regarding Executive’s employment with the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for full and adequate consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed as follows:

Article 1. Employment and Duties.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, the Company
hereby employs the Executive as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer
and Treasurer. The Executive shall have all of the powers, duties and
responsibilities customary to his position as are reasonably necessary to the
operations of the Company and as may be assigned to him from time to time by the
CEO or Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Executive shall further be
responsible for supervising and directing other officers and employees of the

Article 3. Employment Termination and Severance

3.1. (a) Without Cause. During the employment period, other than during a
Potential Change in Control Protection Period or within the period ending
twenty-four (24) calendar months immediately following a Change in Control as
specified in Article 5 below, the Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment for reasons other than Cause, by notifying the Executive in writing
of the Company’s intent to terminate with the effective date of termination
specified by the Company in the written notice. Upon the effective date of
termination under this Article 3.1(a), if the Executive timely signs a General
Release and does not revoke or violate such General Release, the Company shall
be obligated to pay to the Executive (subject to all appropriate federal and
state withholding taxes):

(i) A cash amount equal to the Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect
immediately prior to the termination;

(ii) A cash amount equal to the Executive’s actual bonus for the last complete
fiscal year prior to the effective date of termination, if any;

(iii) Base Salary and all other benefits due the Executive through the effective
date of termination;

(iv) The unpaid bonus, if any, with respect to the last complete fiscal year
preceding the effective date of termination (such bonus, if any, to be
determined in the manner it would have been determined and payable at the time
it would have been payable hereunder had there been no termination of the
employment period);

(v) To the extent that the Executive is eligible for and elects to receive
medical and/or dental benefits pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) for himself and/or any qualifying
beneficiaries, the Company shall pay on the Executive’s behalf, or reimburse the
Executive for, the amount of the applicable COBRA premium that exceeds the
amount of premium from time to time payable by the Executive for the same level
of coverage immediately prior to the effective date of termination. Any such
COBRA premium payment by the Company that constitutes taxable income to the
Executive shall be grossed up by the Company, assuming an applicable income tax
rate of forty percent (40%). Payments under this paragraph shall be made monthly
and shall cease at the earlier of (i) the end of the first month in which the
Executive (or qualified beneficiary) is no longer eligible for COBRA for any
reason (except to the extent that COBRA coverage continues for any qualified
beneficiary), or (ii) eighteen (18) months after the Executive’s date of
termination. The Executive shall notify the Company as soon as practicable after
he ceases to be eligible for COBRA coverage due to coverage under the group
health plan of another employer; and

(vi) All other rights and benefits that the Executive has vested in prior to or
as a result of his termination of employment pursuant to other plans and
programs of the Company.

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

(b) Death or Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason
of death or Disability (as defined as in the Company’s long-term disability
plan), the Company shall be obligated to pay the Executive or, if applicable,
the Executive’s estate: The amounts and benefits described in Article 3.1(a)
(iii), (iv), (v) and (vi), and an additional lump-sum cash payment equal to the
Executive’s Base Salary for a period of six (6) months; provided, however, that
such lump sum payment shall be offset by any payments under the Company’s
short-term disability policy or under any long-term disability plan or insurance
program maintained by the Company.

(c) Voluntary Termination. The Executive may terminate this Agreement at any
time by giving the Company written notice of intent to terminate. The Executive
will receive the amounts and benefits described in Article 3.1(a) (iii),
(iv) and (vi), but shall not be paid any bonus with respect to the fiscal year
in which voluntary termination occurs.

3.2. General Release. As a condition precedent to receiving any of the payments
and benefits set forth in Article 3.1(a)(i), (ii), (iv) or (v) above (the
“Severance Benefits”), the Executive (or his estate as the case may be) agrees
to execute and return to the Company, and not revoke or attempt to revoke, a
general release (a “General Release”) in a form acceptable to the Company, which
the Company shall provide to the Executive within five (5) business days
following his termination from employment. The Employee shall sign and return
the General Release within the reasonable time period designated by the Company,
which shall not be less than twenty-one (21) days nor more than forty-five
(45) days. The General Release shall (i) release the Company and its affiliates,
directors, officers, employees and agents from any and all claims that the
Executive may have in connection with his employment or termination thereof, to
the extent permitted by applicable laws, and (ii) except in the case of the
Executive’s death, require the Executive to affirmatively agree not to violate
the provisions of Article 4. Any Severance Benefits that would otherwise be
provided during the period for review and revocation of the General Release (the
“Revocation Period”) will be provided within five (5) business days after the
Revocation Period ends, but if such period crosses calendar years, such
Severance Benefits shall be provided in the later calendar year. 

