluding Years of Service after a Forfeiture
Break in Service shall apply for the sole purpose of determining the
nonforfeitable percentage of a Participant's Profit Sharing Account, Special
Contribution Account and Matching Account which accrued for his benefit prior to
the Forfeiture Break in Service. For Part-time Employees, a Year of Service for
vesting purposes shall be earned for each Plan Year during which such Part-time
Employee earns a Year of Service.

         SECTION 5.03. FORFEITURE OCCURS. A Participant's forfeiture, if any, of
his Profit Sharing Account, Special Contribution Account and Matching Account
shall occur under the Plan:

         A.       As of the Accounting Date of the Plan Year in which the
                  Participant first incurs a Forfeiture Break in Service, or, if
                  earlier and if applicable,

         B.       On the date the Participant receives (or is deemed to receive)
                  a "Cash-out Distribution," as defined in Section 5.04, of the
                  Nonforfeitable percentage of his Profit Sharing Account,
                  Special Contribution Account and Matching Account as a result
                  of his termination of participation in the Plan in accordance
                  with Section 5.04 below.

         The Committee shall determine the percentage of a Participant's Profit
Sharing Account, Special Contribution Account and Matching Account forfeiture,
if any, under this Section 5.03 solely by reference to the vesting schedule of
Section 5.01. A Participant shall not forfeit any portion of his Profit Sharing
Account, Special Contribution Account or Matching Account for any other reason
or cause except as expressly provided by this Section 5.03.


   47


         SECTION 5.04. CASH-OUT DISTRIBUTIONS TO PARTIALLY-VESTED PARTICIPANTS.
If, pursuant to Article VI, a partially-vested Participant receives a "CASH-OUT
DISTRIBUTION" before he incurs a Forfeiture Break in Service, the Cash-out
Distribution will result in an immediate forfeiture of the nonvested portion of
the Participant's Account Balance derived from Employer contributions. A
partially-vested Participant is a Participant whose Nonforfeitable Percentage
determined under Section 5.01 is less than 100%. A Cash-out Distribution is a
distribution of the entire present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
Account Balance.

         A "deemed" Cash-out Distribution rule applies to a 0% vested
Participant. A 0% vested Participant is a Participant whose Account Balance is
entirely forfeitable at the time of his Separation from Service. If the
Participant's Account is not entitled to an allocation of Employer contributions
or Participant forfeitures for the Plan Year in which he has a Separation from
Service, the Committee will apply the deemed Cash-out Distribution rule as if
the 0% vested Participant received a Cash-out Distribution on the date of the
Participant's Separation from Service. If the Participant's Account is entitled
to an allocation of Employer contributions or Participant forfeitures for the
Plan Year in which he has a Separation from Service, the Committee will apply
the deemed Cash-out Distribution rule as if the 0% vested Participant received a
Cash-out Distribution on the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after
his Separation from Service. For purposes of applying the restoration provisions
of Section 5.05, the Committee will treat the 0% vested Participant as repaying
his Cash-out Distribution on the first date of his re-employment with the
Employer.

         SECTION 5.05. RESTORATION OF FORFEITED PORTION OF ACCOUNT. A
Participant who is re-employed after receiving a Cash-out Distribution (or
deemed Cash-out Distribution) of the Nonforfeitable percentage of his Account
shall have the right to repay the Trustee in cash the entire amount of the
Cash-out Distribution he received, if the Committee must restore his Account
under the requirements of this Section 5.05.

         A.       RESTORATION AND CONDITIONS UPON RESTORATION. Subject to the
                  conditions of this subsection, if the Participant makes the
                  Cash-out Distribution repayment, the Committee shall restore
                  his Account attributable to Employer contributions to the same
                  dollar amount as the dollar amount of such portion of his
                  Account on the Accounting Date, or other Valuation Date,
                  immediately preceding the date of the Cash-out Distribution
                  (or deemed Cash-out Distribution), unadjusted for any gains or
                  losses occurring subsequent to that Accounting Date, or other
                  Valuation Date. Notwithstanding such repayment, the Committee
                  shall not restore a re-employed Participant's Account under
                  the immediately preceding sentence if:

                  (i)      The Participant's Account was 100% Nonforfeitable at
                           the time of the Cash-out Distribution; or

                  (ii)     The Participant incurred a Forfeiture Break in
                           Service. This condition shall apply only if repayment
                           is not made before the earlier of five years after
                           the first date on which the Participant is
                           re-employed by the Employer, or the close of the
                           first period of five consecutive Breaks in Service
                           commencing after the Cash-out Distribution.

         B.       TIME AND METHOD OF RESTORATION. If neither of the two
                  conditions preventing restoration of the Participant's Account
                  applies, the Committee shall restore the Participant's Account
                  as of the Plan Year Accounting Date coincident with or
                  immediately following

   48

                  the repayment. To restore the Participant's Account, the
                  Committee, to the extent necessary, shall allocate to the
                  Participant's Account:

                  (i)      First, the amount, if any, of Participant forfeitures
                           the Committee would otherwise allocate under Section
                           3.17; and

                  (ii)     Second, the Employer contribution for the Plan Year
                           to the extent made under a discretionary formula.

                  To the extent the amount(s) available for restoration for a
                  particular Plan Year are insufficient to enable the Committee
                  to make the required restoration, the Employer shall
                  contribute, without regard to any requirement or condition of
                  Section 3.03, such additional amount as is necessary to enable
                  the Committee to make the required restoration. If, for a
                  particular Plan Year, the Committee must restore the Account
                  of more than one re-employed Participant, then the Committee
                  shall make the restoration allocation(s) to each such
                  Participant's Account in the same proportion that a
                  Participant's restored amount for the Plan Year bears to the
                  restored amount for the Plan Year of all re-employed
                  Participants. The Committee shall not take into account the
                  allocation(s) under this Section 5.05 in applying the
                  limitation on allocations under Article IV.

         C.       SEGREGATED ACCOUNT FOR REPAID AMOUNT. Until the Committee
                  restores the Participant's Account, the Trustee shall, at the
                  direction of the Company or the Committee, invest the amount
                  the Participant has repaid in a segregated Account maintained
                  solely for that Participant. The Trustee shall invest the
                  amount in the Participant's segregated Account in federally
                  insured interest-bearing savings account(s), time deposit(s),
                  or similar investments, including a money market or similar
                  fund currently offered as an investment option under the
                  Trust. Until commingled with the balance of the Trust Fund on
                  the date the Committee restores the Participant's Account, the
                  Participant's segregated Account shall remain a part of the
                  Trust, but it alone shall share in any income it earns and it
                  alone shall bear any expense or loss it incurs. The Company or
                  the Committee shall direct the Trustee to repay to the
                  Participant, as soon as is administratively practicable, the
                  full amount of the Participant's segregated Account, if the
                  Committee determines that one or more of the conditions of
                  subsection A of this Section 5.05 prevents restoration as of
                  the applicable Accounting Date, notwithstanding the
                  Participant's repayment.

         SECTION 5.06. TRANSFER BETWEEN CLASSES OF EMPLOYEES. For purposes of
vesting, in the case of an Employee who transfers from a Part-time Employee
classification to a class of Employees whose Service is determined on an elapsed
time basis, the Employee shall receive credit for a Period of Service consisting
of (a) a number of years equal to the number of Years of Service credited to the
Employee before the Plan Year during which the transfer occurs, and (b) the
greater of (i) the Period of Service that would be credited to the Employee
under the elapsed time method for his Service during the entire Plan Year in
which the transfer occurs or (ii) the Service taken into account under the hours
counting method as of the date of the transfer. In addition, the Employee shall
receive credit for Service subsequent to the transfer commencing on the day
after the last day of the Plan Year in which the transfer occurs.

         In the case of an Employee who transfers from a class of Employees
whose Service is determined on an elapsed time basis to a Part-time Employee
classification, the Employee shall receive credit, as of the date of transfer,
for a number of Years of Service equal to the number of one-year Periods of
Service credited to the Employee as of the date of transfer, and the

   49


Employee shall receive credit, in the Plan Year which includes the date of the
transfer, for a number of Hours of Service determined by applying the
equivalency set forth in Labor Reg. Section 2530.200b-3(e)(1)(i) (which credits
ten Hours of Service) to any fractional part of a year credited to the Employee
under this Section as of the date of the transfer. Such equivalency shall apply
to all similarly situated Employees.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                     TIME AND METHOD OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS


         SECTION 6.01. RETIREMENT. Upon termination of a Participant's
employment for any reason after attaining Normal Retirement Age, the Company or
the Committee shall direct the Trustee to commence payment of the Participant's
Account to him (or to his Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased), in
accordance with the provisions of this Article VI, as soon as administratively
practicable but not later than 60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which
the Participant's employment terminates. The form of payment shall be the same
as for other Separation from Service distributions, as set forth in Section 6.02
and Sections 6.04, 6.05 and 6.06. A Participant who remains in the employ of the
Employer after attaining Normal Retirement Age shall continue to participate in
Employer contributions.

         SECTION 6.02. DISTRIBUTION UPON SEPARATION FROM SERVICE PRIOR TO NORMAL
RETIREMENT AGE. Upon a Participant's Separation from Service prior to attaining
Normal Retirement Age (for any reason other than death), the Committee, subject
to the requirements of this Section 6.02, shall direct the Trustee to commence
payment to the Participant of the value of his Nonforfeitable Account Balance as
provided in this Section 6.02. The following rules and definitions shall apply
to any such distribution:

         A.       "CASH-OUT DISTRIBUTION." A Cash-out Distribution is a lump sum
                  distribution of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account
                  Balance.

         B.       CONSENT. The Participant must consent in writing to the
                  Committee's direction to the Trustee to make a distribution to
                  the Participant and to the form of the distribution if: (i)
                  the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance on the date
                  the distribution commences exceeds $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan
                  Years beginning before August 6, 1997), and (ii) the Committee
                  directs the Trustee to make a distribution to the Participant
                  prior to his attaining the later of Normal Retirement Age or
                  age 62. Furthermore, the Participant's spouse must consent in
                  writing to the distribution if: (i) the Committee must obtain
                  the Participant's consent; and (ii) the qualified joint and
                  survivor annuity provisions of Code Section 401(a)(11) apply
                  to the distribution.

                  The consent of the Participant, and the Participant's spouse,
                  if applicable, shall be obtained in writing within the 90-day
                  period ending on the "ANNUITY STARTING DATE." The Annuity
                  Starting Date is the first day of the first period for which
                  an amount is paid as an annuity or in any other form. The Plan
                  Administrator shall notify the Participant and the
                  Participant's spouse of the right to defer any distribution
                  until the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance is no
                  longer immediately distributable. Such notification shall
                  include a general description of the material features, and an
                  explanation of the relative values of, the optional forms of
                  benefit available under the Plan in a manner that would
                  satisfy the notice requirements of Code Section 417(a)(3), and
                  shall be provided no less than 30 days and no more than 90
                  days prior to the Annuity Starting Date. However, if the
                  Participant, after having received this notice, affirmatively
                  elects a distribution, such distribution may commence less
                  than 30 days after the notice was provided.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the Participant need
                  consent to the commencement of a distribution in the form of a
                  qualified joint and survivor annuity while the Account

   51


                  balance is immediately distributable. (Furthermore, if payment
                  in the form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity is not
                  required with respect to the Participant pursuant to Code
                  Section 417, only the Participant need consent to the
                  distribution of an Account balance that is immediately
                  distributable.) Neither the consent of the Participant nor the
                  Participant's spouse shall be required to the extent that a
                  distribution is required to satisfy Section 401(a)(9) or
                  Section 415 of the Code. An Account balance is immediately
                  distributable if any part of the Account balance could be
                  distributed to the Participant (or the surviving spouse)
                  before the Participant attains, or would have attained if not
                  deceased, the later of Normal Retirement Age or age 62.

         C.       TIME OF DISTRIBUTION OF ACCOUNT BALANCE. Upon Separation from
                  Service, other than for death, before Normal Retirement Age,
                  the Trustee shall, subject to the foregoing consent
                  requirements, distribute the Participant's Account balance as
                  follows:

                  (i)      If the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance
                           on the date the distribution commences is $5,000 or
                           less ($3,500 or less for Plan Years beginning before
                           August 6, 1997), the Trustee shall pay such
                           Nonforfeitable Account Balance to the Participant in
                           the form of a single, lump sum Cash-out Distribution
                           as soon as administratively practicable after the
                           Participant's Separation from Service.

                  (ii)     If the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance
                           on the date the distribution commences is greater
                           than $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning before
                           August 6, 1997), the Trustee shall pay such
                           Nonforfeitable Account Balance in the form of a
                           qualified joint and survivor annuity in accordance
                           with Section 6.04, unless the Participant makes a
                           valid waiver election under Section 6.05 and elects
                           an alternative form of distribution. The distribution
                           shall be made as soon as administratively practicable
                           after the close of the Plan Year within which the
                           Participant's Separation from Service occurred,
                           unless the Participant (and his spouse, if
                           applicable) do not consent to such immediate
                           distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
                           distributions in the form of a qualified joint and
                           survivor annuity shall not apply to any Employee who
                           becomes a Participant on or after July 1, 1998.
                           Distributions in the form of a qualified joint and
                           survivor annuity shall also not apply to (a) those
                           Participants who previously participated in a Merging
                           Plan, other than the Packaging Coordinators, Inc.
                           Money Purchase Pension Plan or the Packaging
                           Coordinators, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan, and whose
                           Account under such plan was merged into the Plan
                           effective July 1, 1998, and (b) certain other
                           individuals as may be identified on an Appendix
                           hereto.

         D.       DEFERRAL OF DISTRIBUTION OF ACCOUNT BALANCE UNTIL NORMAL
                  RETIREMENT AGE. If the Participant (and, if applicable, the
                  Participant's spouse) does not file his written consent (if
                  required) with the Trustee within the reasonable period of
                  time stated in the consent form, the Trustee shall continue to
                  hold the Participant's Account in trust until the close of the
                  Plan Year in which the Participant attains Normal Retirement
                  Age. At that time, the Trustee shall commence payment of the
                  Participant's Nonforfeitable value of his Account in
                  accordance with the provisions of this Article VI; provided,
                  however, if the Participant dies after terminating employment
                  but prior to attaining Normal Retirement Age, the Committee,
                  upon notice of the death, shall direct the Trustee to commence
                  payment of the Participant's Nonforfeitable value of his
                  Account to his Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions
                  of Section 6.08.

   52


                  A Participant who has elected to delay receiving a
                  distribution of his Account may elect to receive a
                  distribution of his Nonforfeitable Account Balance as soon as
                  administratively practicable following any subsequent
                  Valuation Date by properly completing the appropriate
                  distribution election forms or procedures. If no such election
                  is made, the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance
                  shall be paid as provided in Section 6.01.

         SECTION 6.03. OTHER RULES GOVERNING THE TIME OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS.

