                       AGREEMENT FOR PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL
                       ---------------------------------

                              ARAMARK CORPORATION
                     AGREEMENT RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT AND
                          POST-EMPLOYMENT COMPETITION

This Agreement is between the undersigned individual ("Employee") and ARAMARK
CORPORATION ("ARAMARK").

                                   RECITALS
                                   --------

          WHEREAS, ARAMARK is a leading provider of managed services to business
and industry, private and public institutions, and the general public, in the
following business groups:  food and support services; uniform and career
apparel; and educational resources;

          WHEREAS, ARAMARK has a proprietary interest in its business and
financial plans and systems, methods of operation and other secret and
confidential information, knowledge and data ("Proprietary Information") which
includes, but is not limited to, all confidential, proprietary or non-public
information, ideas and concepts; annual and strategic business plans; financial
plans, reports and systems including, profit and loss statements, sales,
accounting forms and procedures and other information regarding costs, pricing
and the financial condition of ARAMARK and its business segments and groups;
management development reviews, including information regarding the capabilities
and experience of ARAMARK employees; intellectual property, including patents,
inventions, discoveries, research and development, compounds, recipes, formulae,
reports, protocols, computer software and databases; information regarding
ARAMARK's relationships with its clients, customers, and suppliers and
prospective clients, partners, investors, vendors, customers and suppliers;
policy and procedure manuals, information regarding materials and documents in
any form or medium

                                       1
<PAGE>

(including oral, written, tangible, intangible, or electronic) concerning any of
the above, or any past, current or future business activities of ARAMARK that is
not publicly available; compensation, recruiting and training, and human
resource policies and procedures; and data compilations, research, reports,
structures, compounds, techniques, methods, processes, know-how, and whereas all
such Proprietary Information is developed at great expense to ARAMARK and is
considered by ARAMARK to be confidential trade secrets;

          WHEREAS, Employee will, as a senior manager, have access to ARAMARK's
Proprietary Information, directly in the course of Employee's employment, and
indirectly through interaction with and presentations by other senior managers
at the Executive Leadership Institute, Executive Leadership Council meetings,
President's Council meetings and the like;

          WHEREAS, ARAMARK will introduce Employee to ARAMARK clients,
customers, suppliers and others, and will encourage, and provide resources for,
Employee to develop personal relationships with ARAMARK's clients, customers,
suppliers and others;

          WHEREAS, ARAMARK has provided and will continue to provide specialized
training and skills to Employee in connection with the performance of Employee's
duties at ARAMARK which training involves the disclosure by ARAMARK to Employee
of Proprietary Information;

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the merger of ARAMARK with and into its wholly-
owned subsidiary, ARAMARK Worldwide Corporation, each share of Class B common
stock of ARAMARK held by Employee will be converted into two shares of Class A
common stock of the surviving corporation, which following the initial public
offering of the Class B common stock of the surviving corporation (collectively,
the "Transaction") and the expiration of the applicable transfer restrictions
set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of the surviving

                                       2
<PAGE>

corporation will be freely tradeable (subject to restrictions imposed by
applicable securities laws) and no longer subject to the restrictions of the
Stockholders Agreement;

          WHEREAS, ARAMARK will be vulnerable to unfair post-employment
competition by Employee because Employee will have access to and knowledge of
ARAMARK's Proprietary Information, will have a personal relationship with
ARAMARK's clients, customers, suppliers and others, and will generate good will
which Employee acknowledges belongs to ARAMARK;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the benefits received by Employee
in connection with the Transaction, the award of non-qualified stock options
under the ARAMARK 2001 Equity Incentive Plan, the severance and other post-
employment benefits provided for herein, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Employee agrees to enter into this Agreement with ARAMARK as a condition of
employment pursuant to which ARAMARK will limit Employee's right to compete
against ARAMARK during and following termination of employment on the terms set
forth in this Agreement.  Intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as
follows:

ARTICLE 1.  NON-DISCLOSURE AND NON-DISPARAGEMENT AGREEMENT:  Employee shall not,
----------------------------------------------------------
during or after termination of employment, directly or indirectly, in any manner
utilize or disclose to any person, firm, corporation, association or other
entity, except where required by law, any Proprietary Information which is not
generally known to the public, or has not otherwise been disclosed or recognized
as standard practice in the industries in which ARAMARK is engaged.  Employee
shall, during and after termination of employment, refrain from making any
statements or comments of a defamatory or disparaging nature to any third

                                       3
<PAGE>

party regarding ARAMARK, or any of ARAMARK's officers, directors, personnel,
policies or products, other than to comply with law.

