(v)           full
vesting of all Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Restricted Shares

If and to
the extent the Company is not permitted under the terms of any applicable plan
or policy or applicable law to provide the benefits described in clause (iii)
above or Section 8(a)(iii) or 9(b)(iii) below, or if the provisions of such
benefits would cause any applicable plan to be deemed to be discriminating in
favor of highly compensated employees under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Company shall either (x) provide
equivalent benefits on an individual basis at no additional after-tax cost to
Executive (which may be accomplished by making payments to Executive sufficient

the insurance policy(ies) maintained pursuant to Section 5(d) for the applicable
period following termination of Executive's employment with the Company) or (y)
pay to Executive an amount sufficient to permit Executive to purchase equivalent
benefits at no additional after-tax cost to Executive.





If
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, if Executive
terminates his employment for Good Reason, if Executive's employment terminates
by reason of his death or if Executive is terminated for Disability (a
“Qualifying Termination”), then the Company shall continue health benefits to
Executive (and/or his spouse and eligible dependents, if any) equivalent to
those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans,
programs, practices and policies as made available to actively employed
executives of the Company (including, without limitation, co-pays, deductibles
and other required payments and limitations) as then in effect (or, if more
favorable, as in effect immediately prior to a Change in Control) (the “Welfare Plans”), for
a period of thirty-six months following such Qualifying Termination (the “Continuation
Period”).  If Executive does not make a timely election to
continue coverage under COBRA, the Continuation Period will be reduced by
eighteen (18) months.  If Executive is covered by health insurance of
a subsequent employer, the coverage provided under this Agreement will be
secondary to such other coverage.  Executive (or, where applicable,
his spouse and dependents) shall pay the full monthly premium cost of such
medical coverage for the Continuation Period.  The monthly premium
cost during the Continuation Period for Executive, spouse and dependents shall
be the monthly COBRA premium during the COBRA health care continuation coverage
period under section 4980B of the Code or, to the extent the COBRA coverage is
not in effect, such amount as is equal to the Company’s deemed cost of such
medical coverage for Executive and and/or his spouse and eligible dependents, if
any, which shall be determined actuarially by the Company’s advisors (the “Applicable
Premium”).  During the Continuation Period, the Company shall
pay Executive (or, where applicable, Executive’s spouse) an amount equal to the
135% of the Applicable Premium described above (the “Advance Premium”), as
in effect from time to time, which, subject to Section 13(d), shall be made in
advance on the first business day of each month, commencing with the month
immediately following Executive’s date of termination, provided that, subject to
Section 13(d), the first such payment shall be made within thirty (30) days
after Executive’s termination date.  The Company shall have no further
obligation to pay the Advance Premium after the earlier of: (A) Executive (or,
where applicable, his spouse and dependents) ceasing to participate in the
Welfare Plans and (B) the end of the Continuation Period.






(c)  Definition of
“Cause”.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause”
shall mean (i) Executive’s willful and continuing failure (except where due to
physical or mental incapacity) to substantially perform his duties hereunder or
refusal or failure to follow the lawful directives of the Board, in either case

or nolo

the commission by Executive of an act of fraud or embezzlement against the
Company or any affiliate; or (v) Executive’s willful material breach of any
material provision of this Agreement (as determined in good faith by the Board)
which is not remedied within 15 days after receipt of written notice from the
Company specifying such breach, provided that Executive shall be given the
opportunity to appear before the Board prior to the time such termination would
otherwise become effective.  For purposes of the preceding sentence,
no act or failure to act by Executive shall be considered “willful” unless done
or omitted to be done by Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief
that Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the
Company.




(d)  Definition of “Good
Reason”.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good
Reason” shall mean the occurrence, without Executive’s express written consent,
of: (i) any adverse change in Executive’s title agreed to or effected by the
Board, (ii) any material diminution in Executive’s employment duties,
responsibilities or authority, or the assignment to Executive of duties that are
materially inconsistent with his position, that is not cured within 15 days
after written notice thereof is received from Executive; (iii) any reduction in
Base Salary; (iv) a relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a
location inconsistent with Section 2 hereof that would unreasonably increase

failure of Executive to be nominated for election as a director of the Company
or the removal of Executive as a director of the Company by the Board other than
for cause; (vi) any willful material breach by the Company of any material
provision of this Agreement that is not cured within 15 days after written
notice thereof is received from Executive; or (vii) any termination of
employment by Executive during the thirty day period following the one year

Restricted Share awards shall provide (and if outstanding are hereby amended to
provide) that such awards shall accelerate upon an event described in clause (v)
that occurs following a termination of Executive's employment (other than a
termination for Cause).




