your Health Care Coverage premiums and those of your dependents under COBRA for six (6) full months following the month in which you were terminated without Cause or you voluntarily terminated your
employment for Good Reason. 

    For
purposes of this letter, the following terms shall be defined as follows: 

    (a) "Cause"
is defined as: (i) a material act of dishonesty made by you in connection with your responsibilities as an executive officer of the Company; (ii) conviction
of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony, or a crime involving moral turpitude; (iii) your gross misconduct in connection with your duties as an executive officer of the Company; or (iv) continued

the Board's belief that you have not substantially performed your duties, and (B) following a reasonable opportunity, not to be less than thirty (30) days, for you to cure any substantial failure of
performance of your duties. 

    (b) "Change

of securities of the Company representing more than 51% of the total voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding voting securities; or (ii) the date of the consummation of a merger or
consolidation of the Company with any other corporation that has been approved by the stockholders or the Board of the Company; or (iii) the date on which the stockholders or the Board of the Company

written consent, a material reduction of the duties, title, authority or responsibilities, relative to your duties, title, authority or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to such
reduction, or the assignment to you of such reduced duties, title, authority or responsibilities; (ii) a reduction by the Company in your annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to such
reduction; (iii) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits, including bonuses, to which you were entitled immediately prior to such reduction, with the result that
your overall benefits package is materially reduced; (iv) your relocation to a facility or a location more than forty (40) miles from your residence at the time of the relocation without your express
written consent; or (v) the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption of this agreement by any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger
or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company.
