         Executive of all premiums, contributions and other co-payments
         required to be paid by senior executives of the Company under the
         terms of such plans, the Executive shall be permitted to participate

<PAGE>

         insurance plans. If such continued participation is either not legally
         permissible or otherwise allowed under the terms of the applicable

services as a consultant) (i) during the Salary Continuance Period, any salary
continuation payments or Bonus Payments to which Executive is entitled pursuant
to Section 2(c) or 2(d) shall be reduced by the amount of any compensation
earned by Executive (whether paid currently or deferred) from any subsequent
employer or other person for which Executive performs services, including but
not limited to consulting services, and (ii) the continued medical benefits
coverage to which Executive is entitled pursuant to Section 2(e) shall cease as
