      or noncompetition covenants, which presently has or may in the future have
      a
      possibility of adversely affecting the business of the Company or the
      performance by the Employee of the Employee's duties under this Agreement.

    (b) During
      the Term, the Employee agrees that the Employee will not offer for sale, sell,
      pledge, assign, hypothecate or otherwise create any interest in or dispose
      of
      (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could
      reasonably be expected to, result in any of the foregoing) any shares of Common
      Stock owned by the Employee on the Commencement Date or any shares of Common
      Stock owned or acquired by him after the Commencement Date upon the conversion
      or exercise of options or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
      exchangeable for Common Stock, without first notifying the Chief Executive
      Officer of the Parent in writing to inquire as to whether there exist any facts
      or circumstances that would make it inadvisable for the Company or the Parent
      if
      the Employee engaged in such transaction.

    

    (c) The
      representations, warranties and covenants of this Section 4 shall survive

      Term hereof.

    

    5. Confidentiality,
      Noncompetition, Nonsolicitation and Non-Disparagement.

    

    For
      purposes of this Section 5, all references to the Company shall be deemed to

      subsidiaries, whether now existing or hereafter established or acquired. In
      consideration for the compensation and benefits provided to the Employee
      pursuant to this Agreement, the Employee agrees with the provisions of this
      Section 5.

    

    (a) Confidential
      Information.
      (i) The
      Employee acknowledges that as a result of the Employee's employment, the
      Employee has and will continue to have knowledge of, and access to, proprietary
      and confidential information of the Company, including, without limitation,
      research and development plans and results, software, databases, technology,
      inventions, trade secrets, technical information, know-how, plans,
      specifications, methods of operations, product and service information, product
      and service availability, pricing information (including pricing strategies),
      financial, business and marketing information and plans, and the identity of
      customers, clients and suppliers (collectively, the “Confidential Information”),
      and that the Confidential Information, even though it may be contributed,
      developed or acquired by the Employee, constitutes valuable, special and unique
      assets of the Company developed at great expense which is the exclusive property
      of the Company. Accordingly, the Employee shall not, at any time, either during
      or subsequent to the Term of this Agreement, use, reveal, report, publish,
      transfer or otherwise disclose to any person, corporation or other entity,
      any
      of the Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the
      Company, except to responsible officers and employees of the Company and other
      responsible persons who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship with
      the
      Company and who have a need for such Confidential Information for purposes
      in
      the best interests of the Company, and except for such Confidential Information
      which is or becomes of general public knowledge from authorized sources other
      than the Employee.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (ii) The
      Employee acknowledges that the Company would not enter into this Agreement
      without the assurance that all the Confidential Information will be used for
      the
      exclusive benefit of the Company. 

    

    (b) Return
      of Confidential Information.
      Upon
      the termination of this Agreement or upon the request of the Company, the
      Employee shall promptly return to the Company all Confidential Information
      in
      the Employee's possession or control, including but not limited to all drawings,
      manuals, computer printouts, computer databases, disks, data, files, lists,
      memoranda, letters, notes, notebooks, reports and other writings and copies
      thereof and all other materials relating to the Company’s business, including
      without limitation any materials incorporating Confidential
      Information.

    

    (c) Inventions,
      etc.
      During
      the Term and for a period of one year thereafter, the Employee will promptly
      disclose to the Company all designs, processes, inventions, improvements,
      developments, discoveries, processes, techniques, and other information related
      to the business of the Company conceived, developed, acquired, or reduced to
      practice by the Employee alone or with others during the Term of this Agreement,
      whether or not conceived during regular working hours, through the use of
      Company time, material or facilities or otherwise (“Inventions”).

    

