    At-Will Employment.The Executive and the Company agree that Executives employment with the Company is, and
shall at all times during the Executives employment hereunder be, at-will employment.
The Company may terminate the Executives employment at any time for any reason, with or
without Cause, by providing thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Executive. The
Executive may terminate his employment with the Company by providing thirty (30) days
prior written notice to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may relieve
the Executive of his duties immediately upon, or at any time during the thirty (30)-day
period following, the delivery or receipt of the written termination notice provided by the
Company or the Executive hereunder. No provision of this Restated Agreement shall be
construed as conferring upon the Executive a right to continue as an employee of the
Company, and the at-will relationship between the Executive and the Company may not be
altered except as agreed by the Executive and the Company in writing.3.
    
    Compensation.3.1
    
    Base Salary.The Executives Base Salary for the 2008 fiscal year shall be at a rate of
$325,000 per year, paid in accordance with the Companys regular payroll practices in
effect from time to time, but not less frequently than monthly. The Executives Base
Salary shall be reviewed annually and may be adjusted by the Companys Board of
Directors (the Board).As used in this Restated Agreement, Base Salaryshall mean
the Executives annual rate of Base Salary as adjusted from time to time.3.2
    
    Annual Bonus.
 3.2.1
    
    While employed hereunder, the Executive shall be eligible for an annual
incentive bonus (Annual Bonus)of up to eighty-five percent (85%) of his Base Salary,
based upon the achievement of performance objectives established by the
Compensation Committee of the Board (the Compensation Committee)for an
annual performance period coterminous with the Companys fiscal year.3.2.2
    
    At the time the Compensation Committee establishes the Annual Bonus potential
for the performance period, the Compensation Committee may determine that up
to 50% of the Annual Bonus earned by the Executive for that performance period
shall be deferred and shall vest and be paid out in successive equal annual
installments upon the Executives completion of each year of continued
employment with the Company over a period of years (not to exceed three years)
measured from the last day of the performance period to which that Annual Bonus
relates (the Deferral Period).The deferred portion of each Annual Bonus
shall accrue interest at prime, as such rate is set forth in The Wall Street
Journal
from time to time, during the Deferral Period, and the unpaid deferred portion of
each Annual Bonus, together with such accrued interest, shall immediately vest in
the event (i) the Executive terminates employment with Good Reason (as defined
in Section 7.2.1) or (ii) the Executive is terminated by the Company other than for

by reason of death or Disability (as defined in Section 5.1) or (iv) the
Executives employment terminates for any reason following a Change in Control or
Corporate Transaction. The deferred portion of each Annual Bonus shall be forfeited
to the extent the Executives employment terminates for any other reason (or under
any other circumstances) prior to vesting in that portion. The deferred portion of
each Annual Bonus which vests on an accelerated basis shall be paid to the
Executive following his Separation from Service, in accordance with the payment
provisions of this Restated Agreement governing the particular circumstances under
which Executive incurs such Separation from Service; provided, however,that any
such accelerated vesting and payment of the deferred portion of each Annual Bonus
shall be subject to the Executives execution and delivery of an effective release
and non-disparagement agreement as required under the terms of this Restated
Agreement.
 3.2.3
    
    The Compensation Committee may establish different performance objectives or
different target levels for each Annual Bonus opportunity provided the Executive
hereunder. In addition, the maximum level of such Annual Bonus as a percentage
of Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and
may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee, including (without limitation)
an adjustment to increase the maximum level of Annual Bonus as a percentage of
Base Salary.3.2.4
    
    The portion of any bonus earned by the Executive for a particular fiscal year
performance period and not deferred pursuant to Section 3.2.2 shall be paid by the
15th day of the third calendar month following the close of that fiscal year or as
soon thereafter as administratively practicable, but in no event shall such payment
be made prior to the first business day of the fiscal year next succeeding the fiscal
year for which that bonus is earned or later than the last day of that succeeding
fiscal year.

