|(a)	Stock Options.Pursuant to the terms of a separate Stock Option Agreement, the Executive shall be granted such number of stock options under the Vision 21 Stock Incentive Plan as the Board of Directors of Vision 21 shall deem appropriate.

|(2)If a "Change in Corporate Control" as described in Section 6 occurs, whether or not the Executive's employment with the Company is terminated following the Change in Corporate Control, the Company shall be obligated to make a lump sum payment upon such Change in Corporate Control to the Executive in an amount equal to the sum of the following: (i) the amount of the Executive's annual base salary paid during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the Change in Corporate Control, multiplied by two (2); and (ii) the amount of the Covenant Compliance Bonus and Performance Bonus, if any, earned under Section 3 for the fiscal year immediately preceding the Change in Corporate Control (the "Change in Corporate Control Payment"). If the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 5 (a) (1) at any time subsequent to the occurrence of a Change in Corporate Control pursuant to Section 6 (b) (1), (2) or (4), the Company shall not be obligated to make the severance payments to the Executive pursuant to Section 5 (a) (1), provided that the Change in Corporate Control Payment was made to the Executive upon the Change in Corporate Control. If the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 5 (a) (1) at any time subsequent to the occurrence of a Change in Corporate Control pursuant to Section 6 (b) (3), the Company shall be obligated to make the severance payments to the Executive pursuant to Section 5 (a) (1) in accordance with its terms.                                                                                                                                                                               
|For purposes of this Section 5 (a) (1) and (2), if the termination or Change in Corporate Control occurs prior to August 1, 2001, the annual base salary amount used to calculate the severance payments due to the Executive hereunder shall be the annual base salary in effect on the Effective Date.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
|In addition to the other payments to be made to Executive in accordance with this Section 5 (a) (1) and (2), the Executive shall also receive such non-forfeitable benefits already earned and payable to him under the terms of any deferred compensation, incentive or other benefit plan maintained by the Company, payable in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
|If the Company should, during the term of this Agreement, require the Executive to relocate his business office outside of the central New Jersey area, the Executive shall have the right, within sixty (60) days following this request, to resign from employment and have such resignation be deemed to be an involuntary termination triggering the severance provisions of this Section 5 (a).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
|If the Company defaults in its obligation to make any severance payments required to be paid under Section 5 (a) (1) or (2) or under Section 2: (i) the provisions of Section 10 shall be inoperable; (ii) the entire unpaid balance of the severance payments shall become immediately due and payable; and (iii) if the Executive prevails in any suit commenced by the Executive to collect such severance payments, all costs and expenses of such suit incurred by the Executive, including reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
|(b)	Disability. The Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement, if the Board of Directors determines that the Executive has been unable to attend to his duties for at least ninety (90) days because of a medically diagnosable physical or mental condition, and has received a written opinion from a physician acceptable to the Board that such condition prevents the Executive from resuming full performance of his duties and is likely to continue for an indefinite period. Upon such termination, the Company shall pay to Executive a monthly disability benefit equal to one twenty-fourth (1/24th) of his current annual base salary at the time he became permanently disabled. Payment of such disability benefit shall commence on the last day of the month following the date of the termination by reason of permanent disability and cease with the earliest of (i) the month in which the Executive returns to active employment, either with the Company or otherwise, (ii) the end of the Initial Term of this Agreement, or the current renewal term, as the case may be, or (iii) the twenty-fourth month after the date of the termination. Any amounts payable under this Section 5 (b) shall be reduced by any amounts paid to the Executive under any long-term disability plan or other disability program or insurance policies maintained or provided by the Company.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|(c)	Termination for Cause.

|The Executive acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to fully compensate the Company for damages resulting from the breach or threatened breach of the covenants set forth in Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement and accordingly agrees that the Company shall be entitled to temporary and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, to enforce such provisions in any action or proceeding instituted in any United States District Court or in any State court having subject matter jurisdiction.
