ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS The undersigned hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers and sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. 3 4 (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 4 5 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Menlo Park, State of California, on this 22nd day of January, 1996.

We have assumed the authenticity of all records, documents and instruments submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons and the conformity to the originals of all records, documents and instruments submitted to us as copies. 1 2 In rendering our opinion, we have examined the following records, documents and instruments: (a) The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as of January 19, 1996 and certified to us by an officer of the Company as being complete and in full force and effect as of the date of this opinion; (b) The Bylaws of the Company, certified to us by an officer of the Company as being complete and in full force and effect as of the date of this opinion; (c) A Certificate of the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (i) attaching records certified to us as constituting all records of proceedings and actions of the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company relating to the Plans and the Registration Statement, and (ii) certifying as to certain factual matters; (d) The Registration Statement; (e) The Plans; and (f) A letter from Harris Trust and Savings Bank, the Company's transfer agent, dated January 17, 1996, as to the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding on January 16, 1996. This opinion is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law, and we disclaim any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. We further disclaim any opinion as to any other statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, order or other promulgation of any other jurisdiction or any regional or local governmental body or as to any related judicial or administrative opinion. Based upon the foregoing and our examination of such questions of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for 2 3 the purpose of this opinion, and assuming that (i) the Registration Statement becomes and remains effective during the period when the Shares are offered and issued, (ii) the full consideration stated in the Plans is paid for each Share and that such consideration in respect of each Share includes payment of cash or other lawful consideration at least equal to the par value thereof, and (iii) all applicable securities laws are complied with, it is our opinion that when issued and sold by the Company, after payment therefor in the manner provided in the Plans and in the Registration Statement, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. This opinion is rendered to you in connection with the Registration Statement and is solely for your benefit. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or relied upon by any other person, firm, corporation or other entity for any purpose, without our prior written consent. We disclaim any obligation to advise you of any change of law that occurs, or any facts of which we become aware, after the date of this opinion. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. Very truly yours, HELLER, EHRMAN, WHITE & MCAULIFFE 3 EX-23.2 3 CONSENT OF PRICE WATERHOUSE 1 EXHIBIT 23.2 CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS We hereby consent to the incorporation by reference in this Registration Statement on Form S-8 of our report dated July 18, 1995, which appears on page 27 of the 1995 Annual Report to Stockholders of Raychem Corporation, which is incorporated by reference in Raychem Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1995.

The total number of shares of Stock reserved and available for issuance pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be 4,950,000 shares. Such shares may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares or shares reacquired in private transactions or open market purchases, but all shares issued under the Plan regardless of source shall be counted against the 4,950,000 share limitation. If (i) any Option terminates or expires without being exercised in full, (ii) any shares of Stock issued as Restricted Stock or Performance Shares or issued pursuant to Stock Purchase Rights are forfeited prior to conferring on their holder benefits of ownership other than voting rights or accumulated dividends that are not realized, or (iii) an Award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the participant in the form of Stock, the shares issuable under such Option or Award, or forfeited without conferring benefits as described above, shall again be available for issuance in connection with other Awards. If any shares of Stock subject to an Award are repurchased by the Company or are forfeited after conferring benefits as described above, such shares of Stock shall not again be available for issuance in connection with Awards. To the extent an Award is paid in cash, the number of shares of Stock representing, at Fair Market Value on the date of payment, the value of the cash payment shall not be available for later grant under the Plan. 3 4 (b) Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, such substitution or adjustments shall be made in the aggregate number of shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan, in the number of shares of Stock specified in Section 3(c), in the number and exercise price of shares subject to outstanding Options, and in the number of shares subject to other outstanding Awards, as may be determined to be appropriate by the Committee, in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the number of shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number. (c) Individual Limitation. The Company may not issue Options with a Fair Market Value exercise price as of the date of grant covering in the aggregate more than 200,000 shares of Stock (subject to adjustments and substitutions as required under Section 3(b) above) to any one participant in any one-year period. If and when the Committee establishes performance criteria for the award of Options with an exercise price of less than Fair Market Value, the award of Restricted Stock or Performance Share Awards, the Company may limit the number of shares issuable under such Awards to the extent required to comply with the limitation on amounts deductible by the Company under Section 162(m) of the Code. SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY. Awards may be granted to officers and other key employees of, and consultants to, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates (excluding members of the Committee and any person who serves only as a director). SECTION 5. STOCK OPTIONS. (a) Types. Any Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall have the authority to grant to any participant Incentive Stock Options, Supplemental Stock Options or both types of Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company, its parent (within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code) or Subsidiaries. Any portion of an Option that is not designated as, or does not qualify as, an Incentive Stock Option shall constitute a Supplemental Stock Option. (b) Terms and Conditions. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) Option Term. The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date the Option is granted, and no Supplemental Stock Option shall be exercisable more than fifteen (15) years after the date the Option is granted. If, at the time the Company grants an Incentive Stock Option, the optionee owns directly or by attribution stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company, the Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable more than five (5) years after the date of grant. (ii) Grant Date. The Company may grant Options under the Plan at any time and from time to time before the Plan terminates. The Committee shall specify the date of grant or, if it fails to, the date of grant shall be the date of action taken by the Committee to grant the Option. However, if an Option is approved in anticipation of employment, the date of grant shall be the date the intended optionee is first treated as an employee for payroll purposes. (iii) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Stock purchasable under an Option shall be equal to at least 85% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant, and in the 4 5 case of Incentive Stock Options shall be equal to at least the Fair Market Value on the date of grant; provided, however, that if, at the time the Company grants an Incentive Stock Option, the optionee