    The
      Employee agrees that all copyrights created in conjunction with the Employee's
      service to the Company and other Inventions, are “works made for hire” (as that
      term is defined under the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended). All such
      copyrights, trademarks, and other Inventions shall be the sole and exclusive
      property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents,
      copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other rights and protection in
      connection therewith. To the extent any such copyright and other Inventions
      may
      not be works for hire, the Employee hereby assigns to the Corporation any and
      all rights the Employee now has or may hereafter acquire in such copyrights
      and
      any other Inventions. Upon request the Employee shall deliver to the Company
      all
      drawings, models and other data and records relating to such copyrights,
      trademarks and Inventions. The Employee further agrees, as to all such
      Inventions, to assist the Company in every proper way (but at the Company’s
      expense) to obtain, register, and from time to time enforce patents, copyrights,
      trademarks, trade secrets, and other rights and protection relating to said
      Inventions in and all countries, and to that end the Employee shall execute
      all
      documents for use in applying for and obtaining such patents, copyrights,
      trademarks, trade secrets and other rights and protection on and enforcing
      such
      Inventions, as the Company may desire, together with any assignments thereof
      to
      the Company or persons designated by it. Such obligation to assist the Company
      shall continue beyond the termination of the Employee’s service to the Company,
      but the Company shall compensate the Employee at a reasonable rate after
      termination of service for time actually spent by the Employee at the Company’s
      request for such assistance. In the event the Company is unable, after
      reasonable effort, to secure the Employee’s signature on any document or
      documents needed to apply for or prosecute any patent, copyright, trademark,
      trade secret, or other right or protection relating to an Invention, whether
      because of the Employee’s physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason
      whatsoever, the Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company
      and the its duly authorized officers and agents as the Employee's agent coupled
      with an interest and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in the Employee's behalf
      and stead to execute and file any such application or applications and to do
      all
      other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of
      patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or similar rights or protection
      thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Employee.

    (d) Non-competition.
      The
      Employee will not utilize the Employee's special knowledge of the business
      operations of the Company or its customers, suppliers and others to compete
      with
      the Company. During the Term of this Agreement and for a period of one year
      after the termination of this Agreement, the Employee shall not engage, directly
      or indirectly, or have an interest, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the
      United States of America or any other geographic area where the Company does
      business or in which its products or services are marketed, alone or in
      association with others, as principal, officer, agent, Employee, director,
      partner or stockholder (except with respect to the Employee's employment by
      the
      Company), or through the investment of capital, lending of money or property,
      rendering of services or otherwise, in any business competitive with or
      substantially similar to that engaged in by the Company during the Term of
      this
      Agreement (it being understood hereby, that the ownership by the Employee of
      five percent (5%) or less of the stock of any company listed on a national
      securities exchange shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 5).

    

    (e) Non-solicitation.
      During
      the Term of this Agreement and for a period of one year after the termination
      of
      this Agreement, the Employee shall not, and shall not permit any of the
      Employee's employees, agents or others under the Employee's control to, directly
      or indirectly, on behalf of the Employee or any other person, (i) call
      upon, accept competitive business from, or solicit the competitive business
      of
      any individual or entity who is, or who had been at any time during the
      preceding two years, a customer of the Company or any successor to the business
      of the Company, or otherwise divert or attempt to divert any business from
      the
      Company or any such successor, or (ii) directly or indirectly recruit or
      otherwise solicit or induce any person who is an Employee of, or otherwise
      engaged by, the Company or any successor to the business of the Company to
      terminate such person's employment or other relationship with the Company or
      such successor, or hire or enter into any business with any person who is
      employed by, or who has left the employ of, the Company or any such successor
      during the preceding two years. The Employee shall not at any time, directly
      or
      indirectly, use or purport to authorize any person to use any name, mark, logo,
      trade dress or other identifying words or images which are the same as or
      similar to those used at any time by the Company in connection with any product
      or service, whether or not such use would be in a business competitive with
      that
      of the Company. Any breach or violation by the Employee of the provisions of
      this Section 5 shall toll the running of any time periods set forth in this
      Section 5 for the duration of any such breach or violation. 

    

    (f) Non-Disparagement. The
      Employee shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, take any action (whether
      orally or in writing or otherwise) which has or may be expected to have the
      effect of disparaging the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates
      or
      their directors, officers or executives or their respective reputations,
      including, but not limited to, their business models, practices, relationships,
      internal workings, financial condition or operations, in any manner whatsoever
      at any time.

