 interfere with the performance of Your obligations under this Agreement or conflict with the interests of
the Company. 
  
 D.  As an officer of the Company, You owe a duty of care and loyalty to
the Company, as well as a duty to perform Your Duties in a manner that is in the best interests of the Company. 
  
 E.  You agree to comply with the policies and procedures of the Company as may be adopted and changed from time to time, including those described in the Company’s employee handbook. Material changes to policies and
procedures may be made from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors. If this Agreement conflicts with such policies or procedures, this Agreement will control. 
  

2.  Compensation. 
  
 A.  Base Salary.     During the term of this Agreement, Company shall pay to You a base salary of $240,000 per year (“Base Salary”), subject to all applicable withholdings. Your
Base Salary may be adjusted annually at the discretion of the Board of Directors, however these adjustments may only be increases and not decreases. Your Base Salary shall be paid to You in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll
practices. 
  
 B.  Bonus.     During the term of this Agreement,
You will receive an annual bonus if Your performance and the Company’s performance meets certain criteria established from year to year by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Bonus”). You will not receive any Bonus if, due to
termination for cause, You are not employed on the last day of the year for which the Bonus is to be paid, otherwise the bonus is to be prorated. The Bonus will be subject to all applicable withholdings and will be paid in accordance with the
Company’s Annual Bonus Incentive Plan. In the event of a Change of Control, the Company and Your individual performance targets for the Annual Bonus Incentive Plan shall be deemed to be met in full for the remainder plan year in which the
Change of Control occurs. Payment of such bonus shall be made to You on the earlier of (i) Your termination pursuant to Section 5C hereof, or (ii) in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in the bonus plan. 
  
 C.  Stock Options.     As soon as possible after execution of this Agreement, the
Company will request that the Board of Directors grant You an option to acquire 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option”). The exercise price of the Option shall be the fair market value as of the date of grant of
the Option. The Option shall vest in equal installments on an annual basis over a period of four (4) years, with the vesting period commencing on the Effective Date. Vesting of the Option shall cease upon termination of Your employment for any
reason except as provided in Section 5C or 5D of this Agreement. Immediately upon a Change of Control, vesting of all options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock held by You shall be accelerated so that all such options shall be
immediately exercisable in full. The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of a Stock Option Grant Certificate (the “Stock Option Certificate”) to be prepared by the Company and the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan.

  
 D.  Executive Benefits.     You shall be entitled to
participate in all benefit plans as shall be in effect for all executive level personnel or applicable generally to employees of the Company from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs. 
  
 3.  Term.    The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of two (2) years, beginning on the
Effective Date and ending on January 31, 2004 (the “Employment Period”). The Agreement shall be 
 

 2 







 automatically renewed for additional, consecutive (1) year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) upon the termination of the Initial Term and
each Renewal Term unless the Company delivers to You written notice of its intent not to renew this Agreement ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as the case may be. The Initial Term and, if this
Agreement is extended in accordance with this Section, each Renewal Term, shall be referred to collectively herein as the “Employment Period.” If this Agreement is not renewed in accordance with this Section, Your employment relationship
will convert to an at-will relationship, meaning that You may terminate Your employment with the Company at any time and for any reason whatsoever simply by notifying the Company, and the Company may terminate Your employment at any time with or
without cause or advance notice. If this Agreement is not renewed and Your employment converts to an at-will relationship, the period in which You continue to be employed with the Company shall not be included in the definition of “Employment
Period” for purposes of this Agreement. 
  
 In the event of a Change of Control Your rights thereafter under
this Agreement shall become permanent, are not terminable, and cannot be affected by any corporate action without Your consent, except as is provided for in Section 4 of this Agreement with respect to death or normal retirement, termination by the
Company for cause, or Your disability. The previous sentence shall not restrict the Company’s right to give notice of non-renewal of this Agreement as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 3. 
  
 4.  Termination.    This Agreement may be terminated upon the occurrence of any of the following
events: 
  
 A.  Expiration of the term of this Agreement, unless renewed in accordance with
Section 3 above; 
  
 B.  Your death, however prorating of bonus (to the extent earned by
You prior to Your death) and options (to the extent vested as of the date of Your death) would transfer to Your estate subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s option plan and Your Stock Option Certificate; 
  
 C.  Your disability; “Disability” means the inability of the Executive, due to the condition of the
Executive’s physical, mental or emotional health, to regularly and satisfactorily perform the duties of the Executive’s responsibilities as an executive of the Company or its subsidiaries for a continuous period in excess of three months.
If the existence of the Executive’s Disability shall be disputed by either party, the determination by a physician duly licensed to practice medicine that such Disability exists shall be necessary to establish such Disability, unless the
Executive refuses to submit to appropriate examinations at the request of the Board, in which case the determination of the Board in good faith and after the requisite period of Disability shall be conclusive as to whether such Disability exists;

