     (a) At-Will Termination by Company.
The employment of Executive shall be "at-will" at all
times.  The Company may terminate Executive's employment with the

below.

     

     (b) Severance. Except in
situations where the employment of Executive is terminated For Cause, By Death
or By Disability (as defined in Section 4 below), in the event that the Company
terminates the employment of Executive at any time, Executive will be eligible
to receive an amount equal to twelve (12) months of the then-current Base Salary
of the Executive payable in the form of salary continuation.  Such
Severance shall be reduced by any remuneration paid to Executive because of
Executive's employment or self-employment during the severance
period.  Executive shall not be entitled to any severance payments if
Executive's employment is terminated For Cause, By Death or By Disability (as

diligently and professionally.  The Company may terminate Executive's
employment For Cause at any time, without any advance notice.  The
Company shall pay to Executive all compensation to which Executive is entitled
up through the date of termination, subject to any other rights or remedies of
Employer under law; and thereafter all obligations of the Company under this
Agreement shall cease.

     

      (b) By Death.
Executive's employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive's
death.  The Company shall pay to Executive's beneficiaries or estate,
as appropriate, any compensation then due and owing.  Thereafter all

the benefits of any life insurance plan or other applicable
benefits.

     

     (c) By Disability. If

responsibilities and functions of the position held by Executive by reason of
any physical or mental impairment for more than ninety (90) consecutive days or
more than one hundred and twenty days (120) in any twelve-month period, then, to
the extent permitted by law, the Company may terminate Executive's
employment.  The Company shall pay to Executive all compensation to
which Executive is entitled up through the date of termination, and thereafter
all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall
cease.  Nothing in this Section shall affect Executive's rights under
any disability plan in which Executive is a participant.

    


    5.
Termination By Executive

     

     (a) At-Will Termination by Executive.
Executive may terminate employment with the Company at any time for any
reason or no reason at all, upon four weeks' advance written notice. During such
notice period Executive shall continue to diligently perform all of Executive's
duties hereunder.  The Company shall have the option, in its sole
discretion, to make Executive's termination effective at any time prior to the
end of such notice period as long as the Company pays Executive all compensation

period. Thereafter all obligations of the Company shall cease.

     (b) Termination for Good Reason After
Change of Control. Executive's termination shall be for "Good Reason" if
Executive provides written notice to the Company of the Good Reason within
thirty (30) days of the event constituting Good Reason and provides the Company
with a period of twenty (20) days to cure the event constituting Good Reason and

in Executive's Base Salary, except for reductions that are comparable to
reductions generally applicable to similarly situated executives of the Company;

twenty-five (25) miles.  In such event Executive may terminate his
employment for Good Reason, in which case Executive will be eligible to receive
an amount equal to twelve (12) months of Executive's then-current Base Salary
payable in the form of salary continuation.  Such Severance shall be
reduced by any remuneration paid to Executive because of Executive's employment
or self-employment during the severance period.  Thereafter all
obligations of the Company or its successor under this Agreement shall
cease.

    


     (c) "Change of Control."
For purposes of this Agreement, "Change of Control"
