                                PROXY STATEMENT

       This Proxy Statement contains information relating to the solicitation of
proxies by the Board of Directors of AutoNation, Inc., for use at our 2002
Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Our annual meeting will be held at the Parker
Playhouse, 707 N.E. 8th Street, Fort Lauderdale, Florida on Thursday, May 16,
2002 at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time.

       This Proxy Statement, the Notice of the 2002 Annual Meeting, the proxy
card and our 2001 Annual Report to Stockholders were mailed to stockholders on
or about April 12, 2002.

                 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR ANNUAL MEETING

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF OUR ANNUAL MEETING?

       The purpose of our annual meeting is to:

                      -   elect twelve Directors, each for a term expiring at
                          the next annual meeting or until their successors are
                          duly elected and qualified;
                      -   consider and vote upon the approval of the AutoNation,
                          Inc. Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan; and
                      -   consider any other matters properly presented at the
                          meeting.

       In addition, senior management will report on our business and financial
       performance and respond to your questions.

WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?

       Only our stockholders as of 5:00 p.m. on March 25, 2002, the record date,
       are entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and to vote at the
       meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting.

WHAT ARE THE VOTING RIGHTS OF AUTONATION STOCKHOLDERS?

       Each stockholder is entitled to one vote on each matter properly
       presented at the annual meeting for each share of common stock owned by
       that stockholder on the record date. Therefore, if you owned 100 shares
       of common stock as of 5:00 p.m. on March 25, 2002, you can cast 100 votes
       for each matter properly presented at the annual meeting. As of 5:00 p.m.
       on March 25, 2002, there were 321,199,684 shares of AutoNation common
       stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting.

WHAT CONSTITUTES A QUORUM?

       In order for us to conduct business at our annual meeting, we must have a
       quorum of at least 160,599,843 shares of common stock represented at the
       meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote. If you submit a
       properly executed proxy or vote instruction card or properly cast your
       vote by telephone or via the Internet, your shares will be considered
       part of the quorum, even if you abstain from voting or withhold authority
       to vote as to a particular proposal. We will also consider as present for
       purposes of determining whether a quorum exists any shares represented by
       "broker non-votes" as to a particular proposal.


WHAT ARE "BROKER NON-VOTES"?

       "Broker non-votes" occur when shares held by a brokerage firm are not
       voted with respect to a proposal because the firm has not received voting
       instructions from the stockholder and the firm does not have the
       authority to vote the shares at its discretion. Under the rules of The
       New York Stock Exchange, brokerage firms have the authority to vote their
       customers' unvoted shares on certain routine matters, including the
       uncontested election of directors and the approval of certain management
       compensation plans. If, as we presently anticipate, the agenda for our
       meeting will provide only for votes for the election of our Board's
       nominees for Director and approval of the AutoNation, Inc. Senior
       Executive Incentive Bonus Plan, brokerage firms will have the authority
       to vote all shares of our stock that they hold, even if they do not
       receive specific voting instructions from their customers. However, if
       other matters are properly brought before the meeting and they are not
       considered routine under the applicable New York Stock Exchange rules,
       shares held by brokerage firms will not be voted on such non-routine
       matters by the brokerage firms unless they have received voting
       instructions and, accordingly, any such shares will be "broker non-votes"
       and will not be counted with respect to such matters.

WILL MY SHARES BE VOTED IF I DO NOT PROVIDE MY PROXY?

       If your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, they may be
       voted by the brokerage firm (as described above) even if you do not give
       the brokerage firm specific voting instructions. If you are a registered
       stockholder and hold your shares directly in your own name, your shares
       will not be voted unless you provide a proxy or fill out a written ballot
       in person at the meeting.

HOW DO I VOTE?

       You can vote in any of the following ways. Please check your proxy card
       or contact your broker to determine whether you will be able to vote by
       telephone or via the Internet.

                          your vote instruction card if your shares are held in

                          broker); and

                          the shares that are held for your benefit, attach it
                          to your completed proxy card and deliver it in person.

                                        2


HOW DO I VOTE MY 401(K) SHARES?

       If you participate in the AutoNation 401(k) Plan, you may vote the number
       of shares credited to your account as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March
       25, 2002, by instructing our plan trustee, Merrill Lynch & Co., how to
       vote your shares pursuant to the instruction card being mailed with this
       proxy statement to plan participants. If you do not provide clear voting
       instructions, Merrill Lynch will vote the shares in your account in
       proportion to the way that other plan participants voted their shares.

CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I HAVE VOTED?

       Yes. If you voted by proxy card, vote instruction card or telephone or
       via the Internet, you can change your vote at any time before the proxy
       is exercised. To change your vote:

                      -   Submit a later dated and signed proxy by mail;
                      -   Recast your vote by telephone or via the Internet;
                      -   Attend our annual meeting and vote your shares in
                          person in accordance with the procedures set forth in
                          the answer to "How do I vote?" above. The powers of
                          the proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the
                          meeting in person and so request, although attendance
                          at the meeting will not by itself revoke a previously
                          granted proxy; or
                      -   Submit a written notice of revocation to our
                          Secretary.

WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO ELECT DIRECTORS OR TAKE OTHER ACTION AT THE ANNUAL
MEETING?

       In order to be approved, any proposal that comes before the meeting must
       receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and
       entitled to vote at the meeting with respect to such proposal. If you
       mark your proxy or vote instruction card "withhold" with respect to any
       Director or "abstain" with respect to any other proposal, you will
       effectively be voting against the election of such Director or the
       approval of such proposal. If your shares are not voted by your brokerage
       firm or nominee with respect to a particular proposal, or if you direct
       your proxy holder not to vote all or a portion of your shares with
       respect to a particular proposal, such shares will not be considered to
       be present at the meeting for purposes of considering such proposal and
       will not be counted.

HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND I VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS?