         A.       MINIMUM LEGAL DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. Unless the
                  Participant elects otherwise in writing, the Company or the
                  Committee shall direct the Trustee to commence distribution of
                  a Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance not later than
                  60 days after the close of the Plan Year in which the later of
                  the following events occurs:

                  (i)      The date the Participant attains Normal Retirement
                           Age; or

                  (ii)     The date the Participant dies, becomes disabled, or
                           otherwise terminates Service (employment) with the
                           Employer.


   53


                  In no event shall the Company or the Committee direct the
                  Trustee to commence distribution, nor shall the Participant
                  elect to have distribution commence, later than the "Required
                  Beginning Date," as defined below. Furthermore, once
                  distributions have begun to a "Five-percent Owner" under this
                  Section, they must continue to be distributed, even if the
                  Participant ceases to be a Five-percent Owner in a subsequent
                  year.

         B.       "REQUIRED BEGINNING DATE." For purposes of this Article VI,
                  for any Participant who is not a Five-percent Owner (as
                  defined in Code Section 416(i)), the Required Beginning Date
                  is the April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the
                  calendar year in which the Participant attains age 70 1/2, or
                  the calendar year in which the Participant retires. For any
                  Participant who is at least a Five-percent Owner (as defined
                  in Code Section 416(i)), the Required Beginning Date is the
                  April 1 immediately following the calendar year in which the
                  Participant attains age 70 1/2, regardless of whether the
                  Participant has retired.

         C.       In no event shall the Committee direct the Trustee to commence
                  payment later than the time prescribed by this Article VI or
                  in a form not permitted under Article VI. The Committee shall
                  make its determinations under this Article VI in a
                  nondiscriminatory, consistent and uniform manner. If the
                  Committee directs the Trustee to commence payment to the
                  Participant under this Article VI, it shall provide the
                  Participant (and, if applicable, the Participant's spouse)
                  with the appropriate form to consent to the distribution
                  direction, if required.

         SECTION 6.04. METHOD OF PAYMENT OF BENEFITS UPON NORMAL RETIREMENT OR
SEPARATION FROM SERVICE (OTHER THAN DUE TO DEATH) - ANNUITY DISTRIBUTIONS TO
CERTAIN PARTICIPANTS. The provisions of this Section and Section 6.05 shall
apply only to those Employees who participated in the Plan, the Packaging
Coordinators, Inc. Money Purchase Pension Plan or the Packaging Coordinators,
Inc. Profit Sharing Plan prior to July 1, 1998, and to certain other individuals
as may be identified on an Appendix hereto. The Company or the Committee shall
direct the Trustee to distribute the Nonforfeitable Account Balance of a
Participant to whom this Section applies in the form of a "QUALIFIED JOINT AND
SURVIVOR ANNUITY," unless the Participant makes a valid waiver election
(described in Section 6.05) within the 90-day period ending on the "ANNUITY
STARTING DATE." The Annuity Starting Date means the first day of the first
period for which an amount is payable as an annuity or, in the case of a benefit
not payable in the form of an annuity, the first day on which all events have
occurred that entitle the Participant to such benefit. A Qualified Joint and
Survivor Annuity is an immediate annuity that is purchasable from a commercial
insurer with the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance and which is
payable for the life of the Participant with, if the Participant is married on
the Annuity Starting Date, a survivor annuity for the life of the Participant's
surviving spouse equal to 50% of the amount of the annuity payable during the
joint lives of the Participant and his spouse. The Company or the Committee
shall direct the Trustee to pay the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance
in a lump sum, in lieu of a Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, if the
Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance at the time distribution commences
is not greater than $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning before August 6,
1997).

         If the Participant has in effect a valid waiver election regarding the
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity, the Company or the Committee shall direct
the Trustee to distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance in
accordance with Section 6.06. For purposes of applying this Article VI, the
Committee shall treat a former spouse as the Participant's spouse or surviving
spouse to the extent provided under a qualified domestic relations order (as
defined in Code Section 414(p)).

   54

         SECTION 6.05. WAIVER ELECTION - QUALIFIED JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY.
With respect only to those Employees subject to Section 6.04, the Committee
shall, no less than 30 days (or seven days, if the 30-day period is waived by
the Participant and the Participant's spouse, if applicable), nor more than 90
days before the Participant's Annuity Starting Date, provide the Participant a
written explanation of the terms and conditions of the Qualified Joint and
Survivor Annuity, the Participant's right to make, and the effect of, an
election to waive the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity form of benefit, the
rights of the Participant's spouse regarding the waiver election, and the
Participant's right to make, and the effect of, a revocation of a waiver
election.

         A married Participant's waiver election is not valid unless:

         A.       The Participant's spouse (to whom the survivor annuity is
                  payable under the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity) has
                  consented in writing to the waiver election, the spouse's
                  consent acknowledges the effect of the election, and a notary
                  public or a member of the Committee (or its representative)
                  witnesses the spouse's consent; and

         B.       If the spouse is not the Participant's sole primary
                  Beneficiary, the spouse consents to the Participant's
                  Beneficiary designation or to any change in the Participant's
                  Beneficiary designation, or the spouse expressly permits
                  designations by the Participant without any further spousal
                  consent.

         A Participant's waiver of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity form
of benefit shall not be effective unless the election designates a form of
benefit payment that may not be changed without spousal consent (or the spouse
expressly permits designations by the Participant without any further spousal
consent). Any consent by a spouse obtained under this provision or establishment
that the consent of a spouse may not be obtained shall be effective only with
respect to such spouse. A consent that permits designations by the Participant
without any requirement of further consent by such spouse must acknowledge that
the spouse has the right to limit consent to a specific beneficiary, and a
specific form of benefit where applicable, and that the spouse voluntarily
elects to relinquish either or both of such rights. A revocation of a prior
waiver may be made by a Participant without the consent of the spouse at any
time before the commencement of benefits. The number of revocations shall not be
limited. No consent obtained under this provision shall be valid unless the
Participant has received notice as provided in this Section 6.05. The spouse's
consent to a waiver of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity is irrevocable
unless the Participant revokes the waiver election.

         The Committee may accept as valid a waiver election that does not
satisfy the spousal consent requirements if the Committee establishes that the
Participant does not have a spouse, the Committee is not able to locate the
Participant's spouse, or other circumstances exist under which the Secretary of
the Treasury will excuse the consent requirement.

         SECTION 6.06. OPTIONAL FORMS OF BENEFIT PAYMENTS. Subject to Sections
6.04 and 6.05, if applicable, a Participant may elect to receive payment of the
Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance under one of the following methods:

         A.       By payment in a single lump sum in cash (and, where
                  applicable, in Shares) based upon the value of the Account on
                  the Valuation Date coinciding with or immediately preceding
                  the date the distribution is requested.

         B.       By payment in substantially equal monthly or quarterly
                  installments over a fixed, reasonable period of time, not
                  exceeding (i) the life expectancy of the Participant, or (ii)

   55

                  the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the Participant
                  and an individual the Participant designates as his
                  Beneficiary.

         To facilitate installment payments under this Section 6.06, the
Committee, in its sole discretion, may direct the Trustee to segregate all or
any part of the Participant's Account in a separate account. A segregated
account shall remain a part of the Trust, but it alone shall share in any income
it earns, and it alone shall bear any expense or loss it incurs.

         SECTION 6.07. MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. Neither the Company
nor the Committee shall direct the Trustee to distribute the Participant's
Nonforfeitable Account Balance, nor shall the Participant elect to have the
Trustee distribute his Nonforfeitable Account Balance, under a method of payment
that, as of the Required Beginning Date, does not satisfy the minimum
distribution requirements established by Code Section 401(a)(9) and that is not
consistent with applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder. The following
minimum distribution rules shall apply on or after the Required Beginning Date:

         A.       If a Participant's benefit is to be distributed over (i) a
                  period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the
                  Participant or the joint life and last survivor expectancy of
                  the Participant and the Participant's Beneficiary, or (ii) a
                  period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the
                  Beneficiary, the amount required to be distributed for each
                  calendar year, beginning with distributions for the first
                  distribution calendar year, must at least equal the quotient
                  obtained by dividing the Participant's Account balance as of
                  the last Valuation Date preceding the distribution calendar
                  year by the applicable life expectancy.

         B.       For calendar years beginning before January 1, 1989, if the
                  Participant's spouse is not the Beneficiary, the method of
                  distribution selected must assure that at least 50% of the
                  present value of the amount available for distribution is paid
                  within the life expectancy of the Participant.

         C.       For calendar years beginning after December 31, 1988, the
                  amount to be distributed each year, beginning with
                  distributions for the first distribution calendar year, shall
                  not be less than the quotient obtained by dividing the
                  Participant's Account Balance as of the last Valuation Date
                  preceding the distribution calendar year by the lesser of (i)
                  the applicable life expectancy, or (ii) if the Participant's
                  spouse is not the Beneficiary, the applicable divisor
                  determined from the table set forth in Q&A-4 of Section
                  1.401(a)(9)-2 of proposed Treasury Regulations. Distributions
                  after the death of the Participant shall be distributed using
                  the applicable life expectancy in subsection A above as the
                  relevant divisor without regard to Proposed Regulations
                  Section 1.401(a)(9)-2.

         D.       The minimum distribution required for the Participant's first
                  distribution calendar year must be made on or before the
                  Participant's Required Beginning Date. The minimum
                  distribution for other calendar years, including the minimum
                  distribution for the distribution calendar year in which the
                  Participant's Required Beginning Date occurs, must be made on
                  or before December 31 of that distribution calendar year.

         E.       The Committee may compute the minimum distribution for a
                  calendar year subsequent to the first calendar year for which
                  the Plan requires a minimum distribution by redetermining the
                  applicable life expectancy. However, the Committee may not
                  redetermine the joint life and last survivor expectancy of the
                  Participant and a nonspouse

   56

                  Beneficiary in a manner that takes into account any adjustment
                  to a life expectancy other than the Participant's life
                  expectancy. The Committee shall use the life expectancy
                  multiples under Treasury Regulations Section 1.72-9 for
                  purposes of applying this Section.

         SECTION 6.08. DISTRIBUTIONS UPON DEATH. Upon the death of the
Participant, the Company or the Committee shall direct the Trustee to pay the
Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance in accordance with Code Section
401(a)(9) and this Section 6.08.

         A.       DISTRIBUTION BEGINNING BEFORE DEATH. If the Participant's
                  death occurs after the Trustee has commenced payment of the
                  Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance, the Company or
                  the Committee shall direct the Trustee to complete payment
                  over a period that does not exceed the payment period that had
                  commenced.

         B.       DISTRIBUTION BEGINNING AFTER DEATH OF EMPLOYEES WHO BECOME
                  PARTICIPANTS ON OR AFTER JULY 1, 1998. With respect to those
                  Employees who begin participating in the Plan on or after July
                  1, 1998, if the Participant's death occurs prior to his
                  Annuity Starting Date, the distribution of the Participant's
                  entire Nonforfeitable Account Balance shall be made to the
                  Participant's Beneficiary in a single lump sum payment or in
                  installments over no more than five years, as elected by the
                  Beneficiary.

                  The Company or the Committee shall direct the Trustee to
                  distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance to
                  the Participant's Beneficiary as soon as practicable after
                  notification of the Participant's death. However, if the
                  Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance at the time of
                  distribution exceeds $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning
                  before August 6, 1997), neither the Company nor the Committee
                  shall direct the Trustee to distribute the Account to the
                  Participant's Beneficiary prior to the date the Participant
                  would have attained the later of Normal Retirement Age or age
                  62, without the written consent of the Beneficiary if the
                  Beneficiary is the Participant's surviving spouse. If the
                  Beneficiary is not the Participant's surviving spouse, the
                  Beneficiary must elect to have distribution of the entire
                  amount payable completed on or before the last day of the
                  calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the date
                  of the Participant's death.

         C.       DISTRIBUTION BEGINNING AFTER DEATH OF CERTAIN EMPLOYEES
                  PARTICIPATING PRIOR TO JULY 1, 1998. This subsection C and the
                  following subsections D, E and F, shall apply only to those
                  Employees who participated in the Plan, the Packaging
                  Coordinators, Inc. Money Purchase Pension Plan or the
                  Packaging Coordinators, Inc. Profit Sharing Plan prior to July
                  1, 1998, and to certain other individuals as may be identified
                  on an Appendix hereto. If a married Participant dies prior to
                  his Annuity Starting Date, the Company or the Committee shall
                  direct the Trustee to distribute the married Participant's
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance to the Participant's surviving
                  spouse as a "PRERETIREMENT SURVIVOR ANNUITY," unless the
                  Participant has made a valid waiver election pursuant to
                  subsection D. An unmarried Participant's Nonforfeitable
                  Account Balance shall be payable to his designated
                  Beneficiary.

                  The Preretirement Survivor Annuity is an annuity payable to
                  the Participant's surviving spouse for life. The Participant's
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance shall be applied to the
                  purchase of an annuity for the surviving spouse's life. The
                  surviving spouse may elect to have such annuity distributed
                  within a reasonable period after the Participant's death.

   57

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant's
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance at the time the distribution
                  commences is not greater than $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years
                  beginning before August 6, 1997), the Participant's
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance shall be paid in a single lump
                  sum to the Participant's surviving spouse or other Beneficiary
                  in lieu of a Preretirement Survivor Annuity as soon as
                  administratively practicable after his death.

                  If the Participant is unmarried or has waived the
                  Preretirement Survivor Annuity in accordance with subsection
                  D, and dies before distribution of his Nonforfeitable Account
                  Balance begins, distribution of the Participant's entire
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance shall be made in a single lump
                  sum payment in cash or in equal or nearly equal quarterly
                  installments over a fixed period not exceeding (i) if the
                  Beneficiary is the deceased Participant's surviving spouse,
                  the Beneficiary's remaining life expectancy at the time
                  installment payments begin, or (ii) if the Beneficiary is
                  other than the deceased Participant's surviving spouse, five
                  years from the Participant's death.

                  If the designated Beneficiary is the Participant's surviving
                  spouse, the date such distributions are required to begin
                  shall not be earlier than the later of (i) December 31 of the
                  calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which
                  the Participant died, or (ii) December 31 of the calendar year
                  in which the Participant would have attained age 70 1/2. If
                  the Beneficiary is not the Participant's surviving spouse,
                  distribution of the entire amount payable must be completed on
                  or before the last day of the calendar year which contains the
                  fifth anniversary of the date of the Participant's death.

                  A Participant may also elect the form and timing of payment of
                  his Nonforfeitable Account Balance to his Beneficiaries. If
                  the Participant has not made an election concerning the manner
                  of payment to his Beneficiary by the time of his death, the
                  Participant's surviving spouse or designated Beneficiary must
                  elect the method of distribution no later than the time when
                  distributions would be required to begin under this subsection
                  C. If the Participant has no surviving spouse or designated
                  Beneficiary, or if the designated Beneficiary does not elect a
                  method of distribution, distribution of the Participant's
                  entire Nonforfeitable Account Balance must be completed by
                  December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth
                  anniversary of the Participant's death.

