Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section does not limit Executive’s
right to challenge the validity of this Agreement in a legal proceeding under

claims under the ADEA.  This Section also
is not intended to and shall not limit the right of a court to determine, in

d.       The Released Parties, for
good consideration which they hereby acknowledge receiving, hereby release
Executive from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, liability or the
like which they had, now have or may claim to have against Executive, as of the
date of execution, whether known or unknown.

 	 Initial

Employment Agreement or those contained herein.

6.             Confidentiality of Agreement.  The parties agree that it is a material
condition of this Agreement that Executive shall keep the terms of this
Agreement, strictly and completely confidential and that he will not directly
or indirectly make or issue any private statement, press release or public
statement, or communicate or otherwise disclose to any Executive of the Company
(past, present or future) or to a member of the general public, the
negotiations leading to, or the terms, amounts or facts of or underlying this
Agreement, except as may be required by law, applicable regulatory requirements

surrender to the Company all Company credit cards, parking cards, security
badges, cell phones, pagers, Blackberry, computer equipment, expense accounts,

papers, files or records in any media (whether stored on Company or personal
property) which may be in his possession, custody or control.

8.             Non-Admissions.  The parties hereto recognize that, by
entering into this Agreement, the Company does not admit, and does specifically
deny, any violation of any local, state, federal, or other law, whether
regulatory, common or statutory.  The
parties further recognize that (a) this Agreement has been entered into in
release and compromise of any claims which might be asserted by Executive in
connection with his employment by the Company or his resignation from
employment, and to avoid the expense and burden of any litigation related
thereto, and (b) the amounts payable to Executive hereunder are in addition
to anything of value to which he is already entitled.

9.             Rights After Breach.  Executive agrees that, in the event he

other act or omission that has caused or may reasonably be expected to cause
injury to the interest or business reputation of the Company, in addition to
rights otherwise set forth in this Agreement: (a) the Company shall have the
right to (i) offset or reduce or discontinue any payments, reimbursements or benefits
he otherwise would be entitled to receive under the provisions of this

shall immediately repay or reimburse the Company upon demand, any or all
payments, reimbursements or benefits paid or provided to him under the

other resulting actual or consequential damages, including reasonable attorneys’
fees and costs.

10.           Waiver of Breach.  One or more waivers of a breach of any
covenant, term or provision of this Agreement by any party shall not be
construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach

 	  
 	  
 
	 
 	 Initial
 

 8
 

 

of the same covenant, term or provision, nor shall it
be considered a waiver of any other then existing or subsequent breach of a different
covenant, term or provision.

11.           Enforcement and Arbitration. Any dispute,
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement remains
subject to arbitration in conformity with the Governing Law and Arbitration
provisions under Section 13 of the Employment Agreement.

12.           Severability.  If any provision or term of this Agreement,
other than the Executive’s General Release in Section 4 or the payments to
Executive in Section 2 or the Company’s general release of Executive in Section
4.d, is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision or term
shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if
such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised part of
this Agreement; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision or by its severance from this Agreement.  Furthermore, in lieu of each such illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provision or term, there shall be added automatically
as a part of this Agreement another provision or term as similar to the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, as may be possible and that is
legal, valid and enforceable.

13.           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire
Agreement of the parties, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous
negotiations, prior drafts of this Agreement and other agreements, oral or
written, including whatever rights, if any, Executive may have had under the
Employment Agreement.  No
representations, oral or written, are being relied upon by either party in
executing this Agreement other than the express representations of this
Agreement.  This Agreement cannot be
changed or terminated unless by express written agreement of the parties.  This Agreement may be executed by each party
in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
constitute one document.

14.           Revocation and Effective Date.  Executive is advised that he has up to twenty-one
(21) calendar days to review this Agreement and to consult with an attorney
prior to execution of this Agreement. Executive agrees that any modifications,
material or otherwise, made to this Agreement do not restart or affect in any
manner the original twenty-one (21) calendar day consideration period unless
mutually agreed.  Executive may accept
this Agreement by delivering a signed and dated copy of this Agreement and the
letter in the form attached as Exhibit A no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time

 	 Initial
 

 9
 

 

Agreement, he shall receive none of the benefits
provided hereunder and this Agreement shall be null and void, having no further
force or effect, and that said Agreement will not be admissible as evidence in

period, he shall have forever waived his right to revoke this Agreement, and
the Agreement shall thereafter have full force and effect as of the eighth

hereto had an opportunity to negotiate the language of, and draft, this
Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that there is no single drafter of
this Agreement and therefore, the general rule that ambiguities are to be
construed against the drafter is, and shall be, inapplicable.  If any language in this Agreement is found or
claimed to be ambiguous, each party shall have the same opportunity to present
evidence as to the actual intent of the Parties with respect to any such
ambiguous language without any inference or presumption being drawn against any
party.

16.           Headings.

Dear Mike:

As you know, management
has been working to both standardize the executive contracting processes and to
simplify the payroll administration of certain contractual benefits, with the
support of the Board.   Consistent
with that effort, we have been working to eliminate such benefits as car
allowances and housing and transportation payments to executives.  To further that objective, effective January
1, 2006, your base salary will be increased to $855,000 in consideration of
your agreement to forgo the housing and transportation benefits of your
contract retroactive to that date and throughout the remainder of your
contract.

Please indicate
your agreement to the foregoing by countersigning and returning an original
signed copy of this letter to me.
