    NOW,
      THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises, the mutual promises,
      covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable
      consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
      the
      parties agree as follows:

     

    Employment
      Terms

     

    1.  Effective
      Date.    This
      Agreement is effective as of the closing of the transactions contemplated in
      that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Buck Holdings, L.P.,
      Buck
      Acquisition Corp., and Dollar General Corporation dated March 11, 2007 (the
      “Effective Date”).

     

    2.  Employment.    Subject
      to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to employ
      Employee as Interim Chief Executive Officer of Dollar General Corporation during
      the Initial Term and any Initial Term Extension and as President and Chief
      Operating Officer during the Transition Period and any Subsequent Employment
      Term.

     

    3.  Term.    The
      term
      of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue until
      December 31, 2007 (“Initial Term”). The
      Initial Term may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties hereto
      entered into before the expiration of the Initial Term (“Initial Term
      Extension”). In the event a new chief executive officer is hired by the Company
      during the Initial Term or an Initial Term Extension, as applicable, the Initial
      Term or the Initial Term Extension may be extended at the Company’s option for a
      period of three months following the date such new chief executive officer’s
      employment with the Company commences or, at the request of the Company, such
      longer period as Employee agrees in writing (“Transition Period”). The Company
      shall notify Employee in writing of its intent to initiate the Transition
      Period and the length of the Transition Period (which may be extended as the
      same may be mutually agreed by the parties hereto in writing) no later than
      five
      (5) business days before the date as of which the new chief executive officer’s
      employment with the Company commences. If there occurs a Transition Period,
      upon
      expiration thereof, any period of time during which Employee remains employed
      with the Company shall be deemed the “Subsequent

Employment
        Term” (the Initial Term together with any Initial Term Extension, the Transition
        Period and any Subsequent Employment Term, the “Term”). The Agreement shall
        continue through the Term, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Sections
        7, 8,
        9, 10 or 11 hereof.

    

     

    4.  Position,
      Duties and Administrative Support.

     

    a.  Position.
      During
      the Initial Term and any Initial Term Extension, Employee shall serve as Interim
      Chief Executive Officer and while so employed will also serve as a member of
      the
      Board of Directors of the Company during the Initial Term and any Initial Term
      Extension. Employee shall report to the Board of Directors and perform such
      duties and responsibilities as may be prescribed from time−to−time by the Board
      of Directors, which shall be consistent with the responsibilities of similarly
      situated executives of comparable companies in similar lines of business. During
      the Transition Period and any Subsequent Employment Term, Employee shall serve
      as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, and shall report to
      the
      Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and perform such duties and
      responsibilities as are consistent with the responsibilities of similarly
      situated executives of comparable companies in similar lines of
      business.

     

    b.  Full-Time
      Efforts.
      Employee shall perform and discharge faithfully and diligently such duties
      and
      responsibilities and shall devote Employee’s full-time efforts to the business
      and affairs of Company. Employee agrees to promote the best interests of the
      Company and to take no action that is likely to damage the public image or
      reputation of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates.

     

    c.  Administrative
      Support.
      Employee shall be provided with office space and administrative
      support.

     

    d.  No
      Interference With Duties.
      Employee shall not devote time to other activities which would inhibit or
      otherwise interfere with the proper performance of Employee’s duties and shall
      not be directly or indirectly concerned or interested in any other business
      occupation, activity or interest other than by reason of holding a
      non-controlling interest as a shareholder, securities holder or debenture holder
      in a corporation quoted on a nationally recognized exchange (subject to any
      limitations in the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics). Employee may
      not serve as a member of a board of directors of a for-profit company, other
      than the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or Alta Resources,
      without the express approval of the Board of Directors; provided, however,
      that
      it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
Employee
        to manage personal business interests and investments, so long as such
        activities do not interfere with the performance of Employee’s responsibilities
        under this Agreement. 

    

     

    e.  Work
      Standard.
      Employee agrees to comply with all terms and conditions set forth in this
      Agreement, as well as all applicable Company work policies, procedures and
      rules. Employee also agrees to comply with all federal, state and local
      statutes, regulations and public ordinances governing Employee’s performance
      hereunder.

     

    5.  Change
      in Position to CEO.

     

    a.  In
      the
      event that Employee is selected to be the new Chief Executive Officer of the
      Company, such selection shall not be treated as a termination of this Agreement
      without Good Reason and Employee will continue to be entitled to earn the FY
      2007 Bonus if the selection occurs in FY 2007 and the FY 2008 Bonus if the
      selection occurs in FY 2008; provided, however, that the FY 2008 Bonus shall
      be
      prorated if Employee terminates employment without Good Reason before the end
      of
      FY 2008. In addition, the Company and Employee will negotiate in good faith
      to
      enter into new employment arrangements in respect of Employee’s new position,
      which will in any event include severance protections that are no less favorable
      than the severance protections described in this Agreement.