         D.       WAIVER ELECTION FOR MARRIED PARTICIPANTS. The Committee shall
                  provide a written explanation of the Preretirement Survivor
                  Annuity to each married Participant to whom this subsection
                  applies, within whichever of the following periods ends last:
                  (i) the period beginning on the first day of the Plan Year in
                  which the Participant attains age 32 and ending on the last
                  day of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 34;
                  (ii) a reasonable period after an Employee becomes a
                  Participant; (iii) a reasonable period after the joint and
                  survivor rules become applicable to the Participant; or (iv) a
                  reasonable period after a fully subsidized Preretirement
                  Survivor Annuity no longer satisfies the requirements for a
                  fully subsidized benefit. A reasonable period described in
                  clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) is the period beginning one year
                  before and ending one year after the applicable event. If the
                  Participant separates from Service before attaining age 35,
                  clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) do not apply, and the
                  Committee shall provide the written explanation within the
                  period beginning one year before and ending one year after the
                  Separation from Service. The written explanation shall
                  describe, in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulations,
                  the terms and conditions of the Preretirement

   58

                  Survivor Annuity in a manner which is comparable to the
                  explanation of the Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity
                  required under Section 6.05. The Plan does not limit the
                  number of times the Participant may revoke a waiver of the
                  Preretirement Survivor Annuity or make a new waiver during the
                  election period.

                  A Participant's waiver election of the Preretirement Survivor
                  Annuity is not valid unless (a) the Participant makes the
                  waiver election no earlier than the first day of the Plan Year
                  in which he attains age 35, and (b) the Participant's spouse
                  (to whom the Preretirement Survivor Annuity is payable)
                  satisfies the consent requirements described in this Article
                  VI, except the spouse need not consent to the form of benefit
                  payable to the designated Beneficiary. The spouse's consent to
                  the waiver of the Preretirement Survivor Annuity is
                  irrevocable, unless the Participant revokes the waiver
                  election.

                  Notwithstanding the time of election requirement of clause (a)
                  above, a Participant who will not yet attain age 35 as of the
                  end of any current Plan Year may make a special qualified
                  election to waive the Preretirement Survivor Annuity for the
                  period beginning on the date of such election and ending on
                  the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant will
                  attain age 35. Such election will not be valid unless the
                  Participant receives a written explanation of the
                  Preretirement Survivor Annuity in a manner which is comparable
                  to the explanation required under Section 6.05. Preretirement
                  Survivor Annuity coverage will be automatically reinstated as
                  of the first day of the Plan Year in which the Participant
                  attains age 35. Any new waiver on or after such date shall be
                  subject to the full requirements of this Section 6.08.

         E.       For purposes of this Section 6.08, any amount paid to a child
                  of the Participant will be treated as if it had been paid to
                  the surviving spouse if the amount becomes payable to the
                  surviving spouse when the child reaches the age of majority.

         F.       The Committee shall use the life expectancy multiples under
                  Treasury Regulation Section 1.72-9 for purposes of applying
                  this Section. The Committee may recalculate the life
                  expectancy of the Participant's surviving spouse not more
                  frequently than annually, but may not recalculate the life
                  expectancy of a nonspouse designated Beneficiary after the
                  Trustee commences payment to the designated Beneficiary.

         SECTION 6.09. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY. A Participant may, from time
to time, designate in writing a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries, contingently or
successively, to whom the Trustee shall pay his Account in the event of his
death. A Participant's Beneficiary designation shall not be valid unless the
Participant's spouse consents (in accordance with the requirements of Code
Section 417) to the Beneficiary designation. A Participant's Beneficiary
designation does not require spousal consent if the Participant's spouse is the
Participant's designated Beneficiary. The Committee shall prescribe the form for
the written designation of Beneficiary and, upon the Participant's filing the
form with the Committee, the Participant shall effectively revoke all
designations filed prior to that date by the same Participant.

         SECTION 6.10. FAILURE OF BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION. If a Participant
fails to name a Beneficiary in accordance with Section 6.09, or if the
Beneficiary named by a Participant predeceases him, then the Trustee shall pay
the Participant's Account in a single lump sum to the Participant's surviving
spouse, if any, and if there is no surviving spouse, to the Participant's
estate.

   59


         If the Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies before complete
distribution of the Participant's Account, the remaining portion of the
Participant's Account shall be paid in a lump sum to any contingent
Beneficiaries named by the Participant or, if there are none, to the legal
representative of the estate of such deceased Beneficiary. The Company or the
Committee shall direct the Trustee as to the method and to whom the Trustee
shall make payment under this Section 6.10.

         SECTION 6.11. SPECIAL RULES FOR TRANSFER ACCOUNTS. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Article VI to the contrary, with respect to any Participant
who has one or more Transfer Accounts consisting in whole or in part of Transfer
Contributions which, by operation of relevant law and regulation (including, but
not limited to, ERISA and the Code), must be distributed or made available under
the same terms and conditions under which amounts held thereunder were
previously held (prior to their becoming Transfer Contributions), the Committee
shall, upon the written request of the Participant (in the case of optional
forms of benefit), cause the Trustee to distribute or make available such
Transfer Contributions at such times and in such manner as may be so required.

         SECTION 6.12. DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDERS. Nothing
contained in this Plan shall prevent the Trustee, in accordance with the
direction of the Committee, from complying with the provisions of a qualified
domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). This Plan
specifically permits distribution to an alternate payee under a qualified
domestic relations order at any time, irrespective of whether the Participant
has attained his earliest retirement age (as defined under Code Section 414(p))
under the Plan. A distribution to an alternate payee prior to the Participant's
attainment of the earliest retirement age is available only if the order
specifies distribution at that time or permits an agreement between the Plan and
the alternate payee to authorize such an earlier distribution. In addition, if
the present value of the alternate payee's benefits under the Plan exceeds
$5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning before August 6, 1997), and the order
requires, the alternate payee must consent to any distribution occurring prior
to the Participant's attainment of the earliest retirement age. Nothing in this
Section 6.12 gives a Participant the right to receive a distribution at a time
not permitted under the Plan, nor does this Section 6.12 give the alternate
payee the right to receive a form of payment not permitted under the Plan.

         The Committee shall establish reasonable procedures to determine the
qualified status of a domestic relations order. Upon receiving a domestic
relations order, the Committee promptly shall notify the Participant and any
alternate payee named in the order, in writing, of the receipt of the order and
the Plan's procedures for determining the qualified status of the order. Within
a reasonable period of time after receiving the domestic relations order, the
Committee shall determine the qualified status of the order and shall notify the
Participant and each alternate payee, in writing, of its determination. The
Committee shall provide notice under this paragraph by mailing to the
individual's address specified in the domestic relations order, or in a manner
consistent with Labor Regulations.

         If any portion of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account Balance is
payable during the period the Committee is making its determination of the
qualified status of the domestic relations order, the Company or the Committee
shall direct the Trustee to segregate the amounts payable in a separate account
and to invest the segregated account solely in fixed income investments or to
maintain a separate bookkeeping account of said amounts. If the Committee
determines the order is a qualified domestic relations order within 18 months of
the first date on which payments were due under the terms of the order, the
Company or the Committee shall direct the Trustee to distribute the separate
account in accordance with the order. If the Committee does not make its
determination of the qualified status of the order within the above-described
18-month period, the Company or the Committee shall direct the Trustee to
distribute the segregated account in the manner the Plan would distribute it if
the order did not

   60


exist, and shall apply the order prospectively if the Committee later determines
the order is a qualified domestic relations order.

         To the extent it is not inconsistent with the provisions of the
qualified domestic relations order, the Committee may direct the Trustee to
invest any partitioned amount in a segregated subaccount or separate account and
to invest the account in the money market investment option or in other fixed
income investments. A segregated subaccount shall remain a part of the Trust,
but it alone shall share in any income it earns, and it alone shall bear any
expense or loss it incurs.

         The Trustee shall make any payment or distributions required under this
Section 6.12 by separate benefit checks or other separate distribution to the
alternate payee(s).

         SECTION 6.13. RE-EMPLOYMENT OF PARTICIPANTS RECEIVING PAYMENTS. In the
event that a Participant who is receiving installment payments is re-employed by
the Company, such Participant shall continue to receive payments from his
Account in accordance with the method of payment in effect prior to his
re-employment unless such method is changed. Payments shall be drawn from his
entire Account, including any contributions allocated to his Account after his
re-employment.

         SECTION 6.14. FORM OF PAYMENTS. Installment payments may be made in
cash. Lump sum payments may be made in cash or in Shares, if applicable. A
Participant (or Beneficiary or personal representative, as applicable) making
application for distribution of his Account shall be entitled to elect, in a
writing submitted to the Committee on forms prescribed by it, to have all those
Shares then held in or thereafter credited to his Account distributed to him in
that form. If such an election is made, the Company or the Committee shall
thereupon cause any Plan distribution made under this Article VI to consist (in
part) of the number of Shares (excluding any fractional share interest which
shall be paid in cash) credited to the Participant's total Account, but only as
part of any lump sum distribution payable hereunder, and if all such
Participant's Shares then being held in the Trust Fund (fractional interests
excepted) are to be distributed. If a Participant or Beneficiary elects an
annuity form of distribution, a nontransferable annuity contract shall be
purchased from a commercial insurer with the Participant's Nonforfeitable
Account Balance and distributed to the Participant or Beneficiary.

         SECTION 6.15. LOST PARTICIPANT OR BENEFICIARY. The Account of a
Participant shall be forfeited if the Committee, after reasonable effort, is
unable to locate the Participant or his Beneficiary to whom payment is due. The
amount of the forfeiture shall reduce the Employer's Profit Sharing
Contributions, Special Contributions and/or Matching Contributions under
Sections 3.02 and 3.06, as elected by the Employer. However, any such forfeited
Account will be reinstated and become payable if a claim is made by the
Participant or Beneficiary for such Account. The Committee shall prescribe
uniform and non-discriminatory rules for carrying out this provision.

         SECTION 6.16. FACILITY OF PAYMENT. If the Committee deems any person
entitled to receive any amount under the provisions of this Plan to be incapable
of receiving or disbursing the same by reason of minority, illness or infirmity,
mental incompetency, or incapacity of any kind, the Committee may, in its
discretion, direct the Trustee to take any one or more of the following actions:

         A.       To apply such amount directly for the comfort, support and
                  maintenance of such person;

         B.       To reimburse any person for any such support theretofore
                  supplied to the person entitled to receive any such payment;

   61

         C.       To pay such amount to any person selected by the Committee to
                  disburse it for such comfort, support and maintenance,
                  including without limitation, any relative who has undertaken,
                  wholly or partially, the expense of such person's comfort,
                  care and maintenance, or any institution in whose care or
                  custody the person entitled to the amount may be. The
                  Committee may, in its discretion, deposit any amount due to a
                  minor to his credit in any savings or commercial bank of the
                  Committee's choice.

         SECTION 6.17. NO DISTRIBUTION PRIOR TO SEPARATION FROM SERVICE, DEATH
OR DISABILITY. Except as provided below, Compensation Deferrals, Qualified
Non-elective Contributions, and Qualified Matching Contributions, and income
allocable to each, are not distributable to a Participant or his Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries, in accordance with such Participant's or Beneficiary's election,
earlier than upon Separation from Service, death or Disability.

         Such amounts may also be distributed upon:

         A.       Termination of the Plan without the establishment of another
                  defined contribution plan, as defined in the Code and
                  applicable Treasury Regulations.

         B.       The disposition by a corporation to an unrelated corporation
                  of substantially all of the assets (within the meaning of
                  Section 409(d)(2) of the Code) used in a trade or business of
                  such corporation if such corporation continues to maintain
                  this Plan after the disposition, but only with respect to
                  Employees who continue employment with the corporation
                  acquiring such assets.

         C.       The disposition by a corporation to an unrelated entity of
                  such corporation's interest in a subsidiary (within the
                  meaning of Section 409(d)(3) of the Code) if such corporation
                  continues to maintain this Plan, but only with respect to
                  Employees who continue employment with such subsidiary.

         D.       The hardship of the Participant, as described in Section 7.01
                  herein.

         E.       The attainment by the Participant of age 59 1/2, as described
                  in Section 7.03 herein.

         All distributions that may be made pursuant to one or more of the
foregoing distributable events are subject to the spousal and Participant
consent requirements (if applicable) contained in Sections 401(a)(11) and 417 of
the Code.

         SECTION 6.18. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS TRANSFERRED FROM MONEY PURCHASE
PENSION PLAN. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the
extent that any optional form of benefit under the Plan permits a distribution
prior to the employee's retirement, death, Disability, or severance from
employment, and prior to Plan termination, the optional form of benefit is not
available with respect to benefits attributable to assets (including the
post-transfer earnings thereon) and liabilities that are transferred, within the
meaning of Section 414(l) of the Internal Revenue Code, to this Plan from a
money purchase pension plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code (other than any portion of those assets and liabilities
attributable to voluntary employee contributions). The conversion of a plan from
a money purchase pension plan to a profit sharing plan shall be treated as a
transfer subject to Code Section 414(l) for the purpose of this Section.

         SECTION 6.19. WRITTEN INSTRUCTION NOT REQUIRED. Any elections made or
distributions processed under this Article VI may be accomplished through
telephonic or similar

   62


instructions in accordance with the rules and procedures established by the
Committee, to the extent they are consistent with the requirements of the Code
and ERISA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, spousal consents and waivers,
to the extent required, may only be granted in writing.

                                   ARTICLE VII

              WITHDRAWALS; DIRECT ROLLOVERS AND WITHHOLDING; LOANS


         SECTION 7.01. HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS. Subject to the restrictions set
forth in Section 6.18, upon the application of any Participant, the Committee,
in accordance with a uniform, nondiscriminatory policy, may permit such
Participant to withdraw (a) all or a portion of the vested amounts then credited
to his Compensation Deferral Account (excluding all trust earnings credited
thereto) and/or (b) such Participant's interest in his Rollover Account and/or
the portion of his Transfer Account attributable to Code Section 401(k)
compensation deferrals (except with respect to income and earnings credited
thereto) and after-tax contributions, if the withdrawal is necessary due to the
immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant.

         A.       Only distributions made pursuant to conditions arising under
                  the following circumstances shall be conclusively considered
                  to be made on account of immediate and heavy financial need:

                  (i)      Alleviating extraordinary financial hardship arising
                           from deductible medical expenses (within the meaning
                           of Code Section 213(d)) previously incurred by the
                           Participant or his spouse, children or other
                           dependents, or necessary for such persons to obtain
                           such care;

                  (ii)     Purchasing real property (excluding mortgage
                           payments) that is to serve as the principal residence
                           of the Participant;

                  (iii)    Expenditures necessary to prevent eviction from the
                           Participant's principal residence or foreclosure of a
                           mortgage on the same;

                  (iv)     Financing the tuition and related educational fees
                           for the next 12 months of post-secondary education
                           for the Participant, his spouse, his children or
                           other dependents; or

                  (v)      Any other reason deemed to be an immediate and heavy
                           financial need by the Secretary of the Treasury.

