Item 1.  Business

                                     GENERAL

         Raytheon Company ("Raytheon" or the "Company") is a global technology
leader, with worldwide 1998 sales of more than $19.5 billion. The Company
provides products and services in the areas of defense and commercial
electronics, engineering and construction, and business and special mission
aircraft. Raytheon has operations throughout the United States and serves
customers in more than 80 countries around the world.

         The Company, formerly known as HE Holdings, Inc. ("HE Holdings"), is
the surviving company of the December 17, 1997 merger (the "Hughes Merger") of
HE Holdings, Inc. and Raytheon Company, a Delaware corporation ("Former
Raytheon"). At the effective time of the Hughes Merger, the separate legal
existence of Former Raytheon ceased and HE Holdings was renamed "Raytheon
Company." Although, from a legal point of view, HE Holdings, Inc. is the
surviving company of the Hughes Merger, the Company's business is largely
conducted in the same manner as and under the senior management of Former
Raytheon. Accordingly, the historical disclosures in this Form 10-K for years
prior to 1998 and any year-to-year comparisons contained herein for years prior
to 1998, unless otherwise specifically noted, relate to the operations of Former
Raytheon, as a predecessor to the Company by merger, and not to HE Holdings,
Inc. as it existed prior to the Hughes Merger.

                                BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Electronics

        Defense Electronics. Simultaneously with the consummation of the Hughes
Merger on December 17, 1997, Raytheon announced the creation of Raytheon Systems
Company ("RSC") to integrate Raytheon's defense electronics businesses. RSC
represents the combination and consolidation of the legacy defense
organizations--the former defense operations of Hughes Electronics Corporation
("Hughes Defense") and the defense assets of Texas Instruments, Inc. ("TI
Defense"), Raytheon E-Systems and Raytheon Electronics Systems. Raytheon's
defense electronics businesses are engaged in the design, manufacture and
service of advanced electronic devices, equipment and systems for both
government and commercial customers. In addition to defense electronics systems,
Raytheon has been successful in the conversion of certain defense electronics
technologies to commercial and non-defense applications such as air traffic
control, environmental monitoring and communications.

         For public reporting purposes, certain operating segments within
Electronics have been aggregated as they exhibit similar long-term financial
performance characteristics and do not meet the quantitative threshold. All
material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. During 1998 the
reportable segments within Electronics included the following: Defense Systems;
Sensors and Electronics Systems; Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft
Integration Systems; and a combined group made up of Command, Control, and
Communications Systems, Training and Services, and Commercial Electronics and
Other.

                                       4

         During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a
reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with
customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. The Intelligence,
Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems segment, with the exception of its
Aircraft Integration Systems division was merged with Command, Control, and
Communications Systems to create Command, Control, Communication, and
Information Systems. The Aircraft systems division was established as a separate
segment called Aircraft Integration Systems. The impact of this organizational
change is reflected in the descriptions below, and will be incorporated into the
Company's 1999 financial statements.

         Defense Systems. The Defense Systems segment ("DSS") focuses on
anti-ballistic missile systems; air defense; air-to-air, surface-to-air, and
air-to-surface missiles; naval and maritime systems; ship self-defense systems;
torpedoes; strike, interdiction and cruise missiles; and advanced munitions.

         DSS produces the Patriot ground-based air defense missile system, which
is capable of tracking and intercepting enemy aircraft, cruise missiles, and
tactical ballistic missiles. In addition to the U.S., eight nations have
selected Patriot as an integral part of their air defense systems. Since the end
of the Gulf War in 1991, Raytheon has received over $3 billion in international
orders for Patriot equipment and services. In addition, DSS leads Raytheon's
efforts as the prime contractor for the Hawk ground-launched missile, which is
in service with 18 allied nations in addition to the U.S.

         DSS develops ground-based phased-array radars, including the X-Band
Radar (XBR) and Upgrade Early Warning Radar (UEWR) for National Missile Defense,
as well as the Ground-Based Radar (GBR) for the Theater High Altitude Area
Defense (THAAD) system, part of the U.S. Army's Theater Missile Defense Program.
It also is developing next generation theater missile interceptors for the Navy
Area Defense (NAD) and Navy Theater Wide (NTW) systems and the Exoatmospheric
Kill Vehicle (EKV) for National Missile Defense.

         DSS manufactures the primary air-to-air missile for the U.S. Air Force
and Navy fighter aircraft - the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile
(AMRAAM), and is developing the AIM-9X (short-range missile). Other missiles
produced by DSS include Tomahawk, TOW, Stinger, Maverick, and Standard.

         DSS also leads Raytheon's efforts as the prime contractor for the NATO
Sea-Sparrow Surface to Air Missile System (NSSMS), DSS also produces the air-
and surface-launched versions of the Sparrow missile for both the U.S. and
foreign Navies. DSS also produces Phalanx and the Rolling Airframe Missile
(RAM), which the U.S. and foreign Navies use as part of the ship self-defense
system. DSS also develops sonars, combat control systems, minehunting equipment
and torpedoes for submarines and ships in U.S. and allied fleets, in addition to
designing unmanned underwater vehicles and laser sensors. DSS produces a variety
of shipboard radar systems. DSS also leads Raytheon's development efforts on the
U.S. Navy's next generation of surface combatant ships, the DD-21.

                                       5

         DSS strike weapons programs include the High Speed Anti-Radiation
Missile (HARM), Paveway laser-guided bombs, Extended Range Guided Munitions
(ERGM), XM-982, Joint Stand Off Weapon (JSOW), and Javelin. Also, Raytheon
through DSS is the prime contractor for the U.S. Army's Enhanced Fiber Optic
Guided Missile (EFOGM) demonstration program, which is intended to provide
rapidly deployable, lethal and highly survivable technologies to the U.S. early
entry forces.

         Sensors and Electronic Systems. The Sensors and Electronic Systems
segment ("SES") specializes in radar, electronic warfare, infrared, laser, and
GPS technologies. Its programs focus on land, naval, airborne and spaceborne
systems used for surveillance, reconaissance, targeting, navigation, commercial
and scientific applications.

         SES airborne radars are deployed on four operational tactical fighter
aircraft operated by U.S. forces (the F-14, F-15, F/A-18, and the AV-8B) and
international customers, as well as radars for the AC-130U gunship and the B-2
stealth bomber. SES is also part of a joint venture with Northrop Grumman
Corporation providing the next generation airborne radar for the F-22 aircraft.
The segment provides the Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) and designation system
for the F-117 Stealth Fighter, the infrared subsystem for the F/A-18 targeting
pod, and is developing the Advanced Targeting FLIR for the F/A-18.

         SES supplies integrated sensor suites for applications such as the U.S.
Department of Defense's ("DoD") Global Hawk Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
Reconnaissance System, which includes a synthetic aperture radar and
electro-optical/infrared sensors. SES surveillance and reconnaissance systems
are used on a variety of aircraft, such as the British Tornado, the U.S. Air
Force U-2 and the U.S. Navy P-3 Orion. SES also provides space sensors for
defense and scientific applications.

         SES night vision and fire control systems equip combat vehicles like
the M1 Abrams tank, Bradley Fighting Vehicle and a host of light armored
vehicles, ships and submarines, and aircraft. The segment also puts state of the
art technology in the hands of the infantry. Its sensor and electronic systems
are used for law enforcement, security, oil spill response, search and rescue
and many other commercial and industrial applications. One anticipated
commercial night vision application is a night driving safety option on the
model year 2000 Cadillac(R) DeVille(R)(1).

(1)  Cadillac & DeVille are registered trademarks of General Motors Corporation.

         The segment's surface radar products include radars for
intelligence/data collection, spacetrack, deep space surveillance, missile
warning and imaging and command and control radars. Tactical radars include
battlefield radars for Forward Area Air Defense Systems and hostile weapons
locating radars.

         Command, Control, Communications and Information Systems. The Command,
Control, Communications and Information Systems segment ("C3I") is involved in
command, control and communication systems; air traffic control systems;
tactical radios; satellite communication ground control terminals; wide area
surveillance systems; advanced transportation systems; simulators and simulation
systems; ground-based information processing systems; large scale information
retrieval, processing and distribution systems; and global broadcast systems.

                                       6

         C3I is part of a team under contract to design, develop, integrate and
test the command, control, communications and intelligence sonar, combat control
and architecture subsystems for the U.S. Navy's next generation attack submarine
- - the New Attack Submarine or NSSN. The segment builds military communications
systems and also a family of Extended Environment (E(2)) COTS computers and
workstations.

         An example of C3I's capabilities in the area of advanced information
integration is the U.S. Navy's Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC) program.
CEC provides the capability to integrate theater sensors and weapon systems
ships, aircraft and land-based installations into an integrated air picture. The
system has now successfully completed more than seven years of comprehensive
at-sea testing, including several live fire tests, and is now facing the
challenges of integration into the fleet. C3I also has capabilities in
large-scale image processing and advanced signal processing.

         C3I lead Raytheon's role as the prime contractor for the Brazilian
System for the Vigilance of the Amazon (SIVAM) program, which calls for the
delivery of an integrated information network linking numerous sensors to
regional and national coordination centers. Information will be used to protect
the environment, improve air safety and weather forecasts, help control
epidemics, manage land occupation and usage and ensure effective law enforcement
and border control.

         C3I also designs and installs air traffic control (ATC) and weather
systems at airports worldwide. One example is the FAA/DoD's Standard Terminal
Automation Replacement System (STARS) program, which will modernize and upgrade
approximately 370 air traffic control sites across the United States. Some of
the countries Raytheon is providing ATC systems and radars for include:
Australia, Canada, China, Cyprus, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Jamaica, The
Netherlands, Norway, Oman, Switzerland and Taiwan. Raytheon's Terminal Doppler
Weather Radar (TDWR) system is being installed at 42 sites across the United
States and Puerto Rico. The new Hong Kong airport is the first international
installation of Raytheon's TDWR system. TDWR uses Doppler radar technology to
warn air traffic controllers of sudden wind shifts, such as microbursts, which
have been blamed for numerous aircraft accidents, particularly during takeoff
and landing.

         Aircraft Integration Systems. The Aircraft Integration Systems segment
("AIS") focuses on integration of airborne surveillance and intelligence
systems; aircraft modifications; and head-of-state aircraft systems.

         AIS specializes in the design and installation of interiors for
executive and VIP/head-of-state aircraft. The segment also performs Special
Operations Forces Support Activity (SOFSA) and is working on the Airborne Early
Warning and Control (AEW&C) program. During 1998, Raytheon (through AIS)
continued the U.S. Air Force's C-141 avionics modernization program which
includes a "glass cockpit," a digital autopilot, an improved, integrated GPS
navigation system, and enhanced situational awareness systems.

                                       7

involve the development and production of new or improved weapons or other types
of electronics systems or major components of such systems. Over its lifetime, a
program may be implemented by the award of many different individual contracts
and subcontracts. The funding of Government programs is subject to congressional
appropriations. Although multi-year contracts may be authorized in connection
with major procurements, Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year
basis even though a program may continue for many years. Consequently, programs
are often only partially funded initially and additional funds are committed
only as Congress makes further appropriations. The Government is required to
adjust equitably a contract price for additions or reductions in scope or other
changes ordered by it.

         Generally, Government contracts are subject to oversight audits by
Government representatives and provisions permitting termination, in whole or in
part, without prior notice at the Government's convenience upon the payment of
compensation only for work done and commitments made at the time of termination.
In the event of termination, the contractor will receive some allowance for
profit on the work performed. The right to terminate for convenience has not had
any significant effect upon Raytheon's business in light of its total Government
business.

         The Company's Government business is performed under both cost
reimbursement and fixed price prime contracts and subcontracts. Cost
reimbursement contracts provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs plus
the payment of a fee. These contracts fall into three basic types: (i) cost plus
fixed fee contracts which provide for the payment of a fixed fee irrespective of
the final cost of performance; (ii) cost plus incentive fee contracts which
provide for increases or decreases in the fee, within specified limits, based
upon actual results as compared to contractual targets relating to such factors
as cost, performance and delivery schedule; and (iii) cost plus award fee
contracts which provide for the payment of an award fee determined in the
discretion of the customer based upon the performance of the contractor against
pre-established criteria. Under cost reimbursement type contracts, Raytheon is
reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee
based on contract progress. Some costs incident to performing contracts have
been made partially or wholly unallowable by statute or regulation. Examples are
charitable contributions, travel costs in excess of government rates and certain
litigation defense costs.

         The Company's fixed price contracts are either firm fixed price
contracts or fixed price incentive contracts. Under firm fixed price contracts,
Raytheon agrees to perform the contract for a fixed price and as a result
benefits from cost savings and carries the burden of cost overruns. Under fixed
price incentive contracts, Raytheon shares with the Government savings accrued
from contracts performed for less than target costs and costs incurred in excess
of targets up to a negotiated ceiling price (which is higher than the target
cost) and carries the entire burden of costs exceeding the negotiated ceiling
price. Under such incentive contracts, the Company's profit may also be adjusted
up or down depending upon whether specified performance objectives are met.
Under firm fixed price and fixed price incentive type contracts, the Company
usually receives progress payments monthly from the Government generally in
amounts equaling 75% and 80% of costs incurred under (i) DoD contracts and (ii)
all other Government contracts, respectively. The remaining amount, including
profits or incentive fees, is billed upon delivery and final acceptance of end
items under the contract.

                                       12

         The Company's Government business is subject to specific procurement
regulations and a variety of socio-economic and other requirements. Failure to
comply with such regulations and requirements could lead to suspension or
debarment, for cause, from Government contracting or subcontracting for a period
of time. Among the causes for debarment are violations of various statutes,
including those related to procurement integrity, export control, government
security regulations, employment practices, the protection of the environment,
the accuracy of records and the recording of costs.

         Under many Government contracts, the Company is required to maintain
facility and personnel security clearances complying with DoD requirements.

         Companies which are engaged in supplying defense-related equipment to
the Government are subject to certain business risks some of which are peculiar
to that industry. Among these are: the cost of obtaining trained and skilled
employees; the uncertainty and instability of prices for raw materials and
supplies; the problems associated with advanced designs, which may result in
unforeseen technological difficulties and cost overruns; and the intense
competition and the constant necessity for improvement in facilities and
personnel training. Sales to the Government may be affected by changes in
procurement policies, budget considerations, changing concepts of national
defense, political developments abroad and other factors.

         As a result of the 1985 Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Reduction
Control Act, the federal deficit and changing world order conditions, DoD
budgets have been subject to increasing pressure resulting in an uncertainty as
to the future effects of DoD budget cuts. Raytheon has, nonetheless, maintained
a solid foundation of tactical defense systems which meets the needs of the
United States and its allies, while serving a broad government program base and
wide range of commercial electronics businesses. These factors lead management
to believe that there is high probability of continuation of Raytheon's current
major tactical defense programs.

         See "Item 1. Business -- Sales to the United States Government" for
information regarding the percentage of the Company's revenues generated from
sales to the Government.

                                     BACKLOG

         The Company's backlog of orders at December 31, 1998 was $23.669
billion compared with $21.250 billion at the end of 1997. The 1998 amount
includes funded backlog of $14.622 billion from the Government compared with
$12.547 billion at the end of 1997. During the third quarter of 1998, Raytheon
changed its method of reporting backlog at certain locations in order to provide
a consistent method of reporting across and within Raytheon businesses. The
company includes the full value of contract awards when received, excluding
awards and options expected in future periods. Prior to the change, contract
values, which were awarded, but incrementally funded, were excluded from
reported backlog for some parts of the business. The one-time impact of this
change was a $1.1 billion increase to Electronics backlog and a $0.9 billion
increase to Engineering and Construction backlog, related principally to U.S.
government contracts. Prior periods have not been restated for this change.

                                       13

         Approximately $3.817 billion of the overall backlog figure represents
the unperformed portion of direct orders from foreign governments. Approximately
$2.556 billion of the overall backlog represents non-government foreign backlog.

         Backlog in the Engineering and Construction segment was $3.888 billion
at the end of 1998 compared with $2.900 billion at the end of 1997. Design and
construction contracts in this segment typically take from eighteen months to
several years to perform.

         Aircraft segment backlog was $2.133 billion at the end of 1998 versus
$1.709 billion at the end of 1997. The increase was primarily due to the receipt
of orders for general aviation aircraft including Horizon, Premier I and Hawker
800XP.

         Approximately $9.569 billion of the $23.669 billion 1998 year-end
backlog is not expected to be filled during the following twelve months.

                            RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         During 1998, Raytheon derived net sales of $4.372 billion ($2.115
billion in 1997 and $1.496 billion in 1996) pursuant to Government contracts for
research and development. In addition, during 1998 Raytheon expended $582.1
million on research and development efforts compared with $415.1 million in 1997
and $323.3 million in 1996. These expenditures principally have been for product
development for the Government and for aircraft products.

                                   SUPPLIERS

         Delivery of raw materials and supplies to Raytheon is generally
satisfactory. Raytheon is sometimes dependent, for a variety of reasons, upon
sole-source suppliers for procurement requirements. However, Raytheon has
experienced no significant difficulties in meeting production and delivery
obligations because of delays in delivery or reliance on such suppliers. See
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations on pages 28 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders
for the year ended December 31, 1998 for information regarding the "Year 2000"
issue as it relates to the Company and the Company's suppliers.

                                   COMPETITION

         The military and commercial industries in which Raytheon operates are
highly competitive. Raytheon's competitors range from highly resourceful small
concerns, which engineer and produce specialized items, to large, diversified
firms.

         The Electronics segment is a direct participant in most major areas of
development in the defense, space, information gathering, data reduction and
automation fields. Technical superiority and reputation, price, delivery
schedules, financing and reliability are principal competitive factors
considered by electronics customers. Most of the largest defense contractors in
the United States are competitors in the Electronics segment.

                                       14

         Competition in the Engineering and Construction segment comes from a
number of domestic and foreign firms, competing for major business opportunities
worldwide. Competition is based primarily upon technical superiority, project
experience and price. The ability to arrange or otherwise provide financing to
customers is sometimes significant in attracting or retaining clients within the
engineering and construction industry.

         Competition in the Aircraft segment comes from a number of domestic and
foreign jet, turboprop and piston aircraft manufacturers. Principal elements of
competition in the industry are price, financing, operating costs, reliability,
cabin size and comfort, product quality, range, speed and service support.

                              PATENTS AND LICENSES

         Raytheon has long been an innovative leader in the development of new
products and manufacturing technologies. Raytheon and its subsidiaries own a
large number of United States and foreign patents and patent applications as
well as trademark, copyright and semiconductor chip mask work registrations
which are necessary and contribute significantly to the preservation of the
Company's strong competitive position in the market. In certain instances,
Raytheon has augmented its technology base by licensing the proprietary
intellectual property of others.

         Raytheon's patent position and intellectual property portfolio is
deemed adequate for the conduct of its businesses. It is Raytheon's policy to
enforce its own intellectual property rights and to respect the rights of
others. Incidental to the normal course of business, infringement claims may
arise or may be threatened both by and against Raytheon. In the opinion of
management, these claims will not have a material adverse affect on the
Company's operations.

                                   EMPLOYMENT

         As of December 31, 1998, Raytheon had approximately 108,200 employees
compared with approximately 119,200 employees at the end of 1997. The decrease
is mainly due to layoffs within Raytheon Systems Company and RE&C, divestitures
of Seiscor, BSG/Remco, Commercial Laundry and Raytheon Aircraft Company Montek,
offset by the acquisition of the Communications Division of AlliedSignal, Inc.
See "Part I, Divestitures and Acquisitions." Subsidiaries of Raytheon Engineers
& Constructors International, Inc. and certain other subsidiaries have craft
employees engaged for individual projects not included in Raytheon's employee
count.

         Raytheon considers its union-management relationships to be
satisfactory. Raytheon has, for the most part, successfully negotiated labor
agreements without significant work stoppages, with the exception of a nine week
strike that occurred during the summer of 1996 at the Cedarapids, Inc. facility
located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Raytheon currently has collective bargaining
relationships with 13 different labor organizations involving 39 separate labor
agreements.

                                       15

                              INTERNATIONAL SALES

         Of total sales, Raytheon's sales to customers outside the United States
(including foreign military sales) were 26%, 29% and 28% in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. These sales were principally in the fields of air defense systems,
air traffic control systems, sonar systems, aircraft products, petrochemical,
power and industrial plant design and construction, electronic equipment,
computer software and systems, personnel training, equipment maintenance and
microwave communication. Although international sales as a percentage of
Raytheon's total sales decreased slightly from 1997 to 1998 (primarily due to
the merger of Hughes Defense and acquisition of TI Defense), it is anticipated
that, consistent with the Company's goals, such percentage of international
sales will increase. Foreign subsidiary working capital requirements generally
are financed in the countries concerned. Sales and income from international
operations are subject to changes in currency values, domestic and foreign
government policies (including requirements to expend a portion of program funds
in-country) and regulations, embargoes and international hostilities. Exchange
restrictions imposed by various countries could restrict the transfer of funds
between countries and between Raytheon and its subsidiaries. Raytheon generally
has been able to protect itself against most undue risks through insurance,
foreign exchange contracts, contract provisions, government guarantees or
progress payments.

         Raytheon utilizes the services of sales representatives and
distributors in connection with foreign sales. Normally representatives are paid
commissions and distributors are granted resale discounts in return for services
rendered.

         Licenses are required from Government agencies under the Export
Administration Act, the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917 and the Arms Export
Control Act of 1976 (formerly the Foreign Military Sales Act) for export from
the United States of many of Raytheon's products. In the case of certain sales
of defense equipment and services to foreign governments, the Government's
Executive Branch must notify Congress at least 15 to 30 days (depending on the
location of the sale) prior to authorizing such sales. During that time,
Congress may take action to block the proposed sale.

                                       17

         Aircraft Segment. In the aircraft segment, important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially include, in addition to those noted
above, (i) market perceptions of and government regulations affecting regional
aircraft, (ii) government legislation affecting aviation, such as user fees,
(iii) price pressures within the market, (iv) the ability to meet scheduled
timetables for the introduction of new products, (v) delays in U.S. Government
export approvals and (v) third party financing availability.

         Consolidation and Reorganization of Raytheon Systems Company. The
Company continues its consolidation and reorganization of Raytheon Systems
Company. However, the Company may encounter difficulties or may not realize the
full benefits expected from such integration. The success of Raytheon Systems
Company will require, among other things, the continued execution of the
consolidation and reorganization planned. The challenges include the integration
of numerous geographically separated manufacturing facilities and research and
development centers. The success of this plan will be significantly influenced
by the Company's ability to retain key employees, to integrate differing
management structures and to realize anticipated cost synergies, all of which
will require significant management time and resources. Any material delays or
unexpected costs incurred in connection with such integration could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results or
financial condition and there can be no assurance that additional restructuring
actions will not be required.

         Year 2000 Data Conversion. While the Company expects to resolve all
Year 2000 risks without material adverse impact on results of operations,
liquidity, or financial condition, important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially include (i) the Company's ability to detect all
Year 2000 problems, (ii) the Company's ability to achieve successful and timely
resolution of all Year 2000 issues, and (iii) the preparedness of the Company's
critical suppliers to avoid Year 2000 related service and delivery
interruptions.

         See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations on pages 28 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to
Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1998 for information regarding the
Company's efforts with respect to Year 2000 issues and status thereof.

Item 2.  Properties

         The Company and its subsidiaries operate in a number of plants,
laboratories, warehouses and office facilities in the United States and abroad.

         At December 31, 1998, the Company utilized approximately 53 million
square feet of floor space for manufacturing, engineering, research,
administration, sales and warehousing, approximately 95% of which was located in
the United States. Of such total, approximately 40% was owned, approximately 55%
was leased, and approximately 5% was made available under facilities contracts
for use in the performance of United States Government contracts. At December
31, 1998 the Company had approximately 3.3 million square feet of additional
floor space that was not in use, including approximately 2 million square feet
in Company-owned facilities.

                                       18

         There are no major encumbrances on any of the Company's plants or
equipment other than financing arrangements which in the aggregate are not
material. In the opinion of management, the Company's properties have been well
maintained, are in sound operating condition and contain all equipment and
facilities necessary to operate at present levels.

         A summary of the utilized floor space at December 31, 1998, by 
business segment, follows:

environmental protection requirements and the resolution of environmental claims
against the Company and its operations.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

         Prior to the Hughes Merger, the business of Hughes Defense was
conducted by Hughes Aircraft Company ("HAC"), an indirect subsidiary of Hughes
Electronics Corporation. Since 1985, several actions seeking compensatory and
punitive damages in unspecified amounts have been filed against HAC by
plaintiffs alleging that they suffered injuries as a result of the migration of
alleged toxic substances into the Tucson, Arizona, water supply. These
substances were disposed of at a facility owned by the United States Government
which HAC operated and Raytheon now leases under a contract with the U.S. Air
Force.

         In 1991, HAC settled with the approximately 2,000 plaintiffs in one of
these cases, Valenzuela v. Hughes Aircraft Company. HAC's primary and excess
insurance carriers made substantial contributions toward this settlement.
Several of these carriers are seeking reimbursement of the amounts they paid. If
the insurers prevail in the insurance coverage litigation, the Company may
ultimately bear responsibility for a portion of the Valenzuela settlement.

         Several other actions arising out of migration of alleged toxic
substances into the Tucson water supply are still pending, including:

                                       19

1.   Cordova v. Hughes Aircraft Company, et al., which was filed by an estimated
     90,000 member class against HAC, McDonnell Douglas Corporation, General
     Dynamics Corporation and the Tucson Airport Authority as co-defendants. The
     court denied class certification in 1996. Settlement was reached with all
     but 3 claimants in 1998. Such remaining claims were dismissed, the
     dismissal of which are now on appeal.

2.   Yslava v. Hughes Aircraft Company, an action filed by approximately 250
     individual plaintiffs, alleging injury claims (inclusive of loss of
     consortium claims). HAC filed third party claims against McDonnell Douglas
     Corporation, General Dynamics Corporation, the Tucson Airport Authority and
     the City of Tucson.

3.   Lanier v. Hughes Aircraft Company, et al., a class action seeking medical
     monitoring for an estimated class of 50,000 residents from the south side
     of Tucson.

         The Company is vigorously defending these actions, and believes both
that it has strong defenses to the claims asserted against it and that it has
claims for contribution against other entities. In addition, the Company has
obtained state and federal court decisions requiring its insurers to pay defense
costs in these actions. Although the Company believes that it has good bases for
seeking indemnity coverage from its carriers, it cannot reasonably estimate
what, if any, coverage may, in fact, be available.

         The Company is also involved in various stages of investigation and
cleanup relative to remediation of various other sites. All appropriate costs
incurred in connection therewith have been accrued. Due to the complexity of
environmental laws and regulations, the varying costs and effectiveness of
alternative cleanup methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance
coverage and the unresolved extent of the Company's responsibility, it is
difficult to determine the ultimate outcome of these matters. However, in the
opinion of management, any liability will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations after giving
effect to provisions already recorded.

         Accidents involving personal injuries and property damage occur in
general aviation travel. When permitted by appropriate government agencies,
Raytheon Aircraft investigates accidents related to its products involving
fatalities or serious injuries. Through a relationship with FlightSafety
International, Raytheon Aircraft provides initial and recurrent pilot and
maintenance training services to reduce the frequency of accidents involving its
products.

         Raytheon Aircraft is a defendant in a number of product liability
lawsuits which allege personal injury and property damage and seek substantial
recoveries including, in some cases, punitive and exemplary damages. Raytheon
Aircraft maintains partial insurance coverage against such claims and maintains
a level of uninsured risk determined by management to be prudent. (See Note J to
Raytheon's Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996.)

                                       20

         The insurance policies for product liability coverage held by Raytheon
Aircraft do not exclude punitive damages, and it is the position of Raytheon
Aircraft and its counsel that punitive damage claims are therefore covered.
Historically, the defense of punitive damage claims has been undertaken and paid
by insurance carriers. Under the law of some states, however, insurers are not
required to respond to judgments for punitive damages. Nevertheless, to date no
judgments for punitive damages have been sustained.

         Defense contractors are subject to many levels of audit and
investigation. Agencies which oversee contract performance include: the Defense
Contract Audit Agency, the Department of Defense Inspector General, the General
Accounting Office, the Department of Justice and Congressional Committees. The
Department of Justice from time to time has convened grand juries to investigate
possible irregularities by the Company in governmental contracting.

         Various claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal
course of business are pending or threatened against the Company. While the
Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of
management, any liability arising from them will not have a material effect on
the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of operations after
giving effect to provisions already recorded.

purchase from the Seller from time to time during the Revolving Period,
undivided interests in Receivables with an Outstanding Purchase Price at any one
time as to such Purchaser not to exceed the amount of such Purchaser's
Commitment. The Outstanding Purchase Price of all Purchased Receivables
(exclusive of the interests of Dissenting Purchasers) at any one time shall not
exceed the aggregate Commitments then in effect. Each purchase and sale of
Receivables shall, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, take place on the
Closing Date or on any Settlement Date during the Revolving Period. Each
Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of the Purchase Price for the
Receivables being purchased on the Closing Date or such Settlement Date shall

commitment to purchase Receivables hereunder and Collections on the Purchased
Receivables will continue to be applied in respect of the Outstanding Purchase
Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     Purchaser may from time to time be made by the related SPC in its sole
     discretion and nothing herein contained shall constitute a commitment to
     make purchases by such SPC; provided that if any SPC elects not to make a
     purchase, its SPC Bank agrees it will make such purchase pursuant to the
     terms hereof. Any purchase by an SPC shall constitute a utilization of the
     Commitment of the SPC Bank.

(d)  It is expressly agreed that on the Closing Date, immediately following the

     1997 Agreement.

     2.2 Procedures for Making Purchases. The Seller shall give the Managing
Facility Agent irrevocable notice, which notice must be received by the Managing
Facility Agent prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Reporting Date
prior to the Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) on which the
Seller wishes to sell Eligible Receivables hereunder (or, in the case of the

notice of a proposed purchase shall specify the date of purchase (which shall be
the Closing Date or the Settlement Date next succeeding such Reporting Date),
the aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Receivables prior to
such proposed purchase (after giving effect to the application of Collections on
the related Settlement Date), the Principal Balance and the Purchase Price for

                                       43

each Receivable which the Seller proposes to sell on the Closing Date or such
Settlement Date and any other information which the Managing Facility Agent, in
its reasonable discretion, may require prior to the Closing Date or such
Settlement Date. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Seller, the Managing
Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser thereof. Prior to 11:00
a.m., New York City time, on each such Settlement Date on which a purchase has
been requested to be made, each Purchaser shall make available to the Managing
Facility Agent, in immediately available funds at the Managing Facility Agent's
office specified in subsection 11.2, the amount of such Purchaser's pro rata
share of such aggregate Purchase Price for all Receivables being purchased on
such Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds
of such purchase will then be made available (or deemed made available if
subsection 2.15 is applicable) to the Seller by the Managing Facility Agent
crediting the account of the Seller on the books of such office with the
aggregate of the amounts made available to the Managing Facility Agent by the
Purchasers and in like funds as received by the Managing Facility Agent.

     2.3 Special Settlement Dates. On each Special Settlement Date, the Seller
will be permitted to sell Eligible Receivables to the Purchasers. In connection
with any purchase of Eligible Receivables on any Special Settlement Date, the
Seller shall give the Managing Facility Agent irrevocable notice, which notice
must be received by the Managing Facility Agent prior to 10:00 a.m., New York
City time on the day which is one Business Day prior to such Special Settlement
Date. Each such notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit H, shall specify
(i) the aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Receivables prior
to such proposed purchase, (ii) the Principal Balance and the Purchase Price for
each Receivable which the Seller proposes to sell on such Special Settlement
Date and (iii) the amount of 90% Repurchase Receivables, 75% Repurchase
Receivables and 25% Repurchase Receivables, respectively, included in the
Receivables which the Seller proposes to sell on such Special Settlement Date.
Upon receipt of any notice from the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent shall
promptly notify each Purchaser thereof. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time,
on such Special Settlement Date, each Purchaser shall make available to the
Managing Facility Agent, in immediately available funds at the Managing Facility
Agent's office specified in Section 11.2, the amount of such Purchaser's pro
rata share of the aggregate Purchase Price for all Receivables being purchased
on such Special Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
proceeds of such purchase will then be made available to the Seller by the
Managing Facility Agent crediting the account of the Seller on the books of such
office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Managing Facility
Agent by the Purchasers and in like funds as received by Managing Facility
Agent.

     2.4 Participated Receivables. (a) In the event that on any Settlement Date
the aggregate Available Commitments are less than the aggregate Purchase Price
of Eligible Receivables the Seller proposes to sell on such Settlement Date, and
so long as no Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, the Purchasers agree,
subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement, to purchase an interest
in each such Receivable, the Purchase Price of which would otherwise exceed the
amount of the Available Commitments, up to the aggregate Available Commitments
then in effect. The Purchase Price for each such Receivable shall be deemed to
be the Principal Balance able to be purchased under the Available Commitments;

                                       44

provided that the Available Commitments shall first be applied to purchase
Receivables other than Participated Receivables to the fullest extent available
and next to purchase Participated Receivables. The portion of each such
Receivable not available to be purchased by the Purchasers shall be an interest
of the Seller in such Receivable and shall represent the Seller's Interest in
such Participated Receivable. The Seller's Interest in each Participated
Receivable shall be subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in
accordance with the terms and conditions of subsection 2.4(b). The portion of
any Participated Receivable representing the Seller's Interest therein shall be,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, available as a Receivable
for purchase by the Purchasers on subsequent Settlement Dates.

(b)  The Seller's Interest in and to each Participated Receivable shall be
     subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the
     rights of the Purchasers with respect to such Participated Receivable,
     including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all
     Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on such Participated
     Receivable. Such subordination shall be in effect until the Principal
     Balance purchased by the Purchasers of the Participated Receivable, after
     application of Principal Collections received on account of such
     Participated Receivable, has been reduced to zero and, accordingly, the
     Seller shall not (except as provided in subsection 2.16(b)) be entitled to
     receive any amounts with respect to a Participated Receivable on account of
     the Seller's Interest therein until such time. If the Seller receives any
     payment on account of the Seller's Interest in any Participated Receivable
     prior to the time at which it is entitled to retain such payment pursuant
     to this subsection 2.4(b), the Seller shall hold such payment in trust for
     the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers and shall immediately
     deposit such payment into the Concentration Account.

     2.5 Extended Term Receivables. (a) The Purchasers agree, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date and any Settlement
Date to purchase Extended Term Receivables, up to each Purchaser's Available
Commitment, for a Purchase Price equal to (a) the actual unpaid Principal
Balance of such Receivable on the last day of the Settlement Period preceding
the date of purchase less (b) the aggregate amount of principal payments
scheduled to be made thereon after the Cash Flow Cutoff Date for such Extended
Term Receivable. The portion of each such Receivable not available to be
purchased by the Purchasers shall be an interest of the Seller in such
Receivable and shall represent the Seller's Interest in such Extended Term
Receivable. The Seller's Interest in each Extended Term Receivable shall be
subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in accordance with the
terms and conditions of subsection 2.5(b). The portion of the actual unpaid
principal balance of any Extended Term Receivable representing the Seller's
Interest therein shall be, subject to the terms and conditions hereof
(including, without limitation, that principal payments scheduled to be made
after the applicable Cash Flow Cutoff Date at any date of determination are not
available for purchase under this Agreement), available for purchase by the
Purchasers on subsequent Settlement Dates.

                                       45

(b)  The Seller's Interest in and to each Extended Term Receivable shall be
     subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the
     rights of the Purchasers with respect to such Extended Term Receivable,
     including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all
     Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on such Extended Term
     Receivable. Such subordination shall be in effect until the Principal
     Balance purchased by the Purchasers of the Extended Term Receivable, after
     application of Principal Collections received on account of such Extended
     Term Receivable, has been reduced to zero and, accordingly, the Seller
     shall not be entitled to receive any amounts with respect to a Extended
     Term Receivable on account of the Seller's Interest therein until such
     time. If the Seller receives any payment on account of the Seller's
     Interest in any Extended Term Receivable prior to the time at which it is
     entitled to retain such payment pursuant to this subsection 2.5(b), the
     Seller shall hold such payment in trust for the Managing Facility Agent and
     the Purchasers and shall immediately deposit such payment into the
     Concentration Account.

     2.6 Certain Actions Following a Rating Event and a Discount Event. (a) If a
Rating Event shall occur, then no later than the 10th Business Day following
such occurrence (provided such Rating Event shall then be continuing) the Seller
shall deposit cash into the Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the
Repurchase Percentage times the aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price (as of the
Settlement Date preceding such date of deposit). As long as any Rating Event
continues, any amounts deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied
from time to time in accordance with subsection 2.14(c). If such Rating Event
shall cease to continue, the Managing Facility Agent shall, upon written request
of the Seller, withdraw amounts so deposited in the Cash Collateral Account and
deliver such amounts to the Seller (or upon its order).

(b)  On each Settlement Date after the occurrence and during the continuance of
     a Discount Event or Rating Event, each purchase of Eligible Receivables in
     accordance with the terms and conditions specified in this Agreement shall
     be at a discount as specified in the proviso contained in the definition of
     "Purchase Price" and the portion of such Receivable's Principal Balance
     equal to the sum of the reductions and discounts required pursuant to such
     proviso clause shall be an interest of the Seller in such Receivable and
     shall constitute the Seller's Interest. The Seller's Interest in each
     Purchased Receivable created pursuant to this clause (b) shall be
     subordinated and junior to the rights of the Purchasers in accordance with
     the terms and conditions of subsection 2.6(c). If a Rating Event or
     Discount Event is no longer continuing, the portion of any Receivable
     representing the Seller's Interest created therein pursuant to this clause
     (b) shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be deemed
     to be available as a Receivable for purchase by the Purchasers on
     subsequent Settlement Dates.

(c)  The Seller's Interest in and to each Purchased Receivable a portion of
     which is an interest of the Seller pursuant to subsection 2.6(b) shall be
     subordinate and junior in right of payment and all other rights to the
     rights of the Purchasers with respect to the Purchased Receivables,
     including, but not limited to, the rights of the Purchasers to receive all
     Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections on the Purchased
     Receivables until the Outstanding Purchase Price has been reduced to zero

     under any Purchase Document have been paid in full and, accordingly, the
     Seller shall not (except as provided in subsection 2.16(b)) be entitled to
     receive any amounts on account of the Seller's Interest in such Purchased
     Receivables until the Outstanding Purchase Price has been reduced to zero
     and all other amounts owing to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser
     under any Purchase Document have been paid in full.

     amount equal to 10% of the Outstanding Purchase Price on such Settlement
     Date, provided, that (x) if no Amortization Event has occurred and is
     continuing, the Seller may request that the 10% concentration limit with
     respect to any Obligor be waived and such waiver may be granted with the
     unanimous written consent of the Purchasers; and (y) if on any Settlement
     Date, Raytheon's Debt Rating is at either of the levels set forth below
     then the 10% concentration limit is hereby waived with respect to Great
     Lakes and Mesa and the concentration percentages for each set forth

     during such times as Raytheon's Debt Rating is equal to the levels set
     forth below, the corresponding percentage of the Outstanding Purchase Price
     on such Settlement Date:

                                               Concentration
                  Raytheon Debt Rating        Percentage Limit

     jurisdiction would exceed an amount equal to 5% or, in the case of Brazil,
     10% of the Outstanding Purchase Price on such Settlement Date. For purposes
     of this clause (ix), the Obligor under an Affiliate Receivable shall be
     deemed to be the Unaffiliated Foreign Lessee thereunder;

                                       48

     such Settlement Date;

     Receivables the Obligor of which is a Governmental Authority would exceed
     an amount equal to 2% of the Outstanding Purchase Price on such Settlement
     Date;

(xiii) the aggregate outstanding Principal Balances of all Extended Term
     Receivables would exceed an amount equal to 50% of the Outstanding Purchase
     Price on such Settlement Date;

(xiv) the aggregate outstanding Principal Balances of all Purchased Receivables
     with respect to Aircraft manufactured by any Person other than RAC would
     exceed an amount equal to 2% of the Outstanding Purchase Price on such
     Settlement Date;

(xv) the aggregate outstanding Principal Balances of all Purchased Receivables
     which are Lease Receivables which are carried on the books of Raytheon

     Purchase Price on such Settlement Date; or

(xvi) the aggregate outstanding Principal Balances of all Purchased Receivables
     with respect to which the FAA Assignment for the Financed Aircraft related
     thereto (if required pursuant to subsection 5.2(e) hereof) is without a
     conveyance number from the FAA on the Applicable Settlement Date would
     exceed an amount equal to 25% of the Outstanding Purchase Price on such
     Settlement Date; provided that, if Raytheon's Debt Rating is below BBB or
     Baa2, then such limit shall be reduced to 0%; or

     Receivables on any Settlement Date would exceed an amount equal to 5% of
     the Outstanding Purchase Price on such Settlement Date.

(b)  If any such sale or substitution on any Settlement Date shall cause a
     breach of any of the limitations specified in subsections 2.7(a)(i) through
     2.7(a)(xvii), the Seller shall, subject to subsection 2.13, repurchase from
     the Purchasers, on the Settlement Date immediately following the date the
     Managing Facility Agent notifies the Seller of such breach, sufficient
     Receivables such that after such repurchase such breach shall have been
     remedied (each Receivable so repurchased, a "Concentration Receivable").
     The Seller shall effect such repurchase by depositing into the
     Concentration Account on such Settlement Date cash in an amount equal to
     the aggregate Outstanding Balances of the Concentration Receivables plus,
     if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, accrued and
     unpaid interest thereon at the rate under the related Contract except to
     the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection
     2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was
     not paid by the related Obligor. The amount of any such deposit shall be
     applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16.

                                       49

     2.8 Term of Revolving Period. () So long as no Amortization Event has
occurred and is continuing, no more than 60 and no less than 45 days prior to
the applicable Expiration Date, the Seller may request, through the Managing
Facility Agent, that each Purchaser extend the Revolving Period, which decision
will be made by each Purchaser in its sole discretion. Such request by the
Seller shall be accompanied by an amortization schedule of Purchased Receivables
in form and substance satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent and the
Purchasers. Upon receipt of any such request, the Managing Facility Agent shall
promptly notify each Purchaser thereof. At least 30 but not more than 45 days
prior to the applicable Expiration Date, each Purchaser shall notify the
Managing Facility Agent of such Purchaser's willingness to extend the Revolving
Period, and the Managing Facility Agent shall notify the Seller of such
willingness by the Purchasers on such 30th day. The approval of the Managing
Facility Agent and at least the Majority Purchasers (calculated as to Purchasers
which are not Dissenting Purchasers prior to the applicable Expiration Date)
shall be required to extend such Expiration Date.

(b)(i) Any Purchaser not wishing to extend the Revolving Period (a "Dissenting
     Purchaser") may in its sole discretion elect to terminate its Commitment on
     the Expiration Date in effect prior to any such extension of the Revolving
     Period. The Dissenting Purchaser shall give the Managing Facility Agent
     notice of such election at least 30 days prior to the applicable Expiration
     Date, provided that failure to expressly notify the Managing Facility Agent
     of a willingness to extend the Expiration Date in accordance with
     subsection 2.8(a) shall be deemed an election by such Purchaser to
     terminate its Commitment on the Expiration Date. Upon receipt of any notice
     the Managing Facility Agent shall promptly notify each other Purchaser and
     the Seller thereof. The Seller, by notice to the Managing Facility Agent,
     may (but shall not be required to) request one or more other Purchasers, or
     seek another financial institution acceptable to the Managing Facility
     Agent and the Seller, in their reasonable discretion, to acquire the
     Commitment of the Dissenting Purchaser and all amounts payable to it
     hereunder in accordance with subsection 11.6(c). Unless otherwise specified
     in connection with a transfer made pursuant to subsection 11.6(c), a
     Purchaser shall become a Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to this subsection
     2.8(b) on the first day following the Expiration Date on which its
     Commitment is terminated.

(ii) If any Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment is not acquired pursuant to
     subsection 11.6(c), such Dissenting Purchaser shall, on each Settlement
     Date after the Expiration Date on which its Commitment terminates, (A) be
     paid such Dissenting Purchaser's pro rata share of Principal Collections
     received after such Expiration Date solely (except as provided in
     subsection 2.13(c)) on account of Eligible Receivables purchased or
     substituted on or before such Expiration Date (based on such Dissenting
     Purchaser's Commitment Percentage at the time its Commitment terminated)
     (as to such Dissenting Purchaser, its "Frozen Pool"), (B) not purchase any
     additional Receivables after such Expiration Date and (C) be paid interest
     in accordance with subsection 2.17 in respect of its Outstanding Purchase
     Price.

                                       50

(iii) So long as the Revolving Period has not expired or terminated, if on any
     Settlement Date after a Purchaser becomes a Dissenting Purchaser its
     Outstanding Purchase Price is less than 10% (after giving effect to the
     application of Collections on such Settlement Date) of such Dissenting
     Purchaser's maximum Outstanding Purchase Price at any time prior to the
     date such Purchaser became a Dissenting Purchaser, then the Seller may give
     the Managing Facility Agent irrevocable notice, which must be received by
     the Managing Facility Agent by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
     Reporting Date prior to the next succeeding Settlement Date, (A) requesting
     that each other Purchaser purchase a pro rata share (based on such other
     Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage as in effect on such next
     succeeding Settlement Date) of such Dissenting Purchaser's Outstanding
     Purchase Price (the "Buyout Amount") subject to the approval of the
     Managing Facility Agent and the Majority Purchasers or (B) stating that the
     Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller will repurchase all the Dissenting
     Purchaser's interests in and to the Receivables in the Frozen Pool by
     payment of the Buyout Amount on such next succeeding Settlement Date;
     provided that no such purchase by the Purchasers shall be made if the
     Buyout Amount to be paid by such Purchasers exceeds the aggregate Available
     Commitments in effect on such next succeeding Settlement Date (after giving
     effect to purchases from the Seller on such date). Any such purchase of the
     Buyout Amount by the Purchasers shall be subject to, and shall be made upon
     satisfaction of, the conditions set forth in subsection 5.2 and, in
     connection therewith, the Seller shall be deemed to have made the
     representations and warranties set forth in subsection 4.2 with respect to
     the Receivables constituting the Frozen Pool as if such Receivables were
     being sold to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date. Payment for the
     purchase by the Purchasers or the repurchase by the Seller of the Frozen
     Pool, as the case may be, shall be made to the Managing Facility Agent for
     the account of such Dissenting Purchaser on such Settlement Date by deposit
     into the Concentration Account on the Settlement Date required by this
     subsection 2.8(b)(iii).

     2.9 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) On any Settlement Date,
the Seller shall have the right to terminate the Commitments or reduce the
amount thereof by notice to the Managing Facility Agent on the preceding
Reporting Date; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be
permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any distributions on account of
the Outstanding Purchase Price made on such Settlement Date, the then
Outstanding Purchase Price (exclusive of the interests of Dissenting Purchasers)
would exceed the Commitments then in effect. Any such reduction shall be in an
amount equal to $50,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and
shall permanently reduce the Commitments then in effect.

(b)  Each Purchaser's Commitment shall terminate upon the expiration of the
     Revolving Period as to such Purchaser.

     2.10 Defaulted Receivables; Application of Lease Security Deposits. () (i)
On each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Seller agrees
to repurchase from the Purchasers, up to the Repurchase Obligation, all
Receivables which became Defaulted Receivables during each preceding Settlement
Period with respect to which the Seller has not substituted an Eligible
Receivable pursuant to subsection 2.13, as indicated on the Settlement Statement

                                       51

delivered on the related Reporting Date. Subject to subsections 2.10(b), 2.13,
2.15(b) and clause sixth of subsection 2.16(b), the Seller shall repurchase such
Defaulted Receivables by depositing into the Concentration Account on such
Settlement Date cash in an amount equal to the aggregate Outstanding Balances of
the Defaulted Receivables plus, if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and
is continuing, accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the rate under the related
Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant
to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued
and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such
deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and
2.16. If on any Settlement Date the Repurchase Price to be paid by the Seller
for any Defaulted Receivable would cause the Repurchase Obligation then in
effect (determined on such Settlement Date) to be exceeded, the Seller shall be
deemed to acquire only a fractional interest in each Defaulted Receivable
repurchased on such Settlement Date. The numerator of such fraction shall be the
Repurchase Obligation then in effect determined on such Settlement Date and the
denominator thereof shall be the aggregate Repurchase Price for all Defaulted
Receivables on such Settlement Date. Upon any repurchase of a Defaulted
Receivable pursuant to this subsection or the Repurchase Agreement after a
Discount Event or Rating Event, the Seller's Interest shall be reduced by an
amount equal to the Purchase Discount, if any, with respect to such Defaulted
Receivable times the Principal Balance thereof on the last day of the Settlement
Period preceding the Settlement Date on which such repurchase is made. Any
Purchased Receivable related to a Remarketed Aircraft which is repurchased or
substituted for in accordance with subsection 2.11 or 2.13, respectively, shall
not be deemed to be a Defaulted Receivable.

(ii) In the event that a Rating Event occurs and is continuing, any Net
     Recoveries received by the Seller (A) on account of any Defaulted
     Receivable repurchased by it, RAC or the Guarantor or (B) on account of any
     Defaulted Receivable which neither the Seller, RAC nor the Guarantor has
     repurchased, shall be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account. In the
     event that the Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the
     definition of such term, any Net Recoveries received by the Seller after
     such time (A) on account of a Defaulted Receivable repurchased by it, RAC
     or the Guarantor or (B) on account of any Defaulted Receivable which none
     of the Seller, RAC nor the Guarantor has repurchased shall be deposited
     into the Cash Collateral Account. The Seller shall make any deposit
     required to be made by this subsection 2.10(a)(ii) within two Business Days
     after the Seller's receipt of such Net Recoveries and such deposits shall
     be applied in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. The obligation of
     the Seller to deposit such Net Recoveries shall survive the termination of
     this Agreement.

(iii) The Seller agrees that, to the extent it has received a security deposit
     in respect of any Lease Receivable, at the time the Seller applies any or
     all of such security deposit or any or all of such security deposit is
     applied (in each case pursuant to the related Contract or otherwise)
     against the amounts owed in respect of a Receivable, on the next succeeding
     Settlement Date the Seller shall be obligated to pay the Purchasers the
     amount of such application. The Seller shall pay such obligation by
     depositing into the Concentration Account on such Settlement Date cash in
     an amount equal to such application. The amount of any such deposit shall
     be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16.

                                       52

(b)  The maximum repurchase obligation of the Seller with respect to Defaulted
     Receivables (the "Repurchase Obligation") shall be equal at any time to (i)
     the Repurchase Factor in effect on the Settlement Date on which such
     repurchase is to be made minus (ii) the aggregate Repurchase Prices of
     Defaulted Receivables which were repurchased by the Seller pursuant to
     subsection 2.10(a) prior to such time minus (iii) amounts deposited into
     the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to subsection 2.14(c)(ii) plus (iv)
     all Net Recoveries received by the Seller with respect to such Defaulted
     Receivables (or portion thereof) so repurchased by the Seller prior to such
     time and not required to be deposited into the Cash Collateral Account
     pursuant to subsection 2.10(a)(ii).

     2.11 Ineligible Receivables. The Seller agrees to repurchase on each
Settlement Date, and the Purchasers agree to sell to the Seller on such date and
in accordance with the terms hereof, any Purchased Receivable if such Receivable
is (i) an Ineligible Receivable, (ii) an Existing Certified Receivable in
respect of which the Old Administrative Agent shall not have received on or
prior to the Certified Opinion Delivery Date (x) an opinion of foreign counsel
satisfying the requirements of subsection 2.27(c) or (y) evidence of the
filings, if any, referred to in subsection 6.1(n)(i) or (iii) an Existing
Receivable in respect of which the Old Administrative Agent shall not have
received on or prior to the FAA Filing Date evidence of the filings, if any,
referred to in subsection 6.1(n)(ii) provided that, during the Amortization
Period, the Purchasers, by unanimous consent, in their sole discretion may
choose not to sell any Receivable referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) to
the Seller. The Seller shall make such repurchase on the Settlement Date first
succeeding the earlier of (x) the date on which the Seller becomes aware of
facts and circumstances giving rise to such event of ineligibility or (y) the
date on which the Managing Facility Agent notifies the Seller that such event of
ineligibility has occurred and is continuing. Subject to subsections 2.13 and
2.15(b), the Seller shall make such repurchase by depositing in the
Concentration Account cash in an amount equal to the Repurchase Price for such
Ineligible Receivable at the date such deposit is made, except to the extent
(without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18, for the
Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the
Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and
distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. Except as provided in
subsection 9.1, the sole obligation of the Seller with respect to an Ineligible
Receivable of the type described in clause (i) of this subsection 2.11 shall be
the requirement to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable pursuant to this
subsection 2.11 or subsection 2.13, respectively.

     2.12 Rebated Receivables. If on any date the Principal Balance of any
Purchased Receivable is, or is deemed to be, reduced or adjusted or no longer
payable as a result of any rebate, discount, refund or other adjustment of such
Purchased Receivable, or any other reduction or adjustment of any payment under
any Purchased Receivable, other than any such rebate, discount refund or
adjustment permitted under subsection 7.1(b)(iv)(x), the Seller shall be deemed
to have received on such day a Collection in respect of such Purchased
Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment or in the amount no
longer payable (as applicable) and shall, subject to subsection 2.15(b), deposit

                                       53

cash into the Concentration Account on the next succeeding Settlement Date in an
amount equal to such reduction or adjustment or such amount no longer payable
(as applicable) plus if a Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is
continuing, accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the rate under the related
Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant
to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued
and was not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. The amount of any such
deposit shall be applied and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and
2.16.

     2.13 Substitution of Receivables. (a) Whenever the Seller is required to
repurchase Concentration Receivables, Defaulted Receivables, or Ineligible
Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.7(b), 2.10 or 2.11, respectively, the
Seller may, subject to the terms hereof, in lieu of making such repurchase,
substitute one or more Eligible Receivables (each, a "Substituted Receivable")
therefor on the Settlement Date on which the repurchase is required to be made;
provided that the Settlement Statement delivered on the Reporting Date prior to
such Settlement Date shall contain the information required thereby with respect
to such proposed substitution. The option of the Seller to substitute one or
more Substituted Receivables for any Receivables as aforesaid is subject to the
following conditions precedent: (i) no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred
and is then continuing, (ii) if such substitution occurs during the Amortization
Period, and provided that no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is then
continuing, the Majority Purchasers have approved such substitution and (iii)
either the Substituted Receivable has a Final Payment Date which is not after
the Final Payment Date of the replaced Receivable (each, replaced Receivable, a
"Removed Receivable"), or if the Final Payment Date of the Substituted
Receivable is after that of the Removed Receivable, then only that portion of
the Principal Balance of such proposed Substituted Receivable which is scheduled
to be paid on or prior to the Final Payment Date of the Removed Receivable shall
be included as a Substituted Receivable. Defaulted Receivables shall be replaced
with Substituted Receivables prior to replacement of Ineligible Receivables or
Concentration Receivables with Substituted Receivables and, in each case, shall
be replaced with Substituted Receivables in the following order of priority: (i)
first, with Substituted Receivables which are 25% Repurchase Receivables, (ii)
second, with Substituted Receivables which are 75% Repurchase Receivables, and
(iii) third, with Substituted Receivables which are 90% Repurchase Receivables.
The making of such substitution shall be subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in paragraphs subsection 5.2, including, without
limitation, the delivery of an Assignment and, if applicable, an FAA Assignment
or Foreign Assignment.