  
 D.  Mutual written agreement between You and the Company at any time to terminate this
Agreement; 
  
 E.  For Cause, as defined below,: 
  
 1.  Your material breach of this agreement, provided that, if such breach is curable, You shall be entitled to

turpitude; or 
  
 6. Your resignation for other than Good Reason or failure to perform services under

 F.  Your resignation for Good Reason which shall exist if the Company,
without Your written consent, (i) takes any action which is inconsistent with, or results in the reduction of, Your then current title, duties or responsibilities, (ii) reduces Your then current Base Salary, (iii) reduces the benefits to which You
are entitled on the Effective Date, unless a similar reduction is made for other executive employees, (iv) requires You to relocate more than seventy-five (75) miles from the location of the Company’s offices on the Effective Date, or (v)

 G.  Upon giving You ninety (90) days written notice, termination of employment by the Company at any time for any reason not defined in

 5.  Post Termination Payment Obligations. 
  
 A.  If this Agreement terminates for any of the reasons set forth in subsections 4A, 4B, 4D or 4E of this
Agreement, then You shall be entitled to receive Your Base Salary through the termination date and thereafter the Company shall have no further obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the obligation to pay You any portion of

payments (to the extent earned by You prior to Your termination date). If this Agreement terminates for the reason set forth in subsection 4C of this Agreement by reason of an injury which occurs in the course of the performance of Your duties for
the Company, then the Company shall pay You a separation payment equal to ninety (90) days base salary in effect as of the date of termination, less the monthly 
 

 4 







 amount that you are entitled to receive under any and all long-term and short-term disability insurance policies, payable
in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices. 
  
 C.  If, within twelve

 The Company will have the
right to obtain and hold in its own name copyrights, patents, design registrations, proprietary database rights, trademarks, rights of publicity, and any other protection available in the Work Product. At the Company’s request, You agree to

all other remedies available at law or in equity. 
  
 16.  Arbitration With Respect to Certain
Matters.    The parties agree to submit to arbitration, in accordance with these provisions, any claim or controversy arising from or related to the alleged breach of this Agreement, provided that claims or disputes of the
types described in Section 13 above shall not be subject to this Section 16. The parties further agree that, other than with respect to claims or disputes of the types described in Section 13 above, the arbitration process agreed upon herein shall
be the exclusive means for resolving all disputes made subject to arbitration herein, but that no arbitrator shall have authority to expand the scope of these arbitration provisions. Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted under the Model
Employment Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and the parties agree that the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the proceedings. Either party may invoke arbitration procedures herein by written notice for arbitration
containing a statement of the matter to be arbitrated. The parties shall then have fourteen (14) days in which they may identify a mutually agreeable, neutral arbitrator. After the fourteen (14) day period has expired, the parties shall prepare and
submit to the AAA a joint submission, with each party to contribute half of the appropriate administrative fee. In the event the parties cannot agree upon a neutral arbitrator within fourteen (14) days after written notice for arbitration is
received, their joint submission to the AAA shall request a panel of nine arbitrators who are practicing attorneys with professional experience in the field of employment law, and the parties shall attempt to select an arbitrator from the panel
according to AAA procedures. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the arbitration hearing shall take place in Atlanta, Georgia at a place designated by the AAA. All arbitration procedures hereunder shall be confidential. The arbitrator shall have
authority to include all or any portion of costs of such arbitration in an award. The arbitrator shall not have the power or authority to award indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages. The arbitrator may include
equitable relief. Any arbitration awarded shall be accompanied by a written statement containing a summary of the issues in controversy, a description of the award, and an explanation of the reasons for the award. It is understood and agreed by the
parties that their agreements herein concerning arbitration do not otherwise alter the terms and conditions of employee’s employment as provided by this agreement. 
  
 17.  Waiver.    Any Party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of that or any other
provision. Any Party’s waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not act as a waiver of any other breach.

including Exhibits A and B which are incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any prior communications,

sign this Agreement. 
  
 19.  Amendments.    This Agreement may not be amended
or modified except in writing signed by both Parties. 
  
 20.  Survival; Successors and
Assigns.    This Agreement shall be assignable to, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Company’s successors and assigns, including, without limitation, successors through merger, name change, consolidation, or sale of
a majority of the Company’s stock or assets, and shall be binding upon You. A Change of Control shall not affect the terms of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any
successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid or otherwise. You shall not have the right to assign Your rights or obligations under this Agreement. The covenants contained in Sections 8A, 8B and 8C of this Agreement shall survive