         B.       A distribution will be considered to be necessary to satisfy
                  an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant only
                  if:

                  (i)      The Participant has obtained all distributions other
                           than hardship distributions, and all nontaxable
                           loans, currently available under all plans maintained
                           by the Employer;

                  (ii)     All plans maintained by the Employer provide that the
                           Participant's Compensation Deferrals or other
                           Participant contributions will be suspended for 12
                           months after the receipt of the hardship distribution
                           (which this Plan hereby so provides);

                  (iii)    The distribution is not in excess of the amount
                           necessary to satisfy the immediate and heavy
                           financial need, including any amounts necessary to
                           pay

   64


                           any federal, state, or local income taxes or
                           penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the
                           distribution; and

                  (iv)     All plans maintained by the Employer provide that the
                           Participant may not make Compensation Deferrals for
                           the Participant's taxable year immediately following
                           the taxable year of the hardship distribution in
                           excess of the applicable limit under Section 402(g)
                           of the Code for such taxable year less the amount of
                           such Participant's Compensation Deferrals for the
                           taxable year of the hardship distribution (which this
                           Plan hereby so provides).

         C.       A Participant making an application under this Section 7.01
                  shall have the burden of presenting to the Committee evidence
                  of such need, and the Committee shall not permit withdrawal
                  under this Section without first receiving such evidence. If a
                  Participant's application for a hardship withdrawal is
                  approved, the Committee shall then instruct the Trustee to
                  make payment of the approved amount of the hardship withdrawal
                  to the Participant.

         SECTION 7.02. SPECIAL WITHDRAWAL RULES APPLICABLE TO TRANSFER ACCOUNTS.
Notwithstanding any other Plan provision to the contrary, if the Internal
Revenue Service requires distribution to be made (or offered) with respect to
any or all amounts held on behalf of a Participant with respect to a predecessor
or transferor plan, as a condition of preserving the tax-qualified status of
this Plan or of said predecessor or transferor plan, or if a court of competent
jurisdiction issues an order or decree in respect of the Plan or its fiduciaries
which is determined under relevant federal law to be enforceable, and which
compels the distribution of a Participant's Plan interest, the Committee will be
entitled to direct the prompt distribution (or offer of distribution) of such
amounts.

         SECTION 7.03. WITHDRAWALS UPON ATTAINMENT OF AGE 59 1/2. Subject to the
consent requirementS of Article VI, if applicable, a Participant who has
attained age 59 1/2 may elect to make withdrawals (in cash or, if applicable, in
Shares) from the Nonforfeitable portion of his Account in the Plan that is not
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6.18. Any election to begin,
change or cease withdrawals shall be made in accordance with procedures
established by the Committee or in such other manner as permitted by the
Committee. Payment of amounts so requested shall be made within an
administratively reasonable period of time after the withdrawal has been
requested. The Committee may establish other rules of uniform applicability
regarding the timing of and procedures for such withdrawals.


   65


         SECTION 7.04. DIRECT ROLLOVER AND WITHHOLDING RULES.

         A.       Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that
                  would otherwise limit a Distributee's election under this
                  Section, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the
                  manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any
                  portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to
                  an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a
                  Direct Rollover. The Plan Administrator may establish rules
                  and procedures governing the processing of Direct Rollovers
                  and limiting the amount or number of such Direct Rollovers in
                  accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations. Distributions
                  not transferred to an Eligible Retirement Plan in a Direct
                  Rollover shall be subject to income tax withholding as
                  provided under the Code and applicable state and local laws,
                  if any.

         B.       DEFINITIONS

                  (i)      "ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTION." An Eligible
                           Rollover Distribution is any distribution of all or
                           any portion of the balance to the credit of the
                           Distributee, except that an Eligible Rollover
                           Distribution does not include: (a) any distribution
                           that is one of a series of substantially equal
                           periodic payments (not less frequently than annually)
                           made for life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee
                           or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of
                           the Distributee and the Distributee's designated
                           beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years
                           of more; (b) any distribution to the extent such
                           distribution is required under Section 401(a)(9) of
                           the Code; (c) the portion of any distribution that is
                           not includible in gross income (determined without
                           regard to the exclusion for net unrealized
                           appreciation with respect to employer securities);
                           and (d) for distributions on or after January 1,
                           2000, any hardship distribution described in Code
                           Sections 401(k)(2)(B)(I)(IV) or 403(b)(11)(B).

                  (ii)     "ELIGIBLE RETIREMENT PLAN." An Eligible Retirement
                           Plan is an individual retirement account described in
                           Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement
                           annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an
                           annuity plan described in Section 403(a) of the Code,
                           or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of
                           the Code, that accepts the Distributee's Eligible
                           Rollover Distribution. However, in the case of an
                           Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving
                           spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual
                           retirement account or individual retirement annuity.

                  (iii)    "DISTRIBUTEE." A Distributee includes an Employee or
                           former Employee. In addition, the Employee's or
                           former Employee's surviving spouse and the Employee's
                           or former Employee's spouse or former spouse who is
                           the alternate payee under a qualified domestic
                           relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the
                           Code, are Distributees with regard to the interest of
                           the spouse or former spouse.

                  (iv)     "DIRECT ROLLOVER." A Direct Rollover is a payment by
                           the Plan to the Eligible Retirement Plan specified by
                           the Distributee.

         SECTION 7.05. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS. Loans may be granted to any
Participant under the Plan in accordance with applicable rules under the Code
and ERISA, and the provisions of this Section.

   66


         A.       GENERAL RULES. The Committee shall establish the procedures a
                  Participant must follow to request a loan from his
                  Nonforfeitable Account Balance under the Plan. Loans shall be
                  made available to all Participants on a reasonably equivalent
                  basis; provided, however, that loans will not be made
                  available to Former Participants in any event.

                  In no event will the total of any outstanding loan balances
                  made to any Participant, including any interest accrued
                  thereon, when aggregated with corresponding loan balances of
                  the Participant under any other plans of the Employer or any
                  Affiliate, exceed the lesser of (i) or (ii), below:

                  (i)      $50,000, reduced by the excess (if any) of the
                           highest outstanding balance of such loans during the
                           one-year period ending on the day before the date any
                           such loan is made over the outstanding balance of
                           such loans on the date any such loan is made; or

                  (ii)     One-half of the value of the vested portion of the
                           Participant's Account. For purposes of this Section,
                           the value of a Participant's Account shall be
                           determined as of the Valuation Date coinciding with
                           or next preceding the date on which a properly
                           completed loan request is received by the Committee
                           (or its delegate) or the Trustee, as applicable.

                  The minimum amount of any loan shall be $1,000.

         B.       TERM OF LOAN. The term of any loan shall be determined by
                  mutual agreement between the Committee and the Participant.
                  Every Participant who is granted a loan shall receive a
                  statement of the charges and interest rates involved in each
                  loan transaction and periodic statements reflecting the
                  current loan balance and all transactions with respect to that
                  loan to date. Except for loans used to acquire any dwelling
                  unit which within a reasonable time (determined at the time
                  the loan is made) is to be used as the principal residence of
                  the Participant, the term of any loan shall not exceed five
                  years. The term of any loan which within a reasonable time
                  (determined at the time the loan is made) is to be used as the
                  principal residence of the Participant shall not exceed 15
                  years. All loans shall be amortized in level payments made not
                  less frequently than quarterly over the term of the loan, or
                  in accordance with other procedures established by the
                  Employer or the Committee.

         C.       SECURITY. Each loan made hereunder shall be evidenced by a
                  credit agreement with, or a note payable to the order of, the
                  Trustee and shall be secured by adequate collateral.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, no more than one-half
                  of the vested portion of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
                  Account Balance (determined as of the Valuation Date
                  coinciding with or next preceding the date on which the loan
                  is made) shall be used to secure any loan.

         D.       INTEREST. Each Participant loan shall be considered an
                  investment of the Trust, and interest shall be charged thereon
                  at a reasonable rate established by, or in accordance with
                  procedures approved by, the Committee commensurate with the
                  interest rates then being charged by persons in the business
                  of lending money under similar circumstances. Participant
                  loans under this Section will be considered the directed
                  investment of the
   67
         Participant requesting such loan, and interest paid on such loan will
         be allocated to the Account of the Participant-borrower.

E.       REPAYMENT TERMS. The terms and conditions of each loan shall be
         determined by mutual agreement between the Committee and the
         Participant. The Committee shall take all necessary actions to ensure
         that each loan is repaid on schedule by its maturity date, including
         requiring repayment of the loan by payroll deduction whenever possible.
         Subject to the spousal consent provisions of subsection F below, in the
         event a Participant terminates employment or in the event a Participant
         (or his Beneficiary or spouse) elects to receive a distribution from
         the Trust Fund at a time when there is an unpaid balance of a loan
         against such Participant's Account, the Trustee shall deduct the unpaid
         balance of the principal of such loan or any portion thereof, and any
         interest accrued to the date of such deduction, from any payment or
         distribution from the Trust Fund to which such Participant or his
         Beneficiary or spouse may be entitled. If the amount of such payment or
         distribution is not sufficient to repay the outstanding balance of such
         loan and any interest accrued thereon, the Participant (or his estate,
         if applicable) shall be liable for and continue to make payments on any
         balance still due from him.

F.       SPOUSAL CONSENT. Any Participant whose Account is subject to the
         annuity provisions under Section 6.04 must obtain the consent of his
         spouse, if any, within the 90-day period before the time the
         Participant's vested Account is used as collateral security for the
         loan, unless not otherwise required by law. Such consent must be in
         writing, must acknowledge the effect of the loan, and must be witnessed
         by a Plan representative or notary public. A new consent is required if
         the Account balance is used for any increase in the amount of security.

G.       RESTRICTIONS ON LOANS. No Participant shall have more than two loans
         under this Section 7.05 outstanding at the same time. However, if a
         Participant who previously participated in one of the Merging Plans
         which permitted multiple loans has more than two loans outstanding as
         of June 30, 1998, or if a Participant in a plan which subsequently
         merges into this Plan has more than two loans outstanding under such
         merging plan at the date of merger, such Participant may, in accordance
         with the terms of such loans, continue to have more than two such loans
         without violating this provision.

H.       NONDISCRIMINATION. Loans will not be made available to Highly
         Compensated Employees in an amount greater than the amount made
         available to other Employees.

I.       DEFAULT. Failure to make a payment within 90 days of the date payment
         is due will generally constitute a default, unless loan procedures and
         applicable law do not so require. Upon default (or, to the extent
         prohibited by law or by the terms of the Plan until a distributable
         event occurs, upon such event) the Plan Administrator will deduct the
         total unpaid amount of the loan and any unpaid interest due on the loan
         from the Participant's Account. The Committee may establish additional
         rules and procedures for handling loan defaults, including, but not
         limited to, restrictions on future borrowing.

J.       PROCEDURE. The Committee will establish nondiscriminatory policies and
         procedures to administer Participant loans.

                                  ------------

                       EMPLOYER ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
                       ----------------------------------

         SECTION 8.01. ESTABLISHMENT OF TRUST. The Company shall execute a Trust
Agreement with one or more persons or parties who shall serve as the Trustee.
The Trustee so selected shall serve as the Trustee until otherwise replaced or
said Trust Agreement is terminated. The Company may, from time to time, enter
into such further agreements with the Trustee or other parties and make such
amendments to said Trust Agreement as it may deem necessary or desirable to
carry out this Plan. Any and all rights or benefits which may accrue to a person
under this Plan shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of the Trust
Agreement.

         SECTION 8.02. INFORMATION TO COMMITTEE. Each Employer shall supply
current information to the Committee as to the name, date of birth, date of
employment, annual compensation, leaves of absence, Years of Service, and date
of termination of employment of each Employee who is, or who will be eligible to
become, a Participant under the Plan, together with any other information that
the Committee considers necessary. The Employer's records as to the current
information that the Employer furnishes to the Committee shall be conclusive as
to all persons.

         SECTION 8.03. NO LIABILITY. The Employer assumes no obligation or
responsibility to any of its Employees, Participants or Beneficiaries for any
act of, or failure to act, on the part of its Committee or the Trustee.

         SECTION 8.04. INDEMNITY OF COMMITTEE. Each Employer indemnifies and
saves harmless the members of the Committee, and each of them, from and against
any and all loss (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of defense)
resulting from liability to which the Committee, or the members of the
Committee, may be subjected by reason of any act or conduct (except willful
misconduct or gross negligence) in their official capacities in the
administration of the Trust or this Plan or both, including all expenses
reasonably incurred in their defense, in case the Employer fails to provide such
defense. The indemnification provisions of this Section 8.04 shall not relieve
any Committee member from any liability he may have under ERISA for breach of a
fiduciary duty to the extent such indemnification is prohibited by ERISA.
Furthermore, the Committee members and the Employer may execute a letter
agreement further delineating the indemnification agreement of this Section
8.04, provided the letter agreement must be consistent with and shall not
violate ERISA.

         SECTION 8.05. INVESTMENT FUNDS. The Committee and the Trustee shall
establish certain investment funds (the "INVESTMENT FUNDS"), rules governing the
administration of the Investment Funds, and procedures for directing the
investment of Participant Accounts among the Investment Funds. The Trustee shall
invest and reinvest the principal and income of each Account in the Trust Fund
as required by ERISA and as directed by Participants. The Committee and the
Employer reserve the right to change the investment options available under the
Plan and the rules governing investment designations at any time and from time
to time.

         The Trustee is authorized to maintain the "EMPLOYER COMMON STOCK FUND"
as one of the Investment Funds. The Employer Common Stock Fund shall consist of
stock of the Company and cash or cash equivalents needed to meet obligations of
such fund or for the purchase of stock of the Company. One of the purposes of
the Plan is to provide Participants with ownership interests in the Company. To
the extent practicable, all available assets of the Employer Common Stock Fund
shall be used to purchase Shares, which shall be held by the Trustee and
allocated to Participant Accounts until distribution in kind or sale for
distribution of cash to Participants or Beneficiaries or until disposition is

   69

required to implement changes in investment designations. In addition to the
Employer Common Stock Fund, all or any portion of the remaining Trust Fund may
consist of Shares. The Trustee may acquire or dispose of Shares as necessary to
implement Participant directions and may net transactions within the Trust Fund.
In addition, when acquiring Shares, the Trustee may acquire Shares directly from
the Company or on the open market as necessary to effect Participant directions.
In either case, the price paid for such Shares shall not exceed the fair market
value of the Shares. The fair market value of the Shares acquired directly from
the Company shall mean the mean between the high and low bid and ask prices as
reported by the New York Stock Exchange on the date of such transaction.

         Each Investment Fund (other than the Employer Common Stock Fund) shall
be established by the Trustee at the direction or with the concurrence of the
Committee. Investment Funds may, as so determined, consist of preferred and
common stocks, bonds, debentures, negotiable instruments and evidences of
indebtedness of every kind and form, or in securities and units of participation
issued by companies registered under the Investment Companies Act of 1940,
master limited partnerships or real estate investment trusts, or in any common
or collective fund established or maintained for the collective investment and
reinvestment of assets of pension and profit sharing trusts which are exempt
from federal income taxation under the Code, or any combination of the
foregoing. The Trustee shall hold, manage, administer, invest, reinvest, account
for and otherwise deal with the Trust Fund and each separate Investment Fund as
provided in the Trust Agreement.