(b)  If the Repurchase Price of the Removed Receivable proposed to be replaced
     by one or more Substituted Receivables is greater than the aggregate
     Principal Balances of such Substituted Receivables, the Seller shall
     deposit cash into the Concentration Account in an amount equal to such
     excess. Alternatively, if the Repurchase Price of such Removed Receivable
     is less than the aggregate Principal Balances of the corresponding
     Substituted Receivable or Receivables, during the Revolving Period the
     Seller may, so long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is
     continuing, request the Purchasers to purchase such excess, to the extent
     of the Available Commitments, pursuant to subsection 2.2. If such excess is
     not purchased for any reason set forth in this Agreement, then each

                                       54

     Substituted Receivable able to be substituted to the fullest extent shall
     first be substituted and any remaining Substituted Receivable shall be a
     Participated Receivable subject to the provisions of subsection 2.4. During
     the Revolving Period, if any Substituted Receivable is an Extended Term
     Receivable, then such Substituted Receivable shall be subject to subsection
     2.5 and the Cash Flow Cutoff Date for such Substituted Receivable shall be
     deemed to be, initially, (i) so long as no Rating Event has occurred and is
     continuing, thirteen years after the date of substitution of such
     Substituted Receivable and (ii) during the continuance of a Rating Event,
     ten years after the date of substitution of such Substituted Receivable.
     Substitution for a Defaulted Receivable shall not reduce the Repurchase
     Obligation.

(c)  If a Dissenting Purchaser holds an undivided interest in any Removed
     Receivable then:

                  (i) if such Removed Receivable is an Ineligible Receivable or
         a Concentration Receivable, the Seller shall pay to the Managing
         Facility Agent for the account of such Dissenting Purchaser an amount
         equal to the sum of (A) the product of such Dissenting Purchaser's
         Commitment Percentage (determined at the time such Dissenting
         Purchaser's Commitment terminated) times the Outstanding Balance for
         such Removed Receivable and (B) if a Trigger Amortization Event has
         occurred and is continuing, the Dissenting Purchaser's pro rata share
         (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's commitment
         terminated) of accrued and unpaid interest on such Removed Receivable
         at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent (without
         duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the
         Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was not paid
         by the Obligor under such Contract; and

                  (ii) if such Removed Receivable is a Defaulted Receivable, (A)
         and if the aggregate Available Commitments in effect on the Settlement
         Date on which such substitution is to be made exceed an amount equal to
         (x) the Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage (determined at the
         time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) times (y) the
         Outstanding Balance for such Removed Receivable (the "Dissenting
         Purchaser's Share"), each Purchaser other than a Dissenting Purchaser
         shall be deemed to purchase its Commitment Percentage of the Dissenting
         Purchaser's Share by making funds therefor available to the Managing
         Facility Agent for the account of such Dissenting Purchaser on the
         Settlement Date on which such substitution is proposed to be made;
         provided that such purchases shall be subject to the satisfaction of
         the conditions set forth in subsection 5.2 and, in connection
         therewith, the Seller shall be deemed to have made the representations
         and warranties set forth in subsection 4.2 with respect to the
         Purchased Receivables constituting the Dissenting Purchaser's Share as
         if the Seller were selling such Receivables to the Purchasers on such
         Settlement Date; or (B) if for any reason a purchase cannot be made
         pursuant to the foregoing clause (A), the Seller shall repurchase, up
         to the amount of the Repurchase Obligation on the date of such

                                       55

         purchase, such Dissenting Purchaser's Share on such Settlement Date up
         to such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment Percentage (determined at the
         time such Dissenting Purchaser's Commitment terminated) of the
         Aggregate Repurchase Obligation in effect on such Settlement Date (in
         each case after giving effect to purchases, substitutions and
         repurchases on such Settlement Date) plus, if a Trigger Amortization
         Event has occurred and is continuing, the Dissenting Purchaser's pro
         rata share (determined at the time such Dissenting Purchaser's
         Commitment terminated) of accrued and unpaid interest on such Removed
         Receivable at the rate under the related Contract except to the extent
         (without duplication) of any payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18
         for the Settlement Period during which such interest accrued and was
         not paid by the Obligor under such Contract. It is understood that
         determinations of the Repurchase Obligation with respect to a
         Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to this subsection 2.13(c)(ii) shall be,
         with respect to a L/C Receivable, made on the Settlement Date on which
         such determination is made in accordance with the definitions of the
         terms "90% Repurchase Receivable" and "25% Repurchase Receivable" and
         the status of such L/C Receivable at such Settlement Date.

(d)  Any repurchases of Receivables made pursuant to subsection 2.13(c) shall be
     made on the Settlement Date on which the related substitution of
     Receivables is to be made.

(e)  On any Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Seller
     may, with the consent of the Managing Facility Agent, substitute a Lease
     Receivable which is an Eligible Receivable (a "Substituted Lease
     Receivable") for a Lease Receivable (other than a Lease Receivable which is
     a Defaulted Receivable, a Concentration Receivable or an Ineligible
     Receivable) which was previously sold or substituted hereunder (a "Replaced
     Lease Receivable") if the Seller, in the ordinary course of business and in
     accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, is entering into a new
     Contract with the same Person which is the Obligor under the Contract
     related to such Replaced Lease Receivable (or an Affiliate of such Person);
     provided that during the Amortization Period the prior consent of the
     Majority Purchasers shall be required to effect any such substitution;
     provided, further, that if a Remittance Event has occurred and is
     continuing and if the Principal Balance of a Substituted Lease Receivable
     is less than the Principal Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable such
     substitution shall occur only on a Settlement Date and within two Business
     Days after such substitution is made, the Seller shall deposit into the
     Concentration Account an amount equal to the difference between the
     Outstanding Balance of the Replaced Lease Receivable and the Purchase Price
     of the Substituted Lease Receivable. The Settlement Statement with respect
     to the Settlement Period in which such substitution occurs (or the
     Settlement Statement delivered with respect to the Settlement Date on which
     such substitution occurs, in the case of substitutions made on a Settlement
     Date in accordance with the final proviso of the preceding sentence) shall
     contain the information required thereby with respect to such substitution.
     Upon such substitution, the Principal Balance of the Replaced Lease
     Receivable shall be deemed to be reduced to zero. The provisions of
     subsection 2.13(b) (except for the first sentence thereof) shall apply as

                                       56

     if a Replaced Lease Receivable and a Substituted Lease Receivable are,
     respectively, a Removed Receivable and a Substituted Receivable and the
     provisions of subsection 2.13(c)(i) (A) (without regard to clause (B) of
     subsection 2.13(c)(i)) shall apply as if a Replaced Lease Receivable is a
     Removed Receivable; provided that, in accordance with subsection 2.13(d)
     and notwithstanding the date of substitution of a Substituted Lease
     Receivable in accordance with this subsection 2.13(e), payments shall be
     made to the Dissenting Purchaser with respect to a Substituted Lease
     Receivable on the Settlement Date related to the Settlement Statement which
     contains information with respect to such substitution. The making of such
     substitution shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set
     forth in subsection 5.2, including in each case, without limitation, the
     delivery of an Assignment and FAA Assignment or a Foreign Assignment, as
     applicable, with respect to each such Substituted Lease Receivable on or
     before the Business Day such Substituted Lease Receivable is substituted.

(f)  On any Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) the Managing
     Facility Agent may, notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 11.1 or
     any other provision regarding the Purchasers' rights to consent to
     substitutions, without the consent of any of the Purchasers, allow the
     Seller to substitute an Eligible Receivable (a "Current Receivable") for an
     Eligible Receivable a payment under which is more than 30 days past due
     from the original due date therefor, but which is not otherwise a Defaulted
     Receivable; provided that the Settlement Statement delivered on the
     Reporting Date prior to such Settlement Date shall contain the information
     required thereby with respect to such proposed substitution. In addition to
     the consent of the Managing Facility Agent required by the immediately
     preceding sentence, the Seller's permission to substitute one or more
     Current Receivables for any Delinquent Receivables is subject to the
     following conditions precedent: (i) no Trigger Amortization Event has
     occurred and is then continuing, (ii) if such substitution occurs during
     the Amortization Period, and provided that no Trigger Amortization Event
     has occurred and is then continuing, the Majority Purchasers have approved
     such substitution and (iii) either the Current Receivable has a Final
     Payment Date which is not after the Final Payment Date of the replaced
     Delinquent Receivable or if the Final Payment Date of the Current
     Receivable is after that of the replaced Delinquent Receivable, then only
     that portion of the Principal Balance of such proposed Current Receivable
     which is scheduled to be paid on or prior to the Final Payment Date of the
     replaced Delinquent Receivable shall be included as a Purchased Receivable.
     If the Principal Balance of the Delinquent Receivable proposed to be
     replaced by one or more Current Receivables is greater than the aggregate
     Principal Balances of such Current Receivables, the Seller shall deposit
     cash into the Concentration Account in an amount equal to such excess.
     Alternatively, if the Principal Balance of such Delinquent Receivable is
     less than the aggregate Principal Balances of the corresponding Current
     Receivable or Receivables, during the Revolving Period the Seller may, so
     long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, request the
     Purchasers to purchase such excess, to the extent of the Available
     Commitments, pursuant to subsection 2.2. If such excess is not purchased
     for any reason set forth in this Agreement, then each Current Receivable
     able to be substituted to the fullest extent shall first be substituted and
     any remaining Current Receivable shall be a Participated Receivable subject

                                       57

     to the provisions of subsection 2.4. During the Revolving Period, if any
     Current Receivable is an Extended Term Receivable, then such Current
     Receivable shall be subject to subsection 2.5 and the Cash Flow Cutoff Date
     for such Current Receivable shall be deemed to be, initially, (i) so long
     as no Rating Event has occurred and is continuing, thirteen years after the
     date of substitution of such Current Receivable and (ii) during the
     continuance of a Rating Event, ten years after the date of substitution of
     such Current Receivable. Substitution for a Delinquent Receivable shall not
     reduce the Repurchase Obligation.

     2.14 Accounts. (a) On or before the Closing Date the Seller shall establish
in its name a segregated account with a commercial bank satisfactory to the
Managing Facility Agent (the "Collection Account"). Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of a Remittance Event, and unless the Servicer has
provided a Servicer Letter of Credit in accordance with subsection 2.15(a), the
Seller or the Servicer shall within two Business Days after its receipt, (i)
deposit all Collections received by it directly into the Collection Account and
(ii) transfer or cause to be transferred to the Concentration Account any
Collections so deposited. Any amounts received by the Seller and not related to
the Purchased Receivables or the related Contracts or Financed Aircraft shall
not be deposited into the Collection Account. Any amounts at any time on deposit
in the Collection Account shall be transferred only to the Concentration Account
and to no other deposit or other account (including, but not limited to, any
account or sub-account maintained pursuant to Raytheon's cash management
system). The Seller hereby grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable
benefit of the Purchasers a security interest in the Collection Account and all
amounts from time to time on deposit therein to secure the Obligations. The
Seller shall have no right to withdraw any amounts on deposit in the Collection
Account.

(b)  On or before the Closing Date there shall be established with and in the
     name of the Managing Facility Agent a segregated account (the
     "Concentration Account") which shall be maintained as a cash collateral
     account subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the Managing
     Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers. The Seller hereby
     grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the
     Purchasers a security interest in any of its right, title and interest in
     the Concentration Account and all amounts from time to time on deposit
     therein and all income from the investment of such amounts to secure, in
     each case, the Obligations. Funds on deposit from time to time in the
     Concentration Account shall bear interest at the then prevailing rate paid
     by the Managing Facility Agent for deposit accounts with similar amounts on
     deposit from time to time. If at any time funds on deposit in the
     Concentration Account are greater than $100,000, the Managing Facility
     Agent may, but shall not be required to, unless it receives a request from
     the Seller or Raytheon, invest such funds in Cash Equivalents with
     maturities not later than the next succeeding Settlement Date, to the
     extent such requested Cash Equivalents are available for investment. Any
     investment request by the Seller or Raytheon shall be given to the Managing
     Facility Agent one Business Day prior to the day the investment is to be
     made (which shall be a Business Day in New York, New York and San
     Francisco, California) and shall specify the particular Cash Equivalents

                                       58

     and maturities thereof. Any interest or investment earnings on amounts in
     the Concentration Account on related investments shall be retained in the
     Concentration Account to be withdrawn in accordance with this subsection
     2.14(b). The Managing Facility Agent shall have the right to withdraw
     amounts from the Concentration Account to make the payments required to be
     made hereunder from Collections. Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor
     any Purchaser shall have any responsibility for any such investment and the
     Managing Facility Agent shall be permitted to liquidate any such
     investment, without liability for any loss occurring by reason of such
     liquidation, to the extent necessary to make payments and distributions
     under this Agreement. The Seller shall have no right to withdraw amounts on
     deposit from time to time in the Concentration Account.

(c)  (i) On or before the Closing Date there shall be established with and in
     the name of the Managing Facility Agent a segregated trust account
     comprised of two segregated sub-accounts, the Seller cash collateral
     sub-account (the "Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account") and the RAC cash
     collateral sub-account (the "RAC Cash Collateral Sub-Account", the Seller
     Cash Collateral Sub-Account and the RAC Cash Collateral Sub-Account being
     referred to collectively as the "Cash Collateral Account") which shall be
     maintained as a cash collateral account subject to the exclusive dominion
     and control of the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the
     Purchasers. The Seller hereby grants to the Managing Facility Agent for the
     ratable benefit of the Purchasers a first priority security interest in the
     Cash Collateral Account and all amounts on deposit from time to time
     therein and all income from the investment of such amounts to secure, in
     each case, the Obligations. Funds on deposit from time to time in the
     Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account shall bear interest at the then
     prevailing rate paid by the Managing Facility Agent for deposit accounts
     with similar amounts on deposit from time to time. If at any time funds on
     deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account are greater than
     $100,000, the Managing Facility Agent may, but shall not be required to,
     unless it receives a request from the Seller, invest funds on deposit in
     the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account in Cash Equivalents with maturities
     not later than the next succeeding Settlement Date (or such other
     maturities as the Seller shall request and the Managing Facility Agent
     shall approve), to the extent such requested Cash Equivalents are available
     for investment. Any investment request by the Seller shall be given to the
     Managing Facility Agent one Business Day prior to the day the investment is
     to be made (which shall be a Business Day in New York, New York and San
     Francisco, California) and shall specify the particular Cash Equivalents
     and maturities thereof. Any interest or investment earnings on amounts in
     the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account or related investments shall be
     retained in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account to be withdrawn in
     accordance with paragraphs (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this subsection 2.14(c).
     Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any
     responsibility for any such investment and the Managing Facility Agent
     shall be permitted to liquidate any such investment, without liability for
     any loss occurring by reason of such liquidation, to the extent necessary
     to make payments and distributions under this Agreement. The Seller shall
     have no right to withdraw amounts on deposit from time to time in the Cash
     Collateral Account.

                                       59

(ii) If on any Settlement Date on which the Seller is required to repurchase
     Defaulted Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.10 and fails for any reason
     to repurchase such Defaulted Receivables or substitute for such Defaulted
     Receivables pursuant to subsection 2.13, whether or not RAC fails to
     repurchase such Defaulted Receivables under the Repurchase Agreement, the
     Managing Facility Agent may withdraw from amounts on deposit in the Seller
     Cash Collateral Sub-Account on account of such Defaulted Receivable an
     amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Repurchase Price for such Defaulted
     Receivable plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon required to be paid
     by subsection 2.10 and (B) the amount then on deposit in the Seller Cash
     Collateral Sub-Account. It is specifically understood and agreed that
     amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account, whether on
     account of 25% Repurchase Receivables, 75% Repurchase Receivables or 90%
     Repurchase Receivables, may be withdrawn as aforesaid on account of any
     Defaulted Receivable, regardless of the Repurchase Percentage associated
     therewith or whether the RAC Repurchase Obligation shall be outstanding.
     Any amounts so withdrawn shall be deposited into the Concentration Account
     and allocated and distributed pursuant to subsections 2.15 and 2.16,
     respectively. The Seller agrees with the Managing Facility Agent and the
     Purchasers to deposit into the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account, without
     any requirement for notice or demand therefor, the lesser of the amount
     withdrawn therefrom or the sum of the Repurchase Obligation then in effect
     on the date such withdrawal is made, plus interest thereon at a rate per
     annum equal to the Default Rate for the period from such date of withdrawal
     to such date of deposit. Deposit of amounts into the Seller Cash Collateral
     Sub-Account pursuant to the preceding sentence shall, to the extent of such
     deposit, satisfy the Seller's obligation to repurchase such Defaulted
     Receivable pursuant to subsection 2.10.

(iii) If the Seller or the Servicer (if then Raytheon Credit or any Affiliate
     thereof) shall fail to make any deposit, payment or transfer of funds
     required to be made by the Seller or the Servicer under this Agreement or
     any other document executed and delivered in connection herewith,
     including, without limitation, any payment, deposit or transfer of funds or
     payment of any indemnity required to be made pursuant to subsection 2.7(b),
     2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 2.18 or 9.1 (each such payment, deposit or transfer, a
     "Reimbursable Obligation"), then the Managing Facility Agent with the
     consent of the Majority Purchasers may, in addition to any similar rights
     in favor of the Managing Facility Agent under the Repurchase Agreement,
     withdraw from the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account on the date such
     Reimbursable Obligation is due hereunder an amount equal to the lesser of
     (A) such Reimbursable Obligation and (B) the amount then on deposit in the
     Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account. The Seller agrees with the Managing
     Facility Agent and the Purchasers to deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral
     Sub-Account, without any requirement for notice or demand therefor, the
     amount withdrawn on the date such withdrawal is made, plus interest thereon
     at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate for the period from such date
     of withdrawal to such date of deposit.

                                       60

(iv) No amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral Sub-Account (including
     interest or investment earnings) shall be released to the Seller until the
     Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero and all other amounts owing
     to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser hereunder are paid in full,
     provided, that,

                  (x) on each Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement
         Date) occurring during the continuance of a Rating Event, after giving
         effect to all collections and distributions on such date, the amounts
         on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in excess of the Aggregate
         Repurchase Obligation on such Settlement Date shall be released pro
         rata based upon their respective repurchase obligations, to the Seller
         and to RAC;

                  (y) on each Settlement Date occurring during the continuance
         of a Rating Event following a Settlement Period during which Finance
         Charges on Wholesale Receivables which are Quarterly Receivables have
         been paid, the excess of (A) amounts which were on previous Settlement
         Dates, pursuant to subsection 2.16(b)(vi), deposited into the Cash
         Collateral Account as accrued Finance Charge Collections on such
         Quarterly Receivables, over (B) any portion of such amounts so
         previously deposited which are on such Settlement Date withdrawn from
         the Cash Collateral Account by the Managing Facility Agent and applied
         pursuant to subsection 2.14(c) shall be released to the Seller; and

                  (z) on the Business Day after the date on which the
         Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero and all other amounts
         owing to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers hereunder have
         been paid in full, all amounts on deposit in the Seller Cash Collateral
         Sub-Account shall be released to the Seller.

     2.15 Remittance and Allocation of Collections. (a) The Seller or the
Servicer shall, subject to subsection 2.14(a), deposit into or transfer to the
Concentration Account all Collections within two Business Days following receipt
thereof; provided that so long as (i) a Remittance Event has not occurred and is
continuing or (ii) following the occurrence and during the continuance of a
Remittance Event, the Servicer has provided a Servicer Letter of Credit, the
Seller or the Servicer shall make such deposit in or transfer to the
Concentration Account not later than the Settlement Date following the
Settlement Period during which such Collections were received; provided,
further, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Rating Event,
the Seller or the Servicer shall, at the times required by and otherwise in
accordance with this subsection 2.15(a), also deposit into or transfer to the
Concentration Account interest payments made by RAC on behalf of an Obligor
under a Wholesale Receivable.

(b)  On each Reporting Date the Servicer shall allocate all Collections received
     on account of the Purchased Receivables during the preceding Settlement
     Period between Principal Collections and Finance Charge Collections. All
     Finance Charge Collections shall be deposited in the Concentration Account
     in accordance with subsection 2.15(a) and distributed pursuant to
     subsection 2.16(b). All Principal Collections shall be deposited in the
     Concentration Account in accordance with subsection 2.15(a) and applied in
     accordance with subsection 2.16(a); provided that (i) if on any Settlement
     Date during the Revolving Period the aggregate Purchase Price to be paid
     for purchases to be made on such Settlement Date exceeds amounts deposited
     or to be deposited into the Concentration Account by the Seller or the

                                       61

     Servicer, as the case may be, on or during the Settlement Period prior to
     such Settlement Date on account of Principal Collections, the Seller may
     retain such Principal Collections, or to the extent previously deposited
     into the Concentration Account shall make payments therefrom, as
     application for such aggregate Purchase Price to be paid to the Seller on
     such Settlement Date and amounts so retained by or paid to the Seller shall
     be treated as a payment (in whole or in part, as applicable) for such
     Purchase Price and (ii) to the extent the amount of such Principal
     Collections exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price of Eligible Receivables
     available to be purchased on such Settlement Date, the Seller or the
     Servicer, as the case may be, shall deposit, to the extent not previously
     deposited, such excess in the Concentration Account on or prior to such
     Settlement Date for distribution in accordance with subsection 2.16. Any
     purchases made pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) shall be subject to the
     satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) of
     subsection 5.2. During the Amortization Period, all Principal Collections
     shall be deposited into the Concentration Account in accordance with
     subsection 2.15(a) and, on the Settlement Date on or following such date of
     deposit, shall be distributed in accordance with subsection 2.16. The
     portion of any deposit to be made into the Concentration Account required
     to be made pursuant to subsections 2.10, 2.11 or 2.12 or the first sentence
     of 2.13(b) (including, without limitation, on account of a Substituted
     Lease Receivable) representing the Repurchase Price for any Receivable
     shall be subject to the provisions of this subsection 2.15(b).

(c)  Any Principal Collections received on account of an Extended Term
     Receivable during the Revolving Period shall, subject to the satisfaction
     of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) of subsection
     5.2, be applied to purchase the next succeeding monthly payments of such
     Receivable which have not been purchased and which are payable prior to the
     Cash Flow Cutoff Date then applicable to such Receivable.

(d)  All Net Recoveries required to be deposited in accordance with subsection
     2.10(a)(ii) shall be deposited into the Concentration Account as
     Collections. On the Reporting Date following the Settlement Period in which
     such deposit is made, such Net Recoveries shall be allocated by the
     Managing Facility Agent as Principal Collections and Finance Charge
     Collections and the Managing Facility Agent shall notify the Servicer of
     such allocation the Business Day following such Reporting Date. Such
     allocation shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error or unless
     the Managing Facility Agent receives notice from the Servicer of any error
     made in such allocation on or before the third Business Day after such
     notice is given to the Servicer and, in the event of any dispute between
     the Managing Facility Agent and the Servicer with respect to such
     allocation, the allocation of such Net Recoveries shall be conclusively
     made by the Managing Facility Agent's independent certified public
     accountants prior to the next succeeding Reporting Date. Such Net
     Recoveries shall be distributed pursuant to subsection 2.16.

                                       62

     2.16 Distribution and Application of Collections. (a) Principal
Collections. All Principal Collections on Purchased Receivables shall be payable
to the Purchasers up to the amount of the Outstanding Purchase Price from time
to time. On each Settlement Date during the Revolving Period, Principal
Collections received during the prior Settlement Period shall be first, applied
to the aggregate Purchase Price of Eligible Receivables purchased on such
Settlement Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and second, paid to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date and applied in
respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price. On each Settlement Date during the
Amortization Period, Principal Collections received during the prior Settlement
Period shall be paid to the Purchasers on such Settlement Date and applied in
respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price. Following an Amortization Event,
Principal Collections on account of the Purchase Discount applied to the
Purchase Price of Receivables purchased during a Rating Event or a Discount
Event may, at the discretion of the Managing Facility Agent, be deemed Finance
Charge Collections available to be distributed pursuant to subsections
2.16(b)(ii) and (b)(iii).

(b)  Finance Charge Collections. On each Settlement Date (other than a Special
     Settlement Date) funds on deposit in the Concentration Account representing
     Finance Charge Collections in respect of the preceding Settlement Period
     shall be distributed by the Managing Facility Agent as follows, to the
     extent of funds available therefor:

                           (i)  first, to the Servicer as payment of the 
         Servicing Fee for the preceding Settlement Period;

                           (ii) second, to the Purchasers pro rata as payment of
         all interest due pursuant to subsection 2.17(a) and (c) for the
         preceding Accrual Period;

                           (iii) third, to the Managing Facility Agent and each
         Purchaser which has made a demand prior to the Reporting Date preceding
         such Settlement Date, to costs payable pursuant to subsections 2.22,
         2.23, 2.24 and 11.5;

                           (iv) fourth, to the Purchasers pro rata as payment of
         the Commitment Fees for the preceding Accrual Period pursuant to
         subsection 2.17(d) and second, to the Managing Facility Agent as
         payment of the fees referred to in subsection 2.17(e) to the extent
         such fees have not been paid directly by the Seller;

                           (v) fifth, if a Rating Event has occurred and is
         continuing, to the extent of funds available therefor, to the Managing
         Facility Agent for deposit into the Cash Collateral Account an amount
         equal to Finance Charges on those Wholesale Receivables which are
         Quarterly Receivables which Finance Charges have accrued during the
         preceding Settlement Period and are payable under the related Contract
         on a subsequent Settlement Date; and

                                       63

                           (vi) sixth, any remaining Finance Charge Collections
         (such remainder, "Excess Spread") shall be distributed as follows: (1)
         so long as no Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is
         continuing, to the Seller or its designees and (2) in all other cases,
         100% thereof shall be paid to the Purchasers pro rata as payment in
         respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price.

(c)  All Collections received from an Obligor of any Purchased Receivable shall
     be applied to Purchased Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age
     of such Purchased Receivables, starting with the oldest outstanding amount
     of such Purchased Receivable (i.e., the most delinquent of such Purchased
     Receivables), except if the payment is designated by such Obligor for
     application to specific Receivables. All Principal Collections received on
     account of any Extended Term Receivable and not used to purchase monthly
     payments of such Receivable payable after its most recent Cash Flow Cutoff
     Date shall be applied in the direct order of maturity thereof. Payments
     made by an Obligor on account of a Receivable shall, except as otherwise
     specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and
     unless otherwise instructed by the Managing Facility Agent and the Required
     Purchasers, be applied as a Collection of any Purchased Receivable of such
     Obligor to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before
     being applied to any other indebtedness of such Obligor to the Seller or
     Raytheon Credit.

     2.17 Interest and Fees. (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below, the
Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest for each day during an Accrual
Period at a rate per annum equal to the Note Rate and shall be payable on each
Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date) for the immediately
preceding Accrual Period; provided that, during the Amendment Accrual Period,
the Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest at the Interbank Rate for the
Amendment Accrual Period, in accordance with Section 5.3. To the extent that the
Outstanding Purchase Price has not been reduced to zero on the date the
Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of such term,
interest shall accrue pursuant to this subsection 2.17(a) regardless of whether
the Seller shall be obligated to pay Expense Amounts under subsection 2.18.

(b)  The Outstanding Purchase Price for Receivables purchased on a Special
     Settlement Date shall bear interest (i) at a rate per annum equal to the
     Base Rate for the first three Working Days following such Special
     Settlement Date and (ii) thereafter at a rate per annum equal to the
     Interbank Rate for each day of the Special Settlement Date Accrual Period;
     provided that, if the Seller provides the Managing Facility Agent with the
     notice provided for in Section 2.3 at least three Working Days prior to the
     applicable Special Settlement Date, then interest shall be calculated in
     accordance with clause (ii) from such Special Settlement Date until the end
     of the related Special Settlement Date Accrual Period. Interest payable
     under this Section 2.17(b) shall be payable on the next Settlement Date.
     Beginning with the first Settlement Date after any Special Settlement Date,
     interest with respect to the Receivables purchased on such Special
     Settlement Date shall be calculated in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

                                       64

(c)  If all or any portion of any amount (including interest) payable by the
     Seller hereunder shall not be paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear
     interest at a rate per annum equal to the Note Rate plus 1% (the "Default
     Rate") from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full
     (after as well as before judgment). The Outstanding Purchase Price shall
     bear interest pursuant to, and at the times specified in, subsection 8.2(a)
     for each day during an Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the
     Default Rate until the Outstanding Purchase Price is reduced to zero (after
     as well as before judgment). Any amount payable pursuant to this subsection
     2.17(c) shall be payable on each Settlement Date (other than a Special
     Settlement Date), or on demand after any judgment. To the extent that the
     Outstanding Purchase Price has not been reduced to zero on the date the
     Amortization Period ends pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of such
     term, interest shall accrue pursuant to this subsection 2.17(c) regardless
     of whether the Seller shall be obligated to pay Expense Amounts under
     subsection 2.18. Interest accruing pursuant to this subsection 2.17(c)
     shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(d)  During the period from and including the Closing Date to the date on which
     the Revolving Period ends, a commitment fee (a "Commitment Fee") shall be
     payable to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of each Purchaser,
     payable monthly in arrears on each Settlement Date (other than a Special
     Settlement Date) and computed at the rate of 0.10% per annum from and after
     March 18, 1998 (0.13% per annum prior to such date) on the average daily
     amount of the Available Commitment of such Purchaser during each Accrual
     Period ending prior to the Settlement Date on which the Commitment Fee is
     paid, commencing on the first such Settlement Date to occur after the
     Closing Date.

(e)  The Seller agrees to pay (i) to the Managing Facility Agent for its account
     the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, dated March 11, 1999, among the
     Managing Facility Agent, the Seller and the Guarantor in the amounts and on
     the dates set forth therein and (ii) to the Syndication Agent for its
     account the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, dated February 17, 1999,
     among the Syndication Agent, the Seller and the Guarantor in the amounts
     and on the dates set forth therein.

(f)  Interest and fees required to be paid under this subsection 2.17 shall be
     payable regardless of whether sufficient Finance Charge Collections
     therefore are on deposit in the Concentration Account on the date or dates
     such interest or fees are required to be paid.

                                       65

     2.18 Yield Adjustment. If on any Settlement Date (other than a Special
Settlement Date) any Expense Amount is not paid in full on such Settlement Date,
then on such Settlement Date the Seller will pay to the Managing Facility Agent
for the account of each Purchaser the amounts required to pay all such Expense
Amounts in full provided, that the Seller's obligation under this subsection
2.18 in any calendar year shall not exceed an amount equal to the product of the
Note Rate as of such date times the Outstanding Purchase Price as of such date.
The Seller shall not be obligated to pay pursuant to this subsection 2.18 any
Expense Amounts which accrue after the date the Amortization Period ends;
provided that the Seller shall remain obligated to pay any Expense Amount which
accrued prior to such date (whether or not claimed prior to such date) so long
as a claim for such Expense Amount is made prior to the times set forth in the
subsection hereof governing such Expense Amount.

     2.19 Computations and Payments. (a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by
or on behalf of the Seller hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance
with the terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day
when due in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately
available funds. All computations of Commitment Fees, interest and other fees
and amounts payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first but excluding the
last day). The Managing Facility Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the
Seller and the Purchasers of each determination of a LIBO Rate or an Interbank
Rate.

(b)  Each determination of the Note Rate, the Interbank Rate or the Default Rate
     by the Managing Facility Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement
     shall be conclusive and binding on the Seller and the Purchasers in the
     absence of manifest error. The Managing Facility Agent shall, at the
     request of the Seller, deliver to the Seller a statement showing the
     quotations used by the Managing Facility Agent in determining the Note Rate
     for any Accrual Period.

(c)  If any Reference Bank's Commitment shall terminate for any reason
     whatsoever, such Reference Bank shall thereupon cease to be a Reference
     Bank, and if, as a result of the foregoing, there shall only be one
     Reference Bank remaining, the Managing Facility Agent (after consultation
     with the Seller and the Purchasers) shall, by notice to the Seller and the
     Purchasers, designate another Purchaser as a Reference Bank so that there
     shall at all times be at least two Reference Banks.

(d)  Each Reference Bank shall use its best efforts to furnish quotations of
     rates to the Managing Facility Agent to the extent contemplated by the
     definition of "LIBO Rate". If any Reference Bank shall be unable or shall
     otherwise fail to supply such rates to the Managing Facility Agent upon its
     request, the LIBO Rate shall be determined on the basis of the quotations
     of the remaining Reference Banks or Reference Bank.

     2.20 Pro Rata Treatment. (a) Except with respect to payments to a
Dissenting Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.8(b)(ii) or 2.13(c), (i) each
purchase by the Purchasers hereunder, each payment by the Seller in respect of
the Commitment Fees and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata
according to the respective Available Commitment Percentages of the Purchasers
and (ii) each payment by the Seller in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price
and interest thereon and any repurchase of Receivables shall be made pro rata
according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Purchasers. The
Managing Facility Agent shall distribute payments received by or on behalf of
the Seller to the Purchasers promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.

                                       66

(b)  Unless the Managing Facility Agent shall have been notified in writing by
     any Purchaser prior to a Settlement Date that such Purchaser will not make
     available to the Managing Facility Agent the amount that would constitute
     its Available Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Purchase Price to be
     paid on such date, the Managing Facility Agent may assume that such
     Purchaser has made such amount available to the Managing Facility Agent on
     such Settlement Date, and the Managing Facility Agent may, in reliance upon
     such assumption, make available to the Seller a corresponding amount. If
     such amount is made available to the Managing Facility Agent on a date
     after such Settlement Date, such Purchaser shall pay to the Managing
     Facility Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily
     average Federal funds rate during such period as quoted by the Managing
     Facility Agent, times (ii) the amount of such Purchaser's Available
     Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price, times (iii) a
     fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and
     including such Settlement Date to the date on which such Purchaser's
     Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price shall have
     become immediately available to the Managing Facility Agent and the
     denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Managing Facility Agent
     submitted to any Purchaser with respect to any amounts owing under this
     subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such
     Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase
     Price is not in fact made available to the Managing Facility Agent by such
     Purchaser within three Business Days after such Settlement Date, then on
     the fourth Business Day after such Settlement Date the Seller shall be
     deemed to have repurchased participating interests in the Receivables in an
     amount equal to such Purchaser's Available Commitment Percentage of the
     aggregate Purchase Price paid on such Settlement Date, together with
     interest on such amount at the rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate, such
     repurchase to be made by a cash payment to the Managing Facility Agent for
     its own account; provided that such repurchase shall not limit the rights
     of the Seller against the Purchaser which failed to make available its
     Available Commitment Percentage of such aggregate Purchase Price.

     2.21 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change
in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall
make it unlawful for any Purchaser to make or maintain its proportionate share
of the Outstanding Purchase Price based on the LIBO Rate as contemplated by this
Agreement, (a) the Commitment of such Purchaser hereunder to make purchases
shall forthwith be canceled and (b) the Outstanding Purchase Price of such
Purchaser shall be paid on each Settlement Date thereafter as if such Purchaser
were a Dissenting Purchaser under subsection 2.8.

     2.22 Requirements of Law. (a) In the event that any change in any
Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance
by any Purchaser with any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (each, a "Change
in Law") made subsequent to the date hereof (or with respect to a Purchasing
Party which becomes a party hereto pursuant to subsection 11.6(c), made
subsequent to the date such Purchasing Party became a party hereto) shall:

                                       67

(i)  impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
     requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or
     credit extended by, any Purchaser (except any such reserve requirement
     reflected in the LIBO Rate); or

(ii) impose on any Purchaser or the London interbank market any other condition
     affecting this Agreement or the making of purchases or the maintaining of a
     proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price by such Purchaser;

         and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to
         such Purchaser of making purchases or maintaining its proportionate
         share of the Outstanding Purchase Price (or of maintaining its
         obligation to do any of the foregoing) or to reduce the amount of any
         sum received or receivable by such Purchaser hereunder (whether of
         principal, interest or otherwise), then the Seller will pay to such
         Purchaser such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
         Purchaser for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)  If any Purchaser determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
     requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
     such Purchaser's capital or on the capital of such Purchaser's holding
     company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or such Purchaser's
     obligations hereunder, to a level below that which such Purchaser or such
     Purchaser's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law
     (taking into consideration such Purchaser's policies and the policies of
     such Purchaser's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then
     from time to time the Seller will pay to such Purchaser such additional
     amount or amounts as will compensate such Purchaser or such Purchaser's
     holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)  A certificate of a Purchaser setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
     to compensate such Purchaser or its holding company, as the case may be, as
     specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this subsection shall be delivered to
     the Seller and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Seller shall
     pay such Purchaser the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
     10 days after receipt thereof.

(d)  Failure or delay on the part of any Purchaser to demand compensation
     pursuant to this subsection shall not constitute a waiver of such
     Purchaser's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Seller
     shall not be required to compensate a Purchaser pursuant to this subsection
     for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior
     to the date that such Purchaser notifies the Seller of the Change in Law
     giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Purchaser's
     intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the
     Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
     retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended
     to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

                                       68

     2.23 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or an account of any obligation of
the Seller hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for
any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Seller shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this subsection) the Managing Facility Agent, Co-Administrative Agent or
Purchaser (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Seller shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Seller shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)  In addition, the Seller shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
     Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)  The Seller shall indemnify the Managing Facility Agent, each
     Co-Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, within 10 days after written
     demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
     Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
     attributable to amounts payable under this subsection) paid by the Managing
     Facility Agent, such Co-Administrative Agent or such Purchaser, as the case
     may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising
     therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
     Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
     Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or
     liability delivered to the Seller by a Purchaser, or by the Managing
     Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Purchaser or a
     Co-Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)  As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
     Taxes by the Seller to a Governmental Authority, the Seller shall deliver
     to the Managing Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a
     receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a
     copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
     reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent.

(e)  Any Foreign Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
     withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Seller is
     located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect
     to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Seller (with a copy
     to the Managing Facility Agent), at the time or times prescribed by
     applicable law or reasonably requested by the Seller, such properly
     completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will
     permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

     2.24 Reemployment Costs. The Seller agrees to indemnify each Purchaser and
to hold each Purchaser harmless from any loss or expense (including, but not
limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by a
Purchaser to lenders of funds obtained by it or them to purchase or maintain an
interest in the Purchased Receivables with respect to which the Note Rate is
determined by reference to the LIBO Rate) as a consequence of (a) default by the
Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder, (b) any reduction in the
Outstanding Purchase Price prior to the last day of any Settlement Period, (c)


                                       69

the failure of the Seller or the Servicer to make any amounts available to the
Managing Facility Agent when due hereunder or (d) any expenses (excluding legal
expenses) incurred by any Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.21. A certificate
of such Purchaser submitted to the Seller certifying, in reasonably specific
detail, the basis for, calculation of and amounts of such additional costs shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive for
a period of two years following the date on which the Amortization Period ends.

     2.25 Seller's Obligations Absolute and Unconditional. The Seller's
obligations under this Section 2 to make payments, deposits and repurchases
shall be absolute and unconditional and shall be performed without regard to any
set-off which the Seller at any time may have available to it.

     2.26 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Purchaser. (a) If any Purchaser
requests compensation under subsection 2.22, or if the Seller is required to pay
any additional amount to any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the
account of any Purchaser pursuant to subsection 2.23, then such Purchaser shall
use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or
booking its purchases hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment
of such Purchaser, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.22 or 2.23, as the case may be, in the
future and (ii) would not subject such Purchaser to any unreimbursed cost or
expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Purchaser. The Seller
hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Purchaser
in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)  If any Purchaser requests compensation under subsection 2.22, or if the
     Seller is required to pay any additional amount to any Purchaser or any
     Governmental Authority for the account of any Purchaser pursuant to
     subsection 2.23, or if any Purchaser defaults in its obligation hereunder
     to make purchases or maintain its proportionate share of the Outstanding
     Purchase Price or if at any time after the Effective Date any Purchaser
     shall cause the Managing Facility Agent to notify the Seller and the
     Servicer of a Prohibited Jurisdiction, then the Seller may, at its sole
     expense and effort, upon notice to such Purchaser and the Managing Facility
     Agent, require such Purchaser to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
     accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in subsection
     11.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
     assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
     Purchaser, if a Purchaser accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the
     Seller shall have received the prior written consent of the Managing
     Facility Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such
     Purchaser shall have received payment of an amount equal to such
     Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, accrued interest thereon, accrued
     fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to
     the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or
     the Seller (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any
     such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under subsection
     2.22 or payments required to be made pursuant to subsection 2.23, such


                                       70

     assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and
     (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a request to add an
     additional Prohibited Jurisdiction, such assignee will not request that
     such jurisdiction be so categorized. A Purchaser shall not be required to
     make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a
     waiver by such Purchaser or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
     Seller to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

     2.27 Designation of Affiliate Receivables and Foreign Receivables. (a) Each

     meaning of Section 9-103 of the New York UCC), addressed to the Old
     Administrative Agent and the Purchasers (x) to the effect that no further
     action need be taken in order to (1) perfect the transfer by Raytheon
     Credit to the Seller of such Existing Certified Receivable, the related


                                       75

     Financed Aircraft and Applicable Lease (if applicable) and Collections
     thereon in accordance with the Intercompany Purchase Agreement and (2)
     continue the Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent of such Existing
     Certified Receivable, the related Financed Aircraft and Applicable Lease
     (if applicable) and Collections thereon as a duly perfected Lien having the
     same priority as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date and (y)
     if any actions had been required in order to render the opinions set forth
     in clause (x), setting forth such actions and (z) covering such other
     matters as the Old Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, which
     opinion shall be in all respects satisfactory in form and substance to the
     Old Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d)  On the first Settlement Date (other than a Special Settlement Date)
     following the Certified Opinion Delivery Date, the Seller shall repurchase
     from the Purchasers and the Purchasers agree to sell to the Seller on such
     date in accordance with the terms hereof, each Existing Certified
     Receivable and each Existing GA Receivable (the Foreign Obligor of which is
     located in Canada, France or Australia) as to which the Purchasers shall
     not have received a legal opinion to the effect set forth in subsection
     2.27(c) hereof. Subject to subsections 2.13 and 2.15(b), the Seller shall
     make such repurchase by depositing in the Concentration Account cash an
     amount for each such Receivable equal to the amount set forth in clause (a)
     of the definition of "Repurchase Price", calculated at the date such
     deposit is made, except to the extent (without duplication) of any payment
     made pursuant to subsection 2.18, for the Settlement Period during which
     such interest accrued and was not paid by the Foreign Obligor under the
     related Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied and
     distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16. Except as
     provided in subsection 9.1, the sole obligation of the Seller with respect
     to a Receivable of the type described in this subsection 2.27(d) shall be
     the requirement to repurchase or substitute for such Receivable pursuant to
     this subsection 2.27(d).

         SECTION 3. THE SERVICER AND SERVICING OF PURCHASED RECEIVABLES

     3.1 Designation of Servicer; Removal. (a) The servicing, administering and
collection of Purchased Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the
"Servicer") so designated from time to time in accordance with this subsection
3.1. Until the Required Purchasers give notice to the Seller of the designation
of a new Servicer pursuant to subsection 3.1(b), Raytheon Credit is hereby
designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the
Servicer for the Purchased Receivables sold hereunder. The Servicer may, with
the prior consent of the Required Purchasers, subcontract with any other Person
to perform, in accordance with applicable laws, the servicing, administering or
collecting of Purchased Receivables, provided that the Servicer shall remain
liable for the performance of the duties and obligations of the Servicer
pursuant to the terms hereof. With respect to the Existing Receivables, the
capacity of the Servicer shall be a continuation by Raytheon Credit of its
capacity as Servicer under and as defined in each of the Existing Agreements.

                                       76

(b)  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified
     Amortization Event, the Required Purchasers may remove Raytheon Credit (or
     any successor Servicer) as the Servicer and appoint as a successor Servicer
     any Person to succeed Raytheon Credit (or any successor Servicer) as
     Servicer, on the condition that such successor Servicer agrees to perform
     the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.
     Any such removal of Raytheon Credit (or any successor Servicer) as the
     Servicer shall not become effective until such successor Servicer accepts
     its appointment and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this
     Agreement with respect to the Servicer in a writing satisfactory in form
     and substance to the Managing Facility Agent and the Required Purchasers.
     The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Managing Facility Agent, the
     Purchasers and any successor Servicer if the Servicer is terminated under
     this Agreement, including transferring to the successor Servicer all cash
     amounts or documents or instruments relating to the Purchased Receivables
     held by the Servicer at the time of its removal.

(c)  The authorization of the Servicer under this Agreement shall terminate when
     all the obligations under this Agreement have been paid in full.

     3.2 Duties of Servicer. (a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken
all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to administer, service and
collect each Purchased Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with
applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and
solely in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. The Seller, the
Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser each agrees that the Servicer may
enforce its rights and interests in and under the Purchased Receivables and the
Contracts and with respect to the Financed Aircraft. The Servicer shall remit
Collections in accordance with subsections 2.14 and 2.15(a) and until such
remittances are made, shall hold such Collections in trust for the account of
the Purchasers. The Servicer may not extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms
of any Purchased Receivable, or amend, modify or waive any term or condition of
any Contract related thereto, or extend, amend or otherwise modify the rights of
the Seller except (i) in accordance with subsection 7.1(b) and (ii) if the
Servicer is not then Raytheon Credit, with the Seller's prior consent. No
Servicer (if not Raytheon Credit) may commence or settle any legal action to
enforce collection of any Purchased Receivable without the prior consent of the
Required Purchasers. The Seller shall deliver to the Servicer (if not the
Seller) all computer tapes or disks and, upon the Managing Facility Agent's
request, all documents, instruments or other records which evidence or relate to
Purchased Receivables (the foregoing, the "Contract Files").

(b)  The Servicer (if not Raytheon Credit) shall as soon as practicable
     following receipt turn over to the Seller or any other party entitled
     thereto the Collections on any Receivable which is not a Purchased
     Receivable less all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and
     expenses of the Servicer of servicing, collecting and administering such
     Receivable to the extent not covered by the Servicing Fee received by it.
     The Servicer, if other than the Seller, shall as soon as practicable upon
     demand deliver to the Seller all documents, instruments and records in its
     possession which evidence or relate to Receivables other than Purchased
     Receivables, and copies of documents, instruments and records in its
     possession which evidence or relate to Receivables other than Purchased
     Receivables. The Servicer unconditionally and absolutely agrees to take any
     and all action requested by the Managing Facility Agent in connection with
     the exercise by the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers of their
     rights under subsection 8.2, 11.11, 11.12 or 11.13.

                                       77

(c)  With respect to any L/C Receivable the related letter of credit of which
     expires on the last date of the Contract related thereto, the Servicer
     shall prepare any drawing request required under such letter of credit and,
     if the payment due under such Contract is not made by the drawing deadline
     under such letter of credit, the Servicer shall make a drawing thereunder.
     Further, if the expiration date of any letter of credit related to any L/C
     Receivable is not extended when a Principal Balance of such Receivable
     remains outstanding, the Servicer shall, or shall cause the Seller or
     Raytheon Credit to, draw the aggregate available amount under such letter
     of credit prior to the expiration thereof.

     3.3 Servicer Reports. The Servicer shall deliver to the Managing Facility
Agent, with sufficient copies for each Purchaser:

(a)  Within 45 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of
     the Servicer, beginning with the first such quarter to end after the
     Closing Date, a report with respect to such fiscal quarter, certified by a
     Responsible Officer (if the Seller is then the Servicer) or by the
     president or officer responsible for financial affairs of the Servicer, to
     the effect that the Servicer has reviewed its servicing, administration and
     collection of Purchased Receivables, Collections with respect thereto and
     the related Contracts and Financed Aircraft, that no errors and
     irregularities were detected with respect to such servicing, administration
     and collection and that such servicing, collection and administration was
     conducted in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement;
     and

(b)  Within 90 days after the last day of each fiscal year of the Servicer, a
     report of a firm of nationally recognized independent public accountants
     (which may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or
     Raytheon or any Affiliate thereof) to the effect that (i) such firm has
     made a study and evaluation in accordance with generally accepted auditing
     standards of the Servicer's internal accounting controls relative to the
     servicing, administration and collection of Purchased Receivables,
     Collections with respect thereto and the related Contracts and Financed
     Aircraft, that such system of internal accounting controls then in effect
     with respect to such servicing procedures performed by the Servicer was
     sufficient for the prevention and detection of errors and irregularities
     and that such servicing, administration and collection of Purchased
     Receivables, Collections with respect thereto and the related Contracts and
     Financed Aircraft was conducted in compliance with the provisions of this
     Agreement and (ii) such firm has compared the mathematical calculations of
     amounts set forth on a statistically representative sample of Settlement
     Statements delivered with respect to each Settlement Period during such
     fiscal year with the Servicer's computer reports and other documents which
     were the source of such amounts and that on the basis of such comparison,
     such amounts are in agreement, except in either case as may be described in
     such report.

                                       78

     3.4 Servicing Fee. As compensation for its servicing activities hereunder
and reimbursement for its reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses incurred
in connection with its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to
receive a per annum servicing fee of .85% of the Outstanding Purchase Price,
payable monthly in arrears on each Settlement Date (other than a Special
Settlement Date) in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price at the end of the
Accrual Period preceding the Settlement Date on which the Servicing Fee is paid.
The Servicing Fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed during such Accrual Period.

     3.5 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the
Servicer. The Servicer shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person
or convey or transfer its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to
any Person, unless:

(i)  the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Servicer is
     merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer the
     properties and assets of the Servicer substantially as an entirety shall
     be, if the Servicer is not the surviving entity, organized and existing
     under the laws of the United States of America or any State or the District
     of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by an agreement in form reasonably
     satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent and the Required Purchasers,
     the performance of every covenant and obligation of the Servicer hereunder,
     and shall benefit from all the rights granted to the Servicer, as
     applicable hereunder;

(ii) the Servicer has delivered to the Managing Facility Agent a certificate of
     the Chief Financial Officer or President thereof and an opinion of counsel
     (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Facility
     Agent) each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer
     and such agreement comply with this Section 3.5 and that all conditions
     precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been
     complied with and, in the case of the opinion of counsel, that such
     agreement is legal, valid and binding with respect to the Servicer; and

     3.6 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. Neither the
Servicer (except as otherwise provided herein) nor any of the directors or
officers or employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to
the Managing Facility Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents or the Purchasers or
any other Person for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action pursuant to this Agreement whether arising from express or implied duties
under this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect
the Servicer against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
duties or by reason of its willful misconduct hereunder or by reason of Section
3.7. The Servicer and any director or officer or employee or agent of the
Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly
executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.

     3.7 Indemnification of the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent, the
Administrative Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents and each Purchaser. The
Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, the Managing Facility
Agent, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser from and against any loss,
liability, expense, damage or injury suffered or sustained by reason of any
acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions of the Servicer with respect to
activities of the Seller or the Purchasers for which the Servicer is responsible
pursuant to this Agreement, including those arising from acts or omissions of
the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to any
judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs or
expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened
action, proceeding or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Servicer
shall not indemnify the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative
Agent, any Co-Administrative Agent or any Purchaser if such acts, omissions or
alleged acts constitute fraud, gross negligence or breach of fiduciary duty by
such Person; (ii) the Servicer shall not indemnify the Seller, the Managing
Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents or any
Purchaser for any liabilities, costs or expenses with respect to any action
taken by or at the request of any Purchasers, the Managing Facility Agent, the
Administrative Agent, any Co-Administrative Agent, any Co-Agent or any Agent;
(iii) the Servicer shall not indemnify the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent,
the Administrative Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents or any Purchaser as to
any losses, claims or damages incurred by any of them in their capacities as
investors, including without limitation losses incurred as a result of Defaulted
Receivables which are written off as uncollectible; and (iv) the Servicer shall
not indemnify the Seller, the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent,
the Co-Administrative Agents or any Purchaser for any liabilities, costs or
expenses of any such Person arising under any tax law, including without
limitation any federal, state or local income or franchise taxes or any other
tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest or penalties with respect
thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) required to be paid by
any such Person in connection herewith to any taxing authority. The provisions
of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by an injured party
subject to the limitations hereof.

     The obligations of the Servicer under this subsection 3.7 shall survive the
payment in full of the obligations hereunder.

                                       80

     3.8 The Servicer Not to Resign. The Servicer shall not resign from the
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that (i)
the performance of its duties hereunder is or becomes impermissible under
applicable law and (ii) there is no reasonable action which the Servicer could
take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under
applicable law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the
Servicer shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above by an opinion of counsel
(satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent and its counsel) to such effect
delivered to the Managing Facility Agent. No such resignation shall become
effective until a successor Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and
obligations of the Servicer hereunder. Any delegation of duties permitted under
subsection 3.1 shall not relieve the Servicer of its liability and
responsibility with respect to such duties, and shall not constitute a
resignation within the meaning of this subsection 3.8.

     3.9 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the
Contracts. The Servicer shall provide to the Managing Facility Agent access to
the documentation regarding the Purchased Receivables (including the Contracts)
and the related Financed Aircraft, such access being afforded without charge but
only (i) upon reasonable request, (ii) during normal business hours, (iii)
subject to the Servicer's normal security and confidentiality procedures and
(iv) at offices designated by the Servicer.

     3.10 Marking of Records. The Servicer shall mark the Contract files with a
legend (or, in the case of computer tapes and disks, other appropriate
electronic mark or tag) that such Purchased Receivables have been sold to the
Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser.

     3.11 Additional Covenants of the Servicer. The Servicer hereby covenants
that:

(a)  Contract Files. The Servicer will, at its own cost and expense, maintain
     all Contract files in its possession in trust for the Seller, the Managing
     Facility Agent and the Purchasers and in accordance with the Credit and
     Collection Policy and customary standards in the aircraft finance industry.
     Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Servicer
     will not dispose of any such items in any manner which is inconsistent with
     the performance of its obligations as the Servicer pursuant to this
     Agreement and will not dispose of any Contract except as contemplated by
     this Agreement.

(b)  Compliance with Law. The Servicer will comply, in all material respects,
     with all laws and regulations of any Governmental Authority applicable to
     the Servicer, the Contracts related to the Purchased Receivables, the
     related Financed Aircraft and the Contract Files or any part thereof;
     provided that the Servicer may contest any such law or regulation in any
     reasonable manner which will not materially and adversely affect the value
     of (or the rights of the Managing Facility Agent or the Purchasers, with
     respect to) the Purchased Receivables and related Financed Aircraft.

