      Voluntary termination by Executive Officer following change in
      control





Within
      180 days following a “change in control” of the Company (as defined below), and

      Executive Officer’s termination of her employment shall be effective on the
      thirty-first day after the date on which the written notice is
      delivered.





In

      event that Executive Officer shall elect to terminate her employment pursuant
      to
      this paragraph 7(b), the Company shall pay her, as separation pay, one year’s
      worth of her gross annual salary, as defined in 4(a) herein, as of the date
      upon
      which her termination becomes effective plus twelve (12) months worth of

      such
      assets.

      event that the payments to Executive Officer pursuant to this paragraph 7(b)
      constitute parachute payments (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal
      Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), and if the sum of these payments
      and all other parachute payments received or to be received by Executive Officer
      in connection with the change in control equal or exceed three (3) times her
      base amount (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) for the calendar
      year
      in which the change in control occurs, then the payments to Executive Officer
      pursuant to this paragraph 7(b) shall be reduced to the extent necessary to
      ensure that the sum of all parachute payments is one dollar ($1.00) less than
      three (3) times such base amount.

      entitled as of the effective date of such termination, and no such right,
      payment, option or benefit will be reduced or otherwise affected by reason
      of
      such termination.

      done
      or omitted to be done by Executive Officer in good faith and for a purpose

      or
      part thereof, but only to the extent that such provision or part is found in
      arbitration or by such court to be unenforceable. The Company and Executive

      shall in no way affect either party’s full right to require such performance or
      compliance at any time thereafter. The waiver by either party of a breach of
      any
      provision of this Agreement shall not be taken or held to be a waiver of any

      itself.

      Agreement .
      This
      Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Executive Officer
