UTIVE COMPENSATION
“Cause” is defined in the Employment Agreement as (a) the willful and continued failure by Dr. Kinney to substantially perform his duties with the Company (other than as a result of physical or mental disability) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Dr. Kinney by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Dr. Kinney has not substantially performed his duties and that has not been cured within 30 days following receipt by him of the written demand; (b) commission by Dr. Kinney of a felony (other than a traffic-related offense) that in the written determination of the Board is likely to cause or has caused material injury to our business; (c) documented intentional misrepresentation or omission of material fact with respect to a significant matter relating to our business; or (d) material breach of any agreement by and between Dr. Kinney and the Company, which material breach has not been cured within 30 days following receipt by Dr. Kinney of written notice from the Board identifying such material breach. "Cause" is defined in the option award agreements as (i) the willful breach, habitual neglect or poor performance of job duties and responsibilities; (ii) conviction (or entry of a guilty plea or plea of nolo contendere) of any crime,

excluding minor traffic offenses; (iii) commission of an act of dishonesty or breach of fiduciary duty; (iv) commission of a material violation of any of the Company’s personnel policies; or (v) any act or omission which is contrary to the business interest, reputation or goodwill of the Company.

“Good Reason” is defined in the Employment Agreement as (a) a material diminution in Dr. Kinney’s base compensation; (b) a material diminution in his authority, duties or responsibilities; (c) a change in the geographic location at which he must perform his services that increases his one-way commute by more than 30 miles; or (d) a material breach of the Employment Agreement by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dr. Kinney will not have “Good Reason” unless the condition giving rise to his resignation continues more than 30 days following his written notice of the condition provided to the Company within 90 days of the first occurrence of such condition and his resignation is effective within 180 days following the first occurrence of such condition. The definition of “Good Reason” in the option award agreements is substantially similar to the definition in
