    WHEREAS,
      the Company and Executive desire to provide for the employment of Executive

    1. Employment.
      

     

    1.1 Position. The
      Company
      hereby
      employs
the
      Executive
      on an
at-will basis,
      and
the
      Executive
      hereby
      accepts
      employment
      on an
at-will basis,
      as the
Chief
      Financial Officer of
      the
      Company,
      on the
      terms and conditions hereinafter
      set
      forth

     

    1.2 Duties.
      The Executive shall serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and shall
      perform the customary duties and responsibilities of such positions including,

      Executive Officer of the Company.
      These
      positions, duties, and responsibilities can be modified as reasonably
      required
      to suit the specific requirements and needs of the Company, provided that
the
      same
      shall be commensurate with the Executive’s experience and expertise and shall
      not result in the Executive having duties and responsibilities substantially
      less senior and more onerous to the Executive than those set forth on Exhibit
      A
      attached hereto. 

     

    1.3
      Time
      and Effort. During the Term, the Executive shall, except for vacation periods
      as
      provided for herein and reasonable periods of illness or disability, devote
      all
      of the Executive’s working time, attention, abilities, skill, labor and efforts
      to the performance of the Executive’s obligations hereunder. The Executive shall
      not, during the Term, engage in any other business activity or conduct, whether
      or not such business activity or conduct is pursued for gain, profit or other
      pecuniary advantage, which activity or conduct adversely affects in any material
      respect the Executive’s ability to perform his obligations hereunder.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      the
      parties recognize and agree that Executive may engage in
      personal investments and other business, civic or charitable activities that
      do
      not conflict with the business and affairs of the Company or interfere
in
      any
      material respect with Executive's performance of his duties hereunder. The
      Executive will at all times perform all of the duties and obligations required
      of the Executive by the terms of this Agreement in a loyal and conscientious
      manner and to the best of the Executive’s ability and experience. Executive
      agrees to comply in all material respects with (i) the policies and directives
      of the Company, and (ii)
      with all
      applicable laws and regulations of the states in which the Company and its
      affiliates operate,
      all as
      in effect from time to time.

     

    1.4

      days off for illness, religious observance and personal reasons, all in
      accordance with the Company’s policy in effect from time to time. 

    

    6. Termination
      Payments. 

     

    (a) Upon
      termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, the Company's
      obligations to Executive shall terminate, subject to prompt payment within
      thirty (30) days of all monies due hereunder up to the date of termination
      including unpaid Base Salary and reimbursement of expenses as well as
      continuation of any applicable benefits prescribed under the applicable plans
      and payment of the proceeds of any applicable disability or other insurance
      policy relating to Executive. In the event this Agreement is terminated for
      any
      reason other than “Cause,” the Company shall also pay the Executive, within such
      thirty (30) day period, a lump sum amount equal to the Executive’s Base Salary
      then in effect for a period of two (2) months. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b) 
      In the
      event that the payments pursuant to Section 6(a), when considered in conjunction
      with any other payments payable hereunder after the termination date
      (collectively, “Post-Termination Payments”) constitute “an excess parachute
      payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of
      1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”), then the Company shall pay to
      Executive, in addition to the payments required by this Section 6 above, an
      additional amount (the “Additional Amount”) which, after reduction for income
      taxes and excise taxes on the Additional Amount, is sufficient to provide for
      the payment of any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or applicable
      successor thereto (“Section 4999”) that may be due by Executive on the
      Post-Termination Payments. With respect to any payment that is made to Executive
      under the terms of this Agreement in the year of his termination of employment
      and on which an excise tax under Section 4999 will be assessed, the payment
      determined under this Subsection shall be made to Executive not later than
      thirty (30) days following the termination date. With respect to any payment
      made under the terms of this Agreement in any other year and on which an excise
      tax under Section 4999 will be assessed, the payment under this Subsection
      shall
      be made to Executive not later than December 31st of the year in which the
      payment on which such excise tax will be assessed is made to Executive or,
      if
      earlier, the date on which such tax is required to be remitted to the Internal
      Revenue Service. 