     

    6.  Compensation.

     

    a.  Base
      Salary.
      Subject
      to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, so long as Employee
      is
      employed hereunder, the Company shall pay Employee, and Employee shall accept,
      an annual base salary (“Base Salary”) of no less than Seven Hundred Twenty-One
      Thousand Dollars ($721,000), which is the base salary being paid to Employee
      immediately before the consummation of the transactions contemplated in that
      certain Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Buck Holdings, L.P., Buck
      Acquisition Corp., and Dollar General Corporation dated March 11, 2007
      (“Transaction”). The Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with Company’s
      normal payroll practices and shall be increased from time to time in the
      ordinary course of business at the sole discretion of the Company.

     

    b.  Incentive
      Bonus.
      

     

    (i)  FY
      2007 Bonus.
      So long
      as Employee remains employed through the relevant date required under the Bonus
      Plan to receive payment of a bonus thereunder, Employee will be eligible to
      earn
      an annual cash bonus in respect of the Company’s fiscal year 2007 (“FY 2007”)
      pursuant to the Company bonus plan in which Employee 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
participated
        along with other officers of the Company immediately before the Effective
        Date,
        as the same may be amended from time to time, (the “Bonus Plan”), with an annual
        target bonus amount of 140% of his Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) and an
        annual maximum bonus amount of 280% of his Base Salary (the “Maximum Bonus”),
        payable in each case in accordance with the terms of the Bonus Plan and based
        on
        the achievement of performance criteria as described on Appendix
        A
        attached
        hereto. For clarification, upon satisfaction of the performance criteria
        required for Employee to be paid the target bonus under the Bonus Plan for
        FY
        2007, Employee will be paid the Target Bonus and upon satisfaction of the
        performance criteria required for Employee to be paid the maximum bonus under
        the Bonus Plan for FY 2007, Employee will be paid the Maximum Bonus. The
        threshold bonus Employee could earn under the Bonus Plan for FY 2007 will
        remain
        unchanged from the Bonus Plan as in effect immediately before the Effective
        Date
        at 35% of Base Salary (the “Threshold Bonus”) (the Threshold Bonus, the Target
        Bonus or the Maximum Bonus that is payable under the Bonus Plan in respect
        of FY
        2007, the “FY 2007 Bonus”). 

    

     

    (ii)  FY
      2008 Bonus.
      If the
      Term extends beyond the Initial Term but not beyond the end of fiscal
      year 2008 (“FY 2008”),
      whether
      or not
      Employee
      remains employed through the relevant date required under the Bonus Plan to
      receive payment of a bonus thereunder, Employee will be eligible to earn a
      cash
      bonus in respect of FY 2008 under the Bonus Plan as in effect for FY 2008 (“FY
      2008 Bonus”) equal to (x), (y) or (z), as described below, depending on whether
      the applicable performance criteria is satisfied, pro rated for the number
      of
      months that the Term extends into FY 2008 relative to 12 months, where (x)
      equals the Threshold Bonus, (y) equals the Target Bonus and (z) equals the
      Maximum Bonus.

     

    (iii)  Post
      FY 2008.
      If the
      Term extends beyond FY 2008, Employee shall be eligible for incentive
      compensation for the remainder of the Term of this Agreement as determined
      under
      the Bonus Plan for officers of the Company, based on criteria established by
      the
      Board of Directors, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the bonus
      program for officers of the Company.

     

    c.  Stock
      Based Compensation.
      During
      the Term, Employee shall be eligible for award grants from time to time
      consistent with the award grants made to similarly-situated officers of the
      Company during such time as governed by the terms of the Company’s equity

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
incentive
        plan, as may be amended, or any successor plan thereof (the “Stock Plan”), as
        determined in the sole discretion of the Company.

    

     

    d.  Vacation.
      During
      the Term, Employee shall be entitled to four weeks paid vacation. Vacation
      time
      is granted on the anniversary of Employee’s employment with the Company, which,
      for avoidance of doubt, is December 4, (“Start Date”) each year. Any
      available but unused vacation as of the annual anniversary of the Start
      Date
      or at
      Employee’s termination date shall be forfeited.

     

    e.  Business
      Expenses.
      During
      the Term, Employee shall be reimbursed for all reasonable business expenses
      incurred in carrying out the work hereunder. Employee shall adhere to the
      Company’s expense reimbursement policies and procedures.

     

    f.  Perquisites.
      During
      the Term, Employee shall be entitled to receive such other executive
      perquisites, fringe and other benefits as are provided to similarly-situated
      officers and their families under any of the Company’s plans and/or programs in
      effect from time to time.

