provided to the Executive under the terms of the MRO Plan, this Agreement shall not be deemed to supercede, or
be in substitution of, any policy, program, contract or arrangement adopted by the Company prior to the
Retirement Date or any prior agreements between the Executive and the Company regarding Executive's employment,
including, without limitation, the Executive Severance Agreement between the Company, International and the

deemed to create an employment relationship between the Company and Executive. In providing such consulting
services, Executive shall be an independent contractor and shall not have the authority to bind the Company
with respect to any matter. The Company shall reimburse Executive for all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and
necessarily incurred in the performance of such consulting services, provided the Company's policies of

Termination as defined in paragraph 4(a) or 4(b) of the Executive Severance Agreement, the Retirement Date
shall be the date of such Termination; provided, however, in the event of a Termination as defined in paragraph
4(b) of the Executive Severance Agreement the Company shall pay the Executive, within 30 days after
Termination, a lump sum in cash equal to the present value of the Executive's accrued benefit under the MRO
Plan as determined hereunder. Such present value shall be determined using actuarial assumptions and discount
rules consistent with Company practices immediately prior to the Termination.

initiated by the Company to enforce the Executive's non-competition covenants) will be settled exclusively by
arbitration in Chicago, Illinois in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in
effect. Any arbitration award will be binding on the parties and may be enforced in any court having
jurisdiction.
10. Severability. If all or any part of this Agreement is declared by any court or governmental authority to be
unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity shall not invalidate any other portion of this Agreement.
Any section or a part of a section declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a
manner, or shall be deemed modified in a manner, which will give effect to the terms of the section to the
fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.