owns directly or by attribution stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, or any parent or Subsidiary of the Company, then the exercise price shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted. (iv) Exercisability. Subject to the other provisions of the Plan, an Option shall be exercisable in its entirety at grant or at such times and in such amounts as are specified in the Award Agreement evidencing the Option. The Committee, in its absolute discretion, at any time may waive any limitations respecting the time at which an Option first becomes exercisable in whole or in part. (v) Method of Exercise; Payment. To the extent the right to purchase shares has accrued, Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, from time to time, by written notice from the optionee to the Company stating the number of shares being purchased, accompanied by payment of the exercise price for the shares. (vi) No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, no term of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be exercised so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the optionee affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under such Section 422. SECTION 6. RESTRICTED STOCK. (a) Price. Participants awarded Restricted Stock, within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the applicable Award Agreement, which in no event shall be later than ten (10) days after the Award grant date, shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the par value of the Stock subject to the Award. If such payment is not made and received by the Company by such date, the Award of Restricted Stock shall lapse. (b) Restrictions. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Award Agreement, during the Restriction Period set by the Committee, commencing with, and not exceeding ten (10) years from, the date of such award, the participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber shares of Restricted Stock. Within these limits, the Committee may provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions, in whole or in part, based on service, performance or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine. (c) Dividends. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, with respect to dividends on shares of Restricted Stock, dividends payable in cash shall be automatically reinvested in additional Restricted Stock, and dividends payable in Stock shall be paid in the form of Restricted Stock. (d) Termination. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the Award Agreement and pursuant to Section 6(b), in the event of a Termination during the Restriction Period, all shares still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by the participant. SECTION 7. PERFORMANCE SHARES. (a) Awards. The Committee shall determine the nature, length and starting date of the Performance Period for each Performance Share Award, which period shall be at least two (2) years 5 6 (subject to Section 8) and not more than six (6) years. The consideration payable by a participant with respect to a Performance Share Award shall be an amount determined by the Committee in the exercise of the Committee's discretion at the time of the Award; provided, however, that the amount of consideration may be zero and may in no event exceed 50% of the Fair Market Value at the time of grant. The Committee shall determine the performance objectives to be used in awarding Performance Shares and the extent to which such Performance Shares have been earned. Performance Periods may overlap and participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Performance Share Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and different performance factors and criteria. At the beginning of each Performance Period, the Committee shall determine for each Performance Share Award subject to such Performance Period the number of shares of Stock (which may consist of Restricted Stock) to be awarded to the participant at the end of the Performance Period if and to the extent that the relevant measures of performance for such Performance Share Award are met. Such number of shares of Stock may be fixed or may vary in accordance with such performance or other criteria as may be determined by the Committee. The Committee may provide that (i) amounts equivalent to interest at such rates as the Committee may determine, or (ii) amounts equivalent to dividends paid by the Company upon outstanding Stock shall be payable with respect to Performance Share Awards. (b) Termination. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement or determined by the Committee, in the event of a Termination during a Performance Period, the participant shall not be entitled to any payment with respect to the Performance Shares subject to the Performance Period. (c) Form of Payment. Payment shall be made in the form of cash or whole shares of Stock, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine. SECTION 8. CHANGE IN CONTROL. (a) Definition of "Change in Control". For purposes of Section 8(b), a "Change in Control" means the occurrence of any one of the following: (i) Any "person", as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act (other than the Company, a subsidiary, an affiliate, or a Company employee benefit plan, including any trustee of such plan acting as trustee) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; (ii) the solicitation of proxies (within the meaning of Rule 14a-1(k) under the Exchange Act and any successor rule with respect to the election of any director of the Company where such solicitation is for any candidate who is not a candidate proposed by a majority of the Board in office prior to the time of such election; or (iii) the dissolution or liquidation (partial or total) of the Company or a sale of assets involving 30% or more of the assets of the Company, any merger or reorganization of the Company whether or not another entity is the survivor, a transaction pursuant to which the holders, as a group, of all of the shares of the Company outstanding prior to the transaction hold, as a group, less than 70% of the shares of the Company outstanding after the transaction, or any 6 7 other event which the Committee determines, in its discretion, would materially alter the structure of the Company or its ownership. (b) Impact of Event. In the event of a "Change in Control" as defined in Section 8(a), but only if and to the extent so specifically determined by the Committee in its discretion, which determination may be amended or reversed only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the persons who were members of the Committee at the time such determination was made, acceleration and valuation provisions no more favorable to participants than the following may apply: (i) Subject to Section 5(b)(vi), any Options outstanding as of the date such Change in Control is determined to have occurred and not then exercisable and vested shall become fully exercisable and vested. (ii) The restrictions and limitations applicable to any Restricted Stock shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock shall become fully vested. (iii) The value (net of any exercise price) of all outstanding Options and Restricted Stock, unless otherwise determined by the Committee at or after grant and subject to Rule 16b-3, shall be cashed out on the basis of the "Change in Control Price", as defined in Section 8(c), as of the date such Change in Control is determined to have occurred or such other date as the Committee may determine prior to the Change in Control. (iv) Any outstanding Performance Share Awards shall be vested and paid in full as if all performance criteria had been met. (c) Change in Control Price. For purposes of this Section 8, "Change in Control Price" means the highest price per share paid in any transaction reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape or paid or offered in any bona fide transaction related to a potential or actual Change in Control of the Company at any time during the preceding 60-day period as determined by the Committee, except that, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, such price shall be based only on transactions reported for the date on which the Committee decides to cash out such Options. SECTION 9. GENERAL PROVISIONS. (a) Award Grants. Any Award may be granted either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. Subject to the terms and restrictions set forth elsewhere in the Plan, the Committee shall determine the consideration, if any, payable by the participant for any Award and, in addition to those set forth in the Plan, any other terms and conditions of the Awards. The Committee may condition the grant or payment of any Award upon the attainment of specified performance goals or such other factors or criteria, including vesting based on continued employment or consulting, as the Committee shall determine. Performance objectives may vary from participant to participant and among groups of participants and shall be based upon such Company, subsidiary, group or division factors or criteria as the Committee may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, earnings per share or return on equity. The other provisions of Awards also need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Unless specified otherwise in the Plan or by the Committee, the date of grant of an Award shall be the date of action by the Committee to grant the Award. The Committee may also substitute new Options for previously granted options, including previously granted Options having higher exercise prices. 