     

    7.  Benefits.    During
      the Term, Employee (and, where applicable, Employee’s eligible dependents) shall
      be eligible to participate in those various Company welfare benefit plans,
      practices and policies in place during the Term, if any, (including, without
      limitation, medical, prescription, dental, vision, disability, employee life,
      accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and programs, if any)
      to
      the extent and in accordance with the terms of those plans. In addition,
      Employee shall be eligible to participate, pursuant to their terms, in any
      other
      benefit plans offered by the Company to similarly-situated officers or other
      employees during the Term (excluding plans applicable solely to certain officers
      of the Company in accordance with the express terms of such plans), including,
      without limitation, the 401(k) Retirement and Savings Plan and CDP/SERP Plan.
      Collectively the plans and arrangements described in this Section 6 and as
      they
      may be amended or modified in accordance with their terms are hereinafter
      referred to as the “Benefits Plans.” Notwithstanding the above, Employee
      understands and acknowledges that Employee is not eligible for benefits under
      the Dollar General Corporation Severance Plan and that the only severance
      benefits Employee is entitled to are set forth in this Agreement. During the
      Initial Term, any Initial Term Extension and the Transition Period, the Company
      will continue to lease and pay all rent and other charges being paid by the
      Company as of the Effective Date on the apartment at 4040 Woodlawn Drive Unit
      23, Nashville, Tennessee 37205 or a substantially similar apartment in a
      substantially similar location.

     

    8.  Termination
      for Cause.    This
      Agreement may be terminated at any time by either party, with or without cause.
      If this Agreement is terminated by Company for “Cause” (Termination for Cause)

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
as
        that
        term is defined below, it will be without any liability owing to Employee
        or
        Employee’s dependents and beneficiaries under this Agreement, except for those
        benefits owed under any other plan or agreement covering Employee which shall
        be
        governed by the terms of such plan or agreement. Any one of the following
        conditions or Employee conduct shall constitute “Cause”:

    

     

    a.  Any
      act
      involving fraud or dishonesty;

     

    b.  Any
      material breach of any securities or other law or regulation or any Company
      policy governing trading or dealing with stocks, securities, investments and
      the
      like or with inappropriate disclosure or “tipping” relating to any stock,
      security or investment;

     

    c.  Other
      than as required by law, the carrying out of any activity or the making of
      any
      public statement which prejudices or reduces the good name and standing of
      Company or any of its affiliates or would bring any one of these into public
      contempt or ridicule;

     

    d.  Attendance
      at work in a state of intoxication or being found with any drug or substance
      possession of which would amount to a criminal offense;

     

    e.  Assault
      or other act of violence; or

     

    f.  Conviction
      of or plea of guilty or nolo
      contendre
      to any
      felony whatsoever or any misdemeanor that would preclude employment under the
      Company’s hiring policy.

     

    A
      termination for Cause shall be effective when the Company has given Employee
      written notice of its intention to terminate for Cause, describing those acts
      or
      omissions that are believed to constitute Cause, and has given Employee an
      opportunity to respond.

     

    9.  Termination
      upon Death.    Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall terminate immediately
      upon
      Employee’s death. Employee’s estate shall be entitled to the Base Salary, if
      any, accrued but unpaid as of his date of death, FY 2007 Bonus and FY 2008
      Bonus
      (to the extent not yet paid) and any other bonus, accrued in respect of any
      previously completed fiscal year of the Company, but unpaid as of his date
      of
      death, but the Company shall have no further liability to Employee or Employee’s
      dependents and beneficiaries under this Agreement, except for those benefits
      owed under any other plan or agreement covering Employee which shall be governed
      by the terms of such plan or agreement.

     

    10.  Disability.    If
      a
      Disability (as defined below) of Employee occurs during the Term, unless
      otherwise prohibited by law, the Company may notify Employee of the Company’s
      intention to terminate Employee’s employment. In that event, employment shall
      terminate effective on the 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        6

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
termination
        date provided in such notice of termination (the “Disability Effective Date”),
        and this Agreement shall terminate. Employee shall be entitled to the Base
        Salary, if any, accrued but unpaid as of the date his employment is terminated,
        FY 2007 Bonus and FY 2008 Bonus (to the extent not yet paid) and any other
        bonus, accrued in respect of any previously completed fiscal year of the
        Company, but unpaid as of the date his employment is terminated, but the
        Company
        shall have no further liability to Employee, Employee’s dependents and
        beneficiaries under this Agreement, except for those benefits owed under
        any
        other plan or agreement covering Employee which shall be governed by the
        terms
        of such plan or agreement. In this Agreement, “Disability”
means:

    

     

    a.  A
      long-term disability, as defined in the Company’s applicable long-term
      disability plan as then in effect, if any; or

     

    b.  Employee’s
      inability to perform the duties under this Agreement in accordance with the
      Company’s expectations because of a medically determinable physical or mental
      impairment that (i) can reasonably be expected to result in death or (ii) has
      lasted or can reasonably be expected to last longer than ninety (90) consecutive
      days. Under this provision 9(b), unless otherwise required by law, the existence
      of a Disability shall be determined by the Company, only upon receipt of a
      written medical opinion from a qualified physician selected by or acceptable
      to
      the Company. In this circumstance, to the extent permitted by law, Employee
      shall, if reasonably requested by the Company, submit to a physical examination
      by that qualified physician. Nothing in this subsection (b) is intended to
      nor
      shall it be deemed to broaden or modify the definition of “disability” in the
      Company’s long-term disability plan. 