(c)  Preservation of Security Interest. The Servicer will execute and file such
     financing and continuation statements and any other documents reasonably
     requested by the Managing Facility Agent to be filed or which may be
     required by any law or regulation of any Governmental Authority to preserve
     and protect fully the interest of the Managing Facility Agent and the
     Purchasers in, to and under the Purchased Receivables and related Financed
     Aircraft (in each case as contemplated by the other provisions of this
     Agreement).

                                       81

(d)  Obligations with Respect to Contracts; Modifications. The Servicer will
     duly fulfill and comply with, in all material respects, all obligations on
     the part of the Seller to be fulfilled or complied with under or in
     connection with each Contract related to Purchased Receivables and will do
     nothing to impair the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers
     in, to and under the Purchased Receivables and the related Financed
     Aircraft. The Servicer will perform such obligations under the Contracts
     and will not change or modify the Contracts, except as otherwise provided
     in subsection 7.1(b)(iv) of this Agreement.

(e)  No Bankruptcy Petition. Prior to the date that is one year and one day
     after the payment in full of all amounts owing hereunder, the Servicer will
     not institute against the Seller, or join any other Person in instituting
     against the Seller, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency
     or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceedings under the laws of
     the United States or any state of the United States. This Section 3.11(e)
     will survive the termination of this Agreement.

     4.1 Representations and Warranties Relating to the Seller. To induce the
Purchasers to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Receivables the
Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Managing Facility Agent and each

     conduct of its business requires such qualification except to the extent
     that failure so to qualify could not reasonably be expected to have a
     Material Adverse Effect and (iv) is in compliance with all Requirements of
     Law (whether or not the determination of any arbitrator, court or other
     Governmental Authority has been appealed and is final) except to the extent
     that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate,
     reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)  Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The Seller has the
     corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to execute and deliver,
     and to perform its obligations under, this Agreement, each Assignment, each

     and each Assignment, FAA Assignment and Foreign Assignment will be, duly
     executed and delivered on behalf of the Seller. This Agreement constitutes,
     and each Assignment, FAA Assignment and Foreign Assignment when executed
     and delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
     Seller enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except
     as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
     reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of
     creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether
     enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

(c)  No Legal Bar. Each sale and purchase and each substitution to be made
     hereunder, the use of the proceeds of any such purchase and sale, each
     granting or assigning of the Liens in connection with any such purchase and
     sale or substitution and the execution, delivery and performance of this
     Agreement and each other Purchase Document to which it is a party will not
     violate the Seller's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any
     Requirement of Law (including, but not limited to, bulk transfer or similar
     statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction) or
     Contractual Obligation of the Seller and will not result in, or require,
     the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its properties or revenues
     pursuant to the Seller's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any
     such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation, other than the Liens in
     favor of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers created hereby.

     before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending by or against
     the Seller or, to the Seller's knowledge, pending against RAC, or
     threatened by or against the Seller or RAC, or against any of their
     respective properties or revenues (i) with respect to this Agreement or any
     other Purchase Document to which the Seller is a party or any of the
     transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (ii) which could reasonably
     be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e)  No Default. Neither the Seller nor, to the Seller's knowledge, RAC is in
     default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any
     respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
     Effect.

(f)  Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any purchase will be used
     for "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin stock" within the respective
     meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the Board of
     Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time
     hereafter in effect or for any purpose which violates the provisions of the
     Regulations of such Board of Governors. If requested by any Purchaser or
     the Managing Facility Agent, the Seller will furnish to the Managing
     Facility Agent and each Purchaser a statement to the foregoing effect in
     conformity with the requirements of FR Form U-1 referred to in said

     Entity has incurred any liability with respect to any Plan (other than
     contributions and payments required to be made in a timely fashion under
     the terms of such Plan which were so made), where a failure to comply or
     such liability could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
     Effect. Neither the Seller nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become
     subject to any liability under ERISA if the Seller or any such Commonly
     Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans
     as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this
     representation is made or deemed made which could reasonably be expected to
     have a Material Adverse Effect.

(h)  Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. The Seller is not an "investment
     company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment company", within the
     meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Seller is

     of the Seller and the offices where the Seller keeps all its books, records
     and documents evidencing the Purchased Receivables and the related

     subsection 11.2 (or, in the case of books, records and documents evidencing
     the Purchased Receivables, at such other locations, notified to the
     Managing Facility Agent in accordance with subsection 11.2, in
     jurisdictions where all action required by subsection 6.1(l) has been taken
     and completed).

(j)  Information. All information set forth in the Syndication Materials is
     accurate in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date and does
     not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
     material fact of which the Seller knows or should have known which is
     necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the
     circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

     4.2 Representations and Warranties Relating to the Receivables. To induce
the Purchasers to purchase the Receivables the Seller hereby represents and
warrants to the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser with respect to
Receivables being purchased or substituted on each Settlement Date (including
each Special Settlement Date) or the Closing Date that:

(a)  Eligible Receivables. Each Purchased Receivable is on its date of purchase

(b)  Ownership or Perfected First Security Interest. Upon each purchase or
     substitution, the Purchasers will acquire a valid and perfected first
     priority ownership or security interest in each Purchased Receivable, the
     Collections with respect thereto and each related Contract and, except with
     respect to any Unsecured Receivable described in clause (i), (iii) or (v)
     of the definition of "Unsecured Receivable", the related Financed Aircraft,
     free and clear of any Lien other than (i) with respect to such Purchased
     Receivable and the related Contracts, the Lien in favor of the
     Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers and any
     Permitted Receivable Lien on such Purchased Receivable and related
     Contracts, (ii) solely with respect to a Financed Aircraft, (u) the Lien
     created by the Obligor (including an Affiliate Obligor) in favor of
     Raytheon Credit and assigned to the Seller, (v) with respect to Existing
     Certified Receivables, prior to the Certified Opinion Delivery Date, the
     Lien created by the Obligor in favor of Raytheon Credit (but solely to the
     extent a filing is required in a foreign jurisdiction to transfer such Lien
     to the Seller and such filing has not been made), (w) with respect to all
     Existing Receivables, prior to the FAA Filing Date, the Lien created by the
     Obligor in favor of Raytheon Credit (but solely to the extent a filing is
     required with the FAA to transfer such Lien to the Seller and such filing
     has not been made), (x) the assignment of each such Lien by the Seller in
     favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers
     or (y) solely with respect to a Lease Receivable, the Lien created by the
     Seller in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
     Purchasers, and (z) any Permitted Aircraft Lien on such Financed Aircraft;
     and no effective document or instrument covering any Purchased Receivable
     or Collections with respect thereto or the related Contract(s) or Financed
     Aircraft is on file or of record in any recording office (including, but
     not limited to, the FAA Registry or the comparable registry with respect to
     any Foreign Receivable (excluding any L/C Receivable)) except (1) the
     filings with the appropriate foreign registry with respect to Affiliate
     Receivables in order to perfect the Lien in favor of the Seller in the
     Applicable Leases and Financed Aircraft related to such Affiliate
     Receivables and (2) the filing with the FAA Registry or the comparable
     registry with respect to any Foreign Receivable or any Affiliate Receivable
     (excluding any L/C Receivable) in order to perfect the Lien encumbering a
     Financed Aircraft and any related Applicable Leases which was granted by
     the related Obligor in favor of the Seller and (3) as may be filed in favor
     of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers in
     accordance with this Agreement.

(c)  Assignment. The information set forth on Annex I to an Assignment, with
     respect to Eligible Receivables to be purchased or substituted on a
     Settlement Date or purchased on the Closing Date, is true and correct on
     and as of such Settlement Date or the Closing Date.

(d)  No Material Adverse Change. Since the date of the last Settlement
     Statement, there has been no material adverse change in the collectibility
     of the Purchased Receivables taken as a whole.

                                       85

(e)  Substituted Receivables. If on any Settlement Date the Seller sells or
     substitutes less than substantially all the Eligible Receivables available
     for purchase or substitution on such Settlement Date, the Seller or the
     Servicer has not utilized any selection procedure intended to result in a
     selection of Purchased Receivables to be purchased or substituted on such
     Settlement Date which could be materially adverse to the rights of the
     Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers as of such Settlement Date.

(f)  No Violation. Immediately following each purchase or substitution, the
     Seller will not have violated the limitations contained in subsection 2.7.

(g)  Entitlement to Section 1110 Benefits. With respect to each Purchased
     Receivable which is a Commuter Receivable (other than a Foreign Receivable
     and an Affiliate Receivable), Raytheon Credit or the Seller shall be
     entitled to the benefits of Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code (11 USC ss.
     1110) with respect to each Contract and repossession of the related
     Financed Aircraft under which each such Purchased Receivable arises, and
     the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers,
     pursuant to subsection 11.13, shall be entitled to such Section 1110
     benefits of Raytheon Credit and the Seller after the occurrence and during
     the continuance of a Specified Amortization Event or in connection with any
     action taken pursuant to subsection 11.11(c) or subsection 11.12(b).

(h)  Stipulated Aircraft Value. The Stipulated Aircraft Value with respect to
     any Financed Aircraft as set forth in any lease Contract related to a
     Receivable at any time is equal to or greater than the Outstanding Balance
     of such Receivable at such time assuming all current payments are made.

               (i) Finance Charge Collections. The Finance Charge Collections
         have been calculated in compliance with the Credit and Collection
         Policy.

     4.3 Representations and Warranties Relating to the Servicer. To induce the
Purchasers to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Receivables the
Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Managing Facility Agent and each

     the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of

     to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iv) is in compliance with all
     Requirements of Law (whether or not the determination of any arbitrator,
     court or other Governmental Authority has been appealed and is final)
     except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the
     aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)  Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The Servicer has

     other Purchase Document to which it is a party and has taken all necessary

     with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of
     this Agreement or any other Purchase Document to which it is a party. This
     Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Servicer.
     This Agreement constitutes, and each other Purchase Document to which it is
     a party, when executed and delivered by it, will constitute, a legal, valid
     and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable against the Servicer in
     accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by
     applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar
     laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by
     general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings
     in equity or at law).

(c)  No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
     each other Purchase Document to which it is a party will not violate the
     Servicer's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any Requirement of
     Law (including, but not limited to, bulk transfer or similar statutory
     provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction) or Contractual
     Obligation of the Servicer and will not result in, or require, the creation
     or imposition of any Lien on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to
     the Servicer's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any such
     Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation.

(d)  No Material Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or
     before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending by or against

     respective properties or revenues (i) with respect to this Agreement or any

     Entity has incurred any liability with respect to any Plan (other than
     contributions and payments required to be made in a timely fashion under
     the terms of such Plan which were so made), where a failure to comply or
     such liability could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
     Effect. Neither the Servicer nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would
     become subject to any liability under ERISA if the Servicer or any such
     Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all
     Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the
     date on which this representation is made or deemed made which could
     reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                       94

         Purchaser whose undivided interests are being reduced (each, a
         "Reducing Purchaser") in accordance with the foregoing (such amount for
         each such Purchaser, its "Pro Rata Credit"); the amounts payable by
         each Purchaser whose undivided interests are being increased or created
         (each, an "Increasing Purchaser") in accordance with the foregoing
         (such amount for each such Purchaser, its "Pro Rata Debit"), in each
         case as a result of the foregoing sales and purchases; and the amount
         of each Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price immediately after giving

         amount of such Purchaser's Pro Rata Credit. Such sales and purchases
         shall be effective on the Amendment Effective Date without further act
         of assignment.

                           Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this
         Agreement, on the first Settlement Date following the Amendment
         Effective Date, the Managing Facility Agent shall pay to each
         Purchaser, including each Withdrawing Purchaser, from funds received
         from the Seller pursuant to subsection 2.17, interest on such
         Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price for each day of the preceding
         Accrual Period prior to the Amendment Effective Date; it being
         understood that the Outstanding Purchase Price of some of the
         Purchasers will be re-allocated on the Amendment Effective Date as
         provided in the preceding paragraph. For the period beginning on the
         Amendment Effective Date and ending on the next Settlement Date which
         is not a Special Settlement Date (the "Amendment Accrual Period"), the
         Outstanding Purchase Price shall bear interest at the Interbank Rate
         for the Amendment Accrual Period. Notwithstanding the provisions of
         subsection 2.24 hereof, the Seller shall be obligated to indemnify and
         hold each Purchaser harmless from any loss or expense arising from
         interest or fees payable by a Purchaser to lenders of funds obtained by
         it or them to purchase or maintain an interest in the Purchased
         Receivables with respect to which the Note Rate is determined by
         reference to the LIBO Rate; provided that, the Managing Facility Agent
         shall calculate any such loss or expense on behalf of each Purchaser
         based upon the difference between the Note Rate in effect on the
         Settlement Date immediately preceding the Amendment Effective Date and
         the Interbank Rate for the Amendment Accrual Period, which calculation
         shall be binding and conclusive with respect to each Purchaser and each
         Withdrawing Purchaser.

                                       95

                  (iii) if an Amortization Event shall have occurred and be
         continuing, no Modification shall be made without the prior consent of
         each Purchaser if the effect thereof would be to extend the Final
         Payment Date of a Receivable beyond the then latest Final Payment Date
         of all Purchased Receivables;

                                      104

                  (iv) the Seller shall not modify the payment terms of any
         Purchased Receivable except (x) in accordance with the Credit and
         Collection Policy, except that, (A) with respect to any GA Receivable,
         the Seller shall not modify the payment terms of any such Purchased
         Receivable more than once after the Closing Date or Settlement Date on
         which such Receivable is sold or substituted pursuant to this Agreement
         or an Existing Agreement, and (B) with respect to a Commuter
         Receivable, (1) no more than an aggregate of 12 monthly principal
         payments may be deferred during the term of any Contract and (2)
         subject to the immediately following sentence, the Final Payment Date
         may not be extended by more than six months and, (y) so long as no
         Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Servicer may
         when necessary to prevent a possible default by the Obligor under any
         Contract or in order to enhance the collectibility of any Receivable,
         defer any scheduled payment of principal, in part or in whole, to a
         later scheduled payment date under such Contract. If, after giving
         effect to the extension of the Final Payment Date of a Purchased
         Receivable pursuant to clause (iv)(x)(B)(2) of the foregoing proviso,
         such extended Final Payment Date exceeds, (I) so long as no Rating
         Event has occurred and is continuing, 13 years from the date of such
         extension and, (II) during the continuance of a Rating Event, 10 years
         from the date of such extension, then on the immediately following
         Settlement Date (or if such date is a Settlement Date, then on such
         date) the Seller shall deposit in the Concentration Account an amount
         equal to the aggregate Principal Collections then scheduled to be paid
         after such 13th year or 10th year, as the case may be, plus, if a
         Trigger Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, accrued and
         unpaid interest on the amount so deposited at the rate under the
         related Contract except to the extent (without duplication) of any
         payment made pursuant to subsection 2.18 for the Settlement Period
         during which such interest accrued and was not paid by the Obligor
         under such Contract. The amount of any such deposit shall be applied
         and distributed in accordance with subsections 2.15 and 2.16 provided,
         however, that any Purchased Receivable so modified shall be deemed an
         Extended Term Receivable for purposes of subsection 2.15;

                  (v) any Modification made in accordance with this subsection
         7.1(b) shall not cause the Principal Balance of the applicable
         Purchased Receivable to exceed 50% of the Low Wholesale Value of the
         related Financed Aircraft; and

                  (vi) the Seller shall not make any Modification which permits
         the transfer of registered ownership in any Financed Aircraft without
         the consent of the Required Purchasers, unless after giving effect to
         such transfer (and any payments made under the Contract at the time of
         transfer) the related Receivable would satisfy on the date of transfer
         the criteria contained in the definition of Eligible Receivable;
         provided that the provisions of this subsection 7.1(b)(vi) shall not
         apply to a transfer by an Obligor to a wholly-owned Affiliate of such
         Obligor.

                                      105

(c)  Change in Business or Credit and Collection Policy. Make any material
     change in the character of its business or, without the prior written
     consent of the Required Purchasers, notify any Obligor to remit payments to
     a location other than that to which such payment would be remitted on the
     Closing Date; make any change in the Credit and Collection Policy without
     prior notice to the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser; provided
     that, without the prior consent of the Required Purchasers, the Seller
     shall not make or permit to be made any such change to the Credit and
     Collection Policy if such change could reasonably be expected to materially
     adversely affect the collectibility or maturity of any Purchased Receivable
     or the interests of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers in any
     Purchased Receivable, the related Contract and Financed Aircraft or the
     Collections with respect thereto.

(d)  No Actions against Obligors. Except in accordance with the Credit and
     Collection Policy, commence or settle any legal action to enforce
     collection of any Purchased Receivable.

(e)  Security Interest to Remain in Force. Release, in whole or in part, any
     Financed Aircraft, or any other collateral securing or guarantee of the
     related Contract (including, but not limited to, any letter of credit
     related thereto issued in favor of the Seller), from the security interest
     granted by such Contract except, that, the Seller may or may permit the
     Servicer to, at its or the Servicer's own expense, (x) substitute engines
     in accordance with subsection 7.1(j) and (y) substitute other parts (other
     than airframes) for any of the parts on any Financed Aircraft as Seller or
     Servicer may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business;
     provided, however, that for purposes of this clause (y), (i) no such
     substitution(s), individually or in the aggregate, shall diminish the
     utility or remaining useful life of such Financed Aircraft, or materially
     diminish the value, or impair the condition or airworthiness, thereof,
     below the utility, remaining useful life, condition, airworthiness, or
     value thereof immediately prior to such substitution, (ii) no such
     substitution shall affect adversely the Lien on such Financed Aircraft
     (other than the removed avionics) in favor of the Administrative Agent for
     the benefit of the Purchasers (as such Lien was in effect immediately prior
     to such substitution), (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have a Lien on
     the substitute parts with a priority no less than the priority of the Lien
     in favor of the Administrative Agent on the removed parts and (iv) the new
     part shall not be subject to any Liens other than Permitted Aircraft Liens.
     Upon substitution of any engine or other parts on any Financed Aircraft,
     the Lien thereon of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Purchasers
     shall, without the requirement for any further act, be automatically
     released.

     assets (except for sales and substitutions of Purchased Receivables

     thereto and the related Contracts and Financed Aircraft, with any Affiliate
     unless such transaction is otherwise permitted under this Agreement, is in
     the ordinary course of the Seller's business and is upon fair and
     reasonable terms no less favorable to the Seller than it would obtain in a
     comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

(h)  Fiscal Year. Permit the fiscal year of the Seller to end on a day other
     than December 31 without 60 days' prior notice thereof to the Managing

     provides.

(j)  Substitution of Engines. Permit any engine to be substituted for an engine
     originally annexed to any Financed Aircraft related to a Purchased

     other liability whatsoever, except (i) Indebtedness owing from time to time
     to Raytheon Credit and incurred to finance a portion of the Purchase Price

     of all amounts owing to the Purchasers, (ii) obligations incurred under
     this Agreement and (iii) other liabilities incurred in the ordinary course
     of business.

(l)  Guarantees. Become or remain liable, directly or contingently, in
     connection with any Indebtedness or other liability of any other Person,
     whether by guarantee, endorsement (other than endorsements of negotiable

     agreement to purchase or repurchase, agreement to supply or advance funds,
     or otherwise.

(m)  Investments. Make or suffer to exist any loans or advances to, or extend
     any credit to, or make any investments (by way of transfer of property,

     therefrom, the Seller may declare and pay dividends on its capital stock.

(o)  Agreements. Become a party to, or permit any of its properties to be bound

     Purchasers), to enforce and protect the rights and remedies of the Managing

                           SECTION 9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller hereby agrees, subject to the
limitations set forth in this Section 9, to indemnify the Managing Facility
Agent, each Administrative Agent, each Co-Administrative Agent, each Purchaser

collectively, "Indemnified Amounts") awarded against or incurred by any
Indemnified Person which arise directly or indirectly from:

(i)  any Purchased Receivable which is not an Eligible Receivable at the date of
     its purchase or substitution (which date shall be, for each Existing
     Receivable, the date such Receivable was purchased or substituted under the
     Existing Agreement applicable to such Existing Receivable) or which is an
     Ineligible Receivable as defined in clause (b)(z) of the definition of
     "Ineligible Receivable";

                                      114

     Receivable, Unsecured Foreign Receivable, Existing Uncertified Foreign
     Receivable or L/C Receivable, (B) with respect to a Registerable Lease
     Receivable, of the Administrative Agent to have a valid, perfected and

     maintain in any Purchaser a perfected, valid and enforceable first priority
     ownership interest in any Purchased Receivable or (2) to create and
     maintain in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of
     the Purchasers a valid, perfected and first priority security interest in
     such Receivable;

     or of the Unaffiliated Foreign Lessee to the payment of any amount under
     its Applicable Lease (including, without limitation, a defense based on
     such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and
     binding obligation of such Obligor or Unaffiliated Foreign Lessee
     enforceable against it in accordance with its terms or any claims based on
     the related Financed Aircraft not conforming to any express or implied
     warranty);

(vii) any failure of the Seller or the Servicer to perform its duties or
     obligations in any capacity in accordance with the provisions of this
     Agreement, including, without limitation, the turnover of amounts pursuant
     to subsection 2.14 or 2.15;

                                      115

     (1) in any material respect with any provision, covenant or other promise
     required to be observed by any such Person under any Contract related to
     any Purchased Receivable or (2), except as otherwise permitted by this
     Agreement, with all provisions of the Credit and Collection Policy in all
     material respects, which failure reduces or impairs the rights of the
     Administrative Agent or any Purchaser with respect to any Purchased
     Receivable or the value of any Purchased Receivable including, but not
     limited to, failure to comply with those provisions of the Credit and
     Collection Policy relating to the cancellation, extension, amendment,
     modification, compromise or settlement of any Purchased Receivable or any
     term thereof, the extension, amendment, modification or waiver of any term
     or condition of any Contract related thereto, the sale, pledge or
     assignment of, or grant of security interest in, any Purchased Receivable
     or the Contract or Financed Aircraft related thereto, any change in the
     character of its business or in the Credit and Collection Policy or the
     commencement or settlement of any legal action to enforce collection of any
     Purchased Receivable;

(x)  any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to any use of the
     proceeds of any purchase;

(xi) any casualty loss, property loss or product liability related to (i) the
     Purchasers' ownership of the Purchased Receivables or (ii) the Purchasers'
     security interest in the related Financed Aircraft;

(xii) the failure of any Purchased Receivable at any time after its sale or
     substitution hereunder or, with respect to the Existing Receivables, under
     the applicable Existing Agreement to satisfy the criteria under clause (k)
     or (l) (including, without limitation, the failure of a Permitted
     Receivable Lien or a Permitted Aircraft Lien to be released or bonded in
     accordance with the definition of each such term) of the definition of
     "Eligible Receivable" (notwithstanding that such criteria are required to
     be satisfied pursuant to such definition on the date a Purchased Receivable
     is sold or substituted); or

(xiii) the execution, delivery, performance, administration and enforcement of
     any of the Purchase Documents.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in subsection 9.1(a),
     and with respect to any event of the type described in clause (vi) or (xii)
     of subsection 9.1(a), the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative
     Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents and the Purchasers shall be deemed to
     have incurred Indemnified Amounts with respect to a Purchased Receivable as
     a result of events described in such clause (vi) or (xii) on the earlier of
     (1) the date on which the Seller becomes aware of the event or events of
     the type described in either of such clauses or (2) the date on which the
     Managing Facility Agent notifies the Seller that the event described in
     either of such clauses has occurred.

                                      116

(c)  Indemnification payments required to be made hereunder shall be payable at
     any time on demand by the Managing Facility Agent at the request of the
     applicable Indemnified Persons and shall be promptly deposited in the
     Concentration Account and paid out to such Indemnified Persons pro rata
     with respect to the Indemnified Amounts incurred and requested by such
     Indemnified Persons.

(d)  The agreements in this Section 9 shall survive the completion of the
     Amortization Period.

     9.2 Limitations of Seller's Liability. () The Seller shall not be required
to indemnify an Indemnified Person pursuant to subsection 9.1 for:

(i)  Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence or
     willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Person; or

(ii) recourse for non-payment by an Obligor (except as otherwise provided in
     this Agreement) for Defaulted Receivables; or

(iii) any income, franchise or other similar taxes imposed on any Indemnified
     Person as a result of any of the indemnities provided in subsection 9.1(a)
     arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or in respect of any
     Receivables or any Contract; or

(iv) Indemnified Amounts resulting from actions taken or failed to be taken by a
     successor Servicer that is not an Affiliate of the Seller appointed
     pursuant to subsection 3.1(b).

(b)  Each of the Managing Facility Agent, each Administrative Agent, each
     Co-Administrative Agent and each Purchaser hereby waives, to the maximum
     extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover as
     Indemnified Amounts under this Section 9 any special, exemplary, punitive
     or consequential damages; provided that the waiver contained in this
     subsection 9.2(b) shall not extend to, and the Managing Facility Agent,
     each Administrative Agent, each Co-Administrative Agent and each Purchaser
     does not waive, any right to claim or recover from the Seller any special,
     exemplary, punitive or consequential damages for which an Indemnified
     Person is liable to any Person (other than an Affiliate of such Indemnified
     Person).

     9.3 Proceedings against Indemnified Person. () If any action, suit or
proceeding shall be brought against one or more of the Indemnified Persons in
respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Seller, such Indemnified
Person shall, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of such action,
suit or proceeding, notify the Seller in writing, enclosing a copy of all papers
served upon such Indemnified Person; provided that the failure so to notify the
Seller shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under
subsection 9.1 except to the extent that the Seller is prejudiced by such
failure. The Seller may, and upon such Indemnified Person's request shall, at
the Seller's expense, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding, or
cause the same to be resisted or defended by counsel selected by the Seller. In
the event of any failure by the Seller to resist and defend such suit, action or
proceeding or cause the same to be resisted or defended by counsel reasonably


                                      117

satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, the Seller shall pay all reasonable
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney's fees and
disbursements) incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with such suit,
action or proceeding. In the event that the Seller does assume the defense of
such suit, action or proceeding, the Seller shall have the sole authority to
negotiate, compromise and settle such claim; provided that such Indemnified
Person shall have the right to employ counsel to represent it in connection with
any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by such Indemnified Person
against the Seller under such subsection 9.1 if, in the reasonable judgment of
such Indemnified Person, such Indemnified Person may have a conflict with the
Seller, such Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be represented by separate
counsel, and in that event the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall
be paid by the Seller. In any event, the Indemnified Person shall retain the
right to employ its own counsel, but the Indemnified Person shall, except as
otherwise provided in this subsection 9.3, bear and shall be solely responsible
for its own costs and expenses.

(b)  The Seller shall be subrogated to an Indemnified Person's rights in any
     matter with respect to which the Seller has actually reimbursed such
     Indemnified Person for any amounts for which the Indemnified Person claims
     indemnification hereunder after the Amortization Period ends.

        SECTION 10. THE MANAGING FACILITY AGENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     10.1 Appointment. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably designates and appoints
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, as the Managing Facility
Agent of such Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents
and each such Purchaser irrevocably authorizes Bank of America National Trust
and Savings Association, as the Managing Facility Agent for such Purchaser, to
take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the
other Purchase Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as
are expressly delegated to the Managing Facility Agent by the terms of this
Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, together with such other powers as
are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably designates
and appoints each of Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association and
UBS AG, Stamford Branch (as successor to Swiss Bank Corporation, Stamford
Branch, as successor to Swiss Bank Corporation, New York Branch) as
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents and
to be, or continue to be, jointly or individually, the named party or the
secured party for the benefit of the Purchasers with respect to the Receivables
and the related Aircraft and in and on all presently existing or hereafter
executed financing statements, assignments and continuation statements, FAA
Assignments and other FAA filings and similar filings in foreign jurisdictions
and security interests granted under this Agreement or any predecessor agreement
(including pursuant to Sections 11.11 and 11.12) relating to the Receivables and
the related Aircraft. Each Administrative Agent shall act solely in accordance
with the instructions of the Managing Facility Agent (including pursuant to
Sections 11.10, 11.11 and 11.12) which in the case of the Old Administrative
Agent shall be deemed to include any action taken by the Managing Facility Agent
pursuant to a power of attorney granted by the Old Administrative Agent in favor
of the Managing Facility Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Agreement, the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative
Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set
forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Purchaser, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall
be read into this Agreement or any other Purchase Document or otherwise exist
against the Managing Facility Agent or either Administrative Agent.

                                      118

     10.2 Delegation of Duties. The Managing Facility Agent and each
Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the
other Purchase Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be
entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
The Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care.

     10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Managing Facility Agent, each
Administrative Agent, nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any
action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Purchase Document (except for its or
such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in
any manner to any of the Purchasers for any recitals, statements,
representations or warranties made by the Seller, the Servicer or Raytheon or
any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Purchase Document
or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by the Managing Facility Agent or either
Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Purchase Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Purchase Document
or for any failure of the Seller, the Servicer or Raytheon to perform their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Managing Facility Agent and
each Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Purchaser to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of (except delivery to it of items
required by Section 5 hereof to be delivered to it), this Agreement or any other
Purchase Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Seller,
the Servicer or Raytheon. Without limiting the foregoing, the Old Administrative
Agent shall not have any liability for (i) any action, or omission to act, which
is made in accordance with the instructions of the Managing Facility Agent or
(ii) the failure to act if it has not received any instructions from the
Managing Facility Agent.

     10.4 Reliance by Managing Facility Agent and Administrative Agent. The
Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice,
consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or
teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including,
without limitation, counsel to the Seller, the Servicer or Raytheon),
independent accountants and other experts selected by the Managing Facility
Agent or such Administrative Agent. The Managing Facility Agent and each
Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Purchase Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Purchasers as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the
Purchasers against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it
by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Managing Facility
Agent and each Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other
Purchase Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Purchasers or
the Majority Purchasers, as appropriate, and such request and any action taken
or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Purchaser.

                                      119

     10.5 Notice of Certain Events. Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor any
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of an Amortization Event, Discount Event, Rating Event, Remittance
Event or Ineligibility Event (each, an "Occurrence") hereunder unless the
Managing Facility Agent has received notice from a Purchaser, the Seller, the
Servicer, RAC or Raytheon referring to this Agreement, describing such
Occurrence and stating that such notice is a notice thereof. In the event that
the Managing Facility Agent receives such a notice, the Managing Facility Agent
shall promptly give notice thereof to the Purchasers. The Managing Facility
Agent shall take such action with respect to any Amortization Event as shall be
reasonably directed by the Majority Purchasers; provided that unless and until
the Managing Facility Agent shall have received such directions, the Managing
Facility Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain
from taking such action, with respect to any such Amortization Event as it shall
deem advisable in the best interests of the Purchasers.

     10.6 Non-Reliance on Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent, the
Co-Administrative Agents and the Purchasers. Each Purchaser expressly
acknowledges that neither the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative
Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents nor any of their officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations
or warranties to it and that no act by the Managing Facility Agent, either
Administrative Agent or the Co-Administrative Agents hereafter taken, including
any review of the affairs of the Seller, the Servicer or Raytheon, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Managing Facility
Agent, either Administrative Agent or the Co-Administrative Agents to any
Purchaser. Each Purchaser represents to the Managing Facility Agent, each
Administrative Agent and the Co-Administrative Agents that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative
Agent, the Co-Administrative Agents or any other Purchaser, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal
of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and
other condition and creditworthiness of the Seller, the Servicer and Raytheon
and made its own decision to make its purchases hereunder and enter into this
Agreement. Each Purchaser also represents that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent
or the Co-Administrative Agents or any Purchaser, and based on such documents
and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, and to make such
investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Seller, the Servicer and Raytheon. Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Purchasers by the Managing
Facility Agent hereunder, neither the Managing Facility Agent, either
Administrative Agent nor the Co-Administrative Agents shall have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Purchaser with any credit or other information
concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or
otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Seller or Raytheon which may
come into the possession of the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative
Agent or the Co-Administrative Agents or any of their officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

                                      120

     10.7 Indemnification. The Purchasers agree to indemnify the Managing
Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Seller or Raytheon and without limiting the
obligation of the Seller or Raytheon to do so), ratably according to the
respective amounts of their Commitments, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time
(including, without limitation, at any time after the Outstanding Purchase Price
is reduced to zero) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Managing
Facility Agent or either Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement, any other Purchase Document or any documents contemplated
by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Managing Facility Agent or either
Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided
that no Purchaser shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Managing Facility
Agent's or either Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The agreements in this subsection shall survive the reduction of the Outstanding
Purchase Price to zero and payment of all other amounts payable hereunder.

     10.8 Managing Facility Agent and Administrative Agent in Their Individual
Capacities. The Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent and their
respective Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally
engage in any kind of business with the Seller, the Servicer, RAC and Raytheon
and their Affiliates as though the Managing Facility Agent were not the Managing
Facility Agent, or such Administrative Agent was not an Administrative Agent,
hereunder and under the other Purchase Documents. With respect to purchases made
by it, the Managing Facility Agent and each Administrative Agent shall have the
same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents as
any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not the Managing
Facility Agent or an Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and the terms
"Purchaser" and "Purchasers" shall include the Managing Facility Agent and each
Administrative Agent, each in its individual capacity.

     10.9 Successor Managing Facility Agent or Administrative Agent. The
Managing Facility Agent may resign as Managing Facility Agent upon 30 days'
notice to the Purchasers and such resignation shall be effective upon the
earlier of (i) the expiration of such 30 day notice period and (ii) the
appointment of a successor Managing Facility Agent pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 10.9.; provided that, if a successor Managing Facility Agent shall
not have been appointed prior to the end of such 30 day notice period, the
Managing Facility Agent shall remain the Administrative Agent until a successor
Managing Facility Agent is appointed in accordance with this Section 10.9. If
the Managing Facility Agent shall resign as Managing Facility Agent under this
Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, then the Required Purchasers shall
appoint from among the Purchasers a successor agent for the Purchasers, which
successor agent shall, subject to the consent of the Seller and Raytheon (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), succeed to the rights, powers and
duties of the Managing Facility Agent including its rights powers and duties as
Administrative Agent hereunder, and the term "Managing Facility Agent" shall


                                      121

mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former
Managing Facility Agent's rights, powers and duties as Managing Facility Agent
and as an Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further
act or deed on the part of such former Managing Facility Agent or any of the
parties to this Agreement or any holder of an Assignment. After any retiring
Managing Facility Agent's resignation as Managing Facility Agent, the provisions
of this subsection shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted
to be taken by it while it was Managing Facility Agent under this Agreement and
the other Purchase Documents. The Old Administrative Agent shall have the right
to resign as an Administrative Agent in accordance with the letter, dated March
17, 1999, among the Old Administrative, Raytheon and the Managing Facility
Agent, relating to the Old Administrative Agent's term as an Administrative
Agent.

                            SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS

     11.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any other Purchase
Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Unless
otherwise specifically provided herein, with the written consent of the Majority
Purchasers, the Managing Facility Agent, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC and
Raytheon may, from time to time, enter into written amendments, supplements or
modifications hereto and to the other Purchase Documents for the purpose of
adding or deleting any provisions to this Agreement or the other Purchase
Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Purchasers, the Seller,
the Servicer, RAC, or Raytheon hereunder or thereunder or waiving, on such terms
and conditions as the Managing Facility Agent may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Purchase Documents;
provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or
modification shall (a) increase the Commitment of any Purchaser or extend the
Expiration Date or reduce the rate or amount of interest or any fee payable to
any Purchaser hereunder or extend (beyond the applicable period of grace) the
scheduled date for any payment or deposit by the Seller or the Servicer (if not
then the Seller) hereunder, in each case without the consent of the Purchaser
affected thereby, or (b) (i) amend, modify or waive any provision of this
subsection or reduce the percentage specified in or amend the definitions of
"Required Purchasers", or "Majority Purchasers", (ii) consent to the assignment
or transfer by the Seller of any rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the other Purchase Documents, (iii) take action with respect to any Purchased
Receivable pursuant to subsection 7.1(b)(iii), (iv) amend the criteria set forth
in the definition of "Eligible Receivable" or "Ineligible Receivable" or any
definition contained in either such definition if the effect thereof is to
decrease the Seller's or RAC's repurchase obligation, (v) after the occurrence
of a Rating Event release or reassign any material interest of the Purchasers in
the Financed Aircraft (except as provided in subsection 11.10), (vi) release
Raytheon as Guarantor under the Guarantee or make any material modification or
amendment to the Guarantee or release RAC from its obligations under the
Repurchase Agreement or make any material modification or amendment to the
Repurchase Agreement, (vii) release the interest of the Purchasers in the
Intercompany Purchase Agreement, (viii) amend the definition of "Repurchase

effect thereof is to decrease the Repurchase Obligation, (ix) amend, modify or
waive any provision of subsection 2.6, 2.18, 2.20(a) or 11.7(a), or (x) amend
the definition of "Purchase Price", without, in each case specified in this

waive any provision of Section 10 without the written consent of the then
Managing Facility Agent or (d) waive any Amortization Event (including, any
Trigger Amortization Event, any Specified Amortization Event or any Note Rate
Amortization Event) or its consequences without the written consent of the
Required Purchasers. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or
modification shall apply equally to each of the Purchasers and shall be binding
upon the Seller, the Servicer, the Purchasers and the Managing Facility Agent.
In the case of any waiver, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC, Raytheon, the
Purchasers and the Managing Facility Agent shall be restored to their former
position and rights hereunder and under any other Purchase Documents, and any
Amortization Event (including, any Trigger Amortization Event, any Specified
Amortization Event or any Note Rate Amortization Event) waived shall be deemed
to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Amortization Event, Trigger Amortization Event, Specified
Amortization Event or Note Rate Amortization Event, or impair any right
consequent thereon.

          Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section 11.1 no
          provision of the Agreement which affects the rights or obligations
          of the Old Administrative Agent shall be amended without the written
          consent of the Old Administrative Agent.

the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent or any Purchaser (each,
an "Indemnitee") with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from (i) the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (ii) legal
proceedings commenced against such Indemnitee by any security holder or creditor
thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder
or creditor solely in its capacity as such, or (iii) legal proceedings commenced

     11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Parties.

(a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
     Seller, the Purchasers, the Co-Administrative Agents, the Managing Facility
     Agent, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and
     assigns, except that (i) the Seller may not assign or transfer any of its
     rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
     consent of the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and each
     Purchaser and (ii) certain governmental authorities in foreign
     jurisdictions may require the completion of certain procedures in order for
     any such assignment to be effective with respect to the Foreign Receivables
     and the Affiliate Receivables.

                                      125

(b)  Any Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking
     business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or
     more banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in
     such Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, the Commitment of such
     Purchaser or any other interest of such Purchaser hereunder and under the
     other Purchase Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Purchaser of
     participating interests to a Participant, such Purchaser's obligations
     under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain
     unchanged, such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for the
     performance thereof, such Purchaser shall be the "Purchaser" for all
     purposes under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents, and the
     Seller and the Managing Facility Agent shall continue to deal solely and
     directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser's rights and
     obligations under this Agreement and the other Purchase Documents. The
     Seller agrees that, upon the occurrence and continuance of a Rating Event
     and an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection 8.1(a), (b),
     (i) or (j), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in
     respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement
     to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were
     owing directly to it as a Purchaser under this Agreement; provided that
     such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of setoff pursuant to
     this sentence if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it
     shall have acquired its participating interest to share with the Purchasers
     the proceeds thereof as provided in subsection 11.7. The Seller also agrees
     that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsections
     2.22, 2.23 and 2.24 and 11.5 with respect to its participation in the
     Commitments and the Outstanding Purchase Price; provided that no
     Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to
     such subsections than the transferor Purchaser would have been entitled to
     receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such
     transferor Purchaser to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.
     Promptly after the sale of any such participation, the selling Purchaser
     shall give the Managing Facility Agent notice of the amount sold and the
     identity of the Participant.

(c)  Any Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking
     business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to any
     Purchaser or any affiliate thereof and, with the consent of the Seller and
     the Managing Facility Agent (which in each case shall not be unreasonably
     withheld), to one or more additional financial institutions (each, a
     "Purchasing Party") all or any part of such Purchaser's Outstanding
     Purchase Price, the Commitment of such Purchaser or any other interest of
     such Purchaser hereunder and under the other Purchase Documents; provided
     that such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 unless such
     assignment is to a financial institution not then a party to this
     Agreement, in which case such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of
     $10,000,000. Each such assignment shall be made pursuant to a Commitment
     Transfer Supplement executed by such Purchasing Party, such Transferor
     Purchaser and, in the case of a Purchasing Party that is not then a
     Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof, by the Seller and the Managing Facility
     Agent, and delivered to the Managing Facility Agent for its acceptance and
     recording in the Register. Any SPC may, without obtaining any consent


                                      126

     hereunder, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Purchased
     Receivable under this Agreement to its SPC Bank, its Liquidity Bank or
     another SPC managed by the same SPC Bank as such SPC. Each such assignment
     shall be made pursuant to written notice (a "Transfer Notice") delivered to
     the Managing Facility Agent for recording in the Register. Upon the
     execution, delivery, acceptance (if required) and recording of any Transfer
     Notice or Commitment Transfer Supplement, as the case may be, from and
     after the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant to such Commitment
     Transfer Supplement (or after the effective date set forth in the Transfer
     Notice), (x) the Purchasing Party thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
     to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or such
     Transfer Notice, as the case may be), have the rights and obligations of a
     Purchaser hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the
     transferor Purchaser thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such
     Commitment Transfer Supplement (or such Transfer Notice, as the case may
     be), be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
     case of a Commitment Transfer Supplement, or Transfer Notice, as the case
     may be, covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Purchaser's
     rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor Purchaser
     shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Commitment Transfer Supplement (or
     such Transfer Notice, as the case may be) shall be deemed to amend this
     Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the
     addition of such Purchasing Party and the resulting adjustment of
     Commitment Percentages or Available Commitment Percentages arising from the
     purchase by such Purchasing Party of all or a portion of the rights and
     obligations of such transferor Purchaser under this Agreement.

(d)  The Managing Facility Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
     subsection 11.2 a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement and each
     Transfer Notice delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for the
     recordation of the names and addresses of the Purchasers and the Commitment
     of, and proportionate share of the Outstanding Purchase Price from time to
     time payable to, each Purchaser from time to time. The entries in the
     Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the
     Seller, the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers may treat each
     Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the holder of the
     Commitment recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The
     Register shall be available for inspection by the Seller, the Servicer or
     any Purchaser at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
     prior notice to the Managing Facility Agent.

(e)  Upon its receipt of a Commitment Transfer Supplement or a Transfer Notice
     executed by a transferor Purchaser and Purchasing Party (and, in the case
     of a Purchasing Party that is not then a Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof,
     by the Seller and the Managing Facility Agent) and, except in the case of a
     transfer from an SPC to its Liquidity Bank, payment by the transferor
     Purchaser or the Purchasing Party of a servicing fee of $3,500 to the
     Managing Facility Agent, the Managing Facility Agent shall (i) promptly
     accept such Commitment Transfer Supplement or Transfer Notice, as the case
     may be, and (ii) on the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant thereto
     record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of
     such acceptance and recordation to the Seller, such transferor Purchaser
     and such Purchasing Party.

                                      127

(f)  The Seller authorizes each Purchaser to disclose to any Participant or
     Purchasing Party (each, a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any
     and all financial information in such Purchaser's possession concerning the
     Seller and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such Purchaser by or
     on behalf of the Seller pursuant to this Agreement or which has been
     delivered to such Purchaser by or on behalf of the Seller in connection
     with such Purchaser's credit evaluation of the Seller and its Affiliates
     prior to becoming a party to this Agreement; provided that such Transferee
     or such prospective Transferee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by
     the same confidentiality provisions as a Purchaser with respect to all
     information delivered hereunder.

(g)  If, pursuant to this subsection, any interest in this Agreement is
     transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of any
     jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, the
     transferor Purchaser shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the
     effectiveness of such transfer, (i) to represent to the transferor
     Purchaser (for the benefit of the transferor Purchaser, the Managing
     Facility Agent, Raytheon, RAC, the Servicer and the Seller) that under
     applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the
     Managing Facility Agent, the Seller, Raytheon, RAC, the Servicer or the
     transferor Purchaser with respect to any payments to be made to such
     Transferee in respect of the Outstanding Purchase Price, (ii) to furnish to
     the transferor Purchaser (and, in the case of any Purchasing Party
     registered in the Register, the Managing Facility Agent and the Seller) (A)
     either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or U.S. Internal Revenue
     Service Form 1001 (wherein such Transferee claims entitlement to complete
     exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all interest payments
     hereunder) and (B) an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 and (iii) to
     agree (for the benefit of the transferor Purchaser, the Managing Facility
     Agent, Raytheon, RAC and the Seller) to provide the transferor Purchaser
     (and, in the case of any Purchasing Party registered in the Register, the
     Managing Facility Agent and the Seller) a new Form 4224 or Form 1001, or
     Form W-8 or W-9, if applicable, upon the expiration or obsolescence of any
     previously delivered form and comparable statements in accordance with
     applicable U.S. laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and
     completed by such Transferee, and to comply from time to time with all
     applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax
     exemption.

(h)  Nothing herein shall prohibit any Purchaser from pledging or assigning its
     interests hereunder to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with
     applicable law or prohibit any SPC from pledging or assigning its interests
     hereunder to its SPC Bank.

     11.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

                                      128

(a)  If any Purchaser (a "Benefitted Purchaser") shall at any time receive any
     payment of all or part of its Outstanding Purchase Price, or interest
     thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily
     or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the
     nature referred to in subsection 8.1(j) or pursuant to the Guarantee, the
     Repurchase Agreement or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such
     payment to or collateral received by any other Purchaser, if any, in
     respect of such other Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price, or interest
     payable thereon, such Benefitted Purchaser shall purchase for cash from the
     other Purchasers such portion of each such other Purchaser's Outstanding
     Purchase Price, or shall provide such other Purchasers with the benefits of
     any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to
     cause such Benefitted Purchaser to share the excess payment or benefits of
     such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Purchasers; provided,
     however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is
     thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Purchaser, such purchase shall be
     rescinded, and the Purchase Price and benefits returned, to the extent of
     such recovery, but without interest. The Seller agrees that each Purchaser
     so purchasing a portion of another Purchaser's Outstanding Purchase Price
     may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights
     of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Purchaser were
     the direct holder of such portion.

(b)  In addition to any rights and remedies of the Purchasers provided by law,
     each Purchaser shall have the right, without prior notice to the Seller,
     any such notice being expressly waived by the Seller to the extent
     permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and continuance of a
     Rating Event or an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection
     8.1(a), (b), (i) or (j), to set-off and appropriate and apply against such
     amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
     provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness
     or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect,
     absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by
     such Purchaser or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the
     account of the Seller. Each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify the Seller
     and the Managing Facility Agent after any such set-off and application made
     by such Purchaser, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not
     affect the validity of such set-off and application.

     11.8 Responsibilities of the Seller. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding:
                  
(a)  the Seller shall perform all of its obligations under Contracts related to
     the Purchased Receivables to the same extent as if such Purchased
     Receivables had not been sold hereunder and the exercise by either
     Administrative Agent or the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser of any
     of their rights hereunder shall not relieve the Seller from such
     obligations or its obligations with respect to such Purchased Receivables;
     and

                                      129

(b)  neither Administrative Agent, nor the Managing Facility Agent nor any
     Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any
     Purchased Receivables or the related Contracts or Financed Aircraft, nor
     shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the
     Seller thereunder.

     11.9 Optional Repurchase. If the Outstanding Purchase Price at any time
during the Amortization Period is less than 10% of the maximum Outstanding
Purchase Price at any time during the Revolving Period, then on any Settlement
Date thereafter the Seller may, by 10 days prior irrevocable notice to the
Managing Facility Agent, repurchase the ownership interests in the Purchased
Receivables by payment to the Managing Facility Agent for the account of the
Purchasers of an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Outstanding Purchase Price
on such Settlement Date, (ii) interest accrued to such Settlement Date and (iii)
all other amounts payable to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers
under this Agreement.

     11.10 Reassignments. (a) The Purchasers (or a Dissenting Purchaser, as the
case may be) shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to receive Net
Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to the Seller all their
(or its) ownership interests in any Purchased Receivable (or portion thereof)
sold hereunder (i) which has been repurchased pursuant to subsection 2.8(b) or
2.13(c) (in the case of repurchases from a Dissenting Purchaser) or subsection
2.7(b), 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, or 11.9 (in all other cases) or for which an indemnity
in an amount satisfactory to the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers has
been paid pursuant to subsection 9.1(a)(vi) or 9.1(a)(xii) or (ii) when the
Principal Balance of any such Purchased Receivable has been reduced to zero. In
connection with reassignments pursuant to this subsection 11.10(a), the Managing
Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers shall promptly
execute and deliver to the Seller, at the Seller's expense, such documents and
instruments of reassignment as the Seller may reasonably request.

(b)  With respect to any Contract for which all amounts outstanding thereunder
     (including accrued interest) are paid prior to the Final Payment Date of
     such Contract, and upon receipt by the Managing Facility Agent of
     certification by the Servicer of such prepayment in full, the
     Administrative Agent agrees to execute such documents and instruments
     (including releases of security interests) for recording and filing with
     the FAA Registry which are necessary to release the Lien on the related
     Financed Aircraft as a result of such prepayment in full. In order to
     facilitate the business operations of the Seller and the Servicer, the
     Administrative Agent may provide the Servicer with a limited number of
     executed releases; provided that, the Servicer shall not file any such
     release without the written consent of the Managing Facility Agent;
     provided further that, the Servicer shall promptly return all such releases
     to the Managing Facility Agent upon the occurrence of an Amortization Event
     or if the Managing Facility Agent shall so request. With respect to any
     substitution of Lease Receivables made pursuant to subsection 2.13(e), the
     Administrative Agent agrees to execute such documents and instruments


                                      130

     (including releases of security interests) for recording and filing with
     the FAA Registry which are necessary (i) to release the Lien on the lease
     related to the Replaced Lease Receivable so long as, prior to or
     concurrently with the recording and filing with the FAA Registry of any
     such document or instrument of release, the conditions contained in
     subsection 5.2(e) with respect to the lease and the Financed Aircraft
     related to the Substituted Lease Receivable substituted for such Replaced
     Lease Receivable have been satisfied and (ii) if amounts are required to be
     paid pursuant to subsection 2.13(e) because the Outstanding Balance of the
     Replaced Lease Receivable is greater than the Purchase Price of the
     Substituted Lease Receivable at the time the substitution occurs have been
     so paid, to release the Financed Aircraft related to such Replaced Lease
     Receivable. Each Purchaser authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute
     such documents and instruments in accordance with this subsection 11.10(b)
     and with respect to Foreign Receivables and Affiliate Receivables, except
     for Uncertified Foreign Receivables, to take whatever action is necessary
     to release any Liens in accordance with the intent of this subsection
     11.10(b).

(c)  In connection with any Receivable not purchased by the Purchasers hereunder
     for which an FAA Assignment was filed with respect to the related Financed
     Aircraft, the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly execute such
     documents and instruments for recording and filing with the FAA Registry
     which are necessary to reassign to the Seller the interests covered by such
     FAA Assignment in such Financed Aircraft and to take whatever actions with
     respect to any Foreign Receivable and any Affiliate Receivables are
     necessary to effect a reassignment in the applicable foreign jurisdictions.

(d)  The Purchasers shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to receive
     Net Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to Raytheon
     all of their ownership interests in any Receivable (or portion thereof)
     purchased by Raytheon pursuant to paragraph 2(e) of the Guarantee. In
     addition, the Purchasers shall assign (subject to the Purchasers' right to
     receive Net Recoveries in certain circumstances as described herein) to RAC
     all of their ownership interests in any Receivable (or portion thereof)
     purchased by RAC pursuant to Section 2 of the Repurchase Agreement. In
     connection with reassignments pursuant to this subsection 11.10(d), the
     Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers shall
     promptly execute and deliver to Raytheon or RAC, as appropriate, such
     documents and instruments of reassignment as Raytheon or RAC, as the case
     may be, may reasonably request.

(e)  All reassignments by the Managing Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent
     and the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall be made without any
     recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever.

                                      131

     11.11 Intention of the Parties; Lien on Intercompany Purchase Agreement.
(a) It is expressly intended that each purchase hereunder be, and be construed
as, an absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables by the Seller to the
Purchasers conveying good title thereto free and clear of any Lien, and that the
Purchased Receivables not be part of the estate of the Seller in the event of
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Seller. It is further expressly intended that
such conveyance not be deemed a pledge of the Purchased Receivable by the Seller
to the Purchasers or the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Purchasers to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the
event that the Purchased Receivables are held to be the property of the Seller,
or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed not to effect an
absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables, then () the parties hereto intend
that the extensions of credit from the Purchasers to the Seller shall be a loan
in a principal amount equal to the then Outstanding Purchase Price with interest
payable thereon pursuant to subsection 2.17, (ii) the parties hereto intend that
this Agreement constitute a security agreement and (iii) the Seller hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers, as
collateral security for all of the obligations of the Seller and Raytheon Credit
hereunder, a first priority security interest in all of the right, title and
interest of the Seller whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to:

                  (A) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles,
         chattel paper, instruments, documents, proceeds of a letter of credit
         and money consisting of, arising from, constituting or relating to the
         Purchased Receivables (including, without limitation, amounts from time
         to time on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account or the Concentration
         Account);

                  (B) all of the Seller's rights in, under and to the Contracts
         and its interest in the related Financed Aircraft, including any
         security interests in such Financed Aircraft, and the Applicable
         Leases;

                  (C) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles,
         chattel paper, instruments, documents and money and other rights
         arising from or by virtue of or constituting the Collections; and

                  (D) all proceeds of the collateral described in the foregoing
         clauses A, B and C (clauses A through D, collectively, the "Receivables
         Collateral").

(b)  In connection with the transfer of the Receivables Collateral as aforesaid
     (whether or not such transfer constitutes a sale or the grant of a Lien)
     the Seller hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the ratable
     benefit of the Purchasers, as collateral security for all of the
     obligations of the Seller and Raytheon Credit hereunder, a first priority
     security interest in all of the right, title and interest of the Seller,
     whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Intercompany
     Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation of
     Raytheon Credit to make repurchases thereunder (together with the
     Receivables Collateral, the "Collateral").

