                                    RECITALS

         A. The Executive is a Vice President and the Treasurer, Principal
Financial Officer and Assistant Secretary of the Company, and is the Trustee of
the Company's 401(k) Plan. The Executive also holds offices in Company
subsidiaries and affiliates, including the following positions: a Director of

         C. Pursuant to the Executive Employment Terms, the term of the
Executive's employment with the Company will expire on January 1, 2006.

         D. The Company and the Executive desire (i) to extend the term of the
Executive's employment with the Company for a period of three (3) months (to and
including March 31, 2006) (the "Extension Period"), (ii) to provide for the
resignation of the Executive as Trustee under those certain Trust Agreements,
each dated as of April 19, 2000 (collectively, the "Trust Agreements"), between

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Executive,
intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

<PAGE>

         1. TERM EXTENSION. Section 3 of the Executive Employment Terms is
hereby amended by extending the ending date of the Executive's employment with
the Company from January 1, 2006 to March 31, 2006, inclusive.

         2. RESIGNATION AS TRUSTEE. Pursuant to Section 11(a) of each of the
Trust Agreements, the Executive hereby resigns as Trustee thereunder. Pursuant
to Section 7.9(a) of the Company's 401(k) Plan, the Executive hereby resigns as
Trustee thereunder. By agreement between the Company and the Executive, such
resignations shall become effective on the earlier of (A) the Separation Date or
(B) the date on which a successor trustee, appointed by the Company, shall have
accepted such appointment.

         3. EMPLOYMENT SEPARATION. The separation of the Executive from his
employment with the Company and his relinquishment of the offices of Vice
President, Treasurer and Assistant Secretary of the Company and of the Company
subsidiary and affiliate offices described in Recital A hereto (collectively,
the "Separation") shall become effective as of the Separation Date.

         4. SEPARATION COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

                  A. Unless the Executive shall have been terminated for "Cause"
(as defined in the Executive Employment Terms) before March 31, 2006 (such event
being hereinafter referred to as a "Disqualifying Termination"), the Executive
shall be entitled to the post-employment compensation (the "Severance")
prescribed by the second paragraph of Section 12 of the Executive Employment
Terms, i.e., his base salary and auto allowance (as provided in Section 5
thereof), for the one (1) year post-employment period prescribed therein which
shall run from the Separation Date (the "Post-Employment Period") (e.g.,
assuming no earlier termination, the Post-Employment Period shall run from April
1, 2006 to and including March 31, 2007); and such Severance shall be payable as
and when prescribed by Section 12 of the Executive Employment Terms. The parties
acknowledge and agree that any voluntary termination by the Executive during the
Extension Period pursuant to Section 12 of the Executive Employment Terms
(including compliance with the advance notice requirement prescribed therein)
shall, for purposes of that Section, be deemed to have occurred "after the end
of the Term" within the meaning of that Section.

<PAGE>

                  B. The vacation and other benefits to which the Executive is
entitled under Sections 8 and 11 of the Executive Employment Terms shall
terminate as of the Separation Date in accordance with the provisions of the
third paragraph of Section 12 of the Executive Employment Terms; provided that
the Executive (I) will be credited with, and entitled to payment for, his five
(5)carryover vacation days for 2005 and his full vacation allotment of twenty
(20) days, as set forth in Section 8 of the Executive Employment Terms, for
calendar year 2006 as though he had remained in the employ of the Company
through the end of 2006. The Executive shall be entitled to payment of all
accrued and unused vacation pay in accordance with normal Company practices.

                  C. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the rights and
benefits, if any, to which the Executive is entitled under any employee benefit
plans and deferred compensation plans in which he participated or by which he
was covered during his employment with the Company (including, without
limitation, the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and Agreement for the
Executive, dated as of April 19, 2000, as amended through Amendment No. 3, dated
as of November 28, 2005)), and under any stock option agreements with the
Company to which the Executive is a party, all in accordance with the respective
terms and conditions of these Company plans and agreements (collectively, the
"Other Company Plans").

                  D. If the Executive, by written notice to the Company, elects
COBRA continuation coverage (for the period after the Separation Date) under the
Company health insurance policy by which he is currently covered, then, provided
that there shall not have been any Disqualifying Termination, the Company will
reimburse the Executive for the premiums paid by the Executive thereunder during
the Post-Employment Period.

