EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
 
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) effective as of February 1, 2009, by and
between INNODATA ISOGEN, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and JACK
S. ABUHOFF (the “Executive”).
 
WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive wish to continue the Executive’s
employment with the Company pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement,
effective as of February 1, 2009;
 
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:
 
1.     Employment.  The Company hereby continues to employ the Executive as its
President and Chief Executive Officer for and during the Term of this Agreement
(as set forth in Paragraph 4).  The Executive hereby accepts such continued
employment with the Company under the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement.
 
2.     Duties and Authorities of the Executive.  Throughout the Term, the
Executive shall have such duties and authorities as shall be consistent with his
position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, as may be
reasonably assigned to him from time to time by the Board of Directors of the
Company (the “Board”), and he shall report solely and directly to the Board.  At
all times during the Term, the Executive shall be the most senior executive
officer of the Company.
 
3.     Full Business Time.  Throughout the Term, the Executive agrees to devote
substantially all of his professional time and efforts to the performance of his
duties hereunder.  Provided that such activities do not violate any term or
condition of this Agreement, or materially interfere with the performance of his
duties hereunder, or create a conflict of interest, nothing herein shall
prohibit the Executive from (a) participating in other business activities, (b)
engaging in charitable, civic, fraternal or trade group activities, (c)
investing his personal assets in other entities or business ventures, subject to
any policies of the Company applicable to all executive personnel of the
Company, or (d) serving on the board of directors of another entity, provided
that such board service is approved in advance in writing by the Board.
 
4.     Term.  The term of this Agreement shall commence on February 1, 2009, and
shall end when terminated pursuant to Paragraph 7 of this Agreement (the
“Term”).
 
5.     Compensation.
 
(a)   Base Compensation.  The Company shall pay the Executive an annualized base
salary (“Base Salary”) at the rate of Four Hundred Twenty-Four Thousand Three
Hundred Fifty Dollars ($424,350.00), subject to annual reviews by the Board,
such reviews to be coterminous with the annual reviews of the Company’s other
senior executives, but in all events such review shall occur no later than March
of each calendar year during the Term for discretionary increases to be
applicable for the twelve (12) consecutive month period commencing on the
respective next April 1 (the first such increase, if any, commencing April 1,
2010) as determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion; provided,
however, that the Executive shall be entitled to receive annual Base Salary
increases at least equal to the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price
Index, for all urban consumers for all items (U.S. City Average, Not Seasonally
Adjusted), as compiled by the Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics and
published in the Statistical Abstract of the United States for the calendar year
preceding the effective date of the adjustment. Base Salary payments shall be
paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, subject to
deduction for applicable U.S. federal, state and local withholding taxes.  The
Executive’s Base Salary shall at no time during the Term be reduced.
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)    Cash Incentive Compensation.  For each calendar year during the Term, the
Executive shall be eligible to receive a cash bonus (“Bonus”), provided that the
Executive’s performance for the Company for such calendar year is satisfactory
(as determined by the quantitative objectives as established below) in an
amount, if any, to be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”).  The Bonus
for each such calendar year will be payable in accordance with the general
policies and procedures for payment of incentive compensation to senior
executive personnel of the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall
such payment be made later than the March 15 of the calendar year next following
the close of the calendar year for which such Bonus is earned.  The amount of
Bonus will be conditioned on the attainment of certain quantitative objectives
established by the Compensation Committee in its sole and absolute discretion
and communicated thereby in writing to the Executive within the first ninety
(90) days of the applicable calendar year.  The Compensation Committee will also
determine and advise the Executive in writing during such ninety (90) day period
of his “target” Bonus amount for such calendar year, which shall not be less
than sixty percent (60%) of the annual rate of the Executive’s then Base Salary
in effect for the calendar year for which the Bonus is to be
determined.  Executive’s eligibility for, participation in, and the terms and
conditions of any Bonus hereunder shall be set forth in separate official Bonus
plan documents, the terms and conditions of which shall exclusively govern the
payment of any Bonus described in this Paragraph 5(b).  Bonus payments shall be
subject to deduction for applicable U.S. federal, state and local withholding
taxes.
 
