TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AGREEMENT 




     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals, and for and in consideration of the
mutual promises set forth below and in the Merger Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:



     1. Effective Date. The “Effective Date” shall mean the date on which occurs
the Closing. In the event that the Closing does not occur, this Agreement shall not become
effective.



     2. Consulting Period. The Company hereby engages Consultant as a consultant, subject
to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, for the period commencing at the Closing and ending
on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Consulting Period”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Consulting Period shall be subject to earlier termination
pursuant to Section 7 hereof.



     3. Consulting Services. Consultant shall render such consulting services (the
“Consulting Services”) during the Consulting Period as the Company may reasonably request
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided, however that other than reasonable
services to assist in the integration of the various entities and businesses of the Company and its
subsidiaries, Consultant’s duties shall be consistent with those services previously rendered by
Consultant to the













 




Company. Consultant shall report to the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors
(the “Board”) of the Company. The Consultant shall be required to provide services, to the
extent requested by the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board, up to 40 hours per week during
the first year of the Consulting Period, up to 30 hours per week during the second year of the
Consulting Period, and up to 20 hours per week during the third through fifth years for the
Consulting Period. The Consulting Services shall be performed at such place(s) as shall be
mutually agreed upon by the Consultant and the Company. Consultant shall devote his reasonable
best efforts, skill and attention to the performance of such Consulting Services, which may include
travel reasonably required in the performance of such Consulting Services provided that any such
travel will be with the use of Company aircraft at Company expense. Consultant shall be an
independent contractor in providing the Consulting Services; as such, except as prohibited by the
Non-Competition Agreement, Consultant is free to engage in other services and/or employment.




     4. Consulting Fee. As compensation for the Consulting Services, Consultant shall
receive a fee of U.S. $3,000,000.00 (Three Million dollars) per annum (the “Consulting
Fee”) for each year of the Consulting Period (i.e., for five years) and shall be payable
starting the Effective Date. The Consulting Fee shall be paid to the Consultant no less frequently
than on a monthly basis for sixty months which monthly amount, for the avoidance of doubt, will be
equal to the annual Consulting Fee divided by twelve (12). Consultant shall be responsible for, and
shall pay, any and all taxes on such sums.



     5. Other Compensation and Benefits.



          5.1. Clubs and Life and Other Insurance. The Company shall transfer to Consultant,
within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, all right, title or other ownership interest the
Company may have in (i) any club memberships in the name of Consultant provided by the Company
immediately prior to the Effective Date for use by Consultant and (ii) any life and/or other
insurance owned by the Company on Consultant’s life and/or otherwise with respect to the Consultant
immediately prior to the Effective Date, if permitted under the terms of such memberships and
policies or otherwise permitted by the relevant organizations and insurance companies.




          5.2. Offices and Administrative Assistant. During the Consulting Period, Consultant
shall be entitled to: (i) occupy the offices currently maintained by the Company for the
Consultant, including without limitation in the Company’s office buildings in New York City,
Houston and Palm Beach that he occupied and/or used immediately prior to the Effective Date; (ii)
use the parking spaces that he was assigned and/or used immediately prior to the Effective Date,
expressly including at the Company’s offices in New York City, Houston and Palm Beach that he was
assigned and/or used immediately prior to the Effective Date; and (iii) receive administrative
assistant services of the same type and to the same extent as such services were provided to him
immediately prior the Effective Date and be permitted to retain and/or select his administrative
assistant the cost for which shall be borne by the Company. In addition, the Consultant will be
afforded continued use, with full technical support, all at the expense of the Company, of home
office and mobile electronic equipment, including without limitation personal computers,
blackberry, and mobile telephones and electronic communications devices, no less favorable than
currently afforded to the Consultant, and at the election of the Consultant to be the same such
equipment as currently used by the Consultant.

          5.3. Health and Related Benefits. During the Consulting Period and at the Company’s
expense, Consultant, at Consultant’s election and to the fullest extent permitted by law,
shall be eligible to participate in any and all benefit plans available to employees (including,
but not limited to, medical and dental insurance, retirement plans, disability insurance and life
insurance) implemented by the Company or Parent from time to time for its executive employees and
their families. Such employment benefits shall be governed by the applicable plan documents,
insurance policies, and/or employment policies, and may be modified, suspended, or revoked in
accordance with the terms of the applicable documents or policies; provided, however, if Consultant
is not be eligible to participate in any employee benefit plan, the Company shall reimburse
Consultant for the costs he incurs to separately secure such benefits, such reimbursement to
Consultant to be made by the Company on a grossed-up basis so that the net amount, after taxes, is
equal to the sum Consultant is required to pay to acquire such benefits.