     

    11.  Employee’s
      Termination of Employment.

     

    a.  Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, Employee may terminate employment and this
      Agreement at any time, for no reason, with thirty (30) days written notice
      to
      Company. Upon such termination, Employee shall be entitled to any accrued but
      unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination and such other vested
      benefits under any other plan or agreement covering Employee which shall be
      governed by the terms of such plan or agreement. Employee shall not be entitled
      to those payments and benefits listed in Section 12 below, unless Employee
      terminates employment for Good Reason, as defined below.

     

    b.  Good
      Reason
      shall
      mean any of the following actions taken by the Company:

     

    (i)  A
      reduction by the Company in Employee’s Base Salary or target bonus level under
      the Bonus Plan; provided,
      however,
      that
      any such reduction in the target 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        7

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
bonus
        level under the Bonus Plan for any given period that occurs following the
        end of
        the Transition Period to 70% of Base Salary or higher will not constitute
        Good
        Reason hereunder;

    

     

    (ii)  The
      Company shall fail to continue in effect any significant Company-sponsored
      compensation plan or benefit (without replacing it with a similar plan or with
      a
      compensation equivalent), unless such action is in connection with
      across-the-board plan changes or terminations similarly affecting at least
      ninety-five percent (95%) of all executive employees of the
      Company;

     

    (iii)  The
      Company’s principal executive offices shall be moved to a location outside the
      middle-Tennessee area, or Employee is required to be based anywhere other than
      the Company’s principal executive offices;

     

    (iv)  Without
      Employee’s written consent, the assignment to Employee by the Company of duties
      inconsistent with, or the significant reduction of the title, powers and
      functions associated with, Employee’s position, titles or offices as described
      in Section 3 above, unless such action is the result of a restructuring or
      realignment of duties and responsibilities by the Company, for business reasons,
      that leaves Employee at the same compensation and officer level (i.e., Vice
      President, Senior Vice President, or Executive Vice President, etc.) and with
      a
      similar level of responsibility, or unless such action is the result of
      Employee’s failure to meet pre-established and objective performance criteria;
provided,
      however,
      that
      such reduction in Employee’s title, duties or responsibilities will not
      constitute Good Reason hereunder if such change is the result of a change in
      the
      position of such Executive from Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company
      to President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company;

     

    (v)  Any
      material breach by the Company of this Agreement; or

     

    (vi)  The
      failure of any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
      consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or
      assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement
      in
      the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
      perform it if no such succession had taken place.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Good
      Reason shall not include Employee’s death, Disability or Termination for Cause
      or any isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure by the Company that
      is
      not in bad faith and is cured within ten (10) business days after the Employee
      gives the Company notice of such event. 

     

    12.  Termination
      without Cause or by Employee for Good Reason. 

     

    a.  The
      continuation of Base Salary and other payments and benefits described in section
      11(b) below shall be triggered only
      upon one
      or more of the following circumstances:

     

    (i)  The
      Company terminates Employee (as it may do at any time) without Cause; it being
      understood that termination by death or Disability does not constitute
      termination without Cause;

     

    (ii)  Employee
      terminates for Good Reason;

     

    (iii)  The
      Company fails to offer to renew, extend or replace this Employment Agreement
      (other than the provisions in section 6.b.(i) or (ii) of this Agreement with
      respect to bonus arrangements for fiscal years after FY 2008) before, at, or
      within sixty (60) days after, the end of the Transition Period and Employee
      resigns from employment with the Company within sixty (60) days after such
      failure, unless
      such
      failure is accompanied by a mutually agreeable severance arrangement between
      the
      Company and Employee.

     

    b.  In
      the
      event of one of the triggers referenced in subsections 12(a)(i) through (iii)
      above, then, upon the execution and effective date of the Release (which shall
      be deemed to occur on the eighth day following such execution without
      revocation) attached hereto and made a part hereof, and in lieu of and not
      in
      addition to the payments referenced in Section 13 below, Employee shall be
      entitled to the following:

     

    (i)  If
      such
      triggering event occurs prior to the payment of the FY 2007 bonus, a lump sum
      payment equal to the FY 2007 Bonus, determined as if Employee had remained
      employed through the date necessary to receive payment of the FY 2007 Bonus;
      and
      if the Term extends into FY 2008 and such triggering event occurs prior to
      the
      payment of the FY 2008 Bonus, a lump sum payment equal to the FY 2008 Bonus
      that
      would have been paid to Employee if Employee had remained employed through
      the
      date necessary to receive payment of the FY 2008 Bonus, but prorated based
      on
      the number of months during FY 2008 (relative to 12 months) during which
      Employee was employed by the Company;

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        9

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (ii)  A
      lump
      sum payment equal to two times Employee’s Base Salary in effect immediately
      prior to the Effective Date, plus
      two
      times the amount of Employee’s annual target bonus amount Employee was eligible
      to earn under the Bonus Plan as in effect immediately prior to the Effective
      Date;

     

    (iii)  A
      lump
      sum payment in an amount equal to two times the annual contribution made by
      the
      Company for Employee’s participation in the Company’s medical, dental and vision
      benefits program. 