         Anything in the Plan or Trust Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall not sell, alienate, encumber, pledge,
transfer or otherwise dispose of, or tender or withdraw, any Shares held by it
under the Trust Agreement, except (i) as specifically provided for in the Plan
or (ii) in the case of a "TENDER OFFER" as directed in writing by a Participant
(or Beneficiary, where applicable) on a form provided or approved by the
Committee and delivered to the Trustee. For the purposes hereof, a Tender Offer
shall mean any offer for, or request for or invitation for tenders of, or offer
to purchase or acquire, any Shares that is directed generally to shareholders of
the Employer or any transaction which may be defined as a Tender Offer under
rules or regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To
the extent that any money or other property is received by the Trustee as a
result of a tender of Shares not prohibited by the preceding sentence, such
money or property shall be allocated to such other Investment Fund(s) as
directed by the Participants in whose Account the Shares so tendered were held.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                   ----------

                      PARTICIPANT ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
                      -------------------------------------

         SECTION 9.01. PERSONAL DATA TO COMMITTEE. Each Participant and each
Beneficiary of a deceased Participant must furnish to the Committee such
evidence, data or information as the Committee considers necessary or desirable
for the purpose of administering the Plan. The provisions of this Plan are
effective for the benefit of each Participant upon the condition precedent that
each Participant will furnish promptly full, true and complete evidence, data
and information when requested by the Committee, provided the Committee shall
advise each Participant of the effect of his failure to comply with its request.

         SECTION 9.02. ADDRESS FOR NOTIFICATION. Each Participant and each
Beneficiary of a deceased Participant shall file with the Committee, from time
to time, in writing, or otherwise notify the Committee (in accordance with its
rules and procedures) of, his post office address and any change of post office
address. Any communication, statement or notice addressed to a Participant, or
Beneficiary, at his last post office address filed with the Committee, or as
shown on the records of the Employer, shall bind the Participant, or
Beneficiary, for all purposes of this Plan.

         SECTION 9.03. ASSIGNMENT OR ALIENATION. Subject to Code Section 414(p)
relating to qualified domestic relations orders, neither a Participant nor a
Beneficiary shall anticipate, assign or alienate (either at law or in equity)
any benefit provided under the Plan, and the Trustee shall not recognize any
such anticipation, assignment or alienation. Furthermore, a benefit under the
Plan is not subject to attachment, garnishment, levy, execution or other legal
or equitable process.

         SECTION 9.04. NOTICE OF CHANGE IN TERMS. The Employer, within the time
prescribed by ERISA and the applicable regulations, shall furnish all
Participants and Beneficiaries a summary description of any material amendment
to the Plan or notice of discontinuance of the Plan and all other information
required by ERISA to be furnished without charge.

         SECTION 9.05. PARTICIPANT DIRECTION OF INVESTMENT. The Committee and
the Trustee shall establish rules governing the administration of Investment
Funds and procedures for Participant direction of investment, including rules
governing the timing, frequency and manner of making investment elections. The
Committee and the Employer reserve the right to change the investment options
available under the Plan and rules governing investment designations from time
to time. Nothing in this or any other provision of the Plan shall require the
Trustee, the Employer or the Committee to implement Participant investment
directions or changes in such directions, or to establish any procedures, other
than on an administratively practicable basis, as determined by the Employer in
its discretion.

         Each Participant shall, in accordance with procedures established by
the Committee and the Trustee, direct that his Account and contributions thereto
be invested and reinvested in any one or more of the Investment Funds. The
investment of any such monies shall be subject to such restrictions as the
Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, to be advisable or necessary
under the circumstances. Moreover, in accordance with procedures established by
the Trustee and agreed to by the Plan Administrator, Participants may, when
administratively practicable, be permitted to change their current and
prospective investment designations through telephone, "on-line" or similar
instructions to the Trustee or its authorized agent on a frequency established
under such procedures, as in effect from time to time.

   71

         The exercise of investment direction by a Participant will not cause
the Participant to be a fiduciary solely by reason of such exercise, and neither
the Trustee nor any other fiduciary of this Plan will be liable for any loss or
any breach that results from the exercise of investment direction by the
Participant. The investment designation procedures established under the Plan
shall be and are intended to be in compliance with the requirements of ERISA
Section 404(c) and the regulations thereunder.

         In no event shall Participants be permitted to direct that such
Accounts and/or such additional contributions be invested in the Employer Common
Stock Fund until Cardinal Health, Inc., the Plan, the Trustee and all other
relevant parties have fully complied with such requirements, including, but not
limited to, federal and state securities laws, as the Committee has determined
to be applicable. The Committee may restrict the ability of any person covered
under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any
other corporate insider of the Employer to direct the investment of his Account
in the Employer Common Stock Fund. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and where the terms of any
relevant investment contracts, regulated investment companies or pooled or group
trusts so require, impose special terms, conditions and restrictions upon a
Participant's right to direct the investment in, or transfer into or out of,
such contracts, companies or trusts.

         SECTION 9.06. CHANGE OF INVESTMENT DESIGNATIONS. Each Participant who
is entitled to direct the investment of additional contributions to be allocated
to his Account in accordance with Section 9.05 hereof may select how such
additional contributions are to be invested. Such investment directions shall be
made in accordance with applicable rules or procedures established by the
Trustee and the Plan Administrator.

         Each Participant may prospectively re-elect how those amounts then held
in his Account are to be reinvested in the various Investment Funds until
otherwise changed or modified. Such investment directions shall be made in
accordance with applicable rules or procedures established by the Trustee and
the Plan Administrator.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Committee may, in
its sole discretion and where the terms of any relevant investment contracts,
regulated investment companies or pooled or group trusts so require, impose
special terms, conditions and restrictions upon a Participant's right to direct
the investment in, or transfer into or out of, such contracts, companies or
trusts. In addition, with respect to Shares held under the Plan that were
previously maintained under the Owen Healthcare, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (the "ESOP SHARES"), no more than 25% of the original number of ESOP Shares
of any Participant transferred to this Plan may be exchanged, sold or
distributed in any calendar quarter. This restriction on the disposition of ESOP
Shares shall expire on July 1, 2001.

         SECTION 9.07. LITIGATION AGAINST THE TRUST. If any legal action filed
against the Trustee, the Employer as Plan Administrator, or the Committee, or
against any member or members of the Committee, by or on behalf of any
Participant or Beneficiary, results adversely to the Participant or to the
Beneficiary, the Trustee shall reimburse itself, the Employer or the Committee,
or any member or members of the Committee, all costs and fees expended by it or
them by surcharging all costs and fees against the sums payable under the Plan
to the Participant or to the Beneficiary, but only to the extent a court of
competent jurisdiction specifically authorizes and directs any such surcharges
and only to the extent Code Section 401(a)(13) does not prohibit any such
surcharges.

         SECTION 9.08. INFORMATION AVAILABLE. Any Participant in the Plan or any
Beneficiary may examine copies of the Plan, the Trust, the Plan description, the
latest annual report, any bargaining agreement, contract or any other instrument
under which the Plan was established or is operated. The Company will maintain
all of the items listed in this Section 9.08 in its offices, or in such

   72

other place or places as it may designate from time to time in order to comply
with the regulations issued under ERISA, for examination during reasonable
business hours. Upon the written request of a Participant or Beneficiary, the
Employer shall furnish him with a copy of any item listed in this Section 9.08.
The Employer may make a reasonable charge to the requesting person for the copy
so furnished.

         SECTION 9.09. APPEAL PROCEDURE FOR DENIAL OF BENEFITS. The Employer
shall provide adequate notice in writing to any Participant or to any
Beneficiary (the "CLAIMANT") whose claim for benefits under the Plan the
Committee has denied. The Employer's notice to the Claimant shall set forth:

         A.       The specific reason for the denial;

         B.       Specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the
                  Committee based its denial;

         C.       A description of any additional material and information
                  needed for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an
                  explanation of why the material or information is needed; and

         D.       That any appeal the Claimant wishes to make of the adverse
                  determination must be in writing to the Committee within 90
                  days after receipt of the Employer's notice of denial of
                  benefits. The Employer's notice must further advise the
                  Claimant that his failure to appeal the action to the
                  Committee in writing within the 90-day period will render the
                  Committee's determination final, binding and conclusive.

         If the Claimant appeals to the Committee, he, or his duly authorized
representative, may submit, in writing, whatever issues and comments he, or his
duly authorized representative, feels are pertinent. The Claimant, or his duly
authorized representative, may review pertinent Plan documents. The Committee
shall re-examine all facts related to the appeal and make a final determination
as to whether the denial of benefits is justified under the circumstances. The
Committee shall advise the Claimant of its decision within 60 days of the
Claimant's written request for review, unless special circumstances (such as a
hearing) would make the rendering of a decision within the 60-day limit
unfeasible, but in no event shall the Committee render a decision respecting a
denial for a claim for benefits later than 120 days after its receipt of a
request for review.

         The Employer's notice of denial of benefits shall identify the name of
each member of the Committee and the name and address of the Committee member to
whom the Claimant may forward his appeal.

                           ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
                           --------------------------

         SECTION 10.01. ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITY AMONG FIDUCIARIES FOR PLAN
AND TRUST ADMINISTRATION. The fiduciaries shall have only those powers, duties,
responsibilities and obligations as are specifically given to them under this
Plan and the Trust. The Employers shall have the sole responsibility for making
the contributions provided for under Article III. The Company shall have the
sole authority to appoint and remove the Trustee and members of the Committee,
and to amend or terminate, in whole or in part, this Plan or the Trust. The
Company shall have the final responsibility for the administration of the Plan,
which responsibility is specifically described in this Plan and the Trust, and
shall be the "Plan Administrator" and the named fiduciary. The Committee shall
have the specific delegated powers and duties described in the further
provisions of this Article X and such further powers and duties as hereinafter
may be delegated to it by the Employer. The Trustee shall have the sole
responsibility for the administration of the Trust and the management of the
assets held under the Trust, all as specifically provided in the Trust. Each
fiduciary warrants that any directions given, information furnished, or action
taken by it shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Plan and the
Trust, authorizing or providing for such direction, information or action.
Furthermore, each fiduciary may rely upon any such direction, information or
action of another fiduciary as being proper under this Plan and the Trust, and
is not required under this Plan or the Trust to inquire into the propriety of
any such direction, information or action. It is intended under this Plan and
the Trust that each fiduciary shall be responsible for the proper exercise of
its own powers, duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Plan and the
Trust and shall not be responsible for any act or failure to act of another
fiduciary. No fiduciary guarantees the Trust Fund in any manner against
investment loss or depreciation in asset value.

         SECTION 10.02. APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE. A Committee consisting of
three or more persons shall be appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the
Board to assist in the administration of the Plan. In the event of any vacancies
on the Committee, the remaining Committee member(s) then in office shall
constitute the Committee and shall have full power to act and exercise all
powers of the Committee as described in this Article X. All usual and reasonable
expenses of the Committee may be paid in whole or in part by the Employer, and

principal or income of the Trust Fund. Any members of the Committee who are
Employees shall not receive compensation with respect to their services for the
Committee.

         SECTION 10.03. COMMITTEE PROCEDURES. The Committee may act at a meeting
or in writing without a meeting. The Committee may elect one of its members as
chairperson, appoint a secretary, who may or may not be a Committee member, and
advise the Trustee of all relevant actions. The secretary shall keep a record of
all meetings and forward all necessary communications to the Employer, or the
Trustee, as appropriate. The Committee may adopt such bylaws and regulations as
it deems desirable for the conduct of its affairs. All decisions of the
Committee shall be made by the vote of the majority then in office, including
actions in writing taken without a meeting. A dissenting Committee member who,
within a reasonable time after he has knowledge of any action or failure to act
by the majority, registers his dissent in writing delivered to the other
Committee members, the Employer and the Trustee, shall not be responsible for
any such action or failure to act.

         SECTION 10.04. RECORDS AND REPORTS. The Employer (or the Committee if
so designated by the Employer) shall exercise such authority and responsibility
as it deems appropriate in order to comply with ERISA and governmental
regulations issued thereunder relating to records of

   74

Participant's Service, Account balances and the percentage of such Account

                  Account;

         B.       To adopt rules of procedure and regulations necessary for the
                  proper and efficient administration of the Plan, provided the

                  Trust;

         C.       To construe and enforce the terms of the Plan and the rules
                  and regulations it adopts, including the discretionary

                  related to the Plan's operation;

                  denial of a claim for) a benefit under the Plan;

         F.       To furnish the Employer with information that the Employer may
                  require for tax or other purposes;

         G.       To engage the service of agents whom it may deem advisable to

                  shall have full power and authority to manage, acquire or
                  dispose (or direct the Trustee with respect to acquisition or
                  disposition) of any Plan asset under its control.

         SECTION 10.06. RULES AND DECISIONS. The Committee may adopt such rules
as it deems necessary, desirable or appropriate. All rules and decisions of the
Committee shall be uniformly and consistently applied to all Participants in
similar circumstances. When making a determination or calculation, the Committee
shall be entitled to rely upon information furnished by a Participant or
Beneficiary, the Employer, the legal counsel of the Employer, or the Trustee.

         SECTION 10.07. APPLICATION AND FORMS FOR BENEFITS. The Committee may
require a Participant or Beneficiary to complete and file with the Committee an
application for a benefit and all other forms approved by the Committee, and to
furnish all pertinent information requested by the Committee. The Committee may

         SECTION 10.08. AUTHORIZATION OF BENEFIT PAYMENTS. The Committee shall
issue directions to the Trustee concerning all benefits that are to be paid from
the Trust Fund pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, or establish other
procedures on which the Trustee may act, and warrants that all such directions
are in accordance with this Plan.

   75

         SECTION 10.09. FUNDING POLICY. The Committee shall, from time to time,
review all pertinent Employee information and Plan data in order to establish
the funding policy of the Plan and to determine the appropriate methods of
carrying out the Plan's objectives. The Committee shall communicate
periodically, as it deems appropriate, to the Trustee and to any Plan Investment
Manager, the Plan's short-term and long-term financial needs so that investment
policy can be coordinated with Plan financial requirements.

         SECTION 10.10. FIDUCIARY DUTIES. In performing their duties, all
fiduciaries with respect to the Plan shall act solely in the interest of the
Participants and their Beneficiaries, and:

         A.       For the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to the
                  Participants and their Beneficiaries;

         B.       With the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the
                  circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting in
                  like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the
                  conduct of an enterprise of like character and with like aims;

         C.       To the extent a fiduciary possesses and exercises investment
                  responsibilities, by diversifying the investments of the Trust
                  Fund so as to minimize the risk of large losses, unless under
                  the circumstances it is clearly prudent not to do so; and

         D.       In accordance with the documents and instruments governing the
                  Plan insofar as such documents and instruments are consistent
                  with the provisions of Title I of ERISA.