          5.4. Private Air Travel. During the Consulting Period, to ensure his
reasonable availability for purposes of this Agreement and for the compensation and benefits of
Consultant, Consultant shall be entitled to the use of Company aircraft at Company expense for any
and all business and personal travel on terms no less favorable than currently (immediately prior
to the time this Agreement is entered into) afforded to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
and his spouse and invitees, with the type of aircraft and aggregate annual hours of air travel
expressly to be no less favorable than currently afforded, but with the understanding that the
Consultant (and his spouse and invitees) and Eric D. Herschmann (and his family and invitees)
together will be entitled each year to no more than the current aggregate annual hours of air
travel afforded to them by the Company immediately prior to the time this Agreement is entered
into. When the Company aircraft is used by the Consultant for personal transportation, the
Consultant shall be imputed income based on the value of the use of the aircraft per the Standard
Industry Fare Level method, adjusted accordingly.




          5.5. Time Off. While the Consultant is not an employee of the Company, he
shall nonetheless be entitled to time off (the equivalent of vacation were Consultant to be an
employee) of a minimum of thirty (30) days each calendar year, separate and apart from religious
and national holidays, during which he will not be asked to perform any Consulting Services.




     6. Expenses. Upon presentation of documentation reasonably acceptable to the
Company, the Company shall reimburse, or if requested by Consultant the Company shall advance,
Consultant for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (other than expenses for matters described
above, such as for air travel, which shall be considered pre-approved and paid for directly by the
Company) incurred by Consultant in connection with the performance of the Consulting Services
(“Expenses”) in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy in effect from
time to time; provided, however, that any single expense in excess of
$10,000 shall require prior approval by the Parent officer charged with expense review for the
Company.



     7. Termination of Consulting Period.



          7.1. Termination of Consulting Period. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof,
the Consulting Period and Consultant’s services as a consultant hereunder shall terminate, and,
except as otherwise specifically provided herein, this Agreement shall terminate:




               (a) upon the death or disability of Consultant;



3









 





               (b) for “Cause” (as defined in Section 7.2 below), upon a Notice of
Termination given by the Company to Consultant after compliance with Section 7.4 below;



               (c) for “Good Reason” (as defined in Section 7.3 below), upon a Notice of
Termination given by Consultant to the Company after compliance with Section 7.4 below;



               (d) without “Cause,” upon a Notice of Termination given by the Company to
Consultant after compliance with Section 7.4 below;



               (e) upon Consultant’s voluntary resignation for any reason other than Good Reason,
upon a Notice of Termination given by Consultant to the Company after compliance with Section
7.4 below; or



               (f) on the expiration date of the Consulting Period.



          7.2. Cause. The Company shall have Cause to terminate the Consultant (and hence the
Consulting Period) if Consultant (a) willfully, materially and continually fails to substantially
perform the Consulting Services (other than a failure resulting from Consultant’s illness or
disability), (b) materially breaches the Non-Competition Agreement; or (c) willfully engages in
illegal conduct, gross misconduct, or a material and clearly established violation of the Company’s
written policies and procedures applicable to Consultant and henceforth provided to Consultant by
the Company or Parent to Consultant) which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company,
monetarily or otherwise; provided, however, that no termination of the Consulting
Period shall be for Cause under any circumstance until (x) there shall have been delivered to
Consultant a written notice authorized by three-quarters (3/4) of the members of the Board,
specifying in detail the particulars of Consultant’s conduct which allegedly violates (a), (b)
and/or (c) above (the “Written Notice”), (y) Consultant shall have been provided an opportunity to
be heard in person by at least three-quarters of the members of the Board (with the assistance and
appearance of Consultant’s counsel if Consultant so desires; provided that, Consultant shall be
entitled to recover from the Company the reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred at and in
preparation for such hearing), and (z) a resolution is adopted in good faith by three-quarters
(3/4) of such members of the Board confirming such violation; provided further,
that if the Company does not deliver to Consultant the Written Notice within sixty (60) days after
the any officer or Board member of the Company has knowledge that an event constituting Cause has
occurred, the event will no longer constitute Cause; and provided further that any such
conduct which allegedly by Consultant violates (a), (b) and/or (c) above continues unremedied by
Consultant for a period of at least sixty (60) days after such Written Notice has been delivered to
Consultant specifying the manner in which Consultant has conducted himself that allegedly
constitutes Cause. No act, nor failure to act, on Consultant’s part, shall be considered “willful”
unless he has acted or failed to act with an absence of good faith and without a reasonable belief
that his action or failure to act was in the best interest of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary,
no failure to perform by Consultant after Notice of Termination is given by or to Consultant shall
constitute Cause.




