Good Cause - The Company shall have the right to terminate the
Executive's employment for "Good Cause." For purposes of this
Agreement, the Company shall have "Good Cause" to terminate the
Executive's employment only upon the Executive's: (I) conviction
of a felony or willful gross misconduct that, in either case,
results in material and demonstrable damage to the business or
reputation of the Company; or (II) willful and continued failure
to perform his duties (other than such failure resulting from the
Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness) within
ten business days after the Company delivers to him a written
demand for performance that specifically identifies the actions
to be performed.  For purposes of this Section, no act or failure
to act by the Executive shall be considered "willful" if such act
is done by the Executive in the good faith belief that such act
is or was to be beneficial to the Company, or such failure to act
is due to the Executive's good faith belief that such action
would be materially harmful to the Company. "Good Cause" shall
not exist unless and until the Company has delivered to the
Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by a majority of
the Board (excluding the Executive for purposes of determining
such majority) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such
purpose after reasonable (but in no event less than thirty days')
notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive,
together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board, finding
that in the good faith opinion of the Board that "Good Cause"
exists, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. This
Section shall not prevent the Executive from challenging in any
court of competent jurisdiction the Board's determination that
"Good Cause" exists or that the Executive has failed to cure any
act (or failure to act) that purportedly formed the basis for the
Board's determination.

5.  Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is intended to bind
and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive and
the Company and their respective legal representatives,
successors and assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the
duties or obligations hereunder shall be assignable by Executive.

6.  Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be
interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of California. Each of the Company and Executive consents
to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in
California, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement.

7.  Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Agreement are
for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part
of this Agreement for any purpose or in any way affect the
interpretation of this Agreement.

8.  Severability.  If any provision, paragraph or subparagraph
of this Agreement is adjudged by any court to be void or
unenforceable in whole or in part, this adjudication shall not
affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement.

9.  Complete Agreement.  This document embodies the complete
agreement and understanding among the parties, written or oral,
which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way
and shall not be amended orally, but only by the mutual agreement
of the parties hereto in writing, specifically referencing this