     

    (iv)  Outplacement
      services, provided by the Company, for one year or until other employment is
      secured, whichever comes first.

     

    Unless
      otherwise permitted by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
      amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), with regard to any payment or benefit
      under this Section 12 which is nonqualified deferred compensation covered by
      Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, no such payment or benefit shall
      be
      provided to Employee pursuant to this Section if the Release attached hereto
      is
      not provided to the Company, without revocation thereof, no later than
      forty-five (45) days after Employee’s termination date; and no payment or
      benefit hereunder shall be provided to Employee prior to the Company’s receipt
      of the Release and the expiration of the period of revocation provided in the
      Release.

     

    c.  In
      the
      event that there is a material breach by Employee of any continuing obligations
      under this Agreement or the Release after termination of employment, any unpaid
      amounts under this Section 12 shall be forfeited. Any payments or reimbursements
      under this Section 12 shall not be deemed the continuation of Employee’s
      employment for any purpose. Except as specifically enumerated in the Release,
      the Company’s payment obligations under this Section 12 will not negate or
      reduce (i) any amounts otherwise due but not yet paid to Employee by the
      Company, or (ii) any other amounts payable to Employee outside this Agreement,
      or (iii) those benefits owed under any other plan or agreement covering Employee
      which shall be governed by the terms of such plan or agreement. 

     

    d.  Anything
      in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below,
      in the event it shall be determined as provided below that any payment or
      distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of Employee (whether paid
      or
      payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
      or otherwise (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
      4999 of the Internal Revenue Code or any interest or penalties are incurred
      by
      Employee with respect to such excise tax (collectively 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
referred
        to as the “Excise Tax”), then Employee shall be entitled to receive an
        additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after Employee
        pays all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect
        to such
        taxes), including, without limitation, any Excise, income or other tax (and
        any
        interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto), Employee retains an
        amount
        of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments.
        

    

     

    (i)  All
      determinations required to be made under this Section 12.c., including whether
      and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment
      and the assumptions to be used in arriving at such determination, shall be
      made
      by the tax department of an independent public accounting firm (the “Accounting
      Firm”) which shall be engaged by the Company prior to the time of the first
      Payment to Employee. The Accounting Firm selected shall not be serving as
      accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change
      in Control. The Accounting Firm shall prepare and provide detailed supporting
      calculations both to the Company and Employee within fifteen (15) business
      days
      of the later of (i) the Accounting Firm’s engagement to make the required
      calculations or (ii) the date the Accounting Firm obtains all information
      needed to make the required calculation. Any determination by the Accounting
      Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Employee. All fees and expenses
      of
      the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.

     

    (ii)  Any
      Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 12.c., shall be paid
      by
      the Company to Employee within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting
      Firm’s determination if the Payment is then required to satisfy an assessment or
      other current demand for payment made of Employee by federal or state taxing
      authorities. Gross-Up Payments due at a later date shall be paid to Employee
      no
      later than fourteen (14) days prior to the date that Employee’s federal or state
      payment is due. If required by law, the Company shall treat all or any portion
      of the Gross-Up Payment as being subject to income tax withholding for federal
      or state tax purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Gross-Up Payments
      shall in any event be made no later than the calendar year following the
      calendar year in which Employee remits the Excise Tax. Amounts determined by
      the
      Company to be subject to federal or state tax withholding will not be paid
      directly to Employee but shall be timely paid to the respective taxing
      authority. 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    (iii)  As
      a
      result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Internal
      Revenue Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
      hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made
      by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the
      calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that Employee hereafter
      is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall
      determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such
      Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company (or any successor or assign)
      to or for the benefit of Employee and in no event later than the end of the
      calendar year next following the taxable year in which Employee remits the
      Excise Tax. Conversely, if it is later determined that the actual required
      Gross-Up Payment was less than the amount paid to Employee, Employee shall
      refund the excess portion to the Company but only to the extent that Employee
      has not yet paid the excess amount to the taxing authorities or is able to
      obtain a refund from the respective taxing authorities of amounts previously
      paid. The Company may pursue at its own expense the refund on behalf of
      Employee, and, if requested by the Company, Employee shall reasonably cooperate
      in such refund effort.