    

    (c) 
      Notwithstanding anything contained herein or at law to the contrary, the amount
      payable to Executive pursuant to this Section 6 shall not be reduced or
      otherwise affected by any sums earned or that could be earned by Executive
      pursuant to any employment arrangement or other business activity in which
      the
      Executive may or could possibly participate after the termination date. The
      Company and Executive agree that amounts payable to Executive under this Section
      6 are reasonable liquidated damages with respect to wrongful or early
      termination of this Agreement, and shall be absolutely and unconditionally
      payable to Executive, his heirs, successors, administrator or executor as
      provided herein without proof of actual damages and without regard to
      Executive’s efforts to mitigate damages. 

    

    (e) Upon
      termination of this Agreement, the provisions of Sections 6 through 12 shall
      survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of five (5)
      years.

     

    (f) As
      used
      herein, "Cause" shall be limited to the Executive’s: (A) embezzlement or willful
      misappropriation of funds of the Company, (B) willful misconduct that causes
      material harm to the Company or any of its affiliates; (C) conviction or
      commission of, or plea of nolo contendere by, Executive of any felony,
      misdemeanor or other illegal conduct involving an act of moral turpitude or
      otherwise relating directly or indirectly to the business or reputation of
      the
      Company; (D) habitual drug or other substance abuse that interferes in any
      material respects with the performance of Executive's duties under this
      Agreement; (E) debarment by any federal agency that would limit or prohibit
      Executive from serving in his prescribed capacity for the Company under this
      Agreement; (F) continuing failure to communicate and fully disclose any and
      all
      information related to the business, operations, management and accounting
      of
      the Company and/or its affiliates to the Board and CEO, the failure of which
      would adversely impact the Company or may result in a violation of state or
      federal securities laws; (G) continuing willful and intentional failure to
      perform his duties as stated herein or as reasonably requested by the Board
      or
      CEO; or (H) dishonesty towards, fraud upon, or deliberate injury or attempted
      injury to the Company or any of its affiliates.

    7. Confidential
      Information of Company. Executive acknowledges
      that Executive
      has been exposed to the Company's confidential and proprietary information
      prior
      to the Effective date and during
      the performance
      of his
      duties hereunder
      Executive will
      be
      handling financial, accounting, statistical, marketing and personnel information
      of customers of the
      Company
      ("Confidential Information"). All such Confidential Information is confidential
      and shall not be disclosed, directly or indirectly, or used by Executive in
      any
      way, either during the Term
      of this
      Agreement or for
      five
      (5) years
      thereafter except as required in the course of Executive's employment with
      the
      Company
      and/or
      its affiliates. Confidential information will not include information which:
      (a)
      is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part
      of
      Executive, public information; (b) was acquired by Executive before receiving
      such information from the Company and without restriction as to use or
      disclosure; (c) is hereafter rightfully furnished to the Executive by a third
      party, without restriction as to use or disclosure; (d) is required to be
      disclosed pursuant to law including, without limitation, to any governmental

      efforts to give the Company reasonable advance notice of such required
      disclosure; or (e) is disclosed with the prior written consent of the Company.
      

    

    8. Unfair
      Competition; Non-Solicitation.

    

    8.1 Unfair
      Competition. During the Term
      of this
      Agreement, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as a partner,
      employee, director, creditor, stockholder, or otherwise, promote, participate,
      or engage in any activity or other business which is competitive with
      the
      Company’s business. The obligation of Executive not to compete with Company
      shall not prohibit Executive from owning or purchasing up to two (2%) percent
      of
      any class of equity securities
      of any corporation having a class of equity securities registered pursuant
      to
      the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are publicly owned and
      regularly traded on a recognized stock exchange or on the
      over-the-counter
      market provided that such ownership represents a personal investment and that
      neither Executive nor any group of persons including the Executive in any way,
      directly or indirectly, manages or exercises control of any such corporation,
      guarantees any of its financial obligations or otherwise takes part in its
      business other than exercising his right as a shareholder or seeks to do any
      of
      the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.1 to the contrary,
      the
      Company and Executive agree that Executive may promote, participate, or engage,
      as a partner, employee, director, creditor, stockholder, or otherwise, in the
      entities listed on Exhibit B. 