    6. Remedies.
      The
      restrictions set forth in Section 5 are considered by the parties to be fair
      and
      reasonable. The Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Section
      5 will not prevent him from earning a livelihood. The Employee further
      acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably harmed and that monetary
      damages would not provide an adequate remedy in the event of a breach of the
      provisions of Section 5. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that, in addition
      to
      any other remedies available to the Company, the Company shall be entitled
      to
      injunctive and other equitable relief to secure the enforcement of these
      provisions, and shall be entitled to receive reimbursement from the Employee
      for
      all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the Company in enforcing
      these provisions. In connection with seeking any such equitable remedy,
      including, but not limited to, an injunction or specific performance, the
      Company shall not be required to post a bond as a condition to obtaining such
      remedy. If any provisions of Sections 5 or 6 relating to the time period, scope
      of activities or geographic area of restrictions is declared by a court of
      competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum permissible time period, scope
      of
      activities or geographic area, the maximum time period, scope of activities
      or
      geographic area, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the maximum which
      such
      court deems enforceable. If any provisions of Sections 5 or 6 other than those
      described in the preceding sentence are adjudicated to be invalid or
      unenforceable, the invalid or unenforceable provisions shall be deemed amended
      (with respect only to the jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made)
      in
      such manner as to render them enforceable and to effectuate as nearly as
      possible the original intentions and agreement of the parties. For purposes
      of
      this Section 6, all references to the Company shall be deemed to include the
      Company's affiliates and subsidiaries, whether now existing or hereafter
      established or acquired.

    

    7. Termination;
      Non-renewal.
      This
      Agreement may be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term set forth in
      Section 1 upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in, and subject
      to
      the terms of, this Section 7.

    

    (a) Death
      or Permanent Disability.
      If
      the
      Employee dies or becomes permanently disabled, this Agreement shall terminate
      effective at the end of the calendar month during which the Employee's death
      occurs or when the Employee's disability is deemed to have become permanent.
      If
      the Employee is unable to perform the Employee's normal duties for the Company
      because of illness or incapacity (whether physical or mental) for 45 consecutive
      days during the Term of this Agreement, or for 60 days (whether or not
      consecutive) out of any calendar year during the Term of this Agreement, the
      Employee's disability shall be deemed to have become permanent. If this
      Agreement is terminated on account of the death or permanent disability of
      the
      Employee, then the Employee or the Employee's estate shall be entitled to
      receive accrued Base Compensation through the date of such termination and
      the
      Employee and the Employee’s estate shall have no further entitlement to Base
      Compensation, bonus, or benefits from the Company following the effective date
      of such termination.

    (b) Cause.
      This
      Agreement may be terminated at the Company’s option, immediately upon written
      notice to the Employee, upon: (i) the Employee’s commission of a
      misdemeanor or felony that, in the Company Board or Parent Board’s reasonable
      judgment, adversely affects the Company’s or any of the Company’s affiliates’
reputation, business or interests, or the ability of the Employee to perform
      the
      Employee's duties as an employee of the Company; (ii) the Employee’s act of
      fraud or dishonest act upon, or misappropriation of funds of, the Company or
      any
      of the Company’s affiliates; (c) the Employee’s gross negligence, willful
      or intentional act or omission in the performance of the Employee's duties
      under
      this Agreement as determined by the Company Board or Parent Board; (d) the
      Employee’s disregard of a lawful direction of the Company Board or Parent Board
      or the executive officer to whom the Employee reports; (e) the Employee’s
      appropriation for himself of a Company corporate opportunity without the express
      prior written consent of the Company Board or Parent Board; (f) the
      Employee’s material breach of any of the Employee's obligations under this
      Agreement (other than Section 5 of this Agreement) that continues unremedied
      for
      14 days following the Employee’s receipt of written notice from the Company
      Board or Parent Board thereof; (g) the Employee’s breach of any of the
      Employee's obligations of any of the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement;
      or (h) the Employee is convicted of a felony. If this Agreement is
      terminated by the Company for cause, then the Employee shall be entitled to
      receive accrued Base Compensation through the date of such
      termination.

    

    (c) By
      Employee.
      The
      Employee may terminate the Agreement upon providing the Company with ninety
      (90)
      days' prior written notice. If this Agreement is terminated by the Employee
      pursuant to this Section 7(c), then the Employee shall be entitled to receive
      the Employee's accrued Base Compensation and benefits through the effective
      date
      of such termination, and the Employee shall have no further entitlement to

    3. Compensation,
      Bonus, Stock Options, Benefits, etc.

    

    (a) Fees.

      all as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Parent Board or
      Compensation Committee of the Parent Board. In addition, the Consultant may
      be
      entitled to participate in such other bonus plans as the Compensation Committee
      of the Parent Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine. To

      the Company.

