Trust on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. In accepting this

-------------
which the Sponsor is the grantor, within the meaning of subpart E, part I,

construed accordingly.
(d) Trust Assets. The principal of the Trust, and any earnings thereon
------------
shall be held separate and apart from other funds of the Sponsor and shall be
used exclusively for the uses and purposes of Participants and general creditors
as herein set forth. Participants and their beneficiaries shall have no
preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of the

-------------
remain fully funded at all times. However, in the event that the Sponsor ceases
to make contributions at any point in time and/or the Sponsor has knowledge that
a Change of Control is imminent, the Sponsor shall, as soon as practicable after
said contribution is due and/or as soon as practicable after the Sponsor has
knowledge that a Change in Control is imminent, but no later than the day
immediately preceding the contribution due date or the Change in Control,
identify and contribute to the Trust the sum of the following (collectively the
"Full Funding Amount"):
(i) With respect to the Plan, the amount by which the present
value of all benefits required under the Plan to be deposited in trust after
said contribution is due or upon a Change in Control exceeds the value of the
Trust assets.
(ii) A reasonable estimate provided by the Trustee of its fees due
over the remaining duration of the Trust.
(iii) A reasonable estimate of the taxes expected to be due over the
remaining duration of the Trust.
(f) Administrator. Until a Potential Change in Control or a Change in
-------------
Control, "Administrator" means the Compensation and Organization Committee of
the Board of Directors of Sponsor ("Board"). Upon a Potential Change in Control
or a Change in Control, any changes in the membership of the Administrator,
including appointment of new members to replace resigning members, will be made