ARTICLE 2.  NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT:
-------------------------------------

A.   Subject to Article 2. B. below, Employee, during Employee's period of
     employment with ARAMARK, and for a period of two years following the
     voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, shall not, without
     ARAMARK's written permission, which shall be granted or denied in ARAMARK's
     sole discretion, directly or indirectly, associate with (including, but not
     limited to, association as a sole proprietor, owner, employer, partner,
     principal, investor, joint venturer, shareholder, associate, employee,
     member, consultant, contractor or otherwise), or acquire or maintain
     ownership interest in, any Business which is competitive with that
     conducted by or developed for later implementation by ARAMARK at any time
     during the term of Employee's employment, provided, however, if Employee's
     employment is (i) involuntarily terminated by ARAMARK for any reason other
     than Cause (as defined herein), or (ii) terminated by Employee for Good
     Reason (as defined in Exhibit A) at any time following a Change of Control
     (as defined in Exhibit A), then the term of the non-competition provision
     set forth herein will be modified to be one year following such termination
     of employment. For purposes of this Agreement, "Business" shall be defined
     as a person, corporation, firm, LLC, partnership, joint venture or other
     entity. Nothing in the foregoing shall prevent Employee from investing in a
     Business that is or becomes publicly traded, if Employee's ownership is as
     a passive investor of less than 1% of the outstanding publicly traded stock
     of the Business.

B.   The provision set forth in Article 2.A above, shall apply to (i) all fifty
     states, and (ii) each foreign country, possession or territory in which
     ARAMARK may be engaged in, or have

                                       4
<PAGE>

     plans to engage in, business (x) during Employee's period of employment, or
     (y) in the case of a termination of employment, as of the effective date of
     such termination or at any time during the twenty-four month period prior
     thereto.

C.   Employee acknowledges that these restrictions are reasonable and necessary
     to protect the business interests of ARAMARK, and that enforcement of the
     provisions set forth in this Article 2 will not unnecessarily or
     unreasonably impair Employee's ability to obtain other employment following
     the termination (voluntary or involuntary) of Employee's employment with
     ARAMARK. Further, Employee acknowledges that the provisions set forth in
     this Article 2 shall apply if Employee's employment is involuntarily
     terminated by ARAMARK for Cause; as a result of the elimination of
     employee's position; for performance-related issues; or for any other
     reason or no reason at all.

ARTICLE 3.  NON-SOLICITATION: During the period of Employee's employment with
----------------------------
ARAMARK and for a period of two years following the termination of Employee's
employment, regardless of the reason for termination, Employee shall not
directly or indirectly through another entity: (i) induce or encourage any
employee of ARAMARK to leave the employ of ARAMARK, (ii) hire any individual who
was an employee of ARAMARK as of the date of Employee's termination of
employment or within a six month period prior to such date, or (iii) induce or
encourage any customer, licensee or other business relation of ARAMARK to cease
or reduce doing business with ARAMARK or in any way interfere with the
relationship between any such customer, licensee or business relation and
ARAMARK.

ARTICLE 4.  DISCOVERIES AND WORKS: Employee hereby irrevocably assigns,
----------------------------------
transfers, and conveys to ARAMARK to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law Employee's right, title and interest now or hereinafter acquired, in and to
all Discoveries and Works (as defined below) created, invented, designed,
developed, improved or contributed to by