(e)  In order
to be eligible to receive any Severance Payment pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof,
Executive must sign, prior to receiving such payment, a complete release of all

(i)           the
Accrued Amounts;





(ii)           a

business days of termination, equal to the Executive’s highest Base Salary

(iv)           the
health insurance benefits described in Section 7(b); and




(v)           any
Gross-Up Payment due in accordance with Section 9(c) hereof.




(c)  Gross-Up
Payment.  (i)                                                      Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be
determined that any payment, award, benefit or distribution (or any acceleration
of any payment, award, benefit or distribution) by the Company (or any of its
affiliated entities) or any entity which effectuates a Change in Control to or
for the benefit of Executive (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required
under this Section 5(c)) (the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to
such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties,
are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Company
shall pay to Executive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount
such that after payment by Executive of all taxes (including any Excise Tax)
imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up
Payment equal to the sum of (x) the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments and (y)
the product of any deductions disallowed because of the inclusion of the
Gross-Up Payment in Executive’s adjusted gross income and the highest applicable
marginal rate of federal income taxation for the calendar year in which the
Gross-Up Payment is to be made.  For purposes of determining the
amount of the Gross-Up Payment, Executive shall be deemed to (i) pay
federal income taxes at the highest marginal rates of federal income taxation
for the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, (ii) pay
applicable state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation
for the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made, net of the
maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction
of such state and local taxes and (iii) have otherwise allowable deductions
for federal income tax purposes at least equal to those which could be
disallowed because of the inclusion of the Gross-Up Payment in Executive’s
adjusted gross income.




(ii)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(c), if it shall be determined that
Executive is entitled to the Gross-Up Payment, but that the Parachute Value of
all Payments does not exceed the Safe Harbor Amount by the lesser of (A) 5% of
the Safe Harbor Amount and (B) $50,000, then no Gross-Up Payment shall be made
to Executive and the amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced so
that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe
Harbor Amount; provided, however, that in no event, shall such reduction exceed
$50,000.  The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if
applicable, shall be made by reducing the payments and benefits under the
following sections in the following order: (i) the accelerated vesting of equity
pursuant to Section 9(a)(ii), (ii) the cash payment under Section 9(b) and (iii)
the cash payment under Section 9(a)(i).  For purposes of reducing the
Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under this Agreement
(and no other Payments) shall be reduced.  If the reduction of the
amounts payable under this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9(c)(ii)
would not result in a reduction of the Parachute Value of all Payments to the
Safe Harbor Amount, no amounts payable under the Agreement shall be reduced
pursuant to this Section 9(c).  The Company’s obligation to make
Gross-Up Payments under this Section 9(c) shall not be conditioned upon
Executive’s termination of employment.




