         The Executive is authorized to incur reasonable expenses in carrying

the case may be, shall be entitled to the following:

                  (i) a lump sum payment equal to 60% of Base Salary that would

                  (i) Disability benefits provided in accordance with the
long-term disability program in effect for senior executives at the Company;

                  (ii) Base Salary through the end of the month in which

<PAGE>

plans or programs in which he was participating on the date of the termination
of his employment for a period of 24 months following termination of employment
provided that if the Company's plans do not permit continuation of the
Executive's participation following his termination, the Company shall provide
the Executive with an amount which, after taxes, is sufficient for him to
purchase equivalent benefits.

         In no event shall a termination of the Executive's employment for
Disability occur until the Party terminating his employment gives written notice
to the other Party in accordance with Section 22 below.

         (c) TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY FOR CAUSE.

                  (i) A termination for Cause shall not take effect unless the
provisions of this subclause (i) are complied with. The Executive shall be given
written notice by the Board of the intention to terminate him for Cause, such
notice (A) to state in detail the particular act or acts or failure or failures
to act that constitute the grounds on which the proposed termination for Cause
is based and (B) to be given within 60 days of the Board learning of such act or
acts or failure or failures to act. In the event the proposed termination is
based on subclause (ii) of Section 1(d) above, the Executive shall have ten
calendar days after the date that such written notice has been given to the
Executive in which to cure such conduct. If he fails to cure such conduct, the
Executive shall then be entitled to a hearing before the Board, and, thereafter,
upon a determination by affirmative vote of no fewer than three-quarters of the
members of the Board that Cause exists he shall be terminated for Cause.

                  (ii) In the event the Company terminates the Executive's
employment for Cause:

                           (A) he shall be entitled to Base Salary through the
date of the termination; and

                           (B) all outstanding options which are not then
exercisable shall be forfeited; exercisable options shall remain exercisable
until the earlier of the ninetieth day after the date of termination or the
originally scheduled expiration date of the options.

         (d) TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE, CONSTRUCTIVE TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE
OR NON-RENEWAL BY THE Company.

         In the event the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company
without Cause, other than due to Disability or death, there is a Constructive
Termination without Cause or the Company gives notice of non-renewal pursuant to
Section 2 above, the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

                  (i) Base Salary through the date of termination;

                                       8
<PAGE>

                  (ii) pro-rata Annual Incentive Award for the year of
termination, award based on the target bonus for such year, payable promptly
following such termination;

                  (iii) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to the greater of
(A) the Executive's Base Salary for the remainder of the term (without regard to
early termination thereof) or (B) two times the Executive's Base Salary,
determined as provided in the last paragraph of this Section 11(d), payable
promptly following such termination;

                  (iv) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to the greater of
(A) the Executive's Base Salary for the remainder of the term (without regard to
early termination thereof), multiplied by the applicable target bonus
opportunity percentage or (B) two times the Executive's Annual Incentive Award,
based on the target bonus for the year of termination, payable promptly
following such termination;

                  (v) all outstanding options shall become fully vested and
exercisable and shall remain exercisable through the end of their originally
scheduled term; and

                  (vi) continued participation in all medical, dental, vision
and hospitalization insurance coverage for himself, his spouse and eligible
dependents and in all other employee and senior-level executive benefit plans or
programs in which he was participating on the date of the termination of his
employment for a period equal to the greater of (A) the remainder of the term or
(B) 24 months following termination of employment; provided, however, that if
the Executive becomes re-employed with another employer and is eligible to
receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer-provided plan,
the medical and other welfare benefits described above shall be secondary to
those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of
eligibility.

In the event the Company's plans do not permit continuation of the Executive's
participation following his termination, the Company shall provide the Executive
with an amount which, after taxes, is sufficient for him to purchase equivalent
benefits.

         For purposes of Section 11(d)(iv) and (v) above, Base Salary shall be
determined by the Base Salary at the annualized rate in effect on the date of
termination of the Executive's employment (subject to the last sentence of this
paragraph) adjusted for any scheduled increase pursuant to Section 4 above. Such
adjustment shall be made as follows: the aggregate scheduled remaining salary
payments for the remaining Term of Employment (without regard to early
termination thereof) shall be divided by the remaining months of the Term of
Employment (without regard to early termination thereof) and the resulting
monthly rate shall be multiplied by 12. For purposes of the first sentence of
this paragraph, if, prior to the termination of the Executive's employment
pursuant to this Section 11(d), the Base Salary has been reduced, the Base
Salary in effect on the date of termination of the Executive's employment shall
be deemed to be the highest Base Salary in effect prior to any such reduction.

