ARTICLE III
ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION
     3.1 Initial Eligibility. Any Employee who shall have completed one year of continuous employment with a Participating Company and is employed by a Participating Company on the date such Employee’s participation in the Plan is to become effective shall be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan that commence on or after such one-year employment period has concluded. Any corporation that becomes a Subsidiary Corporation after the initial Offering Commencement Date shall become a Participating Company only upon the decision of the Board of Directors of the Company to designate such Subsidiary Corporation as a Participating Company and to extend the benefits of the Plan to its eligible Employees.      3.2 Leave of Absence. For purposes of participation in the Plan, a person on leave of absence shall be deemed to be an Employee for the first 90 days of such leave of absence and such Employee’s employment shall be deemed to have terminated at the close of business on the 90th day of such leave of absence unless such Employee shall have returned to regular full-time or part-time employment (as the case may be) prior to the close of business on such 90th day. Termination by a Participating Company of any Employee’s leave of absence, other than termination of such leave of absence on return to full time or part time employment, shall terminate an Employee’s employment for all purposes of the Plan and shall terminate such Employee’s participation in the Plan and right to exercise any Option.      3.3 Restrictions on Participation. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Employee shall be granted an Option to participate in the Plan:      (a) if, immediately after the grant, such Employee would own Stock, and/or hold outstanding Options to purchase Stock, possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of Stock of the Company (for purposes of this paragraph, the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining Stock ownership of any Employee); or      (b) which permits such Employee’s rights to purchase Stock under all employee stock purchase plans of the Company and all Participating Companies to accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 in fair market value of the Stock (determined at the time such Option is granted) for each calendar year in which such Option is outstanding.      3.4 Commencement of Participation. An eligible Employee may become a participant ("Participant") by completing the enrollment forms prescribed by the Committee (including a purchase agreement and a payroll deduction authorization) and filing such forms with the designated office of the Company prior to the Offering Commencement Date for the next scheduled Offering. Payroll deductions for a Participant shall commence on the next scheduled Offering Commencement Date when such Participant’s authorization for a payroll deduction becomes effective and shall continue in effect for the term of this Plan, except to the extent such payroll deduction is changed in accordance with this Section 3.4 or terminated in accordance with Article 8. Subject to Section 5.4 , a Participant may, at any time, increase or decrease the rate of, or cease, the Participant’s payroll deductions by filing the appropriate form with the designated office of the Company and such change shall become effective as of the next applicable Offering Commencement Date. ARTICLE IV
OFFERINGS
     4.1 Annual Offerings. The Plan will be implemented by up to ten annual offerings ("Offerings") of the Company’s Stock beginning on the 1st day of October in each of the years 2008 through 2017, with each Offering terminating on September 30 of the next year; provided, however, that each annual Offering may, in the discretion of the Committee exercised prior to the commencement thereof, be divided into two six-month Offerings commencing respectively, on October 1 and April 1, and terminating six months thereafter. As used in the Plan, "Offering Commencement Date" means the October 1 or April 1, as the case may be, on which the particular Offering begins and "Offering Termination Date" means the March 31 or September 30, as the case may be, on

which the particular Offering terminates. Any decision of the Committee to adjust the number of shares of Stock in an Offering must be made prior to the Offering Commencement Date of that Offering. ARTICLE V
PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS
     5.1 Percentage of Participation. At the time an Employee files authorization for payroll deductions and becomes a Participant in the Plan, the Employee shall elect to have deductions made from the Employee’s pay on each payday during the time the Employee is a Participant in an Offering. Such deductions shall be an amount equal to the Employee’s Participation Amount divided by the number of payroll periods occurring during the Offering. An Employee’s "Participation Amount" shall equal the rate of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 percent (as elected by the Employee) times such Employee’s Base Pay in effect at the Offering Commencement Date of such Offering; provided, however, that prior to any Offering Commencement Date, the Committee shall have the discretion to limit deductions to less than 10 percent (but no less than 5 percent) for any Offering.      5.2 Calculation of Base Pay. An Employee’s Base Pay as of an Offering Commencement Date and whether an Employee is "part-time" shall be determined in the discretion of the Committee based on the provisions of this Plan. In calculating an Employee’s normal weekly rate of pay under this Section 5.2, retroactive adjustments occurring during an Offering that are retroactive to the last day prior to the Offering Commencement Date of that particular Offering shall be taken into account. In addition, if an Employee’s Base Pay includes commissions, the Committee may set such Employee’s Base Pay based upon commission averages and standards as determined in the discretion of the Committee.      5.3 Participant’s Account. All payroll deductions made for a Participant pursuant to this Article 5 shall be credited to such Participant’s account under the Plan. A Participant may not make any separate cash payment into such account except when on leave of absence and then only as provided in Section 5.5.      5.4 Changes in Payroll Deductions. A Participant may discontinue participation in the Plan as provided in Article 8, but no other change can be made during an Offering and, specifically, a Participant may not alter the amount of such Participant’s payroll deductions for that Offering.      5.5 Leave of Absence. If a Participant goes on a leave of absence, such Participant shall have the right to elect: (a) to withdraw the balance in such Participant’s account pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, or (b) to discontinue contributions to the Plan but remain a Participant in the Plan, or remain a Participant in the Plan during such leave of absence, authorizing deductions to be made from payments by the Company to the Participant during such leave of absence and undertaking to make cash payments to the Plan at the end of each payroll period to the extent that amounts payable by the Participating Company to such Participant are insufficient to meet such Participant’s authorized Plan deductions. ARTICLE VI
GRANTING OF OPTION
     6.1 Number of Option Shares. On each Offering Commencement Date, a Participant shall be deemed to have been granted an option ("Option") to purchase a maximum number of shares of Stock equal to the Participation Amount with respect to such Participant, divided by the Option Price, determined as provided in Section 6.2 hereof.      6.2 Option Price. The "Option Price" of Stock for each Offering shall be the lower of (a) 85% of the Closing Price of the Stock on the Offering Commencement Date, or (b) 85% of the Closing Price of the Stock on the Offering Termination Date. The "Closing Price" of the Stock as to a particular day shall be the closing price of the Stock as reported for such day in the Wall Street Journal or in such other source as the Committee deems reliable. If the Stock is not traded on the New York Stock Exchange or other principal exchange or market on which it is authorized or listed for trading on the Offering Commencement Date and/or Offering Termination Date, as the case may be, the Closing Price for the Stock as to either of such dates on which such trading did not occur shall be the Closing Price on the nearest prior business day on which trading did occur.