                  405(c)(3) of ERISA) between the members of the Board, in the
                  case of the Board, and among the members of the Committee, in
                  the case of the Committee.

         SECTION 10.12. PROCEDURE FOR THE ALLOCATION OR DELEGATION OF FIDUCIARY
DUTIES. Any action described in subsections B or D of Section 10.11 may be taken
by the Committee or the Board only in accordance with the following procedure:

         A.       Such action shall be taken by a majority of the Committee or
                  by the Board, as the case may be, in a resolution approved by
                  a majority of such Committee or by a majority of the Board.

         B.       The vote cast by each member of the Committee or the Board for
                  or against the adoption of such resolution shall be recorded
                  and made a part of the written record of the Committee's or
                  the Board's proceedings.

         C.       Any delegation of fiduciary responsibilities or any allocation
                  of fiduciary responsibilities among members of the Committee
                  or the Board may be modified or rescinded by the Committee or
                  the Board according to the procedure set forth in subsections
                  A and B of this Section 10.12.

         SECTION 10.13. SEPARATE ACCOUNTING. The amounts in a Participant's
Compensation Deferral Account and (if applicable) his Qualified Matching
Contribution Account and Qualified Non-elective Contribution Account shall at
all times be separately accounted for from amounts in a Participant's Matching
Account, Profit Sharing Account, Special Contribution Account, Rollover Account
and Transfer Account(s), if any. Amounts credited to such subaccounts shall be
allocated among the Participant's designated investments on a reasonable pro
rata basis, in accordance with the valuation procedures of the Trustee and the
Investment Funds. The Trustee and the Committee shall also establish uniform
procedures which they may change from time to time, for the purpose of adjusting
the subaccounts of a Participant's Account for withdrawals, loans, distributions
and contributions. Gains, losses, withdrawals, distributions, forfeitures and
other credits or charges may be separately allocated among such subaccounts on a
reasonable and consistent basis in accordance with such procedures.

   77

         SECTION 10.14. VALUE OF PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT. The value of each
Participant's Account shall be based on its fair market value on the appropriate
Valuation Date. A valuation shall occur at least once every Plan Year, and
otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Trust and administratively
practicable procedures approved by the Committee. Periodically, on a frequency
determined by the Committee and the Trustee, the Participant will receive a
statement showing the transaction activity and value of his Account as of a date
set forth in the statement.

         SECTION 10.15. REGISTRATION AND VOTING OF EMPLOYER COMMON STOCK. All
Shares acquired by the Trustee shall be held in the possession of the Trustee
until disposed of pursuant to the provisions of the Plan or the Trust Agreement.
Such Shares may be registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee. Before
each annual or special meeting of the Employer's shareholders, the Trustee shall
send to each Participant a copy of the proxy solicitation material therefor,
together with a form requesting confidential instructions to the Trustee on how
to vote the Shares credited to his Account. Upon receipt of such instructions
the Trustee shall vote the Shares as instructed. Any Shares held in
Participants' Accounts, as to which the Trustee does not receive instructions,
shall be voted in proportion to the voting instructions the Trustee has actually
received in respect of Shares, unless the Trustee determines that to do so is
not prudent.

         SECTION 10.16. INDIVIDUAL STATEMENT. As soon as practicable after the
Accounting Date of each Plan Year, but within the time prescribed by ERISA and
the regulations under ERISA, and at such other times as determined by the
Committee in its discretion, the Committee will deliver to each Participant (and
to each Beneficiary of a deceased Participant) a statement reflecting the
condition of his Account in the Trust as of that date and such other information
ERISA requires be furnished to the Participant or Beneficiary. No Participant,
except a member of the Committee and its designees, shall have the right to
inspect the records reflecting the Account of any other Participant.

         SECTION 10.17. FEES AND EXPENSES FROM FUND. The Trustee shall receive
reasonable annual compensation as may be agreed upon from time to time between
the Employer and the Trustee. The Trustee shall pay all expenses reasonably
incurred by it or by the Employer, the Committee, or other professional advisers
or administrators in the administration of the Plan from the Trust Fund unless
the Employer pays the expenses. The Committee shall not treat any fee or expense
paid, directly or indirectly, by the Employer as an Employer contribution. No
person who is receiving full pay from the Employer shall receive compensation
for services from the Trust Fund. Brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, and
other charges and expenses in connection with the purchase and sale of
securities shall be charged to each Investment Fund and/or Participant's
Account, as applicable. Fees related to investments subject to Participant
direction, and other fees resulting from or attributable to expenses incurred in
relation to a Participant or Beneficiary or his Account may be charged to his
Account to the extent permitted under the Code and ERISA.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                                   ----------

                                 TOP HEAVY RULES
                                 ---------------

         SECTION 11.01. MINIMUM EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION. If this Plan is "Top
Heavy," as defined below, in any Plan Year, the Plan guarantees a minimum
contribution (subject to the provisions of this Article XI) of three percent of
Compensation for each "Non-Key Employee," as defined below, who is a Participant
employed by the Employer on the Accounting Date of the Plan Year without regard
to Hours of Service completed during the Plan Year or to whether he has elected
to make Compensation Deferral Contributions under Section 3.04, and who is not a
Participant in a Top Heavy defined benefit plan maintained by the Employer.
Participants who also participate in a Top Heavy defined benefit plan of the
Employer shall receive the required minimum benefit in the defined benefit plan
rather than in this Plan. The Plan satisfies the guaranteed minimum contribution
for the Non-Key Employee if the Non-Key Employee's contribution rate is at least
equal to the minimum contribution. For purposes of this paragraph, a Non-Key
Employee Participant includes any Employee otherwise eligible to participate in
the Plan but who is not a Participant because his Compensation does not exceed a
specified level.

         If the contribution rate for the "Key Employee," as defined below, with
the highest contribution rate is less than three percent, the guaranteed minimum
contribution for Non-Key Employees shall equal the highest contribution rate
received by a Key Employee. The contribution rate is the sum of Employer
contributions (not including Employer contributions to Social Security) and
forfeitures allocated to the Participant's Account for the Plan Year divided by
his "Compensation," as defined below, not in excess of the compensation
limitation under Code Section 401(a)(17) for the Plan Year. For purposes of
determining the minimum contribution for a Plan Year, the Committee shall
consider contributions made to any plan pursuant to a compensation reduction
agreement or similar arrangement as Employer contributions. To determine the
contribution rate, the Committee shall consider all qualified Top Heavy defined
contribution plans maintained by the Employer as a single plan.

         Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 11.01, if a
defined benefit plan maintained by the Employer that benefits a Key Employee
depends on this Plan to satisfy the anti-discrimination rules of Code Section
401(a)(4) or the coverage rules of Code Section 410 (or another plan benefiting
the Key Employee so depends on such defined benefit plan), the guaranteed
minimum contribution for a Non-Key Employee is three percent of his Compensation
regardless of the contribution rate for the Key Employees.

         The minimum employer contribution required (to the extent required to
be Nonforfeitable under Section 416(b) of the Code) may not be forfeited under
Code Section 411(a)(3)(B) or 411(a)(3)(D).

   79

         SECTION 11.02. ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTION. If the contribution rate
(excluding Compensation Deferral and Matching Contributions) for the Plan Year
with respect to a Non-Key Employee described in Section 11.01 is less than the
minimum contribution, the Employer will increase its contribution for such
Employee to the extent necessary so his contribution rate for the Plan Year will
equal the guaranteed minimum contribution. The Committee shall allocate the
additional contribution to the Account of a Non-Key Employee for whom the
Employer makes the contribution.

         SECTION 11.03. DETERMINATION OF TOP HEAVY STATUS. The Plan is "TOP
HEAVY" for a Plan Year if the Top Heavy ratio as of the "Determination Date," as
defined below, exceeds 60%. The Top Heavy ratio is a fraction, the numerator of
which is the sum of the present value of Accounts of all Key Employees as of the
Determination Date, the contributions due as of the Determination Date, and
distributions made within the five Plan Year period ending on the Determination
Date, and the denominator of which is a similar sum determined for all
Employees. The Committee shall calculate the Top Heavy ratio without regard to
the Account of any Non-Key Employee who was formerly a Key Employee. The
Committee shall calculate the Top Heavy ratio by disregarding the Account
portion (including distributions, if any, of the Account) of an individual who
has not received credit for at least one Hour of Service with the Employer
during the five Plan Year period ending on the Determination Date. The Committee
shall calculate the Top Heavy ratio, including the extent to which it must take
into account distributions, rollovers and transfers, in accordance with Code
Section 416 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

         If the Employer maintains other qualified plans (including a simplified
employee pension plan), this Plan is Top Heavy only if it is part of the
Required Aggregation Group, and the Top Heavy ratio for both the Required
Aggregation Group and the Permissive Aggregation Group exceeds 60%. The
Committee will calculate the Top Heavy ratio in the same manner as required by
the first paragraph of this Section 11.03, taking into account all plans within
the Aggregation Group. To the extent the Committee must take into account
distributions to a Participant, the Committee shall include distributions from a
terminated plan that would have been part of the Required Aggregation Group if
it were in existence on the Determination Date. The Committee shall calculate
the present value of accrued benefits and the other amounts the Committee must
take into account, under defined benefit plans or simplified employee pension
plans included within the group, in accordance with the terms of those plans,
Code Section 416 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. If an aggregated plan
does not have a valuation date coinciding with the Determination Date, the
Committee shall value the accrued benefits or Accounts in the aggregated plan as
of the most recent valuation date falling within the 12-month period ending on
the Determination Date. The Committee shall calculate the Top Heavy ratio with
reference to the Determination Dates that fall within the same calendar year.

         The accrued benefit of a Participant other than a Key Employee shall be
determined under (a) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual
purposes under all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer, or (b) if
there is no such method, as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the
slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule of Section 411(b)(1)(C)
of the Code.

         SECTION 11.04. LIMITATION ON ALLOCATIONS. If, during any Limitation
Year, this Plan is Top Heavy, the Committee shall apply the limitations of
Article IV to a Participant by substituting "100%" for "125%" each place it
appears in Section 4.03. This Section 11.04 shall not apply if:

         A.       The contribution rate for a Non-Key Employee who participates
                  only in the defined contribution plan(s) would satisfy Section
                  11.01 if the Committee substituted four percent for three
                  percent;

   80

         B.       A Non-Key Employee who participates in any Top Heavy defined
                  benefit plan(s) receives an extra minimum contribution or
                  benefit that satisfies Code Section 416(h)(2); and

         C.       The Top Heavy ratio does not exceed 90%.

         SECTION 11.05. TOP HEAVY VESTING SCHEDULE. For any Plan Year for which
the Plan is Top Heavy, as determined in accordance with this Article XI, the
Committee shall calculate a Participant's Nonforfeitable percentage of his
Profit Sharing Contributions, Special Contributions and Matching Contributions
by applying the following schedule, to the extent that such schedule provides
for vesting at a rate that is more rapid than the rate otherwise applicable to
the Participant's benefit:


                                                         Profit Sharing, Special
                                                              Contribution, and
                                                              Matching Accounts
                   Years of Service                       Percent Nonforfeitable
                   ----------------                       ----------------------
                   Less than two (2)                                   0%
       At least two (2) but less than three (3)                       20%
       At least three (3) but less than four (4)                      40%
       At least four (4) but less than five (5)                       60%
        At least five (5) but less than six (6)                       80%
               At least six (6) or more                              100%

         SECTION 11.06. DEFINITIONS. For purposes of applying the provisions of
this Article XI:

         A.       "KEY EMPLOYEE" shall mean, as of any Determination Date, any
                  Employee or former Employee (or Beneficiary of such Employee)
                  who, at any time during the Plan Year (which includes the
                  Determination Date) or during the preceding four Plan Years,
                  is an officer of the Employer, one of the Employees having
                  annual Compensation in excess of the annual dollar limitation
                  under Section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code in effect for any such
                  Plan Year and owning the ten largest interests in the
                  Employer, a more than five percent owner of the Employer, or a
                  more than one percent owner of the Employer who has annual
                  Compensation of more than $150,000. An officer is any Employee
                  (and the Beneficiaries of such Employee) who at any time
                  during the determination period was an officer of the Employer
                  and such individual's annual Compensation exceeded 50% of the
                  dollar limitation under Section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code in
                  effect for the period. The constructive ownership rules of
                  Code Section 318 (or the principles of that section, in the
                  case of an unincorporated Employer) will apply to determine
                  ownership in the Employer. The Committee will make the
                  determination of who is a Key Employee in accordance with Code
                  Section 416(i)(1) and the Treasury Regulations under that Code
                  Section.

         B.       "NON-KEY EMPLOYEE" is an Employee who does not meet the
                  definition of Key Employee.

         C.       "COMPENSATION" shall mean the first $150,000 (or such larger
                  amount as the Commissioner of Internal Revenue may prescribe
                  in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(17)) of Compensation as
                  defined in Code Section 415(c)(3), but including amounts
                  contributed by the Employer pursuant to a salary reduction
                  agreement that are

   81

                  excludible from the Employee's gross income under Section 125,
                  Section 402(a)(8), Section 402(h) or Section 403(b) of the
                  Code.

         D.       "REQUIRED AGGREGATION GROUP" means:

                  (i)      Each qualified plan of the Employer in which at least
                           one Key Employee participates at any time during the
                           five Plan Year period ending on the Determination
                           Date; and

                  (ii)     Any other qualified plan of the Employer that enables
                           a plan described in (i) to meet the requirements of
                           Code Section 401(a)(4) or Code Section 410.

                           The Required Aggregation Group includes any plan of
                  the Employer which was maintained within the last five years
                  ending on the Determination Date on which a top heaviness
                  determination is being made if such plan would otherwise be
                  part of the Required Aggregation Group for the Plan Year but
                  for the fact it has been terminated.

         E.       "PERMISSIVE AGGREGATION GROUP" is the Required Aggregation
                  Group plus any other qualified plans maintained by the
                  Employer, but only if such group would satisfy in the
                  aggregate the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) and Code
                  Section 410. The Committee shall determine which plans to take
                  into account in determining the Permissive Aggregation Group.

         F.       "EMPLOYER" shall mean all the members of a controlled group of
                  corporations (as defined in Code Section 414(b)), of a
                  commonly controlled group of trades or businesses (whether or
                  not incorporated) (as defined in Code Section 414(c)), or an
                  affiliated service group (as defined in Code Section 414(m)),
                  of which the Employer is a part. However, the Committee shall
                  not aggregate ownership interests in more than one member of a
                  related group to determine whether an individual is a Key
                  Employee because of his ownership interest in the Employer.

         G.       "DETERMINATION DATE" for any Plan Year is the Accounting Date
                  of the preceding Plan Year or, in the case of the first Plan
                  Year of the Plan, the Accounting Date of that Plan Year.

                                  -------------

         SECTION 12.01. EVIDENCE. Anyone required to give evidence under the
terms of the Plan may do so by certificate, affidavit, document or other
information that the person to act in reliance may consider pertinent, reliable
and genuine, and to have been signed, made or presented by the proper party or
parties. Both the Committee and the Trustee shall be fully protected in acting
and relying upon any evidence described under the immediately preceding
sentence.