                                       5
<PAGE>

Employee, either alone or jointly with others, while employed by ARAMARK and
within the scope of Employee's employment and/or with the use of ARAMARK's
resources. The terms "Discoveries and Works" include all works of authorship,
inventions, intellectual property, materials, documents, or other work product
(including, without limitation, Proprietary Information, patents and patent
applications, patentable inventions, research, reports, software, code,
databases, systems, applications, presentations, textual works, graphics and
audiovisual materials). Employee shall have the burden of proving that any
materials or works created, invented, designed, developed, contributed to or
improved by Employee that are implicated by or relevant to employment by ARAMARK
are not implicated by this provision. Employee agrees to (i) keep accurate
records and promptly notify, make full disclosure to, and execute and deliver
any documents and to take any further actions requested by ARAMARK to assist it
in validating, effectuating, maintaining, protecting, enforcing, perfecting,
recording, patenting or registering any of its rights hereunder, and (ii)
renounce any and all claims, including, without limitation, claims of ownership
and royalty, with respect to all Discoveries and Works and all other property
owned or licensed by ARAMARK. Any Discoveries and Works that, within six months
after the termination of Employee's employment with ARAMARK, are made,
disclosed, reduced to a tangible or written form or description, or are reduced
to practice by Employee and which pertain to the business carried on or products
or services being sold or developed by ARAMARK at the time of such termination
shall, as between Employee and ARAMARK, be presumed to have been made during
such employment with ARAMARK. Employee acknowledges that, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, all Discoveries and Works shall be deemed "works made for
hire" under the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, 17 U.S.C. Section 101.
Employee hereby grants ARAMARK a perpetual, nonexclusive, royalty-free,
worldwide, assignable, sublicensable license under all rights and intellectual
property rights (including patent, industrial property,

                                       6
<PAGE>

copyright, trademark, trade secret, unfair competition and related laws) in any
Works and Discoveries, for all purposes in connection with ARAMARK's current and
future business, that Employee has created, invented, designed, developed,
improved or contributed to prior to Employee's employment with ARAMARK that are
relevant to or implicated by such employment ("Prior Works"). Any Prior Works
are disclosed by Employee in Schedule A.

ARTICLE 5.  REMEDIES:  Employee acknowledges that in the event of any violation
--------------------
by Employee of the provisions set forth in Articles 1, 2, 3 or 4 above, ARAMARK
will sustain serious, irreparable and substantial harm to its business, the
extent of which will be difficult to determine and impossible to fully remedy by
an action at law for money damages.  Accordingly, Employee agrees that, in the
event of such violation or threatened violation by Employee, ARAMARK shall be
entitled to an injunction before trial before any court of competent
jurisdiction as a matter of course upon the posting of not more than a nominal
bond, in addition to all such other legal and equitable remedies as may be
available to ARAMARK.  If ARAMARK is required to enforce the provisions set
forth in Articles 2 and 3 above by seeking an injunction, Employee agrees that
the relevant time periods set forth in Articles 2 and 3 shall commence with the
entry of the injunction.  Employee further agrees that, in the event any of the
provisions of this Agreement are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be invalid, illegal, or for any reason unenforceable as written, such court
shall substitute a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent of
the invalid provision and which would be enforceable to the maximum extent
permitted by law.

ARTICLE 6.  POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A.   If Employee's employment is terminated by ARAMARK for any reason other than
     Cause, Employee shall be entitled to the following post-employment
     benefits:

                                       7
<PAGE>

1.  Severance Pay:  Employee shall receive severance payments equivalent to
          Employee's weekly base salary as of the effective date of termination
          for the number of weeks set forth on the following schedule:


    ----------------------------------------------------------
    Years of ARAMARK               Weeks of Severance Pay
    ----------------               ----------------------
    Continuous Service
    ------------------
    Completed from Last Hire
    ------------------------
    Date
    ----
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    Less than 2                    26
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    2                              32
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    3                              39
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    4                              45
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    5 or More                      52
    ----------------------------------------------------------

    Severance payments shall commence with the Employee's effective date of
    termination and shall be made in accordance with ARAMARK's normal payroll
    cycle. The period during which employee receives severance payments shall be
    referred to as the "Severance Pay Period."

2.  Other Post-Employment Benefits

    (a)   Basic Group medical and life insurance coverages shall continue under
          then prevailing terms during the Severance Pay Period; provided,
          however, that if Employee becomes employed by a new employer during
          that period, continuing coverage from ARAMARK will become secondary to
          any coverage afforded by the new employer. Employee's share of the
          premiums will be deducted from Employee's severance payments. Basic
          Group medical coverage provided during such period shall be applied

                                       8
<PAGE>

          against ARAMARK's obligation to continue group medical coverage under
          the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA").
          Upon termination of basic group medical and life coverages, Employee
          may convert such coverages to individual policies to the extent
          allowable under plan provisions.

     (b)  Employee's leased vehicle shall be made available to Employee through
          the Severance Pay Period at which time Employee has the option to
          either purchase the vehicle in accordance with the Executive
          Leadership Council plan then in effect or return it to ARAMARK.

