1.     Deferral Election.

      Any Eligible Employee selected by the Committee (a) may irrevocably elect
to defer any whole percentage up to 90% of the Base Salary payable to him or her
for the pay periods ending after December 31, 2007 and before January 1, 2009,
by electronically submitting an online election to that effect, and/or (b) may
have irrevocably elected to defer a whole percentage up to 100% of the bonus
payable to him or her under the Company's Senior Executive Incentive
Compensation Plan or Management Incentive Compensation Plan in the first quarter
of 2008, by having electronically submitted an online election to that effect in
2006.

      "Base Salary" means a Participant's annual base salary rate on January 1,
2008 from the Company or an Affiliate, including any elective contributions of
the Participant that are not includable in his or her gross income under Code
Sections 125 or 401(k), and before taking into account his or her Deferral
Election under the MSPP.

      "Participant" means an Eligible Employee who makes a Deferral Election.

2.     Restricted Stock Units.

      (a)    In consideration for the Participant's Deferral Election, the
            Participant shall be credited as of March 15, 2008 with Restricted
            Stock Units at a discounted price (the "Discount Rate") as provided
            in the following table:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Total dollar amount of Participant's Deferral Election, expressed as a     Applicable Discount Rate:
percentage of the Participant's Base Salary as of January 1, 2008:
----------------------------------------------------------------------     --------------------------
<S>                                                                         <C>
15% or less                                                                         20%
Over 15% and up to 100%                                                             30%
Over 100%                                                                            20%
</TABLE>

      (b)    The total number of Restricted Stock Units credited to a Participant
            under the Plan will be determined according to the following
            calculation:

            (i)    the dollar amount of the Participant's Deferral Election that
                  does not exceed 15% of the Participant's Base Salary, divided
                  by the product of (A) the average closing Fair Market Value
                  over the last five trading days

                                        1
<PAGE>

                  in 2007 (December 24, 26, 27, 28 and 31) (the "Average FMV")
                  multiplied by (B) 80%; plus

            (ii)   the dollar amount of the Participant's Deferral Election over
                  15% and up to 100% of the Participant's Base Salary, divided
                  by the product of (A) the Average FMV multiplied by (B) 70%;
                  plus

            (iii) the dollar amount of the Participant's Deferral Election over
                  100% of the Participant's Base Salary, divided by the product
                  of (A) the Average FMV multiplied by (B) 80%.

      (c)    The total number of Restricted Stock Units determined in Section
            2(b) will be credited to the Participant in the form of Salary
            Restricted Stock Units and/or Bonus Restricted Stock Units. The
            number of Salary Restricted Stock Units credited shall be the same
            proportion of the total Restricted Stock Units as the amount of Base
            Salary deferred in the Participant's Deferral Election is of the
            total amount deferred in the Participant's Deferral Election. The
            number of Bonus Restricted Stock Units credited shall be the same
            proportion of the total Restricted Stock Units as the amount of
            bonus deferred in the Participant's Deferral Election is of the
            total amount deferred in the Participant's Deferral Election.

3.     Restriction Period.

      The Restriction Period under this Agreement shall be the three-year period
commencing on March 15, 2008 and ending on March 14, 2011.

4.     Dividend Equivalents.

      If the Company declares a cash dividend on Shares, the Participant shall
be credited with dividend equivalents as of the payment date for the dividend
equal to the amount of the cash dividend per Share multiplied by the Restricted
Stock Units credited to the Participant under Section 2(b) as of the record
date. Dividend equivalents shall be credited to a notional account established
for the Participant (the "Dividend Equivalent Account"). Interest shall be
credited to the Participant's Dividend Equivalent Account, compounded monthly,
until payment of such account to the Participant. The rate of such interest
shall be the Prime Rate of interest as reported by the Midwest edition of The
Wall Street Journal on the second business day of each calendar quarter.

5.     Timing and Form of Payout.

      Except as provided in Sections 6, 7 or 8, after the end of the Restriction
Period, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a number of Shares equal to
the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to the Participant under Section
2(b) and a cash payment equal to the amount credited to the Participant's
Dividend Equivalent Account under Section 4. Delivery of such Shares shall be
made as soon as administratively feasible after the end of the Restriction
Period. Delivery of the cash payment of any amount credited to the Participant's
Dividend Equivalent Account shall be made on or about the date the Restricted
Stock Units are distributed to the Participant.

            Disability, the Participant (or in the case of the Participant's
            death, the Participant's beneficiary) shall be entitled to receive a
            number of Shares equal to the sum of (i) and (ii):

            (i)    the number of Salary Restricted Stock Units credited to the
                  Participant under Section 2(c) multiplied by a fraction, the
                  numerator of which is the number of pay periods for which
                   there was a Base Salary deduction in the period beginning on
                  January 1, 2008 and ending on the date the Participant ceases
                  to be an employee and the denominator of which is 24; and

            (ii)   the number of Bonus Restricted Stock Units credited to the
                  Participant under Section 2(c).

      (c)    After December 31, 2008.

            Participant's death, the Participant's beneficiary) shall be
            entitled to receive a number of Shares equal to the number of
            Restricted Stock Units credited to the Participant under Section
            2(b) and a cash payment equal to the Participant's Dividend
            Equivalent Account under Section 4.

      (d)    Beneficiary.

            Any distribution made with respect to a Participant who has died
            shall be paid to the beneficiary designated by the Participant
            pursuant to Article 11 of the Plan to receive the Participant's