     

    13.  Publicity;
      No Disparaging Statement.    Except
      as
      otherwise provided in Section 14 hereof, Employee and the Company covenant
      and
      agree that they shall not engage in any communi-cations to persons outside
      the
      Company which shall disparage one another or interfere with their existing
      or
      prospective business relationships.

     

    14.  Confidentiality
      and Legal Process.    Employee
      agrees to keep the proprietary terms, of this Agreement confidential and to
      refrain from disclosing any information concerning this Agreement to any one
      other than Employee’s immediate family and personal agents or advisors.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement is intended to prohibit
      Employee or the Company from performing any duty or obligation that shall arise
      as a matter of law. Specifically, Employee and the Company shall continue to
      be
      under a duty to truthfully respond to any legal and valid subpoena or other
      legal process. This Agreement is not intended in any way to proscribe Employee’s
      or the Company’s right and ability to provide information to any federal, state
      or local agency in response or adherence to the lawful exercise of such agency’s
      authority.

    16.  Nondisclosure:
      Ownership of Proprietary Property.

     

    a.  In
      recognition of the Company’s need to protect its legitimate business interests,
      Employee hereby covenants and agrees that, for the Term and thereafter (as
      described below), Employee shall regard and treat Trade Secrets and Confidential
      Information as strictly confidential and wholly-owned by the Company and shall
      not, for any reason, in any fashion, either directly or indirectly, use, sell,

      Trade
      Secrets and Confidential Information and shall immediately notify the Company
      of
      any unauthorized disclosure or use of any Trade Secrets or Confidential

      to the extent reasonably requested, in the protection or procurement of any
      intellectual property protection or other rights in any of the Trade Secrets

        14

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    c.  All
      Work
      Product shall be owned exclusively by the Company. To the greatest extent
      possible, any Work Product shall be deemed to be “work made for hire” (as
      defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. § 101 et seq., as amended), and
      Employee hereby unconditionally and irrevocably transfers and assigns to the
      Company all right, title and interest Employee currently has or may have by
      operation of law or otherwise in or to any Work Product, including, without
      limitation, all patents, copyrights, trademarks (and the goodwill associated
      therewith), trade secrets, service marks (and the goodwill associated therewith)
      and other intellectual property rights. Employee agrees to execute and deliver
      to the Company any transfers, assignments, documents or other instruments which
      the Company may deem necessary or appropriate, from time to time, to protect
      the
      rights granted herein or to vest complete title and ownership of any and all
      Work Product, and all associated intellectual property and other rights therein,
      exclusively in the Company.

     

    17.  Non-Interference
      with Employees.    Through
      employment and thereafter through the Restricted Period, Employee will not,
      either directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other person
      or
      Entity: actively recruit, solicit, attempt to solicit, induce or attempt to
      induce any person who is an exempt employee of the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries or affiliates to leave or cease such employment for any reason
      whatsoever; 

     

    18.  Non-Interference
      with Business Relationships.

     

    a.  Employee
      acknowledges that, in the course of employment, Employee will learn about
      Company’s business, services, materials, programs and products and the manner in
      which they are developed, marketed, serviced and provided. Employee knows and
      acknowledges that the Company has invested considerable time and money in
      developing its product sales and real estate development programs and
      relationships, vendor and other service provider relationships and agreements,
      store layouts and fixtures, and marketing techniques and that those things
      are
      unique and original. Employee further acknowledges that the Company has a strong
      business reason to keep secret information relating to Company’s business
      concepts, ideas, programs, plans and processes, so as not to aid Company’s
      competitors. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the protection
      outlined in (b) below is necessary and reasonable.

     

    b.  During
      the Restricted Period, Employee will not, on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf
      of any other person or Entity, solicit, contact, call upon, or communicate
      with
      any person or entity or any representative of any person or entity who has
      a
      business relationship with Company and with whom Employee had contact while
      employed, if such contact or 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        15

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
communication
        would likely interfere with Company’s business relationships or result in an
        unfair competitive advantage over Company.

    

     

    19.  Agreement
      Not to Work in Competitive Position.    Employee
      covenants and agrees not to accept, obtain or work in a Competitive Position
      within the Territory for the Restricted Period.

     

    20.  Acknowledgements
      Regarding Sections 15 - 19. 

     

    a.  Employee
      and Company expressly covenant and agree that the scope, territorial, time
      and
      other restrictions contained in Sections 15 through 19 of this Agreement
      constitute the most reasonable and equitable restrictions possible to protect
      the business interests of the Company given: (i) the business of the Company;
      (ii) the competitive nature of the Company’s industry; and (iii) that Employee’s
      skills are such that Employee could easily find alternative, commensurate
      employment or consulting work in Employee’s field which would not violate any of
      the provisions of this Agreement.

     

    b.  Employee
      acknowledges that the compensation and benefits described in Sections 6 and
      12
      are also in consideration of his/her covenants and agreements contained in
      Sections 15 through 19 hereof.

