CLAIMS AND REVIEW PROCEDURES
6.1 Claims Procedure. The Company shall notify the Executive's beneficiary

benefits or full benefits, the notice shall set forth (1) the specific reasons
for such denial, (2) a specific reference to the provisions of the Agreement on
which the denial is based, (3) a description of any additional information or
material necessary for the claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a
description of why it is needed, and (4) an explanation of the Agreement's
claims review procedure and other appropriate information as to the steps to be

entitled to greater or different benefits, the beneficiary shall have the
opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Company by filing a petition for
review with the Company within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice
issued by the Company. Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the
beneficiary believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different
benefits. Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the petition,
the Company shall afford the beneficiary (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to
present his or her position to the Company orally or in writing, and the
beneficiary (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents.
The Company shall notify the beneficiary of its decision in writing within the
sixty-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a
manner calculated to be understood by the beneficiary and the specific
provisions of the Agreement on which the decision is based. If, because of the
need for a hearing, the sixty-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be
deferred for up to another sixty-day period at the election of the Company, but
notice of this deferral shall be given to the beneficiary.

ARTICLE 7
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION
The Company may amend or terminate this Agreement at any time if, pursuant
to legislative, judicial or regulatory action, continuation of the Agreement
would (i) cause benefits to be taxable to the Executive prior to actual receipt,
or (ii) result in significant financial penalties or other significantly
detrimental ramifications to the Company (other than the financial impact of
paying the benefits). In the event of any such amendment or termination, the
Executive shall be 100% vested in the portion of the Normal Retirement Benefit
accrued to the Executive's benefit under Section 2.1 as of the date of the
amendment or termination.

Company, and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, administrators and

Executive. It also does not require the Executive to remain an employee nor
interfere with the Executive's right to terminate employment at any time.
8.3 Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Agreement cannot be sold,
transferred, assigned, pledged, attached or encumbered in any manner.
8.4 Tax Withholding. The Company shall withhold any taxes that are
required to be withheld from the benefits provided under this Agreement.
8.5 Applicable Law. The Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be
governed by the laws of OHIO, except to the extent preempted by the laws of the

8.6 Unfunded Arrangement. The Executive and beneficiary are general
unsecured creditors of the Company for the payment of benefits under this
Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Company to pay such
benefits. The rights to benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation,
alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or
garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on
7
the Executive's life is a general asset of the Company to which the Executive
and beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive and a duly authorized Company officer
have signed this Agreement.