7 8 (b) Award Agreement. As soon as practicable after the date of an Award grant, the Company and the participant shall enter into a written Award Agreement identifying the date of grant, and specifying the terms and conditions of the Award. Options are not exercisable until after execution of the Award agreement by the Company and the Plan participant, but a delay in execution of the agreement shall not affect the validity of the Option grant. (c) Certificates. All certificates for shares of Stock or other securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed and any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law. (d) Termination. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or by the Committee, in the event of Termination for any reason other than death, Retirement or Disability, Awards held at the date of Termination (and only to the extent then exercisable or payable, as the case may be) may be exercised in whole or in part at any time within three (3) months after the date of Termination, or such lesser period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event after the expiration date of the Award), but not thereafter. If Termination is due to death or Disability or, in the case of Awards granted prior to August 2, 1991, Retirement, Awards held at the date of Termination (and only to the extent then exercisable or payable, as the case may be) may be exercised in whole or in part by the participant in the case of Retirement or Disability, by the participant's guardian or legal representative or by the person to whom the Award is transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, at any time within two (2) years from the date of Termination or any lesser period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event after the expiration of the Award). For Awards granted on or after August 2, 1991 and before August 12, 1994, if Termination is due to Retirement, Awards held at the date of Termination shall become fully exercisable or payable, as the case may be, and may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the participant, by the participant's guardian or legal representative or by the person to whom the Award is transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, at any time within three (3) years from the date of such Termination or any lesser period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event after the expiration of the Award). For Awards granted on or after August 12, 1994, if Termination is due to Retirement, Awards held at the date of Termination shall become fully exercisable or payable, as the case may be, and may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the participant, by the participant's guardian or legal representative or by the person to whom the Award is transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, at any time within five (5) years from the date of such Termination or any lesser period specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event after the expiration of the Award). (e) Delivery of Purchase Price. If and only to the extent authorized by the Committee, participants may make all or any portion of any payment due to the Company (i) with respect to the consideration payable for an Award, (ii) upon exercise of an Award, or (iii) with respect to federal, state, local or foreign tax payable in connection with an Award, by delivery of (x) cash, (y) check, or (z) any property other than cash (including a promissory note of the participant or shares of Stock or securities) so long as, if applicable, such property constitutes valid consideration for the Stock under applicable law. No promissory note under the Plan shall have a term (including extensions) of more than five (5) years or shall be of a principal amount exceeding 90% of the purchase price paid by the borrower. To the extent participants may make payments due to the Company upon grant or exercise of Awards by the delivery of shares of Stock or other securities, the Committee, in its discretion, may permit participants 8 9 constructively to deliver for any such payment securities of the Company held by the participant for at least three (3) months or, if such securities were acquired through the exercise of an Award, for at least six (6) months. Constructive delivery shall be effected by (i) identification by the participant of shares intended to be delivered constructively, (ii) confirmation by the Company of participant's ownership of such shares (for example, by reference to the Company's stock records, or by some other means of verification), and (iii) if applicable, upon exercise, delivery to the participant of a certificate for that number of shares equal to the number of shares for which the Award is exercised less the number of shares constructively delivered. If authorized by the Committee, exercise of an Option may be made pursuant to a "cashless exercise/sale" procedure pursuant to which funds to pay for exercise of the Option are delivered to the issuer by a broker upon receipt of stock certificates from the issuer, or pursuant to which participants obtain margin loans from brokers to fund the exercise of the Option. (f) Tax Withholding. If and to the extent authorized by the Committee, in its sole discretion, a person who has received an Award or payment under an Award, may make an election (i) to deliver to the Company a promissory note of the participant on the terms set forth in Section 9(e), (ii) to tender to the Company previously owned shares of Stock, or (iii) to have shares of Stock to be obtained upon exercise of the Award or lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award withheld by the Company on behalf of the participant, to pay the amount of tax that the Committee, in its discretion, determines to be required to be withheld by the Company. Any election pursuant to clause (iii) above by a participant subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be subject to the following limitations: (1) such election must be made at least six (6) months before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld in connection with such exercise or lapse of restrictions is determined (the "Tax Date") and shall be irrevocable; or (2) (x) such election must be made in (or made earlier to take effect in) any ten-day period beginning on the third business day following the date of release for publication of the Company's quarterly or annual summary statements of earnings and shall be subject to approval by the Committee at any time after such election has been made, and (y) the Award must be held at least six (6) months prior to the Tax Date. The right to so withhold shares of Stock shall attach separately to each Award. Any shares tendered to or withheld by the Company shall be valued at Fair Market Value on such date. The value of the shares of Stock tendered or withheld may not exceed the required federal, state, local and foreign withholding tax obligations as computed by the Company. Unless the Committee permits otherwise, the participant shall pay to the Company in cash, promptly when the amount of such obligations becomes determinable, all applicable federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes that the Committee, in its discretion, determines to result from the lapse of restrictions imposed upon an Award or upon exercise of an Award or from a transfer or other disposition of shares of Stock acquired upon exercise or payment of an Award or otherwise related to the Award or shares of Stock acquired in connection with an Award. (g) No Transferability. No Award shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by the participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During the life of a participant, an Award shall be exercisable, and any elections with respect to an Award may be made, only by the participant or participant's