                  E. If, at any time from and after the Separation Date, the
Executive obtains life insurance coverage and/or disability coverage
substantially similar to the life insurance and disability insurance coverages
to which the Executive was theretofore entitled as a Company employee in
accordance with Section 11 of the Executive Employment Terms, and the Executive
notifies the Company in writing of these post-Separation Date coverages, then,
provided that there shall not have been any Disqualifying Termination, the
Company will reimburse the Executive for the premiums paid by the Executive for
such coverage(s) during the twelve (12) month Post-Employment Period in an
amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the amount of such premiums or (ii) the
amount of the premiums that would have been paid by the Company for such
coverage(s) during the twelve (12) month Post-Employment Period had the
Executive remained in the employ of the Company during such period. The Company
will also continue to bear the expense, up to $1,200 in the aggregate, of the
term life insurance coverage maintained pursuant to, and in accordance with,
Section 6 of the Executive Employment Terms during the twelve (12) month
Post-Employment Period.

                  F. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that, except as
provided in this Agreement and in the Executive Employment Terms and the Other
Company Plans (including, without limitation, the Company's 401(k) Plan and any
right of the Executive thereunder to his pro rata share of any matching
contribution that the Company may, in its discretion, elect to make thereunder
with respect to the Plan Year ending June 30, 2006), as and to the extent
amended hereby, or as otherwise required by any mandatory and unwaivable
provision of applicable law: all compensation and other benefits which the
Executive may be entitled to receive from the Company shall terminate as of the
Separation Date; and the Company shall have no other or further obligations,
economic or otherwise, to the Executive.

                  G. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the full
vacation allotment for calendar year 2006 described in Section 4(B) above and
the insurance premium reimbursements described in Sections 4(D) and 4(E) above
are benefits to which the Executive would not otherwise be entitled under the
Executive Employment Terms upon his Separation from the Company.

         5. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS:

                  A. The Executive represents and warrants that, to the best of
his knowledge and belief, he has not violated or failed to comply with, and will
not violate or fail to comply with, (i) any of the Executive Employment Terms,
(ii) any of the confidentiality, intellectual property and non-competition
covenants set forth in Exhibit A to the Executive Employment Terms, or (iii) any
of the provisions of the Code of Conduct annexed as Exhibit B to the Executive
Employment Terms (the covenants and agreements of the Executive described in

as the "Contractual Undertakings").

                  B. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that he is and will

<PAGE>

                  C. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees (i) that he
is expected to and will devote the same time, energy, diligence and attention to
his employment with the Company during the Extension Period as he had
theretofore devoted to his Company employment, (ii) that if his performance
during the Extension Period is not satisfactory to the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company, the Company shall have the right to terminate his employment by
written notice, which notice shall be effective immediately or at such other
time as shall be specified in such notice, and (iii) that if the Company
terminates his employment during the Extension Period based solely upon and in
accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 5(C), his termination shall be
deemed to be other than for "cause" (i.e., without "cause") within the meaning
of Section 12 of the Executive Employment Terms, and the twelve (12)-month
Post-Employment Period shall begin to run from the date of termination.

                  D. The parties agree that, for purposes of the Contractual
Undertakings in Section II of Exhibit A to the Executive Employment Terms (i.e.,
the non-compete covenants), the post-termination period specified therein shall
commence on the Separation Date.

         6. COOPERATION AND ASSISTANCE:

                  A. From and after the Effective Date (as defined in Section
8(A)(v) below), the Executive will provide such cooperation and assistance to
the Company as the Company may reasonably request and as may be mutually agreed
upon by the Executive and the Company in connection with any Company matters in
which the Executive was involved while in the employ of the Company, or of which
the Executive has knowledge or information by reason of his Company employment,

are mutually agreeable to the Executive and the Company.

                  C. The Company will reimburse the Executive, in accordance
with Company policies, practices and procedures, for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (such as lodging and travel expenses) incurred by the
Executive in providing such cooperation and assistance to the Company, subject
to the receipt by the Company of appropriately itemized and documented requests
by the Executive therefor.