                                      132

(c)  In connection herewith, if this Agreement is held or deemed not to effect
     on absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchasers, the
     Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser shall have all the rights and
     remedies of a secured party and a creditor under the UCC and all other
     applicable laws in each relevant jurisdiction. Without limiting the
     generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
     of a Trigger Amortization Event, if this Agreement is held or deemed not to
     effect an absolute sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Purchasers,
     with the consent of the Required Purchasers the Managing Facility Agent
     may, or at the direction of the Required Purchasers, the Managing Facility
     Agent shall, by notice to the Seller, declare the Outstanding Purchase
     Price to be immediately due and payable, whereupon such amount shall become
     immediately due and payable and, at such time or at any time after such
     declaration, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or
     other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind
     (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Seller
     or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses,
     advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances
     forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or
     any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or
     options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or
     any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more
     parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board
     or office of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser or elsewhere upon
     such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it
     may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
     assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Purchaser
     shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent
     permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the
     whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of
     redemption in the Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or
     released. The Seller further agrees, at the Administrative Agent's request,
     to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative
     Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select,
     whether at the Seller's premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent
     shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt,
     appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs
     and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or
     safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the
     Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers
     hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
     disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in
     such order as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion may
     elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the
     Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law,
     including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC in the
     relevant jurisdiction, need the Administrative Agent account for the
     surplus, if any, to the Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
     the Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against
     the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser arising out of the exercise by
     them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
     disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be
     deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or
     other disposition. The Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency if the
     proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are
     insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any
     attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser to collect
     such deficiency. The Seller authorizes the Administrative Agent and the
     Purchasers, at any time and from time to time, to execute, in connection
     with the sale provided for in this subsection 11.11(c), any endorsements,
     assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to
     the Collateral.

                                      133

(d)  Each Administrative Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody,
     safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession,
     under Section 9-207 of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction or otherwise,
     shall be to deal with it in the same manner as such Administrative Agent
     deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Managing
     Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent, any Co-Administrative Agent,
     any Purchaser nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or
     agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all
     or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be
     under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon
     the request of the Seller or otherwise. Nothing in this subsection 11.11
     shall be construed to prejudice any rights the Purchasers have as
     purchasers or owners of the Purchased Receivables.

(e)  The foregoing transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance does not
     constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or an assumption
     by either Administrative Agent or any Purchaser of any obligation of the
     Seller, the Servicer or any other Person in connection with the Purchased
     Receivables or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including,
     without limitation, any obligation to any Obligors or insurers, or in
     connection with the Intercompany Purchase Agreement.

     11.12 Leases; Grant of Security Interest. () The Seller agrees to perform
and to cause each Affiliate Obligor to perform all its respective obligations
under (other than the payment by such Affiliate Obligor of the rent payable
under such Lease), and not to terminate or to permit (voluntarily or
involuntarily, whether during a bankruptcy case involving the Seller or such
Affiliate Obligor or otherwise) the termination of, any Applicable Lease or any
lease related to a Lease Receivable (other than in connection with substitutions
of Lease Receivables in accordance with subsection 2.13(e)) or the lease by an
Obligor on an ExIm Bank Receivable (such leases, collectively, the "Security
Interest Leases") sold or substituted hereunder; provided that (i) if a
Substituted Lease Receivable which is substituted on any day other than a
Settlement Date in accordance with subsection 2.13(e) has a Purchase Price less
than the related Replaced Lease Receivable, the Seller agrees to deposit into
the Concentration Account on the Settlement Date following such date of
substitution (or, if a Remittance Event has occurred, within two Business Days
after such substitution) the difference between the Outstanding Balance of such
Replaced Lease Receivable and the Purchase Price of such Substituted Lease
Receivable and (ii) if such Security Interest Lease has been declared to be in
default, the Seller may terminate and may permit any Affiliate Obligor to
terminate, such Security Interest Lease if the Seller pays on the date of
termination to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Purchasers an
amount equal to the aggregate amount of rent payable for the remaining term
under such Lease (including any interest thereon on amounts past due), up to the
then Outstanding Balance of the related Receivable together with interest on
such Outstanding Balance at the rate set forth in such Lease Receivable or
Applicable Lease related to such Affiliate Receivable for the period from the
last date of payment on such Receivable (all of the foregoing, including any
damages resulting from a breach of the foregoing, collectively, the "Lease
Obligations"). As collateral security for (i) the prompt and complete payment
and performance of the Lease Obligations and (ii) the agreement of the Seller
not to reject or permit an Affiliate Obligor to reject pursuant to 11 U.S.C.
ss.365 any Lease after the occurrence of a bankruptcy case involving the Seller
or such Affiliate Obligor (and all other Obligations under this Agreement) the
Seller does hereby grant, bargain, sell, assign, transfer, convey, mortgage,
pledge, grant a security interest in and confirm unto the Administrative Agent
for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers the following:

                                      134

                  (A) each Financed Aircraft subject to a Security Interest
         Lease, the related Receivable of which is sold or substituted hereunder
         on the Closing Date or on any Settlement Date; and

                  (B) all proceeds thereof (clauses A and B, collectively, the
"Lease Collateral").

(b)  In connection with the foregoing grant, the Administrative Agent and each
     Purchaser shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party and a
     creditor under the UCC and all other applicable laws in each relevant
     jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the
     occurrence and during the continuance of a Trigger Amortization Event, the
     Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand,
     presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any
     notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Seller or any
     other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and
     notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect,
     receive, appropriate and realize upon the Lease Collateral, or any part
     thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options
     to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Lease Collateral or
     any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more
     parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's
     board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser or elsewhere
     upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices
     as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
     assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Purchaser
     shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent
     permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the
     whole or any part of the Lease Collateral so sold, free of any right or
     equity of redemption in the Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived
     or released. The Seller further agrees, at the Administrative Agent's
     request, to assemble the Lease Collateral, to the extent available to the
     Seller under applicable law, and make it available to the Administrative
     Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select,
     whether at the Seller's premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent
     shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt,
     appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs
     and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or
     safekeeping of any of the Lease Collateral or in any way relating to the
     Lease Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the
     Purchasers hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
     fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Lease
     Obligations, in such order as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
     discretion may elect, and only after such application and after the payment
     by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision
     of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-504(1)(c) of the UCC in
     the relevant jurisdiction, need the Administrative Agent account for the
     surplus, if any, to the Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
     the Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against
     the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser arising out of the exercise by
     them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other
     disposition of Lease Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall


                                      135

     be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale
     or other disposition. The Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency if
     the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Lease Collateral are
     insufficient to pay the Lease Obligations and the fees and disbursements of
     any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser to
     collect such deficiency. The Seller authorizes the Administrative Agent and
     the Purchasers, at any time and from time to time, to execute, in
     connection with the sale provided for in this subsection 11.12(b), any
     endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer
     with respect to the Lease Collateral.

(c)  Each Administrative Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody,
     safekeeping and physical preservation of the Lease Collateral in its
     possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC in the relevant jurisdiction or
     otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as such
     Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account.
     Neither the Managing Facility Agent, either Administrative Agent any
     Co-Administrative Agent or any Purchaser nor any of their respective
     directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to
     demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Lease Collateral or
     for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or
     otherwise dispose of any Lease Collateral upon the request of the Seller or
     otherwise.

     11.13 Power of Attorney. (a) The Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and
appoints the Managing Facility Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full
power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full
irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Seller and in the
name of the Seller or in its own name, from time to time after the occurrence
and during the continuance of a Specified Amortization Event or in connection
with any action taken pursuant to subsection 11.11(c) or subsection 11.12(b) in

terms of this Agreement and obtaining the benefit of the Purchased Receivables,
the Collections with respect thereto and the related Contracts and Financed
Aircraft, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all
documents and instruments which may be necessary to perform the duties and
obligations of the Seller or the Servicer under this Agreement or desirable to
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including the power and right, on

         thereto or the related Contract or Financed Aircraft (collectively, the
         "Transferred Property") and to file any claim or to take any other
         action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed
         appropriate by the Managing Facility Agent for the purpose of
         collecting any and all such moneys due under any Purchased Receivable
         or with respect to any other Transferred Property whenever payable;

         to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;
         and

  (iii)  to file financing or continuation statements under the UCC, or
         with respect to Foreign Receivables and Affiliate Receivables,

     cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power
     coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of
said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties

guarantees to the Managing Facility Agent for the ratable benefit of the

the Seller, the Servicer and RAC when due (whether at the stated maturity or
otherwise) of the Obligations. Such guarantee shall be a guarantee of payment.

Seller, the Servicer and RAC duly and punctually to perform and observe all of

without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may
be paid or incurred by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser in enforcing
or preserving any of their rights under this Guarantee.

                                       4

     (d) The Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time,
it shall make any payment to the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser on
account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Managing Facility Agent
and such Purchaser, if applicable, in writing that such payment is made under
this Guarantee for such purpose. No payment or payments made by the Seller, the
Servicer, RAC or any other Person or received or collected by the Managing
Facility Agent or any Purchaser from the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any other
Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or
application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of
the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect
the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such
payment or payments, continue until the Obligations are paid in full and the
Commitments are terminated. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect
until the Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated,
notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Seller, the Servicer
and/or RAC may be free from any Obligations.

     (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Guarantor, in lieu
of paying or depositing the amount required to repurchase any Purchased
Receivable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, may
purchase such Receivable directly from the Purchasers in accordance with the
provisions of the Purchase Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, as the case
may be, for repurchases as if the Guarantor were the Seller or RAC thereunder.

     3. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Rating Event
or of an Amortization Event of the type described in subsection 8.1(a), (b), (i)
or (j) of the Purchase Agreement, the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser
are hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without
notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being hereby waived by the Guarantor,
to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits,
indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or
owing by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser to or for the credit or
the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the
Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may elect, on account of the
liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder and claims of every nature and
description of the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser against the
Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Purchase
Agreement or under the Repurchase Agreement, as the Managing Facility Agent or
such Purchaser may elect, whether or not the Managing Facility Agent or such
Purchaser has made any demand for payment and although such liabilities and
claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Managing Facility Agent and such
Purchaser shall notify the Guarantor promptly of any such set-off made by it and
the application made by it of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
The rights of the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser under this
paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without
limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Managing Facility Agent or such
Purchaser may have.

                                       5

     4. No Subrogation, Contribution, Reimbursement or Indemnity.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, the Guarantor hereby
irrevocably waives all rights which may have arisen in connection with this
Guarantee to be subrogated to any of the rights (whether contractual, under
Title 11 of the United States Code, including Section 509 thereof, under common
law or otherwise) of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers against the
Seller, the Servicer or RAC or against any right of offset of the Managing
Facility Agent and the Purchasers with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor
hereby further irrevocably waives all contractual, common law, statutory or
other rights of reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or indemnity (or any
similar right) from or against the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any other Person
which may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee. So long as any
Obligations remain outstanding, if any amount shall be paid by or on behalf of
the Seller, the Servicer or RAC to the Guarantor on account of any of the rights
waived in this paragraph, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust,
segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt
by the Guarantor (duly endorsed by the Guarantor to the Managing Facility Agent,
if required), be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured,
in such order as the Managing Facility Agent may determine. The provisions of
this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the
Repurchase Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations; provided that
the foregoing waiver shall be of no force and effect 370 days following the
termination of the Purchase Agreement and the Repurchase Agreement and the
payment in full of the Obligations but only if during such 370-day period none
of the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor shall have commenced or have
commenced against it a bankruptcy proceeding under Title 11 of the United States
Code.

     5. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations. The Guarantor shall
remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of
rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the
Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Managing
Facility Agent or any Purchaser may be rescinded by the Managing Facility Agent
or such Purchaser, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or
the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral
security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may,
from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified,
accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Managing
Facility Agent or any Purchaser, and the Purchase Agreement, the Repurchase
Agreement, any other Purchase Document or any other documents executed and
delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or
terminated, in whole or in part, as the Purchasers (or the Required Purchasers,
as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral
security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Managing Facility
Agent or any Purchaser for the payment of the Obligations may be sold,
exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Managing Facility Agent
nor any Purchaser shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or
insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for
this Guarantee or any property subject thereto.

                                       6

     6. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Guarantor waives any and all
notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations
and notice of or proof of reliance by the Managing Facility Agent or any
Purchaser upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; the Obligations,
and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted
or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the
Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Managing
Facility Agent and the Purchasers, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively
presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. The
Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice
of default or nonpayment to or upon the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or the
Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guarantee shall be construed as
a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee without regard to the
validity or enforceability of the Purchase Agreement, the Repurchase Agreement,
the Assignments, the FAA Assignments, the Foreign Assignments, the Bailment
Agreement or any other document or instrument executed in connection with any of
the foregoing documents, any of the Obligations or any collateral security
therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or
from time to time held by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, any
defense which relates, directly or indirectly, to the matters covered by the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 of the Purchase Agreement
or Section 8 of the Repurchase Agreement or set-off which in either case may at
any time be available to or be asserted by the Seller, the Servicer or RAC
against the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser, or any other circumstance
whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Seller, the Servicer,
RAC or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an
equitable or legal discharge of the Seller, the Servicer or RAC for the
Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any
other instance; provided that this clause (c) shall not prevent the Guarantor
from being discharged from its obligations under this Guarantee pursuant to
confirmation of a plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States
Code in a case in which the Guarantor is the debtor. When the Managing Facility
Agent, or any Purchaser is pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against
the Guarantor, the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser may, but shall be
under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against
the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any other Person or against any collateral
security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect
thereto, and any failure by the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser to
pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Seller,
the Servicer, RAC or any such other Person or to realize upon any such
collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any
release of the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any such other Person or of any such
collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the
Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights
and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the
Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers against the Guarantor.

     7. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of
any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by
the Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Seller, the Servicer or RAC or
upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator
of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Seller, the Servicer, RAC or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had
not been made.

                                       7

     8. Payments. The Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid
to the Managing Facility Agent in immediately available funds without set-off in
U.S. Dollars at the office of the Managing Facility Agent at the address
specified in subsection 11.2 of the Purchase Agreement.

     its obligations hereunder, and will not result in or require the creation

     by such Affiliate Obligor of the principal of and interest on the
     promissory note included in such Contract) and with respect to the Financed
     Aircraft related to the Purchased Receivables; and defend the right, title
     and interest of the Managing Facility Agent and each Purchaser in and to
     such Purchased Receivable, the Collections with respect thereto and the

     with respect thereto, all satisfactory in form and substance to the
     Managing Facility Agent and its counsel.

(e)(i) Not issue, assume or guarantee any Debt on or after the date hereof, if
     such Debt is secured by a mortgage, pledge, security interest or lien (any

     Principal Property, or any shares of stock or indebtedness of any
     Subsidiary, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, without in any such
     case effectively providing, concurrently with the issuance, assumption or
     guarantee of any such Debt, that this Guarantee (together with, if the
     Guarantor shall so determine, any other indebtedness of or guaranteed by
     the Guarantor or such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Guarantor and
     then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably
     with (or prior to) such Debt; provided however, that the foregoing
     restriction shall not apply to:
                                  
     (A) mortgages on any Principal Property, shares of stock or indebtedness of
any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Subsidiary;

     (B) mortgages on any Principal Property acquired, constructed or improved
by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary after the date hereof which are created or
assumed contemporaneously with, or within 90 days after, such acquisition,
construction or improvement to secure or provide for the payment of the purchase
price of such property or the cost of such construction or improvement incurred
after the date hereof, or, in addition to mortgages contemplated by clause (C)
below, mortgages on any Principal Property existing at the time of acquisition
thereof; provided, however, that in the case of any such acquisition,
construction or improvement the mortgage shall not apply to any property
theretofore owned by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary, other than, in the case of
any such construction or improvement, any theretofore unimproved real property
on which the property so constructed, or the improvement, is located;

                                       11

     (C) mortgages on any Principal Property or shares of stock or indebtedness
acquired from a corporation which is merged with or into the Guarantor or a
Subsidiary;

     (D) mortgages to secure Debt of a Subsidiary to the Guarantor or to another
Subsidiary; and

     (E) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions,
renewals or replacements), in whole or in part, of any mortgage referred to in
the foregoing clauses (A) to (D) inclusive; provided, however, that the
principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount
of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement and
that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be applicable only to all or a
part of the property which secured the mortgage extended, renewed or replaced
(plus improvements on the property).

(ii) The Guarantor will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to merge or
     consolidate with another corporation, or sell all or substantially all of
     its assets to another corporation for a consideration other than the fair
     market value thereof which consideration shall consist of liquid assets
     (which shall have a fair market value readily determinable by an
     independent source), (x) unless, in the case of a merger or consolidation
     of the Guarantor or a sale by the Guarantor of substantially all of its
     assets, the successor or purchasing corporation, as applicable, has assumed
     all of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder and (y) if such other
     corporation has outstanding obligations secured by a mortgage which, after
     such merger, consolidation or sale would extend to any of the assets owned
     by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger,
     consolidation or sale unless, prior to such merger, consolidation or sale,
     the Guarantor or such Subsidiary shall have effectively provided that this
     Guarantee (together with, if the Guarantor or such Subsidiary shall so
     determine, any other Debt, indebtedness or liability issued, assumed or
     guaranteed by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary, whether then existing or
     thereafter created) shall be secured by a mortgage, the lien of which, upon
     completion of said merger, consolidation or sale, will rank prior to the
     lien of such mortgage of such other corporation on all assets owned by the
     Guarantor or such Subsidiary immediately prior to such merger,
     consolidation or sale, which, upon completion of such merger, consolidation
     or sale, will be subjected to the lien of such mortgage of such other
     corporation.

(iii) In the event that the Guarantor shall enter into any indenture or other
     agreement or instrument relating to the issuance of Debt (collectively,
     referred to herein as an "indenture") and the provisions of any such
     indenture with respect to restrictions on Liens permitted to be created or
     to exist on any of the Guarantor's property or the granting of equal and
     ratable security interests (collectively, the "Lien Provisions") are more
     restrictive on the Guarantor than this subsection 10(e), then without any
     action by any Person, the Lien Provisions shall be deemed to be
     incorporated by reference in the provisions of this subsection 10(e) with
     the Obligations under this Guarantee constituting the "Debt" for purposes
     of such Lien Provision.

                                       12

(f)  Not enter into any material transaction with any Affiliate (other than a
     Subsidiary of Raytheon), including, without limitation, any purchase, sale,
     lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, unless any
     such transaction is upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the
     Guarantor or such Material Subsidiary, as the case may be, than it would
     obtain in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an
     Affiliate.

(g)  Pay, discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they
     become delinquent, as the case may be, all obligations of whatever nature
     which are material to the business, operations, property or financial or

     a whole, except where the amount or validity thereof is currently being
     contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and reserves in
     conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books
     of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

(h)  Comply with all Contractual Obligations and Requirements of Law except to
     the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the
     aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
     business, operations, property or financial or other condition of the
     Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole or on the
     ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder.

(i)  Maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance
     on all its property in at least such amounts and against at least such
     risks as are usually insured against in the same general area by companies
     engaged in the same or a similar business; and furnish to the Managing
     Facility Agent, upon written request of any Purchaser, a schedule of

     as may reasonably be necessary and to discuss the business, operations,
     properties and financial and other condition of the Guarantor and its
     Material Subsidiaries with officers of the Guarantor having knowledge of
     such matters and with its independent certified public accountants;
     provided that any information, records and materials obtained by the
     Managing Facility Agent or any Purchaser pursuant to this paragraph 10(j)
     shall be used by the Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser solely in
     connection with its participation in the transactions contemplated by the
     Purchase Documents (including pursuant to subsection 11.6(b) and (c) of the
     Purchase Agreement) and shall be treated as confidential by the Managing
     Facility Agent or such Purchaser in accordance with Section 11.22 of the
     Purchase Agreement.

(k)  Cause its short-term unsecured indebtedness to be rated by either or both
     S&P and Moody's and cause its long-term unsecured indebtedness to be rated

     each fiscal year of the Guarantor and within 90 days after the end of the
     fourth fiscal quarter of each fiscal year of the Guarantor, deliver to the
     Managing Facility Agent, with sufficient copies for each Purchaser, a
     certificate of the chief financial officer, treasurer or comparable officer
     of the Guarantor setting forth the Guarantor's Debt Ratio for the
     Guarantor's fiscal quarter ended prior to the date of such certificate and
     Interest Coverage Ratio for the Guarantor's four consecutive fiscal
     quarters ended prior to the date of such certificate, showing calculations
     therefor in reasonable detail and specifying whether a Trigger Amortization
     Event of the type specified in subsection 8.1(g) or (h) of the Purchase
     Agreement has occurred.

(m)  Cause RAC to maintain full and adequate product liability insurance with
     respect to each Financed Aircraft with financially sound and reputable
     insurance companies (which may include a program of product liability
     insurance maintained by an Affiliate of Raytheon, the sole business of
     which is providing insurance for Raytheon and its Affiliates).

     11. Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

     12. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Guarantee are
for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof
or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

     13. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Managing Facility Agent nor
any Purchaser shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to
paragraph 14 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have
waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default or
Amortization Event, Ineligibility Event, Remittance Event, Discount Event or
Rating Event, or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No
failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Managing
Facility Agent or any Purchaser, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power
or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Managing
Facility Agent or any Purchaser of any right or remedy hereunder on any one
occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the
Managing Facility Agent or such Purchaser would otherwise have on any future
occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be
exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided by law.

     14. Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns. None of the terms or

Managing Facility Agent in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. This
Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Guarantor and
shall inure to the benefit of the Managing Facility Agent and the Purchasers and
their successors and assigns.

amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated
Employee in accordance with sections 401(k)(8)(C) and 401(m)(6)(C) of the Code.

     1.4  Adoption of Plan. With the prior approval of the Senior Vice President
of Human Resources of the Company or other officer to whom authority to approve
participation by an entity is delegated by the Board of Directors, the Plan and
Trust may be adopted by any corporation or other entity (hereinafter referred to
as an Adopting Employer). Such adoption shall be made by the Adopting Employer
taking the actions designated by the Administrator as appropriate to the proper
adoption and operation of the Plan and Trust. In the event of the adoption of
the Plan and Trust by an Adopting Employer, the Plan and Trust shall be
interpreted in a manner consistent with such adoption. The Adopting Employers
shall be listed in Exhibit A attached to this Plan.

     1.5 Withdrawal of Adopting Employer.

         (a) An Adopting Employer's participation in this Plan may be 
terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, at any time, as provided in this
section.

         (b) An Adopting Employer shall withdraw from the Plan and
Trust if the Plan and Trust, with respect to that Adopting Employer, fail to
qualify under sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code (or, in the opinion of the
Administrator, they may fail to so qualify) and the continued sponsorship of
that Adopting Employer may jeopardize the status with respect to the Company or
the remaining Adopting Employers, of the Plan and Trust under sections 401(a)
and 501(a) of the Code. The Adopting Employer shall receive at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice of a withdrawal under this subsection, unless a
shorter period is agreed to.

         (c) An Adopting Employer may voluntarily withdraw from the Plan 
and Trust for any reason. Such withdrawal requires at least thirty (30) days
written notice to the Administrator and the Trustee, unless a shorter period is
agreed to.

         (d) Upon withdrawal, the Trustee shall segregate the assets 
attributable to Employees of the withdrawn Adopting Employer, the amount thereof
to be determined by the Administrator and the Trustee. The segregated assets
shall be held, paid to another trust, distributed or otherwise disposed of as is
appropriate under the circumstances; provided, however, that any transfer shall
be for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries. A
withdrawal of an Adopting Employer from the Plan is not necessarily a
termination under ARTICLE XIV. If the withdrawal is a termination, then the
provisions of ARTICLE XIV shall also be applicable.

                                   ARTICLE II

The Adopting Employers, and if applicable, the divisions, operations or similar
cohesive groups of the Adopting Employers that participate in the Plan shall be

required by the Code.

the period commencing September 11, 1998 and ending September 10, 1999 (the
"Transition Period"). The special Matching Contributions required under this
subsection (c) shall equal the amount of matching contributions the
Allied-Signal Participants would have received under the AlliedSignal Savings
Plan and the AlliedSignal Thrift Plan (collectively, the "AlliedSignal plans")
if they had continued to participate in the AlliedSignal plans during the
Transition Period, reduced by the amount of Matching Contributions that the
AlliedSignal Participants are entitled to under this Plan with respect to the

                                       16

Elective Deferrals and Employee After-Tax Contributions made during the
Transition Period. The special Matching Contributions under this subsection (c)
shall be made on or after September 11, 1999, shall be considered Matching
Contributions for the 1999 Plan Year, and shall be treated as Matching
Contributions for all other purposes of the Plan. For purposes of this
subsection (c), an "AlliedSignal Participant" shall mean a Participant who
immediately prior to September 10, 1998 was an employee of AlliedSignal and who
on such date became an Employee of the Company or one of its Affiliates in
connection with the Company's acquisition of AlliedSignal's defense
communications business, provided such Employee (1) does not voluntarily
terminate employment with the Company and all of its Affiliates prior to
September 11, 1999; (2) is not terminated from employment with the Company and
all of its Affiliates for cause prior to September 11, 1999; (3) is not an
hourly employee; and (4) is otherwise eligible to participate in this Plan
during the Transition Period.

     4.3 ESOP Portion of the Plan.

         (a) ESOP Contributions: For each Plan Year, the Adopting Employers
shall make an ESOP Contribution equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the
Participants' Compensation for such Plan Year. The ESOP Contribution may be made
in cash, Common Stock or a combination thereof at the discretion of the Adopting
Employers. Within a reasonable period of time before the allocation to
individual accounts as specified in subsection (b), the Trustee shall use the
ESOP Contribution, to the extent not contributed in Common Stock, to acquire
Common Stock which will be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the
Participants in the Plan.

         (b) Allocation of ESOP Contribution: As soon as administratively 
feasible after the ESOP Contribution is made to the Plan, the Administrator
shall allocate the ESOP Contribution to the Participants who received
Compensation during such Plan Year. The ESOP Contribution (consisting of Common
Stock and any residual cash) shall be allocated to those eligible Participants
in the same ratio as each such Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year
bears to the Total Compensation of all such eligible Participants for the Plan
Year.

     4.4 Rollover Contributions.

         (a) Participants may transfer into the Plan Qualifying Rollover Amounts
from other qualified plans or Conduit IRAs, subject to the following terms and
conditions:

            (1) the  transferred funds are received by the Trustee no later than
sixty (60) days from receipt by the Participant of a distribution from another
qualified plan or, in the event that the funds are transferred from a Conduit
IRA, no later than sixty (60) days from the date that the Participant
receives such funds from the individual retirement account;

            (2) the Rollover Contributions transferred pursuant to this section 
4.4 (a) shall be credited to the Participant's Rollover Contribution Account and
will be invested upon receipt by the Trustee; and

                                       17


            (3) a Rollover Contribution will not be accepted unless (A) the 
Employee on whose behalf the Rollover Contribution will be made is either a
Participant or an Eligible Employee who has notified the Administrator that he
or she intends to become a Participant as of the first date on which he or she
is eligible therefor, and (B) all required information, including selection of
specific investment accounts, is provided to the Recordkeeper.

         (b) For purposes of this section, the following terms shall have the
meanings specified:

             (1) Qualifying Rollover Amounts. Amounts that can be transferred to
the Plan under either section 402(c), 403(a)(4) or 408(d)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code.


             (2) Conduit IRA. An individual retirement account described in 
section 408(d)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code.

     4.5  Direct Transfers.

          (a) The Plan shall accept a transfer of assets, including elective 
transfers in accordance with Treas. Regs. section 1.411(d)-4 Q&A-3(b) and
transfers in connection with a plan merger, directly from another plan qualified
under section 401(a) of the Code only if the Administrator, in its sole
discretion, agrees to accept such a transfer. In determining whether to accept
such a transfer, the Administrator shall consider the administrative
inconvenience engendered by such a transfer and any risks to the continued
qualification of the Plan under section 401(a) of the Code. Acceptance of any
such transfer shall not preclude the Administrator from refusing any such
subsequent transfers.

         (b) Any transfer of assets accepted under this subsection shall be 
separately accounted for at all times and shall remain subject to the
provisions of the transferor plan (as it existed at the time of such transfer)
to the extent required by section 411(d)(6) of the Code (including, but not
limited to, any rights to qualified joint and survivor annuities and qualified
preretirement survivor annuities) as if such provisions were part of the Plan.
In all other respects, however, such transferred assets will be subject to the
provisions of this Plan. The Administrator may, but is not required to, describe
in Exhibit B to this Plan the special provisions that must be preserved under
section 411(d)(6) of the Code, if any, following the transfer of assets from
another plan in accordance with this subsection (b).

         (c) Assets accepted under this section shall be nonforfeitable. 
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, assets transferred in connection with
the plan mergers identified in section 1.1(b) shall vest in accordance with the
provisions of ARTICLE VI.

                                       18

     4.6  Refund of Contributions to the Adopting Employers.

Notwithstanding the provisions of ARTICLE XII, if, or to the extent that, any
Adopting Employer's deductions for contributions made to the Plan are
disallowed, such Adopting Employer will have the right to obtain the return of
any such contributions for a period of one (1) year from the date of
disallowance. For this purpose, all contributions are made, other than Employee
After-Tax Contributions, subject to the condition that they are deductible under
the Code for the taxable year of the Adopting Employers for which the
contributions are made. Furthermore, any contribution made on the basis of a
mistake in fact may be returned to the Adopting Employers within one (1) year
from the date such contribution was made.

         4.7  Payment. The Adopting Employers shall pay to the Trustee in
U.S. currency, or by other property acceptable to the Trustee, all contributions
for each Plan Year within the time prescribed by law, including extensions
granted by the Internal Revenue Service, for filing the federal income tax
return of the Company for its taxable year in which such Plan Year ends. Unless
designated by the Adopting Employers as nondeductible, all contributions made,
other than Employee After-Tax Contributions, shall be deemed to be conditioned
on their current deductibility under section 404 of the Code.

     4.8  Limits for Highly Compensated.

          (a) Elective Deferrals, Employee After-Tax Contributions,
Matching Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions allocable to the
Accounts of Highly Compensated Employees shall not in any Plan Year exceed the
limits specified in this section. The Administrator may make the adjustments
authorized in this section to ensure that the limits of subsection (b) (or any
other applicable limits) are not exceeded, regardless of whether such
adjustments affect some Participants more than others. This section shall be
administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of
the Code.

          (b)(1) The Actual Deferral Percentage of the Highly
Compensated Employees shall not exceed, in any Plan Year, the greater of:

                 (A) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Actual
Deferral Percentage for all other Eligible Participants; or

                 (B) the lesser of two hundred percent (200%) of the Actual 
Deferral Percentage for all other Eligible Participants or the Actual Deferral 
Percentage for the other Eligible Participants plus two (2) percentage points.

             (2) The Actual Contribution Percentage of the Highly Compensated
Employees shall not exceed, in any Plan Year, the greater of:

                 (A) one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the Actual 
Contribution Percentage for all other Eligible Participants; or

                 (B) the lesser of two hundred percent (200%) of the Actual 
Contribution Percentage for all other Eligible Participants or the Actual
Contribution Percentage for the other Eligible Participants plus two (2) 
percentage points.

                                       19


             (3) The sum of the Actual Deferral Percentage and the Actual 
Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employees shall not exceed, 
in any Plan Year, the sum of:

                  (A) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the greater of:

                      (i) the Actual Deferral Percentage of the other Eligible
Participants; or

                     (ii) the Actual Contribution Percentage of the other 
Eligible Participants; and

                  (B) two plus the lesser of:

                      (i) the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(i); or

                     (ii) the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(ii); provided that the
amount in this paragraph (3)(B) shall not exceed two hundred percent (200%) of 
the lesser of the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(i) or the amount in paragraph
(3)(A)(ii).

             (4) The limitations under section 4.8(b)(3) shall be modified to 
reflect any higher limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Service under 
regulations, notices or other official statements.

                 (c) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

                     (1) Actual Contribution Percentage.  The average of the 
ratios for a designated group of Employees (calculated separately for each
Employee in the group) of the sum of the Matching Contributions (other than
those treated as part of the Actual Deferral Percentage), Qualified Nonelective
Contributions (other than those treated as part of the Actual Deferral
Percentage), Employee After-Tax Contributions and Elective Deferrals (other than
those treated as part of the Actual Deferral Percentage) allocated for the
applicable year on behalf of the Participant, divided by the Participant's
Compensation for such applicable year. The "applicable year" for determining the
Actual Contribution Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees
shall be the current Plan Year. For all other Eligible Participants, the
"applicable year" for determining the Actual Contribution Percentage shall be
the current Plan Year, unless, in accordance with the procedures prescribed by
the Internal Revenue Service, the Administrator elects to use the immediately
preceding Plan Year. In the event the Administrator elects to use the
immediately preceding Plan Year for this purpose for any Plan Year, the
Administrator shall so indicate in Exhibit C to this Plan.

                     (2) Actual Deferral Percentage. The average of the ratios 
for a designated group of Employees (calculated separately for each Employee in
the group) of the sum of the Elective Deferrals, Qualified Nonelective
Contributions and Matching Contributions (that the Company elects to have
treated as part of the Actual Deferral Percentage) allocated for the applicable
year on behalf of a Participant, divided by the Participant's Compensation for

                                       20

such applicable year. The "applicable year" for determining the Actual Deferral
Percentage for the group of Highly Compensated Employees shall be the current
Plan Year. For all other Eligible Participants, the "applicable year" for
determining the Actual Deferral Percentage shall be the current Plan Year,
unless in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the Internal Revenue
Service, the Administrator elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year. In
the event the Administrator elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year
for this purpose for any Plan Year, the Administrator shall so indicate in
Exhibit C to this Plan.

                     (3) Compensation.  To the extent regulations permit the 
definition of Compensation in ARTICLE II to be used, then such definition shall
be applied for purposes of this ARTICLE; provided, however, that to the extent
such definition is not so permitted, then Compensation shall include all
compensation required to be counted under section 414(s) of the Code; provided
further, however, that this definition shall not apply for purposes of the
definition of Highly Compensated Employee in section 2.29.

                     (4) Eligible  Participant. Any Employee of the Company who
is authorized under the terms of the Plan to make Elective Deferrals, Employee
After-Tax Contributions or have Qualified Nonelective Contributions allocated to
his or her Account for the Plan Year.

                 (d) For purposes of determining whether a plan satisfies the
Actual Contribution Percentage test of section 401(m), all Employee and matching
contributions that are made under two (2) or more plans that are aggregated for
purposes of section 401(a)(4) and 410(b) (other than section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii))
are to be treated as made under a single plan and that if two (2) or more plans
are permissively aggregated for purposes of section 401(m), the aggregated plans
must also satisfy section 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single
plan.

                  (e) In calculating the Actual Contribution Percentage for
purposes of section 401(m), the actual contribution ratio of a Highly
Compensated Employee will be determined by treating all plans subject to section
401(m) under which the Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those
that may not be permissively aggregated) as a single plan.

                  (f) For purposes of determining whether a plan satisfies the
Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k), all elective contributions
that are made under two (2) or more plans that are aggregated for purposes of
section 401(a)(4) or 410(b) (other than section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii)) are to be
treated as made under a single plan and that if two (2) or more plans are
permissively aggregated for purposes of section 401(k), the aggregated plans
must also satisfy sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single
plan.

                  (g) In calculating the Actual Deferral Percentage for purposes
of section 401(k), the actual deferral ratio of a Highly Compensated Employee
will be determined by treating all cash or deferred arrangements under which the
Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those that may not be
permissively aggregated) as a single arrangement.

                                       21

                  (h) An elective contribution will be taken into account under
the Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k)(3)(A) of the Code for a
Plan Year only if it is allocated to the Employee as of a date within that Plan
Year. For this purpose, an elective contribution is considered allocated as of a
date within a Plan Year if the allocation is not contingent on participation or
performance of services after such date and the elective contribution is
actually paid to the Trust no later than twelve (12) months after the Plan Year
to which the contribution relates.

         4.9  Correction of Excess Contributions.

                  (a) Excess Contributions shall be corrected as provided in
this section. The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess
Contributions as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method
of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof,
as it determines in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and
interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

                  (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all
prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant.

                  (c)(1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to
contribute, as provided in section 4.1(c), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution
in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8.

                     (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year 
shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly
Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated
first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any
remaining Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to
the Participant with the next lowest Compensation for that Plan Year. This
allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all
such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any
Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or
more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be
proportional.

                     (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year
shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of
such Plan Year.

                     (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be 
allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for
which such contribution is made.

                 (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a
Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased),
any or all Excess Contributions or Excess Deferrals (whether Elective Deferrals,
Matching Contributions or Qualified Nonelective Contributions) allocable to that
Participant's Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision
of the Plan. Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any)
attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator.

                                       22

                  (e)(1) The Administrator may recharacterize any or all Excess
Contributions for a Plan Year as Employee contributions in accordance with the
provisions of this subsection. Any Excess Contributions that are so
recharacterized shall be treated as if the Participant had elected to instead
receive cash Compensation on the earliest date that any Elective Deferrals made
on behalf of the Participant during the Plan Year would have been received had
the Participant originally elected to receive such amount in cash and then
contributed such amount as an Employee contribution. To the extent required by
the Internal Revenue Service, however, such recharacterized Excess Contributions
shall continue to be treated as if such amounts were not recharacterized.

                     (2) The Administrator shall report any recharacterized 
Excess Contributions as Employee contributions to the Internal Revenue Service
and to the affected Participants at such times and in accordance with such
procedures as are required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Administrator
shall take such other actions regarding the amounts so recharacterized as may be
required by the Internal Revenue Service.

                     (3) Excess Contributions may not be recharacterized under
this subsection more than two and one-half (2 1/2) months after the close of the
Plan Year to which the recharacterization relates. Recharacterization is deemed
to occur when the Participant is so notified (as required by the Internal
Revenue Service).
                     (4) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed 
or recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed
for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be
distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions
previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable
year.

                 (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess
Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year
and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. In the event of
the termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12)
months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income
allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection.
The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses
necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an
Excess Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any
notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of
the Code.

                     (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Contributions
distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the
Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items
as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property,
appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts,
and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been
realized.

                                       23

                        (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be
determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the
Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion,
determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set
forth in subparagraph (C).

                        (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for 
the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year
allocable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Contributions by the Participant
for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of
the Participant attributable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as
Elective Deferrals) as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by any
Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by the
Participant for the Plan Year.

                     (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other 
provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the
Participant's subaccounts in the following order:

                        (A) from the Participant's Elective Deferrals Account
(if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Elective Deferrals);

                        (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective
Contribution Account (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Qualified
Nonelective Contributions); and

                        (C) from the Participant's Matching Contribution 
Account (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Matching Contributions).

                 (g)(1) The term "Excess Contribution" shall mean, with
respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the Elective Deferrals (including any
Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Matching Contributions that are treated
as Elective Deferrals under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code) on
behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the
maximum amount of such contributions permitted under sections 401(k)(2) and
401(k)(3) of the Code.

                    (2) Any distribution of Excess Contributions for a Plan Year
shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of
contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee.

                    (3) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed or
recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed for
the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be
distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions
previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable
year.

                                       24

     4.10 Correction of Excess Deferrals.

          (a) Excess Deferrals shall be corrected as provided in this section. 
The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess Deferrals as provided in
this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or prevention
provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines in its
sole discretion. A distribution of an Excess Deferral under this section may be
made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to
sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. This section shall be administered and
interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 402(g) of the Code.

          (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective 
Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant.

          (c)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals 
to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made before the
close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection
include income allocable to the Excess Distribution so distributed, as
determined under this subsection.

             (2) Distribution under this subsection shall only be made if all 
the following conditions are satisfied:

                 (A) the Participant seeking the distribution designates the
distribution as an Excess Deferral;

                 (B) the distribution is made after the date the Excess Deferral
is received by the Plan; and

                 (C) the Plan designates the distribution as a distribution of 
an Excess Deferral.

             (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under
this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under subsection
(d)(3), except that income shall only be determined for the period from the
beginning of the Applicable Taxable Year to the date on which the distribution
is made.

          (d)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Deferrals
to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made after the
close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distribution under this subsection shall
only be made if the Participant timely provides the notice required under
subsection (d)(2) and such distribution is made after the Applicable Taxable
Year and before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable
Year. Distributions under this subsection shall include income allocable to the
Excess Deferrals so distributed, as determined under this subsection.

                                       25

             (2) Any  Participant seeking a distribution of an Excess Deferral 
in accordance with this subsection must notify the Administrator of such request
no later than the first March 15 following the close of the Applicable Taxable
Year. The Administrator may agree to accept notification received after such
date (but before the first April 15 following the close of the Applicable
Taxable Year) if it determines that it would still be administratively
practicable to make such distribution in view of the delayed notification. The
notification required by this subsection shall be deemed made if a Participant's
Elective Deferrals to the Plan in any Plan Year create an Excess Deferral.

             (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral distributed under
this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as under section
4.9(f)(2), except that the term "Excess Deferrals" shall be substituted for
"Excess Contributions" and the term "Applicable Taxable Year" shall be
substituted for "Plan Year." The Administrator may make any special allocations
of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection.

          (e) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

              (1) Applicable Taxable Year. The taxable year (for federal income
tax purposes) of the Participant in which an Excess Deferral must be included in
gross income (when made) in accordance with section 402(g) of the Code.

              (2) Excess Deferral. A Participant's Elective Deferrals (and other
contributions limited by section 402(g) of the Code), for an Applicable Taxable
Year that are in excess of the limits imposed by section 402(g) of the Code for
such Applicable Taxable Year.

     4.11 Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions.

          (a) Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be corrected as provided in
this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or
prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines
in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and interpreted in
accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

          (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all prospective 
Elective Deferrals to be contributed to a Participant.

          (c)(1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to contribute, 
as provided in section 4.1(c), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution in an
amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8.

             (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall only
be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly Compensated
Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated first to the
Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any remaining
Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to the
Participant with the next lowest compensation for that Plan Year. This
allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all
such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any
Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or
more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be
proportional.

                                       26

             (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year shall be
contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of such 
Plan Year.

             (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be allocated to
Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for which such 
contribution is made.

          (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a
Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased),
any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions allocable to that Participant's
Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan.
Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such
amounts, as determined by the Administrator.

          (e)(1) The Administrator may forfeit any or all Excess Aggregate 
Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection. The amounts so forfeited shall not include any amounts that are
nonforfeitable under ARTICLE VI.

              (2) Any forfeitures under this subsection shall be made in 
accordance with the procedures for distributions under subsection (f) except
that such amounts shall be forfeited instead of being distributed.

          (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess Aggregate 
Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year
and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. Such distributions
shall be specifically designated by the Administrator as a distribution of
Excess Aggregate Contributions. In the event of the complete termination of the
Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12) months after such
termination. Such distribution shall include the income allocable to the amounts
so distributed, as determined under this subsection. The Administrator may make
any special allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the
provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an Excess Aggregate
Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any notice or
consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code.

              (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Aggregate Contributions
distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the
Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items
as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property,
appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts,
and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been
realized.

                 (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be 
determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the
Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion,
determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set
forth in subparagraph (C).

                                       27

                 (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for the Plan
Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year allocable to
employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching
contributions by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Aggregate
Contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year and the denominator of which
is the total Account balance of the Participant attributable to employee
contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching
contributions as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by the employee
contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated as matching
contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year.

              (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other provisions
of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the Participant's
subaccounts in the following order:

                 (A) from the Participant's Employee After-Tax Contribution 
Account (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Employee
After-Tax Contributions);

                 (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective Contribution
Account (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Qualified
Nonelective Contributions); and

                 (C) from the Participant's Matching Contribution Account (if 
such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Matching Contributions).

          (g)(1) The term "Excess Aggregate Contribution" shall mean, with
respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the aggregate amount of the matching
contributions and employee contributions (including any Qualified Nonelective
Contributions or elective deferrals taken into account in computing the Actual
Contribution Percentage) actually made on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated
Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions
permitted under section 401(m)(2)(A) of the Code.

             (2) The terms "employee contributions" and "matching contributions"
shall, for purposes of this section, have the meanings set forth in Treas. Reg.
ss.1.401(m)-1(f).

             (3) Any distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions for a Plan 
Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of
contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee.

         4.12 Correction of Multiple Use.

              (a) If the limitations of Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-2 are exceeded 
for any Plan Year, then correction shall be made in accordance with the
provisions of this section. This section shall be administered and interpreted
in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

                                       28

               (b) Any correction required by this section shall be calculated 
and administered in accordance with the provisions for correcting Excess
Contributions (in section 4.9), Excess Aggregate Contributions (in section 4.11)
or both, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion. Any correction
required by this section, to the extent possible, shall be made only with
respect to those Highly Compensated Employees who are eligible in both the
arrangement subject to section 401(k) of the Code and the Plan, as subject to
section 401(m) of the Code.

                                    ARTICLE V

                             Investment of Accounts

     5.1  Election of Investment Funds.

          (a) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d)
below, upon enrollment in the Plan, each Participant shall direct that the funds
in the Participant's Account be invested in increments of one percent (1%) in
one or more of the investment options designated by the Administrator, which may
include designated investment funds, specific investments or both. The
investment choices made available shall be sufficient to allow compliance with
section 404(c) of ERISA.

(         (b) Matching Contributions made with respect to Plan Years beginning 
on and after January 1, 1999 must be invested in Common Stock until the
beginning of the fifth (5th) Plan Year following the Plan Year for which such
contributions are made. Thereafter, a Participant may designate the investment
of the Matching Contribution funds in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (a) above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
five-year restriction prescribed in this subsection (b) shall no longer apply
immediately following a Participant's Severance from Service or on or after
January 1 of the calendar year in which a Participant attains age 55.

           (c) Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, amounts held
in a Participant's ESOP Contribution Account shall be invested in Common Stock.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Participant who has attained age 55
and completed a Period of Participation of at least ten (10) years shall be
permitted to direct that up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of
shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole integer) allocated to the
Participant's ESOP Contribution Account as of the December 31 immediately
preceding each Plan Year during the Qualified Election Period may be invested
among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan in accordance
with the provisions of subsection (a) above. With respect to a qualified
Participant's final diversification election, fifty percent (50%) is substituted
for twenty-five percent (25%) in determining the amount subject to the
diversification election. Any direction to diversify hereunder may be made
within 90 days after the close of each Plan Year during the Participant's
Qualified Election Period, as defined below. Any direction made during the
applicable 90-day period following any Plan Year may be revoked or modified at
any time during such 90-day period. The diversification of the ESOP Contribution
Account as provided herein shall be made through the sale by the Trustee of the

                                       29

number of shares of Common Stock directed by the Participant. The amount that
may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan
shall be equal to the proceeds of such sale. Any such diversification shall be
implemented no later than the 180th day of the Plan Year in which the
Participant's direction is made. All such directions shall be in accordance with
any notice, rulings, or regulations or other guidance issued by the Internal
Revenue Service with respect to section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code. For the
purposes of this section, the term "Qualified Election Period" shall mean the
six (6) Plan Year period beginning with the later of the Plan Year in which the
Participant attains age 55 or completes a Period of Participation of ten (10)
years.

          (d) Notwithstanding subsection (e) below, the Administrator shall 
maintain a General Motors Class H Stock Fund ("Fund H") and Raytheon Company
Class A Stock Fund ("Fund I") as investment options under the Plan, subject to
the limitations prescribed in this subsection (d), for four (4) complete Plan
Years following the Effective Date; provided, however, that if at any time prior
to the expiration of such four (4) year period, the aggregate fair market value
of the assets invested in either Fund H or Fund I falls below five percent (5%)
of the highest fair market value of the assets invested in Fund H or Fund I,
respectively, the Administrator may, with six (6) months written notice to
affected Participants, eliminate Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, as investment
options under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may
eliminate one or both funds at any time if the Administrator determines in good
faith that such elimination is necessary under applicable law (including without
limitation the prudence requirements of ERISA). When Fund H and Fund I are
eliminated in accordance with this section 5.1(d), Participants with assets
invested in Fund H or Fund I, as applicable, shall direct the transfer of such
assets to other funds available under the Plan or, if no such election is made,
the Administrator shall transfer such assets to a low risk fixed income fund as
determined by the Administrator in its discretion. The only assets that may be
invested in Fund H or Fund I are the General Motors Class H Stock Fund and
Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund, respectively, directly transferred to the
Plan in connection with the mergers identified in Section 1.1(b). A Participant
may not direct that any other funds in the Participant's Account be invested in
Fund H or Fund I.

           (e) In its discretion, the Administrator may from time to time
designate new funds and, where appropriate, preclude investment in existing
funds and provide for the transfer of Accounts invested in those funds to other
funds selected by the Participant or, if no such election is made, to a low risk
fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion.

           (f) Except as otherwise  prescribed in subsections  (b), (c) and (d)
above, a Participant's investment election will apply to the entire Account of 
the Participant.

           (g) In establishing rules and procedures under section 5.1, the
following shall apply:

               (1) Each Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee shall 
affirmatively elect to self-direct the investment of assets in his or her 
Account, but such election may provide for default investments in the absence 
of specific directions from such Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee.

                                       30

               (2) The investment directions of a Participant shall continue to
apply after that Participant's death or incompetence until the Beneficiary (or,
if there is more than one Beneficiary for that Account, all of the 
Beneficiaries), guardian or other representatives provide contrary direction.

               (3) The Administrator may decline to implement investment 
designations  if such investment, in the Administrator's judgment:

                   (A) would result in a prohibited transaction under section 
4975 of the Code;
                   (B) would generate income taxable to the Trust Fund;

                   (C) would not be in accordance with the Plan and Trust;

                   (D) would cause a Fiduciary  to maintain the indicia of
ownership of any assets of the Trust Fund outside the jurisdiction of the 
district  courts of the United States other than as permitted by section 404(b)
of ERISA and Labor Reg. ss.2550.404(b)-1;

                   (E) would jeopardize the Plan's tax qualified status under 
the Code;

                   (F) could result in a loss in excess of the amount credited
to the Account; or

                   (G) would violate any other requirements of the Code or 
ERISA.

               (4) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and 
(d) above, the Administrator may establish reasonable restrictions on the
frequency with which investment directions may be given, consistent with section
404(c) of ERISA.

               (5) The  Administrator may establish limits on the use of
brokers, investment counsel or other advisors that may be utilized, including
specifying that all investments must be made through a designated broker or
brokers.

               (6) The Administrator may establish limits on the types of 
investments that are permitted.

          (h) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and (d) 
above, the Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be
advisable or necessary to carry out the provisions of this section, with such
rules and procedures being consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA.

           (i) The Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as 
may be advisable or necessary to reasonably ensure that all transactions
involving the investment funds comply with all applicable laws, including the
securities laws.

                                       31

     5.2  Change in Investment Allocation of Future Deferrals. Except as
otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect
to change the investment allocation of future contributions effective as of the
first Trade Day subsequent to notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is
administratively feasible to make such change. Any changes must be made either
in increments of one percent (1%) of the Participant's Account or in a specified
whole dollar amount and must result in a total investment of one hundred percent
(100%) of the Participant's Account.

     5.3  Transfer of Account Balances Between Investment Funds. Except as 
otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect
to transfer all or a portion of the amount in his or her Account between
investment funds effective as of the first Trade Day following notice to the
Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to carry out such
transfer. In determining the amount of the transfer, the Participant's Account
shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is
received; provided, however, that in any case where the notice is received after
4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date
of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the
next Trade Day. Such transfers must be made in either one percent (1%)
increments of the entire Account or in a specified amount in whole dollars and,
as of the completion of the transfer, must result in investment of one hundred
percent (100%) of the Account. Transfers shall be effected by telephone notice
to the Recordkeeper.

     5.4  Ownership Status of Funds. The Trustee shall be the owner of
record of the Plan assets. The Administrator shall have records maintained as of
the Valuation Date for each investment option allocating a portion of the
investment option to each Participant who has elected that his or her Account be
invested in such investment option. The records shall reflect each Participant's
portion of Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock and General
Motors Class H common stock in cash and unitized shares of stock and shall
reflect each Participant's portion of all other investment options as may be
established by the Administrator in a cash amount.

     5.5  Voting Rights. Participants whose Accounts are invested in
Common Stock or Raytheon Company Class A common stock on the last business day
of the second month preceding the record date (the "Voting Eligibility Date")
for any meeting of stockholders have the right to instruct the Trustee as to
voting at such meeting. The number of votes is determined by dividing the value
of the shares in the Participant's Account by the closing price of the
respective classes of stock on the Voting Eligibility Date. If the Trustee has
not received instructions from a Participant as to voting of shares within a
specified time, then the Trustee shall not vote those shares. If a Participant
furnishes the Trustee with a signed vote direction card without indicating a
voting choice thereon, the Trustee shall vote the Participant's shares as
recommended by management. In addition, each Participant shall have the right to
accept or reject any tender or exchange offer for shares of the respective
classes of stock. The Trustee shall vote (or tender or exchange) all combined
fractional shares of the respective classes of stock to the extent possible in
the same proportion as the shares which have been voted (or tendered or
exchanged) by each Participant. Any instructions as to voting (or tender or
exchange) received from an individual Participant shall be held in confidence by
the Trustee and shall not be divulged to the Adopting Employers or to any
officer or employee thereof or to any other person.

                                      32
     5.6 Allocation of Earnings.

        (a)(1) The Administrator, as of each Valuation Date, shall adjust the
amounts credited to the Accounts (including Accounts for persons who are no
longer Employees) so that the total of such Account balances equals the fair
market value of the Trust Fund assets as of such Valuation Date. Except as
otherwise provided herein, any changes in the fair market value of the Trust
Fund assets since the preceding Valuation Date shall be charged or credited to
each Account in the ratio that the balance in each such Account as of the
preceding Valuation Date bears to the balances in all Accounts as of that
Valuation Date with appropriate adjustments to reflect any distributions,
allocations or similar adjustments to such Account or Accounts since that
Valuation Date.

           (2) To the extent that separate investment funds are established (as 
provided in section 5.1(a)), the adjustments required by subsection (a)(1) shall
be made by applying subsection (a)(1) separately for each such investment fund
so that any changes in the net worth of each such investment fund are charged or
credited to the portion of each Account invested in such investment fund in the
ratio that the portion of each such Account invested in such investment fund as
of the preceding Valuation Date (reduced by any distributions made from that
portion of such Account since that Valuation Date) bears to the total amount
credited to such investment funds as of that Valuation Date (reduced by
distributions made from such investment fund since that Valuation Date).

           (3) Interim valuations, in accordance with the foregoing procedure, 
may be made at such time or times as the Administrator directs.

              (b) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, direct the 
Trustee to segregate and separately invest any Trust Fund assets. If any assets
are segregated in this fashion, the earnings or losses on such assets shall be
determined apart from other Trust assets and shall be adjusted on each Valuation
Date, or at such other times as the Administrator deems necessary, in accordance
with this section.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                     Vesting

     6.1  Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover
Contribution, Qualified Nonelective Contribution and ESOP Contribution Accounts.
Each Participant shall have a nonforfeitable right to all amounts in the
Participant's Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover
Contribution, Qualified Nonelective Contribution and ESOP Contribution Accounts.