    Equity Compensation.
 3.3.1
    
    Future Grants.In addition to the stock options previously granted to the
Executive, the Executive shall be eligible for periodic grants of stock options or
other equity awards under the Companys equity award program, subject to the
Executives continued employment hereunder. The term, exercise price (if
applicable), vesting period, any post-employment provisions (including post-
employment exercise periods) and the remaining provisions of each stock option
or other equity award granted pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall, subject to the
express provisions of this Restated Agreement, be determined by the
Compensation Committee at the time of grant.3.3.2
    
    Acceleration and Extension.Notwithstanding Section 3.3.1, if the
Executives employment is terminated (i) by the Company for any reason other than for Cause
(as defined in Section 6.1.1) or (ii) by the Executive with Good Reason (as
defined in Section 7.2.1) or (iii) on account of death or Disability, then each
stock

option and other equity award granted on or after July 21, 2003 shall thereupon
vest as to an additional 25% of the shares of stock subject thereto (or such lesser
percentage as to make the award 100% vested). Further, in the event of a Change of
Control (as defined in Section 8.1.1) or a Corporate Transaction (as defined in
Section 8.1.2), all of the options or other equity awards described in the
preceding sentence shall immediately vest in full. To the extent that the equity
awards described in this Section 3.3.2 are stock options that have vested in
accordance with their normal vesting terms or that otherwise vest on an accelerated
basis in accordance with this Section 3.3.2, the period for which such stock
options shall remain exercisable for the vested option shares shall be extended
until a date at least one year and ninety (90) days after the termination of the
Executives employment under the circumstance described in clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) of this Section 3.3.2 or the termination of the Executives employment under
any circumstances following a Change of Control or a Corporate Transaction (or
until such later date as may be specified in the award agreement), but in no event
will such options be exercisable after the expiration of their original ten-year
(or shorter) maximum terms. Each of the Executives stock options granted prior to
July 21, 2003 shall be amended to add the foregoing extended exercise provisions at
such time, if any, that the Compensation Committee determines, in its sole
discretion, that such amendment and the related accounting charges would not in any
war adversely affect, when relevant, the Companys condition (financial or
otherwise), financial statements, earnings, earnings per share or other relevant
Company information.

    Benefit Limit.8.3.1
    
    In the event any payments or benefits under this Restated Agreement would
otherwise constitute a parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code, then
those payments and benefits shall be subject to reduction to the extent necessary
to assure that the payments and benefits provided the Executive under this
Restated Agreement will be limited to the greaterof (i) the amount of payments
and benefits which can be provided without triggering a parachute payment under
Code Section 280G or (ii) the maximum dollar amount of payments and benefits
which can be provided under this Restated Agreement so as to provide the
Executive with the greatest after-tax amount of such payments and benefits after
taking into account any excise tax the Executive may incur under Code Section
4999 with respect to those payments and benefits and any other benefits or
payments to which the Executive may be entitled in connection with any change
in control or ownership of the Company or the subsequent termination of his
employment.8.3.2
    
    The calculations required under Section 8.3.1 shall be made by an independent
registered public accounting firm (the Auditor)jointly selected by the
Executive and the Company, and the fees of such Auditor shall be paid by the
Company. If the Executive and the Company cannot agree on the firm to serve as
the Auditor, then they shall each select one registered public accounting firm, and
those two firms shall jointly select the registered public accounting firm to serve
as the Auditor. Unless the Executive agrees otherwise in writing, the Auditor
shall be a nationally recognized United States registered 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.8.3.3
    
    If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting a parachute payment is
required
pursuant to Section 8.3.1, then such reduction shall be effected in the following
order: first, the Executives salary continuation payments under this Restated
Agreement shall be reduced (with such reduction to be applied pro-rata to each
payment), then the amount of the Executives deferred Annual Bonuses which
vest and become payable on an accelerated basis shall be reduced (with such
reduction to be applied pro-rata to each such deferred amount), and finally the
accelerated vesting of the Executives stock options and other equity awards shall
be reduced (based on the amount of the parachute payment calculated for each
such option or award in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under Code
Section 280G), with such reduction to occur in the same chronological order in
which those options and awards were granted.

