Reason), provided that the Company demonstrates that such failure has a material
and injurious effect on the Company and provided, further, that a written demand
for substantial performance is first delivered to the Executive by the Board

respect with the Executive’s positions (including status, offices, titles and
reporting requirements), authority, duties or responsibilities as contemplated
in Section 3(a), or any other diminution in such positions, authority, duties or
responsibilities (whether or not occurring solely as a result of the Company’s
ceasing to be a publicly traded entity), excluded for this purpose: (i) an
isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and that
is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the
Executive; and (ii) the hiring or promotion by the Board of another senior

obligations to perform this Agreement by any successor to all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company, whether by written agreement or operation of
law.

threatened breach of any obligation under Section 11 or Section 12 above will
cause the Company irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law,

relief in favor of itself, without the necessity of posting a bond, restraining
the Executive from committing or continuing to commit any such violation.

Executive’s Release of Claims

AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

THIS AGREEMENT AND RELEASE is executed by Gene W. Ray (the “Executive”)
releasing certain claims against The Titan Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), and certain
affiliated parties.

WHEREAS, the Executive and the Company have entered into an employment agreement
as of  _______________ (the “Employment Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Executive’s employment with the Company has terminated, including by
retirement, and as such Executive is due certain payments and entitlements
pursuant to the Employment Agreement subject to the Executive’s executing this
Agreement and Release.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the ­payments set forth in Section 9 of the
Employment Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the Executive
agrees as follows:

1.         The Executive, on behalf of himself and his dependents, heirs,
administrators, agents, executors, successors and assigns, hereby releases and
forever discharges the Company and all of its current and former subsidiaries,
joint venturers and affiliates, and all of their respective directors,
shareholders, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, insurers, employees and
all individuals or entities acting by, through, under or in concert with any of
them (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all charges,
controversies, claims, wages, rights, agreements, actions, costs or expenses,
causes of action, obligations, damages, losses, promises and liabilities of
whatever kind or nature, in law or equity or otherwise, whether known or
unknown, suspected or unsuspected, from the beginning of time to the date the
Executive executes this Agreement and Release, including, but not limited to,
any claims directly or indirectly arising out of, based upon or relating in
anyway to Executive’s employment with Titan or any affiliate, or the termination
thereof, or relating to or arising from any alleged act or omission by any of
the Released Parties. 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive expressly waives
and releases all claims the Executive may have under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act (ADEA), as amended by the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act
(OWPBA) or any state counterpart, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the
Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Equal Pay Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act,
all claims of discrimination, retaliation or harassment under the California
Fair Employment and Housing Act, all claims under the California Labor Code, the
California Constitution, the California Family Rights Act, the California
Industrial Welfare Commission Orders or any local, state or federal law or
regulation governing discrimination in employment; all claims under state
contract or tort law such as wrongful termination, assault, invasion of privacy,
breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation or
negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress and all claims for
attorneys’ fees.

Anything to the contrary notwithstanding in this Agreement and Release or the
Employment Agreement, nothing herein shall release any Released Party from any
claims or damages based on (i) any right or claim that arises after the date of
this Agreement and Release, (ii) any right the Executive may have to enforce the
Employment Agreement or this Agreement and Release, (iii) any right the
Executive may have to vested benefits under any applicable plan, policy,
program, award or agreement of the Company; (iv) the Executive’s eligibility for
indemnification in accordance with applicable laws or the Company’s certificate
of incorporation or by-laws, or under any applicable insurance policy with
respect to any liability the Executive incurs or has incurred as a director or
officer of the Company; (v) any rights arising out of any investor relationship
the Executive has with the Company or any affiliate, including, but not limited
to, any claim pertaining to securities or other financial instruments,
investments or partnerships; or (vi) any claims of a personal nature unrelated
to the business of the Company or any affiliate.

2.         The Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement
and Release fully and finally releases and fully resolves any and all disputes
between him and any Released Party with respect to the claims released herein,
including those that are unknown, unanticipated or unsuspected or which may
hereafter arise as a result of the discovery of new or additional facts. 
Accordingly, the Executive expressly waives all of his rights under California
Civil Code § 1542, which provides that

            A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES
NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE,
WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE
DEBTOR.

The Executive also expressly waives all rights under any other statute, legal
decisions or common law principles of similar effect. 

3.         The Executive acknowledges that he has been provided a period of at
least 21 calendar days in which to consider and execute this Agreement and
Release.  The Executive further acknowledges and understands that he has seven
calendar days from the date on which he executes this Agreement and Release to
revoke his acceptance of this Agreement and Release by delivering to the Company
written notification of his intention to revoke this Agreement and Release in
accordance with the notice provision in Section 17 of the Employment Agreement. 
If the Executive so revokes his agreement to this Agreement and Release he shall
not be entitled to the payments, benefits and other entitlements provided
pursuant to Section 9 of the Employment Agreement.  This Agreement and Release
becomes effective when signed by the Executive unless revoked in writing in
accordance with this seven-day provision.  To the extent that the Executive has
not otherwise done so, the Executive is advised to consult with an attorney
prior to executing this Agreement and Release.

4.         The Executive agrees never to file a claim against any Released Party
with respect to the claims released by the Executive herein.  If the Executive
files such a claim, he agrees to pay all costs incurred by the Released Party,
including attorneys’ fees, in defending against such claim.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive has executed this Agreement and Release as of
the date written below.