     6.2 Matching Contribution Account.

         (a) Each Participant who performs an Hour of Service on or after
January 1, 1999, shall have a nonforfeitable right to his or her entire
Account, including the Participant's Matching Contribution Account.

                                       33

         (b) Each Participant who does not perform an Hour of Service on or 
after January 1, 1999 shall have a nonforfeitable right to his or her
Matching Contribution Account in accordance with the terms of the Plan as in
effect before January 1, 1999 (or, if more favorable, under the terms of the
transferee plan in the case of a direct transfer of assets to the Plan in
accordance with sections 1.1(b) and 4.5(c)). For this purpose, before January 1,
1999, the Plan provided that each Participant would have a nonforfeitable right
to his or her Matching Contribution Account upon the earliest of:

             (1) the Participant's completion of a Period of Service of five
(5) years;

             (2) the Participant's completion of a Period of Participation of 
three (3) years;

             (3) the  Participant's Retirement, death while an Employee, 
Disability  or attainment of Normal Retirement Age; or

             (4) in the case of a Participant who formerly participated in the
Raytheon Salaried Savings and Investment Plan (10011) and the Raytheon
California Hourly Savings and Investment Plan (10012), the Participant's Layoff
or Severance from Service due to Qualified Military Service.

     6.3 Forfeitures.

         (a) In the event that a Participant incurs a Severance from Service 
before attaining a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching Contributions,
the Matching Contribution Account will be forfeited as of the first day of the
month immediately following the earliest of: (i) the date on which the
Participant incurs a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive years; (ii)
death; or (iii) the date on which the Participant's Elective Deferral Account is
distributed in accordance with ARTICLE VIII. Forfeitures of Matching
Contributions will be used to reduce future contributions of the Adopting
Employers to the Plan.

         (b) If, in connection with his or her Severance from Service,
a Participant received a distribution of his or her Elective Deferral Account
when he or she did not have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching
Contribution Account, the Matching Contributions that were forfeited, unadjusted
by any subsequent gains or losses, shall be restored if he or she again becomes
an Employee before incurring a Period of Severance of five (5) consecutive
years.

     6.4 Break in Service Rules

         (a) Periods of Service.  In determining the length of a Period of 
Service, the Administrator shall include all Periods of Service, except the
following Periods of Service shall not be taken into account:

            (1) in the case of a Participant who has never had a vested account
balance, the Period of Service before any Period of Severance which equals or
exceeds five (5) consecutive years; and

                                       34

            (2) in the case of a Participant who has had a vested account
balance and who has incurred a Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five
(5) years, the Period of Service after such Period of Severance shall not be
taken into account for purposes of determining the nonforfeitable interest of
such Participant in the Matching Contributions allocated to his or her Account
before such Period of Severance.

         (b) Periods of Severance.  In determining the length of a Period of 
Service, the Administrator shall include any period of time beginning on an
Employee's Severance from Service Date and ending on the date on which he or she
is next credited with an Hour of Service, provided that such Hour of Service is
credited within the twelve- (12) consecutive month period following such
Severance from Service Date.

          (c) Other Periods. In making the determinations described in 
subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the second, third, and fourth
consecutive years of a Layoff (from the first anniversary of the last day paid
to the fourth anniversary of the last day paid) and any period in excess of one
(1) year of an Authorized Leave of Absence shall be regarded as neither a Period
of Service nor a Period of Severance.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                             In-Service Withdrawals

     7.1 Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions.

         (a) Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a
 Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Elective Deferral
Account or Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account either (1) on or after
attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2), or (2) in the event of a
hardship.

         (b) In order to be entitled to a hardship withdrawal under this 
section, a Participant must satisfy the requirements of both subsection (c) and
subsection (d). Whether a Participant is entitled to a withdrawal under this
section is to be determined by the Administrator in accordance with
nondiscriminatory and objective standards.

         (c)(1) A Participant will be deemed to have experienced an immediate 
and heavy financial need necessary to satisfy the requirements of this
subsection if the withdrawal is on account of:

               (A) medical expenses described in section 213(d) of the Code 
incurred by the Participant, the Participant's spouse or any dependents of the
Participant;

               (B) the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal
residence of the Participant;

               (C) payment of tuition for the next twelve (12) months of 
post-secondary education for the Participant or his or her spouse, children or
dependents; or

                                       35

               (D) the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his
or her principal residence or the foreclosure on the mortgage of the 
Participant's principal residence.

            (2) The  Administrator may, on the basis of such evidence it deems
relevant, determine that the Participant has experienced an immediate and heavy 
financial need for reasons other than those enumerated above in this subsection.

         (d)(1) A withdrawal under this subsection will be deemed necessary to
satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if it satisfies
the requirements of this subsection. To the extent the amount of the withdrawal
would be in excess of the amount required to relieve the financial need of the
Participant or to the extent such need may be satisfied from other resources
that are reasonably available to the Participant, such withdrawal shall not
satisfy the requirements of this subsection. For purposes of this subsection, a
Participant's resources shall be deemed to include those assets of his or her
spouse or minor children that are reasonably available to the Participant.

            (2) A withdrawal may be treated as necessary to satisfy a financial
need if the Administrator reasonably relies upon the Participant's 
representation that the need cannot be relieved:

                (A) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or 
otherwise;

                (B) by reasonable liquidation of the Participant's assets to 
the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and heavy 
financial need;

                (C) by cessation of Elective Deferrals under the Plan for at
least twelve (12) months after receipt of the hardship withdrawal; or

                (D) by other distributions or nontaxable (at the time of the 
loan) loans from plans maintained by the Adopting Employers or by any other
employer or by borrowing from commercial sources on reasonable commercial terms.

         (e) If a Participant receives a withdrawal for reasons of financial
hardship, the Participant's Elective Deferrals shall be reduced to four percent
(4%) (or such lower percentage as the Participant shall thereafter designate),
if in excess thereof as of the date of the distribution, and shall not be
increased during the twelve (12) months immediately subsequent to the date of
distribution.

     7.2 Employee After-Tax Contributions. Subject to the terms and conditions

         (a) A Participant (or Beneficiary) shall be entitled to a distribution

         (b) Except as otherwise provided in this section 8.2, payment of 
benefits to a Participant (or Beneficiary) shall commence within a reasonable
period of time following the Participant's Severance from Service (or if
earlier, an event described in subsections (e)(3), (4) and (5)).

         (c) If the value of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's 
Account exceeds the maximum amount prescribed in section 411(a)(11) of the Code,
then payment to the Participant shall not commence without the Participant's

consent must be obtained no more than ninety (90) days before the commencement
of the distribution. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this subsection
(c), all distributions to a Participant's Beneficiary shall commence within a
reasonable period of time following the Participant's death (no consent of the
Beneficiary is required).

         (d) Unless a Participant elects otherwise, distribution to the

         (f) A Participant who has attained age seventy and one-half (70 1/2) 
and is subject to the mandatory distribution requirements of section 401(a)(9)
of the Code shall receive a lump sum distribution of his or her entire Account
at the time distributions must commence in order to comply with such
requirements. If additional amounts are allocated to such Participant's Account
following such lump sum distribution, additional lump sum distributions of his
or her entire Account shall be made at such times any mandatory distributions
are required to comply with section 401(a)(9) of the Code. Such payments shall
be made notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan or election made by
such Participant.

         (g) If a Participant dies before the time when distribution is
considered to have commenced in accordance with applicable regulations, then any
remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be
distributed within five (5) years after the Participant's death. If a
distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with the applicable
regulations before the Participant's death, the remaining nonforfeitable portion
of the Participant's Account shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under
the method of distribution being used as of the date of the Participant's death.

     8.3 Form of Distribution.

          (a) Distributions under the Plan shall be made only in the form of a 
single, lump-sum payment of the entire nonforfeitable portion of the
Participant's Account.

          (b) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's 
Account that is invested in Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock
(if any) or General Motors Class H common stock (if any) shall be made in cash

distributions under the Plan shall be made in cash (or cash equivalent).

     8.4  Determination of Amount of Distribution. In determining the amount of
any distribution hereunder, the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's
Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which
notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the telephone
notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever
is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the
close of business on the next Trade Day.

     8.5 Direct Rollovers.

         (a) A Participant may elect that all or any portion of a distribution
that would otherwise be paid as an Eligible Rollover Distribution shall instead
be transferred as a Direct Rollover.

         (b) The Administrator shall determine and apply rules and procedures as
it deems reasonable with respect to Direct Rollovers. The Administrator may
change such rules and procedures from time to time and shall not be bound by any
previous rules and procedures it has applied.

         (c) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

                                       39

a plan that permits acceptance of Direct Rollovers or an annuity plan described

Plan" shall only include an individual retirement account described in section
408(a) of the Code and an individual retirement annuity (other than an endowment
contract) described in section 408(b) of the Code.

             (4) Eligible Rollover Distribution. Any distribution under the Plan

     8.6  Notice and Payment Elections.

          (a) The Administrator shall provide Participants or other Distributees
of Eligible Rollover Distributions with a written notice designed to comply with
the requirements of section 402(f) of the Code. Such notice shall be provided

ARTICLE shall be made on a form prescribed by the Administrator. The Participant
or other Distributee shall submit a completed form to the Administrator at least
thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence, unless the 
Administrator agrees to a shorter time period.  Any election made under this 
section shall be revocable until thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled 
to commence.

          (c) An election to have payment made in a Direct Rollover shall only
be valid if the Participant or other Distributee provides adequate
information to the Administrator for the implementation of such Direct Rollover
and such reasonable verification as the Administrator may require that the
transferee is an Eligible Retirement Plan.

     8.7 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.

         (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan, payments shall 
be made in accordance with any judgment, decree or order determined to be a 
Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

         (b)(1) If the Plan receives a Domestic Relations Order, the 
Administrator shall promptly notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of
the receipt of such order and of the Plan's procedures for determining whether
such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The Administrator shall,
within a reasonable period after receipt of such order, determine whether it is
a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and notify the Participant and each
Alternate Payee of that determination.

            (2) During any period in which the issue of whether a Domestic 
Relations Order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being determined, the
Administrator shall separately account for the amounts that would have been
payable to the Alternate Payee during such period if the order had been
determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

         (c)(1) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this
subsection only if such order clearly specifies the following:

               (A) the name and last known mailing address (if any) f the 
Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee covered by
the order;

                                       41

               (B) the amount or the percentage of the Participant's benefits to
be paid by the Plan to each such Alternate Payee or the manner in which such
amount or percentage is to be determined;

               (C) the number of payments or period to which such order applies;
 and

               (D) each plan to which such order applies.

            (2) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of this 
subsection only if such order does not:

               (A) require the Plan to provide any type or form of benefit or
any option not otherwise provided under the Plan;

               (B) require the Plan to provide increased benefits (determined on
the basis of actuarial value); and

               (C) does not require the payment of benefits to an Alternate
Payee that is required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under another order
previously determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

          (d) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet
the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that
payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee:

             (1) in the case of any payment before a Participant has separated
from service, on or after the date on which the Participant attains (or would
have attained) the Earliest Retirement Date;

             (2) as if the Participant had retired on the date on which such
payment is to begin under such order (but taking into account only the present
value of the benefits actually accrued and not taking into account the present
value of any employer subsidy for early retirement); and

             (3) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under the Plan 
to the Participant (other than in the form of a qualified joint and survivor
annuity with respect to the Alternate Payee and his or her subsequent spouse).

          (e) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing to meet
the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order requires that
payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee at a date before the
Participant is entitled to receive a distribution. Such distribution shall be
made to such Alternate Payee notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan.

          (f) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

              (1) Alternate Payee. Any spouse, former spouse, child or other 
dependent of a Participant who is recognized by a Domestic Relations Order as
having a right to benefits under the Plan with respect to such Participant.

              (2) Domestic Relations Order. A judgment, decree or order relating
to child  support, alimony or marital property rights, as defined in section 
414(p)(1)(B) of the Code.

              (3) Earliest Retirement Date.  The earlier of:

                  (A) the date on which the Participant is entitled to a 
distribution under the Plan; or

                  (B) the later of:

                      (i) the date the Participant attains age fifty (50); or

                                       42

                     (ii) the earliest date on which the Participant could begin
 receiving benefits under the Plan if the Participant separated from service.

              (4) Qualified Domestic Relations Order. A Domestic Relations Order
that satisfies the requirements of subsection (c) and section 414(p)(1)(A) of
the Code.

          (g) If an Alternate Payee entitled to payment under this section is
the spouse or former spouse of a Participant and payment will otherwise be made
in an Eligible Rollover Distribution, then such spouse or former spouse may
elect that all, or any portion, of such payment shall instead be transferred as
a Direct Rollover. Such Direct Rollover shall be governed by the requirements of
section 8.5.

          (h) If a Domestic Relations Order directs that payment be made to an
Alternate Payee before the Participant's Earliest Retirement Date and such
Domestic Relations Order otherwise qualifies as a Qualified Domestic Relations
Order, then the Domestic Relations Order shall be treated as a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order and such payment shall be made to the Alternate Payee,
even though the Participant is not entitled to receive a distribution under the
Plan because he or she continues to be an Employee of the Employer.

             (i) This section shall be interpreted and administered in
accordance with section 414(p) of the Code.

     8.8 Designation of Beneficiary.

        (a) A Participant may designate a Beneficiary (including successive or
contingent Beneficiaries) in accordance with this section 8.8. Such designation
shall be on a form prescribed by the Administrator, may include successive or
contingent Beneficiaries, shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrator
and shall comply with such additional conditions and requirements as the
Administrator shall prescribe. The interest of any person as Beneficiary shall
automatically cease on his or her death and any further payments from the Plan
shall be made to the next successive or contingent Beneficiary.

          (b) A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary designation from 
time to time, without the consent or knowledge of any previously designated
Beneficiary, by filing a new Beneficiary designation form with the Administrator
in accordance with subsection (a).

(c) If a Participant dies without a designated Beneficiary surviving, the person
or persons in the following class of successive beneficiaries surviving, any
testamentary devise or bequest to the contrary notwithstanding, shall be deemed
to be the Participant's Beneficiary: the Participant's (1) spouse, (2) children
and issue of deceased children by right of representation, (3) parents, (4)
brothers and sisters and issue of deceased brothers and sisters by right of
representation, or (5) executors or administrators. If no Beneficiary can be
located during a period of seven (7) years from the date of death, the
Participant's Account shall be treated in the same manner as a forfeiture under
section 6.3(a).

                                       43

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section,
if a Participant is married at the time of his or her death, such Participant
shall be deemed to have designated his or her surviving spouse as Beneficiary,
unless such Participant has filed a Beneficiary designation under subsection (a)
and such spouse has consented in writing to the election (acknowledging the
effect of the election and specifically acknowledging the nonspouse Beneficiary)
and such consent was witnessed by either the Administrator (or its delegate) or
a notary public. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant does not
have a spouse or the spouse cannot be located. Such consent shall not be
required if the Participant is legally separated from his or her spouse or the
Participant has been abandoned (under applicable local law) and the Participant
has a court order to such effect, unless a Qualified Domestic Relations Order
provides otherwise. If the Participant's spouse is legally incompetent to give
consent, the spouse's legal guardian (even if the guardian is the Participant)
may give consent.

     8.9 Lost Participant or Beneficiary.

        (a) All Participants and Beneficiaries shall have the obligation to keep
the Administrator informed of their current address until such time as all 
benefits due have been paid.

         (b) If any amount is payable to a Participant or Beneficiary who cannot
be located to receive such payment, such amount may, at the discretion of the
Administrator, be forfeited; provided, however, that if such Participant or
Beneficiary subsequently claims the forfeited amount, it shall be reinstated and
paid to such Participant or Beneficiary. Such reinstatement may, in the
Administrator's sole discretion, be made from contributions by one or more
Adopting Employers, forfeitures or Trust earnings, and shall be treated as a
special allocation that supersedes the normal allocation rules.

          (c) If the Administrator has not, after due diligence, located a
Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment within three (3) years
after the Participant's Severance from Service, then, at the discretion of the
Administrator, such person may be presumed deceased for purposes of this Plan.
Any such presumption of death shall be final, conclusive and binding on all
parties.

     8.10 Payments to Incompetents. If a Participant or Beneficiary
entitled to receive any benefits hereunder is adjudicated to be legally
incapable of giving valid receipt and discharge for such benefits, the benefits
may be paid to the duly authorized personal representative of such Participant
or Beneficiary.

     8.11 Offsets. Any transfers or payments made from a Participant's
Account to a person other than the Participant pursuant to the provisions of
this Plan shall reduce the Participant's Account and offset any amounts
otherwise due to such Participant. Such transfers or payments shall not be
considered a forfeiture for purposes of the Plan.

     8.12 Income Tax Withholding. To the extent required by section 3405 of the
 Code, distributions and  withdrawals from the Plan shall be subject to federal
 income tax withholding.

                                       44

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                      Loans

     9.1 Availability of Loans. Participants may borrow against all or a portion
of the nonforfeitable balance in the Participant's Account, subject to the
limitations set forth in this ARTICLE. Participants who have incurred a
Severance from Service will not be eligible for a Plan loan.

     9.2 Minimum Amount of Loan.  No loan of less than five hundred dollars
 ($500) will be permitted.

     9.3 Maximum Amount of Loan. No loan in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the
Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance will be permitted. In addition,
limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code and any other requirements of
applicable statute or regulation will be applied. Under the current requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code, a loan cannot exceed the lesser of one-half (1/2)
of the value of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance or fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000) reduced by the excess of (a) the highest outstanding
balance of loans from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day
before the date on which such loan was made over (b) the outstanding balance of
loans from the Plan on the date on which such loan was made.

     9.4 Effective Date of Loans. Loans will be effective as specified in the
Administrator's rules then in effect.

     9.5  Repayment Schedule. The Participant may select a repayment schedule of
one, two, three, four or five (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) years. If the loan is used to
acquire any dwelling which, within a reasonable time is to be used (determined
at the time the loan is made) as the principal residence of the Participant, the
repayment period may be extended up to fifteen (15) years at the election of the
Participant. All repayments will be made through payroll deductions in
accordance with the loan agreement executed at the time the loan is made, except
that, in the event of the sale of all or a portion of the business of the
Employer or one of the Adopting Employers, or other unusual circumstances, the
Administrator, through uniform and equitable rules, may establish other means of
repayment. The loan agreement will permit repayment of the entire outstanding
balance in one lump-sum and the repayment of any portion of the outstanding
balance at any time (with appropriate adjustment to the remaining payment
schedule as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, on a
uniform and nondiscriminatory basis). The repayment schedule shall provide for
substantially level amortization of the loan. Loan repayments will be suspended
under this Plan as permitted under section 414(u) of the Code.

     9.6  Limit on Number of Loans. Except as otherwise provided herein,
no more than two (2) loans may be outstanding at any time. If a Participant has
more than two (2) loans outstanding on January 1, 1999, or thereafter on account
of a transfer of assets from another plan in accordance with section 4.5, the
Participant may not obtain a new loan until he or she has less than two (2)
loans outstanding.

                                       45

     9.7  Interest Rate. The interest rate for a loan pursuant to this
ARTICLE will be equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on
the first business day in December, March, June and September of each year. The
rate published on the first business day in December will apply to loans which
are made at any time during the period January 1 through March 31; the rate
published on the first business day of March will apply to loans which are made
at any time during the period April 1 through June 30; the rate published on the
first business day in June will apply to loans which are made at anytime during
the period July 1 through September 30; and the rate published on the first
business day in September will apply to loans which are made at any time during
the period October 1 through December 31. For purposes of this section 9.7, a
loan is considered to be made when the loan proceeds are made available to the
Participant.

     9.8  Effect Upon Participant's Account. Upon the granting of a loan
to a Participant by the Administrator, the allocations in the Participant's
Account to the respective investment funds will be reduced on a pro rata basis
and replaced by the loan balance which will be designated as an asset in the
Account. Such reduction shall be effected by reducing the Participant's Account
in the following sequence, with no reduction of the succeeding Accounts until
prior Accounts have been exhausted by the loan: Matching Contribution Account;
Elective Deferral Account; ESOP Contribution Account, Rollover Contribution
Account; and Employee After-Tax Contribution Account. Upon repayment of the
principal and interest, the loan balance will be reduced, the Participant
Accounts will be increased in the reverse order in which they were exhausted by
the loan, and the loan payments will be allocated to the respective investment
funds in accordance with the investment election then in effect.

     9.9  Effect of Severance From Service and Nonpayment. In the event
that a loan remains outstanding upon the Severance from Service of a
Participant, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the
outstanding loan. In any case where payments on the outstanding loan are not
made within ninety (90) days of the Participant's Severance from Service Date,
the amount of any unpaid principal will be deducted from the Participant's
account and reported as a distribution. If, as a result of layoff or Authorized
Leave of Absence, a Participant, although still in a Period of Service, is not
being compensated through the Employer's payroll system, loan payments will be
suspended until the earliest of the first pay date after the Participant returns
to active employment with the Employer, the Participant's Severance from Service
Date, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date of the suspension.
In the event the Participant does not return to active employment with the
Employer, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the
outstanding loan. If the Participant fails to resume payments on the loan, the
outstanding loan will be reported as a taxable distribution. In no event,
however, shall the loan be deducted from the Participant's Account earlier than
the date on which the Participant (i) incurs a Severance from Service, or (ii)
attains age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2).

                      Contribution and Benefit Limitations

     10.1 Contribution Limits.

          (a) The  Annual Additions that may be allocated to a Participant's
Account for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of:

              (1) thirty thousand dollars ($30,000); or

              (2) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's Compensation
for that Limitation Year.

          (b) If the Employer maintains any other Defined Contribution Plans
then the limitations in subsection (a) shall be computed with reference to the
aggregate Annual Additions for each Participant from all such Defined 
Contribution Plans.

           (c) If the Annual Additions for a Participant would exceed the limits
specified in this section, then the Annual Additions under this Plan for that
Participant shall be reduced to the extent necessary to prevent such limits from
being exceeded. Such reduction shall be made in accordance with section 10.4.

     10.2 Overall Limits.

          (a) With respect to Limitation Years beginning before January 1, 2000,
if a Participant is participating in both a Defined Contribution Plan and a
Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer, then the sum of the Defined Contribution
Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction for any Limitation Year shall not
exceed 1.0.

          (b) If the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the Defined 
Benefit Fraction would exceed 1.0, then the annual benefits under the Defined
Benefit Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the sum of such
fractions does not exceed 1.0.

     10.3 Annual Adjustments to Limits. The dollar limits for Annual
Additions and the dollar limits in the Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined
Contribution Fraction shall be adjusted for cost-of-living to the extent
permitted under section 415 of the Code.

     10.4 Excess Amounts.

          (a) The foregoing limits shall be limits on the allocation that may be
made to a Participant's Account in any Limitation Year. If an excess Annual
Addition would otherwise result from allocation of forfeitures, reasonable
errors in determining Compensation or other comparable reasons, then the
Administrator may take any (or all) of the following steps to prevent the excess
Annual Additions from being allocated:

              (1) return any contributions from the Participant, as long as such
return is nondiscriminatory;

                                       47

              (2) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account and
apply the balance of the suspense account against Matching or ESOP Contributions
for that Participant made in succeeding years;

              (3) hold the excess amounts unallocated  n a suspense account and
apply the balance of the suspense account against succeeding year Matching or
ESOP Contributions;

              (4) reallocate the excess amounts to other Participants.

          (b) Any suspense account established under this section shall not be 
credited with income or loss unless otherwise directed by the Administrator. If
a suspense account under this section is to be applied in a subsequent
Limitation Year, then the amounts in the suspense account shall be applied
before any Annual Additions (other than forfeitures) are made for such
Limitation Year.

     10.5 Definitions.

          (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

              (1) Annual Addition. The sum for any Limitation Year of additions
(not including Rollover Contributions) to a Participant's Account as a result
 of:

                  (A) Employer contributions (including Matching Contributions,
ESOP Contributions, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Elective Deferrals);

                  (B) Employee contributions;
                  (C) forfeitures; and

419A(d)(2).

              (2)(A) Defined Benefit Fraction. A fraction, the numerator of 
which is the Projected Annual Benefit of the Participant under all Defined
Benefit Plans of the Employer (determined as of the close of the Limitation
Year) and the denominator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit the
Participant would have under such plans (determined as of the close of the
Limitation Year) if such plans provided an annual benefit equal to the lesser
of:

                     (i) the product of 1.25  multiplied by ninety thousand 
dollars ($90,000); or

                    (ii) the product of 1.4  multiplied by one hundred percent 
(100%) of the Participant's average Compensation for the Participant's three (3)
consecutive Years of Service that produce the highest average Compensation.

                                       48

                 (B) For purposes of determining the Defined Benefit Fraction of
a Participant (i) who was employed by an Adopting Employer on December 18, 1997
and immediately prior thereto was employed by General Motors Corporation or one
of its affiliates or (ii) who transferred to an Adopting Company from General
Motors Corporation or one of its affiliates after such date and before December
1, 1998, service for and Compensation received from General Motors Corporation
and its affiliates, if any, shall be taken into account, and the Projected
Annual Benefit under any Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer shall not be
reduced as a result of the transfer of any assets or liabilities from a Defined
Benefit Plan maintained by General Motors Corporation and its affiliates.

              (3) Defined Benefit Plan. Any plan qualified under section 401(a)
of the Code that is not a Defined Contribution Plan.

              (4)(A) Defined Contribution Fraction.  A fraction, the numerator 
of which is the sum of the Annual Additions to the Participant's Accounts as of
the close of the Limitation Year, and the denominator of which is equal to the
sum of the lesser of the following amounts determined for such Limitation Year
and for each prior year of service with the Employer:

                     (i) the  product of 1.25  multiplied by thirty thousand 
dollars ($30,000); or

                    (ii) the product of 1.4 multiplied by twenty-five percent
(25%) of the Participant's Compensation.

                 (B) For purposes of determining the Defined Contribution 
Fraction of a Participant, services performed for, Compensation paid by and
Annual Additions made by General Motors Corporation or any of its affiliates
shall not be taken into account.

              (5) Defined Contribution Plan. A plan qualified under section 
401(a) of the Code that provides an individual account for each Participant and
benefits based solely on the amount contributed to the Participant's Account,
plus any income, expenses, gains and losses, and forfeitures of other
Participants which may be allocated to such Participant's account.

              (6) Limitation Year. The Plan Year, until the Employer adopts a 
different Limitation Year.

              (7) Projected Annual Benefit. The annual benefit to which a 
Participant would be entitled, assuming:

                 (A) the Participant continues in employment until Normal 
Retirement Age under the Plan;

                 (B) the Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year
 remains the same until such Normal Retirement Age; and

                 (C) all other relevant factors under the Plan for the 
Limitation Year will remain constant.

                                       49

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                 Top-Heavy Rules

         11.1 General. This ARTICLE shall only be applicable if the Plan
becomes a Top-Heavy Plan under section 416 of the Code. If the Plan does not
become a Top-Heavy Plan, then none of the provisions of this ARTICLE shall be
operative. The provisions of this ARTICLE shall be interpreted and applied in a
manner consistent with the requirements of section 416 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder.

         11.2 Vesting.

             (a) If the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan, then amounts in a 
Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall be
vested in accordance with this section, in lieu of ARTICLE VI, to the extent
this section produces a greater degree of vesting. This section shall only apply
to Participants who have at least an Hour of Service after the Plan becomes a
Top-Heavy Plan.

             (b) If applicable, amounts in a Participant's Account attributable
to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall vest as follows:

                        Years of
                   Top Heavy Service         Vested Percentage

                      Fewer than 3                  0%
                       3 or more                  100%

             (c) If the Plan ceases to be a Top-Heavy Plan then subsection (b)
shall no longer be applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall the
vested percentage of any Participant be reduced by reason of the Plan ceasing to
be a Top-Heavy Plan. Subsection (b) shall nevertheless continue to apply for any
Participant who was previously covered by it and who has at least three (3)
Years of Top-Heavy Service.

     11.3 Minimum Contribution.

         (a) For each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the Adopting
Employers shall make a contribution to be allocated directly to the Account of
each Non-Key Employee.

         (b) The amount of the contribution (and forfeitures) required
to be contributed and allocated for a Plan Year by this section is three percent
(3%) of the Top-Heavy Compensation for that Plan Year of each Non-Key Employee
who is both a Participant and an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year for
which the contribution is made, with adjustments as provided herein. If the
contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) allocated to the Accounts of
each Key Employee for a Plan Year are less than three percent (3%) of his or her
Top-Heavy Compensation, then the contribution required by the preceding sentence
shall be reduced for that Plan Year to the same percentage of Top-Heavy
Compensation that was allocated to the Account of the Key Employee whose Account
received the greatest allocation of contributions (other than Rollover
Contributions) for that Plan Year, when computed as a percentage of Top-Heavy
Compensation.

                                       50

         (c) The contribution required by this section shall be reduced
for a Plan Year to the extent of any ESOP or Qualified Nonelective Contributions
made and allocated under this Plan or any other contributions (as permitted
under section 416 of the Code and the regulations thereunder) from the Adopting
Employers made and allocated under any other Aggregated Plans.

     11.4 Definitions.

         (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified herein:

             (1) Aggregated Plans.

                 (A) The Plan, any plan that is part of a "required  aggregation
group" and any plan that is part of a "permissive aggregation group" that the
Adopting Employers treat as an Aggregated Plan.

                 (B) The "required aggregation group" consists of each plan of
the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates (in the Plan Year
containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years)
and each other plan of the Adopting Employers which enables any plan of the
Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements
of section 401(a)(4) or section 410(b) of the Code. Also included in the
required aggregation group shall be any terminated plan that covered a Key
Employee and was maintained within the five (5) year period ending on the
Determination Date.

                 (C) The "permissive aggregation group" consists of any plan not
included in the "required aggregation group" if the Aggregated Plan described in
subparagraph (A) above would continue to meet the requirements of section
401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code with such additional plan being taken into
account.

            (2) Determination Date. The last day of the preceding Plan Year, or,
in the case of the first plan year of any plan, the last day of such plan year.
The computations made on the Determination Date shall utilize information from
the immediately preceding Valuation Date.

            (3) Key Employee.

               (A) An Employee (or former Employee) who, at any time during the
Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding
Plan Years, is:

                   (i) An officer of one of the Adopting Employers with annual
Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year greater than fifty percent (50%) of the
amount in effect under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in
which that Plan Year ends;

                  (ii) one of the ten (10) Employees owning (or considered as
owning under section 318 of the Code) the largest interest in one of the
Adopting Employers, who has more than one-half of one percent (.5%) interest in
such Adopting Employer, and who has annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan
Year at least equal to the maximum dollar limitation under section 415(c)(1)(A)
of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends;

                                       51

                 (iii) a five percent (5%) or greater shareholder in one of the
Adopting Employers; or

                  (iv) a one percent (1%) shareholder in one of the Adopting
Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation from the Adopting Employer of more
than one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000).

               (B) For purposes of paragraphs (3)(A)(iii) and (3)(A)(iv), the
rules of section 414(b), (c) and (m) of the Code shall not apply. Beneficiaries
of an Employee shall acquire the character of such Employee and inherited
benefits will retain the character of the benefits of the Employee who performed
services.

            (4) Non-Key Employee.  Any Employee who is not a Key Employee.
  
            (5) Super Top-Heavy Plan. A Top-Heavy Plan in which the sum of the
present value of the cumulative accrued benefits and accounts for Key Employees
exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees.
The foregoing determination shall be made in the same manner as the
determination of a Top-Heavy Plan under this section.

            (6) Top-Heavy Compensation. The term Top-Heavy Compensation shall
have the same meaning as the term Compensation has under section 2.13.

            (7) Top-Heavy Plan.  The Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan for a Plan Year
if, as of the Determination Date for that Plan Year, the sum of (i) the present
value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all Defined
Benefit Plans that are Aggregated Plans and (ii) the aggregate of the accounts
of Key Employees under all Defined Contribution Plans that are Aggregated Plans
exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the comparable sum determined for all Employees.

 ..         (8) Years of Top-Heavy Service. The number of Years of Service with
the Adopting Employers that might be counted under section 411(a) of the Code,
disregarding all service that may be disregarded under section 411(a)(4) of the
Code.

          (b) The definitions in this section and the provisions of this ARTICLE
shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with section 416 of the Code.

     11.5 Special Rules.

          (a) For purposes of determining the present value of the
cumulative accrued benefit for any Participant or the amount of the Account of
any Participant, such present value or amount shall be increased by the
aggregate distributions made with respect to such Participant under the Plan
during the Plan Year that includes the Determination Date and the four (4)
preceding Plan Years (if such amounts would otherwise have been omitted).

                                       52

         (b)(1) In the case of unrelated rollovers and transfers, (i)
the plan making the distribution or transfer is to count the distribution as a
distribution under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and (ii) the plan accepting
the rollover or transfer is not to consider the rollover or transfer as part of
the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted after December 31,
1983, but is to consider it as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or
transfer was accepted before January 1, 1984. For this purpose, rollovers and
transfers are to be considered unrelated if they are both initiated by the
Employee and made from a plan maintained by one employer to a plan maintained by
another employer.

            (2) In the case of related rollovers and transfers, the plan making
the distribution or transfer is not to count the distribution or transfer under
section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and the plan accepting the rollover or transfer
counts the rollover or transfer in the present value of the accrued benefits.
For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered related if they
are not unrelated under subsection (b)(1).

         (c) If any individual is a Non-Key Employee with respect to
any plan for any Plan Year, but such individual was a Key Employee with respect
to such plan for any prior Plan Year, any accrued benefit for such Employee (and
the account of such Employee) shall not be taken into account.

          (d) Beneficiaries of Key Employees and former Key Employees are 
considered to be Key Employees and Beneficiaries of Non-Key Employees and former
Non-Key Employees are considered to be Non-Key Employees.

          (e) The accrued benefit of an Employee who has not performed any 
service for the Adopting Employer maintaining the Plan at any time during the
five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date is excluded from the
calculation to determine top-heaviness. However, if an Employee performs no
services, such Employee's total accrued benefit is included in the calculation
for top-heaviness.

     11.6 Adjustment of Limitations.

          (a) If this section is applicable, then the contribution and benefit
limitations in section 10.5 shall be reduced. Such reduction shall be made by
modifying section 10.5(a)(2)(A) of the definition of Defined Benefit Fraction to
instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by ninety thousand dollars
($90,000), or" and by modifying section 10.5(a)(4)(A) of the definition of
Defined Contribution Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied
by thirty thousand dollars ($30,000), or"

         (b) This section shall be applicable for any Plan Year in which either:

             (1) the Plan is a Super Top-Heavy Plan, or

             (2) the Plan both is a Top-Heavy Plan (but not a Super Top-Heavy 
Plan) and provides contributions (other than Rollover Contributions and
forfeitures to the Account of any Non-Key Employee in an amount less than four
percent (4%) of such Participant's Top-Heavy Compensation, as determined in
accordance with section 11.3(b).

                                       53

                                   ARTICLE XII

                                 The Trust Fund

     12.1 Trust. During the period in which this Plan remains in
existence, the Company or any successor thereto shall maintain in effect a Trust
with a corporation and/or an individual(s) as Trustee, to hold, invest, and
distribute the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of such Trust.

     12.2 Investment of Accounts. The Trustee shall invest and reinvest
the Participant's accounts in the investment options available under the Plan in
accordance with ARTICLE V, as directed by the Administrator or its delegate. The
Administrator shall issue such directions in accordance with the investment
options selected by the Participants which shall remain in force until altered
in accordance with Article V.

     12.3 Expenses.  Expenses of the Plan and Trust shall be paid from the 
Trust.
 
     12.4 Acquisition Loans. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the
Plan, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to incur Acquisition Loans from
time to time to finance the acquisition of Common Stock or to repay a prior
Acquisition Loan. An Acquisition Loan shall be for a specific term, shall bear a
reasonable rate of interest, and shall not be payable on demand except in the
event of default. Acquisition loans may be secured by the pledge of the Financed
Shares so acquired (or acquired with the proceeds of a prior Acquisition Loan
which is being refinanced). No other Trust assets may be pledged as collateral
for an Acquisition Loan, and no lender shall have recourse against Trust assets
other than any Financed Shares remaining subject to pledge. If the lender is a
party in interest (as defined in ERISA), the Acquisition Loan must provide for a
transfer of Trust assets on default only upon and to the extent of the failure
of the Trust to meet the payment schedule of the Acquisition Loan. Any pledge of
Financed Shares must provide for the release of the shares so pledged as
payments on the Acquisition Loan are made by the Trustee, and such Financed
Shares are allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts under Article
IV. Payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan shall be made
by the Trustee (as directed by the Administrator) only from Employer
contributions paid in cash to enable the Trust to repay such Acquisition Loan,
from earnings attributable to such Employer contributions, and from any cash
dividends received by the Trust on such Financed Shares. Except as required by
section 409(h) of the Code and by Treasury Regulations sections 54.4975(b)(9),
(10), or as otherwise required by applicable law, no Financed Shares may be
subject to a put, call or other option, or a buy-sell or similar arrangement
while held by, or distributed from, the Plan, whether or not the ESOP Portion of
the Plan is an employee stock ownership plan, within the meaning of section
4975(e)(7) of the Code at the time.

                                       54

     12.5 Sale of Common Stock. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the
Plan, subject to the approval of the Senior Vice President of Human Resources of
the Company or other officer authorized by the Board of Directors to give such
approval, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell shares of Common
Stock to any person, including the Company and any Affiliates, provided such
sale must be made at a price not less favorable to the Plan than fair market
value. In the event that the Trustee is unable to make payments of principal
and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan when due, the Administrator may direct
the Trustee to sell any Financed Shares that have not yet been allocated to
Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts or to obtain an Acquisition Loan in an
amount sufficient to make such payments.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           Administration of The Plan

     13.1 General Administration. The general administration of the Plan
shall be the responsibility of the Company (or any successor thereto) which
shall be the Administrator and named Fiduciary for purposes of ERISA. The
Company shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to construe the terms
of the Plan and to make determinations as to eligibility for benefits and as to
other issues within the "Responsibilities of the Administrator" described in
this ARTICLE. All such determinations of the Company shall be conclusive and
binding on all persons.

     13.2 Responsibilities of the Administrator. Except as otherwise
provided in ERISA, the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) may
allocate any duties and responsibilities under the Plan and Trust among
themselves in any mutually agreed upon manner. Such allocation shall be in a
written document signed by the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries)
and shall specifically set forth this allocation of duties and responsibilities,
which may include the following:

         (a) Determination of all questions which may arise under the
Plan with respect to questions of fact and law, including without limitation
eligibility for participation, administration of Accounts, membership, vesting,
loans, withdrawals, accounting, status of Accounts, stock ownership and voting
rights, and any other issue requiring interpretation or application of the Plan.

         (b) Establishment of procedures required by the Plan, such as
notification to Employees as to joining the Plan, selecting and changing
investment options, suspending deferrals, exercising voting rights in stock,
withdrawing and borrowing Account balances, designation of Beneficiaries,
election of method of distribution, and any other matters requiring a uniform
procedure.

         (c) Submission of necessary amendments to supplement omissions from the
Plan or reconcile any inconsistency therein.

         (d) Filing appropriate reports with the government as required by law.

                                       55

         (e) Appointment of a Trustee or Trustees, Recordkeepers, and 
investment managers.

         (f) Review at appropriate intervals of the performance of the Trustee
and such investment

managers as may have been designated.

         (g) Appointment of such additional Fiduciaries as deemed necessary for
the effective administration of the Plan, such appointments to be by written
instrument.

     13.3 Liability for Acts of Other Fiduciaries. Each Fiduciary shall
be responsible only for the duties allocated or delegated to said Fiduciary, and
other Fiduciaries shall not be liable for any breach of fiduciary responsibility
with respect to any act or omission of any other Fiduciary unless:

          (a) The Fiduciary knowingly participates in or knowingly attempts to
conceal the act or omission of such other Fiduciary and knows that such act or
omission constitutes a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the other
Fiduciary;

          (b) The Fiduciary has knowledge of a breach of fiduciary 
responsibility by the other Fiduciary and has not made reasonable efforts under
the circumstances to remedy the breach; or

          (c) The Fiduciary's own breach of his or her specific fiduciary 
responsibilities has enabled another Fiduciary to commit a breach. No Fiduciary
shall be liable for any acts or omissions which occur prior to his or her
assumption of Fiduciary status or after his or her termination from such status.

     13.4 Employment by Fiduciaries. Any Fiduciary hereunder may employ,
with the written approval of the Administrator, one or more persons to render
service with regard to any responsibility which has been assigned to such
Fiduciary under the terms of the Plan including legal, tax, or investment
counsel and may delegate to one or more persons any administrative duties
(clerical or otherwise) hereunder.

     13.5 Recordkeeping. The Administrator shall keep or cause to be
kept any necessary data required for determining the Account status of each
Participant. In compiling such information, the Administrator may rely upon its
employment records, including representations made by the Participant in the
employment application and subsequent documents submitted by the Participant to
the Employer. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon such information when
furnished by the Administrator or its delegate. Each Employee shall be required
to furnish the Administrator upon request and in such form as prescribed by the
Administrator, such personal information, affidavits and authorizations to
obtain information as the Administrator may deem appropriate for the proper
administration of the Plan, including but not limited to proof of the Employee's
date of birth and the date of birth of any person designated by a Participant as
a Beneficiary.

                                       56

     13.6 Claims Review Procedure.

          (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section 13.6, the
Administrator shall make all determinations as to the right of any person to
Accounts under the Plan. Any such determination shall be made pursuant to the
following procedures, which shall be conducted in a manner designed to comply
with section 503 of ERISA:

              (1) Step 1. Claims with respect to an Account should be filed by 
a claimant as soon as practicable after the claimant knows or should know that a
dispute has arisen with respect to an Account, but at least thirty (30) days
prior to the claimant's actual retirement date or, if applicable, within sixty
(60) days after the death, Disability or Severance from Service of the
Participant whose Account is at issue, by mailing a copy of the claim to the
Benefits and Services Department, Raytheon Company, 141 Spring Street,
Lexington, Massachusetts 02421.

             (2) Step 2. In the event that a claim with respect to an Account is
wholly or partially denied by the Administrator, the Administrator shall, within
ninety (90) days following receipt of the claim, so advise the claimant in
writing setting forth: the specific reason or reasons for the denial; specific
reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; a
description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant
to perfect the claim; an explanation as to why such material or information is
necessary; and an explanation of the Plan's claim review procedure.

              (3) Step 3. Within sixty (60) days following receipt of the denial
of a claim with respect to an Account, a claimant desiring to have the denial
appealed shall file a request for review by an officer of the Company or a
claims review committee, as designated by the Company, by mailing a copy thereof
to the address shown in subsection (a)(1); provided, however, that such officer
or any member of such claims review committee, as applicable, may not be the
person who made the initial adverse benefits determination nor a subordinate of
such person.

              (4) Step 4. Within thirty (30) days following receipt of a request
for review, the designated officer or claims review committee shall provide the
claimant a further opportunity to present his or her position. At the designated
officer or claims review committee's discretion, such presentation may be
through an oral or written presentation. Prior to such presentation, the
claimant shall be permitted the opportunity to review pertinent documents and to
submit issues and comments in writing. Within a reasonable time following
presentation of the claimant's position, which usually should not exceed thirty
(30) days, the designated officer or claims review committee shall inform the
claimant in writing of the decision on review setting forth the reasons for such
decision and citing pertinent provisions in the Plan.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (a), the
Administrator is the Fiduciary to whom the Plan grants full discretion, with the
advice of counsel, to interpret the Plan; to determine whether a claimant is
eligible for benefits; to decide the amount, form and timing of benefits; and to

                                       57

resolve any other matter under the Plan which is raised by a claimant or
identified by the Administrator. All questions arising from or in connection
with the provisions of the Plan and its administration, not herein provided to
be determined by the Board of Directors, shall be determined by the
Administrator, and any determination so made shall be conclusive and binding
upon all persons affected thereby.

     13.7 Indemnification of Directors and Employees. The Adopting
Employers shall indemnify any Fiduciary who is a director, officer or Employee
of the Employer, his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all
liability and reasonable expense, including counsel fees, amounts paid in
settlement and amounts of judgments, fines or penalties, incurred or imposed
upon him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of acts or omissions
in his or her capacity as a Fiduciary hereunder, provided that such act or
omission is not the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
Adopting Employers may indemnify other Fiduciaries, their heirs and legal
representatives, under the circumstances, and subject to the limitations set
forth in the preceding sentence, if such indemnification is determined by the
Board of Directors to be in the best interests of the Adopting Employers.

     13.8 Immunity from Liability. Except to the extent that section
410(a) of ERISA prohibits the granting of immunity to Fiduciaries from liability
for any responsibility, obligation, or duty imposed under Title I, Subtitle B,
Part 4, of said Act, an officer, Employee, member of the Board of Directors of
the Employer or other person assigned responsibility under this Plan shall be
immune from any liability for any action or failure to act except such action or
failure to act which results from said officer's, Employee's, Participant's or
other person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                        Amendment Or Termination Of Plan

     14.1 Right to Amend or Terminate Plan. The Company reserves the
right at any time or times, by action of the Board of Directors, to modify,
amend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, in which event a certified copy
of the resolution of the Board of Directors, authorizing such modification,
amendment or termination shall be delivered to the Trustee and to the other
Adopting Employers whose Employees are covered by this Plan, provided, however,
that no amendment to the Plan shall be made which shall:

          (a) reduce any vested right or interest to which any Participant or 
Beneficiary is then entitled under this Plan or otherwise reduce the vested
rights of a Participant in violation of section 411(d)(6) of the Code;

          (b) vest in the Adopting Employers any interest or control over any
assets of the Trust; 

          (c) cause any assets of the Trust to be used for, or diverted to, 
purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their 
Beneficiaries; or

          (d) change any of the rights, duties or powers of the Trustee without
its written consent.

                                       58

          (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section or any
other provisions of this Plan, any modification or amendment of the Plan may be
made retroactively if necessary or appropriate to conform the Plan with, or to
satisfy the conditions of, ERISA, the Code, or any other law, governmental
regulation or ruling. In the alternative, subject to the conditions prescribed
in subsections (a) through (e), the Plan may be amended by an officer of the
Company authorized by the Board of Directors to amend the Plan, provided,
however, that any such amendment does not, in the view of such officer,
materially increase costs of the Plan to the Company or any Adopting Employer.

     14.2 Amendment to Vesting Schedule. Any amendment that modifies the vesting
provisions of ARTICLE  VI shall either:

          (a) provide for a rate of vesting that is at least as rapid for any 
Participant as the vesting schedule previously in effect; or

          (b) provide that any adversely affected Participant with a
Period of Service of at least three (3) years may elect, in writing, to remain
under the vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment. Such election must
be made within sixty (60) days after the later of the:

              (1) adoption of the amendment;

              (2) effective date of the amendment; or

              (3) issuance by the Administrator of written notice
of the amendment. 

     14.3 Maintenance of Plan. The Adopting Employers have established the Plan 
with the bona fide intention and expectation that they will be able to make
contributions indefinitely, but the Adopting Employers are not and shall not be
under any obligation or liability whatsoever to continue contributions or to
maintain the Plan for any given length of time.

     14.4 Termination of Plan and Trust. The Plan and Trust hereby created shall
terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

          (a) Delivery to the Trustee of a notice of termination executed by the
Company specifying the date as of which the Plan and Trust shall terminate; or

          (b) Adjudication of the Company as bankrupt or general assignment by
the Company to or for the benefit of creditors or dissolution of the Company.

     14.5 Distribution on Termination.

         (a)(1) If the Plan is terminated, or contributions permanently 
discontinued, an Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may (at that
time or at any later time) direct the Trustee to distribute the amounts in a
Participant's Account in accordance with the distribution provisions of the
Plan. Such distribution shall, notwithstanding any prior provisions of the Plan,
be made in a single lump-sum without the Participant's consent as to the timing
of such distribution. If, however, an Adopting Employer (or an Affiliate)
maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock
ownership plan), then the preceding sentence shall not apply and the Adopting
Employer, at its discretion, may direct such distributions to be made as a
direct transfer to such other plan without the Participant's consent, if the
Participant does not consent to an immediate distribution.

                                       59

            (2) If an Adopting Employer does not direct distribution under
paragraph (1), each Participant's Account shall be maintained until distributed
in accordance with the provisions of the Plan (determined without regard to this
section) as though the Plan had not been terminated or contributions
discontinued.

         (b) If the Administrator determines that it is administratively 
impracticable to make distributions under this section in cash or that it would
be in the Participant's best interest to make some or all of the distributions
with in-kind property, it shall offer all Participants and Beneficiaries
entitled to a distribution under this section a reasonable opportunity to elect
to receive a distribution of the in-kind property being distributed by the
Trust. Those Participants and Beneficiaries so electing shall receive a
proportionate share of such in-kind property in the form (outright, in trust or
in partnership) that the Administrator determines will provide the most feasible
method of distribution.

          (c)(1) Amounts attributable to elective contributions shall only be 
distributable by reason of this section if one of the following is applicable:

                 (A) the Plan is terminated without the establishment or 
maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock
ownership plan); 

                 (B) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an
unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets used by the Adopting
Employer in a trade or business of the Adopting Employer with respect to an
Employee who continues employment with the corporation acquiring such assets; or

                 (C) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition to an
unrelated entity of the Adopting Employer's interest in a subsidiary with
respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary.

             (2) For purposes of this subsection, the term "elective 
contributions" means employer contributions made to the Plan that were subject
to a cash or deferred election under a cash or deferred arrangement.

             (3) Elective contributions are distributable under subsections 
(c)(1)(B) and (C) above only if the Adopting Employers continue to maintain the
Plan after the disposition.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                              Additional Provisions

     15.1 Effect of Merger, Consolidation or Transfer. In the event of
any merger or consolidation with or transfer of assets or liabilities to any
other plan or to this Plan, each Participant of the Plan shall be entitled to a
benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer, which is equal
to or greater than the benefit he or she would have been entitled to receive
immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer (if the Plan had been
terminated).

                                       60

     15.2 No Assignment.

          (a) Except as provided herein, the right of any Participant or
Beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject to
alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind.

          (b) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
permitted by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to regulations issued under
section 401(a)(13) of the Code.

          (c) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

          (d) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
to the Trust in accordance with section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code to satisfy the
Participant's liabilities to the Plan or Trust in any one or more of the
following circumstances:

              (1) the Participant is convicted of a crime involving the Plan;

              (2) a civil judgment (or consent order or decree) in an action is
brought against the Participant in connection with an ERISA fiduciary violation;
or

              (3) the Participant enters into a settlement agreement with the 
Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation over an ERISA
fiduciary violation.

     15.3 Limitation of Rights of Employees. This Plan is strictly a
voluntary undertaking on the part of the Adopting Employers and shall not be
deemed to constitute a contract between any of the Adopting Employers and any
Employee, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of
the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to
give any Employee the right to be retained in the service of any of the Adopting
Employers or shall interfere with the right of any of the Adopting Employers to
discharge or otherwise terminate the employment of any Employee of an Adopting
Employer at any time. No Employee shall be entitled to any right or claim
hereunder except to the extent such right is specifically fixed under the terms
of the Plan.

     15.4 Construction. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted
and construed in accordance with the requirements of the Code and ERISA. Any
amendment or restatement of the Plan or Trust that would otherwise violate the
requirements of section 411(d)(6) of the Code or otherwise cause the Plan or
Trust to cease to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code shall be deemed
to be invalid. Capitalized terms shall have meanings as defined herein. Singular
nouns shall be read as plural, masculine pronouns shall be read as feminine and
vice versa, as appropriate. References to "section" or "ARTICLE" shall be read
as references to appropriate provisions of this Plan, unless otherwise
indicated.

                                       61


     15.5 Company Determinations. Any determinations, actions or
decisions of the Company (including but not limited to, Plan amendments and Plan
termination) shall be made by its Board of Directors in accordance with its
established procedures or by such other individuals, groups or organizations
that have been properly delegated by the Board of Directors to make such
determination or decision.

     15.6 Continued Qualification. This Plan is amended and restated
with the intent that it shall continue to qualify under sections 401(a), 401(k)
and 4975(e)(7) of the Code as those sections exist at the time the Plan is
amended and restated. If the Internal Revenue Service determines that the Plan
does not meet those requirements as amended and restated, the Plan shall be
amended retroactively as necessary to correct any such inadequacy. Section 7.2
shall not be effective until the date the Internal Revenue Service issues a
favorable determination letter with respect to the Plan as amended and restated
herein (including section 7.2). Until section 7.2 becomes effective in
accordance with the immediately preceding sentence of this section 15.6, a
Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Employee After-Tax
Contribution Account, subject to the condition that such Participant may not
make any Employee After-Tax Contributions under the Plan for at least six (6)
months after receipt of the in-service withdrawal.

     15.7 Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by, construed and
administered in accordance with ERISA and any other applicable federal law;
provided, however, that to the extent not preempted by federal law, this Plan
shall be governed by, construed and administered under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, other than its laws respecting choice of law.

          (2) Special Distribution Rules for March 31, 1990 Account Balances:
This subsection applies to Participants who had an account in the Hughes Section
401(k) Savings Plan on March 31, 1990 (a "3/31/90 Member"). In addition, the
special distribution rules available to 3/31/90 Members apply solely with
respect to the value of such account on the March 31, 1990 valuation date under
the plan (the "3/31/90 Balance").

         (a)  Additional Methods of Distribution: Notwithstanding section
8.3 of the Plan, a 3/31/90 Member shall have the following additional forms of
distribution elections available with respect to his 3/31/90 Balance:

              (i) withdrawal in a single lump sum distribution of the
amount credited to the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance attributable to voluntary
after-tax contributions with or without the deferral of the receipt in a single
lump sum distribution of the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance attributable to
pre-tax contributions and rollover contributions to a date no later than the
April first (1st) following the calendar year during which the Participant
attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2); or

              (ii) purchase of an annuity contract from a life insurance
company under tables based on unisex mortality assumptions with all or any
portion of the Participant's 3/31/90 Balance and taking a single lump sum

the purchase of the annuity.

