          3.2.1 Specific Performance. The right and remedy to have the
Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent
jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the
Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Company and that
money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company.

          3.2.2 Accounting. The right and remedy to require the Executive to

accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by the Executive as
the result of any action constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.

     3.3 Severability of Covenants. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that
the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in duration and geographical
scope and in all other respects. If any court determines that any of the
Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall
be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions.

     3.4 Blue-Pencilling. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive
Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration or
geographical scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce
the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced
form, such provision shall then be enforceable.

     3.5 Enforceability in Jurisdictions. The Company and the Executive intend
to and hereby confer jurisdiction to enforce the Restrictive Covenants upon the
courts of any jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Restrictive
Covenants. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold the
Restrictive Covenants unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such scope or
otherwise, it is the

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

intention of the Company that such determination not bar or in any way affect
the right of the Company to the relief provided above in the courts of any other
jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Restrictive Covenants, as to
breaches of such Restrictive Covenants in such other respective jurisdictions,
such Restrictive Covenants as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this
purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants.

representatives shall be entitled to receive the Annual Salary earned up to the
date of the Executive's death, plus (a) unpaid Benefits accrued up to the date
of Executive's death, (b) an amount equal to the Executive's target annual

hundred and sixty-five (365), and (c) the benefits described under Section 5.7
hereof. In addition, the Company shall, for the remainder of the Term, continue
to provide the Executive's dependents with Benefits at the levels that were
applicable to the Executive and his dependents on the date immediately prior to

          4.2 Termination With Cause. The Company has the right, at any time
during the Term, subject to all of the provisions hereof, exercisable by serving
notice, effective on or after the date of service of such notice as specified
therein, to terminate the Executive's employment under this Agreement and
discharge the Executive for Cause. As used in this Section 4.2, the term "Cause"
shall mean and include (a) chronic alcoholism or drug addition, (b) deliberate
misappropriation of any material amount of money or other assets or properties
of the Company or any affiliate or successor thereof, (c) except where the
nonperformance is caused by the illness or other similar incapacity or
disability of the Executive, gross and continuing neglect in the substantial
performance of duties reasonably assigned to the Executive or the deliberate or
continuing performance of duties that are in contravention of the Board's
directions, that in either case, are not corrected promptly upon receipt by the
Executive of written notice delivered at the direction of the Board

                                       7
<PAGE>   8

specifically identifying the manner in which it is alleged that the Executive
has not substantially performed his duties and/or continued to perform duties in
contravention of the Board's instructions, (d) any willful and material breach
of any of the terms of this Agreement except where the breach is caused by the
illness or other similar incapacity or disability of the Executive or (e)
conviction of a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or conviction of a felony.
If the Company terminates the Executive's employment for Cause, the Company's
obligation to the Executive shall be limited solely to the payment of unpaid
Annual Salary accrued and Benefits vested up to the effective date specified in
the Company's notice of termination.

          4.3 Suspension upon Disability. If during the Term the Executive
becomes physically or mentally disabled and is entitled to receive benefits
under the Executive's supplemental disability insurance program, the Company may
at any time thereafter, by written notice to the Executive, suspend the term of
the Executive's employment hereunder and discontinue payments of the Annual
Salary for the duration of the disability. No action permitted by this Section
4.3 shall be deemed to extend the Term or to constitute a breach of this
Agreement. Any other provision of this Section 4.3 notwithstanding, if the
Executive is permanently disabled to such an extent that he is eligible to
receive benefits under his supplemental disability policy, then the Company
shall, for the remainder of the Term, continue to provide the Executive and his
dependents with Benefits at the levels that were applicable to the Executive and
his dependents immediately prior to his disability, or provide equivalent
benefits through separate insurance coverage and the Executive shall be entitled
to the benefits under Section 5.7 hereof.

          4.4 Termination Without Cause. The Company may, at any time during the
Term, terminate the Executive's employment without Cause by giving the Executive
notice of such termination, effective on or after the date of service of such
notice. In the event of such termination, the Executive shall be entitled to
receive the severance benefits described in Section 5, below.

