                  (a) PAYMENT OF BENEFITS. In the event that:

                           (i)      during the three (3) year period following a
                                    Change of Control (a) the Company initiates
                                    an Employment Termination for reasons which
                                    do not constitute Good Cause; or (b) the
                                    Associate initiates an Employment
                                    Termination for any reason after Associate
                                    suffers an Adverse Change in Employment
                                    Circumstances, or after the Company
                                    adversely changes the incentive compensation
                                    plan benefits payable or to be payable in
                                    the future to Associate; or

                           (ii)     during the one (1) year period following a
                                    Change of Control the Associate initiates an
                                    Employment Termination for any reason by
                                    notifying the Company in writing that such
                                    Employment Termination is pursuant to this
                                    provision;

then the Company shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of such
Employment Termination, pay the Earned Severance Benefit to which Associate is
entitled, up to the amount of the Maximum Severance Benefit. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Associate

                                       4
<PAGE>

shall be ineligible to receive the Earned Severance Benefit
otherwise payable hereunder if Associate Actively Participated in any
transaction giving rise or relating to any Unapproved Change of Control.

                  (b) GROSS-UP PAYMENT. If Associate becomes entitled to
payments in the nature of compensation, including without limitation the Earned
Severance Benefit, all salaries, bonuses, severance pay, fringe benefits and the
accelerated vesting of options or other equity-based compensation that
constitute a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any successor statute then in effect
(collectively, the "Aggregate Change of Control Payments"), then the Company
shall pay an additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") to Associate at the time
specified in the following paragraph. The Gross-Up Payment shall be equal to the
amount necessary so that the net amount of the Aggregate Change of Control
Payments retained by Associate, after subtracting the parachute excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, as amended, or any successor statute then
in effect (the "Excise Tax"), and after also subtracting all federal, state or
local income tax, FICA tax and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment, shall be
equal to the net amount of the Aggregate Change in Control Payments that
Associate would have retained if no Excise Tax has been imposed and no Gross-Up
Payment had been paid. The amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined in
good faith by independent accountants or tax counsel selected by the Company and
acceptable to Associate, who shall apply the following assumptions: (i)
Associate shall be treated as paying federal income taxes at the highest
marginal rate in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is made, and
(ii) Associate shall be treated as paying state and local income taxes at the
highest marginal rate(s) in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is
made in the locality of Associate's residence as of the Termination Date, net of
the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that could be obtained from
deducting those state and local taxes.

                  The Gross-Up Payment shall be made within twenty business days
after the effective date of Associate's termination or resignation, provided
that if the Gross-Up Payment cannot be determined within that time, the Company
shall pay Associate within that time an estimate, determined in good faith by
the Company, of the minimum amount of the Gross-Up Payment and shall pay the
remainder (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code) as soon as the amount can be determined but in no event later than the
60th day after the effective date of Associate's termination or resignation. If
the estimated payment is more than the amount later determined to have been due,
the excess (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code) shall be repaid by Associate within five business days after written
demand.

                  If the actual Excise Tax imposed is more than the amount that
was taken into account in determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the
Company shall make an additional gross-up payment in respect of such excess
(plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) at the
time that the amount of the excess is finally determined."

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (c) TAX RETURN ASSISTANCE. The Company, at its expense, agrees
to supply Associate with advice from competent tax counsel with respect to
whether Associate should reflect and pay Excise Tax relating to the period or
periods in which Associate received payments or benefits under this Agreement
which may result in the imposition of the Excise Tax. Associate agrees to notify
the Company in a timely manner in the event of any audit by the IRS or any state
taxing authority in which the IRS or the state taxing authority determines that
such Excise Tax should be assessed against Associate and the Company agrees to
assist Associate in contesting any proposed assessment with respect to such
Excise Tax.