       The Board recommends that you vote:

                      -   FOR each of the nominees for Director set forth on
                          page 5; and

                      -   FOR the approval of the AutoNation, Inc. Senior
                          Executive Incentive Bonus Plan.

HOW WILL MY PROXY HOLDERS VOTE?

       The enclosed proxy card designates Mike Jackson, our Chief Executive
       Officer, and Jonathan P. Ferrando, our Senior Vice President, General
       Counsel & Secretary, or their duly named successors, to hold your proxy
       and vote your shares. With respect to the election of Directors and the
       approval of the AutoNation, Inc. Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan,
       Messrs. Jackson and Ferrando will vote in accordance with the
       instructions set forth on your duly executed proxy or vote instruction
       card or as directed by you over the telephone or via the Internet. If you
       sign and return your proxy card but do not provide instructions or if
       your instructions are unclear, Messrs. Jackson and Ferrando intend to
       vote FOR each of the nominees for Director and FOR the approval of the
       AutoNation, Inc. Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan.

       With respect to any other proposal that properly comes before the
       meeting, Messrs. Jackson and Ferrando will vote as recommended by our
       Board of Directors or, if no recommendation is given, in their own
       discretion.

                                        3


HOW MUCH DID THIS PROXY SOLICITATION COST?

       We engaged Innisfree M&A Incorporated to assist with the solicitation of
       proxies for a fee not to exceed $8,500, plus reimbursement for
       out-of-pocket expenses. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail,
       certain of our employees may also solicit proxies personally, by
       telephone or otherwise, but such persons will not receive any special
       compensation for such services. As is customary, we will reimburse
       brokerage firms, banks, fiduciaries, voting trustees and other nominees
       for forwarding the soliciting material to each beneficial owner of stock
       held of record by them. We will pay the entire cost of the solicitation.

CAN I RECEIVE MATERIALS RELATING TO FUTURE AUTONATION ANNUAL MEETINGS VIA THE
INTERNET?

       Yes. In an effort to reduce our proxy solicitation costs, we intend to
       make it possible for you to receive future annual meeting materials via
       the Internet. We encourage you to help us reduce our costs by electing to
       receive our annual meeting materials via the Internet. If you are a
       registered stockholder, log on to
       www.computershare.com/consent/autonation in order to register to receive
       our annual meeting materials via the Internet. If you hold AutoNation
       stock through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you may be able to
       register to receive future annual meeting materials via the Internet by
       voting online and following the instructions provided. Alternatively, you
       should call your broker for instructions on how to receive our future
       annual meeting materials via the Internet.

       If you elect to receive our future annual meeting materials via the
       Internet, you will receive a proxy card in the mail or, if you choose, an
       e-mail notification alerting you when our annual meeting materials are
       available online. Our future proxy statements and annual reports will be
       available online on the same day as such materials are filed with the
       Securities and Exchange Commission. You may revoke at any time your
       election to receive our future annual meeting materials via the Internet.

       This Proxy Statement and our 2001 Annual Report to Stockholders also are
       available on AutoNation's corporate website, which you can visit by
       logging on to www.autonation.com.

CAN DIFFERENT STOCKHOLDERS SHARING THE SAME ADDRESS RECEIVE ONLY ONE ANNUAL
REPORT AND PROXY STATEMENT?

       Yes. The Securities and Exchange Commission recently adopted new rules
       that permit companies and intermediaries, such as a brokerage firm or a
       bank, to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and
       annual reports with respect to two or more security holders sharing the
       same address by delivering only one proxy statement and annual report to
       that address. This process, which is commonly referred to as
       "householding," can effectively reduce our printing and postage costs.
       Under householding, each stockholder would continue to receive a separate
       proxy card or vote instruction card.

       Certain of our stockholders whose shares are held in street name and who
       have consented to householding will receive only one set of our annual
       meeting materials per household this year. If your household received a
       single set of our annual meeting materials this year, you can request to
       receive additional copies of these materials by calling or writing your
       brokerage firm, bank or other nominee. If you own your shares in street
       name, you can request householding by calling or writing your brokerage
       firm, bank or other nominee.

                                   PROPOSAL 2

     APPROVAL OF THE AUTONATION, INC. SENIOR EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE BONUS PLAN

       Our Board of Directors recently approved a new performance-based bonus
plan for our executive officers and other key employees, subject to the
requisite approval by our stockholders. The purpose of the AutoNation, Inc.
Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan (the "Plan") is to better align the
interests of our management with the interests of our stockholders by
encouraging management to achieve goals designed to increase stockholder value.
The full text of the Plan is set forth as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement, and
you should refer to it for a complete description of the Plan. The following
summary of the key terms of the Plan is qualified by reference to the Plan.

       If the requisite stockholder approval is obtained, the Plan would be
effective as of January 1, 2002 and would supersede the 1999 Senior Executive
Bonus Plan that was approved by our Board and our stockholders in 1999.

       Intended Tax Treatment of Awards under the Plan.  The Plan is designed to
provide for the payment of performance-based compensation that is qualified
within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and related
Internal Revenue Service regulations and that we may deduct for tax purposes.
Section 162(m) requires that certain material terms of a compensation plan,
including participant eligibility, the business criteria on which performance
goals are based and maximum award amounts, be approved by a company's
stockholders in order for compensation paid thereunder to be tax deductible.
Accordingly, we are submitting the Plan for the requisite approval by our
stockholders.

       Administration of the Plan.  The Compensation and Nominating Committee of
our Board, or such other committee or subcommittee as may be designated by our
Board, will administer the Plan (the "Committee"). The Committee shall be
comprised of two or more "outside directors" within the meaning of Section
162(m).

       Selection of Participants.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall
determine which of our executive officers or other key employees shall
participate in the Plan in any particular year. An executive officer or key
employee who is a participant for a given plan year is not guaranteed or assured
of being selected for participation in any subsequent plan year.