          4.5 Termination for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his
employment hereunder for Good Reason at any time during the Term by giving the
Company notice of such termination, effective on or after the date of service of
such notice. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the
continuation of any of the following (without the Executive's express prior
written consent) after written notice

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

provided by the Executive and the failure by the Company to remedy such event or
condition within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice:

               (a) A reduction in the Executive's Annual Salary, as in effect
pursuant to Section 2.1;

               (b) Failure by the Company to pay to the Executive any bonus
which is payable pursuant to Section 2.2;

               (c) A failure by the Company to provide, on terms no less
favorable to the Executive than the terms offered to the other comparable
executives of the Company, any benefit or compensation plan (including any
pension, profit sharing, life insurance, health, accidental death or
dismemberment or disability plan), or any substantially similar benefit or
compensation plan, which has been made available to other comparable executives
of the Company; provided, however, that nothing in this part (c) shall be
construed to mean that the Company shall be constrained from amending or
eliminating any benefit or compensation plan as such is applied to the Executive
and to other comparable executives of the Company;

               (d) The assignment to the Executive of any duties materially
inconsistent with the Executive's position as Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of the Company or the substantial diminution of the
Executive's duties or authorities from those which the Executive has on the date
hereof;

               (e) A change in the Executive's title or the line of authority
through which the Executive is required to report, it being understood that the
Executive shall report directly to the President and Chief Executive Officer but
shall, on occasion, be expected to perform tasks at the direction of the Board;

               (f) Failure by the Company to obtain, in accordance with Section
12, below, the written agreement of any successor in interest to the business of
the Company to assume and perform the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement;

               (g) The giving of notice by the Company to stop the automatic
extension of the Term which is provided for by Section 1.1 of this Agreement;

               (h) Any other material breach of this

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

Agreement by the Company; or

               (i) Any material breach of any stock option, equity, long-term
incentive compensation or other similar plan; or

               (j) Any transfer of the place of employment of the Executive to a
location more than fifty (50) miles from the Chicago "Loop".

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the
Executive for any reason during the period of three (3) months which begins six
(6) months after a Change of Control shall be deemed to be a termination for
Good Reason for all purposes of this Agreement. In the event of any termination
for Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the severance
benefits described in Section 5 below.

          4.6 Termination without Good Reason. The Executive may, at any time
during the Term, terminate his employment under this Agreement by giving the
Company at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination. In
the event of such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive all Annual
Salary, annual performance bonuses and Benefits which have accrued as of the
effective date of such termination but may discontinue payment of any
compensation or benefits accruing from and after such date.

     5. Severance Benefits. In the event the Executive becomes entitled, under
Section 4.4 or Section 4.5, above, to severance benefits under this Section 5,
he shall receive the following, in addition to payment of his Annual Salary
through the date of termination of his employment:

          5.1 A lump sum, payable upon termination of employment, equal to three
(3) times the sum of (a) the Executive's Annual Salary for one (1) year, at the
rate in effect at the time of the termination of his employment (or, if the
Company has reduced the Executive's Annual Salary in breach of this Agreement,
at the Executive's Annual Salary rate without regard to such reduction) and (b)
the target amount of the Executive's annual performance bonus for the year in
which the termination of his employment occurs;

          5.2 Payment, upon termination of employment, of an annual performance
bonus for the year of termination, calculated by multiplying the target amount
of the Executive's annual

                                       10
<PAGE>   11

performance bonus for the year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of days that the Executive was employed by the Company during that year
and the denominator of which is three hundred and sixty-five (365);

          5.3 Payment in due course of any Benefits accrued to the date of
termination but previously unpaid;

          5.4 Continuation of Benefits for the Executive and his dependents for
three (3) years after the date of termination of the Executive's employment, at
the levels that were applicable to the Executive and such dependents immediately
prior to such termination, or provision of equivalent benefits through separate
insurance coverage; provided, however, that the medical insurance coverage
provided through such continuation of Benefits will continue until the date on
which the Executive begins to be covered by medical insurance provided by a new
employer. Execution of this Agreement by the Executive shall not be considered a
waiver of any rights or entitlements he may have under applicable law to
continuation of coverage under any group health plan maintained by the Company
or any of its affiliates;

          5.5 If such termination occurs on or after (or within close proximity
of) a Change of Control, the acceleration of vesting under the Company's stock
option and restricted stock plans and under Packaging Holdings, L.L.C.'s
Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan;

          5.6 If such termination occurs on or after (or within close proximity
of) a Change of Control, outplacement services for a period of two (2) years or,
if earlier, until the first acceptance by the Executive of an offer of
employment, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000; and

          5.7 The extension of (until the earlier to occur of (x) the sale of
the Company common stock relating thereto, (y) the second anniversary of the
date of the Executive's termination or (z) September 30, 2007) the maturity date
of the Executive's promissory note(s) to the Company which were executed in
connection with the Executive's receipt of shares of the Company's common stock
at the time of the Company's initial public offering.