3.3. Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment at
any time for Cause. “Cause” for termination means:

(a) The Executive’s conviction of, entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere
or no contest to a charge of, or admission of a felony or a crime involving
moral turpitude; or

(b) The Executive’s commission of an act constituting fraud, deceit, or material
misrepresentation with respect to the Company; or

(c) The Executive’s commission of any negligent or willful act or omission that
causes material damage (by reason, without limitation, of financial exposure or
loss, damage to reputation or goodwill, or exposure to civil or criminal
penalties or to other prosecutorial action by any governmental authority) to the
Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation thereof; or

 

3

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

(d) The Executive’s willful or material violation of any provision of the
Company’s Code of Ethics, Conduct and Responsibility; or

(e) Willful and material misstatement knowingly made or caused to be made by the
Executive in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other
governmental authority; or

(f) The Executive’s willful or material violation of any of the covenants
contained in Article 4, as applicable.

For purposes of this Article 3.3, no act or omission by the Executive shall be
considered “willful” unless it is done or omitted in bad faith or without
reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best
interests of the Company. Any act or failure to act based upon and consistent
with: (i) authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board; or
(ii) written advice of counsel for the Company with written notice given by such
counsel to the Board prior to such act or failure to act, shall be conclusively
presumed to be done or omitted to be done by the Executive in good faith and in
the best interests of the Company.

The effective date of Executive’s termination shall be the date specified by the
Company in written notice of termination to the Executive. If this Agreement is
terminated by the Company for Cause, the Company shall be obligated to pay or
provide (A) the Executive’s Base Salary through the effective date of
termination, and (B) any other rights and benefits that the Executive has vested
in prior to or as a result of his termination of employment under the express
terms of an employee benefit plan of the Company, except to the extent that such
rights or benefits may be forfeited upon termination for Cause; and the
Executive shall immediately thereafter forfeit all other rights and benefits
under this Agreement or as a current or former employee of the Company.

3.4. Severance Payment Schedule. Severance Benefits payable in the form of cash
to the Executive or the Executive’s estate, pursuant to termination events
described in this Article 3, shall be paid in two (2) semi-annual installments,
as follows: (a) fifty percent (50%) of the total of the amounts set forth in
Articles 3.1(a)(i) and (ii) (the foregoing amounts are hereinafter referred to
as a “Severance Installment Payment”), and all amounts set forth in Article
3.1(a)(iii) and (iv), shall be paid within five (5) business days after the
expiration of the Revocation Period (the “First Installment”); and (b) the
remaining Severance Installment Payment shall be paid on the six (6) month
anniversary of the Executive’s termination date . The Company’s obligation to
pay Severance Benefits due to the Executive pursuant to this Article 3, to the
extent not already paid, shall cease immediately, and such payments will be
forfeited, in the event of Executive’s willful or material violation of any of
the covenants contained in Article 3 or 4, as applicable.

3.5. Section 409A Compliance. The parties intend and agree that any payments
contemplated by this Agreement constituting “deferred compensation” for purposes
of Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) Section 409A shall comply with the
requirements of such section.

(a) No deferred compensation payable hereunder shall be subject to acceleration
or to any change in the specified time or method of payment, except as otherwise
provided under this Agreement and consistent with Code Section 409A. In no event
shall the Company have any liability or obligation with respect to taxes for
which Executive may become liable as a result of the application of Code
Section 409A.

 

4

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

(b) Whether the Executive has incurred a termination of employment for purposes
of receiving any deferred compensation payment will be determined in accordance
with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (or any
successor provisions).

(c) Payments in respect of the Executive’s termination of employment under
Article 3 or Article 5 are designated as separate payments for Code Section 409A
purposes.

(d) To the extent that this Agreement provides for the reimbursement of expenses
incurred by the Executive, such reimbursement shall not be made later than the
last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense was
incurred. The amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits
provided to the Executive in any taxable year of the Executive shall not affect
the amount of expenses to be reimbursed or in-kind benefits to be provided in
any other year.