guardian or legal representative. (h) Adjustment of Awards; Waivers. Subject to Section 5(b)(vi), the Committee may adjust the performance goals and measurements applicable to Awards (i) to take into account changes in law and accounting and tax rules, (ii) to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the inclusion or exclusion of the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or 9 10 circumstances in order to avoid windfalls or hardships, and (iii) to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect any material changes in business conditions. In the event of hardship or other special circumstances of a participant and otherwise in its discretion, the Committee may waive in whole or in part any or all restrictions, conditions, vesting, or forfeiture with respect to any Award granted to such participant. (i) Non-Competition. The Committee may condition its discretionary waiver of a forfeiture, the acceleration of vesting at the time of Termination of a participant holding any unexercised or unearned Award, the waiver of restrictions on any Award, or the extension of the expiration period to a period not longer than that provided by the Plan upon such participant's agreement (and compliance with such agreement) to (i) not engage in any business or activity competitive with any business or activity conducted by the Company and (ii) be available for consultations at the request of the Company's management, all on such terms and conditions (including conditions in addition to (i) and (ii)) as the Committee may determine. (j) Dividends. The reinvestment of dividends in additional Stock or Restricted Stock at the time of any dividend payment pursuant to Section 6(c) shall only be permissible if sufficient shares of Stock are available under Section 3 for such reinvestment (taking into account then outstanding Awards). (k) Regulatory Compliance. Each Award under the Plan shall be subject to the condition that, if at any time the Committee shall determine that (i) the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Stock, Common Shares, or Preferred Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, (ii) the consent or approval of any government or regulatory body or (iii) an agreement by the participant with respect thereto, is necessary or desirable, then such Award shall not be consummated in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or agreement shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. (l) Listing. So long as the Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, shares of Stock for use under the provisions of the Plan shall not be issued until they have been duly listed, upon official notice of issuance, on the New York Stock Exchange and any other exchanges determined by the Board. (m) Rights as Stockholder. Unless the Plan or the Committee expressly specifies otherwise, an optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Award until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or a duly authorized transfer agent) of a certificate evidencing the shares of Stock. Subject to Sections 3(b) and 6(c), no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date precedes the date the certificate is issued. (n) Beneficiary Designation. The Committee, in its discretion, may establish procedures for a participant to designate a beneficiary to whom any amounts payable in the event of the participant's death are to be paid. (o) Additional Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company, a subsidiary or an affiliate from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements for its employees and consultants. (p) No Employment Rights. The adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any employee any right to continued employment nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company, a subsidiary or an affiliate to terminate the employment of any employee at any time. 10 11 (q) Rule 16b-3. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, the Plan shall always be administered, and Awards shall always be granted and exercised, in such a manner as to conform to the provisions of Rule 16b-3. (r) Governing Law. Except as required by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Plan and all Awards shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. (s) Use of Proceeds. All cash proceeds to the Company under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company. (t) Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan shall constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. The Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Stock or make payments; provided, however, that unless the Committee otherwise determines, the existence of such trusts or other arrangements shall be consistent with the "unfunded" status of the Plan. (u) Assumption by Successor. The obligations of the Company under the Plan and under any outstanding Award may be assumed by any successor corporation, which for purposes of the Plan shall be included within the meaning of "Company". SECTION 10. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION. The Board may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan or any Award, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuance shall be made which would impair the rights of a participant under an outstanding Award without the participant's consent. In addition, to the extent required for the Plan to comply with Rule 16b-3 or, with respect to provisions solely as they relate to Incentive Stock Options, to the extent required for the Plan to comply with Section 422 of the Code, the Board may not amend or alter the Plan without the approval of a majority of the votes cast at a duly held stockholders' meeting at which a quorum of the voting power of the Company is represented in person or by proxy, where such amendment or alteration would: (a) except as expressly provided in the Plan, increase the total number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to Awards under the Plan; (b) except as expressly provided in the Plan, change the minimum price terms of Section 5(b)(iii); (c) change the class of employees and consultants eligible to participate in the Plan; (d) extend the maximum Option period under Section 5(b)(i); or (e) materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the Plan. SECTION 11. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN. The Plan shall be effective on the date it is adopted by the Board but all Awards shall be conditioned upon approval of the Plan at a duly held stockholders' meeting by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of the Company represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting. 11 12 SECTION 12. TERM OF PLAN. No Award shall be granted on or after October 31, 2000, but Awards granted prior to October 31, 2000 may extend beyond that date. 12 EX-99.2 5 AMENDED AND RESTATED 1984 EMPLOYEE STOCK PLAN 1 EXHIBIT 99.2 RAYCHEM CORPORATION AMENDED AND RESTATED 1984 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 1. Purpose The Amended and Restated 1984 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") is designed to encourage and assist employees of Raychem Corporation and participating subsidiaries (together, the "Company") to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the purchase of shares of Common Stock. 2. Administration (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors except to the extent the Board of Directors, by resolution, delegates administration of the Plan, either in its entirety or only as it relates to persons subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to a committee of the Board. The Board of Directors or the committee to which the Board of Directors delegates administration hereunder, in either case, are hereinafter referred to as the "Board." (b) The Corporate Benefits Committee, or such other committee or persons as the Board may from time to time select (the "Administrator"), shall be responsible any matters for which disinterested administration is not required for purposes of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and for such additional matters as the Board shall determine from time to time. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, to the overall supervision of the Board, and to the limitations of Section 423 or any successor provision of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Administrator may administer and interpret the Plan in any manner it believes to be desirable and any such interpretation shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and all participants. 