    Separation from Service.

##### 



not more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of services the Executive rendered
in Employee status during the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) months. Any such
determination as to Separation from Service, however, shall be made in accordance with the
applicable standards of the Treasury Regulations issued under Code
Section 409A. For
purposes of determining whether the Executive has incurred a Separation from Service, the
Executive will be deemed to continue in Employee status for so long as he remains in the
employ of one or more members of the Employer Group, subject to the control and direction
of the employer entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and method of
performance. Employer Group means the Company and any other corporation or business
controlled by, controlling or under common control with, the Company as determined in
accordance with Sections 414(b) and (c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations
thereunder, except that in applying Sections 1563(a)(l), (2) and (3) for purposes of
determining the controlled group of corporations under Section 414(b), the phrase at least
50 percent shall be used instead of at least 80 percent each place the latter phrase
appears in such sections, and in applying Section 1.414(c)-2 of the Treasury Regulations
for purposes of determining trades or businesses that are under common control for purposes
of Section 414(c), the phrase at least 50 percent shall be used instead of at least 80
percent each place the latter phrase appears in Section 1.414(c)-2 of the Treasury
Regulations. In addition to the foregoing, a Separation from Service will not be deemed to
have occurred while the Executive is on a sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if
the period of such leave does not exceed six (6) months or any longer period for which the
Executive is provided with a right to reemployment with the Corporation by either statute
or contract; provided, however,that in the event of a leave of absence due to any
medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in
death or to last for a continuous period of not less than six (6) months and that causes
the Executive to be unable to perform his duties as an Employee, no Separation from Service
shall be deemed to occur during the first twenty-nine (29) months of such leave. If the
period of leave exceeds six (6) months (or twenty-nine (29) months in the event of
disability as indicated above) and the Executive is not provided with a right to
reemployment by either statute or contract, then the Executive will be deemed to have
Separated from Service on the first day immediately following the expiration of the
applicable six (6)-month or twenty-nine (29)-month period.10.
    
    Delayed Commencement Date for Payments and Benefits.10.1
    
    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Restated Agreement, no payments or
benefits to which the Executive becomes entitled under Sections 5.2, 6.1.2, 6.2, 7.1, 7.2.2 or
8.2 of this Restated Agreement in connection with his Separation from Service (other than the
reimbursement of health care coverage costs and premiums payments during the applicable period
of COBRA coverage) shall be made or paid to the Executive prior to the earlierof (i) the
first business day of the seventh month following the date of the Executives Separation from
Service with the Company or (ii) the date of the Executives death (the Hold-Back Period),
if the Executive is deemed at the time of such Separation from Service a specified employee
within the meaning of that term under Section 409A of the Code and such delayed commencement
is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section
409A(a)(2). Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, all payments deferred
pursuant to this Section
 16

##### 



10 shall be paid in a lump sum to the Executive, and any remaining payments due under this
Restated Agreement shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for
them herein.10.2
    
    To the extent the payment of any cash amounts to which the
Executive becomes entitled under Sections 5.2, 6.1.2, 6.2.2, 7.1, 7.2.2 or 8.2 of this Restated Agreement is deferred
pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.1, then the Executive shall be entitled to interest
on those cash amounts, for the period the payment of such amounts is so deferred, with
such interest to accrue at the prime rate in effect from time to time during that period and
to be paid in a lump sum upon the expiration of the applicable Hold-Back Period.10.3
    
    The cash payments and each of the other benefits to which
Executive becomes entitled in accordance with Section 5.2, 6.2.2, 7.2.2 or 8.2 of this Restated Agreement shall be
treated as a right to a series of separate payments and benefits for purposes of Section
409A of the Code,11.
    
