  entity for a period of at least six months.
  <P>
    e) Certain Payments to the Executive during the
       --------------------------------------------
  Restriction Period. If the Executive's employment with
  -------------------
  the Company is terminated due to a Termination for Cause
  or a Resignation Other than for Good Reason, then, as
  consideration for the covenants set forth in Section
  11(a) and Section 11(d), the Company shall pay the
  Executive, for the duration of the Restriction Period,
  the salary (but not the bonus) he otherwise would have
  received under Section 3(a).  If the Executive's
  employment with the Company is terminated due to a
  Termination Without Cause or a Resignation for Good
  Reason, then, as consideration for the covenants set
  forth in Section 11(a) and Section 11(d), the Company
  shall pay the Executive the compensation set forth in
  Section 8(d). If the Executive's employment is
  terminated pursuant to Section 6(b), then the receipt

  Company pursuant to Section 6(c) will constitute the
  consideration for the covenants set forth in Section
  11(a) and Section 11(d). If the Restriction Period
  extends beyond the Employment Period, the Company
  shall continue to pay the Executive his then current
  salary until the end of the Restriction Period for
  that portion of the Restricted Period, which extends
  beyond the Employment Period. Except in the case of a
  Termination Without Cause or such Resignation for Good
  Reason, the Company may elect at any time during the
  Restriction Period upon thirty (30) days prior written
  notice to discontinue such salary payments, in which
  event the Executive shall be released from any further
  obligation to comply with the provisions of Sections
  11(a) and 11(d) herein.  If the Company fails to
  timely make any payment due under this Section 11(e)
  and if such failure continues for ten (10) business
  days after notice by the Executive to the Company of
  such failure, the Executive shall be released from any
  further obligation to comply with the provisions of
  Sections 11(a) and 11(d) herein.
  <P>
    (f) Injunctive Relief with Respect to Covenants. The
        --------------------------------------------
  Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and
  obligations of the Executive with respect to
  noncompetition, nonsolicitation, confidentiality and
  Company property relate to special, unique and
  extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of
  the terms of such covenants and obligations will cause
  the Company and its subsidiaries irreparable injury
  for which adequate remedies are not available at law.
  Therefore, the Executive agrees that the Company and
  its subsidiaries shall be entitled to an injunction,
  restraining order or such other equitable relief
  (without the requirement to post bond) as a court of
  competent jurisdiction may deem necessary or
  appropriate to restrain the Executive from committing
  any violation of the covenants and obligations
  contained in this Section 11. These injunctive
  remedies are cumulative and are in addition to any
  other rights and remedies the
  Company or its subsidiaries may have at law or in
  equity.