    

    (c) Stock
      Options.

      of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could
      reasonably be expected to, result in any of the foregoing) any shares of Common
      Stock owned by the Consultant on the Commencement Date or any shares of Common
      Stock owned or acquired by him after the Commencement Date upon the conversion
      or exercise of options or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
      exchangeable for Common Stock, without first notifying the Chief Executive
      Officer of the Parent in writing to inquire as to whether there exist any facts
      or circumstances that would make it inadvisable for the Company or the Parent
      if
      the Consultant engaged in such transaction. The terms and provisions of such
      options shall be set forth in a stock option agreement in a form satisfactory
      to
      the Company. In addition, the Consultant may be entitled, during the term of
      this Agreement, to receive such additional options, at such exercise prices
      and
      other terms as the Compensation Committee of the Parent Board may, in its sole
      and absolute discretion, determine.

      other supporting documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Company and in

      Consultant shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable business
      expenses actually and necessarily incurred by the Consultant on behalf of the
      Company in connection with the performance of services under this Agreement.

      is party to, or bound by, any agreement or commitment, or subject to any
      restriction, including but not limited to agreements related to previous
      employment or consultancy containing confidentiality or noncompetition
      covenants, which presently has or may in the future have a possibility of
      adversely affecting the business of the Company or the performance by the
      Consultant or the Principal of the services, obligations and duties of the
      Consultant and Principal under this Agreement. 

    

    (b) During
      the Term and the Severance Period (as defined in Section 7(f)), if any, the
      Consultant agrees that the Consultant will not offer for sale, sell, pledge,
      assign, hypothecate or otherwise create any interest in or dispose of (or enter
      into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could reasonably be
      expected to, result in any of the foregoing) any shares of Common Stock owned
      by
      the Consultant on the Commencement Date or any shares of Common Stock owned
      or
      acquired by him after the Commencement Date upon the conversion or exercise
      of
      options or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
      Common Stock, without first notifying the Chief Executive Officer of the Parent
      in writing to inquire as to whether there exist any facts or circumstances
      that
      would make it inadvisable for the Company or the Parent if the Consultant
      engaged in such transaction. The Consultant shall not transfer any securities
      of
      the Parent to the Principal unless and until the Principal affirmative
      undertakes in writing to the Company and the Parent to be bound by such further
      restrictions on the transfer of securities of the Company as may be applicable
      to the Consultant.

    

    (c) The
      representations, warranties and covenants of this Section 4 shall survive
      termination of the Consultant’s engagement hereunder and the expiration of the
      Term hereof.

    (d) The
      Consultant hereby joins in and personally guarantees to the Consultant and
      the
      Company that the Principal will make himself available to the Company in
      accordance with the requirements and obligations of the Consultant
      hereunder.

    

    (e) The
      Consultant understands and agrees that neither the Consultant nor the Principal
      shall be entitled to participate in or benefit from the Company's medical
      insurance and other fringe benefit plans or policies as the Company may make
      available to, or have in effect for, its senior executive officers or other
      personnel from time to time. The Principal shall receive only such benefits,
      if
      any, as agreed between the Consultant and the Principal, from the Consultant,
      at
      the sole expense of the Consultant. The Consultant warrants and represents
      that
      the Principal is entitled to no more than three weeks' vacation in each calendar
      year, and sick leave not in excess of the sick leave as set forth in
Exhibit
      ___
      attached
      hereto. The Consultant agrees that if the Company amends its sick leave policies
      for executives employed by the Company, the Consultant will amend its sick
      leave
      policies applicable to the Principal to conform to the Company's sick leave
      policies.

    

    5. Confidentiality,
      Noncompetition, Nonsolicitation and Non-Disparagement.

    

    For
      purposes of this Section 5, all references to the Company shall be deemed to
      include the Parent and all its subsidiaries, including the Company all its
      subsidiaries, whether now existing or hereafter established or acquired. In
      consideration for the compensation provided to the Consultant pursuant to this
      Agreement, the Consultant and the Principal each agrees to the provisions of
      this Section 5. 