     

    c.  Employee
      acknowledges and agrees that a breach by Employee of the obligations set forth
      in Sections 15 through 19 will likely cause Company irreparable injury and
      that,
      in such event, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition
      to
      such other and further relief as may be proper.

     

    d.  The
      parties agree that if, at any time, a court of competent jurisdiction determines
      that any of the provisions of Section 15 through 19 are unreasonable under
      Tennessee law as to time or area or both, the Company shall be entitled to
      enforce this Agreement for such period of time or within such area as may be
      determined reasonable by such court.

    n.  Nonqualified
      Deferred Compensation Omnibus Provision.
      It is
      intended that any payment or benefit which is provided pursuant to or in
      connection with this Agreement which is considered to be nonqualified deferred
      compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
Revenue
        Code shall be paid and provided in a manner, and at such time and in such
        form,
        as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Internal
        Revenue Code to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for
        non-compliance. In connection with effecting such compliance with Section
        409A
        of the Internal Revenue Code, the following shall apply: 

    

     

    (i)  Notwithstanding
      any other provision of this Agreement, the Company is authorized to amend this
      Agreement, to void or amend any election made by Employee under this Agreement
      and/or to delay the payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits
      in
      such manner as may be determined by it to be necessary or appropriate to comply,
      or to evidence or further evidence required compliance, with Section 409A of
      the
      Internal Revenue Code (including any transition or grandfather rules
      thereunder). 

     

    (ii)  Neither
      Employee nor the Company shall take any action to accelerate or delay the
      payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in any manner which
      would
      not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (including
      any transition or grandfather rules thereunder). Notwithstanding the
      foregoing:

     

    (A)  Payment
      may be delayed for a reasonable period in the event the payment is not
      administratively practical due to events beyond the recipient’s control such as
      where the recipient is not competent to receive the benefit payment, there
      is a
      dispute as to amount due or the proper recipient of such benefit payment,
      additional time is needed to calculate the amount payable, or the payment would
      jeopardize the solvency of the Company.

     

    (B)  Payments
      shall be delayed in the following circumstances: (1) where the Company
      reasonably anticipates that the payment will violate the terms of a loan
      agreement to which the Company is a party and that the violation would cause
      material harm to the Company; or (2) where the Company reasonably
      anticipates that the payment will violate Federal securities laws or other
      applicable laws; provided that any payment delayed by operation of this clause
      (B) will be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably
      anticipates that the payment will not be limited or cause the violations
      described.

     

    (iii)  If
      Employee is a specified employee of a publicly traded corporation
      as
      required by Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the
      Internal Revenue Code,
      any
      payment or provision of benefits in connection with a separation from service
      payment event (as 

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        19

        
          

        

      

      
        
        
determined
        for purposes of Section
        409A of the
        Internal Revenue Code) shall not be made until six months after Employee’s
        separation from service (the
        “409A
        Deferral Period”). In the event such payments are otherwise due to be made in
        installments or periodically during the 409A Deferral Period, the payments
        which
        would otherwise have been made in the 409A Deferral Period shall be accumulated
        and paid in a lump sum as soon as the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the
        balance
        of the payments shall be made as otherwise scheduled. In the event benefits
        are
        required to be deferred, any such benefit may be provided during the 409A
        Deferral Period at Employee’s expense, with Employee having a right to
        reimbursement from the Company once the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the
        balance of the benefits shall be provided as otherwise
        scheduled.

    

     

    (iv)  If
      a
      Change in Control occurs but the Change in Control does not constitute a change
      in ownership of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of
      the
      assets of the Company as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Internal
      Revenue Code, then payment of any amount or provision of any benefit under
      this
      Agreement which is considered to be nonqualified deferred compensation subject
      to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deferred until another
      permissible payment event contained in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue
      Code
      occurs (e.g., death, disability, separation from service from the Company and
      its affiliated companies as defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal
      Revenue Code), including any deferral of payment or provision of benefits for
      the 409A
      Deferral Period
      as
      provided above.

      Assignment of Claim.    Employee
      represents that Employee has not assigned or transferred, or purported to assign

      business relationships.

     

    6.  No
      Admission Of Liability.    This
      Release shall not in any way be construed as an admission by the Company or
      Employee of any improper actions or liability whatsoever as to one another,
      and
      each specifically disclaims any liability to or improper actions against the
      other or any other person.

      Execution.    Employee
      warrants, represents and agrees that Employee has been encouraged in writing

      Licensee shall make all payments in immediately available funds to Licensor’s
      order on or before the date of shipment of any Trillennium Product, Trillennium
      System or any component thereof. Licensor reserves the right, in its sole
      discretion, to delay shipping additional Trillennium Products or Trillennium
      Systems or any component thereof in the event the aggregate of all past due

      Resale/License
      of Trillennium Products.
      Licensee may resell, lease or license the use of the Trillennium Products,
      the
      Trillennium Systems or any components thereof which it shall purchase or obtain
      by license pursuant to this Agreement, either separately or as a component
      of a
      System, at such prices as Licensee in its sole discretion shall from time to
      time determine, provided that any Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems
      or
      any components thereof which Licensee obtains by license from Licensor may
      only
      be distributed by sub-license in a form and content approved by Licensor in
      writing.