     (c)  Employee's eligibility to participate in all other benefit and
          compensation plans, including, but not limited to the Management
          Incentive Bonus, Long Term Disability, Stock Unit Retirement, Deferred
          Compensation and any stock option or ownership plans, shall terminate
          as of the effective date of Employee's termination unless provided
          otherwise under the terms of a particular plan, provided, however,
          that participation in plans and programs made available solely to
          Executive Leadership Council members, including, but not limited to
          the Executive Leadership Council Medical Plan, shall cease as of the
          effective date of termination or the date Employee's Executive
          Leadership Council membership ceases, whichever occurs first.
          Employee, however, shall have certain rights to continue the Executive
          Leadership Council Medical Plan under COBRA.

B. Termination for "Cause" shall be defined as termination of employment due to:
   (i) conviction of or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony
   (or any similar crime for purposes of laws outside the United States), (ii)
   fraud or dishonesty, (iii) willful

                                       9
<PAGE>

    failure to perform assigned duties, (iv) willful violation of ARAMARK's
    Business Conduct Policy, or (v) intentionally working against the best
    interest of ARAMARK.

C.  If Employee is terminated by ARAMARK for reasons other than Cause, Employee
    will receive the severance payments and other post-employment benefits
    during the Severance Pay Period even if Employee commences other employment
    during such period provided such employment does not violate the terms of
    Article 2.

D.  In addition to the remedies set forth in Article 5, ARAMARK reserves the
    right to terminate all severance payments and other post-employment benefits
    if Employee violates the covenants set forth in Articles 1, 2, 3 or 4 above.

E.  Employee's receipt of severance and other post-employment benefits under
    this Agreement is contingent on (i) Employee's execution of a release in a
    form reasonably acceptable to ARAMARK, except that such release shall not
    include any claims by Employee to enforce Employee's rights under, or with
    respect to, this Agreement (including the attached Exhibit A) or any ARAMARK
    benefit plan pursuant to its terms, and (ii) the expiration of the
    applicable Age Discrimination in Employment Act revocation period without
    such release being revoked by Employee; provided, however, that this Article
    6.E no longer shall apply following a Change of Control (as defined in the
    attached Exhibit A).

F.  ARTICLE 7.  TERM OF EMPLOYMENT:  Employee acknowledges that ARAMARK has the
    ------------------------------
    right to terminate Employee's employment at any time for any reason
    whatsoever, provided, however, that any termination by ARAMARK for reasons
    other than Cause shall result in the severance and the post-employment
    benefits described in Article 6 above, to become due in accordance with the
    terms of this Agreement subject to the conditions set forth in this
    Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that the

                                       10
<PAGE>

    severance payments made and other benefits provided by ARAMARK are in full
    satisfaction of any obligations ARAMARK may have resulting from ARAMARK's
    exercise of its right to terminate Employee's employment, except for those
    obligations which are intended to survive termination such as the payments
    to be made pursuant to retirement plans, deferred compensation plans and
    conversion of insurance.

ARTICLE 8.  MISCELLANEOUS:
-------------------------

A.  As used throughout this Agreement, ARAMARK includes ARAMARK CORPORATION
    (which shall include ARAMARK Worldwide Corporation, as its successor in the
    merger described above) and its subsidiaries and affiliates or any
    corporation, joint venture, or other entity in which ARAMARK CORPORATION or
    its subsidiaries or affiliates has an equity interest in excess of ten
    percent (10%).

B.  This Agreement shall supersede and substitute for any previous post-
    employment or severance agreement between Employee and ARAMARK.

C.  In the event of a Change of Control as defined in the attached Exhibit A,
    the provisions of Exhibit A shall apply to Employee.

D.  If Employee's employment with ARAMARK terminates solely by reason of a
    transfer of stock or assets of, or a merger or other disposition of, a
    subsidiary of ARAMARK (whether direct or indirect), such termination shall
    not be deemed a termination of employment by ARAMARK for purposes of this
    Agreement, provided that ARAMARK requires the subsequent employer, by
    agreement, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the
    same manner and to the same extent that ARAMARK would be required to perform
    it if no such transaction had taken place.

E.  Employee shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any
    payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or
    otherwise.

                                       11
<PAGE>

F.  In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or
    become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
    legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
    shall not be affected thereby.