                                       9
<PAGE>

         (e)      VOLUNTARY TERMINATION. A termination of employment by the
Executive on his own initiative, other than a termination due to death or
Disability or a Constructive Termination without Cause, shall have the same
consequences as provided in Section 11(c)(ii) for a termination for Cause. A
voluntary termination under this Section 11(e) shall be effective 30 calendar
days after prior written notice is received by the Company, unless the Company
elects to make it effective earlier.

         (f)      CONSEQUENCES OF A CHANGE IN CONTROL.

                  Upon a Change in Control, all amounts, entitlements or
benefits in which the Executive is not yet vested shall become fully vested
including, without limitation, all outstanding options which shall remain
exercisable through the end of their regularly scheduled term.

                  In the event that any payment or benefit made or provided to
or for the benefit of the Executive in connection with this Agreement, the
Executive's employment with the Company, or the termination thereof (a
"Payment") is determined to be subject to any excise tax ("Excise Tax") imposed
by Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor to such Section), the Company
shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time any Excise Tax is payable with
respect to such Payment (through withholding or otherwise), an additional amount
which, after the imposition of all income, employment, excise and other taxes,
penalties and interest thereon, is equal to the sum of (i) the Excise Tax on
such Payment plus (ii) any penalty and interest assessments associated with such
Excise Tax. The determination of whether any Payment is subject to an Excise Tax
and, if so, the amount to be paid by the Company to the Executive and the time
of payment shall be made by an independent auditor (the "Auditor") selected
jointly by the Parties and paid by the Company. Unless the Executive agrees
otherwise in writing, the Auditor shall be a nationally recognized United States
public accounting firm that has not, during the two years preceding the date of
its selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company or any of its
Affiliates. If the Parties cannot agree on the firm to serve as the Auditor,
then the Parties shall each select one accounting firm and those two firms shall
jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor.

         (g)      OTHER TERMINATION BENEFITS.  In the case of any of the
foregoing terminations, the Executive or his estate shall also be entitled to:

                  (i) the balance of any incentive awards due for performance
periods which have been completed, but which have not yet been paid (subject to
deferral of payments to the extent the Executive has elected, irrevocably, such
deferral);

                  (ii) any expense reimbursements due the Executive; and

                  (iii) other benefits, including senior level executive
benefits, if any, in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the
Company.

                                       10
<PAGE>
         (h) NO MITIGATION; NO OFFSET. In the event of any termination of
employment under this Section 11, the Executive shall be under no obligation to
seek other employment and there shall be no offset against amounts due the
Executive under this Agreement on account of any claims asserted by the Company
or any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that he may
obtain.

                  (i) NATURE OF PAYMENTS. Any amounts due under this Section 11
are in the nature of severance payments considered to be reasonable by the
Company and are not in the nature of a penalty.

12.      CONFIDENTIALITY; NON-COMPETITION.

         (a) The Executive agrees that he will not, at any time during the Term
of Employment or thereafter, disclose or use any proprietary or confidential
information of the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company,
obtained during the course of his employment, except as required in the course
of such employment or with the written permission of the Company or, as
applicable, any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company or as may be required by
law, provided that, if the Executive receives legal process with regard to
disclosure of such information, he shall promptly notify the Company and
cooperate with the Company in seeking a protective order. For this purpose,
"proprietary or confidential information" shall include "know how," trade
secrets, customer lists, pricing policies, operational methods, technical
processes, formulae, inventions, research projects or other information
regarding the financial and business affairs of the Company that have not been
disclosed to the public or within the business community (other than due to a
breach by the Executive of this Section 12).