       Establishment of Performance Targets.  The Committee is responsible for
identifying annual "performance factors" and establishing specific performance
targets with respect thereto that must be met in order for annual bonuses to be
paid under the Plan. The Committee has the sole discretion to determine whether,
or to what extent, the established performance targets are achieved. The
performance targets may be based upon any or all of the following performance
factors or any combination thereof: (i) net income (before or after taxes); (ii)
operating income; (iii) gross margin; (iv) earnings before all or any of
interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization; (v) revenue; (vi) unit sales;
(vii) cash flow; (viii) return on equity; (ix) return on assets; (x) return on
capital; (xi) asset management (e.g., inventory and receivable levels); (xii)
earnings from continuing operations; (xiii) cost reduction goals or levels of
expenses, costs or liabilities; (xiv) market share; and (xv) customer
satisfaction.

       The performance targets must be established while the performance
relative to the established target remains substantially uncertain within the
meaning of Section 162(m). Concurrently with the selection of performance
factors and the establishment of targets relating thereto, the Committee must
establish an objective formula or standard for calculating the maximum bonus
payable to each participant. Subject to the discretion of the Committee, the
performance measurement periods are typically the one-year periods commencing on
January 1, 2002.

       As provided in the definition of "Performance Factors" in Section 2 of
the Plan, the Committee has the authority to make appropriate adjustments in
performance targets under an award to reflect the impact of extraordinary items
not reflected in such targets, such as the effect of: (1) acquisitions or
divestitures; (2) changes in accounting principles or policies; (3)
restructuring charges; (4) extraordinary or one-time gains, losses or expenses;
(5) discontinued operations; (6) capital expenditures; and (7) share repurchases
and other capitalization changes.

       Awards Under the Plan.  Awards under the Plan will be payable in cash,
unless otherwise determined by the Committee. Under the Plan, the maximum cash
bonus for each fiscal year may not exceed $5 million for any particular
participant. Notwithstanding this maximum, and even if the Performance Factors
are met, the Committee has sole

                                        6


discretion, pursuant to the exercise of its "negative discretion," to decrease
the amount of any award payable or to pay no award at all. In no event may the
Committee increase at its discretion the amount of an award payable upon
attainment of the Performance Factors. Payment of any bonus under the Plan may
be deferred, subject to the Plan's terms and any other written commitment
authorized by the Committee.

       Amendment of the Plan.  The Plan may from time to time be altered,
amended, suspended or terminated, in whole or in part, by our Board of Directors
or the Committee, but no amendment will be effective without the requisite
stockholder approval if such approval is required to satisfy the requirements of
Section 162(m).

       Other Compensation.  The Plan is not exclusive. We may and do pay cash
and other bonuses and other compensation to certain named executive officers and
other officers. You are not being asked at the meeting to approve any such other
compensation. If the Plan is not approved by the requisite vote of our
stockholders, we currently contemplate that any cash bonuses for fiscal year
2002 for our named executive officers would be discretionary. Any such bonuses
would not be deductible under Section 162(m) to the extent that (when combined
with other non-exempt compensation paid with respect to 2002) they exceed the $1
million individual limit on non-exempt compensation paid to named executive
officers under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

 OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL OF THE
            AUTONATION, INC. SENIOR EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE BONUS PLAN.

             STATEMENT REGARDING OUR INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT

       Arthur Andersen LLP served as our independent public accountant for the
year ended December 31, 2001. Although we have been satisfied with Arthur
Andersen LLP's service as our independent public accountant, in light of recent
well-publicized events involving Arthur Andersen LLP, our Board of Directors and
Audit Committee have directed us to evaluate alternatives for engaging an
independent public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002.
Accordingly, we recently commenced a process to seek proposals from other audit
firms to become our independent public accountant for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2002 in the event we determine not to retain Arthur Andersen LLP as
our independent public accountant for 2002. As a result, as of the date of this
Proxy Statement, our Board of Directors and Audit Committee have not made a
final determination as to the appointment of an independent public accountant to
audit our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2002.
Accordingly, our stockholders are not being asked to ratify the selection of an
independent public accountant at this time. We presently expect that we will ask
our stockholders at our 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to ratify our
appointment of an independent public accountant to audit our financial
statements for the year ending December 31, 2003.

       A representative of Arthur Andersen LLP is expected to attend the annual
meeting and be available to respond to appropriate questions. The representative
also will be afforded an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to
do so.

                                BOARD GOVERNANCE

       Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of
Directors. Our Board establishes our overall corporate policies and reviews the
performance of our management in executing our business strategy and managing
our day-to-day operations. Our Directors are informed of our operations at
meetings of our Board and our Board's Committees, through reports and analyses
presented to our Board and our Board's Committees, and by discussions with our
management. Significant communications between our Directors and our management
also occur apart from meetings of our Board and our Board's Committees.

HOW MANY TIMES DID OUR BOARD MEET DURING 2001?

       Our Board of Directors held seven meetings during 2001 and took one
       action by unanimous written consent. During 2001, each of our Directors
       attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of our Board of
       Directors and any Committees on which he or she served, except for Harris
       W. Hudson, who attended five of our Board's seven meetings during the

WHAT COMMITTEES HAS OUR BOARD ESTABLISHED?

       Our Board of Directors has established two standing Committees to assist
       it in discharging its responsibilities: our Audit Committee and our
       Compensation and Nominating Committee. In January 2002, our Board
       dissolved our Executive Committee, which had formerly consisted of
       Messrs. Huizenga, Jackson and Hudson, and generally retained for the full
       Board the powers that had previously been delegated to the Executive
       Committee. The following chart reflects the membership of each Committee

       Audit Committee.  Our Audit Committee is responsible for assisting our
       Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing our
       financial reporting and audit processes, system of internal controls and
       ethical behavior. Please refer to our Audit Committee's Report, which is
       set forth on page 12, for a further description of our Audit Committee's
       responsibilities and its recommendation with respect to our audited
       consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001.
       Our Audit Committee consists of five Directors. Based upon the rules
       adopted by The New York Stock Exchange and the standards set forth in our
       Audit Committee charter, our Board has determined that each member of our
       Audit Committee meets all requisite qualifications to be a member of the
       Committee. Our Audit Committee held nine meetings during 2001.