1 2 3. Shares Subject to Plan (a) Number of Shares. The Company has reserved for sale under the Plan 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, less any shares sold under either the Plan, the Amended and Restated Raychem Limited Employee Stock Purchase Plan or the Amended and Restated 1985 Supplemental Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Shares sold under the Plan may be newly issued shares or shares reacquired in private transactions or open market purchases, but all shares sold under the Plan regardless of source shall be counted against the 15,000,000 share limitation. (b) Adjustments. In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation, offering of rights, or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, the Administrator may make such adjustment, if any, as it deems appropriate in the number, kind, and purchase price of the shares available for purchase under the Plan and in the maximum number of shares subject to any option under the Plan. 4. Eligibility Requirements Each employee, except those described in the next paragraph, shall become eligible to participate in the Plan in accordance with Section 5 on the first Enrollment Date (as herein defined) following employment by the Company. Participation in the Plan is entirely voluntary. The following employees are not eligible to participate in the Plan: (i) employees who would, immediately upon enrollment in the Plan, own directly or indirectly, or hold options or rights to acquire, an aggregate of 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all outstanding shares of all classes of the Company or any subsidiary; (ii) employees who are customarily employed by the Company less than 15 hours per week or less than five months in any calendar year; and 2 3 (iii) employees who are prohibited by the laws of the nation of their residence or employment from participating in the Plan. "Employee" shall mean any individual who performs services for Raychem Corporation or a participating subsidiary pursuant to an employment relationship described in Treasury Regulations Section 31.3401(c)-1 or any successor provision. "Subsidiary" shall mean any corporation in an unbroken chain of corporations beginning with Raychem Corporation if, as of the applicable Enrollment Date, each of the corporations other than the last corporation in the chain owns stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in the chain. "Participating Subsidiary" shall mean a Subsidiary which has been designated by the Administrator as covered by the Plan. 5. Participation Enrollment. Any eligible employee may enroll or re-enroll in the Plan as of the first trading day of any February, May, August and November, or as of such other specific trading days established by the Administrator from time to time (each an "Enrollment Date"). In order to enroll an eligible employee must complete, sign, and submit to the Company an enrollment form. An enrollment form must be received by the Company before the date established by the Administrator from time to time (each a "Cut-Off Date"); provided, however, that in no event shall a Cut-Off Date be more than 60 days before an Enrollment Date. An enrollment form that is received before a Cut-Off Date shall be effective on the Enrollment Date to which such Cut-Off Date relates. 6. Options to Purchase Common Stock (a) Grant of Options. Enrollment by a participant in the Plan on an Enrollment Date will constitute the grant by the Company to the participant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan. The number of options granted will equal the number of percentage points of salary the participant elects to have withheld. Re-enrollment by a participant in the Plan will constitute cancellation by the participant of one or 3 4 more outstanding options and the grant by the Company to the participant of new options (equal in number to the number of options canceled) on the Enrollment Date on which re-enrollment occurs. An increase (but not a decrease) in the level of payroll withholding also constitutes the grant of new options for the incremental change in the percentage withheld but does not cancel outstanding options. Any participant whose options expire and who has not withdrawn from the Plan will automatically be re-enrolled in the Plan and granted new options (equal in number to the number of expiring options) on the Enrollment Date immediately following the Purchase Date on which the participant's then current options expire. Any date on which a participant is granted options under the Plan is referred to as a "Grant Date." (b) Terms and Conditions of Options. Each option granted under the Plan shall have the following terms: (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 6(c), whether or not all shares of Common Stock have been purchased thereunder, the option will expire on the earliest to occur of (A) the completion of the purchase of shares on the last Purchase Date occurring within 12 months of the Grant Date for such option, or such shorter option period as may be established by the Board from time to time prior to an Enrollment Date for all options to be granted on such Enrollment Date, or (B) the date on which participation of such participant in the Plan terminates for any reason; (ii) payment for shares purchased under the option will be made only through payroll withholding in accordance with Section 7; (iii) purchase of shares upon exercise of the option will be accomplished only in installments in accordance with Section 8; (iv) the price per share under the option will be determined as provided in Section 8; (v) unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the number of shares available for purchase under each option shall be equal to the number of shares determined by 4 5 dividing $3333 1/3 by the fair market value of a share determined at the Grant Date of such option; (vi) notwithstanding clause (v), no option (taken together with all other options then outstanding under this Plan and under all other similar stock purchase plans of the Raychem Corporation or any Subsidiary) shall in any event give the participant the right to purchase shares at a rate which accrues in excess of $25,000 of fair market value of such shares determined at the applicable Grant Dates in any calendar year during which such participant is enrolled in the Plan at any time; and (vii) the option will in all respects be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, as interpreted by the Administrator from time to time. 7. Payroll Withholding (a) Withholding Elections. Each participant may elect to make contributions at a rate equal to any whole percentage up to a maximum of 15%, or such other maximum percentage as the Board may establish from time to time before an Enrollment Date for all options to be granted on such Enrollment Date, of his or her monthly base earnings from the Company (excluding bonuses, overtime pay, shift premiums, long term disability or workers' compensation payments and similar amounts, but including elective qualified contributions by the participant to employee benefit plans). The rate of contribution shall be designated by the participant in the enrollment form. A participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of contribution effective as of any Enrollment Date by delivery to the Company not later than the related Cut-Off Date of a new enrollment form indicating the revised rate of contribution. An increase (but not a decrease) in the contribution rate constitutes the grant of new options. If the rate is decreased and there is more than one option outstanding, the participant may specify the option to which such decrease should apply. (b) Use of Funds. Contributions shall be credited to a participant's account as soon as administratively feasible after payroll withholding. The Company shall be entitled to use of the contributions immediately after payroll withholding and shall 5 6 have no obligation to pay interest on the contributions to any participant. 