    

    (a) Confidential
      Information.
      (i) The
      Consultant and Principal each acknowledges that as a result of the Consultant's
      engagement, the Consultant and Principal each has and will continue to have
      knowledge of, and access to, proprietary and confidential information of the
      Company, including, without limitation, research and development plans and
      results, software, databases, technology, inventions, trade secrets, technical
      information, know-how, plans, specifications, methods of operations, product
      and
      service information, product and service availability, pricing information
      (including pricing strategies), financial, business and marketing information
      and plans, and the identity of customers, clients and suppliers (collectively,
      the “Confidential Information”), and that the Confidential Information, even
      though it may be contributed, developed or acquired by the Consultant and/or
      the
      Principal, constitutes valuable, special and unique assets of the Company
      developed at great expense which is the exclusive property of the Company.
      Accordingly, the Consultant and/or Principal shall not, at any time, either
      during or subsequent to the Term of this Agreement, use, reveal, report,
      publish, transfer or otherwise disclose to any person, corporation or other
      entity, any of the Confidential Information without the prior written consent
      of
      the Company, except to responsible officers and Consultants of the Company
      and
      other responsible persons who are in a contractual or fiduciary relationship
      with the Company and who have a need for such Confidential Information for
      purposes in the best interests of the Company, and except for such Confidential
      Information which is or becomes of general public knowledge from authorized
      sources other than the Consultant.

    (ii) The
      Consultant and Principal each acknowledges that the Company would not enter
      into
      this Agreement without the assurance that all the Confidential Information
      will
      be used for the exclusive benefit of the Company. 

    

    (b) Return
      of Confidential Information.
      Upon
      the termination of this Agreement or upon the request of the Company, the
      Consultant and Principal each shall promptly return to the Company all
      Confidential Information in their possession or control, including but not
      limited to all drawings, manuals, computer printouts, computer databases, disks,
      data, files, lists, memoranda, letters, notes, notebooks, reports and other
      writings and copies thereof and all other materials relating to the Company’s
      business, including without limitation any materials incorporating Confidential
      Information.

    

    (c) Inventions,
      etc.
      During
      the Term and for a period of one year thereafter, the Consultant and the
      Principal will promptly disclose to the Company all designs, processes,
      inventions, improvements, developments, discoveries, processes, techniques,
      and
      other information related to the business of the Company conceived, developed,
      acquired, or reduced to practice by the Consultant or Principal alone or with
      others during the Term of this Agreement, whether or not conceived during
      regular working hours, through the use of Company time, material or facilities
      or otherwise (“Inventions”).

    

    The
      Consultant and Principal each agrees that all copyrights created in conjunction
      with the Consultant's service to the Company and other Inventions, are “works
      made for hire” (as that term is defined under the Copyright Act of 1976, as
      amended). All such copyrights, trademarks, and other Inventions shall be the
      sole and exclusive property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole
      owner of all patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other rights
      and protection in connection therewith. To the extent any such copyright and
      other Inventions may not be works for hire, the Consultant and Principal each
      hereby assigns to the Company any and all rights the Consultant and Principal
      now has or may hereafter acquire in such copyrights and any other Inventions.
      Upon request the Consultant and Principal shall deliver to the Company all
      drawings, models and other data and records relating to such copyrights,
      trademarks and Inventions. The Consultant and Principal each further agrees,
      as
      to all such Inventions, to assist the Company in every proper way (but at the
      Company’s expense) to obtain, register, and from time to time enforce patents,
      copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other rights and protection relating
      to said Inventions in and all countries, and to that end the Consultant and
      Principal each shall execute all documents for use in applying for and obtaining
      such patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other rights and
      protection on and enforcing such Inventions, as the Company may desire, together
      with any assignments thereof to the Company or persons designated by it. Such
      obligation to assist the Company shall continue beyond the termination of the
      Consultant’s service to the Company, but the Company shall compensate the
      Consultant at a reasonable rate after termination of service for time actually
      spent by the Consultant at the Company’s request for such assistance. In the
      event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure the Consultant’s
      signature on any document or documents needed to apply for or prosecute any
      patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or other right or protection
      relating to an Invention, whether because of the Consultant’s dissolution and/or
      the Principal’s physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason
      whatsoever, the Consultant and Principal each hereby irrevocably designates
      and
      appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as the
      Consultant's and Principal’s agent coupled with an interest and
      attorney-in-fact, to act for and in the Consultant's and Principal’s behalf and
      stead to execute and file any such application or applications and to do all
      other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of
      patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or similar rights or protection
      thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Consultant.