         SECTION 12.02. NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR EMPLOYER ACTION. Neither the
Trustee nor the Committee shall have any obligation or responsibility with
respect to any action required by the Plan to be taken by the Employer, any
Participant or eligible Employee, nor for the failure of any of the above
persons to act or make any payment or contribution, or otherwise to provide any
benefit contemplated under this Plan, nor shall the Trustee or the Committee be
required to collect any contribution required under the Plan, or determine the
correctness of the amount of any Employer contribution. Neither the Trustee nor
the Committee need inquire into or be responsible for any action or failure to
act on the part of the others. Any action required of a corporate Employer shall
be by its Board or its designee.

         SECTION 12.03. FIDUCIARIES NOT INSURERS. The Trustee, the Committee,
the Plan Administrator and the Employer in no way guarantee the Trust Fund from
loss or depreciation. The Employer does not guarantee the payment of any money
that may be or becomes due to any person from the Trust Fund. The liability of
the Committee and the Trustee to make any payment from the Trust Fund at any
time and all times is limited to the then available assets of the Trust.

         SECTION 12.04. WAIVER OF NOTICE. Any person entitled to notice under
the Plan may waive the notice, unless the Code or Treasury Regulations require
the notice, or ERISA specifically or impliedly prohibits such a waiver.

         SECTION 12.05. SUCCESSORS. The Plan shall be binding upon all persons
entitled to benefits under the Plan, their respective heirs and legal
representatives, upon the Employer, its successors and assigns, and upon the
Trustee, the Committee, the Plan Administrator and their successors.

         SECTION 12.06. WORD USAGE. Words used in the masculine shall apply to
the feminine where applicable, and wherever the context of the Plan dictates,
the plural shall be read as singular and the singular as the plural.

         SECTION 12.07. HEADINGS. The headings are for reference only. In the
event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a section, the content
of the section shall control.

         SECTION 12.08. STATE LAW. Ohio law shall determine all questions
arising with respect to the provisions of this agreement except to the extent a
federal statute supersedes Ohio law.

         SECTION 12.09. EMPLOYMENT NOT GUARANTEED. Nothing contained in this
Plan, and nothing with respect to the establishment of the Trust, any
modification or amendment to the Plan or the Trust, the creation of any Account,
or the payment of any benefit, shall give any Employee, Employee-Participant or
Beneficiary any right to continue employment, or any legal or equitable right
against the Employer, or an Employee of the Employer, the Trustee or its agents
or employees, or the

   83

Plan Administrator. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed or construed to impair
or affect in any manner the right of the Employer, in its discretion, to hire
Employees and, with or without cause, to discharge or terminate the service of
Employees.

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                                  ------------

                    EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT, AMENDMENT, TERMINATION
                    -----------------------------------------

         SECTION 13.01. EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT. Except as provided under Article III,
the Employer shall have no beneficial interest in any asset of the Trust and no
part of any asset in the Trust shall ever revert to or be repaid to the
Employer, either directly or indirectly; nor prior to the satisfaction of all
liabilities with respect to the Participants and their Beneficiaries under the
Plan, shall any part of the corpus or income of the Trust Fund, or any asset of
the Trust, be (at any time) used for, or diverted to, purposes other than the
exclusive benefit of the Participants or their Beneficiaries.

         SECTION 13.02. AMENDMENT BY EMPLOYER. The Company shall have the right
at any time and from time to time:

         A.       To amend this agreement in any manner it deems necessary or
                  advisable in order to qualify (or maintain qualification of)
                  this Plan and the Trust created under it under the appropriate
                  provisions of the Code; and

         B.       To amend this agreement in any other manner.

         However, no amendment shall authorize or permit any part of the Trust
Fund (other than the part required to pay taxes and administration expenses) to
be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of the
Participants or their Beneficiaries or estates. No amendment shall cause or
permit any portion of the Trust Fund to revert to or become a property of the
Employer; and the Company shall not make any amendment that affects the rights,
duties or responsibilities of the Plan Administrator or the Committee without
the written consent of the affected Plan Administrator or the affected member of
the Committee. Furthermore, no amendment shall decrease a Participant's Account
balance or accrued benefit or reduce or eliminate any benefits protected under
Code Section 411(d)(6), including an optional form of distribution, with respect
to a Participant with an Account balance or accrued benefit at the date of the
amendment, except to the extent permitted under Code Section 412(c)(8).

         The Company shall make all amendments in writing. Amendments shall be
considered properly authorized by the Company if approved or ratified by the
Board, any committee of the Board, or by the Committee, unless the subject of
the amendment has been reserved to the Board. Each amendment shall state the
date to which it is either retroactively or prospectively effective, and may be
executed by any authorized officer of the Company.

         SECTION 13.03. AMENDMENT TO VESTING PROVISIONS. Although the Company
reserves the right to amend the vesting provisions at any time, the Committee
shall not apply an amended vesting schedule to reduce the Nonforfeitable
percentage of any Participant's Account derived from Employer contributions
(determined as of the later of the date the Company adopts the amendment, or the
date the amendment becomes effective) to a percentage less than the
Nonforfeitable percentage computed under the Plan without regard to the
amendment. An amended vesting schedule will apply to a Participant only if the
Participant receives credit for at least one Hour of Service after the new
schedule becomes effective.

         If the Company makes a permissible amendment to the vesting provisions,
each Participant having at least three Years of Service for vesting purposes
with the Employer may elect to have the percentage of his Nonforfeitable Account
Balance computed under the Plan without regard to the

   85

amendment. The Participant must file his election with the Employer within 60
days of the latest of (a) the Company's adoption of the amendment; (b) the
effective date of the amendment; or (c) his receipt of a copy of the amendment.
The Committee, as soon as practicable, shall forward a true copy of any
amendment to the vesting schedule to each affected Participant, together with an
explanation of the effect of the amendment, the appropriate form upon which the
Participant may make an election to remain under the vesting schedule provided
under the Plan prior to the amendment and notice of the time within which the
Participant must make an election to remain under the prior vesting schedule.
The election described in this Section 13.03 does not apply to a Participant if
the amended vesting schedule provides for vesting that is at least as rapid at
all times as the vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment. For purposes
of this Section 13.03, an amendment to the vesting schedule includes any
amendment that directly or indirectly affects the computation of the
Nonforfeitable percentage of an Employee's rights to his Employer-derived
Account.

         SECTION 13.04. DISCONTINUANCE. The Employer shall have the right, at
any time, to suspend or discontinue its contributions under the Plan, and the
Company shall have the right to terminate, at any time, this Plan and the Trust
created under this agreement. The Plan shall terminate upon the first to occur
of the following:

         A.       The date terminated by action of the Company

         B.       The date the Employer shall be judicially declared bankrupt or
                  insolvent.

         C.       The dissolution, merger, consolidation or reorganization of
                  the Employer or the sale by the Employer of all or
                  substantially all of its assets, unless the successor or
                  purchaser makes provision to continue the Plan, in which event
                  the successor or purchaser shall substitute itself as the
                  Employer under this Plan.

         SECTION 13.05. FULL VESTING ON TERMINATION. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Plan to the contrary, upon either full or partial termination
of the Plan, or, if applicable, upon the date of complete discontinuance of
contributions to the Plan, an affected Participant's right to his Account shall
be 100% Nonforfeitable.

         SECTION 13.06. MERGER, DIRECT TRANSFER AND ELECTIVE TRANSFER. The
Trustee shall not consent to, or be a party to, any merger or consolidation with
another plan, or to a transfer of assets or liabilities to another plan, unless
immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer, the surviving plan
provides each Participant a benefit equal to or greater than the benefit each
Participant would have received had the Plan terminated immediately before the
merger or consolidation or transfer. The Trustee possesses the specific
authority to enter into merger agreements or direct transfer of assets
agreements with the trustees of other retirement plans described in Code Section
401(a) and to accept the direct transfer of plan assets, or to transfer plan
assets, as a party to any such agreement, only upon the consent or direction of
the Employer or the Committee.

         If permitted by the Employer or the Committee in its discretion, the
Trustee may accept a direct transfer of plan assets on behalf of an Employee
prior to the date the Employee satisfies the Plan's eligibility condition(s). If
the Trustee accepts such a direct transfer of plan assets, the Committee and the
Trustee shall treat the Employee as a Participant for all purposes of the Plan
except that the Employee shall not share in Employer contributions or
Participant forfeitures under the Plan until he actually becomes a Participant
in the Plan. The Trustee shall hold, administer and distribute the transferred
assets as a part of the Trust Fund, and the Trustee shall maintain a separate
Transfer Account for the benefit of the Employee on whose behalf the Trustee
accepted the transfer in order to reflect the value of the transferred assets.

   86

         The Trustee may not consent to, or be a party to, a merger,
consolidation or transfer of assets with a defined benefit plan, except with
respect to an elective transfer, unless the Committee consents and so directs,
and the transfer is consistent with the Code and with ERISA. The Trustee will
hold, administer and distribute the transferred assets as a part of the Trust
Fund, and the Trustee shall maintain a separate Transfer Account for the benefit
of the Employee on whose behalf the Trustee accepted the transfer in order to
reflect the value of the transferred assets. Unless a transfer of assets to this
Plan is an elective transfer, the Plan will preserve all Code Section 411(d)(6)
protected benefits with respect to those transferred assets, in the manner
described in Section 13.02.

         A transfer is an elective transfer if: (a) the transfer satisfies the
first paragraph of this Section 13.06; (b) the transfer is voluntary, under a
fully informed election by the Participant; (c) the Participant has an
alternative that retains his Code Section 411(d)(6) protected benefits
(including an option to leave his benefit in the transferor plan, if that plan
is not terminating); (d) the transfer satisfies the applicable spousal consent
requirements of the Code; (e) the transferor plan satisfies the joint and
survivor notice requirements of the Code, if the Participant's transferred
benefit is subject to those requirements; (f) the Participant has a right to
immediate distribution from the transferor plan, in lieu of the elective
transfer; (g) the transferred benefit is at least the greater of the single sum
distribution provided by the transferor plan for which the Participant is
eligible or the present value of the Participant's accrued benefit under the
transferor plan payable at that plan's normal retirement age; (h) the
Participant has a 100% Nonforfeitable interest in the transferred benefit; and
(i) the transfer otherwise satisfies applicable Treasury Regulations. An
elective transfer may occur between qualified plans of any type.

   87

         If the Plan receives a direct transfer (by merger or otherwise) of
elective contributions (or amounts treated as elective contributions) under a
plan with a Code Section 401(k) arrangement, the distribution restrictions of
Code Sections 401(k)(2) and (10) continue to apply to those transferred elective
contributions.

         SECTION 13.07. TERMINATION. Upon termination of the Plan, the
distribution provisions of Article V and Article VI shall remain operative,
except that:

         A.       If the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
                  Account does not exceed $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years
                  beginning before August 6, 1997), the Committee will direct a
                  Trustee to distribute the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account
                  to him in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable
                  after the Plan terminates; and

         B.       If the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable
                  Account exceeds $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning before
                  August 6, 1997), the Participant or the Beneficiary, in
                  addition to the distribution events permitted under Articles V
                  and VI, may elect to have the Trustee commence distribution of
                  his Nonforfeitable Account as soon as administratively
                  practicable after the Plan terminates.

         The Trust shall continue until the Trustee, after written direction
from the Committee, has distributed all of the benefits under the Plan. To
liquidate the Trust, the Committee will, to the extent required, purchase a
deferred annuity contract for each Participant which protects the Participant's
distribution rights under the Plan, if the Participant's Nonforfeitable Account
exceeds $5,000 ($3,500 for Plan Years beginning before August 6, 1997), and the
Participant does not elect an immediate distribution pursuant to this Section
13.07. Upon termination of the Plan, the amount, if any, in a suspense account
under Article IV shall revert to the Employer, subject to the conditions of the
Treasury Regulations permitting such a reversion.

         The Employer has executed this Plan in Dublin, Ohio on the date set
forth below.

                             ----------------------

A.       Cardinal Health, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the "Corporation"),

         Profit Sharing and Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") for the benefit
         of its employees and their beneficiaries.

B.       Pursuant to Section 13.02 of the Plan, the Corporation may amend the
         Plan at any time.

C.       The Cardinal Health, Inc. Profit Sharing and Retirement Savings Plan
         Committee (the "Committee") assists in the administration of the Plan
         and is empowered to amend the Plan on behalf of the Corporation by
         action of a majority of its members then in office.

D.       The Committee desires to amend the Plan to acknowledge the
         participation of R. P. Scherer Corporation as a Participating Employer
         in the Plan and the addition of the R. P. Scherer Corporation
         Retirement Savings Plan (the "R. P. Scherer Plan") as a Merging Plan to
         be merged with and into the Plan effective as of September 1, 1999.

                              AMENDMENT TO THE PLAN
                              ---------------------

                                    all Eligible Participants for such Plan
                                    Year, and (2) the aggregate amount of Excess
                                    Compensation for all Participants for such
                                    Plan Year.

                           ii.      "ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT." For each Plan Year,
                                    each Participant who completed at least
                                    1,000 Hours of Service during such Plan Year
                                    and who (A) was an Employee on the last day

                           iii.     "EXCESS COMPENSATION." The portion, if any,
                                    of each Eligible Participant's Compensation
                                    which is in excess of the Integration Level.

                           iv.      "INTEGRATION LEVEL." With respect to each
                                    Plan Year, the contribution and benefit base
                                    in effect under Section 230 of the Social
                                    Security Act at the beginning of such Plan
                                    Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
                                    Integration

   99

                                    Level determined in accordance with the
                                    preceding sentence shall be prorated for a
                                    Plan Year of less than 12 months to the
                                    extent required by applicable law.

                           v.       "MAXIMUM EXCESS PERCENTAGE." For each Plan
                                    Year, the greater of (A) 5.7% or (B) the
                                    percentage equal to the portion of the rate
                                    of tax under Section 3111(a) of the Code (in
                                    effect as of the beginning of such Plan
                                    Year) which is attributable to old-age
                                    insurance.

                  As of the last day of each Plan Year, the Profit Sharing
Contributions for such Plan Year plus any amounts which are forfeited during
such Plan Year (and which are not required for restoration of amounts previously
forfeited) shall be allocated to the Profit Sharing Accounts of the Eligible
Participants for such Plan Year. If the Allocation Percentage for such Plan Year
is less than or equal to the Maximum Excess Percentage for such Plan Year, then
each such Participant's Profit Sharing Account shall be allocated an amount of
such contributions and forfeitures equal to the sum of (i) the Allocation
Percentage multiplied by such Participant's Compensation for such Plan Year, and
(ii) the Allocation Percentage multiplied by such Participant's Excess
Compensation for such Plan Year, if any. If the Allocation Percentage for such
Plan Year is greater than the Maximum Excess Percentage for such Plan Year, then
(A) an amount of such contributions and forfeitures equal to the Maximum Excess
Percentage for such Plan Year shall be allocated to each such Participant's
Profit Sharing Account in the same proportion that such Participant's Excess
Compensation for such Plan Year, if any, bears to the total of all such
Participants' Excess Compensation for such Plan Year, and (B) the balance of
such contributions and forfeitures shall be allocated to each such Participant's
Profit Sharing Account in the same proportion that each such Participant's
Compensation for such Plan Year bears to the total of all such Compensation for
such Plan Year.


                  b.       With respect to the short Plan Year beginning January
                           1, 1998 and ending June 30, 1998, the Employer shall
                           make a discretionary Profit Sharing Contribution to
                           the Owen 401(k) Plan which shall be allocated as
                           described above, except that allocations shall be
                           based on each Eligible Participant's Compensation for
                           the 12-month period preceding July 1, 1998.