8. Purchase of Shares (a) Purchase Procedures. On the last trading day of each January, April, July and October, or on such other specific trading days as may be established by the Administrator from time to time prior to an Enrollment Date for all options to be granted on such Enrollment Date (each a "Purchase Date"), the Company shall apply the funds then credited to each participant's account to the purchase of whole and fractional shares of Common Stock. The cost to the participant for the shares purchased under any option shall be 85% of the lower of: (i) the closing price of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange composite transactions tape on the Grant Date for such option; or (ii) the closing price of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange composite transactions tape on that Purchase Date. Any cash equal to less than the price of the smallest fractional share of Common Stock which may be purchased under the Plan left in a participant's payroll deduction account on a Purchase Date shall be carried forward in such participant's account for application on the next Purchase Date. The Administrator may in the case of participants employed by participating subsidiaries provide for Common Stock to be sold through the relevant Participating Subsidiaries to such participants, to the extent consistent with Section 423 of the Code. (b) Certificates Evidencing Common Stock. At the election of the participant, certificates evidencing shares purchased on any Purchase Date shall be delivered as soon as administratively feasible or a notation of noncertificated shares shall be made on the stock records of the Company, but, in either case, participants shall be treated as the owners of their shares effective as of the Purchase Date. 6 7 9. Withdrawal From the Plan A participant may withdraw from the Plan in full (but not in part) at any time. All funds credited to a participant's payroll deduction account shall be distributed to him or her without interest as soon as administratively feasible after notice of withdrawal is received by the Company. An employee who has withdrawn may not return funds to the Company and require the Company to apply those funds to the purchase of shares. Any eligible employee who has withdrawn from the Plan may, however, enroll in the Plan again on any subsequent Enrollment Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 5. 10. Termination of Employment Participation in the Plan terminates immediately when a participant ceases to be employed by the Company for any reason whatsoever (including death or disability) or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan. As soon as administratively feasible after termination, the Company shall pay to the participant or his or her beneficiary or legal representative all amounts credited to the participant's payroll deduction account. 11. Leave of Absence Unless a participant has voluntarily withdrawn from the Plan, shares will be purchased for that participant's account on the Purchase Date next following commencement of a leave of absence by such participant. Participation in the Plan will terminate immediately after the purchase of shares on such Purchase Date, however, unless: (i) the leave of absence is of less than 90 days' duration and is due to illness, injury or other reason approved by the Administrator; or (ii) the participant's right to reemployment after such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. 7 8 12. Designation of Beneficiary Each participant may designate one or more beneficiaries in the event of death and may, in his or her sole discretion, change such designation at any time. Any such designation shall be effective upon receipt by the Company and shall control over any disposition by will or otherwise. As soon as administratively feasible after the death of a participant, fractional shares will be sold and the cash proceeds along with a certificate representing whole shares credited to his or her account shall be delivered to the designated beneficiaries or, in the absence of a designation, to the executor, administrator or other legal representative of the participant's estate. Such delivery shall relieve the Company of further liability with respect to the Plan on account of the deceased participant. If more than one beneficiary is designated, each beneficiary shall receive an equal portion of the account unless the participant has given express contrary instructions. 13. Assignment The rights of a participant under the Plan shall not be assignable by such participant, by operation of law, or otherwise. No participant may create a lien on any funds, securities, rights or other property held by the Company for the account of the participant under the Plan, except to the extent that there has been a designation of beneficiaries in accordance with the Plan, and except to the extent permitted by the laws of descent and distribution if beneficiaries have not been designated. A participant's right to purchase shares under the Plan shall be exercisable only during the participant's lifetime and only by him or her, except that a participant may direct the Company in the enrollment form to issue share certificates to the participant jointly with one or more other persons with right of survivorship, or to certain forms of trusts approved by the Administrator. 14. Administrative Assistance 8 9 The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, retain a brokerage firm, bank, or other financial institution to assist in the purchase of shares, delivery of reports, or other administrative aspects of the Plan. If the Administrator so elects, each participant shall (unless prohibited by the laws of the nation of his or her employment or residence) be deemed upon enrollment in the Plan to have authorized the establishment of an account on his or her behalf at such institution. Shares purchased by a participant under the Plan shall be held in the account in the participant's name, or if the participant so indicates in the enrollment form, in the participant's name together with the name of one or more other persons, in joint tenancy with right of survivorship or spousal community property, or in certain forms of trusts approved by the Administrator. 15. Costs All costs and expenses incurred in administering the Plan shall be paid by the Company, except that any stamp duties or transfer taxes applicable to participation in the Plan may be charged to a participant's account. Any brokerage fees for the purchase of shares by a participant shall be paid by the Company, but brokerage and/or bank fees for the resale of shares by a participant shall be borne by the participant. 16. Reports The Company shall provide or cause to be provided to each participant a report of his or her contributions and the shares purchased by that participant on each Purchase Date. 9 10 17. Equal Rights and Privileges All eligible employees shall have equal rights and privileges with respect to the Plan so that the Plan qualifies as an "employee stock purchase plan" within the meaning of Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code and the related regulations. Any provision of the Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision of the Code shall without further act or amendment by the Company or the Board be reformed to comply with the requirements of Section 423. This Section 17 shall take precedence over all other provisions in the Plan. 18. Applicable Law The Plan shall be governed by the substantive laws (excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of California. 19. Modification and Termination The Board may amend, alter or terminate the Plan at any time. No amendment shall be effective unless within one year after it is adopted by the Board it is approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company's outstanding shares, if such amendment would: (i) increase the number of shares reserved for purchase under the Plan; (ii) materially increase the benefits to participants; or (iii) materially modify the requirements for participation. The Board may elect to terminate any or all outstanding options at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, the Board may also elect either to terminate outstanding options upon completion of the purchase of shares on the next Purchase Date, or to permit options to expire in accordance with their terms (and participation to continue through such expiration dates). 10 11 If the options are terminated prior to expiration, all funds contributed to the Plan that have not been used to purchase shares shall be returned to the participants as soon as administratively feasible. If at any time the shares available under the Plan are over-enrolled, enrollments shall be reduced proportionately to eliminate the over-enrollment. Any funds that cannot be applied to the purchase of shares due to over-enrollment shall be refunded to participants as soon as administratively feasible. 20. Board and Stockholder Approval This Plan was approved by the Board of Directors on August 3, 1984 and by the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company on October 1, 1984.

