directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent
(50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding

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

“Triggering Event” means the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(i) the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company without
“Cause” as such term is defined herein; or

(ii) Executive terminates his employment because the Company has materially
reduced Executive’s Base Salary or the amount of bonus for which Executive is
eligible from the levels in place at the time of the Change of Control; or

(iii) Executive terminates his employment because the Company has reduced
Executive’s duties or authority so as to materially reduce Executive’s overall
job responsibilities from the levels in place at the time of the Change of
Control;

provided that, none of the events described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above
shall constitute a Triggering Event unless and until the Executive first
notifies the Company in writing describing the event(s) which constitute(s) the
Triggering Event(s) within 90 days after the occurrence of such event(s) and the
Company fails to cure such event(s) within 30 days after the Company’s receipt
of such written notice.

2. Severance Compensation.

(a) If a Triggering Event occurs within twelve (12) months following a Change of
Control, the Company shall pay to Executive each of the following as “Severance
Compensation”:

(i) An amount equal to 100% of Executive’s Base Salary in place at the time of
the Triggering Event, without regard to applicable notice and cure periods (or
Change of Control, in the case of a Triggering Event resulting from a material
reduction in Executive’s Base Salary), payable as specified below; and

(ii) An amount equal to 100% of the target annual bonus that Executive would
have been eligible to earn under the Company’s annual bonus plan for the bonus
measurement period during which the Triggering Event (or Change of Control
occurs, in the case of a Triggering Event resulting from a material reduction in
the amount of bonus for which Executive is eligible) occurs, calculated on the
basis of Executive’s target bonus for that year on the assumption that all
performance targets will be achieved, payable as specified below.

(iii) An amount equal to (A) the monthly premium the Executive would be required
to pay for continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) for the Executive and his
eligible dependents who were covered under the Company’s health plans as of the
Triggering Event (calculated by reference to the premium as of the Triggering
Event), multiplied by (A) 12.

(b) Payment of the Severance Compensation is contingent upon: (i) Executive’s
executing and delivering to the Company a release in favor of the Company in the
form of Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “General Release”) and the General
Release

 

3

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

becoming effective without timely revocation; and (ii) Executive’s
satisfactorily performing his obligations under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the restrictive covenants pertaining to confidentiality,
non-disclosure, non-solicitation, and non-competition, whether contained in this
Agreement or any other agreement with the Company (the “Restrictive Covenants”).
Specifically, if Executive has not satisfactorily performed all of his
obligations under this Agreement or the foregoing Restrictive Covenants, then
Executive will not be entitled to any Severance Compensation and the Company
shall not pay the Severance Compensation; or, if such Severance Compensation has
already been paid, Executive shall be required to reimburse the Company in the
full amounts paid. Further, if the Executive has not executed and delivered the
General Release by the date that is sixty (60) days after the Triggering Event
(the “Required Release Date”), the Executive shall forfeit all rights to receive
the Severance Compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive
unintentionally and in good faith takes action which in the Company’s view
constitutes a violation of the Restrictive Covenants (other than the Restrictive
Covenants pertaining to confidentiality and non-disclosure) and promptly
discontinues such action upon notice from the Company, then such action shall
not entitle the Company to discontinue the Severance Compensation or require
Executive to forfeit any previously paid Severance Compensation.

(c) Subject to Section 20, the Severance Compensation described in Sections
2(a)(i), 2(a)(ii) and 2(a)(iii) shall be paid in a lump sum within thirty
(30) days following the Triggering Event (or, if later, ten (10) days after the
Company’s receipt of the General Release and expiration of all revocation
periods in the General Release (the “Release Effective Date”)).

(d) All Severance Compensation payments are subject to the usual taxes, payroll
deductions and withholdings and shall be mailed to Executive’s last known
residential address. It is Executive’s obligation to keep the Company informed
as to any changes to such address.

(e) Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee
benefits or other compensation after termination of his employment for reason
other than a Triggering Event, except as otherwise specifically provided for
under an Employment Agreement, the Company’s employee benefit plans or as
otherwise expressly required by applicable law. Executive acknowledges and
confirms that as of the date of this Agreement he is not a party to an
employment agreement with the Company.

3. Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges that in the course of his
employment by the Company he will obtain knowledge of confidential information
regarding the Company’s business and affairs, the Company has invested and will
continue to invest substantial time and resources in the development, training
and support of Executive, and he will develop relationships with its employees,
customers, and suppliers. Accordingly, Executive covenants and agrees that:

(a) Non-Competition: Executive shall not compete with the Company at any time
during employment with the Company and for twelve (12) months after Executive’s

 

4

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

termination of employment or resignation. To “compete” means (i) to directly or
indirectly establish or aid in establishing, or have effective control over any
business competitive with the Company’s business; or (ii) to become associated
with or render services as an employee, independent contractor, consultant or
otherwise, to any person, firm, corporation or other entity engaged in any
business competitive with the Company’s business. Mere ownership of less than
one percent (1%) of the outstanding common stock of a corporation competitive
with the Company’s business whose stock is traded on any major United States
stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market shall not be considered as a
violation of this Agreement. For purpose of this Section 3(a), “any business
competitive with the Company’s business” shall mean a business that provides
power distribution or power management solutions for military or commercial
customers.

(b) Non-Solicitation: At all times during Executive’s employment and after
Executive’s termination of employment or resignation, Executive shall keep all
information about the Company’s customers confidential and secret and shall not
disclose or use that information in any manner, either directly or indirectly,
orally or in writing or otherwise, to any person, firm, corporation, or other
entity. Furthermore, at all times during Executive’s employment and for
twenty-four (24) months after the termination of Executive’s employment or
Executive’s resignation, Executive shall not solicit the business of any of the
persons, firms, corporations or other entities who are the Company’s customers,
for or on behalf of Executive (if Executive is competing with the Company) or
any person, firm, corporation or other entity that is in competition for the
Company’s business. For purpose of this Section 3(b), “any business competitive
with the Company’s business” shall mean a business that provides power
distribution or power management solutions for military or commercial customers.

(c) Non-Inducement: At all times during Executive’s employment and for
twenty-four (24) months after the termination of Executive’s employment or
Executive’s resignation, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, induce
or attempt to induce any present or former employee of the Company to gain or
seek employment with any person or business.

(d) Non-Disclosure: At all times during Executive’s employment and after the
termination of Executive’s employment or Executive’s resignation, Executive
shall protect and guard the Company’s Confidential Information. Executive shall
not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose to any person, firm,
corporation or other entity, or use for Executive’s own purposes any
Confidential Information, regardless of how it is acquired, except as
Executive’s use of the Confidential Information may be authorized by the
Company; provided, however, that if Executive is required to disclose any
Confidential Information by legal process, including a subpoena to testify or
produce documents, Executive shall satisfy his obligations under this
Section 3(d) by promptly giving notice to the Company of the demand for
disclosure and cooperating with the Company to contest the disclosure (if the
Company so elects) and obtain confidential treatment for any Confidential
Information which is disclosed.

 

5

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

(e) Return Materials to Company: Upon termination of employment, Executive shall
promptly deliver to the Company, without retaining any copies, all memoranda,
diaries, notes, records, sketches, plans, specifications, or other documents or
things containing Confidential Information developed or obtained by Executive.

(f) Inventions and Discoveries: Any and all inventions and discoveries, whether
or not patentable, which Executive may conceive or make, either alone or in
conjunction with others, during Executive’s employment and relating to the
Company’s business shall be the exclusive property of the Company. Furthermore,
Executive shall, upon the request of the Company and without further
compensation or consideration, but at the expense of the Company, promptly
execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and other instruments
which the Company shall deem necessary in order to apply for and obtain letters
patent of the United States and foreign countries for those inventions and
discoveries, and in order to assign and convey to the Company or its nominee the
sole and exclusive right, title and interest in and to those inventions,
discoveries or any applications or patents upon them.

(g) Mutual Non-Disparagement: Executive agrees not to make any disparaging
statements about the Company or its officers, agents or employees during
Executive’s employment and after the termination of Executive’s employment or
Executive’s resignation. The Company agrees not to permit any executive officer
of the Company to make any disparaging statements about Executive after the
termination of Executive’s employment or Executive’s resignation; provided,
however, that it shall not be considered a breach of this section for (i) any
executive officer of the Company to make disparaging statements to another
executive officer about Executive and/or his performance in their capacity in
operating the business, or (ii) the Company to make a factual statement
regarding the circumstances of Executive’s departure if required by law or for a
business purpose.

(h) Executive makes the preceding covenants in consideration for, and as a
necessary condition of, Executive’s continued employment by the Company and the
severance arrangements described in this Agreement. The preceding covenants are
independent of any obligation of the Company to Executive, including any
obligations of the Company to Executive under this Agreement or arising from any
aspect of the employment relationship, and are not subject to any set-off,
defense, deduction, or counterclaim based on any claim Executive might have
against the Company. Executive stipulates that the duration and geographic scope
of these restrictions are reasonable limitations necessary to protect the
Company’s business interests, that the restrictions do not unduly oppress
Executive’s occupational future or opportunities, and that Executive has been
adequately compensated for these restrictions. The duration of the Executive’s
obligations set forth in this Section 3 will be extended by any period of time
during which Executive is in breach of the obligation.