Trustee, in writing, of a Potential Change in Control or a Change in Control,
and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to comply with the Potential Change
in Control or Change in Control provisions of this Agreement until the Trustee
has received such written notice.
(g) Non-Assignment. Benefit payments to Participants and their
--------------
beneficiaries funded under this Trust may not be anticipated, assigned (either
at law or in equity), alienated, pledged, encumbered, or subjected to
attachment, garnishment, levy, execution, or other legal or equitable process.
Section 3. Payments to Sponsor. Except as provided under Section 14, after the
-------------------
Trust has become irrevocable, the Sponsor shall have no right to retain or
divert to others any of the Trust assets before all payment of benefits have
been made to the Participants and their beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of
the Plan.
5
Section 4. Disbursements.
-------------
(a) Directions from Administrator. The Trustee shall disburse monies to
-----------------------------
Participants and their beneficiaries for benefit payments in the amounts that
the Administrator directs from time to time in writing. The Trustee shall not
disburse monies to any non-employees or other persons, including but not limited
to, any directors or non-resident alien participants, who are required to
receive any form other than Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form W-2 (Wage and
Tax Statement), nor shall the Trustee be responsible for ascertaining whether
the Administrator's direction complies with the terms of the Plan or applicable
law. With regard to said Participants, the Trustee shall disburse monies to the
Administrator in accordance with a Payment Schedule ("Payment Schedule") that
indicates the amounts payable in respect of each Participant and such other
details deemed appropriate by both the Administrator and the Trustee, and the
Administrator shall retain full responsibility for making disbursements to any
non-employees or other persons, including but not limited to, any directors or
non-resident alien participants, who are required to receive any form other than
IRS Form W-2 . The Trustee shall be responsible for Federal and State income tax
reporting or withholding with respect to Plan benefits paid from the Trust. The
Trustee shall not be responsible for FICA (Social Security and Medicare), any
Federal or State unemployment or local tax with respect to Plan distributions.
(b) Payments with No Stated Procedure. If a payment required under the
---------------------------------
terms of the Plan has not been made to a Participant, and the underlying Plan
has no stated procedure for the Participant to collect the benefits, then the
Participant may notify the Trustee in writing of the amount (or a reasonable
estimate of the amount) owed to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, and the
date such amount was due and payable. The Trustee shall notify the Administrator
within fifteen (15) calendar days of the receipt of such a payment request. If
the Trustee does not receive from the Sponsor a notarized statement as to the
proper amount due and payable to the Participant within thirty (30) calendar
days of the date the Trustee notified the Administrator in writing of the
payment request, then the Trustee shall make the payment requested by the
Participant from the assets of the Trust, and may conclusively rely on such
payment or payments as being the appropriate amount. The Trustee also shall
notify the Administrator of such payment and to the extent of such payment, the
Sponsor's obligation to the Participant for benefits under the Plan shall be
deemed satisfied. If the Sponsor's notarized statement as to the proper amount
due and payable to the Participant differs from the amount set forth in the
Participant payment request, then the Trustee shall retain any disputed amount
in Trust pending resolution of the dispute by the Sponsor and the Participant
pursuant to the Plan. Subject to the sufficiency of the assets of the Trust,
payment shall be made to a Participant from the Trust in accordance with the
terms of this Section 4(b) and the Plan until the earlier of:
7
(i) The date all benefit commitments due to the Participant or the
Participant's beneficiaries under the Plan, as requested by the Participant in
his or her notification to the Trustee, have been satisfied; or
(ii) The Administrator provides a notarized statement that shows
the proper amount due to the Participant. If such a notarized statement is so
provided, appropriate adjustment, if any, shall be made in the remaining amount
paid to the Participant.
(c) Limitations. The Trustee shall not be required to make any
-----------
disbursement in excess of the net realizable value of the assets of the Trust at
the time of the disbursement. If the assets are not sufficient to make such
distributions, the Sponsor shall be obligated to make the balance of each
payment when due. The Trustee shall not be required to make any disbursement in
cash unless the Administrator has provided a written direction as to the assets
to be converted to cash for the purpose of making the disbursement.
(d) Participants Subject to Federal Income Taxation. Except as
-----------------------------------------------
otherwise provided herein, in the event of any final determination by the IRS or
a court of competent jurisdiction which determination is not appeallable or the
time for appeal or protest of which has expired, or the receipt by the Trustee
of a substantially unqualified opinion of tax counsel selected by the Trustee,
which determination determines, or which opinion opines, that any Participant is
subject to Federal income taxation on amounts held in trust hereunder prior to
the distribution to the Participant of such amounts, the Trustee shall, upon
receipt by the Trustee of such opinion or notice of such determination, pay to
such Participant the portion of the Trust corpus includible in such
Participant's Federal gross income and, to the extent of such payment, the
Sponsor's obligation to the Participant for benefits under the Plan shall be
deemed satisfied.