G.  The terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
    Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflicts of laws principles
    thereof. For purposes of any action or proceeding, Employee irrevocably
    submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Pennsylvania and
    the courts of the United States of America located in Pennsylvania for the
    purpose of any judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to this
    Agreement, and acknowledges that the designated fora have a reasonable
    relation to the Agreement and to the parties' relationship with one another.
    Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 8.G, ARAMARK may, in its
    discretion, bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent
    jurisdiction for the purpose of seeking temporary or preliminary relief
    pending resolution of a dispute.

H.  Employee expressly consents to the application of Article 8.G to any
    judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and
    irrevocably appoints the General Counsel of ARAMARK Corporation (or any
    successor) as Employee's agent for service of legal process in connection
    with any such action or proceeding and agrees that service of process upon
    such agent, who shall promptly advise Employee of any such service of
    process at the address of Employee then in the records of ARAMARK, shall be
    deemed in every respect effective service of process upon Employee in any
    such action or proceeding. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right
    of ARAMARK to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

I.  Employee hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
    any objection that Employee now or hereafter may have to personal
    jurisdiction or to the laying of

                                       12
<PAGE>

    venue of any action or proceeding brought in any court referenced in Article
    8.G and hereby agrees not to plead or claim the same.

J.  Employee and ARAMARK acknowledge that for purposes of Article 6, Employee's
    last hire date with ARAMARK is [_______________].

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto have
caused this Agreement to be signed.

                       TERMINATION PROTECTION PROVISIONS


          THIS is an Exhibit A to, and forms a part of, the ARAMARK Corporation
Agreement Relating to Employment and Post-Employment Competition between
_________________ (the "Executive") and ARAMARK Corporation.

                                DEFINED TERMS.

          Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this Exhibit
which are defined in Schedule A shall have the meanings set forth in Schedule A.

                             EFFECTIVE DATE; TERM.

          This Exhibit shall be effective as of ___________, 2001 (the
"Effective Date") and shall remain in effect until _______________, 2004 (the
"Term"); provided, however, that commencing with _________________, 2002 and on
each anniversary thereof (each an "Extension Date"), the Term shall be
automatically extended for an additional one-year period, unless the Company or
Executive provides the other party hereto written notice before the applicable
Extension Date that the Term shall not be so extended.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Exhibit shall, if in effect on the date of a Change of Control,
remain in effect for three years following the Change of Control.

                          CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFITS.

          If Executive's employment with the Company is terminated at any time
within the three years following a Change of Control by the Company without
Cause, or by Executive for Good Reason (the effective date of either such
termination hereafter referred to as the "Termination Date"), Executive shall be
entitled to the payments and benefits provided hereafter in this Section 3 and
as set forth in this Exhibit.  If Executive's employment by the Company is
terminated prior to a Change of Control by the Company (i) at the request of a
party (other than the Company) involved in the Change of Control or (ii)
otherwise in connection with or in anticipation of a Change of Control that
subsequently occurs, Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided
hereafter in this Section 3 and as set forth in this Exhibit, and Executive's
Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred immediately following the
Change of Control.  Payment of benefits under this Exhibit shall be in addition
to, and not in lieu of, any benefits payable under the ARAMARK Corporation
Agreement Relating to Employment and Post-Employment Competition of which this
Exhibit is a part, except as provided in Section 3(b) hereof.  Notice of
termination without Cause or for Good Reason shall be given in accordance with
Section 13, and shall indicate the specific termination provision hereunder

          (i)   (1) two times Executive's Base Salary in effect on the date of
                the Change of Control or the Termination Date, whichever is
                higher; provided that if any reduction of the Base Salary has
                occurred, then the Base Salary on either date shall be as in
                effect immediately prior to such reduction, payable in regular
                installments at such times as would otherwise be the Company's
                usual payroll practice over a period of two years; and

          (ii)  (2) the higher of: (A) two times Executive's Target Bonus in
                effect on the date of the Change of Control or the Termination
                Date, whichever is greater; or (B) two times Executive's most
                recent actual annual bonus, payable in either case ratably in
                regular installments at the same time as payments are made to
                Executive under Section 3(a)(1) above; provided that if any
                reduction of the Target Bonus has occurred, then the Target
                Bonus on either date shall be as in effect immediately prior to
                such reduction; and

          (iii) (3) Executive's Target Bonus (as determined in (2), above)
                multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the
                number of days Executive was employed by the Company in the
                Company fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs and the
                denominator of which shall equal 365, payable as a cash lump sum
                within forty days after the Termination Date; and

          (iv)  (4) in the case of a termination of employment by Executive for
                Good Reason, an amount equal to the severance pay specified in
                Article 5.A.1. of the attached ELC Agreement (as defined in
                Section 8 hereof), payable according to the schedule set forth
                therein, determined as if Executive's employment had been
                terminated by ARAMARK without Cause on the Termination Date.