       Compensation and Nominating Committee.  Our Compensation and Nominating
       Committee sets our compensation philosophy and is responsible for
       administering our compensation programs, including approving base
       salaries and incentive compensation for our officers and stock option
       grants pursuant to our stock option plans. Our Compensation and
       Nominating Committee also identifies, evaluates and recommends to our
       Board candidates for nomination and election to our Board of Directors
       and for appointment to the Committees of our Board. Our Compensation and
       Nominating Committee consists of four Directors who have never been
       employees of AutoNation and who are not eligible to participate in any of
       the Compensation and Nominating Committee-administered compensation
       programs or plans. Our Compensation and Nominating Committee held six
       meetings during 2001 and took one action by unanimous written consent.
       Our Compensation and Nominating Committee's Report on Executive
       Compensation is set forth on pages 14 and 15.

HOW ARE OUR DIRECTORS COMPENSATED?

       In 2001, we paid each of our non-employee Directors, other than Mr.
       DeGroote, an annual fee for service on our Board of Directors of $25,000
       plus $1,000 for each Board meeting attended in excess of four annually
       and for each Committee meeting attended. Our Directors also are entitled
       to the use of a company vehicle in accordance with our Director Car
       Policy and expense reimbursement in connection with Board and Committee
       meeting attendance. Imputed income from the use of company vehicles by
       our Directors under our Director Car Policy averaged approximately
       $16,170 during 2001 for each of our Directors who used a company car
       during 2001. Mr. DeGroote does not accept the annual Director fee and he
       does not use a company vehicle under our Director Car Policy.

       We want our outside Directors' compensation to be aligned with your
       interests as stockholders. Accordingly, our 1995 Amended and Restated
       Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan currently provides for an initial
       grant of options to purchase 50,000 shares of our stock immediately upon
       the appointment of a non-employee Director to our Board. This plan also
       provides for an annual grant of options to purchase 20,000 shares of our
       stock at the beginning of each fiscal year to each non-employee Director
       serving on the Board at such date. Unless otherwise provided, all options
       granted under this plan are fully vested and immediately exercisable.
       Under this plan, each grant of options to a non-employee Director remains
       exercisable for a term of ten years from the grant date so long as the
       Director remains a member of the Board. The options are exercisable at a
       price per share equal to the closing price per share of our stock on The
       New York Stock Exchange on the date immediately prior to the grant date.
       In accordance with the plan, on January 2, 2002, Messrs. Brown, Bryan,
       Burdick, DeGroote, Hudson, Johnson and Melk and Ms. Rosenfeld each
       received an automatic grant of options to purchase 20,000 shares of our
       stock at an exercise price of $12.33 per share. Upon their appointment to
       our Board of Directors on January 29, 2002, Messrs. Crowley and Lampert

                             AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

                The following statement made by our Audit Committee does
       not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed
       or incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities
       Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
       as amended, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate
       such statement by reference.

       During 2001, the Audit Committee consisted of Irene B. Rosenfeld (Chair),
J. P. Bryan, Rick L. Burdick and John J. Melk. William C. Crowley was appointed
to the Audit Committee and joined Ms. Rosenfeld and Messrs. Bryan, Burdick and
Melk as members of the Audit Committee on January 29, 2002. A written charter
adopted by the Board of Directors governs the Audit Committee.

       Our primary function is to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight
responsibilities by reviewing AutoNation's financial reporting and audit
processes, system of internal controls and ethical behavior. Management is
responsible for the company's financial statements and the financial reporting
process, including the system of internal controls. We also monitor the
preparation by management of the company's quarterly and annual financial
statements. AutoNation's independent auditor, who we recommend to the Board, is
responsible for expressing an opinion as to whether the consolidated financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of AutoNation in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States. We also are responsible for
reviewing the scope of audit services in conjunction with management and the
auditor and discussing with the auditor any relationships or services that may
impact the objectivity and independence of the auditor.

       In fulfilling our oversight role, we met and held discussions with the
company's management and auditor. Management advised us that the company's
consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and we reviewed and discussed the consolidated
financial statements and key accounting and reporting issues with management and
the auditor. We discussed privately with the auditor matters deemed significant
by the auditor, including those matters required to be discussed pursuant to
Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees), as
amended.

       The auditor also provided us with the written disclosures and the letter
required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence
Discussions with Audit Committees), and we discussed with the auditor matters
relating to their independence and considered whether their provision of
non-audit services is compatible with their independence.

       Based on our review with management and the auditor of AutoNation's
audited consolidated financial statements and the auditor's report on such
financial statements, and based on the discussions and written disclosures
described above and our business judgment, we recommended to the Board of
Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in
AutoNation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                          Audit Committee:

                                          Irene B. Rosenfeld (Chair)

                                                             ==========


       During fiscal 2001, we hired Arthur Andersen LLP to perform certain audit
and other services. The audit-related services referenced in the table above
include services performed in connection with certain securities offerings
completed during 2001, including our offering of senior unsecured notes in
August 2001. Other services included tax consulting, tax compliance services and
employee benefit plan audits. In these situations, our Audit Committee and our
management considered whether Arthur Andersen LLP could provide the necessary
services without effect on its independence.

                             EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

     COMPENSATION AND NOMINATING COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

                The following statement made by our Compensation and
       Nominating Committee does not constitute soliciting material and
       should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any
       filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
       Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent
       that we specifically incorporate such statement by reference.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

       The company's executive compensation program consists of three primary
elements:

                      -   an annual base salary;
                      -   a performance-based annual bonus; and
                      -   periodic grants of stock options designed to align the
                          executive officer's interest with the interests of the
                          company's stockholders.