(iii)           Subject
to the provisions of Section 9(c)(i), all determinations required to be made
under this Section 9(c), including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is
required, the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized
in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by PriceWaterhouse Coopers
(the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations
both to the Company and Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the
receipt of notice from the Company or Executive that there has been a Payment,
or such earlier time as is requested by Executive or the Company (collectively,
the “Determination”).  In the event that the Accounting Firm is
serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting
the Change in Control, the Company and Executive shall jointly appoint another
nationally recognized public accounting firm to make the determinations required
hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting
Firm hereunder).  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall
be borne solely by the Company and the Company shall enter into any agreement
requested by the Accounting Firm in connection with the performance of the
services hereunder.  The Gross-Up Payment under this Section 9(c) with
respect to any Payments shall be made no later than thirty (30) days following
such Payment.  The Determination by the Accounting Firm shall be
binding upon the Company and Executive.  As a result of the
uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the
Determination, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been
made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”) or Gross-Up Payments
are made by the Company which should not have been made (“Overpayment”),
consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder.  In
the event that Executive thereafter is required to make payment of any Excise
Tax or additional Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of
the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment (together with
interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) shall be
promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive.  In
the event the amount of the Gross-Up Payment exceeds the amount necessary to
reimburse Executive for his Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the
amount of the Overpayment that has been made and any such Overpayment (together
with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code)
shall be promptly paid by Executive (to the extent he has received a refund if
the applicable Excise Tax has been paid to the Internal Revenue Service) to or
for the benefit of the Company.  Executive shall cooperate, to the
extent his expenses are reimbursed by the Company, with any reasonable requests
by the Company in connection with any contests or disputes with the Internal
Revenue Service in connection with the Excise Tax; provided that (i) the Company
shall bear and pay directly all legal and other costs and expenses of
Executive's representation in connection with such contest or dispute and (ii)
the Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless on the terms provided
above for any additional Excise Tax (including interest and penalties) imposed
as a result of such contest or dispute.





(v)           The
following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section
9(c).




(A)
            “Parachute
      Value” of a Payment shall mean the value of such Payment the date of the
      change of control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of the portion
      of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section
      280G(b)(2), as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of
      determining whether and to what extent the Excise Tax will apply to such
      Payment.




(B)
            The
      “Safe Harbor Amount” means 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount,” within
      the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the
Code.






(d)  Definition of "Change in
Control".  For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control”
means







(i)
            The
      acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of
      Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
      as amended (the “Exchange Act”))
      (a “Person”) of
      beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under
      the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of either (A) the then-outstanding
      shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company
      Common Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the
      then-outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote
      generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company
      Voting Securities”); provided, however, that,
      for purposes of this Section 9(d)(1), the following acquisitions
      shall not constitute a Change in Control: (i) any acquisition
      directly from the Company, (ii) any acquisition by the Company or
      (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust)
      sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliated
      Company;





(ii)
            Individuals
      who, as of the Effective Date, constituted the Board (the “Incumbent

      the Board; provided, however, that
      any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date whose
      election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was
      approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising
      the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a
      member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
      individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an
      actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or
      removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies
      or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the
    Board;





(iii)
            Consummation

      than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined
      voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
      generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the
      corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without
      limitation, a corporation that, as a result of such transaction, owns the
      Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either
      directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same

Executive will not, except as otherwise provided herein, engage or participate,
directly or indirectly as principal, agent, executive, employer, consultant,

conduct or management of, or own any stock or any other equity investment in or
debt of, any business which is competitive with any business conducted by the
Company.




(b)  For the
purpose of this Agreement, a business shall be considered to be competitive with
the business of the Company if such business is engaged in providing outsourced
commercialization services to the pharmaceutical industry or any other business
in which the Company is engaged at the time of termination of Executive’s
employment; provided that a pharmaceutical company shall not be deemed to be
competitive if the services Executive renders to such a company do not involve
providing outsourced commercialization services or any other business in which
the Company is engaged at the time of termination of Executive’s
employment.




(c)  During
the Non-Competition Period, Executive will not, for his own benefit or for the
benefit of any person or entity other than the Company, (i) solicit, or
assist any person or entity other than the Company to solicit any officer,
director, executive or employee of the Company to leave his/her employment,
(ii) hire or cause to be hired for Executive’s benefit any present or
former officer, director, executive or employee of the Company, or
(iii) engage any present or former officer, director, executive or employee
of the Company as a partner, contractor, sub-contractor, employee, consultant or
other business associate of Executive.




(d)  During
the Non-Competition Period, Executive will not (i) solicit, or assist any
person or entity other than the Company to solicit, any person or entity that is
a client of the Company, or has been a client of the Company during the twelve
(12) months prior to the date of termination of Executive’s employment, to
purchase outsourced commercialization services or any other products or services
the Company provides to a client, or (ii) interfere with any of Company’s
business relationships.