B.   Continuation of Benefits. Until the second anniversary of the Termination
     Date, the Company shall, at its expense, provide Executive and Executive's
     spouse and dependents with medical, life insurance and disability coverages
     at the level provided to Executive immediately prior to the Change of
     Control; provided, however, that if Executive becomes employed by a new
     employer, continuing coverage from the Company will become secondary to any
     coverage afforded by the new employer. In the event benefits are continued
     under this Section 3(b), such continued benefits shall be in lieu of those
     specified in Article 5.A.2.a of the attached ELC Agreement (as defined in
     Section 8 hereof).

                                       16
<PAGE>

C.   Payment of Earned But Unpaid Amounts. Within forty days after the
     Termination Date, the Company shall pay Executive the Base Salary through
     the Termination Date, any Bonus earned but unpaid as of the Termination
     Date for any previously completed fiscal year of the Company, all
     compensation previously deferred by Executive but not yet paid and
     reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses properly incurred by Executive
     in accordance with Company policies prior to the Termination Date.
     Executive shall also receive such employee benefits, if any, to which
     Executive may be entitled from time to time under the employee benefit or
     fringe benefit plans, policies or programs of the Company, other than any
     Company severance policy (payments and benefits in this subsection (c), the
     "Accrued Benefits").

D.   Outplacement Counseling. For the two-year period following the Termination
     Date (or, if earlier, the date Executive first obtains full-time employment
     after the Termination Date), the Company shall reimburse all reasonable
     expenses incurred by Executive for professional outplacement services by
     qualified consultants selected by Executive, in an amount not to exceed 20%
     of the Executive's Base Salary in effect on the date of the Change of
     Control or the Termination Date, whichever is higher.

E.   Vesting of Other Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to such accelerated
     vesting of outstanding equity-based awards or retirement plan benefits as
     is specified under the terms of the applicable plans, agreements and
     arrangements.

                                  MITIGATION.

          Executive shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of
any payment provided for under this Exhibit by seeking other employment or
otherwise, and, subject to Section 3(b), compensation earned from such
employment or otherwise shall not reduce the amounts otherwise payable under
this Exhibit. No amounts payable under this Exhibit shall be

                                       17
<PAGE>

subject to reduction or offset in respect of any claims which the Company (or
any other person or entity) may have against Executive.

                                   GROSS-UP.

A.   In the event it shall be determined that any payment, benefit or
     distribution (or combination thereof) by the Company, any of its
     affiliates, or one or more trusts established by the Company for the
     benefit of its employees, to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid
     or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this
     Exhibit, or otherwise) (a "Payment") is subject to the excise tax imposed
     by Section 4999 of the Code 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, hereinafter collectively referred to as
     the "Excise Tax"), 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 the
     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.

B.   All determinations required to be made under this Section 5, including
     whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such
     Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such
     determination, shall be made by such nationally recognized certified public
     accounting firm as may be designated by the Company (the "Accounting Firm")
     which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company
     and Executive within ten business days of the receipt of notice from
     Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is
     requested by the

                                       18
<PAGE>

     Company; provided that for purposes of determining the amount of any Gross-
     Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income tax at the
     highest marginal rates applicable to individuals in the calendar year in
     which any such Gross-Up Payment is to be made and deemed to pay state and
     local income taxes at the highest effective rates applicable to individuals
     in the state or locality of Executive's residence or place of employment in
     the calendar year in which any such Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of
     the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that can be obtained from
     deduction of such state and local taxes, taking into account limitations
     applicable to individuals subject to federal income tax at the highest
     marginal rates. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne
     solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this
     Section 5, shall be paid by the Company to Executive (or to the appropriate
     taxing authority on Executive's behalf) when due. If the Accounting Firm
     determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Executive, it shall so indicate
     to Executive in writing. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be
     binding upon the Company and Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in
     the application of Section 4999 of the Code, it is possible that the amount
     of the Gross-Up Payment determined by the Accounting Firm to be due to (or
     on behalf of) Executive was lower than the amount actually due
     ("Underpayment"). In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies
     pursuant to Section 5(c) and Executive thereafter is required to make a
     payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount
     of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be
     promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive.

                                       19
<PAGE>

C.   Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal
     Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the
     Company of any Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon
     as practicable but no later than ten business days after Executive is
     informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the
     nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be
     paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the
     thirty day period following the date on which it gives such notice to the
     Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of
     taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies Executive
     in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to
     contest such claim, Executive shall (i) give the Company any information
     reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim, (ii) take such
     action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall
     reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without
     limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an
     attorney reasonably selected by the Company, (iii) cooperate with the
     Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim and (iv)
     permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such
     claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all
     costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred
     in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive
     harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax
     (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result
     of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without
     limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(c), the Company
     shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at
     its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals,
     proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in

                                       20
<PAGE>

     respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive
     to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any
     permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a
     determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
     jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall
     determine; provided, further, that if the Company directs Executive to pay
     such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of
     such payment to Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify
     and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or
     income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed
     with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with
     respect to such advance; provided, further, that if Executive is required
     to extend the statute of limitations to enable the Company to contest such
     claim, Executive may limit this extension solely to such contested amount.
     The Company's control of the contest shall be limited to issues with
     respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and
     Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any
     other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing
     authority.

D.   If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount paid or advanced by the
     Company pursuant to this Section 5, Executive becomes entitled to receive
     any refund with respect to a Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall (subject to
     the Company's complying with the requirements of Section 5(c)) promptly pay
     to the Company the amount of such refund received (together with any
     interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If,
     after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by the Company
     pursuant to Section 5(c), a determination is made that Executive shall not
     be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does
     not notify Executive in

                                       21
<PAGE>

     writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the
     expiration of thirty days after such determination, then such advance shall
     be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such
     advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of the Gross-Up
     Payment required to be paid.

                            TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.

          Nothing in this Exhibit shall be construed to prevent the Company from
terminating Executive's employment for Cause.  If Executive is terminated for
Cause, the Company shall have no obligation to make any payments under this
Exhibit, except for the Accrued Benefits.

        INDEMNIFICATION; DIRECTOR'S AND OFFICER'S LIABILITY INSURANCE.

          Executive shall, after the Termination Date, retain all rights to
indemnification under applicable law or under the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws, as they may be amended or restated from time to time.
In addition, the Company shall maintain Director's and Officer's liability
insurance on behalf of Executive, at the level in effect immediately prior to
the Termination Date, for the three year period following the Termination Date,
and throughout the period of any applicable statute of limitations.

                             EXECUTIVE COVENANTS.

          This is an Exhibit A to, and forms a part of, an agreement with the
Company relating to employment and post-employment competition (the "ELC
Agreement").  This Exhibit shall not diminish in any way Executive's rights
under the terms of such ELC Agreement, except that Executive's receipt of
benefits under this Exhibit is contingent upon Executive's compliance in all
material respects with all of the terms and conditions of the ELC Agreement.

                             COSTS OF PROCEEDINGS.

          Each party shall pay its own costs and expenses in connection with any
legal proceeding (including arbitration), relating to the interpretation or
enforcement of any provision of this Exhibit, except that the Company shall pay
such costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, of
Executive if Executive prevails in such proceeding.

                                  ASSIGNMENT.

          Except as otherwise provided herein, this Exhibit shall be binding
upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Company and Executive
and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.  If
the Company shall be merged into or consolidated with another entity, the
provisions of this Exhibit shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
entity surviving such merger or resulting from such consolidation.  The Company
shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or

                                       22
<PAGE>

otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company,
by agreement, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Exhibit in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it
if no such succession had taken place. The provisions of this Section 10 shall
continue to apply to each subsequent employer of Executive hereunder in the
event of any subsequent merger, consolidation or transfer of assets of such
subsequent employer.

                                 WITHHOLDING.

          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Exhibit, the Company may,
to the extent required by law, withhold applicable federal, state and local
income and other taxes from any payments due to Executive hereunder.

                                APPLICABLE LAW.

          This Exhibit shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflicts of laws
principles thereof.

                                    NOTICE.