         11. SEVERANCE FOR TERMINATION NOT IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE OF
CONTROL.

                  (a) COMPANY OBLIGATION. If the provisions of Section 10 hereof
do not apply and Associate suffers an Employment Termination for reasons other
than Good Cause, or if Associate terminates his employment within 90 days after
Associate suffers an Adverse Change in Employment Circumstances, and in
consideration of Associate's compliance with his obligations under subsection
(f) below and Associate's execution of a general release in favor of the Company
and its affiliates, officers and directors, the Company shall pay Associate an
amount equal to ___% of the aggregate of Associate's salary, incentive
compensation and long-term incentive compensation which was payable for the
eight fiscal quarters prior to Associate's Termination Date and Associate shall
be entitled to the other benefits provided for in this Section 11.

                  (b) PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE PAYMENT. The Severance Payment shall
be paid in four equal installments, the first of which shall be paid within
thirty (30) days after the Termination Date. The other three installments will
be paid (together with accrued interest at the base rate of the Bank of America,
as adjusted when such rate is changed) six months, twelve months and twenty-four
months after the Termination Date, respectively. Associate agrees that in the
event that Associate breaches any provision of subsection (f) below or the
general release, his right to receive future installments of the Severance
Payment shall terminate as of the date of such breach.

                  (c) CONTINUATION OF BENEFITS. The Company, at its expense,
shall continue health, insurance and other welfare benefits and contributions to
the applicable retirement plan(s) for the benefit of Associate and his family at
the same level as would have occurred had there been no Employment Termination
for the period until the date the final installment of the Severance Payment is
paid. Associate thereafter shall be entitled to exercise his rights to continue
insurance pursuant to the Company's policies relating to insurance continuation
upon termination of employment. If Associate becomes reemployed with another
employer and is eligible to receive health or other welfare benefits from such
other employer, the benefits provided hereunder shall be secondary to those
provided under such other plan during the period of dual eligibility.
Associate's stock options as of the Termination Date shall continue to remain
outstanding (unless exercised by Associate) for 36 months following Associate's
Termination Date.

                                       6
<PAGE>

                  (d) OUTPLACEMENT SERVICES. The Company shall reimburse
Associate for outplacement services incurred by Associate at a cost not to
exceed $15,000. Associate's Severance Payment hereunder shall not be reduced by
amounts earned by Associate after the Termination Date.

                  (e) DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the event that Associate's
employment by the Company is terminated by reason of Associate's death or
permanent disability, i.e., the inability of the Associate to perform his job
duties on account of incapacity from physical or mental illness, the Company
shall have no obligation to pay any Severance Payment.

                  (f) NON-COMPETITION. In consideration for his entitlement to
receive the Severance Payment, Associate agrees that for a period of twenty four
months following the Termination Date, Associate will not engage, directly or
indirectly, as an individual or representative or employee of others, in the
business of designing, manufacturing or selling products in competition with the
Company or any of its subsidiaries in any geographic area where the Company or
such subsidiary is doing business.

         12. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall
be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. As this Agreement is
based upon Associate's unique abilities and personal confidence in Associate,
Associate shall have no right to assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder
without the written consent of the Company.

         13. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION. The provisions of this Agreement are
subject to compliance with any governmental regulations, and the Company may, in
its discretion, determine that the effect of such regulations may require
adjustment in the amount of incentive compensation which the Company shall pay
Associate under this Agreement.

         14. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall to
any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall
not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be
valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

         15. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance
with the laws of the state of Delaware.

         16. ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. The parties agree that any controversy or
claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any dispute arising out
of the interpretation of this Agreement, which the parties are unable to
resolve, shall be finally resolved and settled exclusively by binding
arbitration in Riverside, California by a single arbitrator acting under the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA")
then in effect. If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator from the panel
provided by the AAA, then each party shall choose its own independent
representative and such representatives shall choose the arbitrator within
thirty days of the date of the selection of the first independent
representative. The

                                       7
<PAGE>

parties hereby recognize and consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the
state of California as the sole jurisdiction for enforcement of the arbitration
award.

         Associate's legal expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, shall
be reimbursed to Associate if an award is rendered in favor of Associate or if
the arbitrator finds that Associate acted in good faith in demanding arbitration
of any such dispute.

         17. PRIOR CONTRACTS. Any prior contract or agreement between the
Company and Associate shall hereby be canceled and shall be of no further force
or effect.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Associate has executed this Agreement and the
Company has caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officer,
all as of the day and year first above written.