         20.      Prior to July 1, 1992, Participants were permitted to make
                  "AFTER-TAX CONTRIBUTIONS" to the Owen 401(k) Plan. Such
                  After-tax Contributions shall be maintained in an Account on
                  behalf of each Participant known as an "AFTER-TAX
                  CONTRIBUTIONS ACCOUNT."

         21.      Prior to January 1, 1987, Participants were permitted to make
                  certain deductible contributions to the Owen 401(k) Plan. Such
                  deductible contributions shall be maintained in an Account on
                  behalf of each Participant known as a "PARTICIPANT IRA
                  ACCOUNT."

         22.      Each Participant shall, at all times, be 100% vested in his
                  Matching Account under the Owen 401(k) Plan.

         23.      A Participant's Profit Sharing Contributions under the Owen
                  401(k) Plan shall vest in accordance with the following
                  vesting schedule:




                                                                               Profit Sharing Contributions
                                   Years of Service                               Percent Nonforfeitable
                                   ----------------                               ----------------------

                  At least one (1) but less than two (2)                                    10%
                  At least two (2) but less than three (3)                                  20%
                  At least three (3) but less than four (4)                                 30%
                  At least four (4) but less than five (5)                                  40%
                  At least five (5) but less than six (6)                                   60%
                  At least six (6) but less than seven (7)                                  80%


   100


                                                                                       
                  At least seven (7) or more                                               100%


         24.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan shall not be credited,
                  for purposes of vesting, with any Service completed prior to
                  the first day of the Plan Year in which he attained age 18.

         25.      For purposes of vesting, if a Participant does not have a
                  Nonforfeitable interest in his Employer contributions at the
                  time he incurs a Break in Service, his Years of Service prior
                  to the Break in Service shall be disregarded upon
                  re-employment if the aggregate number of his consecutive
                  Breaks in Service equals or exceeds the greater of (a) five,
                  or (b) the aggregate number of his Years of Service prior to
                  the Break in Service. If a Participant incurs a Forfeiture
                  Break in Service, his Years of Service completed after such
                  Forfeiture Break in Service shall be disregarded in
                  determining the Participant's Nonforfeitable interest in the
                  Employer contributions accrued for his benefit prior to such
                  Forfeiture Break in Service.

         26.      Forfeitures under the Owen 401(k) Plan shall be reallocated
                  among Participants on the same basis that Profit Sharing
                  Contributions are allocated.

         27.      Distributions to Participants and Beneficiaries under the Owen
                  401(k) Plan shall be made in the form of either periodic
                  installments or lump sum payments.

         28.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may make an in-service
                  withdrawal of any or all amounts held in his After-tax
                  Contributions Account; provided, however, that a partial
                  withdrawal shall be permitted only if at least a $100 balance
                  remains in his After-tax Contributions Account after such
                  withdrawal.

         29.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may make an in-service
                  withdrawal from his Participant IRA Account in an amount equal
                  to all, but not less than all, of the amounts held in such
                  Participant IRA Account.

         30.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may make an in-service
                  withdrawal from his Rollover Account in an amount equal to
                  all, but not less than all, of the amounts held in such
                  Rollover Account.

         31.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan who has attained age 59
                  1/2may make an in-service withdrawal only from his
                  Compensation Deferral Account.

         32.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may obtain hardship
                  distributions only from his Compensation Deferral Account
                  (including income allocable thereto as of December 31, 1988).

         33.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may obtain no more than
                  one in-service withdrawal in any single Plan Year, and no
                  withdrawal shall be made from an Account to the extent it has
                  been pledged to secure a loan.

         34.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan may have no more than
                  one loan outstanding at any time.

         35.      A Participant in the Owen 401(k) Plan who is on an unpaid
                  leave of absence may elect to suspend payments on his loan
                  during such leave for a period of no more than one year.

         36.      The Owen 401(k) Plan will accept a Rollover Contribution of a
                  promissory note (and related documents) for a plan loan from
                  an employees' trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code if
                  the Eligible Employee executes such documents and instruments
                  as the Committee may require as a condition to the acceptance
                  of such note, including without limitation, a form prescribed
                  by the Committee authorizing the Employer to make payroll
                  deductions from such Eligible Employee's Compensation in order
                  to make payments on such note. The Participant may elect to
                  have such

   101

                  note transferred pursuant to a Direct Rollover to an Eligible
                  Retirement Plan which will accept such note.

         37.      Participants and Beneficiaries in the Owen 401(k) Plan have no
                  right to request, direct, or demand that the Committee or the
                  Trustee exercise, on their behalf, rights or privileges to

         8.       The term "Trust" shall mean the Owen Healthcare, Inc. Employee
                  Stock Ownership Plan Trust.

         11.      The Owen ESOP is intended to be a stock bonus plan qualified
                  under Section 401(a) of the Code. The Owen ESOP is also
                  designed to meet the requirements of an employee stock

         12.      Participants in the Owen ESOP were neither required nor
                  permitted to make contributions to the Owen ESOP. The only
                  contributions made by the Employer under the Owen ESOP were in
                  the form of "ESOP CONTRIBUTIONS." Such ESOP Contributions are
                  maintained in an Account on behalf of each Participant known
                  as the Participant's "ESOP ACCOUNT." No contributions were
                  made to

   103

                  the Owen ESOP after December 31, 1995, and no Employee of Owen
                  who was not a Participant in the Owen ESOP as of December 31,

         13.      Distributions to Participants under the Owen ESOP shall be
                  made either in the form of periodic installments or lump sum
                  payments. Distributions of the portion of the Participant's
                  Account which is invested in Company stock as of the first day
                  of the first period for which such Participant's benefit is
                  payable shall be made in cash unless the Participant elects to
                  receive his distribution in whole shares of Company stock
                  (with the value of any fractional shares being distributed in
                  cash). Distributions of the portion of the Participant's
                  Account which is not invested in shares of Company stock as of
                  the first day of the first period for which such Participant's
                  benefit is payable shall be made in the form of cash.

         14.      A Participant who has both completed at least ten years of
                  participation in the Owen ESOP and attained age 55 shall be
                  entitled to elect to receive a cash distribution equal in
                  value to a percentage of the Shares acquired by the Owen ESOP
                  and allocated to his ESOP Account for the Plan Year
                  immediately following the first Plan Year in which he has both
                  completed ten years of participation in the Owen ESOP and
                  attained age 55, and the five Plan Years immediately following
                  such Plan Year. The percentage of the Shares acquired by the
                  Owen ESOP and allocated to a Participant's ESOP Account as to
                  which he may elect to receive a cash distribution shall be:
                  25% as to the first Plan Year for which an election may be
                  made; 25% reduced by the number of Shares with respect to
                  which such cash distributions were previously made as to each
                  of the second, third, fourth and fifth Plan Years for which an
                  election may be made; and 50% reduced by the number of Shares
                  with respect to which such cash distributions were previously
                  made as to the last Plan Year for which an election may be
                  made.

                  A Participant's election to receive a cash distribution in
                  accordance with the paragraph set forth above as to a Plan
                  Year may be made at any time during the 90-day period
                  immediately following the close of such Plan Year by filing a
                  written election with the Committee. The Committee shall
                  direct the Trustee to liquidate the Shares as to which a
                  Participant has made a cash distribution election and
                  distribute such cash proceeds to such Participant as soon as
                  administratively feasible and not later than the expiration of
                  the 180-day period immediately following the close of the Plan
                  Year as to which the Participant's cash distribution election
                  is made.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant shall not be
                  eligible to elect cash distributions pursuant to the
                  paragraphs set forth above if the fair market value of the
                  Shares which were acquired by the Owen ESOP and allocated to
                  his ESOP Account is less than $500 as of the Valuation Date
                  immediately preceding the first day of the first Plan Year as
                  to which he otherwise would have been eligible to elect such
                  cash distribution.

         15.      Participants shall not be permitted to obtain loans from the
                  Owen ESOP. Nor shall Participants be permitted to obtain
                  in-service withdrawals (other than those described in
                  paragraph 14 above) or hardship distributions from the Owen
                  ESOP.

         16.      Each Participant in the Owen ESOP shall be entitled to direct
                  the Trustee as to the manner in which whole Shares credited to
                  the Participant's ESOP Account shall be voted; fractional
                  Shares shall be aggregated into whole Shares and voted by the
                  Trustee to the extent possible to reflect the voting
                  directions of the Participants with respect to whole Shares.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participants' rights to direct
                  the Trustee as to the voting of Shares allocated to their ESOP
                  Accounts shall be limited to any corporate matter which
                  involves the voting of such Shares with respect to the
                  approval or disapproval of any corporate merger or
                  consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification,
                  liquidation, dissolution, sale of substantially all assets of
                  a trade or business or such similar transaction as may be
                  prescribed by Treasury Regulations if Shares are not required
                  to be registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange
                  Act of 1934, unless the lack of such requirement for
                  registration is by reason of the exemption provided in
                  subsection (g)(2)(H) thereof. With respect to matters
                  concerning which a Participant has voting rights under these

   104

                  provisions, in the absence of voting instructions by a
                  Participant, Shares held in his ESOP Account shall not be
                  voted. With respect to matters concerning which a Participant
                  does not have voting rights under these provisions, Shares
                  held in his ESOP Account shall be voted as directed by the
                  Committee.

B.       PROVISIONS OF THE OWEN ESOP THAT CONTINUE TO APPLY. The following
         provisions of the Owen ESOP shall survive the merger:

         1.       A Participant employed by Owen on June 30, 1998 shall continue
                  to have a separate ESOP Account under the Plan.

         2.       The rights outlined in paragraphs 13, 14 and 16 above shall
                  continue to apply to the Shares held in the Participant's ESOP
                  Account.

                  will be taken into account, unless he has experienced a Break
                  in Service. For purposes of eligibility and vesting, if a
                  Participant does not have a Nonforfeitable interest in his
                  Employer contributions at the time he incurs a Break in

                  the greater of (a) five, or (b) the aggregate number of his

                  Years of Service prior to the Break in Service shall be taken
                  into account only if, following the Break in Service, the
                  Participant completes a Year of Service.

         20.      Profit Sharing Contributions, if any, shall be allocated to
                  each eligible Participant's account in the ratio that such
                  Participant's Compensation bears to the Compensation of all
                  eligible Participants.

   116

                  Compensation for Profit Sharing Contributions shall include
                  compensation earned during the entire Plan Year regardless of
                  the date of participation in the Plan. "Eligible Participants"
                  for purposes of the allocation of Profit Sharing Contributions
                  are those participants who have completed a Year of Service
                  and are employed as of the last day of the Plan Year.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant who terminated
                  employment prior to the last day of the Plan Year on account
                  of retirement, Disability or death shall also be considered an
                  Eligible Participant for purposes of allocation of Profit
                  Sharing Contributions.

         21.      A Participant may elect to have allocated to his account an
                  amount of Compensation for the Plan Year, which amount shall
                  be a whole percentage of not less than one percent but not
                  more than fifteen percent of Compensation for such Plan Year.
                  In addition, a Participant may enter into an agreement to
                  contribute extraordinary items of Compensation, not yet
                  payable (including bonuses) to be contributed to the R. P.
                  Scherer Plan during the Plan Year.

         22.      A Participant may increase or decrease the rate of
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions once each quarter, based
                  on the Plan Year. A Participant may suspend Compensation
                  Deferral Contributions at any time effective as of the next
                  following payroll period. A Participant who elects to suspend
                  Compensation Deferral Contributions under the R. P. Scherer
                  Plan may elect to recommence contributions as of the beginning
                  of the next following calendar quarter.

         23.      For each Plan Year, the Employer shall make contributions to
                  the R. P. Scherer Plan, in an amount equal to 50% of the
                  Participant's Compensation Deferral Contributions, however, no
                  match shall be made on Compensation Deferral Contributions in
                  excess of $500 of the Participant's Compensation. In addition,
                  the Employer may elect to make additional discretionary
                  matching contributions to the R. P. Scherer Plan as determined
                  by the Board on an annual basis.

         24.      A Participant may assign to this Plan any Excess Elective
                  Deferrals made during a taxable year of the Participant by
                  notifying the Plan Administrator on or before March 1 of the
                  following taxable year of the amount of the Excess Elective
                  Deferrals to be assigned to the Plan.

         25.      Prior to January 1, 1999, forfeitures of Profit Sharing
                  Contributions and Matching Contributions shall be made as of
                  the last day of the Plan Year in which the forfeiture
                  occurred. Forfeitures shall be allocated to Participant's
                  accounts in the same manner as Profit Sharing Contributions
                  and Matching Contributions, in the discretion of the Employer,
                  for the year in which the forfeiture arose. On and after
                  January 1, 1999, forfeitures shall be used first to pay
                  expenses of the R. P. Scherer Plan and then as Employer
                  contributions under the R. P. Scherer Plan to reduce the
                  contribution required to be made by the Employer.

         26.      If a Participant who was employed prior to September 1, 1999
                  terminates employment prior to Normal Retirement Age for any
                  reason other than death or Disability, then for each Year of
                  Service, he shall receive a Nonforfeitable Percentage of his
                  Profit Sharing Contributions and Matching Contributions
                  (forfeiting the balance) equal to the following:



                                                                               Profit Sharing Contributions and
                                                                                    Matching Contributions
                  Years of Service                                                  Percent Nonforfeitable
                  ----------------                                                  ----------------------
                                                                                       
                  Less than three (3)                                                        0%
                  Three (3) or more                                                        100%


                  For purposes of determining Years of Service for vesting in
                  Profit Sharing Contributions, Years of Service shall include
                  Years of Service before the Employer maintained this Plan and
                  shall include Years of Service before the Employee attained
                  age 18.

         27.      Upon Separation from Service, a Participant shall distribute
                  the Participant's Account balance as soon as administratively
                  practicable after the receipt of a distribution request from a
                  Participant as a lump sum payment in cash unless the
                  Participant elects to receive substantially equal quarterly,
                  semi-annual or annual installments over a period not exceeding
                  the joint life expectancy of the Participant and his or her
                  designated Beneficiary. Distributions in the form of a
                  qualified joint and survivor annuity shall not apply to any

                  Matching Contributions Account if the withdrawal is necessary
                  due to the immediate and heavy financial need of the