Purpose The Amended and Restated 1985 Supplemental Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") is designed to encourage and assist employees of participating subsidiaries (the "Participating Subsidiaries") of Raychem Corporation (the "Company") to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the purchase of shares of Common Stock of the Company. The terms and conditions of purchase are designed to be substantially the same in economic substance as the terms for employees of the Company under the Amended and Restated 1984 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "1984 Plan") but may vary as to procedures for purchase as desirable or necessary to reflect the tax, employment, securities, foreign exchange or other applicable laws and regulations in effect from time to time in the nations in which the Participating Subsidiaries are located. 2. Administration (a) The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company unless and until such time as the Board of Directors delegates administration to a committee pursuant to Section 2(b). (b) The Board of Directors, by resolution, may delegate administration of the Plan, either in its entirety or only as it relates to persons subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to a committee of the Board. The Board of Directors or the committee to which the Board of Directors delegates administration hereunder, in either case, are hereafter referred to as the "Board." 1 2 (c) The Corporate Benefits Committee, or such other committee or persons as the Board may from time to time select (the "Administrator") shall be responsible for the matters set forth herein and for such additional matters as the Board shall determine from time to time. At the time that the Plan is adopted by a Participating Subsidiary, the Administrator, after consultation with the management of the Participating Subsidiary and local legal and financial advisors, where required, shall publish supplemental rules for administration of the Plan (the "Rules") for that Participating Subsidiary. The Rules shall specify purchase procedures under the Plan for that Participating Subsidiary so as to comply with the tax, employment, securities, foreign exchange or other applicable laws of the nation where the Participating Subsidiary is located without materially affecting the economic substance of the Plan with respect to the Company or participants. (d) The Administrator shall have the power, subject to, and within the limits of, the express provisions of the Plan and the overall supervision of the Board: (1) To construe and interpret the Plan and to establish, amend, and revoke the Rules. The Administrator, in the exercise of this power, shall generally determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise and may correct any defect, omission, or inconsistency in the Plan or the Rules in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective. (2) To prescribe the terms and provisions of participation by eligible employees which shall be identical for all employees of each Participating Subsidiary but may vary among Participating Subsidiaries to the extent deemed necessary or desirable by the Administrator; provided, however, that in no event shall such variation materially alter the economic substance of the Plan with respect to the Company or participants. (3) To designate from time to time which subsidiaries shall become Participating Subsidiaries. 2 3 (4) To provide for Common Stock to be sold through the Participating Subsidiaries to participants, if the Administrator in its discretion so elects. (5) To retain a brokerage firm, bank or other financial institution to act as trustee, depositary, pledgeholder, escrowholder, or in such other capacity as specified by the Administrator to assist in the purchase and sale of shares, delivery of reports, holding or delivery of funds or share certificates or other administrative aspects of the Plan, and to make such provision for currency translation as the Administrator deems appropriate. (6) To establish a mechanism to enable the participants to purchase shares with U.S. dollars should exchange control regulations, or any other law or regulation be enacted which in any way limits or restricts the purchase of Common Stock by participants through limitations on transfer of funds into or out of the country in which the Participating Subsidiaries are located. (7) To specify the method of designation of funds to be applied to the purchase of shares which may include, without limitation, payroll withholding, payment in full in cash upon purchase, loans from the Company or Participating Subsidiary with appropriate escrow and repurchase agreements, or any other arrangement not inconsistent with the Plan which the Administrator in its discretion may approve. (8) To exercise such powers and to perform such acts as are deemed generally necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company or any Participating Subsidiary, and to enable the general purpose of the Plan, as expressed in Section 1, to be accomplished. 3. Shares Subject to Plan (a) Number of Shares. The Company has reserved for sale under the Plan 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, less any shares sold under either the 1984 Plan, the Amended and Restated Raychem Limited Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or the Plan. Shares sold under the Plan may be newly issued shares or shares reacquired in 3 4 private transactions or open market purchases, but all shares sold under the Plan regardless of source shall be counted against the 15,000,000 share limitation. (b) Adjustments. In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation, offering of rights or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, the Administrator may make such adjustment, if any, as it deems appropriate in the number, kind and purchase price of the shares available for purchase under the Plan and in the maximum number of shares subject to any grant under the Plan. 4. Eligibility Requirements Each employee of a Participating Subsidiary, except those described in the next paragraph, shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. Participation in the Plan is entirely voluntary. The following employees are not eligible to participate in the Plan: (a) employees who would, immediately upon enrollment in the Plan, own directly or indirectly, or hold options or rights to acquire, an aggregate of 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all outstanding shares of all classes of the Company or any Subsidiary; (b) employees who are customarily employed for less than five months in any calendar year or less than 15 hours per week; and (c) employees who are prohibited by the laws of the nation of their residence or employment from participating in the Plan. "Employee" shall mean any individual who performs services for a Participating Subsidiary and is deemed to be an employee under the laws of the country in which such Subsidiary is located. "Subsidiary" shall mean any company whose financial statements are consolidated with those of the Company. 4 5 5. Participation (a) Enrollment. Any eligible employee may enroll or re-enroll in the Plan as of such specific trading days as are established from time to time ("Enrollment Dates"). The Administrator may require eligible employees to complete, sign and submit to the Company an enrollment form in order to enroll or re-enroll in the Plan and may establish deadlines prior to the Enrollment Dates by which such enrollment forms must be received so as to effect enrollment on such Enrollment Date. Enrollment or re-enrollment by a participant in the Plan on an Enrollment Date will constitute the one or more grants by the Company to the participant of the right to apply funds to the purchase of shares of Common Stock from the Company under the Plan, in accordance with Section 6. (b) Special Rule. A participant in the 1984 Plan ("1984 Plan Participant") whose employment is transferred without material interruption to a Participating Subsidiary may (if such transfer terminates his or her participation in the 1984 Plan) enroll in the Plan within ten business days following the beginning of his or her employment by the Participating Subsidiary. Unless otherwise elected by the 1984 Plan Participant or determined by the Administrator at the time of such enrollment, the Grant Date of the 1984 Plan Participant for purposes of the Plan for such enrollment will be considered to be the 1984 Plan Participant's most recent date of enrollment in the 1984 Plan, and the percentage of compensation being withheld under the 1984 Plan shall be the percentage used to determine the 1984 Plan Participant's Designed Funds pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Plan. 6. Purchase (a) Designated Funds. Each participant may elect to purchase shares with designated funds in an amount equal to any whole percentage, up to 15 percent (or such other maximum percentage as the Board may specify for the Plan and the 1984 Plan), of such participant's base pay (the "Designated Funds"). (b) Grant of Right to Apply Designated Funds. Enrollment or re-enrollment by a participant in the Plan on an