Section 5. Investment of Trust.
-------------------
(a) Selection of Investment Options. The Trustee shall have no
-------------------------------
responsibility for the selection of investment options under the Trust and shall
not render investment advice to any person in connection with the selection of
such options.
(b) Available Investment Options. The Sponsor shall direct the Trustee
----------------------------
as to what investment options the Trust shall be invested in (i) during the
period beginning on the initial transfer of assets to the Trust, as a result of
a plan or partial plan acquisition, and ending on the completion of a
Participant Recordkeeping Reconciliation Period, and (ii) following a
Participant Recordkeeping
8
Reconciliation Period, subject to the following limitations. The Sponsor may
determine to offer as investment options only: (1) FMC Stock, (2) FMC
Technologies Stock and (3) Fidelity Mutual Funds and Non-Fidelity Mutual Funds
identified collectively as certain Mutual Funds as listed on Schedule "A"
attached hereto; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be considered a
fiduciary with investment discretion. The Sponsor may add or remove investment
options with the consent of the Trustee and upon mutual amendment of this Trust
Agreement and the Schedules thereto to reflect such additions.
Sponsor shall have the right at any time, and from time to time in its
sole discretion, to substitute assets of equal fair market value for any asset
held by the Trust. This right is exercisable by Sponsor in a non-fiduciary
capacity without the approval or consent of any person in a fiduciary capacity.
(c) Investment Directions. In order to provide for an accumulation of
---------------------
assets comparable to the contractual liabilities accruing under the Plan, the
Sponsor may direct the Trustee in writing to invest the assets held in the Trust
to correspond to the hypothetical investments made for Participants under the
Plan. Such directions may be made by Plan Participants by use of a Participant
service representative, the VRS, the internet or such other electronic means as
may be agreed upon from time to time by the Sponsor and the Trustee, maintained
for such purposes by the Trustee or its agents, in accordance with Schedule "E."
In the event that the Trustee fails to receive a proper direction from the
Sponsor or from Participants, the assets in question shall be invested in
Fidelity Retirement Government Money Market Portfolio until the Trustee receives
a proper direction.
The Sponsor's designation of available investment options, the
maintenance of accounts for each Plan Participant and the crediting of
investments to such accounts, the giving of investment directions by
Participants, and the exercise by Participants of any other powers relating to
investments are solely for the purpose of providing a mechanism for measuring
the obligation of the Sponsor to any particular Participant under the applicable
Plan. No Participant or beneficiary will have any preferential claim to or
beneficial ownership interest in any asset or investment, and the rights of any
Participant and his or her beneficiaries under the applicable Plan and this
Agreement are solely those of an unsecured general creditor of the Sponsor with
respect to the benefits of the Participant under the Plan.
(d) Mutual Funds. The Sponsor hereby acknowledges that it has received
------------
from the Trustee a copy of the prospectus for each Mutual Fund selected by the
Sponsor as a Plan investment option. Trust investments in Mutual Funds shall be
subject to the following limitations:
(i) Execution of Purchases and Sales. Purchases and sales of
--------------------------------
Mutual Funds (other than for exchanges) shall be made on the date on which the
Trustee receives from the Sponsor in good
9
order all information and documentation necessary to accurately effect such
purchases and sales (or in the case of a purchase, the subsequent date on which
the Trustee has received a wire transfer of funds necessary to make such
purchase). Transactions involving Non-Fidelity Mutual Funds shall be executed in
accordance with the operating procedures set forth in Schedule "D" attached
hereto. Exchanges of Fidelity Mutual Funds shall be made on the same business
day that the Trustee receives a proper direction if received before market close
(generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time); if the direction is received after market
close (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time), the exchange shall be made the
following Business Day.
(ii) Voting. At the time of mailing of notice of each annual or
------
special stockholders' meeting of any Mutual Fund, the Trustee shall send a copy
of the notice and all proxy solicitation materials to each Plan Participant who
has hypothetical shares of the Mutual Fund credited to the Participant's
accounts, together with a voting direction form for return to the Trustee or its
designee. The Participant shall have the right to direct the Trustee as to the
manner in which the Trustee is to vote the hypothetical shares credited to the
Participant's accounts. The Trustee shall vote the shares held in the Trust in
the same manner as directed by the Participant under the Plan. The Trustee shall
not vote shares for which it has received no corresponding directions from the
Participant. During a Participant Recordkeeping Reconciliation Period, the
Sponsor shall have the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in which the
Trustee is to vote the shares of the Mutual Funds in the Trust. With respect to
all rights other than the right to vote, the Trustee shall follow the directions
of the Sponsor. The Trustee shall have no duty to solicit directions from the
Sponsor.
(e) Stock.
-----
(i) FMC Technologies Stock Fund. Trust investments in FMC
---------------------------
Technologies Stock will not be permitted until the Spin-Off Date at which time
Trust investments in FMC Technologies Stock shall be made via the FMC
Technologies Stock Fund. Investments in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund shall
consist primarily of shares of FMC Technologies Stock. The FMC Technologies
