<PAGE>

               Termination, (2) within ten (10) business days of January 1 of
               the year following the Date of Termination, (3) as salary
               continuation with equal weekly payments during the termination
               payment period as set forth in subsection (a) above, or (4)
               through the purchase of an annuity that has a value equal to the

               as outlined in option (1), within thirty (30) days of the Date of
               Termination. Payments made under this subsection (c) shall not be
               taken into account under any retirement plan of the Company. If
               the Executive should die while any amounts are still payable to
               him hereunder, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided
               herein, shall be paid to the Executive's surviving spouse, or, if
               she is not then living, to the Executive's estate."

          7.   Subsections (g) and (h) of Section 9 are renumbered (i) and (j),
respectively.

          8.   There is added to Section 9 subsection "(g)" as follows:

               "With respect to the Executive's continued coverage under the
               Company's health insurance plan, or successor plan, the
               Executive's `qualifying event' for purposes of the Consolidated
               Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA") shall be his
               Date of Termination from the Company.  If the Executive elects to
               continue health plan coverage pursuant to COBRA, the Company
               shall pay the Executive's COBRA premiums for a period terminating
               on the earlier of (i) the end of the termination payment period
               (as set forth in subsection (a) above) or (ii) the cessation of
               COBRA eligibility and coverage for the Executive (without regard
               to any other COBRA qualified beneficiary).  The Company's
               obligation with respect to

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

               this subsection (g) shall continue only if the Executive
               satisfies on a timely basis all of his obligations under COBRA.
               As applicable, continued coverage under this subsection (g) shall
               be coordinated with corresponding benefits that the Executive may
               be eligible to receive under the Officer Retiree Medical Plan."

          9.   There is added to Section 9, subsection (h) as follows:

               "Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any of the payments
               provided for in this Agreement, together with any other payments
               which the Executive has the right to receive from the Company,
               would constitute an `excess parachute payment' (as defined in
               Internal Revenue Code Section 280G as it may be amended),
               payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by an amount
               sufficient to avoid the payment of an excess parachute payment;
               provided, however, that the determination as to whether any
               reduction in the payments otherwise owing under this Agreement
               pursuant to this provision is necessary shall be made jointly by
               the Executive and the Company in good faith, based on then-
               effective final and proposed Treasury regulations, and published
               rulings; provided further, that an independent qualified national
               accounting firm selected by mutual agreement of the parties shall
               provide conclusive calculations in the event the parties cannot
               jointly agree."

the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to conflicts of
laws principles, and of the United States.

Section 5.2 Notices.

     Any notice or other communication provided for in this Agreement shall be
in writing and sent to the address listed under each party's signature hereto or
at such other address a party may from time to time in writing designate.  Each
such notice or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by
telecommunication, when transmitted to the applicable number so specified

Section 5.3 Amendments and Waiver.

     No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
the parties. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Failure by either
party, at any time, to require performance by the other party or to claim a
breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of
any right accruing under this Agreement, nor shall it affect any subsequent
breach or the effectiveness of this Agreement or any part hereof, or prejudice
either party with respect to any subsequent action.

Section 5.4 Severability.

     If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect,
and if any provision is held invalid or unenforceable with respect to particular
circumstances, it shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect in all
other circumstances, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Section 5.5 Integration.

     This Agreement, together with any exhibits and schedules hereto,
constitutes the entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the
parties in connection therewith.

Section 5.6 Arbitration.

     Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, its
enforcement or interpretation, or because of an alleged breach, default, or
misrepresentation in connection with any of its provisions, other than a
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to a calculation pursuant to any
of its provisions, shall be submitted to arbitration, to be held in Los Angeles
County, California in accordance with California Civil Procedure Code Sections
1282-1284.2. In the event either party institutes arbitration under this
Agreement, the party prevailing in any such arbitration shall be entitled, in
addition to all other relief, to reasonable attorneys' fees relating to such
arbitration. The non-prevailing party shall be responsible for all costs of the
arbitration, including but not limited to, the arbitration fees, court reporter
fees, etc.

Section 5.7 Further Assurances.

     Each party hereto agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all
further instruments, and to do any and all further acts, as may be necessary or
appropriate to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement, and each
party will use its best efforts to obtain any and all third party consents or
approvals necessary or useful for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.8 Headings.

Section 5.9 Counterparts.

     This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different
parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and
delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall
constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from
multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all
signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

                               7 September 2000

1.   Use of convection of working fluids and TE (thermoelectric) materials to
     reduce conductive thermal power losses in TE system cooling, heating and
     power generation.

2.   Use of thermal isolation of TE elements and control of flow direction to
     enhance TE system efficiency in cooling and heating modes.

3.   Combined convection and thermal isolation to enhance cooling, heating and
     power generation.

4.   Transient sequential powering of TE elements to reduce conductive losses in
     cooling and heating systems.

5.   Transient powering combined with variable electric path length to reduce
     resistive and conductive power loss in cooling and heating systems.

6.   Transport of TE materials perpendicular to current flow to reduce
     conductive losses in cooling and heating systems.

7.   Transport with variable electrical path length to reduce resistive and
     conductive power loss in cooling and heating systems.

8.   Rotational transport of TE materials in a staged cooling system to increase
     the coefficient of performance by reducing conductive power loss.

9.   TE convective power generation cycle combined with another power cycle
     (which employs a working fluid) to increase overall system efficiency.