    

    8.2 Non-Solicitation
      of Customers. While employed by the Company, and for a period of one (1) year
      thereafter, Executive agrees not to divert or attempt to divert (by solicitation
      or other means), whether directly, or indirectly, the Company's or its
      affiliate's customers existing at the time his employment terminates.

    

    8.3 Non-Solicitation
      of Employees. During the term of Executive's employment with the Company, and
      for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Executive shall not directly or
      indirectly solicit or encourage, or cause others to solicit or encourage, any
      employees of Company or its affiliates to terminate their employment with the
      Company. However, this obligation will not affect any responsibility Executive
      may have as an employee if the Company with respect to the bona fide hiring
      and
      firing of the Company's personnel.

    

    8.4 Non-Disparagement.
      Upon termination of Executive's employment with the Company, Executive agrees
      to
      not make any disparaging remarks about the Company, or its affiliates, or any
      officers, directors, employees, consultants or independent contractors of or
      to
      any of the foregoing.

    9. Trade
      Secrets. Executive shall not disclose to any others, or take or use for
      Executive’s own purposes or purposes of any others, during the term of this
      Agreement or at any time thereafter, any of Company’s trade secrets, including
      without limitation, Confidential Information, customer lists, computer programs
      or computer software of Company. Executive agrees that these restrictions shall
      also apply to (i) trade secrets belonging to third parties in Company’s
      possession and (ii) trade secrets conceived, originated, discovered or developed
      by Executive during the Term
      of this
      Agreement
      relating
      to the affairs of the Company.
      Information of Company shall not be considered a trade secret and
      its
      disclosure or use by Executive will be permitted if it falls within any of
      the
      provisions of the third sentence of Section 7 above.

    

    10. Inventions;
      Ownership Rights. Executive agrees that all ideas, techniques, inventions,
      systems, formulas, designs, discoveries, technical information, programs,
      prototypes and similar developments (“Inventions”) developed, created,
      discovered, made, written or obtained by Executive in the course of or as a
      result of performance of his duties hereunder, and all related industrial
      property, copyrights, patent rights, trade secrets and other forms of protection
      thereof, shall be and remain the sole property of the
      Company
      and its assigns. Executive shall
      promptly disclose to Company, or any persons designated by it, all Inventions,
      made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by Executive, either alone
      or jointly with others, during the Term which are related to or useful in the
      business of the Company, or result from tasks assigned to Executive by the
      Company, or result from use of premises owned, leased or contracted by the
      Company. Such disclosure shall continue for one year after termination of
      employment with respect to anything that would be an Invention if made,
      conceived, reduced to practice or learned prior to termination of employment.
      Executive
      agrees to execute or cause to be executed such assignments and applications,
      registrations and other documents and to take such other action as may be
reasonably
      requested
      by
      the
      Company
      to enable the
      Company
      to protect its rights to any such Inventions. 

    