         (b) Special Informational Requirement: Information showing the
Participant the financial effects of the various distribution options available
with respect to the 3/31/90 Balance shall be provided to the Participant at
least ninety (90) days prior to the date the Participant becomes eligible for a

option:

              (i) The annuity contract shall provide for periodic annuity 
payments for the life of the 3/31/90 Member and the continuation of fifty
percent (50%) of the amount of the periodic annuity payments the 3/31/90 Member
was receiving (or was entitled to receive at his date of death) to the 3/31/90
Member's spouse on the date the annuity payments to the 3/31/90 Member commenced
(or, if earlier, on the date of the 3/31/90 Member's death). The 3/31/90 Member
may revoke such election and elect any other form of benefit; provided, however,

                                       67

that the 3/31/90 Member may not re-elect the forms of distribution specified
above for a reasonable period of time before the purchase of the annuity
contract, as determined by the Administrator. Such annuity contract may not
contain an "interest only option" form of distribution. The revocation of an
election to have benefits paid in the form of an annuity must be made in the
form and manner prescribed by the Administrator and after the Participant shall
have been furnished with a written explanation of (A) the terms and conditions
of the annuity benefit, (B) the Participant's right to revoke an election of an
annuity benefit, (C) the general financial effect of such an election to revoke,
(D) the requirement that the consent of the Participant's spouse, if any, is
required to make a revocation and (E) the rights of the Participant's spouse, if
any. A Participant's election to revoke the annuity benefit shall be effective
only if it is accompanied by the written notarized consent of the Participant's
spouse, if any, and shall specify the other form of benefit and identify the
beneficiary, if any, and shall acknowledge the effect of the election.

             (ii) The annuity contract must provide that benefits will commence
no later than the April first (1st) following the calendar year during which the
Participant attains age seventy and one-half (70-1/2) and, if the spouse of the
3/31/90 Member is not the Participant's Beneficiary, payments under any periodic
payment option offered under the annuity contract to such 3/31/90 Member and his
Beneficiary must be completed during a period not exceeding the life expectancy
of the 3/31/90 Member, or the joint life expectancy of such Participant and his
Beneficiary or, if the Beneficiary is not treated as a natural person, five (5)
years. The forms of distribution offered under the annuity contract must
otherwise satisfy the minimum distribution requirements under the Code.

             (iii) An annuity contract that does not provide for immediate 
payment of benefits must provide for all other forms of distribution then
available to the 3/31/90 Member under the Plan at all times prior to the
commencement of benefit payments under such contract.

             (iv) The annuity contract option shall be available to any
3/31/90 Member with respect to any portion of his 3/31/90 Balance that he has
elected to defer.

              (v) Any 3/31/90 Member who elects the annuity contract option 
shall have the annuity contract distributed to him in lieu of cash or other
property for the portion of his 3/31/90 Balance that was applied to the purchase

the Plan and Trust may be adopted by any corporation or other entity
(hereinafter referred to as an Adopting Employer). Such adoption shall be made
by the Adopting Employer taking the actions designated by the Administrator as
appropriate to the proper adoption and operation of the Plan and Trust. In the

         1.5      Withdrawal of Adopting Employer.

                  (a) An Adopting Employer's adoption of this Plan may be
terminated, voluntarily or involuntarily, at any time, as provided in this
section.

                  (b) An Adopting Employer shall withdraw from the Plan and
Trust if the Plan and Trust, with respect to that Adopting Employer, fail to
qualify under sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code (or, in the opinion of the
Administrator, they may fail to so qualify) and the continued sponsorship of
that Adopting Employer may jeopardize the status with respect to the Company or
the remaining Adopting Employers, of the Plan and Trust under sections 401(a)
and 501(a) of the Code. The Adopting Employer shall receive at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice of a withdrawal under this subsection, unless a
shorter period is agreed to.

                  (c) An Adopting Employer may voluntarily withdraw from the

period is agreed to.

                  (d) Upon withdrawal, the Trustee shall segregate the assets
attributable to Employees of the withdrawn Adopting Employer, the amount thereof
to be determined by the Administrator and the Trustee. The segregated assets
shall be held, paid to another trust, distributed or otherwise disposed of as is
appropriate under the circumstances; provided, however, that any transfer shall
be for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their Beneficiaries. A
withdrawal of an Adopting Employer from the Plan is not necessarily a
termination under ARTICLE XIV. If the withdrawal is a termination, then the
provisions of ARTICLE XIV shall also be applicable.

of the eligible Participants in the Plan.

shall allocate the ESOP Contribution to the eligible Participants who received
Compensation during such Plan Year. The ESOP Contribution (consisting of Common

                 (3) a Rollover Contribution will not be accepted unless (A) 
     the Employee on whose behalf the Rollover Contribution will be made is
either a Participant or an Eligible Employee who has notified the Administrator
that he or she intends to become a Participant as of the first date on which he
or she is eligible therefor, and (B) all required information, including
selection of specific investment accounts, is provided to the Recordkeeper.

                                       16

             (b) For purposes of this section, the following terms shall have 
the meanings specified:

                 (1) Qualifying Rollover Amounts. Amounts that can be 
transferred to the Plan under either section 402(c), 403(a)(4) or
408(d)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code.

                 (2) Conduit IRA. An  individual retirement account described in
section 408(d)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code.

         4.5      Direct Transfers.

                  (a) The Plan shall accept a transfer of assets, including
elective transfers in accordance with Treas. Regs. section 1.411(d)-4 Q&A-3(b)
and transfers in connection with a plan merger, directly from another plan
qualified under section 401(a) of the Code only if the Administrator, in its
sole discretion, agrees to accept such a transfer. In determining whether to
accept such a transfer, the Administrator shall consider the administrative
inconvenience engendered by such a transfer and any risks to the continued
qualification of the Plan under section 401(a) of the Code. Acceptance of any
such transfer shall not preclude the Administrator from refusing any such
subsequent transfers.

                  (b) Any transfer of assets accepted under this subsection
shall be separately accounted for at all times and shall remain subject to the
provisions of the transferor plan (as it existed at the time of such transfer)
to the extent required by section 411(d)(6) of the Code (including, but not
limited to, any rights to qualified joint and survivor annuities and qualified
preretirement survivor annuities) as if such provisions were part of the Plan.
In all other respects, however, such transferred assets will be subject to the
provisions of this Plan. The Administrator may, but is not required to, describe
in Exhibit B to this Plan the special provisions that must be preserved under
section 411(d)(6) of the Code, if any, following the transfer of assets from
another plan in accordance with this subsection (b).

                  (c) Assets accepted under this section shall be
nonforfeitable. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, assets transferred in
connection with the plan mergers identified in section 1.1(b) shall vest in
accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE VI.

         4.6 Refund of Contributions to the Adopting Employers. Notwithstanding
the provisions of ARTICLE XII, if, or to the extent that, any Adopting
Employer's deductions for contributions made to the Plan are disallowed, such
Adopting Employer will have the right to obtain the return of any such
contributions for a period of one (1) year from the date of disallowance. For
this purpose, all contributions are made, other than Employee After-Tax
Contributions, subject to the condition that they are deductible under the Code
for the taxable year of the Adopting Employers for which the contributions are
made. Furthermore, any contribution made on the basis of a mistake in fact may
be returned to the Adopting Employers within one (1) year from the date such
contribution was made.

         4.7 Payment. The Adopting Employers shall pay to the Trustee in U.S.
currency, or by other property acceptable to the Trustee, all contributions for
each Plan Year within the time prescribed by law, including extensions granted
by the Internal Revenue Service, for filing the federal income tax return of the
Company for its taxable year in which such Plan Year ends. Unless designated by
the Adopting Employers as nondeductible, all contributions made, other than
Employee After-Tax Contributions, shall be deemed to be conditioned on their
current deductibility under section 404 of the Code.

                                       17

         4.8      Limits for Highly Compensated.

                  (a) Elective Deferrals, Employee After-Tax Contributions,
Matching Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions allocable to the
Accounts of Highly Compensated Employees shall not in any Plan Year exceed the
limits specified in this section. The Administrator may make the adjustments
authorized in this section to ensure that the limits of subsection (b) (or any
other applicable limits) are not exceeded, regardless of whether such
adjustments affect some Participants more than others. This section shall be
administered and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of
the Code.

                  (b)(1) The Actual Deferral Percentage of the Highly
Compensated Employees shall not exceed, in any Plan Year, the greater of:

                          (A) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the 
Actual Deferral Percentage for all other Eligible Participants; or

                          (B) the lesser of two hundred percent (200%) of the
Actual Deferral Percentage for all other Eligible Participants or the Actual
Deferral Percentage for the other Eligible Participants plus two (2) percentage
points.

                      (2) The Actual Contribution Percentage of the Highly 
Compensated Employees shall not exceed, in any Plan Year, the greater of:

                          (A) one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the 
Actual Contribution Percentage for all other Eligible Participants; or

                          (B) the lesser of two hundred percent (200%) of the 
Actual Contribution Percentage for all other Eligible Participants or the Actual
Contribution Percentage for the other Eligible Participants plus two (2)
percentage points.

                      (3) The sum of the Actual Deferral Percentage and 
the Actual Contribution Percentage for the Highly Compensated Employees shall
not exceed, in any Plan Year, the sum of: 

                         (A) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the
greater of:

                  (i) the Actual Deferral Percentage of the other Eligible
Participants; or
                 (ii) the  Actual Contribution Percentage of the other Eligible
Participants; and

                          (B) two plus the lesser of:

                  (i) the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(i); or

                 (ii) the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(ii); provided that the
amount in this paragraph (3)(B) shall not exceed two hundred percent (200%) of
the lesser of the amount in paragraph (3)(A)(i) or the amount in paragraph
(3)(A)(ii).

                                       18

                      (4)  The limitations under section 4.8(b)(3) shall be 
modified to reflect any higher limitations provided by the Internal Revenue
Service under regulations, notices or other official statements.

               (c) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

(1) Actual Contribution Percentage. The average of the ratios for a designated
group of Employees (calculated separately for each Employee in the group) of the
sum of the Matching Contributions (other than those treated as part of the
Actual Deferral Percentage), Qualified Nonelective Contributions (other than
those treated as part of the Actual Deferral Percentage), Employee After-Tax
Contributions and Elective Deferrals (other than those treated as part of the
Actual Deferral Percentage) allocated for the applicable year on behalf of the
Participant, divided by the Participant's Compensation for such applicable year.
The "applicable year" for determining the Actual Contribution Percentage for the
group of Highly Compensated Employees shall be the current Plan Year. For all
other Eligible Participants, the "applicable year" for determining the Actual
Contribution Percentage shall be the current Plan Year, unless, in accordance
with the procedures prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, the
Administrator elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year. In the event
the Administrator elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year for this
purpose for any Plan Year, the Administrator shall so indicate in Exhibit D to
this Plan.

(2) Actual Deferral Percentage. The average of the ratios for a designated group
of Employees (calculated separately for each Employee in the group) of the sum
of the Elective Deferrals, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Matching
Contributions (that the Company elects to have treated as part of the Actual
Deferral Percentage) allocated for the applicable year on behalf of a
Participant, divided by the Participant's Compensation for such applicable year.
The "applicable year" for determining the Actual Deferral Percentage for the
group of Highly Compensated Employees shall be the current Plan Year. For all
other Eligible Participants, the "applicable year" for determining the Actual
Deferral Percentage shall be the current Plan Year, unless in accordance with
the procedures prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, the Administrator
elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year. In the event the
Administrator elects to use the immediately preceding Plan Year for this purpose
for any Plan Year, the Administrator shall so indicate in Exhibit D to this
Plan.

(3) Compensation. To the extent regulations permit the definition of
Compensation in ARTICLE II to be used, then such definition shall be applied for
purposes of this ARTICLE; provided, however, that to the extent such definition
is not so permitted, then Compensation shall include all compensation required
to be counted under section 414(s) of the Code; provided further, however, that
this definition shall not apply for purposes of the definition of Highly
Compensated Employee in section 2.21.

(4) Eligible Participant. Any Employee of the Company who is authorized under
the terms of the Plan to make Elective Deferrals, Employee After-Tax
Contributions or have Qualified Nonelective Contributions allocated to his or
her Account for the Plan Year.

                                       19

                  (d) For purposes of determining whether a plan satisfies the
Actual Contribution Percentage test of section 401(m), all Employee and matching
contributions that are made under two (2) or more plans that are aggregated for
purposes of section 401(a)(4) and 410(b) (other than section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii))
are to be treated as made under a single plan and that if two (2) or more plans
are permissively aggregated for purposes of section 401(m), the aggregated plans
must also satisfy section 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single
plan.

                  (e) In calculating the Actual Contribution Percentage for
purposes of section 401(m), the actual contribution ratio of a Highly
Compensated Employee will be determined by treating all plans subject to section
401(m) under which the Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those
that may not be permissively aggregated) as a single plan.

                  (f) For purposes of determining whether a plan satisfies the
Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k), all elective contributions
that are made under two (2) or more plans that are aggregated for purposes of
section 401(a)(4) or 410(b) (other than section 410(b)(2)(A)(ii)) are to be
treated as made under a single plan and that if two (2) or more plans are
permissively aggregated for purposes of section 401(k), the aggregated plans
must also satisfy sections 401(a)(4) and 410(b) as though they were a single
plan.

                  (g) In calculating the Actual Deferral Percentage for purposes
of section 401(k), the actual deferral ratio of a Highly Compensated Employee
will be determined by treating all cash or deferred arrangements under which the
Highly Compensated Employee is eligible (other than those that may not be
permissively aggregated) as a single arrangement.

                  (h) An elective contribution will be taken into account under
the Actual Deferral Percentage test of section 401(k)(3)(A) of the Code for a
Plan Year only if it is allocated to the Employee as of a date within that Plan
Year. For this purpose, an elective contribution is considered allocated as of a
date within a Plan Year if the allocation is not contingent on participation or
performance of services after such date and the elective contribution is
actually paid to the Trust no later than twelve (12) months after the Plan Year
to which the contribution relates.

         4.9      Correction of Excess Contributions.

                  (a) Excess Contributions shall be corrected as provided in
this section. The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess
Contributions as provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method
of correction or prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof,
as it determines in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and
interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

                  (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all
prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant.

                                       20

                  (c) (1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to
contribute, as provided in section 4.1(b), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution
in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8.

                      (2) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year 
shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly
Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated
first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any
remaining Qualified Nonelective Contributions thereafter shall be allocated to
the Participant with the next lowest Compensation for that Plan Year. This
allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all
such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any
Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or
more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be
proportional.

                     (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year 
shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of
such Plan Year.

                     (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be 
allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for
which such contribution is made.

                  (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a
Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased),
any or all Excess Contributions or Excess Deferrals (whether Elective Deferrals,
Company Contributions or Qualified Nonelective Contributions) allocable to that
Participant's Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision
of the Plan. Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any)
attributable to such amounts, as determined by the Administrator.

                  (e) (1) The Administrator may recharacterize any or all Excess
Contributions for a Plan Year as Employee contributions in accordance with the
provisions of this subsection. Any Excess Contributions that are so
recharacterized shall be treated as if the Participant had elected to instead
receive cash Compensation on the earliest date that any Payroll Reduction
Contribution made on behalf of the Participant during the Plan Year would have
been received had the Participant originally elected to receive such amount in
cash and then contributed such amount as an Employee contribution. To the extent
required by the Internal Revenue Service, however, such recharacterized Excess
Contributions shall continue to be treated as if such amounts were not
recharacterized.

                      (2) The  Administrator shall report any recharacterized 
Excess Contributions as Employee contributions to the Internal Revenue Service
and to the affected Participants at such times and in accordance with such
procedures as are required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Administrator
shall take such other actions regarding the amounts so recharacterized as may be
required by the Internal Revenue Service.

                                       21

                      (3) Excess Contributions may not be recharacterized under 
this subsection more than two and one-half (2 1/2) months after the close of the
Plan Year to which the recharacterization relates. Recharacterization is deemed
to occur when the Participant is so notified (as required by the Internal
Revenue Service).

                       (4) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed
or recharacterized shall be reduced by excess deferrals previously distributed
for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be
distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions
previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable
year.

                   (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess
Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan Year
and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. In the event of
the termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12)
months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income
allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection.
The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses
necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an
Excess Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard to any
notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of
the Code.

                      (2)(A) The income allocable to Excess Contributions
distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain or loss for the
Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation, including such items
as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the sale of property,
appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life insurance contracts,
and other property, without regard to whether such appreciation has been
realized.

                         (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be
determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the
Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion,
determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set
forth in subparagraph (C).

                         (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for 
the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year
allocable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess Contributions by the Participant
for the Plan Year and the denominator of which is the total Account balance of
the Participant attributable to Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as
Elective Deferrals) as of the beginning of the Plan Year, increased by any
Elective Deferrals (and amounts treated as Elective Deferrals) by the
Participant for the Plan Year.

                                       22

                      (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other 
provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the 
Participant's subaccounts in the following order:
                                    
                          (A) from the Participant's Payroll Reduction 
Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to 
Elective Deferrals);
                          (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective 
Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to
Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and

                          (C) from the Participant's Company Contribution
subaccount (if such Excess Contribution is attributable to Company 
Contributions).

                  (g)(1) The term "Excess Contribution" shall mean, with
respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the Elective Deferrals (including any
Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Matching Contributions that are treated
as Elective Deferrals under sections 401(k)(2) and 401(k)(3) of the Code) on
behalf of eligible Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year over the
maximum amount of such contributions permitted under sections 401(k)(2) and
401(k)(3) of the Code.

                     (2) Any distribution of Excess Contributions for a Plan 
Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of the amount of
contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated Employee.

                     (3) The amount of Excess Contributions to be distributed 
or recharacterized shall be reduced by Excess Deferrals previously distributed
for the taxable year ending in the same Plan Year and Excess Deferrals to be
distributed for a taxable year will be reduced by Excess Contributions
previously distributed or recharacterized for the Plan beginning in such taxable
year.

         4.10     Correction of Excess Deferrals.

                  (a) Excess Deferrals shall be corrected as provided in this
section. The Administrator may also prevent anticipated Excess Deferrals as
provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or
prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines
in its sole discretion. A distribution of an Excess Deferral under this section
may be made without regard to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant
to sections 411(a)(11) and 417 of the Code. This section shall be administered
and interpreted in accordance with sections 401(k) and 402(g) of the Code.

                  (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all
prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed by a Participant.

                  (c) (1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess
Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made
before the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this
subsection include income allocable to the Excess Distribution so distributed,
as determined under this subsection.

                                       23

                      (2) Distribution under this subsection shall only be made
if all the following conditions are satisfied:

                          (A) the Participant seeking the distribution 
designates the distribution as an Excess Deferral;

                          (B) the distribution is made after the date the 
Excess Deferral is received by the Plan; and

                          (C) the Plan designates the distribution as a 
distribution of an Excess Deferral.

                      (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral
distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as
under subsection (d)(3), except that income shall only be determined for the
period from the beginning of the Applicable Taxable Year to the date on which
the distribution is made.

                  (d)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess
Deferrals to the Participant on whose behalf such Excess Deferrals were made
after the close of the Applicable Taxable Year. Distribution under this
subsection shall only be made if the Participant timely provides the notice
required under subsection (d)(2) and such distribution is made after the
Applicable Taxable Year and before the first April 15 following the close of the
Applicable Taxable Year. Distributions under this subsection shall include
income allocable to the Excess Deferrals so distributed, as determined under
this subsection.

                     (2) Any Participant seeking a distribution of an Excess 
Deferral in accordance with this subsection must notify the Administrator of
such request no later than the first March 15 following the close of the
Applicable Taxable Year. The Administrator may agree to accept notification
received after such date (but before the first April 15 following the close of
the Applicable Taxable Year) if it determines that it would still be
administratively practicable to make such distribution in view of the delayed
notification. The notification required by this subsection shall be deemed made
if a Participant's Elective Deferrals to the Plan in any Plan Year create an
Excess Deferral.

                     (3) The income allocable to the Excess Deferral
distributed under this subsection shall be determined in the same manner as
under section 4.9(f)(2), except that the term "Excess Deferrals" shall be
substituted for "Excess Contributions" and the term "Applicable Taxable Year"
shall be substituted for "Plan Year." The Administrator may make any special
allocations of earnings or losses necessary to carry out the provisions of this
subsection.

                  (e) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

                      (1) Applicable Taxable Year.  The taxable year (for 
federal income tax purposes)of the Participant in which an Excess Deferral must
be included in gross income (when made) in accordance with section 402(g) of 
the Code.

                                       24

                      (2) Excess Deferral.  A Participant's Elective Deferrals 
(and other contributions limited by section 402(g) of the Code), for an
Applicable Taxable Year that are in excess of the limits imposed by section
402(g) of the Code for such Applicable Taxable Year.

         4.11     Correction of Excess Aggregate Contributions.

                  (a) Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be corrected as
provided in this section. The Administrator may use any method of correction or
prevention provided in this section or any combination thereof, as it determines
in its sole discretion. This section shall be administered and interpreted in
accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

                  (b) The Administrator may refuse to accept any or all
prospective Elective Deferrals to be contributed to a Participant.

                  (c) (1) The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to
contribute, as provided in section 4.1(b), a Qualified Nonelective Contribution
in an amount necessary to satisfy any or all of the requirements of section 4.8.

                      (2) Qualified Nonelective  Contributions for a Plan Year
shall only be allocated to the Accounts of Participants who are not Highly
Compensated Employees. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated
first to the Participant with the lowest Compensation for that Plan Year and any
remaining Qualified Nonelective contributions thereafter shall be allocated to
the Participant with the next lowest compensation for that Plan Year. This
allocation method shall continue in ascending order of Compensation until all
such Qualified Nonelective Contributions are allocated. The allocation to any
Participant shall not exceed the limits under section 415 of the Code. If two or
more Participants have identical Compensation, the allocations to them shall be
proportional.

                       (3) Qualified Nonelective Contributions for a Plan Year
shall be contributed to the Trust within twelve (12) months after the close of
such Plan Year.

                      (4) Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall only be
allocated to Participants who receive Compensation during the Plan Year for
which such contribution is made.

                  (d) The Administrator may, during a Plan Year, distribute to a
Participant (or such Participant's Beneficiary if the Participant is deceased),
any or all Excess Aggregate Contributions allocable to that Participant's
Account for that Plan Year, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan.
Such distribution may include earnings or losses (if any) attributable to such
amounts, as determined by the Administrator.

                  (e)(1) The Administrator may forfeit any or all Excess
Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of
this subsection. The amounts so forfeited shall not include any amounts that are
nonforfeitable under section 6.5.

                                       25

                     (2) Any forfeitures under this subsection shall be made in
accordance with the procedures for distributions under subsection (f) except
that such amounts shall be forfeited instead of being distributed.

                  (f)(1) The Administrator may distribute any or all Excess
Aggregate Contributions for a Plan Year in accordance with the provisions of
this subsection. Such distribution may only occur after the close of such Plan
Year and within twelve (12) months of the close of such Plan Year. Such
distributions shall be specifically designated by the Administrator as a
distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions. In the event of the complete
termination of the Plan, such distribution shall be made within twelve (12)
months after such termination. Such distribution shall include the income
allocable to the amounts so distributed, as determined under this subsection.
The Administrator may make any special allocations of earnings or losses
necessary to carry out the provisions of this subsection. A distribution of an
Excess Aggregate Contribution under this subsection may be made without regard
to any notice or consent otherwise required pursuant to sections 411(a)(11) and
417 of the Code.

                      (2)(A)The income allocable to Excess Aggregate 
Contributions distributed under this subsection shall equal the allocable gain
or loss for the Plan Year. Income includes all earnings and appreciation,
including such items as interest, dividends, rent, royalties, gains from the
sale of property, appreciation in the value of stock, bonds, annuity and life
insurance contracts, and other property, without regard to whether such
appreciation has been realized.

                         (B) The allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year may be
determined under any reasonable method consistently applied by the
Administrator. Alternatively, the Administrator may, in its discretion,
determine such allocable gain or loss for the Plan Year under the method set
forth in subparagraph (C).

                         (C) Under this method, the allocable gain or loss for 
the Plan Year is determined by multiplying the income for the Plan Year
allocable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts treated
as matching contributions by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Excess
Aggregate Contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year and the
denominator of which is the total Account balance of the Participant
attributable to employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts
treated as matching contributions as of the beginning of the Plan Year,
increased by the employee contributions, matching contributions and amounts
treated as matching contributions for the Participant for the Plan Year.

                      (3) Amounts distributed under this subsection (or other
provisions of this section) shall first be treated as distributions from the
Participant's subaccounts in the following order:

                         (A) from the Participant's Employee After-Tax
Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable
to Employee After-Tax Contributions);

                                       26

                         (B) from the Participant's Qualified Nonelective 
Contribution subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable
to Qualified Nonelective Contributions); and

                         (C) from the Participant's Company Contribution 
subaccount (if such Excess Aggregate Contribution is attributable to Company
Contributions).

                  (g) (1) The term "Excess Aggregate Contribution" shall mean,
with respect to a Plan Year, the excess of the aggregate amount of the matching
contributions and employee contributions (including any Qualified Nonelective
Contributions or elective deferrals taken into account in computing the Actual
Contribution Percentage) actually made on behalf of eligible Highly Compensated
Employees for the Plan Year over the maximum amount of such contributions
permitted under section 401(m)(2)(A) of the Code.

                      (2) The terms "employee contributions" and "matching 
contributions" shall, for purposes of this section, have the meanings set forth
in Treas. Reg. Section 1.401(m)-1(f).

                      (3) Any distribution of Excess Aggregate Contributions 
for a Plan Year shall be made to Highly Compensated Employees on the basis of
the amount of contributions by, or on behalf of, each such Highly Compensated
Employee.

         4.12 Correction of Multiple Use.

              (a) If the limitations of Treas. Reg. ss.1.401(m)-2 are
exceeded for any Plan Year, then correction shall be made in accordance with the
provisions of this section. This section shall be administered and interpreted
in accordance with sections 401(k) and 401(m) of the Code.

                  (b) Any correction required by this section shall be
calculated and administered in accordance with the provisions for correcting
Excess Contributions (in section 4.9), Excess Aggregate Contributions (in
section 4.11) or both, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion.
Any correction required by this section, to the extent possible, shall be made
only with respect to those Highly Compensated Employees who are eligible in both
the arrangement subject to section 401(k) of the Code and the Plan, as subject
to section 401(m) of the Code.

                                    ARTICLE V

                             Investment of Accounts

         5.1      Election of Investment Funds.

                  (a) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and
(d) below, upon enrollment in the Plan, each Participant shall direct that the
funds in the Participant's Account be invested in increments of one percent (1%)
in one or more of the investment options designated by the Administrator, which
may include designated investment funds, specific investments or both. The
investment choices made available shall be sufficient to allow compliance with
section 404(c) of ERISA.

                                       27

                  (b) Except as otherwise prescribed in Exhibit C to this Plan,
Matching Contributions made with respect to Plan Years beginning on and after
January 1, 1999 must be invested in Common Stock until the beginning of the
fifth (5th) Plan Year following the Plan Year for which such contributions are
made. Thereafter, a Participant may designate the investment of the Matching
Contribution funds in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the five-year restriction
prescribed in this subsection (b) shall no longer apply immediately following a
Participant's Severance from Service or on or after January 1 of the calendar
year in which a Participant attains age 55.

                  (c) Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator,
amounts held in a Participant's ESOP Contribution Account shall be invested in
Common Stock. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Participant who has
attained age 55 and completed a Period of Participation of at least ten (10)
years shall be permitted to direct that up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the
total number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole integer)
allocated to the Participant's ESOP Contribution Account as of the December 31
immediately preceding each Plan Year during the Qualified Election Period may be
invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan in
accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) above. With respect to a
qualified Participant's final diversification election, fifty percent (50%) is
substituted for twenty-five percent (25%) in determining the amount subject to
the diversification election. Any direction to diversify hereunder may be made
within 90 days after the close of each Plan Year during the Participant's
Qualified Election Period, as defined below. Any direction made during the
applicable 90-day period following any Plan Year may be revoked or modified at
any time during such 90-day period. The diversification of the ESOP Contribution
Account as provided herein shall be made through the sale by the Trustee of the
number of shares of Common Stock directed by the Participant. The amount that
may be invested among the otherwise available investment options under the Plan
shall be equal to the proceeds of such sale. Any such diversification shall be
implemented no later than the 180th day of the Plan Year in which the
Participant's direction is made. All such directions shall be in accordance with
any notice, rulings, or regulations or other guidance issued by the Internal
Revenue Service with respect to section 401(a)(28)(B) of the Code. For the
purposes of this section, the term "Qualified Election Period" shall mean the
six (6) Plan Year period beginning with the later of the Plan Year in which the
Participant attains age 55 or completes a Period of Participation of ten (10)
years.

                  (d) Notwithstanding subsection (e) below, the Administrator
shall maintain a General Motors Class H Stock Fund ("Fund H") and Raytheon
Company Class A Stock Fund ("Fund I") as investment options under the Plan,
subject to the limitations prescribed in this subsection (d), for four (4)
complete Plan Years following the Effective Date; provided, however, that if at
any time prior to the expiration of such four (4) year period, the aggregate
fair market value of the assets invested in either Fund H or Fund I falls below
five percent (5%) of the highest fair market value of the assets invested in
Fund H or Fund I, respectively, the Administrator may, with six (6) months

                                       28

written notice to affected Participants, eliminate Fund H or Fund I, as
applicable, as investment options under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Administrator may eliminate one or both funds at any time if the
Administrator determines in good faith that such elimination is necessary under
applicable law (including without limitation the prudence requirements of
ERISA). When Fund H and Fund I are eliminated in accordance with this section
5.1(d), Participants with assets invested in Fund H or Fund I, as applicable,
shall direct the transfer of such assets to other funds available under the Plan
or, if no such election is made, the Administrator shall transfer such assets to
a low risk fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its
discretion. The only assets that may be invested in Fund H or Fund I are the
General Motors Class H Stock Fund and Raytheon Company Class A Stock Fund,
respectively, directly transferred to the Plan in connection with the mergers
identified in Section 1.1(b). A Participant may not direct that any other funds
in the Participant's Account be invested in Fund H or Fund I.

                  (e) In its discretion, the Administrator may from time to time
designate new funds and, where appropriate, preclude investment in existing
funds and provide for the transfer of Accounts invested in those funds to other
funds selected by the Participant or, if no such election is made, to a low risk
fixed income fund as determined by the Administrator in its discretion.

                  (f) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and
(d) above, a Participant's investment election will apply to the entire Account
of the Participant.

                  (g) In establishing rules and procedures under section 5.1, 
the following shall apply: (1) Each Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee
shall affirmatively elect to self-direct the investment of assets in his or her
Account, but such election may provide for default investments in the absence of
specific directions from such Participant, Beneficiary or Alternate Payee.

                      (2) The investment directions of a Participant shall 
continue to apply after that Participant's death or incompetence until the
Beneficiary (or, if there is more than one Beneficiary for that Account, all of
the Beneficiaries), guardian or other representatives provide contrary
direction.

                      (3) The Administrator may decline to implement investment
designations if such investment, in the Administrator's judgment:

                          (A) would result in a prohibited transaction under
section 4975 of the Code;

                          (B) would generate income taxable to the Trust Fund; 

                          (C) would not be in accordance with the Plan and 
Trust; 

                                       29

                          (D) would cause a Fiduciary to maintain the indicia 
of ownership of any assets of the Trust Fund outside the jurisdiction of the
district courts of the United States other than as permitted by section 404(b)
of ERISA and Labor Reg. ss.2550.404(b)-1;

                          (E) would jeopardize the Plan's tax qualified status
under the Code; 

                          (F) could result in a loss in excess of the amount
credited to the Account; or

                          (G) would violate any other requirements of the Code
or ERISA.

                      (4) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c)
and (d) above, the Administrator may establish reasonable restrictions on the
frequency with which investment directions may be given, consistent with section
404(c) of ERISA.

                      (5) The Administrator may establish limits on the use of
brokers, investment counsel or other advisors that may be utilized, including
specifying that all investments must be made through a designated broker or
brokers.

                      (6) The Administrator may establish limits on the types 
of investments that are permitted.

                  (h) Except as otherwise prescribed in subsections (b), (c) and
(d) above, the Administrator shall establish such rules and procedures as may be
advisable or necessary to carry out the provisions of this section, with such
rules and procedures being consistent with section 404(c) of ERISA.

                  (i) The Administrator shall establish such rules and 
procedures as may be advisable or necessary to reasonably ensure that all
transactions involving the investment funds comply with all applicable laws,
including the securities laws.

         5.2 Change in Investment Allocation of Future Deferrals. Except as
otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect
to change the investment allocation of future contributions effective as of the
first Trade Day subsequent to notice to the Recordkeeper by which it is
administratively feasible to make such change. Any changes must be made either
in increments of one percent (1%) of the Participant's Account or in a specified
whole dollar amount and must result in a total investment of one hundred percent
(100%) of the Participant's Account.

                                       30

         5.3 Transfer of Account Balances Between Investment Funds. Except as
otherwise prescribed in sections 5.1(b), (c) and (d), each Participant may elect
to transfer all or a portion of the amount in his or her Account between
investment funds effective as of the first Trade Day following notice to the
Recordkeeper by which it is administratively feasible to carry out such
transfer. In determining the amount of the transfer, the Participant's Account
shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which notice is
received; provided, however, that in any case where the notice is received after
4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever is in effect on the date
of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the
next Trade Day. Such transfers must be made in either one percent (1%)
increments of the entire Account or in a specified amount in whole dollars and,
as of the completion of the transfer, must result in investment of one hundred
percent (100%) of the Account. Transfers shall be effected by telephone notice
to the Recordkeeper.

         5.4 Ownership Status of Funds. The Trustee shall be the owner of record
of the Plan assets. The Administrator shall have records maintained as of the
Valuation Date for each investment option allocating a portion of the investment
option to each Participant who has elected that his or her Account be invested
in such investment option. The records shall reflect each Participant's portion
of Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A common stock and General Motors Class
H common stock in cash and unitized shares of stock and shall reflect each
Participant's portion of all other investment options as may be established by
the Administrator in a cash amount.

         5.5 Voting Rights. Participants whose Accounts are invested in Common
Stock or Raytheon Company Class A common stock on the last business day of the
second month preceding the record date (the "Voting Eligibility Date") for any
meeting of stockholders have the right to instruct the Trustee as to voting at
such meeting. The number of votes is determined by dividing the value of the
shares in the Participant's Account by the closing price of the respective
classes of stock on the Voting Eligibility Date. If the Trustee has not received
instructions from a Participant as to voting of shares within a specified time,
then the Trustee shall not vote those shares. If a Participant furnishes the
Trustee with a signed vote direction card without indicating a voting choice
thereon, the Trustee shall vote the Participant's shares as recommended by
management. In addition, each Participant shall have the right to accept or
reject any tender or exchange offer for shares of the respective classes of
stock. The Trustee shall vote (or tender or exchange) all combined fractional
shares of the respective classes of stock to the extent possible in the same
proportion as the shares which have been voted (or tendered or exchanged) by
each Participant. Any instructions as to voting (or tender or exchange) received
from an individual Participant shall be held in confidence by the Trustee and
shall not be divulged to the Adopting Employers or to any officer or employee
thereof or to any other person.

                                       31

         5.6      Allocation of Earnings.

                  (a)(1) The Administrator, as of each Valuation Date, shall
adjust the amounts credited to the Accounts (including Accounts for persons who
are no longer Employees) so that the total of such Account balances equals the
fair market value of the Trust Fund assets as of such Valuation Date. Except as
otherwise provided herein, any changes in the fair market value of the Trust
Fund assets since the preceding Valuation Date shall be charged or credited to
each Account in the ratio that the balance in each such Account as of the
preceding Valuation Date bears to the balances in all Accounts as of that
Valuation Date with appropriate adjustments to reflect any distributions,
allocations or similar adjustments to such Account or Accounts since that
Valuation Date.

                     (2) To the extent that separate investment funds are  
established (as provided in section 5.1(a)), the adjustments required by
subsection (a)(1) shall be made by applying subsection (a)(1) separately for
each such investment fund so that any changes in the net worth of each such
investment fund are charged or credited to the portion of each Account invested
in such investment fund in the ratio that the portion of each such Account
invested in such investment fund as of the preceding Valuation Date (reduced by
any distributions made from that portion of such Account since that Valuation
Date) bears to the total amount credited to such investment funds as of that
Valuation Date (reduced by distributions made from such investment fund since
that Valuation Date).

                     (3) Interim valuations, in accordance with the foregoing
procedure, may be made at such time or times as the Administrator directs.

                  (b) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, direct the
Trustee to segregate and separately invest any Trust Fund assets. If any assets
are segregated in this fashion, the earnings or losses on such assets shall be
determined apart from other Trust assets and shall be adjusted on each Valuation
Date, or at such other times as the Administrator deems necessary, in accordance
with this section.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                     Vesting

         6.1 Elective Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover
Contribution and Qualified Nonelective Contribution Accounts. Each Participant
shall have a nonforfeitable right to all amounts in the Participant's Elective
Deferral, Employee After-Tax Contribution, Rollover Contribution and Qualified
Nonelective Contribution Accounts.

         6.2 Matching, ESOP and Employer Contribution Accounts. Except as
otherwise prescribed in Exhibit C to this Plan, each Participant shall have a
nonforfeitable right to his or her entire Account, including the Participant's
Matching, ESOP and Employer Contribution Accounts.

                                       32

         6.3      Forfeitures.

                  (a) In the event that a Participant incurs a Severance from
Service before attaining a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching, ESOP or
Employer Contributions, the Matching, ESOP or Employer Contribution Accounts
will be forfeited as of the first day of the month immediately following the
earliest of: (i) the date on which the Participant incurs a Period of Severance
of five (5) consecutive years; (ii) death; or (iii) the date on which the
Participant's Elective Deferral Account is distributed in accordance with
ARTICLE VIII. Forfeitures of Matching, ESOP or Employer Contributions will be
used to reduce future contributions of the Adopting Employers to the Plan.

                  (b) If, in connection with his or her Severance from Service,
a Participant received a distribution of a portion of his or her entire Account
when he or she did not have a nonforfeitable right to his or her Matching, ESOP
or Employer Contribution Account, the Matching, ESOP or Employer Contributions
that were forfeited, unadjusted by any subsequent gains or losses, shall be
restored if he or she again becomes an Employee before incurring a Period of
Severance of five (5) consecutive years.

         6.4      Break in Service Rules

                  (a) Periods of Service. In determining the length of a Period
of Service, the Administrator shall include all Periods of Service, except the
following Periods of Service shall not be taken into account:

(1) in the case of a Participant who has never had a vested account balance, the
Period of Service before any Period of Severance which equals or exceeds five
(5) consecutive years; and (2) in the case of a Participant who has had a vested
account balance and who has incurred a Period of Severance which equals or
exceeds five (5) years, the Period of Service after such Period of Severance
shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the nonforfeitable
interest of such Participant in the Matching or ESOP Contributions allocated to
his or her Account before such Period of Severance.

                  (b) Periods of Severance. In determining the length of a
Period of Service, the Administrator shall include any period of time beginning
on an Employee's Severance from Service Date and ending on the date on which he
or she is next credited with an Hour of Service, provided that such Hour of
Service is credited within the twelve- (12) consecutive month period following
such Severance from Service Date.

                  (c) Other Periods. In making the determinations described in
subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the second, third, and fourth
consecutive years of a Layoff (from the first anniversary of the last day paid
to the fourth anniversary of the last day paid) and any period in excess of one
(1) year of an Authorized Leave of Absence shall be regarded as neither a Period
of Service nor a Period of Severance.

                                       33

                                   ARTICLE VII

                             In-Service Withdrawals

         7.1      Elective Deferrals and Qualified Nonelective Contributions.

                  (a) Subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in section
7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a portion of his or her Elective Deferral
Account or Qualified Nonelective Contribution Account either (1) on or after
attainment of age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2), or (2) in the event of a
hardship.

                  (b) In order to be entitled to a hardship withdrawal under
this section, a Participant must satisfy the requirements of both subsection (c)
and subsection (d). Whether a Participant is entitled to a withdrawal under this
section is to be determined by the Administrator in accordance with
nondiscriminatory and objective standards.

                  (c) (1) A Participant will be deemed to have experienced an
immediate and heavy financial need necessary to satisfy the requirements of this
subsection if the withdrawal is on account of:

                          (A) medical  expenses  described in section  213(d) 
of the Code incurred by the Participant, the Participant's spouse or any
dependents of the Participant;

                          (B) the purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a
principal resident of the Participant;

                          (C) payment of tuition for the next twelve (12) months
of post-secondary education for the Participant or his or her spouse, children
or dependents; or

                          (D) the need to prevent the eviction of the 
Participant from his or her principal residence or the foreclosure on the
mortgage of the Participant's principal residence.

                      (2) The  Administrator may, on the basis of such evidence
it deems relevant, determine that the Participant has experienced an immediate
and heavy financial need for reasons other than those enumerated above in this
subsection.

                  (d)(1) A withdrawal under this subsection will be deemed
necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need of the Participant if
it satisfies the requirements of this subsection. To the extent the amount of
the withdrawal would be in excess of the amount required to relieve the
financial need of the Participant or to the extent such need may be satisfied
from other resources that are reasonably available to the Participant, such
withdrawal shall not satisfy the requirements of this subsection. For purposes
of this subsection, a Participant's resources shall be deemed to include those
assets of his or her spouse or minor children that are reasonably available to
the Participant.

                                       34

                     (2) A withdrawal may be treated as necessary to satisfy a 
financial need if the Administrator reasonably relies upon the Participant's
representation that the need cannot be relieved:

                        (A) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance
or otherwise; 

                        (B) by reasonable liquidation of the Participant's
assets to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an immediate and 
heavy financial need;

                        (C) by cessation of Elective Deferrals under the Plan 
for at least twelve (12) months after receipt of the hardship withdrawal; or

                        (D) by other distributions or nontaxable (at the time 
of the loan) loans from plans maintained by the Adopting Employers or by any
other employer or by borrowing from commercial sources on reasonable commercial
terms.

                  (e) If a Participant receives a withdrawal for reasons of
financial hardship, the Participant's Elective Deferrals shall be reduced to
four percent (4%) (or such lower percentage as the Participant shall thereafter
designate), if in excess thereof as of the date of the distribution, and shall
not be increased during the twelve (12) months immediately subsequent to the
date of distribution.

         7.2 Employee After-Tax Contributions. Subject to the terms and
conditions prescribed in section 7.5, a Participant may withdraw all or a
portion of his or her Employee After-Tax Contribution Account.

         7.3 Matching Contributions and Employer Contributions. Subject to the
terms and conditions prescribed in section 7.5, after completion of a Period of

         8.1      General.

                  (a) Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit B to this Plan (or

section 401(a)(9)(G) of the Code. Distributions shall comply with the
regulations under section 401(a)(9) of the Code, including Treas. Reg.

         8.2      Commencement of Benefits.

                  (a) A Participant (or Beneficiary) shall be entitled to a

                                       36

                  (c) If the value of the nonforfeitable portion of the
Participant's Account exceeds the maximum amount prescribed in section
411(a)(11) of the Code, then payment to the Participant shall not commence
without the Participant's written consent, except as otherwise required by
Section 8.2(f). Such written consent must be obtained no more than ninety (90)
days before the commencement of the distribution. Notwithstanding the preceding
provisions of this subsection (c), all distributions to a Participant's
Beneficiary shall commence within a reasonable period of time following the
Participant's death (no consent of the Beneficiary is required).

                  (d) Unless a Participant elects otherwise, distribution to the
Participant shall commence no later than sixty (60) days after the close of the
Plan Year in which the latest of the following events occurs:

                     (1) attainment by the Participant of Normal Retirement Age;

                     (2) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which

Participant's Account attributable to Elective Deferrals and Qualified
Nonelective Contributions shall generally commence in accordance with the
general provisions of this section 8.2, but in no event before the earliest of:

                     (1) the Participant's Severance from Service;

                     (2) the Participant's attainment of age fifty-nine
and one-half (59 1/2); 

                     (3) the termination of the Plan without establishment or
maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock
ownership plan);

                    (4) the disposition of substantially all of the assets used
by the Employer in a trade or business of the Employer but only with respect to
an Employee who continues employment with the entity acquiring such assets;

                    (5) the disposition of the Employer's interest in a  
subsidiary, but only with respect to an Employee who continues employment with
such subsidiary.

                  (f) A Participant who has attained age seventy and one-half
(70 1/2) and is subject to the mandatory distribution requirements of section
401(a)(9) of the Code shall receive a lump sum distribution of his or her entire
Account at the time distributions must commence in order to comply with such
requirements. If additional amounts are allocated to such Participant's Account
following such lump sum distribution, additional lump sum distributions of his
or her entire Account shall be made at such times any mandatory distributions
are required to comply with section 401(a)(9) of the Code. Such payments shall
be made notwithstanding any contrary provisions of the Plan or election made by
such Participant.

                                       37

                  (g) If a Participant dies before the time when distribution is
considered to have commenced in accordance with applicable regulations, then any
remaining nonforfeitable portion of the Participant's Account shall be
distributed within five (5) years after the Participant's death. If a
distribution is considered to have commenced in accordance with the applicable
regulations before the Participant's death, the remaining nonforfeitable portion
of the Participant's Account shall be distributed at least as rapidly as under
the method of distribution being used as of the date of the Participant's death.

         8.3 Form of Distribution.

                  (a) Distributions under the Plan shall be made only in the
form of a single, lump-sum payment of the entire nonforfeitable portion of the
Participant's Account.

                  (b) Distribution of the nonforfeitable portion of the
Participant's Account that is invested in Common Stock, Raytheon Company Class A
common stock (if any) or General Motors Class H common stock (if any) shall be

All other distributions under the Plan shall be made in cash (or cash
equivalent).

         8.4 Determination of Amount of Distribution. In determining the amount
of any distribution hereunder, the nonforfeitable portion of a Participant's
Account shall be valued as of the close of business on the Trade Day on which
notice is received; provided, however, that in any case where the telephone
notice is received after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (daylight or standard, whichever
is in effect on the date of the call), the Account shall be valued as of the
close of business on the next Trade Day.

         8.5      Direct Rollovers.

                  (a) A Participant may elect that all or any portion of a

procedures as it deems reasonable with respect to Direct Rollovers. The
Administrator may change such rules and procedures from time to time and shall
not be bound by any previous rules and procedures it has applied.

                                       38

qualified trust is part of a plan that permits acceptance of Direct Rollovers or
an annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code. In the case of a Direct

term "Eligible Retirement Plan" shall only include an individual retirement
account described in section 408(a) of the Code and an individual retirement
annuity (other than an endowment contract) described in section 408(b) of the
Code.

                      (4) Eligible Rollover Distribution. Any distribution under
the Plan to a Participant, a Participant's spouse or a Participant's former

                          (A) Any distribution to the extent the distribution is

Distributees of Eligible Rollover Distributions with a written notice designed
to comply with the requirements of section 402(f) of the Code. Such notice shall
be provided within a reasonable period of time before making an Eligible
Rollover Distribution.

                                       39

                  (b) Any elections concerning the payment of benefits under
this ARTICLE shall be made on a form prescribed by the Administrator. The
Participant or other Distributee shall submit a completed form to the
Administrator at least thirty (30) days before payment is scheduled to commence,
unless the Administrator agrees to a shorter time period. Any election made
under this section shall be revocable until thirty (30) days before payment is
scheduled to commence.

                  (c) An election to have payment made in a Direct Rollover
shall only be valid if the Participant or other Distributee provides adequate
information to the Administrator for the implementation of such Direct Rollover
and such reasonable verification as the Administrator may require that the
transferee is an Eligible Retirement Plan.

         8.7      Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.

                  (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan,
payments shall be made in accordance with any judgment, decree or order
determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

                  (b) (1) If the Plan receives a Domestic Relations Order, the
Administrator shall promptly notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee of
the receipt of such order and of the Plan's procedures for determining whether
such order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. The Administrator shall,
within a reasonable period after receipt of such order, determine whether it is
a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and notify the Participant and each
Alternate Payee of that determination.

                      (2) During any period in which the issue of whether a 
Domestic Relations Order is a Qualified Domestic Relations Order is being
determined, the Administrator shall separately account for the amounts that
would have been payable to the Alternate Payee during such period if the order
had been determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

                  (c) (1) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of
this subsection only if such order clearly specifies the following:

                          (A) the name and last known mailing address (if any) 
of the  Participant and the name and mailing address of each Alternate Payee 
covered by the order;

                          (B) the amount or the percentage of the Participant's
benefits to be paid by the Plan to each such Alternate Payee or the manner in
which such amount or percentage is to be determined;

                          (C) the number of payments or period to which such 
order applies; and

                          (D) each plan to which such order applies.

                                       40

                      (2) A Domestic Relations Order meets the requirements of
this subsection only if such order does not:

                          (A) require the Plan to provide any type or form of
benefit or any option not otherwise provided under the Plan;

                         (B) require the Plan to provide increased benefits 
(determined on the basis of actuarial value); and

                         (C) does not require the payment of benefits to an 
Alternate Payee that is required to be paid to another Alternate Payee under
another order previously determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

                  (d) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing
to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order
requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee:

                      (1) in the case of any payment before a Participant has 
separated from service, on or after the date on which the Participant attains
(or would have attained) the Earliest Retirement Date;

                      (2) as if the Participant had retired on the date on
which such payment is to begin under such order (but taking into account only
the present value of the benefits actually accrued and not taking into account
the present value of any employer subsidy for early retirement); and

                      (3) in any form in which such benefits may be paid under
the Plan to the Participant (other than in the form of a qualified joint and
survivor annuity with respect to the Alternate Payee and his or her subsequent
spouse).

                  (e) A domestic relations order shall not be treated as failing
to meet the requirements of section 8.7(c)(2)(A) solely because such order
requires that payment of benefits be made to an Alternate Payee at a date before
the Participant is entitled to receive a distribution. Such distribution shall
be made to such Alternate Payee notwithstanding any contrary provision of the
Plan.

                  (f) The following terms shall have the meanings specified:

                      (1) Alternate Payee. Any spouse, former spouse, child or 
other dependent of a Participant who is recognized by a Domestic Relations Order
as having a right to benefits under the Plan with respect to such Participant.

                     (2) Domestic Relations Order.  A judgment, decree or order
relating to child support, alimony or marital property rights, as defined in
section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code.

                     (3) Earliest Retirement Date. The earlier of:

                         (A) the date on which the  Participant is entitled to 
a distribution under the Plan; or

                                       41

                         (B) the later of:

                             (i) the date the Participant attains age fifty
(50); or

                             (ii) the earliest date on which the Participant 
could begin receiving benefits under the Plan if the Participant separated 
from service.

                     (4) Qualified Domestic Relations Order. A Domestic 
Relations Order that satisfies the requirements of subsection (c) and section
414(p)(1)(A) of the Code.

                  (g) If an Alternate Payee entitled to payment under this
section is the spouse or former spouse of a Participant and payment will
otherwise be made in an Eligible Rollover Distribution, then such spouse or
former spouse may elect that all, or any portion, of such payment shall instead
be transferred as a Direct Rollover. Such Direct Rollover shall be governed by
the requirements of section 8.5.

                  (h) If a Domestic Relations Order directs that payment be made
to an Alternate Payee before the Participant's Earliest Retirement Date and such
Domestic Relations Order otherwise qualifies as a Qualified Domestic Relations
Order, then the Domestic Relations Order shall be treated as a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order and such payment shall be made to the Alternate Payee,
even though the Participant is not entitled to receive a distribution under the
Plan because he or she continues to be an Employee of the Employer.

                  (i) This section shall be interpreted and administered in 
accordance with section 414(p) of the Code.

         8.8      Designation of Beneficiary.

                  (a) A Participant may designate a Beneficiary (including
successive or contingent Beneficiaries) in accordance with this section 8.8.
Such designation shall be on a form prescribed by the Administrator, may include
successive or contingent Beneficiaries, shall be effective upon receipt by the
Administrator and shall comply with such additional conditions and requirements
as the Administrator shall prescribe. The interest of any person as Beneficiary
shall automatically cease on his or her death and any further payments from the
Plan shall be made to the next successive or contingent Beneficiary.

                  (b) A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary
designation from time to time, without the consent or knowledge of any
previously designated Beneficiary, by filing a new Beneficiary designation form
with the Administrator in accordance with subsection (a).

                  (c) If a Participant dies without a designated Beneficiary
surviving, the person or persons in the following class of successive
beneficiaries surviving, any testamentary devise or bequest to the contrary
notwithstanding, shall be deemed to be the Participant's Beneficiary: the
Participant's (1) spouse, (2) children and issue of deceased children by right

                                       42

of representation, (3) parents, (4) brothers and sisters and issue of deceased
brothers and sisters by right of representation, or (5) executors or
administrators. If no Beneficiary can be located during the period of seven (7)
years from the date of death, the Participant's Account shall be treated in the
same manner as a forfeiture under section 6.3(a).

                  (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section,
if a Participant is married at the time of his or her death, such Participant
shall be deemed to have designated his or her surviving spouse as Beneficiary,
unless such Participant has filed a Beneficiary designation under subsection (a)
and such spouse has consented in writing to the election (acknowledging the
effect of the election and specifically acknowledging the nonspouse Beneficiary)
and such consent was witnessed by either the Administrator (or its delegate) or
a notary public. Such consent shall not be required if the Participant does not
have a spouse or the spouse cannot be located. Such consent shall not be
required if the Participant is legally separated from his or her spouse or the
Participant has been abandoned (under applicable local law) and the Participant
has a court order to such effect, unless a Qualified Domestic Relations Order
provides otherwise. If the Participant's spouse is legally incompetent to give
consent, the spouse's legal guardian (even if the guardian is the Participant)
may give consent.

         8.9      Lost Participant or Beneficiary.

                  (a) All Participants and Beneficiaries shall have the
obligation to keep the Administrator informed of their current address until
such time as all benefits due have been paid.

                  (b) If any amount is payable to a Participant or Beneficiary
who cannot be located to receive such payment, such amount may, at the
discretion of the Administrator, be forfeited; provided, however, that if such
Participant or Beneficiary subsequently claims the forfeited amount, it shall be
reinstated and paid to such Participant or Beneficiary. Such reinstatement may,
in the Administrator's sole discretion, be made from contributions by one or
more Adopting Employers, forfeitures or Trust earnings, and shall be treated as
a special allocation that supersedes the normal allocation rules.

                  (c) If the Administrator has not, after due diligence, located
a Participant or Beneficiary who is entitled to payment within three (3) years
after the Participant's Severance from Service, then, at the discretion of the
Administrator, such person may be presumed deceased for purposes of this Plan.
Any such presumption of death shall be final, conclusive and binding on all
parties.

         8.10 Payments to Incompetents. If a Participant or Beneficiary entitled
to receive any benefits hereunder is adjudicated to be legally incapable of
giving valid receipt and discharge for such benefits, the benefits may be paid
to the duly authorized personal representative of such Participant or
Beneficiary.

                                       43

         8.11 Offsets. Any transfers or payments made from a Participant's
Account to a person other than the Participant pursuant to the provisions of
this Plan shall reduce the Participant's Account and offset any amounts
otherwise due to such Participant. Such transfers or payments shall not be
considered a forfeiture for purposes of the Plan.