Article 4. Noncompetition, Confidentiality, Nonsolicitation, and Ownership

4.1. Noncompetition; Nonsolicitation of Consultants, Clients, Customers, etc.
The Executive acknowledges and agrees that by virtue of his employment with the
Company, he has or will have access to valuable proprietary information not
known to the public that the Company possesses, including but not limited to,
methods of operation, business strategies and plans, financial information,
marketing materials, ideas, trade secrets, customer contacts and other customer
information (“Proprietary Information”). The Executive further acknowledges and
agrees that the Company has legitimate business interests in assuring that his
unique knowledge of the Company, including but not limited to that knowledge
regarding and relating to the foregoing information, is not disclosed or
converted to the use of entities or individuals in competition with the Company.
The Executive therefore agrees that during the employment period and for a
period of one (1) year after the date of termination of the Executive’s
employment by the Company without Cause as set forth in Article 3.1(a) above, he
will not, directly or indirectly, compete with the Company or its subsidiaries
or affiliates by providing services or by being an officer, director, employee,
consultant, agent, advisor, shareholder or owner to or of any other person,
partnership, association, corporation, or other entity that is a “Competing
Business,” except that he may have an ownership interest of up to two percent
(2%) of a Competing Business which is a public company. As used herein, a
“Competing Business” is any business whose activities relate to the products or
services of the same or similar type as the products or services which are sold
(or, pursuant to an existing business plan, will be sold) to paying customers of
the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, and for which the Executive has
the responsibility to plan, develop, manage, market, or oversee, or had any such
responsibility within the Executive’s most recent twenty-four (24) months of
employment with the Company immediately prior to termination of employment with
the Company. Following termination of employment, the Executive may request in
writing an exception to the foregoing provision from the Company for prospective
employment, which exception will be granted if the Company, in its sole
discretion, determines that such prospective employment will not unduly or
materially compete with or otherwise interfere with the business of the Company.
The restrictions on competition and solicitation as set forth in this paragraph
shall not apply in the event that the Executive terminates employment pursuant
to Article 3.1(c) of this Agreement.

 

5

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

In addition to the foregoing, the Executive agrees that, for a period of one
(1) year after the date of termination or cessation of the Executive’s
employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever, he will not, directly or
indirectly, intentionally entice, induce or solicit, or attempt to entice,
induce or solicit, any individual or entity having a current or prospective
business relationship with the Company, whether as a consultant, client,
customer or otherwise, to terminate or cease such relationship with the Company,
or to fail to enter into or renew such relationship with the Company.

The parties agree that the above restrictions on competition and solicitation
are completely severable and independent agreements supported by good and
valuable consideration and, as such, shall survive the termination of this
Agreement for whatever reason. The parties further agree that any invalidity or
unenforceability of any one or more of such restrictions on competition shall
not render invalid or unenforceable any remaining restrictions on competition.
Additionally, should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that the scope
of any provision of this Article 4.1 is too broad to be enforced as written, the
parties intend that the court reform the provision to such narrower scope as it
determines to be reasonable and enforceable. The Executive acknowledges and
agrees that the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions herein are
expressly assignable to any successor of the Company as set forth in Article
6(b).

4.2. Nonsolicitation of Employees. During the employment period and for a period
of one (1) year after the termination or cessation of his employment with the
Company for any reason whatsoever, the Executive shall not, on his own behalf or
on behalf of any other person, partnership, association, corporation, or entity:
(a) directly, indirectly, or through a third party hire or cause to be hired;
(b) directly, indirectly, or through a third party solicit; or (c) in any manner
attempt to influence or induce any employee of the Company or its subsidiaries
or affiliates to leave the employment of the Company or its subsidiaries or
affiliates, nor shall he use or disclose to any person, partnership,
association, corporation, or other entity any information obtained concerning
the names and addresses the Company’s employees. The Executive further agrees
and acknowledges that the Company has confidentiality and non-competition
agreements with certain of its employees, and he agrees that he will not
interfere with any such agreements. The parties agree that the above
restrictions on hiring and solicitation are completely severable and independent
agreements supported by good and valuable consideration and, as such, shall
survive the termination of this Agreement for whatever reason. The parties
further agree that any invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more of such
restrictions on hiring and solicitation shall not render invalid or
unenforceable any remaining restrictions on hiring and solicitation.
Additionally, should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that the scope
of any provision of this Article 4.2 is too broad to be enforced as written, the
parties intend that the court reform the provision to such narrower scope as it
determines to be reasonable and enforceable.

 

6

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

4.3. Nondisclosure of Proprietary Information. During the term of this Agreement
and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, the Executive agrees: (a) to treat
all Proprietary Information in a secret and confidential manner, take all
reasonable steps to maintain such secrecy, and comply with all applicable
procedures established by the Company with respect to maintaining the secrecy
and confidentiality of Proprietary Information; (b) to use Proprietary
Information only as necessary and proper in the performance of the Executive’s
duties as an employee of the Company; and (c) except as necessary and proper in
the performance of the Executive’s duties as an employee of the Company, to not
directly or indirectly, without the written consent of the Company, reproduce,
copy, disseminate, publish, disclose, provide or otherwise make available to any
person, firm, corporation, agency or other entity, any Proprietary Information
except as necessary and proper in the performance of the Executive’s duties as
an employee of the Company. Under no circumstances shall the Executive use,
directly or indirectly, any such Proprietary Information for his personal gain
or profit.

4.4. Nondisparagement. During the employment period and at all times thereafter,
the Executive agrees to not disparage the Company or otherwise make comments
harmful to the Company’s reputation.

4.5. Ownership. The Executive agrees that all inventions, copyrightable
material, business and/or technical information, marketing plans, customer
lists, and trade secrets that arise out of the performance of this Agreement are
the property of the Company.

Article 5. Change in Control
