                           (C) Executive willfully breaches this Agreement,

employee of the Company.

         (b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8(a) above,
Executive's rights and the Company's obligations hereunder shall forthwith
terminate except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

         (c) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8(a)(i) or (ii)
hereof, Executive or his estate shall be entitled to receive:

                  (i) A cash payment equal to Executive's Base Salary hereunder

Company's obtaining insurance.

         (d) Whenever compensation is payable to Executive hereunder during a
time when he is partially or totally disabled and such disability (except for
the provisions hereof) would entitle him to disability income or to salary

hereafter provided by the Company or according to any Company policy in effect
at the time of such disability, the compensation payable to him hereunder shall
be inclusive of any disability income or salary continuation and shall not be in
addition thereto. If disability income is payable directly to Executive by an
insurance company under an insurance policy paid for by the Company, the amounts
paid to him by said insurance company shall be considered to be part of the
payments to be made by the Company to him pursuant to this Section, and shall
not be in addition thereto.

         (a) Executive is not elected or retained as President and Chief
Executive Officer and a director of the Company; or

         (b) The Company materially reduces Executive's duties and
responsibilities hereunder. Executive's duties and responsibilities shall not
be deemed materially reduced for purposes hereof solely by virtue of the fact
that the Company is (or substantially all of its assets are) sold to, or is
combined with, another entity.

10.      CONSEQUENCES OF BREACH BY THE COMPANY.

         (a) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, or if
the Company shall terminate Executive's employment under this Agreement in any
other way that is a breach of this Agreement by the Company, the following shall
apply:

                  (i) Executive shall receive a cash payment equal to the

under Subtitle A of the Code and under applicable state law is equal to (y) the
excess of all Excess Parachute Payments (excluding payments under this
sentence) over income tax thereon under Subtitle A of the Code and under
applicable state law.

talents and stature, in the event of termination by the Company hereunder
(except under Section 8(a)), or in the event of termination by Executive under
Section 9, before the end of the agreed term, the Company acknowledges and
agrees that the provisions of this Agreement regarding further payments of Base
Salary, Incentive Bonuses and the exercisability of stock options constitute
fair and reasonable provisions for the consequences of such termination, do not
constitute a penalty, and such payments and benefits shall not be limited to or
reduced by amounts Executive might earn or be able to earn from any other
employment or ventures during the remainder of the agreed term of this
Agreement.

unenforceable in any respect, in whole or in part, by judgment, order or decree
of any court or other judicial tribunal of competent jurisdiction, from which
judgment, order or decree no further appeal or petition for review is available,
the validity of the remaining covenants, conditions, terms and provisions
contained in this Agreement, and the validity of the remaining part of any term
or provision held to be partially invalid, illegal or unenforceable, shall in
no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

14.      WAIVER OR MODIFICATION. No waiver or modification of this Agreement or
of any covenant, condition or limitation herein contained shall be valid unless

the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and
supersedes any and all previous agreements between the parties, whether written