         8.12 Income Tax Withholding. To the extent required by section 3405 of
the Code, distributions and withdrawals from the Plan shall be subject to
federal income tax withholding.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                      Loans

         9.1 Availability of Loans. Participants may borrow against all or a
portion of the nonforfeitable balance in the Participant's Account, subject to
the limitations set forth in this ARTICLE. Participants who have incurred a
Severance from Service will not be eligible for a Plan loan.

         9.2 Minimum Amount of Loan.  No loan of less than five hundred dollars 
($500) will be permitted.

9.3 Maximum Amount of Loan. No loan in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the
Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance will be permitted. In addition,
limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code and any other requirements of
applicable statute or regulation will be applied. Under the current requirements
of the Internal Revenue Code, a loan cannot exceed the lesser of one-half (1/2)
of the value of the Participant's nonforfeitable Account balance or fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000) reduced by the excess of (a) the highest outstanding
balance of loans from the Plan during the one-year period ending on the day
before the date on which such loan was made over (b) the outstanding balance of
loans from the Plan on the date on which such loan was made.

         9.4  Effective Date of Loans.  Loans will be effective as specified in
the  Administrator's rules then in effect.

         9.5 Repayment Schedule. The Participant may select a repayment schedule
of one, two, three, four or five (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) years. If the loan is used to
acquire any dwelling which, within a reasonable time is to be used (determined
at the time the loan is made) as the principal residence of the Participant, the
repayment period may be extended up to fifteen (15) years at the election of the
Participant. All repayments will be made through payroll deductions in
accordance with the loan agreement executed at the time the loan is made, except
that, in the event of the sale of all or a portion of the business of the
Employer or one of the Adopting Employers, or other unusual circumstances, the
Administrator, through uniform and equitable rules, may establish other means of
repayment. The loan agreement will permit repayment of the entire outstanding
balance in one lump-sum and the repayment of any portion of the outstanding
balance at any time (with appropriate adjustment to the remaining payment
schedule as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, on a
uniform and nondiscriminatory basis). The repayment schedule shall provide for
substantially level amortization of the loan. Loan repayments will be suspended
under this Plan as permitted under section 414(u) of the Code.

                                       44

         9.6 Limit on Number of Loans. Except as otherwise provided herein, no
more than two (2) loans may be outstanding at any time. If a Participant has
more than two (2) loans outstanding on January 1, 1999, or thereafter on account
of a transfer of assets from another plan in accordance with section 4.5, the
Participant may not obtain a new loan until he or she has less than two (2)
loans outstanding. The Administrator may, notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, alter the requirements of this section 9.6, or sections 9.3 or 9.5.

         9.7 Interest Rate. The interest rate for a loan pursuant to this
ARTICLE will be equal to the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on
the first business day in December, March, June and September of each year. The
rate published on the first business day in December will apply to loans which
are made at any time during the period January 1 through March 31; the rate
published on the first business day of March will apply to loans which are made
at any time during the period April 1 through June 30; the rate published on the
first business day in June will apply to loans which are made at anytime during
the period July 1 through September 30; the rate published on the first business
day in September will apply to loans which are made at any time during the
period October 1 through December 31. For purposes of this section 9.7, a loan
is considered to be made when the loan proceeds are made available to the
Participant.

         9.8 Effect Upon Participant's Account. Upon the granting of a loan to a
Participant by the Administrator, the allocations in the Participant's Account
to the respective investment funds will be reduced on a pro rata basis and
replaced by the loan balance which will be designated as an asset in the
Account. Such reduction shall be effected by reducing the Participant's Account
in the following sequence, with no reduction of the succeeding Accounts until
prior Accounts have been exhausted by the loan: Matching Contribution Account;
Elective Deferral Account; ESOP Contribution Account, Rollover Contribution
Account; and Employee After-Tax Contribution Account. Upon repayment of the
principal and interest, the loan balance will be reduced, the Participant
Accounts will be increased in the reverse order in which they were exhausted by
the loan, and the loan payments will be allocated to the respective investment
funds in accordance with the investment election then in effect.

         9.9 Effect of Severance From Service and Nonpayment. In the event that
a loan remains outstanding upon the Severance from Service of a Participant, the
Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the outstanding
loan. In any case where payments on the outstanding loan are not made within
ninety (90) days of the Participant's Severance from Service Date, the amount of
any unpaid principal will be deducted from the Participant's account and
reported as a distribution. If, as a result of layoff or Authorized Leave of
Absence, a Participant, although still in a Period of Service, is not being
compensated through the Employer's payroll system, loan payments will be
suspended until the earliest of the first pay date after the Participant returns
to active employment with the Employer, the Participant's Severance from Service
Date, or the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date of the suspension.
In the event the Participant does not return to active employment with the
Employer, the Participant will be given the option of continuing to repay the
outstanding loan. If the Participant fails to resume payments on the loan, the
outstanding loan will be reported as a taxable distribution. In no event,
however, shall the loan be deducted from the Participant's Account earlier than
the date on which the Participant (i) incurs a Severance from Service, or (ii)
attains age fifty-nine and one-half (59 1/2).

                      Contribution and Benefit Limitations

         10.1 Contribution Limits.

              (a) The Annual Additions that may be allocated to a
Participant's Account for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of:

                  (1) thirty thousand dollars ($30,000); or

                  (2) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Participant's 
Compensation for that Limitation Year.

              (b) If the Employer maintains any other Defined Contribution
Plans then the limitations in subsection (a) shall be computed with reference to
the aggregate Annual Additions for each Participant from all such Defined
Contribution Plans.

              (c) If the Annual Additions for a Participant would exceed the
limits specified in this section, then the Annual Additions under this Plan for
that Participant shall be reduced to the extent necessary to prevent such limits
from being exceeded. Such reduction shall be made in accordance with section
10.4.

         10.2  Overall Limits.

               (a) With respect to Limitation Years beginning before January 1,
2000, if a Participant is participating in both a Defined Contribution Plan
and a Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer, then the sum of the Defined
Contribution Fraction and the Defined Benefit Fraction for any Limitation Year
shall not exceed 1.0.

               (b) If the sum of the Defined Contribution Fraction and the
Defined Benefit Fraction would exceed 1.0, then the annual benefits under the
Defined Benefit Plan shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the sum of
such fractions does not exceed 1.0.

         10.3 Annual Adjustments to Limits. The dollar limits for Annual
Additions and the dollar limits in the Defined Benefit Fraction and Defined
Contribution Fraction shall be adjusted for cost-of-living to the extent
permitted under section 415 of the Code.

         10.4 Excess Amounts.

              (a) The foregoing limits shall be limits on the allocation
that may be made to a Participant's Account in any Limitation Year. If an excess
Annual Addition would otherwise result from allocation of forfeitures,
reasonable errors in determining Compensation or other comparable reasons, then
the Administrator may take any (or all) of the following steps to prevent the
excess Annual Additions from being allocated:

                                       46

                  (1) return any contributions from the Participant, as long as
such return is nondiscriminatory;

                  (2) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account
and apply the balance of the suspense account against Matching or ESOP
Contributions for that Participant made in succeeding years;

                  (3) hold the excess amounts unallocated in a suspense account
and apply the balance of the suspense account against succeeding year Matching
or ESOP Contributions;

                  (4) reallocate the excess amounts to other Participants.

              (b) Any suspense account established under this section shall
not be credited with income or loss unless otherwise directed by the
Administrator. If a suspense account under this section is to be applied in a
subsequent Limitation Year, then the amounts in the suspense account shall be
applied before any Annual Additions (other than forfeitures) are made for such
Limitation Year.

         10.5 Definitions.

Contributions, ESOP Contributions, Qualified Nonelective Contributions and
Elective Deferrals);

                      (B) Employee contributions;

                      (C) forfeitures; and

419A(d)(2).

                  (2)(A) Defined Benefit Fraction.  A fraction, the numerator 
of which is the Projected Annual Benefit of the Participant under all Defined
Benefit Plans of the Employer (determined as of the close of the Limitation
Year) and the denominator of which is the Projected Annual Benefit the
Participant would have under such plans (determined as of the close of the
Limitation Year) if such plans provided an annual benefit equal to the lesser
of:

                         (i) the product of 1.25 multiplied by ninety thousand 
dollars ($90,000); or

                         (ii) the product of 1.4  multiplied by one hundred 
percent (100%) of the Participant's average Compensation for the Participant's
three (3) consecutive Years of Service that produce the highest average
Compensation.

                                       47

                     (B) For purposes of determining the Defined Benefit

Corporation or one of its affiliates or (ii) who transferred to an Adopting
Company from General Motors Corporation or one of its affiliates after such date
and before December 1, 1998, service for and Compensation received from General
Motors Corporation and its affiliates, if any, shall be taken into account, and
the Projected Annual Benefit under any Defined Benefit Plan of the Employer
shall not be reduced as a result of the transfer of any assets or liabilities
from a Defined Benefit Plan maintained by General Motors Corporation and its
affiliates.

                  (3) Defined Benefit Plan.  Any plan qualified under section
401(a) of the Code that is not a Defined Contribution Plan.

                  (4)(A) Defined Contribution Fraction.  A fraction, the 
numerator of which is the sum of the Annual Additions to the Participant's
Accounts as of the close of the Limitation Year, and the denominator of which is
equal to the sum of the lesser of the following amounts determined for such
Limitation Year and for each prior year of service with the Employer:

                         (i) the product of 1.25  multiplied by thirty thousand
dollars ($30,000); or

                         (ii) the product of 1.4  multiplied by twenty-five 
percent (25%) of the Participant's Compensation.

                       (B) For purposes of determining the Defined Contribution

Annual Additions made by General Motors Corporation or any of its affiliates
shall not be taken into account.

                  (5) Defined Contribution Plan. A plan qualified under section
401(a) of the Code that provides an individual account for each Participant and
benefits based solely on the amount contributed to the Participant's Account,

Participants which may be allocated to such Participant's account.

                  (6) Limitation Year. The Plan Year, until the Employer adopts
a different Limitation Year.

                  (7) Projected Annual Benefit. The annual benefit to which a 
Participant would be entitled, assuming:

                      (A) the Participant continues in employment until Normal
Retirement Age under the Plan;

                      (B) the Participant's Compensation for the Limitation 
Year remains the same until such Normal Retirement Age; and

                                       48

                       (C) all other relevant factors under the Plan for the 
Limitation Year will remain constant.

                  (b) For purposes of this ARTICLE, the term "Compensation"
shall mean all amounts paid to an Employee for personal service actually
rendered to the Employer, including, but not limited to, wages, salary,
commissions, bonuses, overtime and other premium pay as specified in Reg. ss.
1.415-2(d)(2), but excluding deferred compensation, stock options, and other
distributions that receive special tax treatment as specified in Reg. ss.
1.415-2(d)(3). For Plan Years beginning after 1997, Compensation for this
purpose will include salary reduction amounts under section 125 cafeteria plans
and section 401(k), 403(b) and 457 plans. This definition shall be interpreted
in a manner consistent with the requirements of section 415 of the Code.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                                 Top-Heavy Rules

         11.1 General. This ARTICLE shall only be applicable if the Plan becomes
a Top-Heavy Plan under section 416 of the Code. If the Plan does not become a
Top-Heavy Plan, then none of the provisions of this ARTICLE shall be operative.
The provisions of this ARTICLE shall be interpreted and applied in a manner
consistent with the requirements of section 416 of the Code and the regulations
thereunder.

         11.2  Vesting.

               (a) If the Plan becomes a Top-Heavy Plan, then amounts in a
Participant's Account attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall be
vested in accordance with this section, in lieu of ARTICLE VI, to the extent
this section produces a greater degree of vesting. This section shall only apply
to Participants who have at least an Hour of Service after the Plan becomes a
Top-Heavy Plan.

               (b) If applicable, amounts in a Participant's Account
attributable to Matching and ESOP Contributions shall vest as follows:

                       Years of
                   Top Heavy Service         Vested Percentage

                      Fewer than 3                    0%
                       3 or more                    100%

                  (c) If the Plan ceases to be a Top-Heavy Plan then subsection
(b) shall no longer be applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall the
vested percentage of any Participant be reduced by reason of the Plan ceasing to
be a Top-Heavy Plan. Subsection (b) shall nevertheless continue to apply for any
Participant who was previously covered by it and who has at least three (3)
Years of Top-Heavy Service.

                                       49

         11.3     Minimum Contribution.

                  (a) For each Plan Year that the Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan, the
Adopting Employers shall make a contribution to be allocated directly to the
Account of each Non-Key Employee.

                  (b) The amount of the contribution (and forfeitures) required
to be contributed and allocated for a Plan Year by this section is three percent
(3%) of the Top-Heavy Compensation for that Plan Year of each Non-Key Employee
who is both a Participant and an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year for
which the contribution is made, with adjustments as provided herein. If the
contributions (other than Rollover Contributions) allocated to the Accounts of
each Key Employee for a Plan Year are less than three percent (3%) of his or her
Top-Heavy Compensation, then the contribution required by the preceding sentence
shall be reduced for that Plan Year to the same percentage of Top-Heavy
Compensation that was allocated to the Account of the Key Employee whose Account
received the greatest allocation of contributions (other than Rollover
Contributions) for that Plan Year, when computed as a percentage of Top-Heavy
Compensation.

                  (c) The contribution required by this section shall be reduced
for a Plan Year to the extent of any ESOP or Qualified Nonelective Contributions
made and allocated under this Plan or any other contributions (as permitted
under section 416 of the Code and the regulations thereunder; including, but not
limited to, Matching Contributions that are not needed to satisfy the limits
prescribed in section 4.8) from the Adopting Employers made and allocated under
any other Aggregated Plans.

         11.4 Definitions.

              (a) The following terms shall have the meanings specified herein:

                  (1) Aggregated Plans.

                      (A) The Plan, any plan that is part of a "required
aggregation group" and any plan that is part of a "permissive aggregation group"
that the Adopting Employers treat as an Aggregated Plan.

                      (B) The "required aggregation group" consists of each plan
of the Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates (in the Plan Year
containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4) preceding Plan Years)
and each other plan of the Adopting Employers which enables any plan of the
Adopting Employers in which a Key Employee participates to meet the requirements
of section 401(a)(4) or section 410(b) of the Code. Also included in the
required aggregation group shall be any terminated plan that covered a Key
Employee and was maintained within the five (5) year period ending on the
Determination Date.

                      (C) The "permissive aggregation group" consists of any 
plan not included in the "required aggregation group" if the Aggregated Plan
described in subparagraph (A) above would continue to meet the requirements of
section 401(a)(4) and 410 of the Code with such additional plan being taken into
account.

                                       50

                  (2) Determination Date. The last day of the preceding Plan 
Year, or, in the case of the first plan year of any plan, the last day of such
plan year. The computations made on the Determination Date shall utilize
information from the immediately preceding Valuation Date.

                  (3) Key Employee.

                      (A) An Employee (or former Employee) who, at any time 
during the Plan Year containing the Determination Date or any of the four (4)
preceding Plan Years, is:

                          (i) An officer of one of the Adopting Employers with
annual Top-Heavy Compensation for the Plan Year greater than fifty percent (50%)
of the amount in effect under section 415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar
year in which that Plan Year ends;

                          (ii) one of the ten (10) Employees owning (or 
considered as owning under section 318 of the Code) the largest interest in one
of the Adopting Employers, who has more than one-half of one percent (.5%)
interest in such Adopting Employer, and who has annual Top-Heavy Compensation
for the Plan Year at least equal to the maximum dollar limitation under section
415(c)(1)(A) of the Code for the calendar year in which that Plan Year ends;

                         (iii) a five percent (5%) or greater shareholder in 
one of the Adopting Employers; or

                         (iv) a one percent (1%) shareholder in one of the
Adopting Employers with annual Top-Heavy Compensation from the Adopting Employer
of more than one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000).

                      (B) For purposes of paragraphs (3)(A)(iii) and (3)(A)(iv),
the rules of section 414(b), (c) and (m) of the Code shall not apply.
Beneficiaries of an Employee shall acquire the character of such Employee and
inherited benefits will retain the character of the benefits of the Employee who
performed services.

                  (4) Non-Key Employee.  Any Employee who is not a Key Employee.

                  (5) Super Top-Heavy Plan. A Top-Heavy Plan in which the sum o
the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits and accounts for Key
Employees exceeds ninety percent (90%) of the comparable sum determined for all
Employees. The foregoing determination shall be made in the same manner as the
determination of a Top-Heavy Plan under this section.

                  (6) Top-Heavy Compensation. The term Top-Heavy Compensation
shall have the same meaning as the term Compensation has under section 10.5(b).

                  (7) Top-Heavy Plan. The Plan is a Top-Heavy Plan for a Plan 
Year if, as of the Determination Date for that Plan Year, the sum of (i) the
present value of the cumulative accrued benefits for Key Employees under all
Defined Benefit Plans that are Aggregated Plans and (ii) the aggregate of the
accounts of Key Employees under all Defined Contribution Plans that are
Aggregated Plans exceeds sixty percent (60%) of the comparable sum determined
for all Employees.

                                       51

                  (8) Years of Top-Heavy Service. The number of Years of Service
with the Adopting Employers that might be counted under section 411(a) of the
Code, disregarding all service that may be disregarded under section 411(a)(4)
of the Code.

              (b) The definitions in this section and the provisions of this
ARTICLE shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with section 416 of the
Code.

         11.5 Special Rules.

              (a) For purposes of determining the present value of the
cumulative accrued benefit for any Participant or the amount of the Account of
any Participant, such present value or amount shall be increased by the
aggregate distributions made with respect to such Participant under the Plan
during the Plan Year that includes the Determination Date and the four (4)
preceding Plan Years (if such amounts would otherwise have been omitted).

              (b)(1) In the case of unrelated rollovers and transfers, (i)
the plan making the distribution or transfer is to count the distribution as a
distribution under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and (ii) the plan accepting
the rollover or transfer is not to consider the rollover or transfer as part of
the accrued benefit if such rollover or transfer was accepted after December 31,
1983, but is to consider it as part of the accrued benefit if such rollover or
transfer was accepted before January 1, 1984. For this purpose, rollovers and
transfers are to be considered unrelated if they are both initiated by the
Employee and made from a plan maintained by one employer to a plan maintained by
another employer.

                 (2) In the case of related rollovers and transfers, the plan 
making the distribution or transfer is not to count the distribution or transfer
under section 416(g)(3) of the Code, and the plan accepting the rollover or
transfer counts the rollover or transfer in the present value of the accrued
benefits. For this purpose, rollovers and transfers are to be considered related
if they are not unrelated under subsection (b)(1).

              (c) If any individual is a Non-Key Employee with respect to
any plan for any Plan Year, but such individual was a Key Employee with respect
to such plan for any prior Plan Year, any accrued benefit for such Employee (and
the account of such Employee) shall not be taken into account.

              (d) Beneficiaries of Key Employees and former Key Employees
are considered to be Key Employees and Beneficiaries of Non-Key Employees and
former Non-Key Employees are considered to be Non-Key Employees.

              (e) The accrued benefit of an Employee who has not performed
any service for the Adopting Employer maintaining the Plan at any time during
the five (5) year period ending on the Determination Date is excluded from the
calculation to determine top-heaviness. However, if an Employee performs no
services, such Employee's total accrued benefit is included in the calculation
for top-heaviness.

                                       52

         11.6 Adjustment of Limitations.

              (a) If this section is applicable, then the contribution and
benefit limitations in section 10.5 shall be reduced. Such reduction shall be
made by modifying section 10.5(a)(2)(A) of the definition of Defined Benefit
Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0 multiplied by ninety thousand
dollars ($90,000), or" and by modifying section 10.5(a)(4)(A) of the definition
of Defined Contribution Fraction to instead be "(i) the product of 1.0
multiplied by thirty thousand dollars ($30,000), or".

               (b) This section shall be applicable for any Plan Year in which 
either:

                   (1) the Plan is a Super Top-Heavy Plan, or  

                   (2) the Plan both is a Top-Heavy Plan (but not a Super 
Top-Heavy Plan) and provides contributions (other than Rollover Contributions
and forfeitures to the Account of any Non-Key Employee in an amount less than
four percent (4%) of such Participant's Top-Heavy Compensation, as determined in
accordance with section 11.3(b).

                                 ARTICLE XII

                                 The Trust Fund

         12.1 Trust. During the period in which this Plan remains in existence,
the Company or any successor thereto shall maintain in effect a Trust with a
corporation and/or an individual(s) as Trustee, to hold, invest, and distribute
the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms of such Trust.

         12.2 Investment of Accounts. The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the
Participant's accounts in the investment options available under the Plan in
accordance with ARTICLE V, as directed by the Administrator or its delegate. The
Administrator shall issue such directions in accordance with the investment
options selected by the Participants which shall remain in force until altered
in accordance with Article V.

         12.3 Expenses. Expenses of the Plan and Trust shall be paid from the
Trust.

         12.4 Acquisition Loans. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the Plan,
the Administrator may direct the Trustee to incur Acquisition Loans from time to
time to finance the acquisition of Common Stock or to repay a prior Acquisition
Loan. An Acquisition Loan shall be for a specific term, shall bear a reasonable
rate of interest, and shall not be payable on demand except in the event of
default. Acquisition loans may be secured by the pledge of the Financed Shares
so acquired (or acquired with the proceeds of a prior Acquisition Loan which is
being refinanced). No other Trust assets may be pledged as collateral for an
Acquisition Loan, and no lender shall have recourse against Trust assets other
than any Financed Shares remaining subject to pledge. If the lender is a party
in interest (as defined in ERISA), the Acquisition Loan must provide for a
transfer of Trust assets on default only upon and to the extent of the failure

                                       53

of the Trust to meet the payment schedule of the Acquisition Loan. Any pledge of
Financed Shares must provide for the release of the shares so pledged as
payments on the Acquisition Loan are made by the Trustee, and such Financed
Shares are allocated to Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts under Article
IV. Payments of principal and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan shall be made
by the Trustee (as directed by the Administrator) only from Employer
contributions paid in cash to enable the Trust to repay such Acquisition Loan,
from earnings attributable to such Employer contributions, and from any cash
dividends received by the Trust on such Financed Shares. Except as required by
section 409(h) of the Code and by Treasury Regulations sections 54.4975(b)(9),
(10), or as otherwise required by applicable law, no Financed Shares may be
subject to a put, call or other option, or a buy-sell or similar arrangement
while held by, or distributed from, the Plan, whether or not the ESOP Portion of
the Plan is an employee stock ownership plan, within the meaning of section
4975(e)(7) of the Code at the time.

         12.5 Sale of Common Stock. With respect to the ESOP Portion of the
Plan, subject to the approval of the Senior Vice President of Human Resources of
the Company or other officer authorized by the Board of Directors to give such
approval, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to sell shares of Common
Stock to any person, including the Company and any Affiliates, provided such
sale must be made at a price not less favorable to the Plan than fair market
value. In the event that the Trustee is unable to make payments of principal
and/or interest on an Acquisition Loan when due, the Administrator may direct
the Trustee to sell any Financed Shares that have not yet been allocated to
Participants' ESOP Contribution Accounts or to obtain an Acquisition Loan in an
amount sufficient to make such payments.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                           Administration of The Plan

         13.1 General Administration. The general administration of the Plan
shall be the responsibility of the Company (or any successor thereto) which
shall be the Administrator and named Fiduciary for purposes of ERISA. The
Company shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to construe the terms
of the Plan and to make determinations as to eligibility for benefits and as to
other issues within the "Responsibilities of the Administrator" described in
this ARTICLE. All such determinations of the Company shall be conclusive and
binding on all persons.

         13.2 Responsibilities of the Administrator. Except as otherwise
provided in ERISA, the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries) may
allocate any duties and responsibilities under the Plan and Trust among
themselves in any mutually agreed upon manner. Such allocation shall be in a
written document signed by the Administrator (and any other named Fiduciaries)
and shall specifically set forth this allocation of duties and responsibilities,
which may include the following:

                  (a) Determination of all questions which may arise under the
Plan with respect to questions of fact and law, including without limitation
eligibility for participation, administration of Accounts, membership, vesting,
loans, withdrawals, accounting, status of Accounts, stock ownership and voting
rights, and any other issue requiring interpretation or application of the Plan.

                                       54

                  (b) Establishment of procedures required by the Plan, such as
notification to Employees as to joining the Plan, selecting and changing
investment options, suspending deferrals, exercising voting rights in stock,
withdrawing and borrowing Account balances, designation of Beneficiaries,
election of method of distribution, and any other matters requiring a uniform
procedure.

                  (c) Submission of necessary amendments to supplement omissions
from the Plan or reconcile any inconsistency therein.

                  (d) Filing appropriate reports with the government as required
by law. 

                  (e) Appointment of a Trustee or Trustees, Recordkeepers, and 
investment managers. 

                  (f) Review at appropriate intervals of the performance of the
Trustee and such investment managers as may have been designated.

                  (g) Appointment of such additional Fiduciaries as deemed
necessary for the effective administration of the Plan, such appointments to be
by written instrument.

         13.3 Liability for Acts of Other Fiduciaries. Each Fiduciary shall be
responsible only for the duties allocated or delegated to said Fiduciary, and
other Fiduciaries shall not be liable for any breach of fiduciary responsibility
with respect to any act or omission of any other Fiduciary unless:

                  (a) The Fiduciary knowingly participates in or knowingly
attempts to conceal the act or omission of such other Fiduciary and knows that
such act or omission constitutes a breach of fiduciary responsibility by the
other Fiduciary;

                  (b) The Fiduciary has knowledge of a breach of fiduciary
responsibility by the other Fiduciary and has not made reasonable efforts under
the circumstances to remedy the breach; or

                  (c) The Fiduciary's own breach of his or her specific
fiduciary responsibilities has enabled another Fiduciary to commit a breach. No
Fiduciary shall be liable for any acts or omissions which occur prior to his or
her assumption of Fiduciary status or after his or her termination from such
status.

         13.4 Employment by Fiduciaries. Any Fiduciary hereunder may employ,
with the written approval of the Administrator, one or more persons to render
service with regard to any responsibility which has been assigned to such
Fiduciary under the terms of the Plan including legal, tax, or investment
counsel and may delegate to one or more persons any administrative duties
(clerical or otherwise) hereunder.

                                       55

         13.5 Recordkeeping. The Administrator shall keep or cause to be kept
any necessary data required for determining the Account status of each
Participant. In compiling such information, the Administrator may rely upon its
employment records, including representations made by the Participant in the
employment application and subsequent documents submitted by the Participant to
the Employer. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon such information when
furnished by the Administrator or its delegate. Each Employee shall be required
to furnish the Administrator upon request and in such form as prescribed by the
Administrator, such personal information, affidavits and authorizations to
obtain information as the Administrator may deem appropriate for the proper
administration of the Plan, including but not limited to proof of the Employee's
date of birth and the date of birth of any person designated by a Participant as
a Beneficiary.

         13.6 Claims Review Procedure.

              (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section 13.6, the
Administrator shall make all determinations as to the right of any person to
Accounts under the Plan. Any such determination shall be made pursuant to the
following procedures, which shall be conducted in a manner designed to comply
with section 503 of ERISA:

                  (1) Step 1. Claims with respect to an Account should be filed 
by a claimant as soon as practicable after the claimant knows or should know
that a dispute has arisen with respect to an Account, but at least thirty (30)
days prior to the claimant's actual retirement date or, if applicable, within
sixty (60) days after the death, Disability or Severance from Service of the
Participant whose Account is at issue, by mailing a copy of the claim to the
Benefits and Services Department, Raytheon Company, 141 Spring Street,
Lexington, Massachusetts 02421.

                   (2) Step 2. In the event that a claim with respect to an 
Account is wholly or partially denied by the Administrator, the Administrator
shall, within ninety (90) days following receipt of the claim, so advise the
claimant in writing setting forth: the specific reason or reasons for the
denial; specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is
based; a description of any additional material or information necessary for the
claimant to perfect the claim; an explanation as to why such material or
information is necessary; and an explanation of the Plan's claim review
procedure.

                  (3) Step 3. Within sixty (60) days following receipt of the 
denial of a claim with respect to an Account, a claimant desiring to have the
denial appealed shall file a request for review by an officer of the Company or
a claims review committee, as designated by the Company, by mailing a copy
thereof to the address shown in subsection (a)(1); provided, however, that such
officer or any member of such claims review committee, as applicable, may not be
the person who made the initial adverse benefits determination nor a subordinate
of such person.

                                       56

                  (4) Step 4. Within thirty (30) days following receipt of a 
request for review, the designated officer or claims review committee shall
provide the claimant a further opportunity to present his or her position. At
the designated officer or claims review committee's discretion, such
presentation may be through an oral or written presentation. Prior to such
presentation, the claimant shall be permitted the opportunity to review
pertinent documents and to submit issues and comments in writing. Within a
reasonable time following presentation of the claimant's position, which usually
should not exceed thirty (30) days, the designated officer or claims review
committee shall inform the claimant in writing of the decision on review setting
forth the reasons for such decision and citing pertinent provisions in the Plan.

              (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (a), the
Administrator is the Fiduciary to whom the Plan grants full discretion, with the
advice of counsel, to interpret the Plan; to determine whether a claimant is
eligible for benefits; to decide the amount, form and timing of benefits; and to
resolve any other matter under the Plan which is raised by a claimant or
identified by the Administrator. All questions arising from or in connection
with the provisions of the Plan and its administration, not herein provided to
be determined by the Board of Directors, shall be determined by the
Administrator, and any determination so made shall be conclusive and binding
upon all persons affected thereby.

         13.7 Indemnification of Directors and Employees. The Adopting Employers
shall indemnify any Fiduciary who is a director, officer or Employee of the
Employer, his or her heirs and legal representatives, against all liability and
reasonable expense, including counsel fees, amounts paid in settlement and
amounts of judgments, fines or penalties, incurred or imposed upon him in
connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of acts or omissions in his or her
capacity as a Fiduciary hereunder, provided that such act or omission is not the
result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Adopting Employers may
indemnify other Fiduciaries, their heirs and legal representatives, under the
circumstances, and subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding
sentence, if such indemnification is determined by the Board of Directors to be
in the best interests of the Adopting Employers.

         13.8 Immunity from Liability. Except to the extent that section 410(a)
of ERISA prohibits the granting of immunity to Fiduciaries from liability for
any responsibility, obligation, or duty imposed under Title I, Subtitle B, Part
4, of said Act, an officer, Employee, member of the Board of Directors of the
Employer or other person assigned responsibility under this Plan shall be immune
from any liability for any action or failure to act except such action or
failure to act which results from said officer's, Employee's, Participant's or
other person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                        Amendment Or Termination Of Plan

         14.1 Right to Amend or Terminate Plan. The Company reserves the right
at any time or times, by action of the Board of Directors, to modify, amend or
terminate the Plan in whole or in part, in which event a certified copy of the
resolution of the Board of Directors, authorizing such modification, amendment
or termination shall be delivered to the Trustee and to the other Adopting
Employers whose Employees are covered by this Plan, provided, however, that no
amendment to the Plan shall be made which shall:

                                       57

              (a) reduce any vested right or interest to which any Participant 
or Beneficiary is then entitled under this Plan or otherwise reduce the vested
rights of a Participant in violation of section 411(d)(6) of the Code;

              (b) vest in the Adopting Employers any interest or control over 
any assets of the Trust; 

              (c) cause any assets of the Trust to be used for, or diverted to,
purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of Participants and their 
Beneficiaries; or

              (d) change any of the rights, duties or powers of the Trustee
 without its written consent.

              (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section or
any other provisions of this Plan, any modification or amendment of the Plan may
be made retroactively if necessary or appropriate to conform the Plan with, or
to satisfy the conditions of, ERISA, the Code, or any other law, governmental
regulation or ruling. In the alternative, subject to the conditions prescribed
in subsections (a) through (e), the Plan may be amended by an officer of the
Company authorized by the Board of Directors to amend the Plan, provided,
however, that any such amendment does not, in the view of such officer,
materially increase costs of the Plan to the Company or any Adopting Employer.

         14.2 Amendment to Vesting Schedule. Any amendment that modifies the 
vesting  provisions of ARTICLE VI shall either:

                  (a) provide for a rate of vesting that is at least as rapid 
for any Participant as the vesting schedule previously in effect; or

                  (b) provide that any adversely affected Participant with a
Period of Service of at least three (3) years may elect, in writing, to remain
under the vesting schedule in effect prior to the amendment.

     Such election must be made within sixty (60) days after the later of the:

          (1)  adoption of the amendment;
          (2)  effective date of the amendment; or

          (3)  issuance by the Administrator of written notice of the amendment.

         14.3 Maintenance of Plan.  The Adopting Employers have established the
Plan with the bona fide intention and expectation that they will be able to make
contributions indefinitely, but the Adopting Employers are not and shall not be
under any obligation or liability whatsoever to continue contributions or to
maintain the Plan for any given length of time.

         14.4 Termination of Plan and Trust. The Plan and Trust hereby created
shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

              (a) Delivery to the Trustee of a notice of termination
executed by the Company specifying the date as of which the Plan and Trust shall
terminate; or

                                       58

              (b) Adjudication of the Company as bankrupt or general
assignment by the Company to or for the benefit of creditors or dissolution of
the Company.

         14.5 Distribution on Termination.

              (a)(1) If the Plan is terminated, or contributions permanently 
discontinued, an Adopting Employer, at its discretion, may (at that
time or at any later time) direct the Trustee to distribute the amounts in a
Participant's Account in accordance with the distribution provisions of the
Plan. Such distribution shall, notwithstanding any prior provisions of the Plan,
be made in a single lump-sum without the Participant's consent as to the timing
of such distribution. If, however, an Adopting Employer (or an Affiliate)
maintains another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock
ownership plan), then the preceding sentence shall not apply and the Adopting
Employer, at its discretion, may direct such distributions to be made as a
direct transfer to such other plan without the Participant's consent, if the
Participant does not consent to an immediate distribution.

                 (2) If an Adopting Employer does not direct distribution under
paragraph (1), each Participant's Account shall be maintained until distributed
in accordance with the provisions of the Plan (determined without regard to this
section) as though the Plan had not been terminated or contributions
discontinued.

              (b) If the Administrator determines that it is administratively
impracticable to make distributions under this section in cash or that it would
be in the Participant's best interest to make some or all of the distributions
with in-kind property, it shall offer all Participants and Beneficiaries
entitled to a distribution under this section a reasonable opportunity to elect
to receive a distribution of the in-kind property being distributed by the
Trust. Those Participants and Beneficiaries so electing shall receive a
proportionate share of such in-kind property in the form (outright, in trust or
in partnership) that the Administrator determines will provide the most feasible
method of distribution.

              (c)(1) Amounts attributable to elective contributions shall
only be distributable by reason of this section if one of the following is
applicable:

                     (A) the Plan is terminated without the establishment or 
maintenance of another defined contribution plan (other than an employee stock
 ownership plan);

                     (B) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition 
to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets used by the
Adopting Employer in a trade or business of the Adopting Employer with respect
to an Employee who continues employment with the corporation acquiring such
assets; or

                                       59

                     (C) an Adopting Employer has a sale or other disposition 
to an unrelated entity of the Adopting Employer's interest in a subsidiary with
respect to an Employee who continues employment with such subsidiary.

                 (2) For purposes of this subsection, the term "elective 
contributions" means employer contributions made to the Plan that were subject
to a cash or deferred election under a cash or deferred arrangement.

                 (3) Elective contributions are distributable under subsections
(c)(1)(B) and (C) above only if the Adopting Employers continue to maintain the
Plan after the disposition.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                              Additional Provisions

         15.1 Effect of Merger, Consolidation or Transfer. In the event of any
merger or consolidation with or transfer of assets or liabilities to any other
plan or to this Plan, each Participant of the Plan shall be entitled to a
benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or transfer, which is equal
to or greater than the benefit he or she would have been entitled to receive
immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer (if the Plan had been
terminated).

         15.2 No Assignment.

              (a) Except as provided herein, the right of any Participant or
Beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject to
alienation, assignment, garnishment, attachment, execution or levy of any kind.

              (b) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
permitted by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to regulations issued under
section 401(a)(13) of the Code.

              (c) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
pursuant to a Qualified Domestic Relations Order.

              (d) Subsection (a) shall not apply to any payment or transfer
to the Trust in accordance with section 401(a)(13)(C) of the Code to satisfy the
Participant's liabilities to the Plan or Trust in any one or more of the
following circumstances:

                  (1) the Participant is convicted of a crime involving the 
Plan;

                  (2) a civil judgment (or consent order or decree) in an
action is brought against the Participant in connection with an ERISA fiduciary
violation; or

                  (3) the Participant enters into a settlement agreement with 
the Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation over an
ERISA fiduciary violation.

                                       60

         15.3 Limitation of Rights of Employees. This Plan is strictly a
voluntary undertaking on the part of the Adopting Employers and shall not be
deemed to constitute a contract between any of the Adopting Employers and any
Employee, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of
the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to
give any Employee the right to be retained in the service of any of the Adopting
Employers or shall interfere with the right of any of the Adopting Employers to
discharge or otherwise terminate the employment of any Employee of an Adopting
Employer at any time. No Employee shall be entitled to any right or claim
hereunder except to the extent such right is specifically fixed under the terms
of the Plan.

         15.4 Construction. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted and
construed in accordance with the requirements of the Code and ERISA. Any
amendment or restatement of the Plan or Trust that would otherwise violate the
requirements of section 411(d)(6) of the Code or otherwise cause the Plan or
Trust to cease to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Code shall be deemed
to be invalid. Capitalized terms shall have meanings as defined herein. Singular
nouns shall be read as plural, masculine pronouns shall be read as feminine and
vice versa, as appropriate. References to "section" or "ARTICLE" shall be read
as references to appropriate provisions of this Plan, unless otherwise
indicated.

         15.5 Company Determinations. Any determinations, actions or decisions
of the Company (including but not limited to, Plan amendments and Plan
termination) shall be made by its Board of Directors in accordance with its
established procedures or by such other individuals, groups or organizations
that have been properly delegated by the Board of Directors to make such
determination or decision.

         15.6 Continued Qualification. This Plan is amended and restated with
the intent that it shall continue to qualify under sections 401(a), 401(k) and
4975(e)(7) of the Code as those sections exist at the time the Plan is amended
and restated. If the Internal Revenue Service determines that the Plan does not
meet those requirements as amended and restated, the Plan shall be amended
retroactively as necessary to correct any such inadequacy. Section 7.2 shall not
be effective until the date the Internal Revenue Service issues a favorable
determination letter with respect to the Plan as amended and restated herein
(including section 7.2). Until section 7.2 becomes effective in accordance with
the immediately preceding sentence of this section 15.6, a Participant may
withdraw all or a portion of his or her Employee After-Tax Contribution Account,
subject to the condition that such Participant may not make any Employee
After-Tax Contributions under the Plan for at least six (6) months after receipt
of the in-service withdrawal.

         15.7 Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by, construed and
administered in accordance with ERISA and any other applicable federal law;
provided, however, that to the extent not preempted by federal law, this Plan
shall be governed by, construed and administered under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, other than its laws respecting choice of law.

The Electronics segments were established in conjunction with the consolidation and reorganization of the Company's Electronics businesses and the creation of Raytheon Systems Company in December 1997 in order to create a premier electronics company. The Company is a leader in defense electronics, including missiles; radar; sensors and electro-optics; reconnaissance, surveillance, and intelligence; command, control, communication, and information; training; simulation and services; naval and air traffic control systems; and aircraft integration systems. The Company's results of operations include the results of Texas Instruments' defense business (TI Defense) which was acquired on July 11, 1997 and the defense business of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes Defense) which merged with the Company on December 17, 1997. The Engineering and Construction segment offers full-service engineering and construction capabilities to clients worldwide. The Aircraft segment is one of the leading providers of business and special mission aircraft and delivers a broad line of jet, turboprop, and piston-powered airplanes to corporate and military customers worldwide. 3 Consolidated Results of Operations Net sales in 1998 were $19.5 billion compared with $13.7 billion in 1997 and $12.3 billion in 1996. Sales to the U.S. Department of Defense were 55 percent of sales in 1998, 34 percent in 1997, and 33 percent in 1996. Total sales to the U.S. government were 66 percent of sales in 1998, 46 percent in 1997, and 42 percent in 1996. The increases are primarily a result of the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Total international sales, including foreign military sales, were 26 percent of sales in 1998, 29 percent in 1997, and 28 percent in 1996. The decrease is due to lower international sales at Hughes Defense and TI Defense; however, the Company is working to increase its international presence and expects continued growth in this area. Gross margin in 1998 was $4.3 billion compared with $2.7 billion in 1997 and $2.5 billion in 1996. Excluding the restructuring and special charges described below, gross margin was $4.4 billion in 1998, $3.1 billion in 1997, and $2.6 billion in 1996 or 22.4 percent of sales in 1998, 22.6 percent in 1997, and 20.9 percent in 1996. The increases in 1997 from 1996 are principally a result of the acquisition of TI Defense. Administrative and selling expenses increased to $1,664 million in 1998 from $1,189 million in 1997 due primarily to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense, partially offset by the sale of the Company's home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations in September 1997. Administrative and selling expenses were $1,021 million in 1996. Excluding the special charges described below, administrative and selling expenses decreased to 7.7 percent of sales in 1998 from 8.0 percent in 1997 and 8.3 percent in 1996 reflecting increased efficiencies resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Research and development expenses increased to $582 million in 1998 from $415 million in 1997 and $323 million in 1996, due principally to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Research and development expenses were 3.0 percent of sales in both 1998 and 1997 and 2.6 percent in 1996. In January 1998, the Company announced plans to reduce the newly formed Raytheon Systems Company (RSC) workforce by 8,700 employees, close 20 facilities, and partially close an additional 6 facilities, reducing space by approximately 8 million square feet. This announcement was made in conjunction with the consolidation and reorganization of RSC in order to remain competitive in the defense industry. In October 1998, the Company announced previously planned actions to accelerate and expand these initiatives, reducing employment by approximately 14,000 positions by the end of 1999. RSC will also vacate an additional 3 million square feet at 8 facilities through sales, subleases and lease terminations. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 1998 the Company committed to close two additional facilities and further reduce employment by approximately 1,400 positions. The principal actions involve the consolidation of missile and other electronics systems' manufacturing and engineering, as well as the consolidation of certain component manufacturing into Centers of Excellence. 4 The total program cost of the RSC actions is estimated at $1.1 billion, of which $804 million pertains to exit costs. Approximately $385 million of the exit costs relate to employee severance and $419 million relate to facilities exit. In connection with these actions, the Company recorded a $220 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, which is included in cost of sales, and accrued $584 million in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Through December 31, 1998, RSC employment has been reduced by approximately 9,000 people (which includes a 2,400 net reduction due to attrition) to approximately 79,000 employees, and 3.3 million square feet have been vacated. The Company expects to essentially complete these restructuring actions in 1999 and terminate an additional 8,800 employees which will be partially offset by new hire additions. Cash expenditures pertaining to exit costs under the restructuring initiatives outlined above were $104 million for employee severance and related items and $130 million for facility and office closures. Lower than expected costs of severance per employee have reduced the Company's estimates of employee related costs; however, these cost savings have been more than offset by higher than expected facilities exit costs and the cost of the additional fourth quarter actions. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. In January 1998, the Company also announced plans to reduce the Raytheon Engineers & Constructors (RE&C) workforce by 1,000 employees and close or partially close 16 offices, or approximately 1.1 million square feet. In connection with these actions and other committed but unannounced actions, the Company recorded a $75 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, which is included in cost of sales. The restructuring charge included $31 million for employee severance for approximately 2,300 people, including the 1,000 positions announced in January 1998, and $44 million for facilities exit. In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company modified the plan that was announced in January 1998 to close fewer facilities. As a result of this modification, the number of employee terminations was reduced from approximately 2,300 people to approximately 1,400 people; however, the cost savings realized as a result of these reductions were offset by higher than expected facilities exit costs. In October 1998, the Company also announced plans for an additional 260 person reduction in the RE&C workforce and recorded an additional $33 million restructuring charge, which is included in cost of sales. The total costs of these actions are currently estimated at $108 million, of which $53 million relate to employee severance and $55 million relate to facilities exit. In 1998, the Company also recorded a $52 million special charge for asset impairment related to the RE&C restructuring actions to exit two operations which are scheduled to be closed in 1999. The charge, which is included in cost of sales, consists of $45 million of goodwill associated with one of the operations to be exited and $7 million for the estimated loss on disposition of the other operation. 5 Through December 31, 1998, RE&C employment had been reduced by approximately 1,200 people and 900,000 square feet had been vacated. Cash expenditures in 1998 under the restructuring initiatives outlined above were $19 million for employee severance and related items and $23 million for facility and office closures. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. In 1998, the Company recorded special charges of $167 million, discussed below, which are included in administrative and selling expenses. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company's partner in a Commercial Electronics joint venture in Korea began to experience financial difficulties. As a result, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment of its investment in the joint venture, reducing the book value of the investment to estimated fair value. During the third quarter of 1998, the financial condition of the joint venture deteriorated further, and the Company recorded an additional $83 million special charge to exit a line of business, which included writing off its remaining investment in the Korean joint venture. Also in 1998, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to write down the assets of two operations in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell to estimated fair value of approximately $125 million. One sale was completed during 1998. The other sale is expected to close in 1999. The operating results, which are not material, continue to be included in the Company's results of operations. In 1997, the Company recorded special charges of $200 million, discussed below, of which $106 million is included in cost of sales and $94 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. In 1997, the Company recorded a $63 million special charge primarily for one-time costs in the Electronics businesses associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. The Company also recorded a $57 million special charge primarily to write down to estimated fair value certain assets in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell. The sale of these assets was completed in 1998 and the proceeds and loss on disposition were not material. Also in 1997, the Company recorded a $50 million special charge for contract valuations at RE&C and a $30 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment at Raytheon Aircraft. In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge, which is included in cost of sales, to close a Major Appliances operation. 6 Operating income was $2,036 million or 10.4 percent of sales in 1998, $1,084 million or 7.9 percent of sales in 1997, and $1,198 million or 9.7 percent of sales in 1996. Excluding the restructuring and special charges of $252 million in 1998, $495 million in 1997, and $34 million in 1996, operating income as a percent of sales was 11.7 percent, 11.5 percent, and 10.0 percent in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The changes in operating income by segment are discussed below. Interest expense in 1998 increased to $739 million from $397 million in 1997 due principally to the higher debt level resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. During 1998, the Company issued $3.8 billion of long-term notes and debentures in order to secure favorable long-term rates. The weighted average cost of borrowing was 6.9 percent in 1998 versus 6.8 percent in 1997. Interest expense increased to $397 million in 1997 from $256 million in 1996. The increase was due principally to the debt-financed acquisition of TI Defense in July 1997 and higher short-term interest rates available to the Company. Interest and dividend income decreased to $28 million in 1998 from $38 million in 1997 and $102 million in 1996. The 1996 amount included accrued interest on a retroactive federal income tax refund claim. Other income, net of $142 million in 1998 includes a $141 million net gain on sales of operating units. Other income, net was $65 million in 1997 versus $39 million in 1996. The 1997 amount includes a $72 million net gain on sales of operating units. The effective tax rate was 41.1 percent in 1998, 33.3 percent in 1997, and 29.7 percent in 1996. The effective tax rate reflects primarily the United States statutory rate of 35 percent reduced by foreign sales corporation tax credits and research and development tax credits applicable to certain government contracts, increased by non-deductible amortization of goodwill. The increase in the effective tax rate in 1998 was primarily due to the increase in non-deductible amortization of goodwill resulting from the merger with Hughes Defense. The increase in the effective tax rate in 1997 from 1996 was due to accrued retroactive research and development tax credits applicable to certain government contracts recorded in 1996. Net income for 1998 was $864 million, or $2.53 per diluted share on 341.9 million average shares outstanding. Net income for 1997 was $527 million, or $2.18 per diluted share on 241.9 million average shares outstanding. Net income for 1996 was $761 million, or $3.17 per diluted share on 240.2 million average shares outstanding. The Company issued 102.6 million shares of Class A common stock in December 1997 in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense. Total employment was approximately 108,200 at December 31, 1998, approximately 119,200 at December 31, 1997, and approximately 75,300 at December 31, 1996. The decrease between 1998 and 1997 is primarily a result of the restructuring initiatives at RSC and RE&C outlined above. The increase between 1997 and 1996 was due principally to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. 7 Segment Results Sales (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defense Systems $ 4,958 Sensors and Electronic Systems 3,011 Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems 2,667 Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other 4,186 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Electronics 14,822 $ 8,972 $ 6,186 Engineering and Construction 2,065 2,255 2,291 Aircraft 2,643 2,446 2,345 Major Appliances -- -- 1,509 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $19,530 $13,673 $12,331 =============================================================================== Operating Income (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defense Systems $ 885 Sensors and Electronic Systems 540 Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems 305 Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other 302 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Electronics 2,032 $ 856 $ 793 Engineering and Construction (253) 19 184 Aircraft 257 209 181 Major Appliances -- -- 40 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 2,036 $ 1,084 $ 1,198 =============================================================================== Certain prior year segment amounts were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The Major Appliances segment was substantially divested in 1997 with the remaining operations sold in 1998. As a result of these dispositions, the Company has included the remaining operations of the Major Appliances segment within Total Electronics in 1998 and 1997. Information for the segments that comprise Total Electronics has not been presented for 1997 and 1996 because the Company determined that it was impracticable to obtain the comparative information due to the significant acquisitions, divestitures, and reorganizations that took place during 1998 and 1997. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. Note M to the financial statements contains additional information about this change. This organizational change will be reflected in the Company's 1999 financial statements. 8 The Electronics businesses reported 1998 sales of $14.8 billion, an increase of 65 percent compared with 1997, and 1998 operating income of $2,032 million, a 137 percent increase compared with 1997. The significant increase was attributable primarily to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Additionally, the previously discussed restructuring and special charges decreased to $167 million in 1998 from $340 million in 1997. The Electronics businesses reported 1997 sales of $9.0 billion, an increase of 45 percent compared with 1996, and 1997 operating income of $856 million, an 8 percent increase compared with 1996. The increase was attributable primarily to the acquisition of TI Defense offset by the restructuring and special charges discussed above. The Electronics businesses reported 1996 sales of $6.2 billion and operating income of $793 million. RE&C reported 1998 sales of $2.1 billion and an operating loss of $253 million and 1997 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $19 million. During 1998, RE&C recorded a non-recurring charge of $310 million for a change in estimate on certain contracts and contract claims. In accordance with contract accounting rules, this charge was recorded as a reduction in net sales. In addition, RE&C recorded previously discussed restructuring and special charges of $85 million in 1998 and $125 million in 1997. The decrease in sales and operating income was due primarily to the $310 million charge. In addition, new orders have not progressed as anticipated. This lower growth combined with operational performance on certain contracts resulted in continued margin pressure. In response to these circumstances, RE&C announced corrective actions which included improving cash flow management, reducing the overhead structure, and strengthening the management team. RE&C reported 1996 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $184 million. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1998 sales of $2.6 billion, up slightly compared with 1997, and 1998 operating income of $257 million, an improvement of 23 percent compared with 1997. The increase in sales is primarily due to increased shipments of general aviation aircraft. The increase in operating income is primarily due to the 1997 special charge of $30 million discussed above. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1997 sales of $2.4 billion, up slightly compared with 1996, and 1997 operating income of $209 million, an increase of 15 percent compared with 1996. The increases reflect increased shipments of general aviation aircraft and contracts for services. The increase in operating income was offset by the 1997 special charge discussed above. Raytheon Aircraft reported 1996 sales of $2.3 billion and operating income of $181 million. Backlog consisted of the following at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Electronics $17,648 $16,641 $ 7,559 Engineering and Construction 3,888 2,900 3,309 Aircraft 2,133 1,709 1,163 Major Appliances -- -- 35 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total backlog $23,669 $21,250 $12,066 U.S. government backlog included above $14,622 $12,547 $ 5,637 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 During the third quarter of 1998, the Company changed its method of reporting backlog at certain locations in order to provide a consistent method of reporting across and within the Company's businesses. Backlog includes the full value of contract awards when received, excluding awards and options expected in future periods. Prior to the change, contract values which were awarded but incrementally funded were excluded from reported backlog for some parts of the business. The one-time impact of this change was a $1.1 billion increase to Electronics backlog and a $0.9 billion increase to Engineering and Construction backlog, related principally to U.S. government contracts. Prior periods have not been restated for this change. Excluding this change, backlog remained essentially unchanged from December 31, 1997. Financial Condition and Liquidity Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $820 million versus $963 million for the year ended December 31, 1997. The decrease is due principally to increased working capital requirements and restructuring activities at the Electronics businesses. In 1998, the Company incurred cash expenditures of $276 million on restructuring and exit costs and $56 million of capital expenditures and period expenses related to restructuring and consolidation activities for RSC and RE&C combined. The Company expects to spend approximately $534 million on exit costs and approximately $225 million on capital expenditures and period costs related to restructuring actions in 1999. For the year ended December 31, 1996, net cash provided by operating activities was $291 million. While the Company expects that the completion of restructuring and consolidation activities will reduce cash flow in the near term, over the next five years the Company expects to generate significant cash from operations. Net cash provided by investing activities was $791 million in 1998 versus net cash used in investing activities of $2,856 million and $938 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Capital expenditures of $509 million in 1998 increased slightly from $459 million in 1997, primarily due to the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Capital expenditures in 1999 are expected to approximate 1998 levels. Capital expenditures were $406 million in 1996. Proceeds from sales of property, plant, and equipment include a $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility. The transaction was intended to diversify the Company's sources of funding and extend the term for a portion of the Company's financing obligations. Remaining lease payments approximate $109 million in 1999, $94 million in 2000, $77 million in 2001, $63 million in 2002, and $212 million in 2003. The lease facility contains covenants that are substantially similar to those in the Company's senior credit facilities. Also during 1998, the Company received proceeds of $210 million from various property sales. 10 During 1998, the Company made net payments for the purchase of acquired companies of $96 million, including $63 million for the acquisition of AlliedSignal's Communications Systems business. During 1997, net payments of $3,087 million were made in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. While the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. During 1998, the Company sold its commercial laundry business unit for $315 million in cash and $19 million in securities and its Raytheon Aircraft Montek subsidiary for $160 million. Also during 1998, the Company sold other non-core business operations for $273 million. Total sales and operating income related to these divested businesses were $372 million and $8 million, respectively in 1998. During 1997, the Company sold its home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations for $522 million. Also during 1997, the Company sold its Switchcraft and Semiconductor divisions, which were part of Commercial Electronics, for $183 million. The Company has been divesting non-core assets as part of its strategy to focus and streamline its core businesses. Dividends paid to stockholders were $271 million in 1998, $189 million in 1997, and $190 million in 1996. The quarterly dividend rate was $0.20 per share for each of the four quarters of 1998, 1997, and 1996. The increase in dividends paid in 1998 was due to the issuance of 102.6 million shares in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense. Outstanding shares were reduced by the repurchase of 4.6 million shares for $247 million in 1998 and 1.7 million shares for $94 million in 1997. Total debt was $9.0 billion at December 31, 1998 as compared with $10.1 billion at December 31, 1997 and $3.7 billion at December 31, 1996. The increase is principally due to the financing requirements of the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense, partially offset by the sale of certain appliance and other non-core operations. Total debt, as a percentage of total capital, was 45.3 percent, 49.1 percent, and 44.8 percent at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The Company issued $3.8 billion of long-term notes and debentures during 1998 and $3.0 billion during 1997. These financings were used to refinance the debt associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense and to take advantage of favorable long-term interest rates in order to reduce short-term borrowings. Note H to the financial statements contains additional disclosures related to long-term debt. 11 Credit ratings for the Company were established by Moody's at P-2 for short-term borrowing and Baa1 for senior debt, Standard and Poor's at A-2 for short-term borrowing and BBB for senior debt, and Duff & Phelps at D-2 for short-term borrowing and BBB+ for senior debt. Lines of credit with certain commercial banks totaling $4.4 billion at December 31, 1998 exist as standby facilities to support the issuance of commercial paper by the Company. At December 31, 1998, there were no borrowings under these lines of credit. At December 31, 1997, the Company had lines of credit totaling $9.0 billion as a source of direct borrowing and as a standby facility to support the issuance of commercial paper of which $3.5 billion was outstanding. Given the present state of the financial markets and economic conditions, the Company does not currently anticipate making future borrowings under the remaining lines of credit. The Company's need for, cost of, and access to funds are dependent on future operating results, as well as conditions external to the Company. The Company believes that its cash position will be sufficient to maintain investment grade credit ratings and its sources of and access to capital markets are adequate to support current operations. The following discussion covers quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the Company's market risk. The Company's primary market exposures are to interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company meets its working capital requirements with a combination of variable rate short-term and fixed rate long-term financing. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with commercial banks primarily to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on short-term financing arrangements. The Company also enters into foreign exchange contracts with commercial banks to minimize fluctuations in the value of payments to international vendors and the value of foreign currency denominated receipts. The market-risk sensitive instruments used by the Company for hedging are entered into with commercial banks and are directly related to a particular asset, liability, or transaction for which a firm commitment is in place. Financial instruments held by the Company which are subject to interest rate risk include notes payable, commercial paper, long-term debt, long-term receivables, investments, and interest rate swap agreements. The aggregate hypothetical loss in earnings for one month of those financial instruments held by the Company at December 31, 1998 which are subject to interest rate risk resulting from a hypothetical increase in interest rates of 10 percent is not material. The hypothetical loss was determined by calculating the aggregate impact of a one-month increase of 10 percent in the interest rate of each variable rate financial instrument held by the Company at December 31, 1998 which is subject to interest rate risk. Fixed rate financial instruments were not evaluated, as the risk exposure is not material. 12 The Company's outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts include contracts to buy and/or sell British Pounds, Netherlands Guilders, German Marks, Canadian Dollars, Swiss Francs, and Norwegian Kroner. All foreign exchange contracts were related to specific transactions for which a firm commitment existed, and therefore the associated market risk of the market risk sensitive instruments and the underlying firm commitments in the aggregate is not material. On January 1, 1999, eleven participating countries of the European Union converted to a common currency, the Euro, which became their official currency. National currencies will initially remain legal tender. The Company recently conducted an internal analysis to determine the impact of the Euro conversion which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's business. Year 2000 Date Conversion The Year 2000 problem concerns the inability of information systems to recognize properly and process date-sensitive information beyond January 1, 2000. In January 1998, the Company initiated a formal comprehensive enterprise-wide program to identify and resolve Year 2000 related issues. The scope of the program includes the investigation of all Company functions and products, and all internally used hardware and software systems, including embedded systems in what are not traditionally considered information technology systems. The program has developed standard processes and an internal service center in support of Year 2000 readiness. The Company is following an eight-step risk management process grouped into two major phases, detection (planning and awareness, inventory, triage, and detailed assessment) and correction (resolution, test planning, test execution, and deployment). The Company has identified eight system types that could have risk as follows: application, infrastructure, test equipment, engineering computing, manufacturing, delivered product, facilities, and supply chain. The completion of several large acquisitions in recent years through which the Company inherited a large number of systems, products, and facilities adds to the complexity of this task. As the Company continues to acquire new businesses, these businesses must then be brought into the program. The detection phase of the program is currently estimated to be 95 percent complete. On the basis of expected total cost, the detection phase is 73 percent complete. The remaining work in this phase is expected to be completed in early 1999. The work in the detection phase has covered all eight system types, including delivered product and supply chain. 13 The Company has made substantial progress in the corrective action phase of the program, with 82 percent of the tasks required in this phase completed, up from 19 percent at the end of the third quarter of 1998. On the basis of expected total cost, the corrective action phase is 45 percent complete. The Company expects to complete corrective activities by the third quarter of 1999. The Company has instituted and is executing a formal audit program to assess the state of readiness. Also, the Company is assessing the risk of supplier readiness, and in selected cases will review the preparedness of individual suppliers for Year 2000. Finally, the Company plans to audit Year 2000 compliance of selected vendors. When the corrective action phase of the program is completed the Company expects to have developed contingency plans, augmenting existing disaster recovery plans and sourcing strategies, for identified risks. Since January 1998, the Company has spent approximately $67 million on the Year 2000 program, $16 million on the detection phase, and $51 million on the corrective action phase. Prior to 1998, expenditures on the program were insignificant. Total cost at completion of the program is currently estimated to be $136 million. Of the total $136 million estimated costs, $22 million relates to the detection phase and $114 million is for correction. All costs, except those for long-lived assets, are expensed as incurred. These costs include employees, inside and outside consultants and services, system replacements, and other equipment requirements. The Company has employed consultants in an advisory capacity, primarily in the detection phase. Total estimated costs of the Year 2000 program are predominantly internal. Although a number of minor information technology projects have been deferred as a result of the priority given to the Year 2000 program, no significant projects which would materially affect the Company's financial position or results of operations have been delayed. While the Company expects to resolve all Year 2000 risks without a material adverse effect on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate success of the program. Uncertainties exist as to the Company's ability to detect all Year 2000 problems as well as its ability to achieve successful and timely resolution of all Year 2000 issues. Uncertainties also exist concerning the preparedness of the Company's critical suppliers to avoid Year 2000 related service and delivery interruptions. A "reasonably likely worst case" scenario of Year 2000 risks for the Company could include isolated performance problems with manufacturing or administrative systems, isolated interruption of deliveries from critical suppliers, and product liability issues. The consequences of these issues may include increases in manufacturing and administrative costs until the problems are resolved, lost revenues, lower cash receipts, and product liability; however, the Company is unable to quantify the potential effect of these items on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition should some or a combination of these events come to pass. 14 Accounting Standards Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities (SOP 98-5). This accounting standard requires that certain start-up and pre-contract award costs be expensed as incurred. The Company will report a first quarter 1999 charge of $53 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, reflecting the initial application of SOP 98-5 and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999. In March 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use (SOP 98-1). This accounting standard, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, requires that certain costs incurred in connection with internal-use computer software projects be capitalized. The adoption of SOP 98-1 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). This accounting standard, which is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, requires that all derivatives be recognized as either assets or liabilities at estimated fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Forward-Looking Statements Statements which are not historical facts contained in this 1998 Annual Report are forward-looking statements under the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties. These risks include, in addition to the specific uncertainties referenced in this report, the effect of worldwide political and market conditions, the impact of competitive products and pricing, the timing of awards and contracts, particularly international contracts, and risks inherent with large long-term fixed price contracts. Further information regarding the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results can be found in "Item 1-Business" in Raytheon's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. 15 Raytheon Company Consolidated Balance Sheets (In millions except share amounts) December 31, 1998 December 31, 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assets =============================================================================== Current assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 421 $ 296 Accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts of $21 in 1998 and $22 in 1997 618 1,056 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes (note I) 809 1,244 Contracts in process (note D) 4,842 4,661 Inventories (note E) 1,711 1,837 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 236 139 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total current assets 8,637 9,233 Property, plant, and equipment, net (note F) 2,275 2,891 Goodwill, net of accumulated amortization of $669 in 1998 and $308 in 1997 14,431 13,836 Other assets, net (notes G and L) 2,596 2,638 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets $27,939 $28,598 =============================================================================== 16 Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity =============================================================================== Current liabilities Notes payable and current portion of long-term debt (note H) $ 827 $ 5,656 Advance payments, less contracts in process of $1,159 in 1998 and $420 in 1997 865 525 Accounts payable 2,091 1,845 Accrued salaries and wages 703 680 Other accrued expenses (note C) 2,194 2,509 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total current liabilities 6,680 11,215 Accrued retiree benefits and other long-term liabilities (notes C and L) 1,679 1,766 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes (note I) 561 786 Long-term debt (note H) 8,163 4,406 Commitments and contingencies (note J) Stockholders' equity (note P) Preferred stock, $0.01 par value, 200,000,000 shares authorized, none outstanding in 1998 and 1997 Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, 450,000,000 shares authorized, 101,503,000 and 102,630,000 shares outstanding in 1998 and 1997, respectively after deducting 839,000 treasury shares in 1998 1 1 Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, 1,000,000,000 shares authorized, 235,295,000 and 235,935,000 shares outstanding in 1998 and 1997, respectively after deducting 3,889,000 treasury shares in 1998 2 2 Additional paid-in capital 6,272 6,151 Accumulated other comprehensive income (50) (23) Treasury stock (257) -- Retained earnings 4,888 4,294 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total stockholders' equity 10,856 10,425 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $27,939 $28,598 =============================================================================== 17 Raytheon Company Consolidated Statements of Income (In millions except per share amounts) Years Ended December 31: 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales $19,530 $13,673 $12,331 Cost of sales 15,248 10,985 9,789 Administrative and selling expenses 1,664 1,189 1,021 Research and development expenses 582 415 323 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total operating expenses 17,494 12,589 11,133 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating income 2,036 1,084 1,198 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest expense 739 397 256 Interest and dividend income (28) (38) (102) Other income, net (142) (65) (39) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Non-operating expense, net 569 294 115 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income before taxes 1,467 790 1,083 Federal and foreign income taxes 603 263 322 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income $ 864 $ 527 $ 761 =============================================================================== Earnings per common share Basic $ 2.56 $ 2.20 $ 3.22 Diluted $ 2.53 $ 2.18 $ 3.17 18

