               B) “Territory” means the United States.



     9. Specific Performance



     Since the Company will be irreparably damaged if the provisions of Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof

or any other appropriate decree of specific performance. Such remedies shall not be exclusive and
shall be in addition to any other remedy which the Company may have.



     10. Tax Matters.



          10.1 All payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A

promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”)) by the Company to the Executive are intended to
comply with the requirements of Section 409A, and shall be interpreted consistent therewith.
Neither the Company nor the Executive, individually






8









 







or in combination, may accelerate any such deferred payment, except in compliance with Section
409A, and no amount shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it is permitted to be paid
under Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no amendment may be made to
this Agreement if it would cause the Agreement or any payment hereunder to not be in compliance
with the requirements of Section 409A. However, the terms set forth in this Agreement may be
reformed to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, while preserving to the extent
practicable the intended treatment of the original Agreement.




          10.2 In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or
otherwise payable to Executive by the Company (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the
meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then Executive’s benefits under this Agreement shall
be reduced as to such lesser extent as would result in no portion of such benefits and payments
being subject to the Excise Tax.

under this Section 10 shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the
“Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the

documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this
Section 10. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection
