Stock Options. In the event that Employee does not exercise all or a portion of
his vested Stock Options, the Corporation shall, in exchange for the
cancellation of such unexercised Stock Options and to the extent permissible

expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his duties under this
Agreement, provided that the Employee properly accounts for such expenses to
the Corporation in

accordance
with the Corporation’s practices. Such reimbursement or advances will be made
in accordance with policies and procedures of the Corporation in effect from
time to time relating to reimbursement of our advances to executive officers.


 


7.5                               Vacation. For each twelve (12) month period during the Term,
the Employee will be entitled to six (6) weeks of vacation without loss of
compensation or other benefits to which he is entitled under this Agreement
(pro-rated as necessary for partial calendar years during the Term), to be
taken at such times as the Employee may select and the affairs of the
Corporation may permit.


 


7.6                               Employee Benefit Programs. Without any reduction in the
compensation to which the Employee is entitled under the provisions of Sections
7.1 and 7.2 (other than voluntary payment of Employee’s share of premiums or
plan contributions), during the Term the Employee will be entitled to
participate in any health insurance, disability, sick leave, pension insurance
or other employee benefit plan that is maintained at that time by the
Corporation for its executive officers including programs of life and medical
insurance for his family and reimbursement of membership fees in industry
related professional organizations. During the Term, the Corporation shall maintain
a policy of directors and officers’ liability insurance with policy limits and
terms appropriate for the Corporation’s size and business activities, and shall
ensure that the Employee is covered by such policy.

7.8                               Relocation Costs. The Employee shall be
provided with the appropriate office space, secretarial and clerical support
located at the Corporation’s headquarters in Orange County, California, and at
the Corporation’s cost. The Corporation agrees that any change in the
Corporation’s headquarters greater than 30 miles from its existing location as
of the Effective Date, and without the Employee’s consent, constitutes an
immediate constructive termination and entitles the employee to severance under
Section 4.6. Otherwise, with respect to any relocation approved of by the
Employee, the Corporation and Employee acknowledge and agree that if the Employee
is being required to relocate, the Corporation agrees to pay all reasonable
relocation expenses of the Employee. The Corporation agrees that upon
presentation of documentation of such reasonable relocation expenses, that the
Employee will be reimbursed in full within fifteen (15) days. For purposes of
this section, reasonable relocation expenses shall include: (a) airfare
for his entire immediate family for one trip from the existing home location to
the relocated home location; (b) all reasonable closing costs related to
the sale of the Employee’s residence, including broker commissions, title
costs, tax stamps, document fees; and (c) reasonable moving and shipping
costs for furniture and autos.


 


7.9                               Continuing
Education. The Employee shall be entitled to continuing
education seminars at the Corporation’s expense. The Corporation will reimburse

ARTICLE VIII

COVENANT OF CONFIDENTIALITY


 


The Employee acknowledges that during his employment
he will learn and will have access to Confidential Information regarding the
Corporation and its Affiliates. All records, files, materials and Confidential
Information (excluding personal items obtained by the Employee in the course of
his employment with the Corporation and that do not contain Confidential
Information) are confidential and proprietary and shall remain the exclusive
property of the Corporation or its Affiliates, as the case may be. The Employee
will not, except in connection with and as required by his performance of his
duties under this Agreement, for any reason use for his own benefit or the
benefit of any Person or entity with which he may be associated or disclose any
such Confidential Information to any Person for any reason or purpose
whatsoever without the prior written consent of the Board unless such
Confidential Information previously shall have become public knowledge through
no action by or omission of the Employee.


 


ARTICLE IX

COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE


 


9.1         Covenant.
Without limitation to any fiduciary or other legal responsibilities
that Employee may have to the Corporation, the Employee agrees that he will
not, for as long as he is an Employee of the Corporation directly or indirectly
carry on, be engaged in, own, operate, control or participate in the ownership,
management, operation or control of or have any financial interest in or
otherwise be connected with, any Person, or business (whether as an employee,
officer, director, agent, security holder, creditor, consultant, or otherwise)
that is or may be engaged in any business activity that is the same as, similar
to, or competitive (directly or indirectly) with any radiation oncology
business engaged in by the Corporation and/or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing herein shall be deemed or construed to, or shall bar or
preclude the Employee from acquiring directly or indirectly not more than five
percent (5%) of the securities, by value or voting power, in any
publicly-traded company that engages in any activity competitive with any
activity engaged in by the Corporation and/or any of its Affiliates.


 


9.2         Non-Solicitation.
The Employee hereby agrees that during the term of his employment with
the Corporation and for a period of twelve (12) months following the
termination of his employment, without the prior written consent of the
Corporation, he shall not, on his own behalf or on behalf of any Person,
directly or indirectly, hire or solicit the employment of any employee who has
been employed by the Corporation and/or any of its Affiliates at any time
during the six (6) months immediately preceding such date of hiring or
solicitation.


