to the foregoing provisions, or the levy of any attachment or similar process thereupon shall be
null and void and without effect and shall relieve the Company of any and all liability hereunder.
This Agreement shall be assignable and transferable by the Company (but the Company shall not be
required to assign or transfer this Agreement) to any successor in interest without the consent of
Executive.



6.4 Complete Understanding. This Agreement constitutes the complete understanding

Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto.



6.6 Waiver. The waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement
by Executive shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by Executive.
The waiver by Executive of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Company shall not
operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the Company.



6.7 Venue, Jurisdiction, Etc. Executive hereby agrees that any suit, action or

Judicial Circuit, DuPage County, State of Illinois or in the District Court of the United States of
America for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, and in either case Executive
hereby submits to the jurisdiction of each such court. Executive hereby waives and agrees not to

6.8 Indemnification of Executive. Executive is hereby entitled to indemnification for
Executive’s acts or omissions in Executive’s capacity as an executive or officer of the Company or
member of the Company’s Board of Directors to the same extent as other members of the Senior
Executive Team and Board of Directors and in the manner provided by the Company’s bylaws. In
addition to, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall indemnify Executive within ten
(10) days of the Company receiving evidence satisfactory to the Company’s Board of Directors of a
liability or expense covered by section 6.8 of this Agreement (“Indemnification Claim”); provided,
the Company shall have the right to assume, at its own expense, the defence of any liability or
expense giving rise to the Indemnification Claim. The provisions of this Section 6.8 shall survive
the termination of this Agreement for any reason.



6.9 Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Company shall maintain adequate
Directors and Officers liability insurance coverage, which shall include Executive in his capacity
as an officer and member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The adequacy of the directors and
officers liability insurance coverage shall be determined annually by the Board of Directors in its
reasonable discretion.




6.10 Tax Provisions.




(a) Compliance With Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent
applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of section 409A of
the Code, so as to prevent the inclusion in gross income of any amounts payable or benefits
provided hereunder in a taxable year that is prior to the taxable year or years in which
such amounts or benefits would otherwise actually be distributed, provided or otherwise made
available to Executive. This Agreement shall be construed, administered, and governed in a
manner consistent with this intent. Any provision that would cause any amount payable or
benefit provided under this Agreement to be includable in the gross income of Executive
under Code section 409A(a)(1) shall have no force and effect unless and until amended to
cause such amount or benefit to not be so includable (which amendment shall be mutually
agreed upon by the parties in good faith and may be retroactive to the extent permitted by
Code section 409A). In particular, to the extent Executive becomes entitled to receive a
payment or a benefit upon an event that does not constitute a permitted distribution event
under Code section 409A(a)(2), then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, such payment or benefit will be made or provided to Executive on the earlier of
(i)the date which is 6 months after the effective date of Executive’s separation from
service with Company, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. Any reference in this Agreement
to Code section 409A shall also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any
other guidance, promulgated
with respect to such section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue
Service.


 


14









 






(b) Compliance With Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if the Company reasonably anticipates that the deduction of any
payment to Executive hereunder will be limited or eliminated by the application of Code
section 162(m), which generally limits the deduction of compensation paid by public
corporations in excess of $1 million annually to certain executives, the payment of such
amount shall be delayed until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates
that the deduction of the payment would not be limited or eliminated by the application of
Code section 162(m).




(c) Excise Taxes Under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. Anything in this
Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that
Executive shall become entitled to payments and/or benefits provided by this Agreement or
any other amounts in the “nature of compensation” (whether pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company or any affiliate, any
person whose actions result in a change of ownership or effective control of the Company
covered by section 280G(b)(2) of the Code or any person affiliated with the Company or such
person) as a result of such change in ownership or effective control of the Company (a
“Payment”) that would be subject to the excise tax imposed by section 4999 or any
interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise
tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to
as the “Excise Tax”), then Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a
“Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by Executive of all taxes
(including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without
limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto)
and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the
Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments.



6.11 Legal Fees. Executive shall be entitled to be reimbursed for reasonable legal
fees and expenses Executive incurs in the negotiation of this Agreement, up to a maximum of Ten
Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000) and for the good faith enforcement of any of the terms of
this Agreement. Reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred for the good faith enforcement of any
of the terms of this Agreement shall be reimbursed on an “as incurred” basis; provided the Company
shall have the right to review documentation from Executive’s legal counsel sufficient to establish
the reasonableness and appropriateness of the claimed reimbursement. The review contemplated by the
prior sentence may be accomplished through a review process overseen by a neutral third party with
such process and neutral third party agreed to by Executive and the Company and paid for by the
Company, and the parties shall stipulate that the third party review process will not have an
adverse effect on the ability of either the Executive or the Company to maintain any
attorney-client communication or work product privilege.



6.12 Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be for any reason invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining portion or portions shall nevertheless be valid, enforceable and
carried into effect.

injunctive relief (including, but not limited to, compensatory damages, liquidated damages,
punitive damages, back pay, front pay, attorneys’ fees, and reinstatement to employment), from
Releasees, or any of them, in any administrative, arbitral, judicial or other action brought by or

9. Covenant Not to Sue. In addition to all other obligations contained in this
Agreement, Executive agrees that Executive will not initiate, bring or prosecute any suit or action

agreement between Executive and the Company as well as the Illinois Trade Secrets Act, any
other Illinois statute and Illinois common law.




(b) Executive shall keep confidential the circumstances surrounding the termination of
Executive’s employment with the Company, as well as the existence of this Agreement and its

Opportunity Commission, the Illinois Human Rights Commission, or
any other federal, state or local fair employment practices agency), unless written consent
is given by the Company’s President, or unless required to comply with any federal, state or
local law, rule or order. However, this paragraph will not prohibit Executive from
disclosing the terms of this Agreement to Executive’s attorneys, accountants or other tax
consultants as necessary for the purpose of securing their professional advice, or in
connection with any suit or action alleging a breach of this Agreement.




(c) Executive agrees that Executive will not access or attempt to access, directly or
indirectly, by any matter whatsoever, the Company’s computer network, including without

 _____, 200_, which Executive acknowledges is the date on which
Executive received a copy of this Agreement (if not earlier). Executive agrees that any changes or
modifications (material or otherwise) made to this Agreement prior to its execution by Executive
shall not restart the twenty-one (21) day consideration period.



16. Revocation Period. Executive understands that Executive has the right to revoke
this Agreement at any time within seven (7) days after Executive signs it and that the Agreement

Executive’s position as an officer and director of the Company effective no later than the