(c)    Equity-Based and other Incentive Compensation.  The Executive shall be
granted stock options and/or other equity and/or non-equity based awards and
incentives under the Company’s incentive plans from time to time, and any of
such awards which are stock options shall be “incentive stock options” (within
the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”)), to the maximum extent permissible under Section 422(d) of the
Code.  The types and amounts of such grants shall be determined by the
Compensation Committee in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however,
that any such award which is a stock option shall provide for an exercise price
equal to the fair market value at the time of the grant of the underlying shares
subject thereto, and the terms of any stock option or other incentive award
shall be at least equivalent to the terms of any stock option or other incentive
award, as applicable, granted to the next highest ranking executive of the
Company, at the time of any grant to the Executive.  The Executive’s eligibility
for participation, and the terms and conditions of any awards hereunder shall be
set forth in separate official incentive plan documents, the terms and
conditions of which shall exclusively govern the award, vesting, exercise and
all other aspects of the awards described in this Paragraph 5(c).  As provided
in Paragraph 7(f)(iii)(D), or upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control” (as
defined below), all then outstanding stock options and all other equity-based or
non-equity-based compensation awards, rights or entitlements theretofore granted
or awarded to the Executive by the Company, including but not limited to those
awarded to the Executive under this Paragraph 5(c), shall automatically and
immediately become fully vested and, as applicable, exercisable and relieved of
any and all otherwise applicable transfer restrictions, lock-up or performance
requirements and other restrictions and/or contingencies of any kind. For
purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have
occurred as of the earliest of any of the following to occur during the Term:
 
2

(i)     The closing of a transaction by the Company or any person (other than
the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any employee benefit plan of the
Company or of any subsidiary of the Company) (a “Person”), together with all
“affiliates and “associates” (within the meanings of such terms under Rule 12b-2
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (the “Exchange Act”) of such
Person, shall be the beneficial owner of thirty percent (30%) or more of the
Company’s then outstanding voting stock (“Beneficial Ownership”);
 
(ii)     A change in the constituency of the Board such that, during any period
of thirty-six (36) consecutive months, at least a majority of the entire Board

nomination for election by the shareholders of the Company of each such new
director was approved by a vote of a majority of the Incumbent Directors;
 
(iii)    The closing of a transaction involving the merger, consolidation, share
exchange or similar transaction between the Company and any other corporation
other than a transaction which results in the Company’s voting stock immediately
prior to the consummation of such transaction continuing to represent (either by

entity) at least two-thirds (2/3rds) of the combined voting power of the
Company’s or such surviving entity’s outstanding voting stock immediately after
such transaction; or

payment obligations on the same terms as such other senior executives.  However,
if the Executive does not meet the requirements of the Company’s insurance
underwriters, which requirements shall be uniformly applicable to all of the
Company’s senior executive personnel, the Company shall not provide the
Executive with such insurance but, in lieu thereof, the Company shall pay to the
Executive the amounts it would otherwise have paid for the insurance premiums on
the Executive’s behalf had the Executive met such requirements, which  amounts,
if any, shall be paid at the same time as the insurance premiums would have been
paid by the Company if the Executive had been covered under such insurance.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)           The Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks paid vacation
for each twelve (12) consecutive-month period occurring during the Term, which

calendar quarter during the Term.
 
                The Executive shall be entitled to payment for any accrued, but
unused vacation, upon the termination of his employment with the Company;

six (6) weeks of accrued, but unused, vacation.  Such amount shall be paid in a
single lump sum as soon as practicable following the Executive’s termination of
employment with the Company, but in no event later than ninety (90) days
following such termination.

applicable medical requirements, throughout the Term, solely at its own expense,
the Company shall pay for a Five Million Dollar ($5,000,000.00) term life
insurance policy on the Executive’s life (the Executive shall determine the
beneficiary/beneficiaries under such coverage and the Executive’s insurance
trust shall be the owner of such policy at all times) and long-term disability
coverage for the Executive providing at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent
(66-2/3%) of Base Salary until the Executive attains age sixty-five (65), and
that is non-cancelable and guaranteed renewable.  The Executive’s eligibility
for, participation in, and the terms and conditions of such plans shall be set
forth in separate official plan documents, the terms and conditions of which
shall exclusively govern.
 
(d)            Throughout the Term, the Executive shall be entitled to prompt
reimbursement for his expenses incurred in the performance of his employment for
the Company under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) the amount of such
expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year shall not affect the

last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense
was incurred.

Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) per annum, without prior written approval from
the Compensation Committee,

the Executive’s Base Salary and Bonus shall continue to accrue ratably and be
payable for the ninety (90) day-period commencing immediately after the date of
the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company. Any Bonus paid to
the Executive under this Paragraph 7(b) shall be prorated based upon Executive’s
active duty with the Company and conditioned on the attainment of the
quantitative objectives established by the Compensation Committee in accordance
with Paragraph 5(b).
 