    (d) Non-competition.
      The
      Consultant and Principal each agrees that it/he will not utilize the
      Consultant's or Principal’s special knowledge of the business operations of the
      Company or its customers, suppliers and others to compete with the Company.
      During the Term of this Agreement and (i) for a period of (A) one year
      after the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7(a), 7(b) or
      7(e)
      hereof, as applicable; or (B) in the event of termination pursuant to
      Section 7(c), the duration of the Severance Period (as defined in Section 7(f));
      or (ii) in the event the Agreement is not renewed, the Severance Period, if
      any; neither the Principal nor the Consultant shall engage, directly or
      indirectly, or have an interest, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the United
      States of America or any other geographic area where the Company does business
      or in which its products or services are marketed, alone or in association
      with
      others, as principal, officer, agent, consultant, director, partner or
      stockholder (except with respect to the Consultant's engagement by the Company),
      or through the investment of capital, lending of money or property, rendering
      of
      services or otherwise, in any business competitive with or substantially similar
      to that engaged in by the Company during the Term of this Agreement (it being
      understood hereby, that the ownership by the Consultant or Principal,
      collectively, of five percent (5%) or less of the stock of any company listed
      on
      a national securities exchange shall not be deemed a violation of this Section
      5). 

    

    (e) Non-solicitation.
      During
      the Term of this Agreement and (i) for a period of (A) one year after
      the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 7(a), 7(b) or 7(e)
      hereof, as applicable; or (B) in the event of termination pursuant to
      Section 7(c), the duration of the Severance Period (as defined in Section 7(f));
      or (ii) in the event the Agreement is not renewed, the Severance Period, if
      any, the Consultant and Principal each agrees that it/he shall not, and shall
      not permit any of the Consultant's employees, agents or others under the
      Consultant's or Principal’s control to, directly or indirectly, on behalf of the
      Consultant, the Principal or any other person, (i) call upon, accept
      competitive business from, or solicit the competitive business of any individual
      or entity who is, or who had been at any time during the preceding two years,
      a
      customer of the Company or any successor to the business of the Company, or
      otherwise divert or attempt to divert any business from the Company or any
      such
      successor, or (ii) directly or indirectly recruit or otherwise solicit or
      induce any person who is an employee of, or otherwise engaged by, the Company
      or
      any successor to the business of the Company to terminate such person's
      employment or other relationship with the Company or such successor, or hire
      or
      enter into any business with any person who is employed by, or who has left
      the
      employ of, the Company or any such successor during the preceding two years.
      The
      Consultant and Principal each agrees that it/he shall not at any time, directly
      or indirectly, use or purport to authorize any person to use any name, mark,
      logo, trade dress or other identifying words or images which are the same as
      or
      similar to those used at any time by the Company in connection with any product
      or service, whether or not such use would be in a business competitive with
      that
      of the Company. Any breach or violation by the Consultant or Principal of the
      provisions of this Section 5 shall toll the running of any time periods set
      forth in this Section 5 for the duration of any such breach or violation.

    (f) Non-Disparagement. The
      Consultant and Principal each shall not at any time, directly or indirectly,
      take any action (whether orally or in writing or otherwise) which has or may
      be
      expected to have the effect of disparaging the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries or affiliates or their directors, officers or executives or their
      respective reputations, including, but not limited to, their business models,
      practices, relationships, internal workings, financial condition or operations,
      in any manner whatsoever at any time.

    

    6. Remedies.
      The
      restrictions set forth in Section 5 are considered by the parties to be fair
      and
      reasonable. The Consultant acknowledges that the restrictions contained in
      Section 5 will not prevent them from earning a livelihood. The Consultant and
      Principal each further acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably harmed
      and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy in the event
      of a
      breach of the provisions of Section 5. Accordingly, the Consultant and Principal
      each agrees that, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company,
      the Company shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to secure
      the enforcement of these provisions, and shall be entitled to receive
      reimbursement from the Consultant and the Principal for all reasonable
      attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the Company in enforcing these
      provisions. In connection with seeking any such equitable remedy, including,
      but
      not limited to, an injunction or specific performance, the Company shall not
      be
      required to post a bond as a condition to obtaining such remedy. If any
      provisions of Sections 5 or 6 relating to the time period, scope of activities
      or geographic area of restrictions is declared by a court of competent
      jurisdiction to exceed the maximum permissible time period, scope of activities
      or geographic area, the maximum time period, scope of activities or geographic
      area, as the case may be, shall be reduced to the maximum which such court
      deems
      enforceable. If any provisions of Sections 5 or 6 other than those described
      in
      the preceding sentence are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, the
      invalid or unenforceable provisions shall be deemed amended (with respect only
      to the jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) in such manner as to
      render them enforceable and to effectuate as nearly as possible the original
      intentions and agreement of the parties. For purposes of this Section 6, all
      references to the Company shall be deemed to include the Company's affiliates
      and subsidiaries, whether now existing or hereafter established or
      acquired.

