become an employee of the Company or any such affiliate; and

thereafter the Employee will not solicit, in competition with the Company or its
affiliates, any person who is, or was at any time within two years prior to the
Termination Date, a customer of the business conducted by the Company or any of
its affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, the reasonable decision of the
Board as to what constitutes a competing business shall be final and binding
upon the Employee; provided that the Employee’s ownership of securities of two
percent (2%) or less of any publicly traded class of securities of a public
company shall not be considered to be competition with the Company or any of its
affiliates.

 

(c)         During the Employment Term and following the termination of this
Agreement, the Employee will not: (i) divulge, transmit or otherwise disclose
(except as legally compelled by court order, and then only to the extent
required, after prompt notice to the Company of any such order), directly or
indirectly, other than in the regular and proper course of business of the
Company, any confidential knowledge or information with respect to the
operations, finances, organization or employees of the Company or with respect
to confidential or secret processes, services, techniques, customers or plans
with respect to the Company, and (ii) use, directly or indirectly, any
confidential information for the benefit of anyone other than the Company;
provided, however, that the Employee has no obligation, express or implied, to
refrain from using or disclosing to others any such knowledge or information
which is or hereafter shall become available to the public other than through
disclosure by the Employee. All new processes, techniques, now-how, inventions,
plans, products, patents and devices developed, made or invented by the
Employee, alone or with others, while an employee of the Company which are
related to the business of the Company shall be and become the sole property of
the Company, unless released in writing by the Company, and the Employee hereby
assigns any and all rights therein or thereto to the Company.

 

5

 

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

            (d)        All files, records, correspondence, memoranda, notes, or
other documents (including, without limitation, those in computer-readable
form), real property or intellectual property relating or belonging to the
Company or its affiliates, whether prepared by the Employee or otherwise coming
into his possession in the course of the performance of his services under this
Agreement, shall be the exclusive property of Company and shall be delivered to
Company and not retained by the Employee (including, without limitations, any
copies thereof) upon termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever.

 

(e)         The Employee acknowledges that a breach of his covenants contained
in this Section 8 may cause irreparable damage to the Company and its
affiliates, the exact amount of which will be difficult ascertain, and that the
remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, the
Employee agrees that if he breaches any of the covenants contained in this
Section 8, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in
equity, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive
relief.

 

(f)         The Company and the Employee further acknowledge that the time,
scope, geographic area and other provisions of this Section 8 have been
specifically negotiated by sophisticated commercial parties and agree that all
such provisions are reasonable under the circumstances of the activities
contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that the agreements in this Section
8 shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable
by reason of their extending for too great a period of time or over too great a
geographical area or by reason of their being too extensive in any other
respect, they shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of
time for which they may be enforceable and/or over the maximum geographical
areas as to which they may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all
other respects as to which they may be enforceable, all as determined by such
court in such action.

 

(g)        The Employee agrees to cooperate with the Company, during the
Employment Term and thereafter (including following the Employee’s termination
of employment for any reason), by making himself reasonably available to testify
on behalf of the Company or any of its affiliates in any action, suit, or
proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, and to
assist the Company, or any affiliate, in any such action, suit, or proceeding,
by providing information and meeting and consulting with the Board or its
representatives or counsel, or representatives or counsel to the Company, or any
affiliate as reasonably requested; provided, however, that the same does not
materially interfere with his then current professional activities and is not
contrary to the best interests of the Employee. The Company agrees to reimburse
the Employee, on an after-tax basis, for all expenses actually incurred in
connection with his provision of testimony or assistance.

 

(h)        The parties agree that, during the Employment Term and thereafter
(including following the Employee’s termination of employment for any reason)
that they will not make statements or representations, or otherwise communicate,
directly or indirectly, disparage the other party or any of its affiliates or
their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, businesses or
reputations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude either party from making truthful statements or disclosures that are
required by applicable law, regulation or legal process.