(c)            Termination by the Company for Cause.  The Company may by action
of the Board (of which action the Executive shall have not less than fifteen
(15) days’ prior written notice and at which Board meeting the Executive shall
be entitled to be heard), terminate the Executive’s employment with the Company
for Cause.  Termination for Cause shall mean termination by the Company upon
written notification to the Executive on account of one or more of the following

and a period of thirty (30) days has elapsed for the Executive to reasonably
correct such refusal or misconduct, and the Executive’s failure to reasonably
cure such refusal or misconduct by the end of such period; provided, however,
that no such cure period shall apply if the Board reasonably determines in good
faith that such refusal or misconduct is not susceptible to reasonable cure; and
provided, further, that if any such refusal or misconduct is determined by the
Board in good faith to not be susceptible to reasonable cure within such thirty
(30) day period, such period shall be extended for not more than one hundred and
eighty (180) additional days provided that during such period the Executive
diligently prosecutes such reasonable cure; or

following the date of his termination, at the same times he would have received
his Base Salary had his employment with the Company not terminated; or
 
(II)            If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated
coincident with or following the occurrence of a Change of Control, a lump sum

employment with the Company, cause all Company stock options and all other
Company equity and non equity-based awards and incentives and/or related
compensation rights or entitlements theretofore granted or awarded to the

in Paragraph 5(c) but exclusive of any Bonus, to become fully vested and, to the
extent applicable, exercisable, regardless of the otherwise applicable
vesting/exercise schedule(s) in connection therewith, and relieved of any and
all otherwise applicable transfer restrictions, lock-up or performance
requirements and other restrictions and/or contingencies of any kind.
 
(iv)            If at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment with
the Company, the Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A
of the Code, then any payments pursuant to clause Paragraph 7(f)(iii) shall be
delayed until the date that is six (6) months and one day following his
termination of employment (or, if earlier, the earliest other date as is
permitted under Section 409A of the Code).  The amount payable on such date
shall include all amounts that would have been payable to the Executive prior to
that date but for the application of this clause (iv) and the remaining payments
shall be made in substantially equal installments until fully
paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the six (6) month delay shall not apply to
any such payments made (A) during the short term deferral period set forth in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), or  (B) after said short term
deferral period, payable solely on account of an involuntary separation from
service (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) and in an amount  less than the
Section 409A Severance Exemption Amount.
 
8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For purposes of this clause (iv), each installment payment pursuant to Paragraph
7(f)(iii) shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of
the Code and the “Section 409A Severance Exemption Amount” shall be equal to the
lesser of two (2) times (I) the sum of the Executive’s annualized compensation
based upon the annual rate of pay for services provided to the Company for the
Executive’s taxable year preceding the taxable year in which the Executive’s
employment with the Company terminates, as determined in accordance with
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(i), or (II) the maximum
amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section
401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which the Executive’s employment with the
Company terminates.
 
(g)            In addition, the Company shall pay to the Executive, after
written notice thereof to the Board, as soon as reasonably practicable after the
Executive’s becoming liable for the payment of any tax, penalty and/or interest
incurred by him under Section 409A of the Code in connection with the payment of
his severance benefit under Paragraph 7(e) or 7(f), the amount necessary for the
Executive to pay all such amounts incurred by him under said Section 409A (the
“409A Liability Payment”), plus all additional federal, state and local income
and payroll taxes incurred by the Executive on account of such 409A Liability
Payment to him by the Company (the “Gross-Up Payment”); provided, however,  that
such Gross-Up Payment will be made no later than the end of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which the 409A Liability Payment is paid. The
determination of the existence and the amount of the 409A Liability Payment and
Gross-Up Payment shall be based upon the opinion of tax counsel selected by the
Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive, the fees and expenses of
which shall be paid by the Company.  The Executive and the Company shall each
reasonably cooperate with the other in connection with any administrative or
judicial proceedings concerning the existence or amount of any 409A Liability
Payment, and the Executive agrees to take all actions reasonably requested by
the Company relating to any Internal Revenue Service claim with respect to any
such 409A Liability Payment to allow the Company to timely contest such claim,
at the Company’s sole discretion and expense.
 
(h)            To the extent that any payment under Section 6 or this Section 7
is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Executive shall be considered to
have terminated from employment with the Company for payment purposes only if he
has had a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder.
 
8.              Confidentiality Agreement and Ownership of Information.
 
(a)            The Executive agrees that during the course of employment with
the Company, the Executive has and will come into contact with and have access
to various forms of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, which are the
property of the Company.  This information relates to the Company, its customers
and its employees.  Such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets include, but

orders, where available.
 
9.             Non-Competition Provision.
 
(a)            The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company is engaged
in a highly competitive business and that by virtue of the Executive’s position
and responsibilities with the Company and the Executive’s access to the
Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, the Executive’s engaging in any
business which is directly competitive with the Company will cause it great and
irreparable harm.
 
(b)            Accordingly, the Executive covenants and agrees that so long as
the Executive is employed by the Company and for the period of twelve (12)
months immediately following the termination of such employment, whether
voluntarily or involuntarily, the Executive will not, without the express
written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate or
control, or be employed in any capacity similar to the position(s) held by the
Executive with the Company, by any company or other for-profit entity engaged
primarily in a business that is directly competitive with the Company’s business
at the time of the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company.
In recognition that the Company’s business includes the sale of its products and
services throughout the world, this restriction shall apply on a worldwide
basis.  The foregoing shall not prohibit the Executive from owning not in excess
of five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any company, which is a
reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
10.            Non Interference Provisions.
 