         (b) The Executive agrees that at the time of the termination of his
employment with the Company, whether at the instance of the Executive or the
Company, and regardless of the reasons therefor, he will deliver to the Company,
and not keep or deliver to anyone else, any and all notes, files, memoranda,
papers and, in general, any and all physical matter containing information,
including any and all documents significant to the conduct of the business of
the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company which are in his
possession, except for any documents for which the Company or any subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company has given written consent to removal at the time of the
termination of the Executive's employment and his personal rolodex, personal

         (c) During the Term, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly,
on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, enter the employ
of, or render any services to, any person, firm or corporation engaged in any
business competitive with the business then being conducted by the Company or
any of its then subsidiaries or affiliates; the Executive shall not engage in
such business on the Executive's own account; and the Executive shall not become
interested in any such business, directly or indirectly, as an individual,
partner, shareholder, director, officer, principal, agent, employee, trustee,
consultant, or in any other relationship or capacity; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
nothing contained in this Section 12(c) shall be deemed to


                                       11

prohibit the Executive from acquiring, solely as an investment, up to five
percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any public
corporation. In addition, the Executive shall, at all times, be subject to the
noncompetition, confidentiality and ownership of inventions covenants required
pursuant to the Management Incentive Plan.

         (d) The Executive agrees that the Company's remedies at law would be
inadequate in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section 12;
accordingly, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to its rights at law, to
seek an injunction and other equitable relief without the need to post a bond.

13.      RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES.

         Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall
be resolved by binding arbitration, to be held in Manhattan, in accordance with
the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon
the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof. Each Party shall bear his or its own costs of the
arbitration or litigation, except that the Company shall bear all such costs if
the Executive prevails in such arbitration or litigation on any material issue.

14.      INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a) The Company agrees that if the Executive is made a party, or is
threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or is or
was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, member,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans,
whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executive's alleged action in
an official capacity while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or
agent, the Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to
the fullest extent legally permitted or authorized by the Company's certificate
of incorporation or bylaws or resolutions of the Company's Board of Directors
or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Delaware, against all cost, expense,
liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney's fees, judgments,
fines, ERISA excise taxes or other liabilities or penalties and amounts paid or
to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in
connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to the
Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member, employee or agent of
the Company or other entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive's
heirs, executors and administrators. The Company shall advance to the Executive
all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a
Proceeding within 20 calendar days after receipt by the Company of a written
request for such advance. Such request shall include an undertaking by the
Executive to repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be
determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and
expenses; provided that the amount of such obligation to repay shall be limited
to the after-tax amount of any such advance except to the


                                       12
<PAGE>

extent the Executive is able to offset such taxes incurred on the advance by the
tax benefit, if any, attributable to a deduction for the repayment.

         (b) Neither the failure of the Company (including its board of
directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to have made a
determination prior to the commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of
amounts claimed by the Executive under Section 14(a) above that indemnification
of the Executive is proper because he has met the applicable standard of
conduct, nor a determination by the Company (including its board of directors,
independent legal counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met such
applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption in any judicial
proceeding that the Executive has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

         (c) The Company agrees to continue and maintain a directors' and
officers' liability insurance policy covering the Executive in an amount of no
less than $50 million.

15.      ASSIGNABILITY; BINDING NATURE.

         This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of the Executive)
and assigns. Rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be
assigned or transferred by the Company pursuant to a merger or consolidation in
which the Company is not the continuing entity, or the sale or liquidation of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided that the
assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities,
obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either
contractually or as a matter of law. The Company further agrees that, in the
event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in the preceding sentence,
it shall take whatever action it reasonably can in order to cause such assignee
or transferee to expressly assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the
Company hereunder. No rights or obligations of the Executive under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive other than his rights
to compensation and benefits, which may be transferred only by will or operation
of law.

16.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

         This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between
the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements, including without limitation the 1998 Agreement, understandings,
discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the
Parties with respect thereto.

17.      AMENDMENT OR WAIVER.

         No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is
agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized officer of
the Company. No waiver by either Party of any breach by the other Party of any
condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other
Party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision
at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and
signed by the Executive or an authorized officer of the Company, as the case may
be.

18.      SEVERABILITY.

         In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part,
the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall
remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law so as to
achieve the purposes of this Agreement.

19.      SURVIVORSHIP.

         Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the
respective rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall survive any
termination of the Executive's employment. This Agreement itself (as
distinguished from the Executive's employment) may not be terminated by either
Party without the written consent of the other Party. Upon the expiration of the
term of the Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the Parties
shall survive such expiration to the extent necessary to carry out the
intentions of the Parties as embodied in the rights (such as vested rights) and
obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.

20.      REFERENCES.

         In the event of the Executive's death or a judicial determination of
his incompetence, reference in this Agreement to the Executive shall be deemed,
where appropriate, to refer to his beneficiary, estate or other legal
representative.

21.      GOVERNING LAW.

         This Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the laws of
Delaware without reference to principles of conflict of laws.