     6. No Duty to Mitigate. After a termination of the Executive's employment
under this Agreement, the Executive will not be obligated to mitigate damages by
seeking other comparable

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

employment.

         7. Insurance. The Company may, from time to time, apply for and take
out, in its own name and at its own expense, naming itself or others as the
designated beneficiary (which it may change from time to time), policies for
life, health, accident, disability or other insurance upon the Executive in any
amount or amounts that it may deem necessary or appropriate to protect its
interest. The Executive agrees to aid the Company in procuring such insurance by
submitting to medical examinations and by filling out, executing and delivering
such applications and other instruments in writing as may reasonably be required
by an insurance company or companies to which any application or applications
for insurance may be made by or for the Company.

     8. Indemnification.

          8.1 The Company shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, indemnify
the Executive if he is made, or threatened to be made, a party to any
threatened, pending or completed, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the
right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor (hereinafter a
"Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that the Executive is or was a director,
officer or employee of the Company, or is or was serving in any capacity at the
request of the Company for any other corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against judgments, fines,
penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid in settlement and costs, charges and
expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements).

          8.2 The Company shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to the
Executive the funds necessary for payment of expenses, including attorneys' fees
and disbursements, incurred in connection with any Proceeding, in advance of the
final disposition of such Proceeding; provided, however, that, if required by
the Delaware General Corporation Law, such expenses incurred by or on behalf of
the Executive may be paid in advance of the final disposition of a Proceeding
only upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the
Executive, to repay any such amount so advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right of
appeal that the Executive is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

          8.3 The right to indemnification and reimbursement or

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 8
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which the Executive may have
or hereafter be entitled to under any law, by-law, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office.

          8.4 The right to indemnification and reimbursement or advancement of
expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 8 shall continue as
to the Executive after he has ceased to be a director, officer or employee and
shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the
Executive.

          8.5 The Company shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of the Executive against any liability asserted against the Executive or
incurred by the Executive in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Company, or arising out of the Executive's status as such, whether
or not the Company would have the power to indemnify the Executive against such
liability under the provisions of this Section 8, the by-laws of the Company or
under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other provision
of law.

          8.6 The right to indemnification and reimbursement or advancement of
expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 8 shall be
enforceable by the Executive in any court of competent jurisdiction. The burden
of proving that such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses
is not appropriate shall be on the Company. Neither the failure of the Company
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
action that such indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of expenses is
proper in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Company
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) that the Executive is not entitled to such indemnification or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses, shall constitute a defense to the
action or create a presumption that the Executive is not so entitled. The
Executive shall also be indemnified for any expenses incurred in connection with
successfully establishing his right to such indemnification or reimbursement or
advancement of expenses, in whole or in part, in any proceeding.

                                       13
<PAGE>   14

          8.7 If the Executive serves in any capacity (a) any affiliate of the
Company or (b) any employee benefit plan of the Company or any affiliate of the
Company, then he shall be deemed to be doing so at the request of the Company.

          8.8 The Executive may elect to have his right to indemnification or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses interpreted on the basis of the
applicable law in effect at the time of the occurrence of the event or events
giving rise to the applicable Proceeding, to the extent permitted by law, or on
the basis of the applicable law in effect at the time such indemnification or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought. Such election shall be made,
by a notice in writing to the Company, at the time indemnification or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought; provided that if no such
notice is given, the right to indemnification or reimbursement or advancement of
expenses shall be determined by the law in effect at the time indemnification or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses is sought.

     9. Change of Control.

               (a) A "Change of Control" shall mean:

                    (i) The acquisition by any Person of beneficial ownership
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of twenty
percent (20%) or more of either the Outstanding Ivex Common Stock or the
Outstanding Ivex Voting Securities; provided, however, that for purposes of this
subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of
Control: (A) any acquisition directly from Ivex, (B) any acquisition by Ivex, or
(C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or
maintained by Ivex or any corporation controlled by Ivex; or

                    (ii) Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the
board of directors of Ivex (the "Incumbent Ivex Board") cease for any reason to
constitute at least a majority of the board of directors of Ivex; provided,
however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof
whose election, or nomination for election by the shareholders of Ivex, was
approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the
Incumbent Ivex Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member
of the Incumbent Ivex 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