(a)            While employed by the Company and for the period of twelve (12)
months immediately following the Executive’s termination or resignation from
employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive will not, without the
prior written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly, solicit, divert or
appropriate or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate any customers or
clients of the Company who or which were customers or clients of the Company at
the time of the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company and
with whom the Executive had contact during his employment with the Company
and/or about whom the Executive possesses Confidential or Trade Secret
information, for purposes of the Executive’s offering to such customers or
clients of the Company products or services which are directly competitive to
the products and services offered by the Company as of the date of the
Executive’s termination or resignation from employment with the Company for any
reason.
 
11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)            While employed by the Company and for the period of twelve (12)
months immediately following the Executive’s termination or resignation from
employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive will not, without the
prior written consent of the Board, whether as an owner, partner, employee,
consultant, broker, contractor or otherwise, and whether personally or through
other persons, hire as an employee or retain the services of any employee or
other person with whom the Executive had contact during his employment with the
Company about whom the Executive possesses Confidential Information and/or Trade
Secrets as a result of the Executive’s employment with the Company; provided,
however, that the foregoing prohibition shall specifically not apply to the
Executive’s executive assistant(s).
 
(c)            The foregoing shall not prohibit the Executive from owning not in
excess of five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any company which is a
reporting company under the Securities Act of 1934.
 
11.            Enforcement.
 
(a)            Since monetary damages may be inadequate and the Company may be
irreparably harmed if the provisions of Paragraphs 8, 9, 10, and 12 are not
specifically enforced, the Company shall be entitled, among other remedies, to
seek an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction (without the necessity
of posting a bond or other security) restraining any violation of either
Paragraphs 8, 9, 10 or 12 by the Executive and any person or entity to whom the
Executive provides or proposes to provide any services or information in
violation of such Paragraphs.
 
(b)            If any provision contained in Paragraphs 8, 9, 10 or 12 is
determined to be void, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, then the
other provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect as if
the provision which was determined to be void, illegal, or unenforceable had not
been contained herein.  The courts enforcing Paragraphs 8, 9, 10 or 12 shall be
entitled to modify the duration and scope of any restriction contained herein to
the extent such restriction would otherwise be unenforceable, and such
restriction as modified shall be enforced.
 
12.            Inventions.
 
(a)            The Executive shall disclose promptly to the Company any and all
inventions, improvements and valuable discoveries, whether patentable or not,
which are conceived or made by the Executive solely or jointly with another
during his employment for the Company, and which are related to the kinds of
products and services offered by the Company as of the date of any such
invention, improvement, or valuable discovery, and the Executive hereby assigns
and agrees to assign all his interests therein to the Company or its nominee.
Whenever reasonably requested to do so by the Company, the Executive shall
execute any and all applications, assignments or other instruments that the
Company shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain Letters Patent of the
United States or any foreign country or to otherwise protect the Company’s
interest therein.
 
12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)            The Executive and the Company further agree that the Company
shall be entitled solely to shop rights with respect to any invention and
development conceived or made by the Executive during the period of his
employment with the Company that is not related to the kinds of products and
services offered by the Company as of the date of such invention or development
but which was conceived or made on the Company’s time or with the use of the
Company’s facilities or materials and which is directly related to the business
or activities of the Company.
 
13.            Use of General Abilities.  Nothing contained in this Agreement
shall restrict the Executive after the termination or resignation from his
employment under this Agreement or during the term of this Agreement with
respect to activities permissible under Paragraph 3 from using his general
business, organizational and financial abilities, and the exertion of his
efforts, in the prosecution and development of any business, provided that the
specific non-compete and other provisions of this Agreement are not thereby
violated.

between the parties hereto with respect to the employment of the Executive by
the Company, except for any official employee benefit plan documents between the
parties, the terms and conditions of which shall be controlling.  This Agreement
may not be modified, altered or amended except by written agreement of both of
the parties hereto.  The parties further agree that no amendment which would

(d)            Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and permitted assigns,

intend that this Agreement and the Company’s and the Executive’s exercise of
authority or discretion hereunder shall comply with the provisions of Section
409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder so as not to subject the
Executive to the payment of any interest and/or tax penalty which may be imposed
under Section 409A of the Code.  In furtherance of this objective, to the extent
that any regulations or other guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code
would result in the Executive being subject to payment of “additional tax” under
Section 409A of the Code, the parties agree to use their best efforts to amend
this Agreement in order to avoid the imposition of any such “additional tax”
under Section 409A of the Code, all as reasonably determined in good faith by
the Company and the Executive to maintain to the maximum extent practicable the
original intent of the applicable provisions.