(e)  Executive
acknowledges that (i) the markets served by the Company are national in
scope and are not dependent on the geographic location of the executive
personnel or the businesses by which they are employed, and (ii) the above
covenants are manifestly reasonable on their face, and the parties expressly
agree that such restrictions have been designed to be reasonable and no greater
than is required for the protection of the Company.




(f)  Nothing
in this Agreement shall he deemed to prohibit Executive from owning equity or
debt investments in any corporation, partnership or other entity which is
competitive with the Company, provided that such
investments (i) are passive investments and constitute one percent (1%) or
less of the outstanding equity securities of such an entity the equity
securities of which are traded on a national securities exchange or other public
market and (ii) are approved by the Company.




(g)  The
parties to this Agreement mutually agree that, in recognition of Company’s
dependence on Executive’s experience to carry out its business plan and
Executive’s senior and key position in the Company, the restrictions detailed in
this Section 10 are necessary and appropriate to give effect to the
intended relationships of the parties.  Executive agrees that because
damages arising from violations of this Section 10 are extremely difficult
to quantify with certainty, injunctive relief will be necessary to effect the
intent of such Section.  Accordingly, Executive hereby consents to the
imposition of a preliminary or permanent injunction as a remedy to this breach
of this Section 10.




(h)  It is the
desire and intent of the parties hereto that the restrictions set forth in this
Section 10 shall be enforced and adhered to in every particular, and in the
event that any provision, clause or phrase shall be declared by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be judicially unenforceable either in whole or in part
– whether the limit be in duration, geographic coverage or scope of activities
precluded – the parties agree that they will mutually petition the court to
sever or limit the unenforceable provisions so as to retain and effectuate to
the greatest extent legally permissible the intent of the parties as expressed
in this Section 10.




(i)  For
purposes of Sections 10 and 11 of this Agreement, the “Company” shall be deemed
to refer to the Company and each of its subsidiaries.




Section
11.  Confidential
Information




.  (a)  Executive
shall not (for his own benefit or the benefit of any person or entity other than
the Company) use or disclose any of the Company’s trade secrets or other
confidential information.  The term “trade secrets or other
confidential information” includes, by way of example, matters of a technical
nature, “know-how”, computer programs (including documentation of such
programs), research projects, and matters of a business nature, such as
proprietary information about costs, profits, markets, sales, lists of
customers, and other information of a similar nature to the extent not available
to the public, and plans for future development.  After termination of
this Agreement, Executive shall not use or disclose trade secrets or other
confidential information unless such information becomes a part of the public
domain other than through a breach of this Agreement or is disclosed to
Executive by a third party who is entitled to receive and disclose such
information.




(b)  Upon the
effective date of notice of Executive’s or the Company’s election to terminate
this Agreement, or at any time upon the request of the Company, Executive (or
his heirs or personal representatives) shall deliver to the Company all
documents and materials containing either trade secrets and confidential
information relating to the Company’s business or privileged information, and
all documents, materials and other property belonging to the Company, which in
either case are in the possession or under the control of Executive (or his
heirs or personal representatives).




(c)  All
discoveries and works made or conceived by Executive during his employment by
the Company, jointly or with others, that relate to the Company’s activities
shall be owned by the Company.  The terms “discoveries and works”
include, by way of example, inventions, computer programs (including
documentation of such programs), technical improvements, processes, drawings,
and works of authorship, including sales materials which relate to wall media
products, sampling/comparing or services.  Executive shall promptly
notify and make full disclosure to, and execute and deliver any documents
requested by, the Company to evidence or better assure title to such discoveries
and works by the Company, assist the Company in obtaining or maintaining for
itself at its own expense United States and foreign patents, copyrights, trade
secret protection and other protection of any and all such discoveries and
works, and promptly execute, whether during his employment or thereafter, all
applications or other endorsements necessary or appropriate to maintain patents
and other rights for the Company and to protect its title
thereto.  Any discoveries and works which, within six (6) months after
the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company, are made, disclosed,
reduced to a tangible or written form or description, or are reduced to practice
by Executive and which pertain to work performed by Executive while with the
Company shall, as between Executive and the Company, be presumed to have been
made during Executive’s employment by the Company




Section
12.  Enforcement.  Executive
agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for any breach or threat of breach by
him of the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 hereof will be inadequate, and that
the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent
breaches of the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 hereof and to enforce
specifically the terms and provisions thereof, in addition to any other remedy
to which the Company may be entitled at law or equity.