          7.3. Good Reason. Consultant may terminate the Consulting Period for Good Reason upon
the occurrence of a material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement, including
without limitation any change in Consultant’s reporting line or duties or where Consultant may
perform such duties, and any failure of the Company or Parent, as applicable, to make timely
payment of the amounts and/or benefits due or to otherwise satisfy any of its obligations






4









 







to Consultant. Consultant must provide written notice to the Company of the existence of the
condition constituting “Good Reason” within a period not to exceed sixty (60) days after the
initial existence of the condition, and the Company must be provided a period of at least ten (10)
days during which it may remedy the condition if remediable and, if such condition is so remedied
within such period, Consultant shall not have the right to terminate the Consulting Period for Good
Reason; provided, however, that a subsequent breach of the same or a substantially similar nature
by the Company shall not entitle the Company to a right to remedy such repeated breach.




          7.4. Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Consulting Period by the Company
or by Consultant (other than termination as a result of Consultant’s death) shall be communicated
by written Notice of Termination to the other parties hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice setting forth the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon and describing in reasonable detail the facts and
circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Consulting Period under the
provision so indicated.




          7.5. Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean the date on which
the Consulting Period terminates, which shall be, if Consultant is terminated: (i) by his death,
the date of his death; (ii) for Cause, the date specified in the Notice of Termination if no cure
occurs; (iii) upon the expiration date of the Consulting Period, the last day of the Consulting
Period; and (iv) for any other reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination, which date
shall, in the case of a voluntary resignation without Good Reason by Consultant, be no later than
thirty (30) days after the Notice of Termination is given.




     8. Benefits Upon Certain Terminations.



          8.1. Termination without Cause, for Good Reason or upon Consultant’s Death or
Disability. Upon a termination of the Consulting Period: (i) by the Company without Cause
(including any lawful termination by the Company due to Consultant’s disability); (ii) by
Consultant for Good Reason; or (iii) by reason of Consultant’s death, Consultant, or Consultant’s
estate as the case may be, shall be entitled to all payments and/or benefits to which the
Consultant otherwise would be have entitled to pursuant to this Agreement had such events not have
occurred, except that at the election of Consultant, Consultant may require a cash payment in lieu
of in-kind benefits with such cash value to be determined by a third-party appraiser retained by
Consultant at the expense of the Company.




          8.2. Termination for Cause By Company or A Voluntary Resignation By Consultant Without
Good Reason. Upon the termination of the Consulting Period for Cause or a Voluntary
Resignation by Consultant without Good Reason: (i) the Consultant shall repay to the Company such
percentage of the Consulting Fee, if any, representing any excess Consulting Fee paid to Consultant
by the Company (determined by calculating the percentage of the five year Consulting Period
completed as of the date of such termination as compared to the percentage of the five years of
Consulting Fee paid to Consultant as of such date); (ii) the right to an office and assistant and
to private air travel shall terminate at the time of such termination; and (iii) health benefits
will be governed by COBRA to the extent permitted by law. The Company will promptly pay to
Consultant any incurred but unpaid or unreimbursed Expenses.




          8.3. No Mitigation. Consultant shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount
of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking consultancy and/or






5









 







employment or otherwise, and the amount of any payment or other benefit provided for under
this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by Consultant as the result of
consultancy and/or employment after the termination of the Consulting Period, or otherwise.




          8.4. Section 409A of the Code; Delay of Payments. The terms of this Agreement have
been designed to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), where applicable, and shall be interpreted
and administered in a manner consistent with such intent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, if any payment or benefit pursuant to this Agreement should be deemed to be
subject to an additional tax pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, the cash payments pursuant to
this Agreement shall be grossed up by the Company and promptly paid to Consultant to ensure that
the net amounts and benefits after any such tax received by the Consultant are no less than would
have been received had Section 409A of the Code not have been deemed to apply to such payments and
benefits.




     9. Parent’s Guarantee of Payment and Benefits. In the event that Consultant is
entitled to receive any payment and/or benefit under this Agreement from the Company and the
Company fails to timely make and/or provide such payment or benefit, Parent shall, within five
business days, satisfy the obligation of the Company to make or provide such payment or benefit.
To the extent applicable, this is a guarantee of payment not a guarantee of collection.