                  (a)      PAYMENT OF BENEFITS.  In the event that:

                           (i)      during the three (3) year period following a
                                    Change of Control (a) the Company initiates
                                    an Employment Termination for reasons which
                                    do not constitute Good Cause; or (b) the
                                    Associate initiates an Employment
                                    Termination for any reason after Associate
                                    suffers an Adverse Change in Employment
                                    Circumstances, or after the Company
                                    adversely changes the incentive compensation
                                    plan benefits payable or to be payable in
                                    the future to Associate; or

                           (ii)     during the one (1) year period following a
                                    Change of Control the Associate initiates an
                                    Employment Termination for any reason by
                                    notifying the Company in writing that such
                                    Employment Termination is pursuant to this
                                    provision;

then the Company shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of such
Employment Termination, pay the Earned Severance Benefit to which Associate is
entitled, up to the amount of the Maximum Severance Benefit. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Associate

                                       4
<PAGE>

shall be ineligible to receive the Earned Severance Benefit otherwise payable
hereunder if Associate Actively Participated in any transaction giving rise or
relating to any Unapproved Change of Control.

                  (b) GROSS-UP PAYMENT. If Associate becomes entitled to
payments in the nature of compensation, including without limitation the Earned
Severance Benefit, all salaries, bonuses, severance pay, fringe benefits and the
accelerated vesting of options or other equity-based compensation that
constitute a "parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any successor statute then in effect
(collectively, the "Aggregate Change of Control Payments"), then the Company
shall pay an additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") to Associate at the time
specified in the following paragraph. The Gross-Up Payment shall be equal to the
amount necessary so that the net amount of the Aggregate Change of Control
Payments retained by Associate, after subtracting the parachute excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, as amended, or any successor statute then
in effect (the "Excise Tax"), and after also subtracting all federal, state or
local income tax, FICA tax and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment, shall be
equal to the net amount of the Aggregate Change in Control Payments that
Associate would have retained if no Excise Tax has been imposed and no Gross-Up
Payment had been paid. The amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined in
good faith by independent accountants or tax counsel selected by the Company and
acceptable to Associate, who shall apply the following assumptions: (i)
Associate shall be treated as paying federal income taxes at the highest
marginal rate in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is made, and
(ii) Associate shall be treated as paying state and local income taxes at the
highest marginal rate(s) in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is
made in the locality of Associate's residence as of the Termination Date, net of
the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that could be obtained from
deducting those state and local taxes.

                  The Gross-Up Payment shall be made within twenty business days
after the effective date of Associate's termination or resignation, provided
that if the Gross-Up Payment cannot be determined within that time, the Company
shall pay Associate within that time an estimate, determined in good faith by
the Company, of the minimum amount of the Gross-Up Payment and shall pay the
remainder (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code) as soon as the amount can be determined but in no event later than the
60th day after the effective date of Associate's termination or resignation. If
the estimated payment is more than the amount later determined to have been due,
the excess (plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the
Code) shall be repaid by Associate within five business days after written
demand.

                  If the actual Excise Tax imposed is more than the amount that
was taken into account in determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the
Company shall make an additional gross-up payment in respect of such excess
(plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code) at the
time that the amount of the excess is finally determined."

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (c) TAX RETURN ASSISTANCE. The Company, at its expense, agrees
to supply Associate with advice from competent tax counsel with respect to
whether Associate should reflect and pay Excise Tax relating to the period or
periods in which Associate received payments or benefits under this Agreement
which may result in the imposition of the Excise Tax. Associate agrees to notify
the Company in a timely manner in the event of any audit by the IRS or any state
taxing authority in which the IRS or the state taxing authority determines that
such Excise Tax should be assessed against Associate and the Company agrees to
assist Associate in contesting any proposed assessment with respect to such
Excise Tax.

         11. SEVERANCE FOR TERMINATION NOT IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE OF
CONTROL.

                  (a) COMPANY OBLIGATION. If the provisions of Section 10 hereof
do not apply and Associate suffers an Employment Termination for reasons other
than Good Cause, or if Associate terminates his employment within 90 days after
Associate suffers an Adverse Change in Employment Circumstances, and in
consideration of Associate's compliance with his obligations under subsection
(f) below and Associate's execution of a general release in favor of the Company
and its affiliates, officers and directors, the Company shall pay Associate an
amount equal to ___% of the aggregate of Associate's salary, incentive
compensation and long-term incentive compensation which was payable for the
eight fiscal quarters prior to Associate's Termination Date and Associate shall
be entitled to the other benefits provided for in this Section 11.