                  D. The Executive shall not be entitled to any compensation for
any such cooperation and assistance provided by the Executive to the Company

any other similar Florida state or local laws, statutes, regulations or

                  C. The Executive represents that he has not sought, and agrees
that he will not seek or accept, any damages or other relief in any claim or
action by any federal, state or local governmental authority or agency, or by
any other person or entity, against the Company or any other Releasees with
respect to any Claim or other matter relating to any events or circumstances up

                  D. Anything in this Section 7 to the contrary notwithstanding,
the parties agree that the release effected hereby is not intended, and shall

Section 4 above to which he is entitled independently of this Agreement, (iii)
to indemnification in accordance with the By-Laws of the Company and applicable

coverage, if any, provided thereunder.

         8. ADDITIONAL ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND AGREEMENTS:

                  A. The Executive understands, acknowledges and agrees that:

                                       7
<PAGE>

                           (i) Subject to Section 8(B) below, no rights or
Claims that may arise after the date on which the Executive executes this
Agreement are being waived by the Executive;

                           (ii) The Executive has been advised to consult with
an attorney of his own choosing prior to executing this Agreement and that he
has done so or has knowingly waived his right to do so;

                           (iii) The Executive has twenty-one (21) days from his
receipt of this Agreement within which to review and consider this Agreement;

                           (iv) The Executive has seven (7) days after his
execution of this Agreement within which to revoke this Agreement; and

                           (v) This Agreement shall not become effective or
enforceable until the seven (7) day revocation period described in clause (iv)
above shall have expired (such expiration date being referred to herein as the
"Effective Date").

                  B. The Executive (i) agrees to execute and deliver to the
Company on the Separation Date a written instrument, in the form attached hereto
as Annex I, pursuant to which the Executive ratifies, confirms and remakes,
effective on and as of the Separation Date, the release effected by Section 7
hereof, and (ii) acknowledges and agrees that the execution and delivery of such
instrument shall be a condition precedent to the compensation and other benefits
provided by Section 4 above.

         9. NO DISPARAGING OR DETRIMENTAL COMMUNICATIONS:

                  A. The Executive shall refrain from making any statements or
other communications of a defamatory, disparaging, derogatory or otherwise
negative nature to any person or entity concerning (i) the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers,
employees or shareholders, (ii) any product or service provided by the Company
or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or (iii) the future prospects of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

                  B. The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates shall
refrain from making any statements or other communications of a defamatory,
disparaging, derogatory or otherwise negative nature to any person or entity
concerning the Executive or the employment relationship of the Executive with
the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

                                       8
<PAGE>

                  C. The parties agree that it shall not be a violation of this
Section 9 for either party to make truthful statements when required to do so by
a court of law, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the
party, or by any administrative or legislative body with apparent jurisdiction
to order the party to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information.

         10. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that
the remedies of the Company at law for any breach or threatened breach of any of
the provisions of Sections 5 and/or 9(A) would be inadequate and that the
Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or
threatened breach. The Executive, therefore, agrees that, in the event of any
such breach or threatened breach, the Company, without posting any bond, shall
be entitled, in addition to any available rights or remedies at law, to bring an
action in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of obtaining
equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining
order, a temporary or permanent injunction, or any other equitable remedy which
may then be available.

         11. CURE. The Company shall give written notice to the Executive of any
breach or alleged breach of the terms of the Agreement or the Contractual
Undertakings (the "Cure Notice"). The Cure Notice shall state in detail the
particular act or acts, or failure or failures to act, that constitute the
breach or alleged breach of the Agreement or the Contractual Undertakings. The
Executive shall have ten (10) days after the date that such written notice has
been given to the Executive and the ten (10) day cure period has elapsed

         12. MISCELLANEOUS:

                           (i) Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or
obligations of the Executive hereunder shall be assignable or delegable by the
Executive; and any purported assignment or delegation by the Executive in

choosing in connection with his consideration and execution of this Agreement,
the Company will reimburse the Executive for the attorneys' fees so incurred by
the Executive up to, but not exceeding, $2,500.00, and then only for such
attorneys' fees as relate solely to the review and execution of this Agreement
and subject to receipt by the Company of an appropriately itemized and
documented statement of legal services and disbursements (which statement may be
redacted to protect matters subject to the attorney-client privilege, but must
