reasonably incurred by him on behalf of or in connection with the business of the Company, pursuant
to the normal standards and guidelines followed from time to time by the Company. (i) Withholding. All payments made to the Employee hereunder shall be made net of any
applicable withholding for income taxes and the Employees share of FICA, FUTA or other taxes. The

remit such amounts to the applicable governmental authorities in accordance with applicable law. 3.Termination. (a) For Cause.The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and to
discharge the Employee for Cause (as defined below), at any time during the term of this Agreement.
Termination for Cause shall mean, during the term of this Agreement, (i) Employees conduct that
would constitute under federal or state law either a felony or a misdemeanor involving moral
turpitude, or a determination by the Companys Board of Directors, after consideration of all
available information and following the procedures set forth below, that Employee has willfully
violated Company policies or procedures involving discrimination, harassment, alcohol or substance
abuse, or work place violence causing material injury to the Company, (ii) Employees actions or
omissions that constitute fraud, dishonesty or gross misconduct, (iii) Employees knowing and
intentional breach of any fiduciary duty that causes material injury to the Company, and (iv)
Employees inability to perform his material duties, after reasonable notice and an opportunity to
resolve the issues, due to alcohol or other substance abuse. Any termination for Cause pursuant to
this Section shall be given to the Employee in writing and shall set forth in detail all acts or
omissions upon which the Company is relying to terminate the Employee for Cause. Upon any determination by the Company that Cause exists to terminate the Employee, the Company
shall cause a special meeting of the Board of Directors to be called and held at a time mutually
convenient to the Board of Directors and Employee, but in no event later than ten (10) business
days after Employees receipt of the notice that the Company intends to terminate the Employee for
Cause. Employee shall have the right to appear before such special meeting of the Board of
Directors with legal counsel of his choosing to refute such allegations and shall have a reasonable
period of time to cure any actions or omissions which provide the Company with a basis to terminate
the Employee for Cause (provided that such cure period shall not exceed 30 days). A majority of
the members of the Board of Directors must affirm that Cause exists to terminate the Employee. No
finding by the Board of Directors will prevent the Employee from contesting such determination
through appropriate legal proceedings provided that the Employees sole remedy shall be to sue for
damages, not reinstatement, and damages shall be limited to those that would be paid to the
Employee if he had been terminated without Cause. In the event the Company terminates the Employee
for Cause, the Company shall only be obligated to continue to pay in the ordinary and normal course
of its business to the Employee his Salary plus accrued but unused vacation time through the
termination date and the Company shall have no further obligations to Employee from and after the
date of termination. (b) Resignation by Employee. If the Employee shall resign or otherwise terminate his
employment with the Company at anytime during the term of this Agreement, the -3-

Employee shall only be entitled to receive his accrued and unpaid Salary and vacation pay
through the termination date, and the Company shall have no further obligations under this
Agreement from and after the date of resignation. (c) Termination by Company Without Cause. At any time during the term of this
Agreement the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and to discharge the
Employee without Cause effective upon delivery of written notice to the Employee. Upon any such
termination by the Company without Cause, the Company shall pay to the Employee all of the
Employees accrued but unpaid Salary and vacation pay through the date of termination, and
thereafter, the Company: (i) shall continue to pay to the Employee his Salary payable in accordance
with Section 2(a) for six (6) months from the date of termination, when and as the same would have
been due and payable hereunder but for such termination, (ii) shall continue Employees health
benefits under the Companys then health insurance program(s) for six months from the date of
termination (or until Employees death or the date on which Employee becomes covered by the health
plan of a subsequent employer, to the extent that either of these events occurs earlier).
Additionally, if Employee is terminated without Cause, all stock options and restricted stock
grants previously granted to him will immediately vest (to the extent not then already vested), and
all such stock options shall remain exercisable for the lesser of the unexpired term of such
options or six months from the date of Employees termination. All payments made to the Employee
pursuant to this Section 3(c) are collectively, referred to herein as the Severance Payment.
Other than the Severance Payment, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Employee
except for the obligations set forth in Section 12 of this Agreement after the date of such
termination; provided, however, that the Employee shall only be entitled to continuation of the
Severance Payments as long as he is in compliance with the provisions of Sections 6 and 7 of this
Agreement. Additionally, Employee shall be entitled to receive each month for six-months following
the termination of the Employment Period Employees monthly portion of the Salary, so long as
Employee is in compliance with Sections 6 and 7 of the Agreement and so long as Employee has not
been terminated for Cause, in which case the restrictive covenant shall apply notwithstanding the
payment of severance. (d) Disability of the Employee. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company upon
the Disability of the Employee. Disability shall mean any mental or physical illness, condition,
disability or incapacity which prevents the Employee from reasonably discharging his duties and
responsibilities under this Agreement for a period of 180 consecutive days. In the event that any
disagreement or dispute shall arise between the Company and the Employee as to whether the Employee
suffers from any Disability, then, in such event, the Employee shall submit to the physical or
mental examination of a physician licensed under the laws of the State of North Carolina, who is
mutually agreeable to the Company and the Employee, and such physician shall determine whether the
Employee suffers from any Disability. In the absence of fraud or bad faith, the determination of
such physician shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Employee. The entire cost of
such examination shall be paid for solely by the Company. In the event the Company has purchased
Disability insurance for Employee, the Employee shall be deemed disabled if he is completely
(fully) disabled as defined by the terms of the Disability policy. In the event that at any time
during the term of this Agreement the Employee shall suffer a Disability and the Company terminates
the Employees employment for such Disability, the Company shall continue to pay to the Employee
his Salary, payable in accordance with Section 2(a) for three (3) months from the date of the
termination, when and as the same would have been due and payable hereunder but for such
termination, -4-