                  (b) PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE PAYMENT. The Severance Payment shall
be paid in four equal installments, the first of which shall be paid within
thirty (30) days after the Termination Date. The other three installments will
be paid (together with accrued interest at the base rate of the Bank of America,
as adjusted when such rate is changed) six months, twelve months and twenty-four
months after the Termination Date, respectively. Associate agrees that in the
event that Associate breaches any provision of subsection (f) below or the
general release, his right to receive future installments of the Severance
Payment shall terminate as of the date of such breach.

                  (c) CONTINUATION OF BENEFITS. The Company, at its expense,
shall continue health, insurance and other welfare benefits and contributions to
the applicable retirement plan(s) for the benefit of Associate and his family at
the same level as would have occurred had there been no Employment Termination
for the period until the date the final installment of the Severance Payment is
paid. Associate thereafter shall be entitled to exercise his rights to continue
insurance pursuant to the Company's policies relating to insurance continuation
upon termination of employment. If Associate becomes reemployed with another
employer and is eligible to receive health or other welfare benefits from such
other employer, the benefits provided hereunder shall be secondary to those
provided under such other plan during the period of dual eligibility.
Associate's stock options as of the Termination Date shall continue to remain
outstanding (unless exercised by Associate) for 36 months following Associate's
Termination Date.

                                       6
<PAGE>

                  (d) OUTPLACEMENT SERVICES. The Company shall reimburse
Associate for outplacement services incurred by Associate at a cost not to
exceed $15,000. Associate's Severance Payment hereunder shall not be reduced by
amounts earned by Associate after the Termination Date.

                  (e) DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the event that Associate's
employment by the Company is terminated by reason of Associate's death or
permanent disability, i.e., the inability of the Associate to perform his job
duties on account of incapacity from physical or mental illness, the Company
shall have no obligation to pay any Severance Payment.

                  (f) NON-COMPETITION. In consideration for his entitlement to
receive the Severance Payment, Associate agrees that for a period of twenty four
months following the Termination Date, Associate will not engage, directly or
indirectly, as an individual or representative or employee of others, in the
business of designing, manufacturing or selling products in competition with the
Company or any of its subsidiaries in any geographic area where the Company or
such subsidiary is doing business.

         12. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall
be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. As this Agreement is
based upon Associate's unique abilities and personal confidence in Associate,
Associate shall have no right to assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder
without the written consent of the Company.

         13. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION. The provisions of this Agreement are
subject to compliance with any governmental regulations, and the Company may, in
its discretion, determine that the effect of such regulations may require
adjustment in the amount of incentive compensation which the Company shall pay
Associate under this Agreement.

         14. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall to
any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall
not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be
valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

         15. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance
with the laws of the state of Delaware.

         16. ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. The parties agree that any controversy or
claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any dispute arising out
of the interpretation of this Agreement, which the parties are unable to
resolve, shall be finally resolved and settled exclusively by binding
arbitration in Riverside, California by a single arbitrator acting under the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA")
then in effect. If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator from the panel
provided by the AAA, then each party shall choose its own independent
representative and such representatives shall choose the arbitrator within
thirty days of the date of the selection of the first independent
representative. The

                                       7
<PAGE>

parties hereby recognize and consent to the jurisdiction of the courts
of the state of California as the sole jurisdiction for enforcement of the
arbitration award.

         Associate's legal expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, shall
be reimbursed to Associate if an award is rendered in favor of Associate or if
the arbitrator finds that Associate acted in good faith in demanding arbitration
of any such dispute.

         17. PRIOR CONTRACTS. Any prior contract or agreement between the
Company and Associate shall hereby be canceled and shall be of no further force
or effect.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Associate has executed this Agreement and the
Company has caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly authorized officer,
all as of the day and year first above written.