       The compensation program for executive officers is designed to attract,
motivate, reward and retain highly-skilled executives who have the talent and
experience necessary to advance the company's short- and long-term interests. We
believe that this approach effectively serves AutoNation's stockholders' best
interests by tying a significant portion of incentive compensation to the
achievement of goals that are aligned with your goals. The executive officer
compensation program in 2001 was based in part on a competitive market analysis
conducted by independent compensation consultants.

       We consider the anticipated tax treatment of various payments and
benefits when determining executive compensation and administer the executive
compensation program in a manner that maximizes the tax deductibility of
compensation paid to the company's executives under Internal Revenue Code
Section 162(m) to the extent practicable. We believe, however, that the
company's priority is to attract and retain highly-skilled executives to manage
the company and, in some cases, the loss of a tax deduction may be necessary to
accomplish that goal.

       The following is a summary of the considerations underlying each
component of compensation paid to AutoNation's executive officers for 2001.

BASE SALARY

       We approve and recommend to the Board of Directors base salaries for the
company's executive officers annually and consider such factors as: the level
and scope of our executive officer's responsibilities; compensation levels of
similarly positioned executives in comparable companies, as reflected in a
market analysis conducted by independent compensation consultants; the
performance of our particular business area or function for which the executive
officer is responsible; and certain qualitative factors reflecting the
individual performance of the executive officers. Our Compensation and
Nominating Committee attempts to set the annual base salary for each of our
executive officers at a level competitive with such salaries at comparable
companies to attract and retain a high quality management team. We believe that
the executive officers' base salaries for 2001 were set in accordance with this
policy.

INCENTIVE BONUS

       In 1999, we adopted, and the company's stockholders approved, the 1999
Senior Executive Bonus Plan, which provides for a performance-based bonus
program for executives who are designated as "covered employees" under Section
162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

       Under the terms of the 1999 Senior Executive Bonus Plan, we established
specific annual performance goals and set target awards for participants, each
of whom was selected based on the likelihood that he or she would have a

                                        14


significant impact on our performance. Our objective was to create a direct link
between pay and performance for our senior executives. Participants selected
with respect to one particular plan year were not guaranteed or assured of
selection as to any subsequent year. We chose from any one or more of the
following factors to set the performance goals applicable to a particular
participant: (a) annual revenue; (b) controllable profits; (c) earnings per
share; (d) customer satisfaction indices; (e) net income; (f) pro forma net
income; (g) return on assets; and (h) return on sales. These performance goals
were established while actual performance relative to the target remained
substantially uncertain within the meaning of Section 162(m). At the time that
the performance goals were selected for a particular participant, we also
established an objective formula or standard for calculating the amount of the
target award. The maximum annual target award payable to any particular
participant under the plan was $2 million. We had absolute "negative discretion"
to eliminate or reduce the amount of any award under the plan. For 2001, we
established performance goals under the plan based upon the achievement of a
specified level of earnings per share for the company. After the end of the
year, we determined that the performance goal for 2001 had been achieved under
the Plan and we made awards to participants in the Plan, subject to the exercise
of negative discretion.

       We also award annual performance-based incentive bonuses to other senior
officers. For 2001, we based the amount and conditions of such bonuses primarily
on the company's financial performance for the year and, to a lesser degree, the
individual performance of the senior officer during the year.

STOCK OPTIONS

       We believe that awarding stock options to our executive officers will
motivate them to focus on the company's long-term performance. Under the
company's stock option guidelines, stock option grants are generally made on an
annual basis in competitive amounts. Stock option grants are also made to
executive officers upon commencing service to the company or entering into an
employment agreement with the company, subject to Compensation and Nominating
Committee approval. Accordingly, in 2001 we approved the grant of stock option
awards to each executive officer. Stock options generally vest in equal
installments over four years and have an exercise price equal to the closing
price of AutoNation common stock on the last trading day immediately preceding
the grant.

COMPENSATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

       Our Board granted a salary adjustment for Mr. Jackson as our Chief
Executive Officer in January 2001, increasing his annual base salary to
$1,150,000. Mr. Jackson's base salary was based upon his performance and an
assessment of competitive market data of comparable companies, as described
above. In addition to his annual base salary, as described above, Mr. Jackson
was awarded a $758,331 bonus for 2001 under the 1999 Senior Executive Bonus
Plan. Receipt of $189,581 of Mr. Jackson's bonus will be deferred until February
28, 2004, subject to certain terms and conditions, including his continued
service to AutoNation until February 28, 2004 (unless Mr. Jackson's employment
is terminated by reason of death or disability, by the company "without cause"
or by Mr. Jackson for "good reason" as provided in the deferral agreement). In
July 2001, we approved an annual grant to Mr. Jackson of options to purchase
500,000 shares of stock exercisable at $11.05 per share. The options have a
ten-year term, vest over four years and are not presently exercisable.

       We believe that tying a large part of our Chief Executive Officer's
compensation to the performance of the company's stock improves the company's
long-term performance by providing Mr. Jackson the incentive to grow the
company's stock price and make AutoNation more profitable in future years. We
believe that Mr. Jackson's compensation, as described above, is fair for his
services as our Chief Executive Officer.

                                          J.P. Bryan (Chair)

                               PERFORMANCE GRAPH

       The following graph and table compare the cumulative total stockholder
return on our common stock from December 31, 1996 through December 31, 2001 with
the performance of: (i) the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and (ii) the
Standard & Poor's Retail (Specialty) Index. We have created these comparisons
using data supplied by Research Data Group, Inc. The comparisons reflected in
the graph and table are not intended to forecast the future performance of our
stock and may not be indicative of future performance. The graph and table
assume investments of $100 in our stock and each index on December 31, 1996, as
well as reinvestment of dividends. The distribution we made to our stockholders
on June 30, 2000 in connection with the tax-free spin-off to our stockholders of
ANC Rental Corporation is reflected in the graph and table as a reinvestment of
a cash dividend in the amount of $.69. The spin-off was completed by issuing to
each AutoNation stockholder of record as of June 16, 2000 one share of ANC
Rental common stock for each eight shares of AutoNation common stock held by
such stockholder.