Section
13.  Indemnification.  The Company shall
indemnify Executive against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, expenses
(including attorneys’ fees) judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
incurred by Executive in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding
(whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative), including any action
by or in the right of the Company, by reason of any act or omission to act in
connection with the performance of his duties hereunder to the full extent that
the Company is permitted to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent
against the foregoing under applicable law.  The Company shall at all
times cause Executive to be included, in his capacity hereunder, under all
liability insurance coverage (or similar insurance coverage) maintained by any
of the Company from time to time.




Section
14.  Attorney’s
Fees and Costs.  In the event Executive institutes any action
to enforce his rights under this Agreement and prevails on at least one material
claim in such action, the Company shall pay Executive’s reasonable cost and
expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection with such
action.




Section
15.  Tax
Withholding.  Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may withhold from amounts
payable under this Agreement all Federal, state, local and foreign taxes that
are required to be withheld by applicable laws or regulations.




Section
16.  No
Waiver.  Executive’s or
the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of, or
to assert any right under, this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of
such provision or right or of any other provision of or right under this
Agreement.  Any provision of this Agreement may be waived by either
party;provided
that any waiver by any person of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective only if in writing and signed by the person against whom enforcement
of the waiver is sought and such waiver must specifically refer to this
Agreement and to the terms or provisions being modified or waived.




Section
17.  No
Mitigation.  In no event shall
Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take other action by way of
mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement and such amounts shall not be subject to offset or otherwise
reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment.  The
Company’s obligation to make any payment pursuant to, and otherwise to perform
its obligations under, this Agreement shall not be affected by any offset,
counterclaim or other right that the Company may have against Executive for any
reason.




Section
18.  Section
409A.   The parties
acknowledge and agree that, to the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be
interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the
Department of Treasury Regulations and other interpretive guidance issued
thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance
that may be issued after the Effective Date (“Section 409A”).  The
Company shall take, and Executive shall cooperate with the Company in taking,
all steps reasonably necessary to have such benefits not be deferred
compensation arrangements under Section 409A, including adopting such amendments
to this Agreement and appropriate policies and procedures, including amendments
and policies with retroactive effect, that are reasonably necessary or
appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided by
this Agreement, provided that (i) the Company will not be required to take any
such steps that impose any material additional costs on the Company and shall
not take any such steps that impose any material additional costs on Executive
(unless Executive otherwise consents thereto) and (ii) the Company will not be
liable for the failure to take any such steps or for the imposition of any tax
or penalty pursuant to Section 409A.




Without limitation of the preceding
paragraph, the parties agree that:




(i)  With
respect to the time period within which Executive may exercise any outstanding
stock options or stock appreciation rights, the parties agree to avoid the
imposition of Section 409A, Executive shall be entitled to exercise such options
and rights through the earliest of (i) the maximum date that is permitted under
Section 409A, (ii) the second anniversary of the date of Executive’s termination
or death or Disability, as applicable (or any longer period during which
executive officers generally are permitted to exercise stock options or stock
appreciation rights under such circumstances) and (iii) if Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive other than for
Good Reason (and not by reason of death or Disability), Executive shall be
entitled to exercise such options and rights through such date as is prescribed
under the applicable incentive plan and grant documentation, and further
provided that in no event will the option or stock appreciation right remain
exercisable beyond its original term.




(ii)  For
purposes of Section 9(c) and Section 14 of this Agreement, the Company shall pay
the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm and/or the legal fees and expense
incurred as a result of any contest under Section 14 not later than the end of
the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related work is
performed or the expenses are incurred by the Accounting Firm or Executive, as
applicable, and the Company shall pay all other amounts that it is required to
pay to or on behalf of Executive under Section 9(c) of this Agreement not later
than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the
related Taxes are remitted to the applicable taxing authority.  The
amount of such fees and expenses that the Company is obligated to pay in any
given calendar year shall not affect the legal fees and expenses that the
Company is obligated to pay in any other calendar year, and Executive’s right to
have the Company pay such legal fees and expenses may not be liquidated or
exchanged for any other benefit.




