8. Stock Options
The Company has two Stock Option Plans and four Stock
Incentive Plans. No further grants may be made under the two
Stock Option Plans. Under the four Stock Incentive Plans, options
to purchase a maximum of 229,000,000 shares may be granted at
prices not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's
common stock on the date the option is granted. At December 31,
2000, 46,242,457 shares were available for future grants under the
Stock Incentive Plans.
The plans provide for the granting of incentive stock options as
defined under the Internal Revenue Code. Under the plans, grants
may be made to selected officers and employees of non-qualified
stock options with a 10-year term or incentive stock options with a
term not exceeding 10 years. The plans also provide for the granting
of stock appreciation rights (SAR), which entitle the holder to receive
shares of the Company's common stock or cash equal to the excess of
the market price of the common stock over the exercise price when
exercised. At December 31, 2000, there were no outstanding SARs.
Each Stock Incentive Plan allows for, among other things, the
issuance of up to 8,000,000 shares (32,000,000 shares in the aggregate
for all Stock Incentive Plans) as restricted stock awards. Restricted
stock awards representing 148,900, 148,850 and 68,400 units were
granted in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, under the plans to certain
key executives. These units generally are converted to shares of
restricted stock based on the achievement of certain performance
criteria related to performance years 1998 through 2004.
Under the 1999 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors,
a maximum of 250,000 shares may be granted to non-employee
directors at 100% of the fair market value of the Company's common
stock on the date of the grant. During each of 2000 and 1999, 21,000
stock options were granted to non-employee directors, and 208,000
shares were available for future grants at December 31, 2000.
Under the 1994 Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee
Directors, a maximum of 100,000 restricted shares may be granted
to non-employee directors. The restricted shares granted to each
non-employee director are not delivered prior to the end of a five-year
restricted period. At December 31, 2000, 66,400 shares were
available for future grants.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method. Accordingly, no compensation expense has
been recognized for stock options. If compensation expense for the
Company's stock options issued in 2000, 1999 and 1998 had been
determined based on the fair value method of accounting, the Company's
net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have
been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

equivalents, as the effect would have been antidilutive.

The fair value of issued stock options is estimated on the date of
grant using a variant of the Black-Scholes option pricing model
incorporating the following assumptions for stock options granted in
2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively: expected volatility (the amount by
which the stock price is expected to fluctuate) of 31.2%, 25.0% and
24.2%; expected dividend yield of 1.6%, 2.2% and 2.8%; risk-free
interest rate of 6.3%, 5.6% and 5.6%; and expected life of five, four
and four years. The weighted average fair value of stock options
granted during 2000, 1999 and 1998 was $18.76, $14.36 and $10.03
per option share, respectively.