except that payment of the Salary in accordance with said paragraph shall be mitigated to the

this Agreement, in the event that there shall occur a Change of Control (as defined below) of the
Company and within two years after such Change of Control the Employees employment hereunder is

all accrued but unpaid Salary and vacation pay through the date of termination, plus (i) the
product of two (2) multiplied by the Employees then current Salary (at a base salary no lower than
the base salary provided in paragraph 2(a) above), plus (ii) the product of two (2) multiplied by
the Bonus that Employee earned with respect to his services in the Fiscal Year prior to the Fiscal
Year in which such termination occurs, assuming that all performance objectives are met
(collectively, the foregoing consideration payable to the Employee shall be referred to herein as
the Change in Control Payment). The Change in Control Payment shall be made no later than 10
days after the Employees termination pursuant to this Section 4. To the extent that payments are
owed by the Company to the Employee pursuant to this Section 4, they shall be made in lieu of
payments pursuant to Section 3, and in no event shall the Company be required to make payments or
provide benefits to the Employee under both Section 3 and Section 4. Additionally, Employee shall
be entitled to receive the Change of Control Payment set forth above in the event that within six
months after the term of this Agreement, a Change of Control shall occur. (b) Change of Control of the Company Defined. For purposes of this Section 4, a

Harber and his affiliates and/or heirs and (B) such person or persons own Company securities with
more of the combined voting power of the Company than those held by Lacy J. Harber and his
affiliates and/or heirs; or (iii) The shareholders of the Company approve (1) a reorganization, merger, or consolidation
with respect to which persons who were the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such

instrument in form and in substance reasonably satisfactory to the Employee pursuant to which any
such successor shall agree to assume and to timely perform or to cause to be timely performed all
of the Companys covenants, agreements and obligations set forth in this Agreement (a Successor
Agreement). The failure of the Company to cause any such successor to execute and deliver a

Agreement by the Company. 6.Restrictive Covenants.In consideration of his employment and the other benefits
arising under this Agreement, the Employee agrees that during the term of this Agreement, and for a

however,that the beneficial ownership of less than one percent (1%) of the shares of stock of any
corporation having a class of equity securities actively traded on a national securities exchange
or over-the-counter market shall not be deemed, in and of itself, to violate the prohibitions of
this Section; or (b) for any reason, (i) induce any customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates to patronize any business directly or indirectly in competition with the businesses
conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates in any market in which the

the Company has been terminated for Cause or without Cause and whether or not the Company is
required to pay Employee severance benefits under Section 3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if this Agreement expires by its terms at the end of the Employment Period, then the
provisions of this Section 6 shall only apply to Employee if the Company provides Employee with all
of the severance benefits which it would be obligated to provide to him under Section 3(c) of this
Agreement as if the Employee had been terminated from his employment with the Company without
Cause. 7.Confidentiality.The Employee agrees that at all times during the term of this
Agreement and after the termination of employment for as long as such information remains
non-public information, the Employee shall (i) hold in confidence and refrain from disclosing to

of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and (iv) observe all security policies
implemented by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates from time to time with respect
to the Confidential Information. In the event that the Employee is ordered to disclose any
Confidential Information, whether in a legal or regulatory proceeding or otherwise, the Employee
shall provide the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates with prompt notice of such
request or order so that the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates may seek to prevent

or otherwise disparage the Company. 8.Specific Performance; Injunction.The parties agree and acknowledge that the
restrictions contained in Sections 6 and 7 are reasonable in scope and duration and are necessary
to protect the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. If any provision of Section 6 or
7 as applied to any party or to any circumstance is adjudged by a court to be invalid or
unenforceable, the same shall in no way affect any other circumstance or the validity or
enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. If any such provision, or any part
thereof, is held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the area covered
thereby, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce
the duration and/or area of such provision, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its
reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. The Employee agrees
and acknowledges that the breach of Section 6 or 7 will cause irreparable -7-

injury to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and upon breach of any
provision of such Sections, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be entitled
to injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief, without being required to
post a bond; provided, however,that, this shall in no way limit any other remedies which the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates may have (including, without limitation, the right
to seek monetary damages). 9.Notices.All notices, requests, demands, claims and other communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered by hand delivery, by certified or
registered mail (first class postage pre-paid), guaranteed overnight delivery or facsimile
transmission if such transmission is confirmed by delivery by certified or registered mail (first
class postage pre-paid) or guaranteed overnight delivery to, the following addresses and telecopy

listed on the signature page hereto. 10.Amendment; Waiver.This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or supplemented,
except by written instrument executed by all parties. No failure to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude the exercise of
any other right, power or privilege. No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to
be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any
waiver be implied from any course of dealing between the parties. No extension of time for
performance of any obligations or other acts hereunder or under any other agreement shall be deemed
to be an extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or any other acts. The
rights and remedies of the parties under this Agreement are in addition to all other rights and
remedies, at law or equity, that they may have against each other. 11.Assignment; Third Party Beneficiary.This Agreement, and the Employees rights
and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned or delegated by him. The Company may assign its
rights, and delegate its obligations, hereunder to any affiliate of the Company, or any successor
to the Company or its aviation services business, specifically including the restrictive covenants
set forth in Section 6 hereof. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon its respective successors and assigns. 12.Severability; Survival.In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
found to be void and unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such unenforceable
provision shall be deemed modified so as to be enforceable (or if not subject to modification then
eliminated herefrom) to the extent necessary to permit the remaining provisions to be enforced in
accordance with the parties intention. The provisions of Sections 6 and 7 will survive the
termination for any reason of the Employees relationship with the Company. 13.Indemnification.The Company agrees to indemnify the Employee during the term and
after termination of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Companys certificate
of incorporation and bylaws and the Delaware General Corporation Law. -8-