Stock Fund shall also include cash or short-term liquid investments, in
accordance with this paragraph, in amounts designed to satisfy daily participant
exchange or withdrawal requests. Such holdings will include Colchester Street
Trust: Money Market Portfolio: Class I, or such other Mutual Fund as agreed to
in writing by the Sponsor and Trustee. The Sponsor shall, after consultation
with the Trustee, establish and communicate to the Trustee in writing a target
percentage and drift allowance for such short-term liquid investments. Subject
to its ability to execute open-market trades in FMC Technologies Stock or to
otherwise trade with the Sponsor, the Trustee shall be responsible for ensuring
that the short-term investments held in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund falls
within the agreed-upon range over time. Each Participant's hypothetical,
proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund shall be
10
measured in units of participation, rather than shares of FMC Technologies
Stock. Such units shall represent a hypothetical, proportionate interest in all
of the assets of the FMC Technologies Stock Fund, which includes shares of FMC
Technologies Stock, short-term investments and at times, receivables and
payables (such as receivables and payables arising out of unsettled stock
trades). The Trustee shall determine a daily NAV for each unit outstanding of
the FMC Technologies Stock Fund. Valuation of the FMC Technologies Stock Fund
shall be based upon: (1) the Closing Price or, if not available, (2) the price
determined in good faith by the Trustee taking into account the latest available
price of FMC Technologies Stock, as reported on the NYSE or such other principal
national securities exchange on which FMC Technologies Stock is traded. The NAV
shall be adjusted for gains or losses realized on sales of FMC Technologies
Stock, appreciation or depreciation in the value of those shares owned,
dividends paid on FMC Technologies Stock to the extent not used to purchase
additional units of the FMC Technologies Stock Fund for affected Participants,
and interest on the short-term investments held by the FMC Technologies Stock
Fund, payables and receivables for pending stock trades, receivables for
dividends not yet distributed, and payables for other expenses of the FMC
Technologies Stock Fund, including principal obligations, if any, and expenses
that, pursuant to Sponsor direction, the Trustee accrues or pays from the FMC
Technologies Stock Fund.
(A) Acquisition Limit. Pursuant to the Plan, the Trust may be
-----------------
invested in FMC Technologies Stock to the extent necessary to comply with
investment directions in accordance with this Agreement. The Sponsor shall be
responsible for providing specific direction on any acquisition limits required
by the Plan or applicable law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
contributions and exchanges into the FMC Technologies Stock Fund are prohibited
after the Sponsor distributes its interest in FMC Technologies, Inc.
(B) Fiduciary Duty. The Sponsor shall continually monitor the
--------------
suitability of acquiring and holding FMC Technologies Stock. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any loss or expense which arises from the directions of the
Sponsor with respect to the acquisition and holding of FMC Technologies Stock,
unless it is clear on their face that the actions to be taken under those
directions would be prohibited by the foregoing fiduciary duty rules or would be
contrary to the terms of this Agreement.
(C) Purchases and Sales of FMC Technologies Stock. Unless otherwise
---------------------------------------------
directed by the Sponsor in writing pursuant to directions that the Trustee can
administratively implement, the following provisions shall govern purchases and
sales of FMC Technologies Stock.
(I) Open Market Purchases and Sales. Purchases and sales of
-------------------------------
11
FMC Technologies Stock shall be made on the open market in accordance with the
Trustee's standard trading guidelines, as they may be amended by the Trustee
from time to time, as necessary to honor exchange and withdrawal activity and to
maintain the target cash percentage and drift allowance for the FMC Technologies
Stock Fund, provided that:
(1) If the Trustee is unable to purchase or
sell the total number of shares required to be purchased or sold on such day as
a result of market conditions; or
(2) If the Trustee is prohibited by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the NYSE or principal exchange on which FMC
Technologies Stock is traded, or any other regulatory body from purchasing or
selling any or all of the shares required to be purchased or sold on such day,
then the Trustee shall purchase or sell such shares as soon thereafter as
administratively feasible.
(II) Purchases and Sales from or to Sponsor. If
--------------------------------------
directed by the Sponsor in writing prior to the trading date, the Trustee may
purchase or sell FMC Technologies Stock from or to the Sponsor if the purchase
or sale is for adequate consideration and no commission is charged.
(III) Use of an Affiliated Broker. The Sponsor
---------------------------
hereby directs the Trustee to use NFSLLC to provide brokerage services in
connection with any purchase or sale of FMC Technologies Stock on the open
market, except in circumstances where the Trustee has determined, in accordance
with its standard trading guidelines or pursuant to Sponsor direction, to seek
expedited settlement of the trades. NFSLLC shall execute such directions
directly or through any of its affiliates. The provision of brokerage services
shall be subject to the following:
(1) As consideration for such brokerage
services, the Sponsor agrees that NFSLLC shall be entitled to remuneration under
this direction provision in an amount of no more than three and one-fifth cents
($.032) commission on each share of FMC Technologies Stock. Any change in such
remuneration may be made only by a signed agreement between the Sponsor and
Trustee.
(2) The Trustee will provide the Sponsor with
periodic reports which summarize all securities transaction-related charges