    

    7. Termination;
      Non-renewal.
      This
      Agreement may be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term set forth in
      Section 1 upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in, and subject
      to
      the terms of, this Section 7.

    

    (a) Death
      or Permanent Disability.
      If
      the
      Consultant dies or becomes permanently disabled, this Agreement shall terminate
      effective at the end of the calendar month during which the Consultant's death
      occurs or when the Consultant's disability is deemed to have become permanent.
      If the Consultant is unable to perform the Consultant's normal duties for the
      Company because of illness or incapacity (whether physical or mental) for 45
      consecutive days during the Term of this Agreement, or for 60 days (whether
      or
      not consecutive) out of any calendar year during the Term of this Agreement,
      the
      Consultant's disability shall be deemed to have become permanent. If this
      Agreement is terminated on account of the death or permanent disability of
      the
      Consultant, then the Consultant or the Consultant's estate shall be entitled
      to
      receive accrued Base Consulting Fee through the date of such termination and
      the
      Consultant and the Consultant’s estate shall have no further entitlement to Base
      Consulting Fee, bonus, or benefits from the Company following the effective
      date
      of such termination.

      This
      Agreement may be terminated at the Company’s option, immediately upon written
      notice to the Consultant, upon: (i) the Consultant’s commission of a
      misdemeanor or felony that, in the Company Board or Parent Board’s reasonable

reputation, business or interests, or the ability of the Consultant to perform
      the Consultant's duties as an Consultant of the Company; (ii) the
      Consultant’s act of fraud or dishonest act upon, or misappropriation of funds
      of, the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates; (c) the Consultant’s
      gross negligence, willful or intentional act or omission in the performance
      of
      the Consultant's duties under this Agreement as determined by the Company Board
      or Parent Board; (d) the Consultant’s disregard of a lawful direction of
      the Company Board or Parent Board or the executive officer to whom the
      Consultant reports; (e) the Consultant’s appropriation for himself of a
      Company corporate opportunity without the express prior written consent of
      the
      Company Board or Parent Board; (f) the Consultant’s material breach of any

      of
      this Agreement) that continues unremedied for 14 days following the Consultant’s
      receipt of written notice from the Company Board or Parent Board thereof;
      (g) the Consultant’s breach of any of the Consultant's obligations of any
      of the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement; or (h) the Consultant is
      convicted of a felony. If this Agreement is terminated by the Company for cause,
      then the Consultant shall be entitled to receive accrued Base Consulting Fee
      through the date of such termination.

    

    (c) Without
      Cause.
      This
      Agreement may be terminated by the Company, at any time after the first
      anniversary of the Commencement Date, without cause immediately upon giving

      however,
      that
      Consultant’s right to receive any such payment shall be subject to the
      Consultant’s complying with the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, the
      Company shall have the right, at its election if made on or before the time
      of
      termination, to continue to pay the Consultant the Base Consulting Fee for
      an
      additional period of up to six months, and if the Company so elects, the
      Consultant and Principal shall be bound by the provisions of Sections 5(d)
      and
      5(e) of this Agreement for such additional period. Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, no amount shall be payable to the Consultant pursuant to this
      Paragraph 7(c) unless (y) such Consultant’s termination is a separation
      from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code
      and the regulations thereunder), and (z) the amount payable to the
      Consultant pursuant to this Paragraph 7(c) shall not exceed two times the lesser

      Consultant for the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the
      Consultant has a separation from service, or (B) the maximum amount that may
      be
      taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of
      the
      Internal Revenue Code for such year.

      of the Term, and if the Company so elects, the Consultant and Principal shall
      be
      bound by the provisions of Sections 5(d) and 5(e) of this Agreement for such
      additional period, provided, however, Consultant’s right to receive any such
      payment shall be subject to the Consultant and Principal complying with the

      date of such termination, and neither the Principal nor the Consultant shall
      have any further entitlement to the Base Consulting Fee or bonus or other

    (g) Severability.
      If any
      provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court
      of
      competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect
      the
      validity and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement and the
      provisions held to be invalid or unenforceable shall be enforced as nearly
      as
      possible according to its original terms and intent to eliminate such invalidity
      or unenforceability.

