    1B. All
salary continuation/severance payments under Par. 1A hereof shall be payable in
accordance with Merrimac's normal payroll practices.

    


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    2A. Notwithstanding the schedule of
salary continuation/severance payments set forth in Par 1A(2) and (3) above, in
the event Condon files a claim with Unum for short term disability benefits and
such claim has been denied and all pre-litigation appeal periods have expired,
or in the event Condon decides not to file any claim with Unum for short term
disability benefits, and upon Condon’s written notice to Merrimac of the
foregoing, Merrimac shall provide salary continuation/severance pay of
$92,518.40, payable at the rate of $2,312.96 per week for forty (40) weeks, in
lieu of the payments set forth in Par. 1A(2) and (3) above; provided, however,
such salary continuation/severance pay as set forth in this Par. 2A shall only
commence after the payment in full of all vacation pay set forth in Par. 1A(1)
above.  In the event any salary continuation/severance payments have
already been made to Condon, then the forty (40) weekly payments of salary
continuation/severance pay shall be equally and proportionately reduced to
account for such payments.  All salary continuation/severance payments
under Par. 2A shall be subject to applicable federal and state tax deductions
and withholdings.

    


    2B. Except for vacation pay, Condon
acknowledges that he is receiving the above described payments and benefits
under this Agreement that he would not otherwise be entitled to receive but for
the execution of this Agreement.  Condon further acknowledges and
agrees that no other wages, compensation, benefits, salary continuation or
severance pay, incentives, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, monies, damages
or relief, of any kind or nature whatsoever, are due him.

    


    2C.
Condon understands and agrees that Merrimac shall not make any payments or
provide any benefits under this Agreement until seven (7) days after Merrimac
has received this document duly executed by Condon.  As used in this
Agreement, the term "days" shall mean calendar days.

    


    3. In
consideration of the payments and benefits to be provided under this Agreement,
Condon hereby releases and forever discharges Merrimac, its subsidiaries,
affiliates and related entities, and the present and former officers, directors,
employees, trustees, fiduciaries,  administrators, agents, attorneys,
successors and assigns of Merrimac and its subsidiaries, affiliates and related
entities (collectively, the “Releasees”), from and against any and all claims,
demands, causes of action, suits, judgments, liabilities, damages, losses, costs
and expenses, of any kind or nature whatsoever, disputed or undisputed, known or
unknown, in law or in equity, which Condon ever had, now has, or hereafter may
have against the Releasees up to the date of execution of this Agreement,

harassment or retaliation; (d) any and all claims arising out of oral or written
representations, agreements, promises or assurances, or  breach of any
express or implied contract; (e) any and all claims arising out of or under any
of Merrimac’s policies, plans, programs, procedures, handbooks or manuals; (f)
any and all claims arising out of or under any of Merrimac’s stock purchase,
stock option, severance, salary continuation or other incentive or compensation
policies, plans or programs; (g) any and all claims arising out of or under any
federal or state disability or handicap laws, or any and all claims against the
Releasees for short term or long term disability benefits; (h) any and all
claims arising out of or under any Merrimac sponsored life, health or other
insurance policies, plans or programs; (i) any and all claims arising out of or
under any  Merrimac benefit or leave of absence policies, plans or
programs, or any employee benefit booklets; (j) any and all claims for
compensatory or punitive damages or attorneys fees or costs; or (k) any and all
claims arising out of or under any federal, state or local constitution,
statute, regulation, rule or principle of common law.  Condon further
understands and acknowledges that he is not releasing any claims against the
Releasees that may arise after the date of execution of this Agreement. This
general release excludes any claim by Condon for accrued and vested rights under
the Merrimac sponsored 401(k) Plan, or any claim by Condon against Unum
insurance carrier for short term or long term disability benefits.  In
no event shall the Releasees be liable to Condon for any short term or long term
disability benefits, or in connection with Condon’s filing or processing any
claims for any disability benefits, or for any decisions, determinations, or
denials of coverage by the Unum insurance carrier.  Merrimac agrees to
complete any forms and provide any information reasonably required by Unum in
connection with any claim by Condon against Unum for short term or long term
disability benefits under the Unum Plan.

    4. Condon
acknowledges and agrees that neither this Agreement nor the execution thereof
nor the payment of any monies or provision of any benefits hereunder shall
constitute an admission of any liability or violation of any law, rule or
regulation by Merrimac, as to which Merrimac expressly denies any such liability
or violation.

    


    5A.
Condon represents that as of the date of his execution of this Agreement, he has

in any claim, complaint, action, suit, proceeding, charge, investigation or
grievance against any of the Releasees in any federal, state or local court, or
administrative, regulatory or investigative agency, or board, commission,
committee, legislative body or other forum, based on any actions or omissions of
any of the Releasees arising on or prior to the date of Condon’s execution of
this Agreement.

    


    11B.
Except as otherwise provided in Par. 6 hereof, Condon agrees that he shall not,
directly or indirectly, solicit, advise, encourage, induce, assist or support
any Person or Entity to file, institute, submit, present, assert, initiate or
participate in any claim, complaint, action, suit, proceeding, charge,

execution of this Agreement.

    


    12.
Condon agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, publish or otherwise
communicate in any manner whatsoever any comments, statements or other

derogatory, disparaging, harmful, injurious, discrediting, belittling or
defamatory to any of the Releasees, or to any of the Releasees’ products,
services, businesses, conduct of business, financial matters, securities,
reputations or shareholders.  As used in this Agreement, the term
“publish or otherwise communicate” shall include without limitation: (a) the
making of any oral, written, visual, computer, electronic, telephonic,
telegraphic or other communication of any comments, statements or information;
(b) the use of email communications or the Internet, including without
limitation the posting, presentation, communication or other transmittal of any
message, comment, statement or information on any Internet media, sites, message
boards, platforms, blogging sites, chat rooms, websites or otherwise, or (c) any
other form of public disclosure or communication of any comments, statements or

    13A.
Condon acknowledges that a breach of any of his representations or agreements
under Par. 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement will cause immediate and
irreparable injury to the Releasees for which a remedy at law or monetary
damages will be inadequate.  In the event of any such actual or
threatened breach by Condon, Condon acknowledges that the Releasees shall be
entitled to temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunctive relief: (a)
restraining such breach; (b) requiring Condon to comply with his representations
or agreements under Par. 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement; or (c)
granting an appropriate decree of specific performance.  Such
injunctive relief shall be granted without the necessity of: (d) showing actual
damages or that monetary damages would not afford an adequate remedy at law; or
(e) posting any bond or security.

    


    13B. In
the event Condon breaches any of his representations or agreements under Par. 5,
7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement and any of the Releasees asserts a claim
or counterclaim or files suit against Condon due to such breach, then any of the
Releasees shall also be entitled to recover from Condon damages, reasonable
attorneys fees and costs of suit if any of the Releasees prevail in such suit or
with respect to such claim or counterclaim.  Further, in the event
Condon breaches any of his representations or agreements under Par. 5, 7, 8, 9,
10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement, Condon shall forfeit and Merrimac shall
immediately cease making or providing any further payments or benefits under
this Agreement, and Merrimac shall be entitled to recover all payments and