FMC Technologies Stock the names, addresses and social security numbers of each
Participant with a hypothetical interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund, and
the percentages of shares hypothetically owned by each Participant as of the
record date through reports and/or data tape. The issuer of FMC Technologies
Stock shall be responsible for distributing proxy materials and voting
instruction forms to Participants holding an interest in the FMC Technologies
Stock Fund. In the event that the issuer of FMC Technologies Stock does not
distribute said proxy materials and voting instruction forms to Participants
holding a hypothetical interest in FMC Technologies Stock, the Sponsor shall:
(1) utilize its best efforts to timely distribute or cause to be distributed to
Participants said information; and (2) upon request, provide the Trustee with a

that the materials have been mailed or otherwise sent to Participants.
Each Participant with a hypothetical interest in the FMC
Technologies Stock Fund (i.e. shares which are allocated to Participant's
hypothetical accounts) shall have the right to direct the Trustee as to the
manner in which the Trustee is to vote (including not to vote) that number of
shares of FMC Technologies Stock reflecting such Participant's hypothetical,
proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund (both vested and
unvested). Directions from a Participant to the Trustee concerning the voting of
FMC Technologies Stock shall be communicated in writing, or by such other means
as is agreed upon by the Trustee and the Sponsor. These directions shall be held
in confidence by the Trustee and shall not be divulged to the Sponsor, or any
officer or employee thereof, or any other person except to the extent that the
consequences of such directions are reflected in reports regularly communicated
to any such persons in the ordinary course of the performance of the Trustee's
services hereunder. Upon its receipt of the directions, the Trustee shall vote
the shares of FMC Technologies Stock reflecting the Participant's hypothetical,
proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund as directed by the
Participant. Except as otherwise required by law, the Trustee shall vote shares
of FMC
15
Technologies Stock reflecting a Participant's hypothetical, proportional
interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund for which it has received no
direction from the Participant, as well as shares that are unallocated, in the
same manner and in the same proportion as the total numbers of shares of FMC
Technologies Stock credited to the Participants, accounts for which it has
received direction from Participants.
(II) Tender Offers.
-------------
(1) Each Participant with a hypothetical, interest
in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund shall have the right to direct the Trustee to
tender or not to tender some or all of the shares of FMC Technologies Stock
reflecting such Participant's hypothetical, proportional interest in the FMC
Technologies Stock Fund (both vested and unvested). Directions from a
Participant to the Trustee concerning the tender of FMC Technologies Stock shall
be communicated in writing, or by such other means as is agreed upon by the
Trustee and the Sponsor. These directions shall be held in confidence by the