    

    (h) Jurisdiction;
      Venue.
      This
      Agreement shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of New York County,
      New York, and the courts of Chittenden County, State of Vermont, and the parties
      irrevocably and expressly agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts
      for
      actions or proceedings involving any breach of this Agreement other than claims
      or causes of action that relate to or arise under the Purchase Agreement. Claims
      hereunder involving any causes of action that relate to or arise under the
      Purchase Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the courts of New York
      County, New York, and the parties irrevocably and expressly agree to submit
      to
      the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New York County, New York for the
      purpose of resolving disputes among them relating to this Agreement or the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and waive any objections on the
      grounds of forum non
      conveniens
      or
      otherwise. The parties hereto agree to service of process by certified or
      registered United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the party in

    (i) Governing
      Law; Officer Indemnification.
      This
      Agreement is made and executed and shall be governed by the laws of the State
      of
      New York, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Principal shall have the right to any
      indemnification to the extent provided for the Principal in the Company's
      certificate of incorporation, bylaws, and the provisions of Delaware
      law.

    

    (j) Counterparts.
      This
      Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, but all counterparts
      will together constitute but one agreement.

    

    (k) Code
      Section 409A.
      The
      parties to this Agreement intend that the Agreement be exempt from (or, if
      not
      so exempt, comply with) Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the
      "Code"), where applicable, and this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner
      consistent with that intention.  To the extent required by Section 409A of
      the Code, no payment or other distribution required to be made to the Consultant
      hereunder (including any payment of cash, any transfer of property and any
      provision of taxable benefits) as a result of the Consultant's termination
      of
      the Consultant's relationship with the Company shall be made earlier than the
      date that is six (6) months and one day following the date on which the
      Consultant separates from service with the Company and its affiliates (within
      the meaning of Section 409A of the Code).

    

    (l) Independent
      Contractor; Indemnification for Payroll Taxes.
      The
      Consultant’s relationship with the Company is that of an independent contractor,
      and the activities of the Consultant and Principal hereunder shall not
      constitute the Consultant an employee, agent, partner or joint venturer of
      or
      with the Company, and at all times the relationship of the Consultant to the
      Company shall be that of an independent contractor. The Consultant also
      acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall treat the Consultant as an
      independent contractor for taxation purposes and that the Consultant shall
      be
      solely responsible for the payment of any and all taxes relating to the
      Consultant's compensation hereunder. Neither the Consultant nor the Principal
      shall be entitled to any employee benefits from the Company or any affiliate
      of
      the Company. Neither the Consultant nor the Principal will have any authority
      to, make any representation, contract, or commitment on behalf of the Company
      or
      otherwise bind the Company in any respect except as the Company Board, the
      Chief
      Executive Officer, or the bylaws of the Company provide with respect to the
      Principal's acts and duties as an officer of the Company. The Consultant and
      Principal each will comply with, and each hereby accepts, exclusive liability
      for noncompliance with, all applicable state and federal laws, rules, and
      regulations, including, but not limited to, the payment of all taxes, social
      security, disability, and other contributions based upon fees paid to the
      Consultant pursuant to this Agreement. The Consultant hereby indemnifies and
      holds harmless the Company against any and all such liability, taxes, or
      contributions, including, but not limited to, penalties and
      interest.

    (m) Conversion
      to Employment Agreement.
      The
      Company may convert this Agreement to an employment agreement between the
      Principal and the Company if the Company determines that it is in the best
      interests of the Company to treat the Agreement as an employment agreement
      rather than a consulting agreement. In the event of such conversion,
      (i) the obligations of the Consultant under Section 5 and the provisions of
      Section 6 as they apply to the Consultant shall survive such conversion and
      remain in full force and effect against the Consultant, and (ii) all the
      obligations of the Principal hereunder shall survive the conversion and be
      merged into the employment agreement, and (iii) payments made to the
      Consultant shall be credited against payments owed to the Principal as an
      employee of the Company.

    

    This
      Agreement is for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and shall
      not be deemed for the benefit of any other person or entity.