Enrollment 5 6 Date will constitute the grant by the Company to the participant of the right to apply Designated Funds to the purchase of shares of Common Stock from the Company under the Plan. The number of grants granted on any such Enrollment Date will be equal to the number of percentage points of Designated Funds specified by the participant. Any date on which a participant is granted the right to apply Designated Funds to the purchase of shares of Common Stock under the Plan is referred to as a "Grant Date." (c) Terms and Conditions of Rights to Apply Designated Funds. For each grant made under the Plan the Administrator must set forth in the Rules the following terms (and, in its discretion, may set forth in the Rules any additional terms of grant not inconsistent with the terms below): (1) except as otherwise provided in Section 6(d), the expiration date of the grant shall be the earlier to occur of (A) the completion of the purchase of shares within 12 months of the applicable Grant Date, (or such shorter period as the Board may establish) or (B) the date on which participation of such participant in the Plan terminates for any reason; (2) the per share price which shall be paid in U.S. dollars and shall be 85% of the lower of: (A) the closing price of Common Stock reported by the New York Stock Exchange on the applicable Grant Date; or (B) the closing price of Common Stock reported by the New York Stock Exchange on the Delivery Date; and (3) unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the number of shares available for purchase under each grant shall be determined by dividing $3333-1/3 by the fair market value of a share of Common Stock determined at the Grant Date of such grant for each 1% of Designated Funds; (4) notwithstanding clause (3), the grant (taken together with all other grants then outstanding under this Plan and under all other similar stock purchase plans of the Company or any subsidiary) will in no event give the 6 7 participant the right to purchase shares at a rate which accrues in excess of U.S. $25,000 of fair market value of such shares determined at the applicable Grant Dates in any calendar year during which such participant is enrolled in the Plan at any time. (d) Delivery Dates. On such specific trading days as may be established by the Administrator from time to time prior to an Enrollment Date for all enrollments or re-enrollments made on such Enrollment Date ("Delivery Dates"), the Company shall apply the equivalent in U.S. dollars of the Designated Funds of each participant to whole and fractional shares of Common Stock. 7. Withdrawal from the Plan A participant may withdraw from the Plan in full (but not in part) at any time. All Designated Funds not applied or to be applied to the purchase of shares under the Plan by such participant shall be distributed to such participant without interest as soon as administratively feasible after notice of withdrawal is received by the Company. Any eligible employee who has withdrawn from the Plan may enroll in the Plan again on any subsequent Enrollment Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 5. 8. Termination of Employment (a) Except as provided in Section 8(b) below, participation in the Plan ceases immediately when the employment of a participant by a Participating Subsidiary terminates (such that after employment termination such participant is not employed by any Participating Subsidiary) for any reason whatsoever, including death or disability, or when such participant otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan. As soon as administratively feasible after termination, the Company shall pay to the participant or his or her beneficiary or legal representative all Designated Funds of such participant not applied or to be applied to the purchase of shares under the Plan. (b) Following transfer of a participant's employment without material interruption from a Participating Subsidiary to the Company or any subsidiary that is a participant in the 1984 7 8 Plan, any outstanding grant to the participant under the Plan shall not terminate until the last occurrence of the earliest of: (i) the end of the last Delivery Date included in the term of the grant, (ii) enrollment of the participant in the 1984 Plan, (iii) any event or change of condition or status (other than the transfer described in this Section 8(b)) that would have caused the grant to terminate if the transfer of employment described in this Section 8(b) had not occurred. While a grant remains outstanding pursuant to this Section 8(b), the Company or other subsidiary to which the participant is transferred shall effect payroll withholdings pursuant to the grant and shall remit them to the Participating Subsidiary that employed the Participant at the time of the transfer; such withholdings shall be treated by the Participating Subsidiary as Designated Funds of the participant at the time withheld by the Company or other subsidiary. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6 relating to the designation and application of Designated Funds, following approval by the Company and the Participating Subsidiary, the participant may, in lieu of payroll withholding, pay a corresponding amount to the Participating Subsidiary if such amount is received on or before the relevant Delivery Date. 9. Leave of Absence Unless a participant has voluntarily withdrawn from the Plan, Designated Funds will be applied to the purchase of shares on the Delivery Date next following commencement of a leave of absence by such participant. Participation in the Plan will terminate immediately after the application of funds on such Delivery Date, however, unless: (a) the leave of absence is of less than 90 days duration and is due to illness, injury or other reason approved by the Administrator; or (b) the participant's right to reemployment after such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. 10. Costs All costs and expenses incurred in administering the Plan shall be paid by the Participating Subsidiary, except that any stamp duties or transfer taxes applicable to participation in the 8 9 Plan may be charged to the account of such participant. Any brokerage fees for the purchase of shares by a participant shall be paid by the Company, but brokerage and/or bank fees for the resale of shares by a participant shall be borne by the participant. 11. Reports The Company shall provide or cause to be provided to each participant a report of his or her Designated Funds and the application of such Designated Funds on each Delivery Date. 12. Modification and Termination (a) Modification. The Board may amend, alter or terminate the Plan at any time. No amendment shall be effective unless within one year after it is adopted by the Board it is approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company's outstanding shares, if such amendment would: (i) increase the number of shares reserved for purchase under the Plan; (ii) materially increase the benefits to participants; or (iii) materially modify the requirements for participation. (b) Termination. The Board may elect to terminate any or all outstanding options at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, the Board may also elect to either terminate outstanding grants upon completion of the application of Designated Funds on the next Delivery Date, or to permit grants to expire in accordance with their terms (and participation to continue through such expiration dates). If the grants are terminated prior to expiration, all Designated Funds that have not been and will not be applied to the purchase of shares shall be returned to the participants as soon as administratively feasible. If at any time the shares available under the Plan are overenrolled, enrollments shall be reduced proportionately to 9 10 eliminate the overenrollment. Any Designated Funds that cannot be applied to the purchase of shares due to overenrollment shall be refunded to participants as soon as administratively feasible. 13. Effective Date; Approvals (a) Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective with respect to each Participating Subsidiary on the date specified by the Administrator for such Participating Subsidiary. (b) Approvals. This Plan was approved by the Board of Directors on August 9, 1985 and by the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company on October 14, 1985. Amendments to this Plan were approved by the Board of Directors on August 8, 1986, August 3, 1990, August 2, 1991, May 8, 1992, August 20, 1993, August 12, 1994 and June 7, 1995 and by the stockholders of the Company on November 11, 1986, October 31, 1990, October 30, 1991, October 28, 1992, October 27, 1993, November 9, 1994 and November 1, 1995. 10