thereof, or any other person except to the extent that the consequences of such
directions are reflected in reports regularly communicated to any such persons
in the ordinary course of the performance of the Trustee's services hereunder.
The Trustee shall tender or not tender shares of FMC Technologies Stock as
directed by the Participant. Except as otherwise required by law, the Trustee
shall not tender shares of FMC Technologies Stock reflecting a Participant's
hypothetical, proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund for which
it has received no direction from the Participant.
(2) Except as otherwise required by law, the
Trustee shall tender that number of shares of FMC Technologies Stock not
credited to Participants' accounts in the same proportion as the total number of
shares of FMC Technologies Stock credited to Participants' accounts for which it
has received instructions from Participants.
(3) A direction by a Participant to the Trustee to
tender shares of FMC Technologies Stock reflecting the Participant's
hypothetical, proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund shall not
be considered a written election under the Plan by the Participant to withdraw,
or have distributed, any or all of his withdrawable shares. The Trustee shall
credit to each hypothetical, proportional interest of the Participant from which
the tendered shares were taken the proceeds received by the Trustee in exchange
for the shares of FMC Technologies Stock tendered from that interest. Pending
receipt of directions (through the Administrator) from the Participant or the
Sponsor,
16
as provided in the Plan, as to which of the remaining investment options the
proceeds should be invested in, the Trustee shall invest the proceeds in the
Fidelity Retirement Government Money Market Portfolio.
(4) A Participant who has directed the Trustee to
tender some or all of the shares of FMC Technologies Stock reflecting the
Participant's proportional interest in the FMC Technologies Stock Fund may, at
any time prior to the tender offer withdrawal date, direct the Trustee to
withdraw some or all of the tendered shares reflecting the Participant's
proportional interest, and the Trustee shall withdraw the directed number of
shares from the tender offer prior to the tender offer withdrawal deadline.
Prior to the withdrawal deadline, if any shares of FMC Technologies Stock not
credited to Participants' accounts have been tendered, the Trustee shall
redetermine the number of shares of FMC Technologies Stock that would be
tendered under Section 5(e)(i)(F)(II) if the date of the foregoing withdrawal
were the date of determination, and withdraw from the tender offer the number of
shares of FMC Technologies Stock not credited to Participants' accounts
necessary to reduce the amount of tendered FMC Technologies Stock not credited
to Participants' accounts to the amount so redetermined. A Participant shall not
be limited as to the number of directions to tender or withdraw that the
Participant may give to the Trustee.
(G) General. With respect to all shareholder rights other