   COMPENSATION AND NOMINATING COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

       Messrs. Bryan and Johnson and Ms. Rosenfeld served as members of our
Compensation and Nominating Committee in 2001. Mr. Johnson has served as the
President and Chief Executive Officer of Extended Stay America, and Mr. Huizenga
has served as the Chairman of the Board of Extended Stay America, since January
1995.

                             EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

       We have entered into employment agreements with Mike Jackson, Michael E.
Maroone and Craig T. Monaghan. Summaries of these employment agreements and
other employment arrangements are set forth below.

       Mike Jackson.  In September 1999, we entered into an employment agreement
with Mr. Jackson pursuant to which he serves as our Chief Executive Officer. The
agreement, which expires September 24, 2002 (subject to earlier termination),
provided for an initial base salary of $1,000,000 per year, subject to future
increases as determined by our Compensation and Nominating Committee. In January
2001, our Compensation and Nominating Committee approved an increase in Mr.
Jackson's base salary to $1,150,000 per year. Mr. Jackson's employment agreement
also provides for his participation in the 1999 Senior Executive Bonus Plan,
with bonus eligibility and performance objectives as established by the
Compensation and Nominating Committee during the first quarter of each year.
Receipt of a portion of the bonus award payable to Mr. Jackson for 2001 under
the 1999 Senior Executive Bonus Plan was deferred until February 28, 2004,
subject to certain terms and conditions. Upon the commencement of Mr. Jackson's
employment, we granted to Mr. Jackson a sign-on bonus in the amount of $250,000
and stock options with respect to a total of 1,107,843 shares of our common
stock (adjusted to reflect the tax-free spin-off to our stockholders of ANC
Rental). All of these options vest in four equal annual installments commencing
on September 24, 2000 and have an exercise price equal to $10.61 per share and a
term expiring on September 24, 2009 (subject to earlier termination in
accordance with the applicable stock option plan and agreement). Mr. Jackson has
participated in our stock option program in each year since the commencement of
his employment and will continue to participate in this program in future years
at the discretion of our Compensation and Nominating Committee. Under the terms
of the agreement, if we terminate Mr. Jackson's employment for any reason other
than "cause," he is entitled to receive his annual base salary until September
24, 2002, as well as the pro rata portion of his annual performance bonus
applicable to the period prior to the termination of his employment.
Additionally, if we terminate Mr. Jackson's employment without "cause," all
stock options held by him will continue to vest during the 12-month period
immediately following such termination, and he shall have an additional
two-month period from the end of such 12-month period to exercise any vested
options. The agreement also provides that Mr. Jackson is entitled to certain
benefits during his employment, including limited personal use of our corporate
aircraft.

       Michael E. Maroone.  On August 1, 2000, we entered into an employment
agreement with Michael E. Maroone that provides for him to serve as our
President and Chief Operating Officer. The term of the employment agreement ends
on December 31, 2003. Our agreement with Mr. Maroone provided for an initial
base salary of $850,000 per year, subject to future increases as determined by
our Compensation and Nominating Committee. In January 2001, our Compensation and
Nominating Committee approved an increase in Mr. Maroone's base salary to
$900,000 per year. The employment agreement also provides for Mr. Maroone's
participation in the 1999 Senior Executive Bonus Plan, with bonus eligibility
and performance objectives as established by the Compensation and Nominating
Committee during the first quarter of each year. Upon the execution of his
employment agreement, on August 1, 2000, we granted him options to purchase
350,000 shares of our stock. All of these options vest in four equal annual
installments commencing on August 1, 2001 and have an exercise price equal to
$6.875 per share and a term expiring on August 1, 2010 (subject to earlier
termination in accordance with the applicable stock option plan and agreement).
Mr. Maroone has participated in our stock option program in each year since the
commencement of his employment and will continue to participate in this program
in future years at the discretion of our Compensation and Nominating Committee.
Under the terms of the agreement, if Mr. Maroone's employment is terminated by
us for any reason other than "cause," or if he terminates his employment with us
for "good reason" (each as defined in the employment agreement), he is entitled
to receive the greater of one year's base salary and his then-current base
salary for the remainder of his employment term. In such circumstances, Mr.
Maroone would also be entitled to receive the pro rata portion of his annual
performance bonus

                                        19


applicable to the period prior to the termination of his employment, provided
that the applicable performance objectives are satisfied.

       Additionally, by letter to Mr. Maroone dated March 26, 1999, we confirmed
that upon the termination of Mr. Maroone's employment with us any stock options
granted to Mr. Maroone prior to March 26, 1999 would continue to vest in
accordance with their initial vesting schedule and would be exercisable through
the duration of their original ten-year terms.

       Craig T. Monaghan.  On April 19, 2000, we entered into an agreement with
Craig T. Monaghan by which he serves as our Senior Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer. Our agreement with Mr. Monaghan provided for Mr. Monaghan's
employment with us at an initial base salary of $450,000 per year. In January
2001, our Compensation and Nominating Committee approved an increase in Mr.
Monaghan's base salary to $550,000 per year. The agreement also provided for an
initial annual bonus of up to 50% of Mr. Monaghan's annual salary, payable upon
the achievement of certain company performance goals. Upon the commencement of
Mr. Monaghan's employment, we granted to Mr. Monaghan a sign-on bonus in the
amount of $100,000 and options to purchase a total of 387,745 shares of our
stock (adjusted to reflect the tax-free spin-off to our stockholders of ANC
Rental). These options vest in four equal annual installments commencing on May
8, 2001 and have an exercise price equal to $8.41 per share and a term expiring
on May 8, 2010 (subject to earlier termination in accordance with the applicable
stock option plan and agreement). Mr. Monaghan has participated in our stock
option program in each year since the commencement of his employment and will
continue to participate in this program in future years at the discretion of our
Compensation and Nominating Committee. Under the terms of the agreement, if Mr.
Monaghan's employment is terminated by us for any reason other than "cause," or
if he terminates his employment with us for "good reason" (as defined in the
employment agreement), he is entitled to receive an amount equivalent to
eighteen (18) months of his initial base salary of $450,000.