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

            9.          Arbitration. The parties agree that any dispute, claim,
or controversy based on common law, equity, or any federal, state, or local
statute, ordinance, or regulation (other than workers’ compensation claims)
arising out of or relating in any way to the Employee’s employment, the terms,
benefits, and conditions of employment, or concerning this Agreement or its
termination and any resulting termination of employment, including whether such
a dispute is arbitrable, shall be settled by arbitration. This agreement to
arbitrate includes but is not limited to all claims for any form of illegal
discrimination, improper or unfair treatment or dismissal, and all tort claims.
The Employee will still have a right to file a discrimination charge with a
federal or state agency, but the final resolution of any discrimination claim
will be submitted to arbitration instead of a court or jury. The arbitration
proceeding will be conducted under the employment dispute resolution arbitration
rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time a demand for
arbitration under the rule sis made. The decision of the arbitrator(s),
including determination of the amount of any damages suffered, will be
exclusive, final, and binding on all parties, their heirs, executors,
administrators, successors, and assigns. Each party will bear its own expenses
in the arbitration for arbitrators’ fees and attorneys’ fees, for its witnesses,
and for other expenses of presenting its case. Other arbitration costs,
including administrative fees and fees for records or transcripts, will be borne
equally by the parties.

General.

 

(a)         Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and
performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Pennsylvania applicable to contracts executed and to be performed entirely
within the State of Pennsylvania.

 

(b)        Construction and Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired, and the parties undertake
to implement all efforts which are necessary, desirable and sufficient to amend,

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

            (c)         Performance; Assignability. The Employee represents and
warrants to the Company that the Employee has no contracts or agreements of any
nature that the Employee has entered into with any other person, firm or
corporation that contain any restraints on the Employee’s ability to perform his
obligations under this Agreement. The Employee may not assign his interest in or
delegate his duties under this Agreement. This Agreement is for the employment
of the Employee, personally, and the services to be rendered by him under this
Agreement must be rendered by him and no other person. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the befit of the Company and its successors and
assigns. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Company may assign this Agreement to and all rights hereunder shall inure to the
benefit of any person, firm or corporation resulting from the reorganization of
the Company or succeeding to the business or assets of the Company by purchase,
merger or consolidation. The Company will require any successor (whether direct
or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no succession had
taken place. The Company’s failure to obtain such an assumption and agreement
prior to the effective date of a succession will be a breach of this Agreement
and will entitle the Employee to compensation from the Company in the same
amount and on the same terms as if the Employee were to terminate his employment
for Good Reason, except that, for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the
date on which any such succession becomes effective will be deemed the
Termination Date.

 

(d)        Compliance with Rules and Policies. The Employee shall perform all
services in accordance with the policies, procedures and rules established by
the Company, including, but not limited to, the By-Laws of the Company. In
addition, the Employee shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations that
are generally applicable to the Company, its affiliates and their employees,
directors and officers.

 

(e)         Withholding. The Company shall withhold from all amounts due
hereunder any withholding taxes payable to federal, state, local or foreign
taxing authorities.

 

(f)         Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof, supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral,
and may not be modified or amended in any way except in writing by the parties
hereto.

 

(g)        Duration. Notwithstanding the Employment Term hereunder, this
Agreement shall continue for so long as any obligations remain under this
Agreement.

 

(h)        Survival. The covenants set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement
shall survive and shall continue to be binding upon the Employee notwithstanding
the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever. It is expressly
agreed that the remedy at law for the breach or threatened breach of any such
covenant is inadequate and that the Company, in addition to any other remedies
that may be available to it, in law or in equity, shall be entitled to
injunctive relief to prevent the breach or any threatened breach thereof without
bond or other security or a showing that monetary damages will not provide an
adequate remedy.

provision of this Agreement to be performed by, the other party shall be deemed
a waiver of a similar or dissimilar requirement, provision or condition of this
Agreement at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any such waiver shall be
express and in writing, and there shall be no waiver by conduct.

 

(j)         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one instrument.