or to otherwise trade with the Sponsor, the Trustee shall be responsible for
ensuring that the short-term investments held in the FMC Stock Fund falls within
the agreed-upon range over time. Each Participant's hypothetical, proportional
interest in the FMC Stock Fund shall be measured in units of participation,
rather than shares of FMC Stock. Such units shall represent a hypothetical,
proportionate interest in all of the assets of the FMC Stock Fund, which
includes shares of FMC Stock, short-term investments and at times, receivables
and payables (such as receivables and payables arising out of unsettled stock
trades). The Trustee shall determine a daily NAV for each unit outstanding of

Closing Price or, if not available, (2) the price determined in good faith by
the Trustee taking into account the latest available price of FMC Stock, as
reported on the NYSE or such other principal national securities exchange on
which FMC Stock is traded. The NAV shall be adjusted for gains or losses
realized on sales of FMC Stock, appreciation or depreciation in the value of
those shares owned, dividends paid on FMC Stock to the extent not used to
purchase additional units of the FMC Stock Fund for affected Participants, and
interest on the short-term investments held by the FMC Stock Fund, payables and

▇▇▇▇▇, and to the Trustee c/o ▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Fidelity Investments, ▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or to such other addresses
as the parties have notified each other of in the foregoing manner.
Section 13. Duration. This Trust shall continue in effect without limit as to
--------
time, subject, however, to the provisions of this Agreement relating to
amendment, modification, and termination thereof.
Section 14. Insolvency of Sponsor.
---------------------
(a) Trustee shall cease disbursement of funds for payment of benefits
to Participants and their beneficiaries if the Sponsor is Insolvent. Sponsor
shall be considered "Insolvent" for purposes of this Trust Agreement if (i)
Sponsor is unable to pay its debts as they become due, or (ii) Sponsor is
subject to a pending proceeding as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy
Code.
(b) All times during the continuance of this Trust, the principal and
income of the Trust shall be subject to claims of general creditors of the
Sponsor under federal and state law as set forth below.
27
(i) The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of
the Sponsor shall have the duty to inform Trustee in writing of Sponsor's
Insolvency. If a person claiming to be a creditor of the Sponsor alleges in
writing to Trustee that Sponsor has become Insolvent, Trustee shall determine
whether Sponsor is Insolvent and, pending such determination, Trustee shall
discontinue disbursements for payment of benefits to Plan Participants or their
beneficiaries.
(ii) Unless Trustee has actual knowledge of Sponsor's Insolvency,
or has received notice from Sponsor or a person claiming to be a creditor
alleging that Sponsor is Insolvent, Trustee shall have no duty to inquire
whether Sponsor is Insolvent. Trustee may in all events rely on such evidence
concerning Sponsor's solvency as may be furnished to Trustee and that provides
Trustee with a reasonable basis for making a determination concerning Sponsor's
solvency.
(iii) If at any time Trustee has determined that Sponsor is
Insolvent, Trustee shall discontinue disbursements for payments to Participants
or their beneficiaries and shall hold the assets of the Trust for the benefit of
Sponsor's general creditors. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall in any way
diminish any rights of Participants or their beneficiaries to pursue their
rights as general creditors of Sponsor with respect to benefits due under the
Plan or otherwise.
(iv) Trustee shall resume disbursement for the payment of
benefits to Participants or their beneficiaries in accordance with Section 4 of
this Trust Agreement only after Trustee has determined that Sponsor is not
Insolvent (or is no longer Insolvent).
(c) Provided that there are sufficient assets, if Trustee discontinues
the payment of benefits from the Trust pursuant to (a) hereof and subsequently
resumes such payments, the first payment following such discontinuance shall
include the aggregate amount of all payments due to Participants or their
beneficiaries under the terms of the Plan for the period of such discontinuance,
less the aggregate amount of any payments made to Participants or their
beneficiaries by Sponsor in lieu of the payments provided for hereunder during
any such period of discontinuance.
(d) Any Sponsor Stock contributed to the Trust by the Sponsor to meet
any obligation of an Affiliate or the Sponsor to Plan participants who are
employed by an Affiliate will be subject to the terms of this Section 14 as if
the term "Affiliate" is substituted for the term "Sponsor" wherever it appears
in Section 14(a) through (c).
Section 15. Change in Control. For purposes of this Trust, Change in Control
-----------------
shall mean the happening of any of the following events:
28

("Exchange Act")) (a "Person") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of twenty percent (20%) or more
of either (i) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Sponsor (the

(b) A change in the composition of the Board such that the individuals
who, as of the effective date of this Agreement ("Effective Date"), constitute
the Board (such Board will be hereinafter referred to as the "Incumbent Board")
cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided,
however, for purposes of this Section 15, that any individual who becomes a
member of the Board subsequent to the Effective Date, whose election, or
nomination for election by the Sponsor's stockholders, was approved by a vote of
at least a majority of those individuals who are members of the Board and who
were also members of the Incumbent Board (or deemed to be such pursuant to this
proviso) will be considered as though such individual were a member of the
Incumbent Board; but, provided further, that any such individual whose initial
assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened
election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A
promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation
of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board will not
be so considered as a member of the Incumbent Board;
(c) Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, sale or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Sponsor, or

percent (60%) of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock, and the
combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation
resulting from such Corporate Transaction (including, without limitation, a
corporation
29
which as a result of such transaction owns the Sponsor or all or substantially
all of the Sponsor's assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries)
in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to
such Corporate Transaction, of the Outstanding Sponsor Common Stock and
Outstanding Sponsor Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Person (other
than the Sponsor, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Sponsor or
such corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction) will beneficially
own, directly or indirectly, twenty percent (20%) or more of, respectively, the
outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such
Corporate Transaction or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting
securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the
Corporate Transaction, and (iii) individuals who were members of the Incumbent
Board will constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of
directors of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction; or
