the obligations described in this Agreement, (i) participate in charitable, civic, political, social, trade, or other non-profit organizations and (ii) with the consent of
the Board, serve as a non-management director of business corporations (or in a like capacity in other for-profit organizations). 

        4.    Place of Performance.    In connection with the Executive's employment by the Company,
the Executive shall be based at the principal executive offices of the Company, except as otherwise agreed by the Executive and the Company and except for reasonable travel on Company business.

        5.1.    Base Salary.    During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay to the Executive
an annual base salary (the "Base Salary"), which initially shall be at the rate per year as set forth in Schedule 1.  The Base Salary shall be payable
semi-monthly or in such other installments as shall be consistent with the Company's payroll procedures. The Base Salary may be
increased at any time or from time to time, but it may not be decreased without the consent of the Executive. 

        5.2    Bonus.    The Executive shall be eligible for a performance bonus consistent with the
bonus plan adopted by the Board for each fiscal year as set forth in Schedule 1. 

        5.3    Benefits.    During the Employment Period, the Executive will be entitled to receive
such other benefits approved by the Board and made available to similarly situated senior executives of the Company, including health insurance, disability insurance, and 401-K benefits.
At all times the Company agrees to maintain Director's and Officer's Liability coverage for the Executive. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company from changing insurance
carriers. 

        5.4    Vacation; Holidays.    The Executive shall be entitled to all public holidays observed
by the Company and a total of five weeks of vacation in accordance with the applicable vacation policies of the Company, which shall be taken at a reasonable time or times.

expenses and appropriate receipts. 

        7.    Termination of Employment.

        7.2.    Notice of Termination.    Any termination of the Executive's employment by the Company
or the Executive (other than because of the Executive's death) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with  Section 10.1 hereof. For purposes
of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a
notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, if any, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis
for termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. Termination of the Executive's employment shall take effect on the Date of Termination.

this Section 8.1 shall be paid at the time they are due, and the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive or his or her estate
under this Agreement.

Disability from any insurance or other policies provided by the Company. 

        8.3.    By the Company with Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason.    If the Company
terminates the Executive's employment during the Employment Period for Cause or if the Executive voluntarily terminates the Executive's employment during the Employment Period other than for Good
Reason, the Company shall pay the Executive the Executive's full Base Salary through the Date of Termination and all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which Executive is entitled as of the Date of
Termination in connection with any fringe benefits pursuant to Section 5.3 and expenses pursuant to  Section 6. The payments contemplated by this
Section 8.3 shall be paid at the time such
payments are due, and the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement. 

        8.4.    By the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason.    If the Company
