The Plan was initially adopted effective September 16, 1997 and was amended and restated effective June 21, 1999, December 19, 2000, November 29, 2001, April 29, 2002, November 18, 2002, February 26, 2003, July 30, 2003 and January 30, 2004.

        (b)   In order to preserve the favorable tax treatment available to deferrals that were made under the Plan before January 1, 2005 in light of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, IRS Notice 2005-1, and the regulations issued by the Department of the Treasury thereunder (the "AJCA"), deferrals under the Plan of amounts that were not earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 shall not be permitted. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, on or after January 1, 2005, no Participant may make an Initial Election. Initial Elections made by Participants before January 1, 2005 shall be honored only to the extent that under Q-A 16(b) of IRS Notice 2005-1, the date of deferral is treated as having occurred before January 1, 2005.

        1.2.  Plan Unfunded and Limited to Outside Directors and Select Group of Management or Highly Compensated Employees. The Plan is unfunded and is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing outside directors and a select group of management or highly compensated employees the opportunity to defer compensation otherwise payable to such outside directors and management or highly compensated employees. The Plan provides an opportunity for outside directors and management or highly compensated employees to defer the receipt of Shares upon the exercise of Options and to convert the right to receive Shares to the right to receive the cash value thereof as of the date of such conversion, plus interest thereon from the date of such conversion, in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