All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Revenue Recognition Sales under long-term contracts are primarily recorded under the percentage of completion method. Costs and estimated gross margins are recorded as sales as work is performed based on the percentage that incurred costs bear to estimated total costs utilizing the most recent estimates of costs and funding. Some contracts contain incentive provisions based upon performance in relation to established targets which are recognized in the contract estimates as deemed appropriate. Since many contracts extend over a long period of time, revisions in cost and funding estimates during the progress of work have the effect of adjusting earnings applicable to performance in prior periods in the current period. When the current contract estimate indicates a loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the current period. Sales under certain fixed price contracts are recorded as products are shipped or services are rendered. Revenue from aircraft sales are generally recognized at the time of shipment. Revenue from certain qualifying non-cancelable aircraft lease contracts are accounted for as sales-type leases. The present value of all payments, net of executory costs, are recorded as revenue, and the related costs of the aircraft are charged to cost of sales. Associated interest, using the interest method, is recorded over the term of the lease agreements. All other leases for aircraft are accounted for under the operating method wherein revenue is recorded as earned over the rental aircraft lives. Service revenue is recognized ratably over contractual periods or as services are performed. Research and Development Expenses Expenditures for company-sponsored research and development projects are expensed as incurred. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Under the Company's cash management program, checks and amounts in transit prior to December 31, 1998 were not considered reductions of cash or accounts payable until presented to the appropriate banks for payment. At December 31, 1997, checks and amounts in transit were $290 million. Cash equivalents are valued in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (SFAS No. 115). Contracts in Process Contracts in process are stated at cost plus estimated profit but not in excess of realizable value. 21 Inventories Inventories at Raytheon Aircraft are stated at the lower of cost (principally last-in, first-out) or market. All other inventories are stated at cost (principally first-in, first-out or average cost) but not in excess of realizable value. Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Major improvements are capitalized while expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and minor improvements are charged to expense. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. Provisions for depreciation are generally computed on a combination of accelerated and straight-line methods. Depreciation provisions are based on estimated useful lives as follows: buildings - 20 to 45 years, machinery and equipment - 3 to 10 years, and equipment leased to others - 5 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the remaining life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the improvement. Goodwill Goodwill is amortized on the straight-line method over its estimated useful life, but not in excess of 40 years. The Company evaluates the possible impairment of goodwill at each reporting period based on the undiscounted projected cash flows of the related business unit. Impairment of Long-lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the related estimated undiscounted future cash flows. When an evaluation indicates that the future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset, the asset is adjusted to its estimated fair value. Investments Investments include equity ownership of 20 percent to 50 percent in affiliated companies and of less than 20 percent in other companies. Investments in affiliated companies are accounted for under the equity method, wherein the Company's share of earnings and income taxes applicable to the assumed distribution of such earnings are included in net income. Other investments are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, and certain available for sale investments are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115. Federal and Foreign Income Taxes The Company and its domestic subsidiaries provide for federal income taxes on pretax accounting income at rates in effect under existing tax law. Foreign subsidiaries have recorded provisions for income taxes at applicable foreign tax rates in a similar manner. 22 Translation of Foreign Currencies Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and the effects of these translation adjustments are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity. The balance at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $(37) million and $(28) million, respectively. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in 1998, 1997, and 1996 were not material. Accounting Pronouncements The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS No. 130), during 1998. SFAS No. 130 established standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components, and is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity. The SFAS No. 115 valuation adjustment is shown net of tax benefits (provisions) of $3 million, $(14) million, and $8 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities (SOP 98-5). This accounting standard requires that certain start-up and pre-contract award costs be expensed as incurred. The Company will report a first quarter 1999 charge of $53 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, reflecting the initial application of SOP 98-5 and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999. Pension Costs The Company has several pension and retirement plans covering the majority of employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. Annual charges to income are made for the cost of the plans, including current service costs, interest on projected benefit obligations, and net amortization and deferrals, increased or reduced by the return on assets. Unfunded accumulated benefit obligations are accounted for as a long-term liability on the balance sheet. The Company annually funds those pension costs which are calculated in accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations and standards issued by the Cost Accounting Standards Board. Interest Rate Swap Agreements and Foreign Exchange Contracts The Company meets its working capital requirements with a combination of variable rate short-term and fixed rate long-term financing. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with commercial banks primarily to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on short-term financing arrangements. Settlement accounting is used for interest rate swaps. The Company also enters into foreign exchange contracts to minimize fluctuations in the value of payments due to international vendors and the value of foreign currency denominated receipts. The hedges used by the Company are transaction driven and are directly related to a particular asset, liability, or transaction for which a commitment is in place. Hedge accounting is used for foreign exchange contracts. Unrealized gains and losses are classified in the same manner as the item being hedged and are recognized in income when the transaction is complete. Interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts are held to maturity and no exchange-traded or over-the-counter instruments have been purchased. Cash flows are recognized in the statement of cash flows in the same category as the related item. The impact on the financial position and results of operations from likely changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates is not material due to the minimizing of risk through the hedging of transactions related to specific assets, liabilities, or commitments. 23 Employee Stock Plans Proceeds from the exercise of stock options under employee stock plans are credited to common stock at par value, and the excess is credited to additional paid-in capital. There are no charges or credits to income for stock options. The fair value at the date of award of restricted stock is credited to common stock at par value, and the excess is credited to additional paid-in capital. The fair value is also charged to income as compensation expense over the vesting period. Income tax benefits arising from restricted stock transactions, employees' premature disposition of stock option shares, and exercise of non-qualified stock options are credited to additional paid-in capital. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) in 1996. The standard defines a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock options. The pro forma net income and earnings per share effect of the fair value based accounting are disclosed in Note K, Employee Stock Plans. Risks and Uncertainties Companies, such as Raytheon, which are engaged in supplying defense-related equipment to the government, are subject to certain business risks peculiar to that industry. Sales to the government may be affected by changes in procurement policies, budget considerations, changing concepts of national defense, political developments abroad, and other factors. The Company has maintained a solid foundation of defense systems which meet the needs of the United States and its allies, as well as serving a broad government program base and range of commercial electronics businesses. These factors lead management to believe that there is high probability of continuation of the Company's current major defense programs. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 24 Note B: Acquisitions and Divestitures The Company acquired the Texas Instruments' defense business (TI Defense) in July 1997 and merged with the defense business of Hughes Electronics Corporation (Hughes Defense) in December 1997. The following unaudited pro forma financial information combines the results of operations of Raytheon, TI Defense, and Hughes Defense as if the acquisition and merger had taken place on January 1, 1997 and January 1, 1996: (In millions except per share amounts) 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales $ 21,359 $ 20,514 Net income 564 917 Basic earnings per share 1.67 2.70 Diluted earnings per share 1.66 2.68 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what the results of operations would have been if the transactions had occurred on the applicable dates indicated, do not reflect the cost and revenue synergies expected to be realized, and are not intended to be indicative of future results of operations. The Hughes transaction, valued at $9.5 billion subject to post-closing adjustments, was comprised of approximately $5.5 billion in common stock and $4.0 billion in debt, which was assumed by the merged company. TI Defense was acquired for $2.9 billion in cash. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. While the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. Assets acquired in conjunction with the merger with Hughes Defense include contracts in process of $1,357 million, inventories of $259 million, other current assets of $765 million, property, plant, and equipment of $924 million, and other assets of $1,609 million (primarily pension related). Liabilities assumed include debt of $4,033 million, current liabilities of $2,846 million, and long-term liabilities of $986 million. Goodwill resulting from the fair value of this transaction was $8,965 million. Assets acquired in conjunction with the acquisition of TI Defense include accounts receivable of $229 million, inventories of $223 million, other current assets of $126 million, and property, plant, and equipment of $306 million. Liabilities assumed include current liabilities of $646 million and long-term liabilities of $147 million. Goodwill resulting from the fair value of this transaction was $2,929 million. In 1998, the Company acquired AlliedSignal's Communications Systems business for $63 million. Also in 1998, the Company sold its commercial laundry business unit for $315 million in cash and $19 million in securities, its Raytheon Aircraft Montek subsidiary for $160 million, and other non-core business operations for $273 million. 25 In 1997, the Company sold its home appliance, heating, air conditioning, and commercial cooking operations for $522 million. Also in 1997, the Company sold its Switchcraft and Semiconductor divisions for $183 million. The Company has included in its consolidated results of operations the following acquisitions made in June 1996, under the purchase method of accounting: the aircraft modification and defense electronics businesses of Chrysler Technologies, the engineering and construction assets of Rust International, and the marine communication assets of Standard Radio AB of Sweden. The cost of the acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $584 million. No pro forma results have been presented since they would not be material to the Company's consolidated results. In April 1996, the Company sold Xyplex, its data-networking subsidiary, for $118 million in cash and securities. Note C: Restructuring and Special Charges Restructuring charges and exit costs recognized in connection with business combinations include the cost of involuntary employee termination benefits and related employee severance costs, facility closures, and other costs associated with the Company's approved plans. Employee termination benefits include severance, wage continuation, medical, and other benefits. Facility closure and related costs include disposal costs of property, plant, and equipment, lease payments, lease termination costs, and net gain or loss on sales of closed facilities. In 1998, the Company recorded restructuring and special charges totaling $252 million of which $85 million is included in cost of sales and $167 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. The charges included $33 million for costs pertaining to restructuring actions taken by the Engineering and Construction segment, $167 million for asset impairments in the Electronics businesses, and $52 million for asset impairments in the Engineering and Construction segment. In 1997, the Company recorded restructuring and special charges totaling $495 million of which $401 million is included in cost of sales and $94 million is included in administrative and selling expenses. The charges included $295 million for costs related to restructuring actions at the Electronics businesses ($220 million) and at the Engineering and Construction segment ($75 million). The charges also included $63 million for one-time costs associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Special charges of $137 million related to asset impairments in the Electronics businesses ($57 million), contract valuations in the Engineering and Construction segment ($50 million), and a permanent impairment in the Aircraft segment ($30 million). In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge, which is included in cost of sales. 26 Restructuring Charges and Exit Costs -- Electronics In January 1998, the Company announced plans to consolidate and reorganize its Electronics businesses, including the operations of Hughes Defense and TI Defense. In connection with these actions, the Company recorded $804 million of restructuring and exit costs. The Company recorded a $220 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997, including $148 million for employee separation costs and $72 million for facilities exit costs. While a higher than planned rate of attrition and lower than expected cost of severance per employee have reduced the Company's estimates of employee related costs, these costs savings have been more than offset by higher than expected facilities exit costs. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company committed to close additional facilities and further reduce employment. The Company's revised estimate of exit costs include $125 million for employee separation costs and $95 million for facilities exit costs. The remaining $584 million of exit costs were recorded as liabilities assumed in connection with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. Costs of $300 million were recorded in 1997, reflecting the Company's initial plan related to the reorganization and consolidation of these operations. In 1998, as a result of finalization of these plans, additional exit costs of $284 million were accrued. The Company's final estimate of exit costs include $260 million for employee separation costs and $324 million for facilities exit costs. The $804 million of restructuring and exit costs provides for severance and related benefits for approximately 15,400 employees and costs to vacate and dispose of approximately 11 million square feet of facility space. The Company expects to essentially complete these actions by the end of 1999. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required. Electronics Restructuring and Exit Costs - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accrued liability at beginning of year $ 520 -- Charges and liabilities accrued Severance and other employee related costs 35 $ 350 Facility closure and related costs 249 170 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 284 520 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Costs incurred Severance and other employee related costs 104 -- Facility closure and related costs 137 -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 241 -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accrued liability at end of year $ 563 $ 520 =============================================================================== Cash expenditures $ 234 -- Number of employee terminations due to restructuring actions 6,600 -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27 In addition to the $241 million of restructuring and exit costs incurred in 1998, the Company also incurred $56 million of capital expenditures and period expenses in 1998 related to the implementation of the Electronics businesses consolidation and reorganization. Restructuring Charges -- Engineering and Construction In January 1998, the Company announced plans to reduce the Raytheon Engineers & Constructors (RE&C) workforce by 1,000 employees and to close or partially close 16 offices, or approximately 1.1 million square feet of facilities. In connection with these actions and other committed but unannounced actions, the Company recorded a $75 million restructuring charge in the fourth quarter of 1997. The restructuring charge included $31 million for employee severance for approximately 2,300 people, including the 1,000 positions announced in January 1998, and $44 million for facilities exit. In the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company modified the plan that was announced in January 1998 to close fewer facilities. As a result of the modification, the number of employee terminations was reduced from approximately 2,300 people to approximately 1,400 people; however, the cost savings realized as a result of these reductions were offset by higher than expected facilities exit costs. In October 1998, the Company also announced plans for an additional 260 person reduction in the RE&C workforce and recorded an additional $33 million restructuring charge. While these actions are intended to improve the Company's competitive position, there can be no assurances as to their ultimate success or that additional restructuring actions will not be required.

As a result, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment of its investment in the joint venture, reducing the book value of the investment to estimated fair value. During the third quarter of 1998, the financial condition of the joint venture deteriorated further, and the Company recorded an additional $83 million special charge to exit a line of business, which included writing off its remaining investment in the Korean joint venture. In 1998, the Company also recorded a $52 million special charge for asset impairment related to the RE&C restructuring actions to exit two operations which are scheduled to be closed in 1999. The charge includes $45 million of goodwill associated with one of the operations to be exited and $7 million for the estimated loss on disposition of the other operation. Also in 1998, the Company recorded a $42 million special charge to write down the assets of two operations in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell to estimated fair value of approximately $125 million. One sale was completed during 1998. The other sale is expected to close in 1999. The operating results, which are not material, continue to be included in the Company's results of operations. In 1997, the Company recorded a $63 million special charge primarily for one-time costs in the Electronics businesses associated with the merger with Hughes Defense and the acquisition of TI Defense. The Company also recorded a $57 million special charge primarily to write down to estimated fair value certain assets in the Electronics businesses that the Company had decided to sell. The sale of these assets was completed in 1998 and the proceeds and loss on disposition were not material. Also in 1997, the Company recorded a $50 million special charge for contract valuations at RE&C and a $30 million special charge to recognize a permanent impairment at Raytheon Aircraft. In 1996, the Company recorded a $34 million special charge to close a Major Appliances operation. 29 Note D: Contracts in Process (In millions) Contracts in process consisted of the following at December 31, 1998: Cost Type Fixed Price Type Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. government end-use contracts Billed $ 374 $ 555 $ 929 Unbilled 928 4,150 5,078 Less progress payments -- (2,753) (2,753) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 1,302 1,952 3,254 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other customers Billed 300 498 798 Unbilled 418 864 1,282 Less progress payments -- (492) (492) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 718 870 1,588 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 2,020 $ 2,822 $ 4,842 =============================================================================== (In millions) Contracts in process consisted of the following at December 31, 1997: Cost Type Fixed Price Type Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. government end-use contracts Billed $ 534 $ 400 $ 934 Unbilled 404 3,658 4,062 Less progress payments -- (1,968) (1,968) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 938 2,090 3,028 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other customers Billed 70 321 391 Unbilled 210 1,308 1,518 Less progress payments -- (276) (276) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 280 1,353 1,633 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 1,218 $ 3,443 $ 4,661 =============================================================================== The U.S. government has a security title to unbilled amounts associated with contracts that provide for progress payments. Unbilled amounts are primarily recorded on the percentage of completion method and are recoverable from the customer upon shipment of the product, presentation of billings, or completion of the contract. Billed and unbilled contracts in process include retentions arising from contractual provisions. At December 31, 1998, retentions amounted to $279 million and are anticipated to be collected as follows: 1999-$132 million, 2000-$90 million, and the balance thereafter. 30 Note E: Inventories (In millions) Inventories consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finished goods $ 317 $ 314 Work in process 915 1,340 Materials and purchased parts 746 509 Excess of current cost over LIFO values (150) (154) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,828 2,009 Less progress payments (117) (172) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 1,711 $ 1,837 ============================================================================== Included in inventories are amounts related to certain fixed price contracts under which sales are recorded as products are shipped. The inventory values from which the excess of current cost over LIFO values are deductible were $564 million and $504 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Note F: Property, Plant, and Equipment (In millions) Property, plant, and equipment consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Land $ 70 $ 78 Buildings and leasehold improvements 1,828 1,754 Machinery and equipment 2,376 3,299 Equipment leased to others 201 119 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4,475 5,250 Less accumulated depreciation and amortization (2,200) (2,359) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $2,275 $2,891 ============================================================================== Depreciation expense was $380 million, $318 million, and $276 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. During September 1998, the Company entered into a $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility. Accumulated depreciation of equipment leased to others was $10 million and $8 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Future minimum lease payments from non-cancelable aircraft operating leases, which extend to 2013, amounted to $90 million. 31 At December 31, 1998, these payments were due as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (In millions) 1999 $ 16 2000 16 2001 16 2002 13 2003 8 Thereafter 21 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note G: Other Assets (In millions) Other assets consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Long-term receivables Due from customers in installments to 2012 $ 222 $ 148 Sales-type leases, due in installments to 2015 20 27 Other, principally due through 2007 42 42 Investments 387 372 Prepaid pension and other noncurrent assets 1,925 2,049 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ 2,596 $ 2,638 ============================================================================== The Company provides long-term financing principally to its aircraft customers. Long-term receivables include commuter airline receivables of $113 million and $63 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Since it is the Company's policy to have the aircraft serve as collateral for the commuter airline receivables, the Company does not expect to incur any material losses against the net book value of the long-term receivables. The Company sells receivables, including government short-term receivables, general and commuter aviation long-term receivables, and engineering and construction short-term receivables, to a bank syndicate and other financial institutions. The banks have a first priority claim on all proceeds, including the underlying equipment and any insurance proceeds, and have recourse against the Company, at varying percentages, depending upon the character of the receivables sold. For the general and commuter aviation long-term receivables, the underlying aircraft serve as collateral for the aircraft receivables, and the future resale value of the aircraft is an important consideration in the transaction. Based on experience to date with resale activities and pricing, the Company believes that any liability arising from these transactions will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. 32 In connection with the sale of receivables, the following special purpose entities had been established as of December 31, 1998: Raytheon Receivables, Inc., Raytheon Aircraft Receivables Corporation, and Raytheon Engineers & Constructors Receivables Corporation. The Company sells receivables through these special purpose entities, retains the servicing rights, and receives a servicing fee which is recognized as collected over the remaining term of the related receivables sold. Estimated gains or losses from the sale of receivables are recognized in the period in which the sale occurs. In determining the gain or loss on each qualifying sale of receivables, the investment in the sold receivable pool is allocated between the portion sold and the portion retained based on their relative estimated fair values at the date of sale. The retained interest includes servicing rights, interest only strips, and subordinated certificates. These financial instruments are recorded at estimated fair value. The balance of receivables sold to banks or financial institutions outstanding at December 31, 1998 and 1997, was $3,002 million and $2,909 million, respectively. Note H: Notes Payable and Long-term Debt (In millions) Debt consisted of the following at December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes payable at a weighted average interest rate of 6.71% for 1998 and 6.30% for 1997 $ 34 $ 3,641 Commercial paper at a weighted average interest rate of 5.91% for 1998 and 6.46% for 1997 785 2,010 Current portion of long-term debt 8 5 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes payable and current portion of long-term debt 827 5,656 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes due through 2005, 5.70% to 6.50%, not redeemable prior to maturity 3,557 2,206 Notes due from 2007 to 2010, 6.15% to 6.75%, redeemable at any time 2,002 957 Debentures due from 2010 to 2028, 6.00% to 7.375%, redeemable at varying dates 2,212 826 Commercial paper backed by five year fixed for variable interest rate swap at 6.40% 375 375 Other notes with varying interest rates 25 47 Less installments due within one year (8) (5) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-term debt 8,163 4,406 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total debt $8,990 $10,062 =============================================================================== 33 In 1998, the Company issued $500 million of 5.95% notes due in 2001, $450 million of 6.30% notes due in 2005, $400 million of 5.70% notes due in 2003, $750 million of 6.15% notes due in 2008, $300 million of 6.55% notes due in 2010, $250 million of 6.00% debentures due in 2010, $550 million of 6.40% debentures due in 2018, $350 million of 6.75% debentures due in 2018, and $250 million of 7.00% debentures due in 2028. The proceeds from these issues were used for acquisition refinancing and to reduce short-term borrowings. In 1997, the Company issued $500 million of 7.20% debentures due in 2027, $1,000 million of 6.75% notes due in 2007, $1,000 million of 6.45% notes due in 2002, and $500 million of 6.30% notes due in 2000. The proceeds from these issues were used for acquisition financing. Commercial paper in the amount of $375 million has been classified as long-term due to Company borrowings of that amount which are supported by a five year Syndicated Bank Credit Agreement combined with a five year fixed for variable interest rate swap which matures during 2000. Excluding commercial paper classified as long-term, the aggregate amounts of installments due on long-term debt for the next five years are: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1999 $ 8 2000 877 2001 502 2002 1,002 2003 403 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lines of credit with certain commercial banks totaling $4.4 billion at December 31, 1998 exist as standby facilities to support the issuance of commercial paper by the Company. At December 31, 1998, there were no borrowings under these lines of credit. At December 31, 1997, the Company had lines of credit totaling $9.0 billion as a source of direct borrowing and as a standby facility to support the issuance of commercial paper of which $3.5 billion was outstanding. Credit lines or commitments with banks were maintained by subsidiary companies amounting to $202 million and $252 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Compensating balance arrangements are not material. The principal amounts of long-term debt were reduced by debt issue discounts and interest rate hedging costs of $76 million and $105 million respectively, on the date of issuance, and are reflected as follows at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Principal $8,317 $4,542 Unamortized issue discounts (66) (38) Unamortized interest rate hedging costs (88) (98) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-term debt $8,163 $4,406 =============================================================================== 34 The Company has bank agreement covenants. The most restrictive requires that the earnings before interest and taxes be at least three times net interest expense for the prior four quarters. The Company was in compliance with this covenant during 1998, 1997, and 1996. Total interest payments were $778 million, $295 million, and $257 million for 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Note I: Federal and Foreign Income Taxes Income reported for federal and foreign tax purposes differs from pretax accounting income due to variations between Internal Revenue Code requirements and the Company's accounting practices. The provisions for federal and foreign income taxes in 1998, 1997, and 1996 consisted of the following: (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current income tax expense Federal $ 46 $191 $170 Foreign 7 9 34 Deferred income tax expense (benefit) Federal 559 61 151 Foreign (9) 2 (33) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $603 $263 $322 =============================================================================== The provision for income taxes in 1998, 1997, and 1996 differs from the U.S. statutory rate due to the following: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tax at statutory rate 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% Research and development tax credit (0.3) (2.2) (4.6) Foreign sales corporation tax benefit (1.3) (2.1) (2.5) Goodwill amortization 7.7 3.2 1.7 Other, net -- (0.6) 0.1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 41.1% 33.3% 29.7% =============================================================================== In 1998, 1997, and 1996, domestic profit before taxes amounted to $1,431 million, $743 million, and $1,061 million, respectively, and foreign profit before taxes amounted to $36 million, $47 million, and $22 million, respectively. Cash (refunds) payments were $(16) million, $169 million, and $275 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. In 1998 and 1997, net deferred tax assets were increased by $371 million and $393 million, respectively, in connection with acquisitions and subsequent adjustments to acquisitions. 35 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes consisted of the following at: (In millions) December 31: 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Current deferred tax assets (liabilities) Inventory and other $ 84 $ 444 Long-term contracts 459 582 Restructuring reserves 262 126 Inventory capitalization (27) (24) Other 31 85 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net current deferred tax assets 809 1,213 Current period tax prepaid 31 Deferred federal and foreign income taxes -- current $ 809 $1,244 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Noncurrent deferred tax assets (liabilities) Depreciation $(159) $ (284) Revenue on leases (104) (75) Pension (521) (588) Postretirement benefits 249 247 Other (26) (86) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred federal and foreign income taxes -- noncurrent $(561) $ (786) =============================================================================== At December 31, 1998, $105 million of taxes payable was included in accounts payable. Note J: Commitments and Contingencies At December 31, 1998, the Company had commitments under long-term leases requiring approximate annual rentals on a net lease basis as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1999 $366 2000 331 2001 292 2002 236 2003 355 Thereafter 881 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Remaining lease payments under the Company's $490 million property sale and five-year operating lease facility, which are included in the table above, approximate $109 million in 1999, $94 million in 2000, $77 million in 2001, $63 million in 2002, and $212 million in 2003. The lease facility contains covenants that are substantially similar to those in the Company's senior credit facilities. Certain lease commitments will be terminated or reduced in connection with facility and office closures and the optimization of facility utilization. Rental expense for 1998, 1997, and 1996 amounted to $283 million, $136 million, and $113 million, respectively. 36 Defense contractors are subject to many levels of audit and investigation. Among agencies that oversee contract performance are the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Inspector General, the Defense Criminal Investigative Service, the General Accounting Office, the Department of Justice, and Congressional Committees. Over recent years, the Department of Justice has convened Grand Juries from time to time to investigate possible irregularities by the Company in government contracting. Such investigations, individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company self-insures for losses and expenses for aircraft product liability up to a maximum of $50 million annually. Insurance is purchased from third parties to cover excess aggregate liability exposure from $50 million to $1.2 billion. This coverage also includes the excess of liability over $10 million per occurrence. The aircraft product liability reserve was $30 million at December 31, 1998. Recurring costs associated with the Company's environmental compliance program are not material and are expensed as incurred. Capital expenditures in connection with environmental compliance are not material. The Company is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup relative to remediation of various sites. All appropriate costs expected to be incurred in connection therewith have been accrued at December 31, 1998. Due to the complexity of environmental laws and regulations, the varying costs and effectiveness of alternative cleanup methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance coverage, and the unresolved extent of the Company's responsibility, it is difficult to determine the ultimate outcome of these matters; however, any additional liability is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations after giving effect to provisions previously recorded. The Company issues guarantees and has banks issue, on its behalf, letters of credit to meet various bid, performance, warranty, retention, and advance payment obligations. Approximately $1,527 million, $1,148 million, and $1,363 million of these contingent obligations, net of related outstanding advance payments, were outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. These instruments expire on various dates through the year 2005. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, which requires an adjustment based on net assets, the final purchase price for Hughes Defense has not been determined. While the Company expects a reduction in purchase price from the original terms of the agreement, the amount, timing, and effect on the Company's financial position are uncertain. In addition, various claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or threatened against the Company. While the ultimate liability from these proceedings is presently indeterminable, any additional liability is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations after giving effect to provisions already recorded. 37 Note K: Employee Stock Plans The 1976 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of both incentive and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which is 100 percent of the fair value on the date of grant. No further grants are allowed under this plan. The 1991 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options at an exercise price which is 100 percent of the fair value, and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which may be less than the fair value on the date of grant. The 1995 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of both incentive and nonqualified stock options at an exercise price which is not less than 100 percent of the fair value on the date of grant. The plans also provide that all stock options may be exercised in their entirety 12 to 24 months after the date of grant. Incentive stock options terminate 10 years from the date of grant, and those stock options granted after December 31, 1986 become exercisable to a maximum of $100,000 per year. Nonqualified stock options terminate 11 years from the date of grant or 10 years and a day if issued in connection with the 1995 Stock Option Plan. In 1997, the Company issued conversion stock options covering 4.8 million shares in substitution of nonqualified stock options held by employees of TI Defense and Hughes Defense. In accordance with the terms of the original grants, these replacement stock options have remaining exercise periods of up to nine years and become exercisable at various times through January 2001. The 1991 Stock Plan also provides for the award of restricted stock and restricted units. The 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan provides for the award of restricted stock to nonemployee directors. Restricted awards are made at prices determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and are compensatory in nature. Restricted stock and restricted unit awards vest over a specified period of time of not less than one year and not more than 10 years. No further grants are allowed under the 1991 Stock Plan, 1995 Stock Option Plan, and 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan after March 26, 2001, March 21, 2005, and November 25, 2006, respectively. Restricted stock awards entitle the participant to full dividend and voting rights. Unvested shares are restricted as to disposition and subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting periods. Awards of 541,100, 315,900, and 19,500 shares of restricted stock and restricted units were made to employees and directors at a weighted average value at the grant date of $57.21, $47.92, and $50.87 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. There were 834,900, 1,678,700, and 1,443,400 shares of restricted stock and restricted units outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The amount of compensation expense recorded was $15 million, $22 million, and $7 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. In 1997, $12 million of compensation expense was related to accelerated vesting of restricted stock as a result of the merger with Hughes Defense. There were 53.7 million, 52.8 million, and 49.6 million shares of common stock (including shares held in treasury) reserved for stock options and restricted stock awards at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The 1976 Stock Option Plan, 1991 Stock Plan, 1995 Stock Option Plan, and 1997 Nonemployee Directors Restricted Stock Plan utilize Class B common stock. 38 Information for 1998, 1997, and 1996 follows: Weighted Average (Share amounts in thousands) Shares Option Price - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1995 10,781 $30.63 Granted 3,890 52.53 Exercised (1,845) 26.91 Expired (256) 45.47 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1996 12,570 $37.65 Granted 8,950 43.84 Exercised (1,698) 31.18 Expired (312) 49.13 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1997 19,510 $40.87 Granted 6,945 55.54 Exercised (2,917) 35.44 Expired (816) 51.13 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1998 22,722 $45.68 =============================================================================== The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at December 31, 1998 (share amounts in thousands): - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Options Outstanding Options Exercisable - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ Weighted Shares Average Weighted Shares Weighted Outstanding Contractual Average Exercisable Average Exercise at December 31, Remaining Exercise at December 31, Exercise Price Range 1998 Life Price 1998 Price - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ $14.51 to $29.63 2,705 5.2 years $22.65 2,537 $22.41 $31.13 to $49.75 6,589 6.8 years $38.27 5,355 $36.68 $51.06 to $54.69 7,156 7.6 years $52.14 6,921 $52.11 $55.59 to $59.31 6,272 9.5 years $56.02 134 $56.16 - ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ Total 22,722 14,947 ===================================================== ======================== Shares exercisable at the corresponding weighted average exercise price at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, were 14.9 million at $41.58, 13.0 million at $37.35, and 8.8 million at $31.32. 39 The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its stock-based compensation plans other than for restricted stock. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized for the stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans, consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have approximated the pro forma amounts indicated below: (In millions except per share amounts) 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income-as reported $ 864 $ 527 $ 761 Net income-pro forma $ 820 $ 484 $ 739 Basic earnings per share- as reported $2.56 $2.20 $3.22 pro forma $2.43 $2.02 $3.12 Diluted earnings per share- as reported $2.53 $2.18 $3.17 pro forma $2.40 $2.00 $3.08 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The weighted average fair value of each option granted in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, is estimated as $10.40, $17.41, and $10.79 on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expected life 4 years Assumed annual dividend growth rate (5 year historical rate) 6% Expected volatility 15% Risk free interest rate (month-end yields on 4 year treasury strips equivalent zero coupon) 4.4% to 5.7% range Assumed annual forfeiture rate 5% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effects of applying SFAS No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts. SFAS No. 123 does not apply to awards prior to 1995, and additional awards in future years are anticipated. Note L: Pension and Other Employee Benefits The Company has several pension and retirement plans covering the majority of its employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. The major plans provide pension benefits that are based on the five highest consecutive years of the employee's annual compensation in the ten years before retirement. Some of the plans covering hourly and union employees also contain provisions based upon a stated benefit amount per year of service. The Company's funding policy, for the majority of the plans, is to contribute annually at a rate that is intended to remain at a level percentage of compensation for the covered employees. Unfunded prior service costs under the funding policy are generally amortized over periods from 10 to 30 years. 40 Total pension expense includes foreign pension expense of $10 million, $11 million, and $10 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Plan assets consist primarily of equity securities (including 13,919,000 shares of Raytheon Company Class A and Class B common stock combined, with a fair value of $736 million at December 31, 1998) and fixed income securities (including $15 million of Raytheon Company 6.75% notes due in 2007). In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all of the Company's U.S. employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach normal retirement age while working for the Company. Some of the retiree health plans are paid for, in part, by retiree contributions, which are adjusted annually. Benefits are provided through various insurance companies whose charges are based either on the benefits paid during the year or annual premiums. Health benefits are provided to retirees, their covered dependents, and beneficiaries. Retiree life insurance plans cover the retiree only. In 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions. At adoption, some of the plans began amortizing past service cost over 20 years, while others recognized the past service cost immediately. The Company is funding the liability for certain salaried and hourly employees and plans to continue to do so. The information presented below includes the effect of acquisitions, subsequent adjustments to acquisitions, and divestitures. Effective December 31, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. This accounting standard revised the disclosure requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit plans.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effect of a one percent increase and decrease in the assumed health care trend rate for each future year for the aggregate of service and interest cost is $9 million and $(5) million, respectively, and for the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation is $99 million and $(66) million, respectively. The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair value of plan assets for the pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $515 million, $483 million, and $151 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1998 and $350 million, $322 million, and $47 million, respectively, as of December 31, 1997. Under the terms of various savings and investment plans (defined contribution plans), covered employees are allowed to contribute up to a specific percentage of their pay, generally limited to $30,000 per year. The Company matches the employee's contribution, up to a maximum of generally between three and four percent of the employee's pay. Total expense for defined contribution plans was $121 million, $78 million, and $71 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The increase in 1998 expense is attributable to the merger with Hughes Defense in December 1997. 43 The Company's annual contribution to the Raytheon Employee Stock Ownership Plans is approximately one-half of one percent of salaries and wages, limited to $160,000, of most United States salaried and hourly employees. The expense was $18 million, $15 million, and $15 million and the number of shares allocated to participant accounts was 271,000, 290,000, and 296,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Note M: Business Segment Reporting The Company operates in three major business areas: Electronics, both defense and commercial, Engineering and Construction, and Aircraft. The Company is a leader in defense electronics, including missiles; radar; sensors and electro-optics; reconnaissance, surveillance and intelligence; command, control, communication, and information; training; simulation and services; naval and air traffic control systems; and aircraft integration systems. The Engineering and Construction segment offers full-service engineering and construction capabilities to clients worldwide. The Aircraft segment is one of the leading providers of business and special mission aircraft and delivers a broad line of jet, turboprop, and piston-powered airplanes to corporate and military customers worldwide. The Major Appliances segment was substantially divested in 1997 with the remaining operations sold in 1998. As a result of these dispositions, the Company has included the remaining operations of the Major Appliances segment within Total Electronics in 1998 and 1997. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS No. 131) during the fourth quarter of 1998. SFAS No. 131 established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information about operating segments. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Reportable segments within Electronics have been determined based upon product lines and include the following: Defense Systems; Sensors and Electronics Systems; Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems; Command, Control, and Communication Systems; Training and Services; Commercial Electronics, and Other. Certain operating segments within Electronics have been aggregated as they exhibit similar long-term financial performance characteristics and do not meet the quantitative threshold. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed a reorganization of certain business segments to better align the operations with customer needs and to eliminate management redundancy. The Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems segment, with the exception of its Aircraft Integration Systems division, will merge with Command, Control, and Communication Systems to create Command, Control, Communication, and Information Systems. The Aircraft Integration Systems division was established as a separate segment called Aircraft Integration Systems. This organizational change will be reflected in the Company's 1999 financial statements. 44 Operations by Business Segments =============================================================================== Sales Operating income - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defense Systems $ 4,958 $ 885 Sensors and Electronics Systems 3,011 540 Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems 2,667 305 Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other 4,186 302 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Electronics 14,822 $ 8,972 $ 6,186 2,032 $ 856 $ 793 Engineering and Construction 2,065 2,255 2,291 (253) 19 184 Aircraft 2,643 2,446 2,345 257 209 181 Major Appliances -- -- 1,509 -- -- 40 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $19,530 $13,673 $12,331 $2,036 $1,084 $1,198 =============================================================================== Depreciation and Capital expenditures amortization - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defense Systems $ 79 $ 190 Sensors and Electronics Systems 117 194 Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems 45 114 Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other 79 158 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Electronics 320 $ 257 $ 160 656 $ 360 $ 233 Engineering and Construction 41 18 27 28 33 24 Aircraft 148 184 140 77 64 50 Major Appliances -- -- 79 -- -- 62 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $ 509 $ 459 $ 406 $ 761 $ 457 $ 369 =============================================================================== 45 Identifiable assets Change in net debt at December 31: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In millions) 1998 1997 1996 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Defense Systems $ 3,499 $ (396) Sensors and Electronics Systems 1,722 (101) Intelligence, Information, and Aircraft Integration Systems 1,870 (161) Command, Control, and Communication Systems, Training and Services, Commercial Electronics, and Other 3,297 (322) Unallocated Electronics Items 12,907 387 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Electronics 23,295 $23,132 $ 6,177 (593) Engineering and Construction 1,495 1,758 1,564 (239) Aircraft 2,377 2,510 2,153 (130) Major Appliances -- -- 815 -- Corporate 772 1,198 489 (235) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $27,939 $28,598 $11,198 $(1,197) $6,178 $1,095 =============================================================================== Identifiable assets attributed to Unallocated Electronics Items primarily consist of goodwill and prepaid pension. While these assets have not been allocated back to the segments, the associated income statement impact, including goodwill amortization, has been included in the determination of the Electronics segments operating income. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated at the segment level for sales and operating income. Intercompany receivables are included in identifiable assets. Change in net debt represents the Company's internal criteria for evaluating cash flow performance by the segments. This amount includes intercompany balances that are eliminated in consolidation and is not necessarily representative of actual cash flows determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Information for the segments that comprise Total Electronics and all information related to the change in net debt has not been presented for 1997 and 1996, because the Company determined that it was impracticable to obtain the comparative information due to the significant acquisitions, divestitures, and reorganizations that took place during 1998 and 1997. 46 Operations by Geographic Areas =============================================================================== Outside United States (In millions) United States (Principally Europe) Consolidated - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sales to unaffiliated customers - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1998 $18,528 $1,002 $19,530 1997 12,907 766 13,673 1996 11,570 761 12,331 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Identifiable assets at - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 31, 1998 $26,934 $1,005 $27,939 December 31, 1997 27,976 622 28,598 December 31, 1996 10,545 653 11,198 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- United States (U.S.) sales of $18,528 million, $12,907 million, and $11,570 million include export sales, principally to Europe, the Middle East, and Far East, of $2,380 million, $2,756 million, and $2,137 million in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Sales to major customers, principally in Electronics, in 1998, 1997, and 1996, were: U.S. government (end user), $11,167 million, $5,787 million, and $4,638 million, respectively, U.S. Department of Defense, $10,816 million, $4,591 million, and $4,032 million, respectively, and U.S. government (foreign military sales), $1,660 million, $483 million, and $502 million, respectively.

(3) Includes restructuring and special charges of $322 million after-tax, or $1.29 per diluted share. Note: Earnings per share are computed independently for each of the quarters presented; therefore, the sum of the quarterly earnings per share may not equal the total computed for the year. Note O: Financial Instruments The carrying value of certain financial instruments, including cash, cash equivalents, and short-term debt approximates estimated fair value due to their short maturities and varying interest rates of the debt. The carrying value of notes receivable approximates estimated fair value based principally on the underlying interest rates and terms, maturities, collateral, and credit status of the receivables. The carrying values of investments are based on quoted market prices or the present value of future cash flows and earnings which approximate estimated fair value. The value of guarantees and letters of credit approximates estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of long-term debt was based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt with the same remaining maturities and approximates the carrying value. 48 At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had outstanding interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency forward exchange contracts which minimized or eliminated risk associated with interest rate changes or foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. All of these financial instruments were related to specific transactions and particular assets or liabilities for which a firm commitment existed. These instruments were executed with credit-worthy institutions and the majority of the foreign currencies were denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. The following table summarizes major currencies and the approximate contract amounts associated with foreign exchange contracts at December 31: (In millions) 1998 1997 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buy Sell Buy Sell British Pounds $138 $100 $ 70 $ 27 Netherlands Guilders 41 89 45 -- German Marks 40 27 71 19 Canadian Dollars 20 50 13 66 Swiss Francs 12 85 -- 8 Norwegian Kroner 100 -- -- -- All other 49 25 57 49 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total $400 $376 $256 $169 =============================================================================== "Buy" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to purchase foreign currencies and "sell" amounts represent the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to sell foreign currencies. Foreign exchange contracts that do not involve U.S. dollars have been converted to U.S. dollars for disclosure purposes. Swap contracts were $383 million and $386 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Swap contracts mature at various dates through the year 2000 and essentially fix the interest rates on a portion of variable rate debt. Under these agreements, the Company will pay the counterparties interest at a weighted average fixed rate of 6.5%, and the counterparties will pay the Company at a variable rate primarily equal to three-month LIBOR. The weighted average variable rate applicable to these agreements was 5.2% at December 31, 1998. Foreign exchange forward contracts, used primarily to minimize fluctuations in the values of foreign currency payments and receipts, have maturities at various dates through June 2003. Estimated fair values for these contracts, which approximate the contract amounts, were determined by applying December 31, 1998 spot rates to the six major currencies and comparing the U.S. dollar equivalents to the U.S. dollar contract amounts for the same currencies. 49 Note P: Stockholders' Equity The Company has two classes of common stock-Class A and Class B. For all matters other than the election and removal of directors, Class A and Class B stockholders have equal voting rights. For the election or removal of directors only, the Class A stockholders have 80.1 percent of the total voting power and the Class B stockholders have the remaining 19.9 percent. Class A and Class B stockholders are entitled to receive the same amount per share of any dividends declared. Immediately following any dividend, split, subdivision, or other distribution of shares of Class A or Class B common stock, the number of shares must bear the same relationship to each other as immediately prior to such distribution. Except as indicated above, the rights of Class A and Class B stockholders are identical. In December 1997, the Company issued 102.6 million shares of Class A common stock and converted each share of Raytheon common stock into one share of Class B common stock in connection with its merger with Hughes Defense. The Company has agreed with the former parent of Hughes Defense that it will not propose a plan of recapitalization or certain other equity transactions that would adversely affect the tax free status of the merger. In December 1997, the Company retired 71.1 million shares of Class B common stock previously held in treasury. Prior to this retirement, the excess of cost over par value of treasury stock was charged proportionally to additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. In February 1995, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 12 million shares of the Company's common stock and in January 1998, the Board of Directors ratified and reauthorized the repurchase of the remaining 2.5 million shares originally authorized. There have been 11 million shares purchased under these authorizations through December 31, 1998. There were 1.7 million shares repurchased under this program during 1998. In January 1998, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 5 million shares of the Company's common stock per year to counter the dilution due to the exercise of stock options. There were 2.9 million shares repurchased under this program during 1998 to offset 2.9 million shares issued due to the exercise of stock options. In November 1992, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 4 million shares of the Company's common stock per year over the next five years to counter the dilution due to the exercise of stock options. During 1997, outstanding shares were reduced by the repurchase of 1.7 million shares on the open market to offset 1.7 million shares issued due to the exercise of stock options. Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Class A and B common stock have been aggregated in the basic and diluted EPS calculation which follows: 50 1998 1997 1996 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income for basic and diluted EPS $ 864 $ 527 $ 761 Share information (in thousands) Average common shares outstanding for basic EPS 337,882 238,915 236,600 Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock 3,979 2,971 3,565 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shares for diluted EPS 341,861 241,886 240,165 Basic EPS $ 2.56 $ 2.20 $ 3.22 Diluted EPS $ 2.53 $ 2.18 $ 3.17 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stock options to purchase 6.7 million, 8.2 million, and 3.7 million shares of common stock outstanding at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the stock options' exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock during the year. Company Responsibility for Financial Statements The financial statements and related information contained in this Annual Report have been prepared by and are the responsibility of Raytheon's management. The Company's financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect judgments and estimates as to the expected effects of transactions and events currently being reported. Raytheon's management is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of the financial statements and other financial information included in this report. To meet this responsibility, the Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are properly executed and recorded. The system includes policies and procedures, internal audits, and Company officers' reviews. /s/ Peter R. D'Angelo Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer /s/ Daniel P. Burnham President and Chief Executive Officer 51 The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is composed solely of outside directors. The Committee meets periodically and, when appropriate, separately with representatives of the independent accountants, Company officers, and the internal auditors to monitor the activities of each. Upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent accountants, were selected by the Board of Directors to audit the Company's financial statements and their report follows. /s/ Dennis J. Picard Chairman of the Board of Directors Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Raytheon Company In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, of stockholders' equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raytheon Company at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. /s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Boston, Massachusetts January 26, 1999