                 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

       The following is a summary of agreements and transactions among certain
related parties and us. It is our policy that transactions with related parties
must be on fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to us than those
that would be available in an arm's length transaction with an unrelated party.
Based on our experience, we believe that all of the transactions described below
met that standard at the time the transactions were effected. The amounts
disclosed for the following transactions are estimates based on our records and
other information currently available to us.

       Mr. Huizenga owns the Miami Dolphins and Pro Player Stadium, a
professional sports stadium in South Florida. In 2001, we paid an aggregate of
approximately $375,000 to the Miami Dolphins and Pro Player Stadium in exchange
for certain marketing services, including the rental of the stadium for an
off-site used vehicle sale event for our dealerships, and for the use of
executive suites and tickets to events at Pro Player Stadium. We expect to
continue these relationships with the Miami Dolphins and Pro Player Stadium
during 2002.

       During 2001, we leased an executive suite at the National Car Rental
Center, a professional sports arena in Broward County, Florida that was leased
by Boca Resorts, Inc. Mr. Huizenga is the Chairman of the Board of Boca Resorts
and beneficially owns approximately 18% of Boca Resorts' outstanding stock.
Messrs. Hudson and Johnson are also directors of Boca Resorts and own
approximately 3% of Boca Resorts' outstanding common stock in the aggregate.
Under the suite lease agreement, we paid Boca Resorts approximately $128,000
during 2001, plus incidental costs. In July 2001, Boca Resorts sold the Florida
Panthers, the National Hockey League franchise that plays at the National Car
Rental Center, and transferred its interest in the arena. Boca Resorts also owns
and operates various resort hotels, including a hotel in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida, at which we have hosted from time to time meetings of our key managers.
During 2001, we paid Boca Resorts approximately $156,000 for the use of
conference facilities and lodging accommodations at its hotels in connection
with our management meetings.

       During 2001, we purchased approximately $620,000 of pre-employment drug
screening services from Psychemedics Corporation. Mr. Huizenga owns
approximately 11.1% of the outstanding common stock of Psychemedics. We expect
to continue to utilize Psychemedics to perform customary pre-employment drug
screenings in 2002.

       In connection with our spin-off of ANC Rental Corporation in June 2000,
we entered into a distribution agreement, a tax sharing agreement and various
lease agreements, transitional service agreements, purchase agreements and other
arrangements with ANC Rental. Messrs. Huizenga and Bryan are directors of ANC
Rental and several of our Directors own stock of ANC Rental. In November 2001,
ANC Rental filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code in Wilmington, Delaware. Due to the bankruptcy of ANC
Rental, some or all of its obligations under the agreements described below may
be extinguished or our claims against ANC Rental under such agreements may be
unenforceable. In May 2000, we agreed to lease certain space in our computer
data center to ANC Rental. ANC Rental paid us approximately $870,000 for such
space in 2001. In connection with the spin-off, we also agreed to provide
guarantees and credit enhancements for certain ANC Rental indebtedness and other
obligations, for which ANC Rental paid us a fee of approximately $915,000 during
2001. We expect to continue to provide certain credit support, although we do
not believe ANC Rental will pay us for our credit support during 2002 due to its
bankruptcy. We entered into agreements with ANC Rental pursuant to which it
agreed to purchase a certain number of its rental fleet vehicles through certain
of our dealerships. During 2001, ANC Rental purchased approximately 31,000
rental fleet vehicles through us under these agreements, generating a mark-up
fee for us of approximately $220,000. These agreements have expired and,
accordingly, we do not expect to sell to ANC Rental any vehicles during 2002.
ANC Rental also paid us approximately $8.1 million for parts purchases made
during 2001. In addition, we sold parts to ANC Rental for approximately $1.2
million during 2001 for which we do not expect to receive payment from ANC
Rental due to its bankruptcy. ANC Rental also leases space from certain of our
dealerships to operate its local car rental businesses. During 2001, ANC Rental
paid our dealerships an aggregate of approximately $460,000 under such leases.

       In January 2001, we sold a jet to Republic Services, Inc. for
approximately $4.7 million, which was based on its then current net asset value
plus the agreed upon value of certain repairs performed by us immediately prior
to the sale. Messrs. Huizenga and Hudson are Chairman of the Board and Vice
Chairman of the Board and Secretary, respectively, of Republic Services. We also
sublease office space at our corporate headquarters to Republic Services. During
2001, Republic Services paid us approximately $700,000 pursuant to this lease,
which expires in February 2003.

                                        24


       We lease to NationsRent, Inc. space at our computer data center for which
NationsRent paid us approximately $150,000 in 2001. Mssrs. Huizenga and Hudson
are directors of NationsRent and Mr. Hudson owns approximately 1.8% of
NationsRent's outstanding common stock. Additionally, until December 2001, Wayne
Huizenga, Jr., the son of Mr. Huizenga, owned approximately 20.9% of
NationsRent's outstanding common stock through H. Family Investments, Inc., a
Florida corporation controlled by him. In 2001, we also subleased to NationsRent
certain office space at a monthly rental rate of approximately $61,000.
NationsRent paid us approximately $732,000 pursuant to this arrangement during
2001. In January 2002, based upon prevailing market conditions, we extended the
office sublease at a monthly rental rate of approximately $52,000. In December
2001, H. Family Investments, Inc. sold all of its NationsRent common stock. In
addition, we subleased two other office space locations to NationsRent, each of
which expired in August 2001. NationsRent paid us approximately $400,000 during
2001 for this office space. In December 2001, NationsRent filed a voluntary
petition for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in
Wilmington, Delaware. Due to the bankruptcy of NationsRent, some or all of
NationsRent's obligations under the foregoing agreements may be extinguished or
our claims thereunder may be unenforceable.