(iii)  Subject
to paragraph (iv) below, except as otherwise provided herein, each lump sum
payment that is to be made pursuant to this Agreement, other than the payments
described in Sections 7(b) and 8(a) of this Agreement, shall be made not later
than ninety (90) days following the date of the event giving rise to such lump
sum cash payment.




(iv)  If
Executive is a “specified employee,” defined under Section 409A and as
determined by the Company in good faith in accordance with the Company’s
policies, on the date of his termination from employment with the Company, to
the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A, cash amounts to be
paid under Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement on account of Executive’s
termination of employment for any reason other than death (other than Accrued
Amounts) and any other amounts deemed to be “nonqualified deferred compensation”
under Section 409A shall be paid to Executive on the earlier of (i) the first
business day after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s
“separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and (ii)
Executive’s death subsequent to Executive’s termination of employment for any
reason other than death, in each case, with interest from the date on which
payment would otherwise have been made, calculated at the applicable federal
rate provided under Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code (“Interest”).




(v)  Any
Gross-Up Payment described in Section 9(c) and any payments or reimbursements of
life or health insurance expenses pursuant to Section 7(b) shall be made by the
end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the related
taxes are remitted to the taxing authority by Executive.




(vi)  Any
payment to be made pursuant to Section 9(a) of this Agreement shall be made upon
the Change in Control but in no event later than two and one-half (2 1⁄2) months
following the year in which the Change in Control occurred.




(vii)  Each
of the payments described in this Agreement shall be classified as a “separate
payment” under Section 409A. As used in this Agreement, a “termination of
employment” (or words of similar meaning) shall mean a “separation from service”
under Code Section 409A (and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder)
and, subject to Section 13(d) of this Agreement, any benefit or amount to be
paid to, or with respect to, Executive, shall not be made until Executive has a
“separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Code




Section
19.  Advance
Notice of Prospective Employment.  Executive agrees that
following the termination of his employment, prior to accepting employment with,
or agreeing to perform services for, any entity that competes with the Company,
he will notify the Company in writing of Executive’s intentions so as to provide
the Company with the opportunity to assess whether Executive’s employment or
retention may potentially violate any provisions of this Agreement.




Section
20.  Miscellaneous
Provisions.




(a)  Notices.  All
notices required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon deposit with (i) the United
States Postal Service, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or (ii)
a reliable overnight courier service, addressed to the other party at the
address set forth above (in the case of the Company,
"Attention:  Chairman of the Compensation Committee").




(b)  Pronouns.  Whenever
the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the
corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular forms of
nouns and pronouns shall include the plural, and vice versa.

Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, the Employment Agreement dated as of May 9, 2006
between Executive and the Company, as heretofore
amended.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all prior grant or award
agreements relating to stock options and restricted stock will remain in effect
except to the extent explicitly modified by this Agreement.




(d)  Amendment.  This
Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by
both the Company and Executive.




(e)  Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to
its conflict of law principles.




(f)  Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of both parties and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the
obligations of Executive are personal and shall not be assigned or delegated by
him.




(g)  Waiver.  No
delays or omissions by the Company or Executive in exercising any right under
this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of that or any other
right.  A waiver or consent given by the Company or Executive on any
one occasion shall be effective only in that instance and shall not be construed
as a bar or waiver of any right on any other occasion.




(h)  Captions.  The
captions appearing in this Agreement are for the convenience of reference only
and in no way define, limit or affect the scope or substance of any section of
this Agreement.




(i)  Severability.  In
case any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court with jurisdiction
over the parties to this Agreement to be invalid, illegal or otherwise
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall in no way be affected or impaired thereby.




(j)  Cooperation of the
Parties.  The Company and Executive agree to make all
reasonable efforts to cooperate to insure compliance with this
Agreement.




(k)  Duration of
Terms.  The respective rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder shall survive any termination of Executive’ employment, the Term or
this Agreement to the extent necessary to give effect to such rights and
obligations.




(l)  Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one
and the same instrument.







IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first written
above.