    11. Indemnification.
      In the event Executive or his estate or executors becomes a party, or is
      threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action,
      suit or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of Company, and whether
      civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, by reason of
      Executive's performance of Executive's duties hereunder or the fact that
      Executive is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the
      Company, or is or was serving at the request of Company as a director, officer,
      employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
      or
      other enterprise, the Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by
      applicable law, hold the Executive harmless from and against any claim, loss
      or
      cause of action arising from or relating thereto; provided, however, that the
      indemnity provided under this Section shall not apply with respect to any
      liability or matter arising from acts or omissions not in good faith or which
      involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for any breach
      of
      the Executive’s duty of loyalty to the Company, or for any transaction from
      which the Executive derived an improper personal benefit. If any claim is
      asserted against the Executive for which the Executive reasonably believes
      in
      good faith he is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the Company shall, at
      its
      option and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (i) assume the
      defense thereof or (ii) pay the Executive’s reasonable legal expenses (or cause
      such expenses to be paid) on a quarterly basis, if the Company does not so
      assume the defense; provided, that the Executive shall reimburse the Company
      for
      such amounts if the Executive shall be found by a final, non-appealable order
      of
      a court of competent jurisdiction or any arbitrator not to be entitled to
      indemnification hereunder. Executive shall cooperate as reasonably requested
      by
      the Company in the defense of any such threatened or pending action, suit or
      proceeding. The Company's indemnity obligations and duties as set forth in
      this
      shall survive indefinitely the termination or expiration of this Agreement
      for
      any reason.

              Representations

              a.

            	
              In
                General.
                The Subscriber has full power and authority to execute each Subscription
                Document and to subscribe for and purchase Units hereunder. If the
                Subscriber is not a natural person, the Subscriber’s purchase of Units and
                its execution and delivery of each Subscription Document has been
                authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or other action,
                and
                the Subscriber is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
                in
                the Subscriber’s jurisdiction of organization, and has all consents,
                approvals and orders of any person required to be obtained in order
                for it
                to purchase the Units, to fully perform the provisions of the Subscription
                Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
                and
                thereby. Each Subscription Document is, and will be, the legal valid
                and
                binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber
                in accordance with its terms. There is no action, investigation or
                proceeding pending, or, to the Subscriber’s actual knowledge, threatened
                against the Subscriber which, if adversely determined, would materially
                adversely affect the Subscriber’s business or financial condition or the
                Subscriber’s ability to pay the Subscription Price or otherwise to
                consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Documents.

                No
                authorization, approval, consent or license of any person is required
                to
                be obtained for the purchase of the Units by the Subscriber, other
                than as
                have been obtained are in full force and effect. The execution and
                delivery of the Subscription Documents does not, and the consummation
                of
                the transactions contemplated hereby will not, result in any violation
                of
                or constitute a default under any material agreement or other instrument
                to which the Subscriber is a party or by which the Subscriber or
                any of
                its properties are bound, or to the best of the Subscriber’s knowledge,
                any permit, franchise, judgment, order, decree, statute, rule or
                regulation to which the Subscriber or any of its businesses or properties
                is subject.

                The Subscriber is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule
                501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
                The Subscriber (a) has the financial ability to bear the substantial
                economic risks of an investment in the Company, (b) has adequate
                means of
                providing for its current needs and other contingencies, (c) is able
                to
                bear the substantial economic risks of an investment in the Company
                for an
                indefinite period of time, (d) has no need for liquidity in its investment
                in the Company and (a) is able to afford a complete loss of its investment
                in the Company. The Subscriber is acquiring the Units to be purchased
                by
                it at the Closing for the Subscriber’s own account, in each case not with
                a view to or for resale or for sale in connection with any distribution
                of
                all or any part of such Shares or otherwise. The Subscriber understands
                that it must bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares
                for an
                indefinite period of time because, among other things, the offing
                and sale
                of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act or
                state
                securities or “blue sky” laws and, therefore, the Shares cannot be sold
                unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and
                any
                applicable state securities and “blue sky” laws or unless an exemption
                wherefrom is available. The Subscriber also understands that sales
                or
                transfers of the Shares are further restricted by state securities
                or
                “blue sky” laws. The Subscriber hereby agrees not to transfer or dispose
                of all or any part of the Shares except in full compliance with the
                requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
                or
                “blue sky” laws. The Subscriber agrees that any certificate evidencing the
                Shares or any portion thereof may contain such legends evidencing
                the
                various legal and contractual restrictions upon the transferability
                thereof as the Company, acting upon the advice of its counsel, may
                determine.