 


9.3         Severability.
The parties hereto agree that the covenants of non-competition
contained herein are reasonable covenants under the circumstances. The parties
intend that the covenant contained in Section 9.1 be construed as a series
of separate covenants, one for each city, county, state, territory, possession
or federal district of the United Sates covered by the covenant. Except for
geographic coverage, each


 


11

















 


separate
covenant will be considered identical in terms to the covenant contained in Section 9.1.
If, in any judicial proceeding, a court refuses to enforce any of the separate
covenants described in this Section 9.3, the unenforceable covenant will
be considered eliminated from these provisions for the purpose of those proceedings
to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be
enforced. The Employee agrees that any breach of the covenants contained in
this Article IX would irreparably injure the Corporation. Accordingly, the
Employee agrees that the Corporation, in addition to pursuing any other
remedies it may have at law or in equity, shall be entitled to obtain an
injunction against him from any court having jurisdiction over the matter,
restraining any further violation of this Article IX and/or withhold any
further payments due to the Employee.


 


9.4          Conflict
with Noncompete Agreement. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of this Article IX and the provisions of the
Noncompete Agreement, the provisions of the Noncompete Agreement shall control.


 


ARTICLE X

ASSIGNABILITY


 


The rights and obligations of the Corporation under
this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors
or assigns of the Corporation. The Employee’s obligations hereunder may not be
assigned or alienated and any attempt to do so by him will be void.


 


ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS


 


11.1        Severance of Provision. If any
provision of this Agreement otherwise is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable
or is prohibited by the laws of the state or jurisdiction where it is to be
performed, this Agreement shall be considered divisible as to such provision
and such provision shall be inoperative in such state or jurisdiction and shall
not be part of the consideration moving from either of the parties to the
other. The remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be valid and binding
and of like effect as though such provisions were not included.


 


11.2        Notice and Address. All notices, offers,
acceptance and any other acts under this Agreement (except payment) shall be in
writing, and shall be sufficiently given if delivered to the addresses in

prepaid, by certified mail return receipt requested (and in each case notice
shall be deemed delivered and effective upon receipt thereof by the recipient),

of them, by notice to the other may designate from time to time.


 


11.3        Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The
execution of this Agreement may be by actual or facsimile signature.


 


11.4        Arbitration of Disputes. In the event of
any controversy or claim, whether based on contract, tort, statute, or other
legal or equitable theory (including but not limited to any claim of fraud,
misrepresentation, or fraudulent inducement) arising out of or related to this
agreement, or any subsequent agreement between the parties (“dispute”) and if the dispute cannot be
resolved by negotiation, the parties agree to submit the dispute to arbitration
pursuant to this section and the then-current rules and supervision of the
American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be held in Orange
County, California at the office of the American Arbitration Association.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any party may seek injunctive
relief for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement or any provision
of this Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction.


 


11.5        Attorney’s Fees. In the event that there is
any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or to
the interpretation, breach or enforcement thereof and any action or proceeding
including that in arbitration as provided for in Section 11.4 of this
Agreement, is commenced to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to an award by the court or arbitrator, as
appropriate, of reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses.


 


11.6        No Violations. The Employee hereby
represents and warrants to the Corporation that the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement does not violate or conflict with the terms of
any other agreement to which the Employee is a party.


 


11.7        Withholdings. All payments to the Employee
under this Agreement shall be reduced by all applicable withholding required by
federal, state or local law.


 


11.8        Governing Law. This Agreement and any
dispute, disagreement, or issue of construction or interpretation arising
hereunder whether relating to its execution, its validity, the obligations
provided therein or performance shall be governed or interpreted according to
the internal laws of the State of California without regard to choice of law
considerations.


 


13

















 


11.9        Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes
the entire Agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior oral and
written agreements between the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated orally, except by a statement in writing
signed by the party or parties against which enforcement or the change, waiver,
discharge or termination is sought.


 


11.10      Code Section 280G. The foregoing
notwithstanding, to the extent that the total amounts payable to Employee under
this Agreement or any other plan or agreement would constitute an “excess
parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (as determined in good faith by
the Corporation’s public accountants) then amounts payable under Section 4.6
shall be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid any such amounts constituting
an excess parachute payment.


 


11.11      Code Section 409A. In the event that the Common
Stock of the Corporation or Holdings becomes publicly-traded and in the event
that any payments to Employee under Section 4.6 constitute non-qualified
deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, then the Corporation
may delay payment of such amounts until the date that is 6 months and one day
after the Employee’s termination of employment, to the extent required to
comply with Code Section 409A.