                                       14
<PAGE>   15

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 Incumbent Ivex
Board; or

                    (iii) Consummation of a reorganization, merger or
consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless,
following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
Outstanding Ivex Common Stock and Outstanding Ivex Voting Securities immediately
prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at
least sixty percent (60%) of, respectively, 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 of the
corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without
limitation, a corporation which 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 proportions as their
respective ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the
Outstanding Ivex Common Stock and Outstanding Ivex Voting Securities; provided,
however, that the provisions of this Section 9(iii) shall be applied, in
connection with and after any such Business Combination, as if all references to
Ivex (except in the definition of, and references to, the Ivex Incumbent Board)
were replaced by references to the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination and shall be applied, with respect to any subsequent Business
Combination, as if the reference in this subsection (iii) to "at least sixty
percent (60%)" were replaced by a reference to "at least ninety-five percent
(95%)"; or

                    (iv) Approval by the shareholders of the Company or of Ivex
of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or of Ivex,
respectively; provided, however, that a Change of Control shall not result from
approval by the shareholders of Ivex of a dissolution of Ivex for the purpose of
making a pro rata distribution of shares of the Company to the shareholders of
Ivex; and provided further that, after any such distribution, the provisions of
this Section 10 shall be applied as if all references to Ivex (except in the
definition of, and references to, the Ivex Incumbent Board) were replaced by
references to the Company.

     10. Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

                                       15
<PAGE>   16

          10.1 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and
except as set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any payment
or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether
paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments
required under this Section 10) (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the
"Code"), or if any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with
respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and
penalties, being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then
the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up
Payment") in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes
(including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes),
including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment,
the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax
imposed upon the Payments.

          10.2 Subject to the provisions of Section 10.3, all determinations
required to be made under this Section 10, including whether and when a Gross-Up
Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions
to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a nationally
recognized certified public accounting firm designated by the Executive (the
"Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to
the Company and the Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the receipt
of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time
as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving
as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting a Change
of Control, the Executive may appoint another nationally recognized accounting
firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall
then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). The Accounting Firm shall
assist the Executive with the preparation and filing of any income tax return
required of the Executive which relates to the period or periods in which
Executive received a Payment or a Gross-Up Payment. All fees and expenses of the
Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as
determined pursuant to this Section 10, shall be paid by the Company to the
Executive within five (5) days of the receipt of

                                       16
<PAGE>   17

the Accounting Firm's determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm
shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result of the
uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the
initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that
Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been
made ("Underpayment"), consistent with the calculations required to be made
hereunder. In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to
Section 10.3 and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any
Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment
that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the
Company to or for the benefit of the Executive.

          10.3 The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by
the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by
the Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as
practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after the Executive is
informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of
such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty
(30)-day period following the date on which the Executive gives such notice to
the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes
with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in
writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such
claim, the Executive shall:

               (a) Give the Company any information reasonably requested by the
Company relating to such claim,

               (b) Take such action in connection with contesting such claim as
the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including,
without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by
an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,

               (c) Cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively
to contest such claim, and

               (d) Permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating
to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly
all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in

                                       17
<PAGE>   18

connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive
harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including
interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such
representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the
foregoing provisions of this Section 10.3, the Company shall control all
proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may
pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and
conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its
sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a
refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees
to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal,
in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the
Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the
Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the
amount of such payment to the Executive on an interest-free basis and shall
indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any
Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto)
imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with
respect to such advance; and further provided that any extension of the statute
of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the
Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is
limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company's control of
the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment
would be payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or
contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority.

               10.4 If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced
by the Company pursuant to Section 10.3, the Executive becomes entitled to
receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to
the Company's complying with the requirements of Section 10.3) promptly pay to
the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or
credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the
Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 10.3, a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund
with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in
writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such advance shall be

                                       18
<PAGE>   19

forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance
shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of any Gross-Up Payment required
to be paid.

     11. Payment of Attorneys' Fees. The Company shall pay promptly upon receipt
of proper invoices:

               (a) All reasonable attorneys' fees and related expenses incurred
by the Executive in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this
Agreement; and

               (b) To the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and
expenses which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any contest by
the Company, the Executive or others of the validity or enforceability of, or
liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance
thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive about the amount
of any payment due pursuant to this Agreement), plus in each case interest (from
the date of any such disbursement by the Executive) at the applicable federal
rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to make
such payment with respect to any contest in which the Company prevails over the
Executive.

     12. Successors. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. For purposes of this Section 12, the term "successor" shall
include any entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2)
of the Exchange Act) which has ultimate beneficial ownership (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of at least fifty percent
(50%) of any other entity or entities which succeed to all or substantially all
of the business and/or assets of the Company; provided, however, that the term
"successor" shall not include any partner or stockholder who is a natural
person. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement, by operation of
law or otherwise.

     13. Other Provisions.

                                       19
