In the event that Executive's employment is terminated by reason of Executive's death, the Company shall pay to Executive's executor, beneficiaries, or estate, as appropriate, all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused vacation, all personal paid leave, and any expense reimbursements then due and owing.  Thereafter, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease.  Nothing in this Section shall affect any entitlement of Executive's heirs or devisees to the benefits of any life insurance plan or other applicable benefits.
b.Termination In The Event Of Disability.  In the event that Executive's employment is terminated by reason of Executive's disability, the Company shall pay to Executive all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused vacation, all personal paid leave, and any expense reimbursements then due and owing.  Thereafter all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease.  Nothing in this section shall affect Executive's rights under any disability plan in which Executive is a participant.  
c.Termination For Cause.  In the event that Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, the Company shall pay to Executive all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused vacation, all personal paid leave, and any expense reimbursements then due and owing.  Thereafter all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease.
d.Termination By The Company Without Cause.  In the event that Executive's employment is terminated  by the Company Without Cause, the Company shall pay to Executive all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused vacation, all personal paid leave, and any expense reimbursements then due and owing.  In addition, upon termination Without Cause, the Company shall pay Executive any Severance Pay to which Executive is entitled pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement.
e.Voluntary Termination By Executive.  In the event the Executive voluntarily terminates Executive's employment, the Company shall pay to Executive all accrued Base Salary, all accrued but unused vacation, all personal paid leave, and any expense reimbursements then due and owing.

	6.
	SEVERANCE PAY

In the event that Executive's employment hereunder is involuntarily terminated by the Company Without Cause, or voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason, as described herein, Executive shall be entitled to the following additional compensation (“Severance Pay”):
a.Termination Within Two Years Of Appointment of New CEO.  If Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company Without Cause or voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason, and such termination occurs within two years of the Company hiring or appointing a Chief Executive Officer to replace Robert A. Stine in this position, the Company shall 

pay Executive the sums set forth in Section 5 above and, in addition, a lump sum comprised of the following amounts: (i) an amount equal to twice Executive's Base Salary in effect at the time of Executive's termination and (ii) an amount equal to twice Executive's average annual bonus based on the annual bonus Executive was paid in the three (3) years preceding Executive's termination.  In addition, Company shall continue to pay its portion of Executive's medical benefits, under the same terms and payment percentages in effect as of the date of Executive's termination, for a period of two years after Executive's termination.  Any stock earned by the Executive pursuant to the Company's Executive Stock Grant Plan as of the date of Executive's termination shall be considered to have vested as of the date of Executive's termination from the Company. Further, if Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company Without Cause or voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason, and such termination occurs within two years of the Company hiring or appointing a Chief Executive Officer to replace Robert A. Stine in this position, then (notwithstanding any prior agreement to the contrary, but subject to applicable law) any milestone performance share grant and rolling three-year performance grant that had been previously granted to Executive, or that meet the achievement criteria for vesting and are approved by the Board of Directors for vesting within twelve (12) months from Executive's involuntary termination Without Cause or voluntarily termination by Executive for Good Reason, shall be considered vested for purposes of this agreement. Specifically, if Executive's performance milestones are achieved within twelve (12) months from the date of his involuntary termination Without Cause or voluntarily termination by Executive for Good Reason, the share grants associated with such milestones will be deemed to have vested as if Executive were still working at the Company.  If, however, the Company does not achieve the performance criteria during the twelve (12) months after Executive's involuntary termination Without Cause or voluntarily termination by Executive for Good Reason, the performance based grants will not vest and Executive shall have no right to or in any of them.  It is expressly understood that this provision relating to performance based grants is only applicable if Executive is involuntarily terminated Without Cause or if his employment is voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason. It is also expressly understood that if any such provision violates any applicable law, then this provision relating to the vesting of performance based grants is void and of no effect per paragraph 13 below, and Executive shall not be compensated for such loss. Likewise, if any such vesting results in negative tax consequences or penalties, they shall be borne by Executive.
b.Termination Two Or More Years After Appointment of New CEO.  If Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company Without Cause or voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason, and such termination occurs two or more years after the Company hires or appoints a Chief Executive Officer to replace Robert A. Stine in this position, Company shall pay Executive the sums set forth in Section 5 above and, in addition, a lump sum comprised of the following amounts: (i) an amount equal to Executive's Base Salary in effect at the time of Executive's termination and (ii) an amount equal to Executive's average annual bonus based on the annual bonus that Executive was paid in the three (3) years preceding Executive's termination.  In addition, Company shall continue to pay its portion of Executive's medical benefits, under the same terms and payment percentages in effect as of the date of Executive's termination, for a period of one year after Executive's termination.  Any stock earned by the Executive pursuant to the Company's Executive Stock Grant Plan as of the date of Executive's termination shall be considered to have vested as of the date of Executive's termination from the Company.
c.Release.  As a condition to receiving Severance Pay, Executive shall be required to execute a general release of all claims (other than claims for amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 6) as set forth in the Separation Agreement and General Release attached hereto as Exhibit A.

		
	7.

b.Resignation and Cooperation.  Upon termination of Executive's employment, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices and directorships then held with the Company.  Following any termination of employment, Executive shall cooperate with the Company in the winding up of pending work on behalf of the Company and the orderly transfer of work to other employees.  Executive shall also cooperate with the Company in the defense of any action brought by any third party against the Company that relates to Executive's employment by the Company.
c.Non-Solicitation.  Executive acknowledges that because of Executive's position in the Company, Executive will have access to material intellectual property and confidential information.

d.Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.  Executive recognizes and acknowledges that Executive has had and will continue to have access to various confidential and/or proprietary information concerning the Company, corporations affiliated with the Company, and its clients and third parties doing business with the Company.  Executive agrees that Executive will not, either directly or indirectly, (i) divulge, use, disclose, reproduce, distribute or otherwise provide confidential information of the Company or of any affiliate of the Company to any person, firm, corporation, or other person or entity; (ii) take any action that would make confidential information available to the general public in any form; (iii) take any action that uses confidential information to solicit any client or prospective client of the Company or any affiliate of the Company; or (iv) take any action that uses confidential information for solicitation or marketing for any service or product on Executive's behalf or on behalf of any entity other than the Company or any affiliate of the Company, except, in any such case (a) in connection with the performance of Executive's duties to the Company, (b) as required in response to a subpoena or as otherwise required by force of law, or (c) as is made with the express written consent of the Company.  In the event that Executive is requested to disclose confidential information pursuant to a subpoena, or as otherwise required by force of law, Executive shall promptly notify the Company of such request.

Subject to the foregoing restriction on assignment by Executive, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each of the parties; the affiliates, officers, directors, agents, successors and assigns of the Company; and the heirs, devisees, spouses, legal representatives and successors of Executive.