(i) Each provision of the preceding covenants should be construed and
interpreted so that it is valid and enforceable under applicable law. However,
if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the duration, geographical
area, or proscribed

 

6

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

activities of the restrictions under this Agreement would cause strict
application of those restrictions to be invalid or unenforceable in a particular
jurisdiction, the restrictions automatically will be reformed to shorten their
duration, diminish their geographical area, or confine their proscribed
activities to the extent necessary (but only to that extent) to make the
restrictions valid and enforceable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision or clause of this Agreement shall not affect the continued validity or
enforceability of any other provision or clause in this Agreement, and this
Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if any invalid or unenforceable
provision or clause was omitted.

(j) The provisions in this Section 3 and Section 4 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the termination or cessation of Executive’s employment for
any reason.

4. Remedy at Law Insufficient. Executive acknowledges that damages at law will
be an insufficient remedy if Executive violates the terms of Section 3, and that
the Company would suffer a decrease in value and irreparable damage as a result
of such violation. Accordingly, on a violation of any of those covenants, the
Company, without excluding or limiting any other available remedy, shall be
entitled to the following remedies:

(a) Upon posting a bond of up to $10,000 and filing with a court of competent
jurisdiction an appropriate pleading and affidavit specifying each obligation
breached by Executive, automatic entry by a court having jurisdiction of an
order granting an injunction or specific performance compelling Executive to
comply with that obligation, without proof of monetary damage or an inadequate
remedy at law; and

(b) The recovery from Executive of all profit, remuneration, or other
consideration that Executive gains from breaching the covenant and all damages
that the Company suffers as a result of the breach; and

The foregoing remedies are cumulative to all other remedies afforded by law or
in equity, and the Company may exercise any such remedy concurrently,
independently, or successively.

5. Employment Status. This Agreement does not constitute an employment agreement
between the Company and Executive, but rather provides for the payment of
severance compensation to Executive on the termination of his employment with
the Company under the conditions described in this Agreement. This Agreement
does not guarantee the continued employment of Executive by the Company or the
payment of any other amount of compensation.

6. No Mitigation. Executive does not have any duty to seek or obtain other
employment after the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company,
whether voluntary or involuntary. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the
Company shall pay to Executive the Severance Compensation without reduction for
any compensation that Executive earns or could earn from other employment.

7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to its principles
of conflict of laws.

 

7

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

8. Venue. Executive and the Company (a) consent to the personal jurisdiction of
the state and federal courts having jurisdiction over Hillsborough County,
Florida, (b) stipulate that the proper, exclusive, and convenient venue for any
legal proceeding arising out of this Agreement is Hillsborough County, Florida,
and (c) waive any defense, whether asserted by a motion or pleading, that
Hillsborough County, Florida, is an improper or inconvenient venue.

9. Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Company, and may be assigned by the Company to any person or firm who may
succeed to the majority of the assets of the Company. This Agreement shall not
be assignable by Executive.

10. Notices. Any and all notices, designations, consents, offers, acceptance or
any other communications provided for herein shall be given in writing and shall
be deemed properly delivered if delivered in person or by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed in the case of the Company
to its registered agent or in the case of Executive to his last known address.

11. Entire Agreement.

(a) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the payment of severance compensation upon the occurrence of certain
events in connection with a Change of Control as defined herein and supersedes
any and all other agreements, either oral or in writing, among the parties
hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(b) This Agreement is not intended to supersede, terminate, alter, or modify any
of Executive’s rights or obligations under any stock option, restricted stock or
other equity program in which he participates; and Executive’s rights and
obligations under any such programs shall continue to be governed only by the
terms of those options, grants or programs.

(c) This Agreement is not intended to supersede, terminate, alter, or modify any
provision in Executive’s Employment Agreement; provided however that this
Agreement is intended to be mutually exclusive of the severance payment
provisions found in any such Employment Agreement such that if Executive is
entitled to severance compensation under such Employment Agreement, he shall not
be entitled to receive severance payments under both this Agreement and such
Employment Agreement. Rather, it is the parties’ intention that Executive shall
be entitled to receive the greater of (i) the severance payments provided for
under any such Employment Agreement, and (ii) the Severance Compensation under
this Agreement.

(d) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be considered and original copy of this Agreement, but all of which
together shall evidence only one agreement.

12. Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an
instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of each of the parties hereto. No
waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and
signed by the person or party to be charged.