    Non-Competition.The Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of
the Company, the amount of sensitive and confidential information involved in the discharge
of the Executives position as Senior Vice President, Finance, and Chief Financial Officer,
and the harm to the Company that would result if such knowledge or expertise was disclosed
or made available to a competitor, and accordingly agrees that during the entire period that
he is employed by the Company, he shall not, directly or indirectly in any manner or
capacity (e.g., as an advisor, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, shareholder,
employee, member of any association or otherwise) engage in, work for, consult, provide
advice or assistance or otherwise participate in any activity that is competitive with the
business of the Company. The Executive further agrees that during such period he will not
assist or encourage any other person in carrying out any activity that would be prohibited
by the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 if such activity were carried out by the
Executive and, in particular, the Executive agrees that he will not induce any employee of
the Company to carry out any such activity; provided, however,that the beneficial
ownership by the Executive, either individually or as a member of a group, as such terms
are used in Rule 13d of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act, of not
more than one percent (1%) of the voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not be
a violation of this Restated Agreement. It is further expressly agreed that the Company will
or would suffer irreparable injury if the Executive were to compete with the Company or any
subsidiary or affiliate of the Company in violation of this Restated Agreement and that the
Company would by reason of such competition be entitled to injunctive relief in a court of
appropriate jurisdiction, and the Executive further consents and stipulates to the entry of
such injunctive relief in such a court prohibiting the Executive from competing with the
Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company in violation of this Restated
Agreement. The Executive further agrees that his continued compliance with the foregoing
provisions of this Section 11 following his termination of employment with the Company shall
be a condition precedent to his entitlement to any severance benefits to be provided under
this Restated Agreement. Accordingly, in the event that the Executive breaches the
provisions of this Section 11 following his termination of employment with
 17

the Company, the Executive shall no longer have the right to receive any salary
continuation payments under Section 6.2.2, 7.2.2 or 8.2, whichever is applicable, in excess
of the greater of (i) six (6) months of such salary continuation payments or (ii) the
actual salary continuation payments made to date (with such limited salary continuation
payments to serve as the consideration for his requisite Release), shall immediately
terminate, any stock options or other equity awards outstanding at the time of such breach
shall, to the extent those options or awards vested on an accelerated basis pursuant to
Section 3.3.2, immediately terminate and cease to be outstanding or exercisable, and the
extension of the post-termination exercise period provided for the Executives outstanding
stock options pursuant to Section 3.3.2 shall be immediately cancelled, whether or not
those outstanding options vested on an accelerated basis.12.
    
    Confidentiality and Treatment of Inventions.12.1
    
    Confidentiality.The Executive will not at any
time (whether during or after his employment with the Company), other than in the course of his duties hereunder or
unless compelled by lawful process, disclose or use for his own benefit or purposes or the
benefit or purposes of any other person, firm, partnership, joint venture, association,
corporation or other business organization, entity or enterprise other than an entity within
the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, any trade secrets, or other
confidential data or information relating to customers, development programs, costs,
marketing, trading, investment, sales activities, promotion, credit and financial data,
financing methods, or plans of any entity within the Company or any subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to information that
is generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of the Executives
breach of this covenant. The Executive agrees that upon termination of his, employment
with the Company for any reason, he will return to the Company immediately all
memoranda, books, papers, software, plans, information, letters and other data, and all
copies thereof or therefrom, in any way relating to the business of any entity within the
Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, except that he may retain
personal notes, notebooks and diaries that do not contain confidential information of the
type described in the preceding sentence. The Executive further agrees that he will not
retain or use for his account at any time any trade names, trademark or other proprietary
business designation used or owned in connection with the business of any entity within
the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company.12.2
    
    Treatment of Inventions.
 12.2.1
    
    Prior Inventions.The Executive understands and acknowledges that he does not have
any right or claim to any invention, idea, process, formula, discovery, technical
information, trade secret, design, computer program, proprietary information,
copyright, patent or other such item or matter (together, any Invention), including
without limitation any Invention made prior to his employment with the Company. The
Executive further understands and acknowledges that he has had the opportunity to
disclose any Invention to the Company, and has voluntarily and knowingly waived and
declined such opportunity because he has no Invention to disclose.