     10. Indemnification.



          10.1. The Company and Parent shall indemnify and hold Consultant harmless to the maximum
extent permitted by law against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable
expenses, including attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred by Consultant, in connection with the
defense of, or as a result of any action or proceeding or any appeal from any action or proceeding,
in which Consultant is made or is threatened to be made a party by reason that Consultant is or was
a consultant to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, at least to the same extent
that directors and officers of the Company are indemnified by the Company under the Company’s
by-laws as in effect from time to time. Such indemnification shall also include any attorneys’
fees Consultant incurs in connection with his attendance at and/or cooperation with the Company
and/or the Parent with respect to any threatened and/or pending lawsuit, arbitration, and/or
governmental, administrative and/or regulatory inquiry




          10.2. This indemnification shall be in addition to and not in lieu of the indemnifications
contained in the Merger Agreement and any other indemnification obligations which apply with
respect to Consultant’s roles with the Company prior to the Effective Date and shall continue in
effect to the extent provided in the Merger Agreement and such other indemnification agreements.




     11. Change of Control. The parties represent and acknowledge that the Merger Agreement
pursuant to which the Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company and, as a result of
which, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and the resulting termination
of Consultant’s employment with the Company, constitutes a Change of Control and requires the
Company, under any employment and/or other agreement Consultant has with the Company and/or
otherwise, to provide Consultant with full vesting of all the Consultant’s outstanding equity-based
compensation awards (including stock options, restricted stock, stock




6











 




appreciation rights and cash restricted units) granted under the Company’s stock and incentive
plans, as in effect from time to time.




     12. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or
permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given on the date of service if served personally on the party to whom notice is to be given
and acknowledged by written receipt, or on the seventh (7th) day after mailing if mailed (return
receipt requested), postage prepaid and properly addressed as follows:

agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Consultant, expressly to assume and agree to
perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company or Parent would
be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company or Parent,
as applicable,



7









 




to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a material
breach of this Agreement and shall entitle Consultant to compensation in the same amount and on the
same terms as Consultant would be entitled hereunder if Consultant terminated the Consulting Period
for Good Reason, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing the date on which any such
succession becomes effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As used in this Agreement,

Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Consultant’s personal or legal
representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.

of this Agreement to his designee or, if there be no such designee, to his estate.



     15. Amendment; Waiver. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or
discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by
Consultant or his legal representative and such officer(s) as may be specifically designated by the
Company and Parent. No waiver by a party hereto at any time of any breach by another party hereto
of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other
party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at
any prior or subsequent time.



     16. Invalid Provisions. Should any portion of this Agreement other than Section 4 be
adjudged or held to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such holding shall not have the effect of
invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Agreement and the parties hereby agree that the
portion so held invalid, unenforceable or void shall, if possible, be deemed amended or reduced in
scope, or otherwise be stricken from this Agreement to the extent required for the purposes of
validity and enforcement thereof.



     17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same
instrument.



     18. Governing Law Enforcement and Disputes. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the sale of Delaware without regard to its rules of
conflict of laws. Any dispute or controversy in any way arising under or in connection with
this Agreement shall be decided by arbitration conducted in New York County, New York, by three
arbitrators, in accordance with the rules and under the auspices of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators’ award in any court of
competent jurisdiction. All administration fees and arbitration fees shall be paid solely by the
Company. Notwithstanding the above, a party shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining
order, if appropriate, in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent a continuation of an
alleged violation. The prevailing party shall recover its or his reasonable attorneys’ fees and
costs in any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement.

     19. Captions. The use of captions and section headings herein is for purposes
of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation or substance of any provisions
contained herein.



     20. Tax Matters. Consultant agrees, upon the request of the Company and/or the
Parent, to provide any reasonable assistance to the Parent and/or the Company required to
demonstrate that Consultant’s services under this Agreement qualified as services by an independent
contractor and all appropriate taxes with respect to any amounts paid hereunder (including but not
limited to self-employment and income tax payments) have been paid.



     21. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Non-Competition Agreement
constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior and
contemporaneous promises, agreements, representations and understandings between and/or among the
parties. Consultant agrees that if the Merger is consummated, Consultant’s employment with the
Company will terminate at the Effective Date.



     22. Survival of Certain Provisions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Sections 8 through 21 hereof shall survive the
termination or expiration of the Consulting Period or this Agreement; provided however that
Consultant’s obligations to the Company and the Parent under this Agreement and the Non-Competition
Agreement shall cease if the Company and/or Parent fail to timely honor and/or breaches its/their
obligations hereunder.