 

8

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

13. Case and Gender. Wherever required by the context of this Agreement, the
singular or plural case and the masculine, feminine and neuter genders shall be
interchangeable.

14. Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are intended for descriptive
and reference purposes only and are not intended to affect the meaning of any
Section hereunder.

15. Arbitration. If any dispute arises between Executive and the Company with
respect to this Agreement, either party may elect (but is not obligated) to
submit the dispute to arbitration before a panel of arbitrators in accordance
with the Florida Arbitration Code by giving the other party a notice of
arbitration in accordance with Section 10 of this Agreement. If a party elects
to arbitrate a dispute, arbitration will be the sole and exclusive method of
resolving the dispute, the other party must arbitrate the dispute, and each
party will be barred from filing a lawsuit concerning the subject matter of the
arbitration, except to obtain an equitable remedy.

The arbitration panel will consist of one arbitrator, who will be a neutral
arbitrator selected by the agreement of one arbitrator selected by the Company
and a second selected by Executive, and the third neutral arbitrator selected by
agreement of the first two arbitrators. Each party shall select an arbitrator
and notify the other party of the selection within 15 days after the effective
date of the notice of arbitration and the two arbitrators selected by the
parties shall select the third arbitrator within 30 days after the effective
date of the notice of arbitration. A party who fails to select an arbitrator
within the prescribed 15-day period waives the right to have the two selected
arbitrators select an arbitrator to arbitrate the dispute, and the arbitrator
chosen by the other party will constitute the “arbitration panel” for purposes
of this Agreement.

Every arbitrator must be independent (not a relative of Executive or an officer,
director, employee, or shareholder of the Company, the Company or any
subsidiary) without any economic or financial interest of any kind in the
outcome of the arbitration. Each arbitrator’s conduct will be governed by the
Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes (1986) that has been
approved and recommended by the American Bar Association and the American
Arbitration Association.

Within 120 days after the effective date of the notice of arbitration, the
arbitrator who will arbitrate the dispute shall convene a hearing for the
dispute to be held on such date and at such time and place in Tampa, Florida, as
the arbitrator designates upon 60 days’ advance notice to Executive and the
Company. The arbitrator shall render his or her decision within 30 days after
the conclusion of the hearing. The decision of the arbitrator will be binding
and conclusive as to Executive and the Company and, upon the pleading of either
party, any court having jurisdiction may enter a judgment of any award rendered
in the arbitration, which may include an award of damages. The arbitrator shall
hear and decide the dispute based on the evidence produced, notwithstanding the
failure or refusal to appear by a party who has been duly notified of the date,
time, and place of the hearing.

16. No Jury Trial. EACH OF THE EXECUTIVE AND THE COMPANY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY,
AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT BETWEEN
EXECUTIVE AND THE COMPANY WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT.

 

9

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

17. Prevailing Party’s Costs and Expenses. In any arbitration or legal
proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the losing party shall reimburse the
prevailing party, on demand, for all costs incurred by the prevailing party in
enforcing, defending, or prosecuting any claim arising out of this Agreement,
including all fees, costs, and expenses of agents, experts, attorneys,
witnesses, arbitrators, and supersedes bonds, whether incurred before or after
demand or commencement of legal or arbitration proceedings, and whether incurred
pursuant to trial, appellate, mediation, arbitration, bankruptcy,
administrative, or judgment-execution proceedings.

18. COBRA. If permitted by law, following a Triggering Event, the Executive will
be entitled to elect COBRA continuation coverage for the Executive and his
eligible dependents who were covered under the Company’s health plans as of the
Triggering Event

19. Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the applicable
requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be construed and interpreted
in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding the preceding, the Company shall not be
liable to Executive or any other person if the Internal Revenue Service or any
court or other authority having jurisdiction over such matter determines for any
reason that any payments under this Agreement are subject to taxes, penalties or
interest as a result of failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

20. Delay of Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if
Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Code, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, no
payments (which are not otherwise exempt) may be made hereunder before the date
which is six months after Executive’s separation from service or, if earlier,
his death. Any amounts which would have otherwise been required to be paid
during such six months or, if earlier, until Executive’s death, shall be paid to
Executive in one lump sum cash payment on the first payroll date after the date
which is six months after Executive’s separation from service or, if earlier,
after Executive’s death. Any other payments scheduled to be made under this
Agreement shall be made and provided at the times otherwise designated in this
Agreement disregarding the delay of payment for the payments described in this
Section 20. Additionally, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
Executive will only be entitled to receive payment on termination of his
employment when the termination of employment qualifies as a “separation from
service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

21. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, subject to Section 3(i), such provision shall
be severed from the rest of this Agreement and the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be
affected or impaired thereby.