       During March 2002, we sold approximately 100 fleet vehicles to AutoZone,
Inc. Mr. Lampert is a director of AutoZone and is Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer and controlling principal of ESL Investments, Inc., which together with
its affiliated investment partnerships owns approximately 24% of the outstanding
common stock of AutoZone. Mr. Crowley is the President and Chief Operating
Officer of ESL Investments. The vehicles were sold for an aggregate price of
approximately $1.2 million and a mark-up fee for us of approximately $22,000. We
expect to enter into similar fleet arrangements with AutoZone in the future.

       During 2001, we engaged the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer &
Feld, L.L.P. for various legal services. Mr. Burdick is a partner in that law
firm. We expect this relationship to continue in 2002.

                                 OTHER MATTERS

       We are not aware of any other matters that will be properly brought
before the annual meeting. However, if any additional matters are properly

5.       Terms of Awards.  Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall be
communicated to Participants in such form as the Committee shall from time to
time approve and the terms and conditions of such Awards shall be set forth
therein.

       (a)  In General.  On or prior to the date on which 25% of a Performance
Period has elapsed, the Committee shall specify in writing, by resolution of the
Committee or other appropriate action, the Participants for such Performance
Period and the Performance Factors applicable to each Award for each Participant
with respect to such Performance Period. Unless otherwise provided by the
Committee in connection with specified terminations of employment, payment in
respect of Awards shall be made only if and to the extent the Performance
Factors with respect to such Performance Period are attained.

       (b)  Special Provisions Regarding Awards.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, in no event shall payment in respect of Awards
granted hereunder exceed $5,000,000 to any one Participant in any one year. The

Committee increase at its discretion the amount of an Award payable upon
attainment of the specified Performance Factors.

       (c)  Time and Form of Payment.  Unless otherwise determined by the
Committee, all payments in respect of Awards granted under this Plan shall be
made in cash within ninety (90) days after the end of the Performance Period.

6.       Term.  Subject to the approval of the Plan by the holders of a majority
of the Common Stock represented and voting on the proposal at the annual meeting
of Company stockholders to be held in 2002 (or any adjournment thereof), the

all awards for Performance Periods ending on or before December 31, 2006 have
been paid, unless earlier terminated as provided below.

7.       General Provisions.

       (a)  Compliance with Legal Requirements.  The Plan and the granting and
payment of Awards, and the other obligations of the Company under the Plan shall
be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and
to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required.

       (b)  Nontransferability.  Awards shall not be transferable by a
Participant except upon the Participant's death following the end of the
Performance Period but prior to the date payment is made, in which case the
Award shall be transferable in accordance with any beneficiary designation made
by the Participant in accordance with Section 7(k) below or, in the absence
thereof, by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

       (c)  No Right To Continued Employment.  Nothing in the Plan or in any
Award granted pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Participant the right to
continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to be
entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or to
interfere with or limit in any way whatever rights otherwise exist of the
Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate such Participant's employment or change
such Participant's remuneration.

       (d)  Withholding Taxes.  Where a Participant or other person is entitled
to receive a payment pursuant to an Award hereunder, the Company shall have the
right either to deduct from the payment, or to require the Participant or such
other person to pay to the Company prior to delivery of such payment, an amount
sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local or other withholding tax
requirements related thereto.

       (e)  Amendment and Termination of the Plan.  The Board or the Committee
may at any time and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the
Plan in whole or in part; provided that no amendment that requires stockholder
approval in order for the Plan to continue to comply with Code Section 162(m)
shall be effective unless the same shall be approved by the requisite vote of
the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment
shall affect adversely any of the rights of any Participant under any Award
following the end of the Performance Period to which such Award relates,
provided that the exercise of the Committee's discretion pursuant to Section
5(b) to reduce the amount of an Award shall not be deemed an amendment of the
Plan.

       (f)  Participant Rights.  No Participant shall have any claim to be
granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of
treatment for Participants.

                                       A-3


       (g)  Termination of Employment.

                (i)      Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, except as
       set forth in subparagraph (ii) of this subsection (g), a Participant must
       be actively employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries at the end of the
       Performance Period (although such Participant need not be actively
       employed on the date of payment of the related Award) in order to be
       eligible to receive payment in respect of such Award.

                (ii)     Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, if a
       Participant's employment is terminated as result of death, Disability or
       voluntary retirement with the consent of the Company prior to the end of
       the Performance Period, such Participant shall receive a pro rata portion
       of the Award that he or she would have received with respect to the
       applicable Performance Period, which shall be payable at the time payment
       is made to other Participants in respect of such Performance Period.

       (h)  Unfunded Status of Awards.  The Plan is intended to constitute an
"unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any
payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained
in the Plan or any Award shall give any such Participant any rights that are
greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

       (i)  Governing Law.  The Plan and all determinations made and actions
taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware
without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

       (j)  Effective Date.  The Plan shall take effect upon its adoption by the
Board; provided, however, that the Plan shall be subject to the requisite
approval of the stockholders of the Company in order to comply with Section
162(m) of the Code. In the absence of such approval, the Plan (and any Awards
made pursuant to the Plan prior to the date of such approval) shall be null and
void.

       (k)  Beneficiary.  A Participant may file with the Committee a written
designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee
and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated
beneficiary survives the Participant and an Award is payable to the
Participant's beneficiary pursuant to Section 7(b), the executor or
administrator of the Participant's estate shall be deemed to be the grantee's
beneficiary.

       (l)  Interpretation.  The Plan is designed and intended to comply, to the
extent applicable, with Section 162(m) of the Code, and all provisions hereof
shall be construed in a manner to so comply.