    

    9.5.
      Acceptance
      of Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems or any components
      thereof.
      In the
      event of any shortage, damage or discrepancy in or to a shipment of Trillennium
      Products, Trillennium Systems or any components thereof, Licensee shall promptly
      report the same to Licensor and furnish such written evidence or other
      documentation as Licensor may deem appropriate. Licensor shall not be liable
      for
      any such shortage, damage or discrepancy unless Licensor has received notice
      and
      substantiating evidence thereof from Licensee within forty-five (45) days after
      delivery. If the substantiating evidence delivered by Licensee shall demonstrate
      to Licensor’s satisfaction that Licensor is responsible for such shortage,
      damage or discrepancy, Licensor shall promptly deliver additional or substitute
      Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems or any components thereof to Licensee
      in accordance with the delivery procedures set forth herein, but in no event
      shall Licensor be liable for any additional costs, expenses or damages incurred
      by Licensee directly or indirectly as a result of such shortage, damage or
      discrepancy in or to a shipment.

    

    9.6.
      Licensor’s
      Failure to Supply Trillennium Products.
      In the
      event that Licensee submits a Purchase Order and satisfies all of the payment
      and export informational requirements imposed upon Licensee pursuant to this
      Agreement with respect thereto, but Licensor fails to accept the Purchase Order
      or ship the ordered Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems or any components
      thereof for any reason other than those set forth in this Agreement which would
      permit Licensor to reject the Purchase Order or fail to fulfill the order,
      then
      solely for the purpose of determining whether Licensee shall have complied
      with
      the purchase obligations imposed upon it pursuant to Section 7.1 and/or 7.2
      hereof, the Trillennium Products identified in such Purchase Order shall be
      deemed to have been purchased and paid for.

      of Loss.
      Risk of
      loss for Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems or any components thereof

      Systems or shall hereafter be developed and/or incorporated into use with the
      Trillennium Products and/or Trillennium Systems, including but not limited

      Future
      Software Engineering Services.
      In the
      event that Licensee asks Licensor to create additional software during the
      Term
      or the Renewal Term, if applicable, Licensor shall do so, and Licensee shall
      pay
      therefore, pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement to be entered into
      by
      the Parties with respect thereto. Any such additional software created by
      Licensor shall be deemed to be Trillennium Product Software for all purposes
      of
      this Agreement. Licensee agrees it shall not directly or indirectly participate
      in the creation of any software, design characteristics and/or source code
      directly or indirectly competing with Trillennium’s Product Software. Licensor
      further agrees that any software enhancements, improvements, upgrades or
      modifications as well as any new software developed and made available for
      use
      in Trillennium Systems shall promptly be made available to Licensee on a best
      market price or best market rate basis.

    

    10.3.
      Proprietary
      Rights in Product Software.
      Licensee shall not without the prior written consent of Licensor disclose (a)
      any design characteristics or implementation detail of the Product Software
      or
      (b) any of the source code or the Trillennium Product Software. Licensee shall
      not in any manner, directly or indirectly, participate in the distribution,
      sale, transfer, or use of any Trillennium Product Software or unlicensed
      derivations thereof, with or without incorporation into or with any Trillennium
      Product or System, without Licensor’s express written consent, which consent
      Licensor shall not be required to grant and if Licensor decides, in its sole
      discretion, to grant the same, it may do so on such terms and conditions as
      it
      shall determine in the exercise of its sole discretion.

    

    10.4.
      Cooperative
      End User Software Support.
      Licensor and Licensee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reach an
      agreement with respect to providing maintenance and other customer support
      service to End Users of Licensee within the Territories. There shall be a
      separate service and support agreement that describes the service, recalibration
      and support obligations of each Party.

    

    10.5.
      Public
      Information. Licensee
      agrees that the existence of a copyright notice or patent application shall
      not
      cause or be construed as causing any Trillennium Product Software to be deemed
      published or in the public domain or as evidencing Licensor’s intent to waive
      any rights under law with respect to the protection of Trillennium Product
      Software.

    

    10.6.
      Legal
      Action.

      Party to enforce or protect the requesting Party’s rights in and with respect to
      any patent, trademark, copyright or other intellectual property encompassing

      LICENSOR’S
      PRODUCT AND SOFTWARE WARRANTIES; LICENSOR’S
      REPRESENTATIONS.

    

    11.1.
      Trillennium
      Products.
      Licensor will repair or replace any parts or material contained in any
      Trillennium Product or Trillennium System or any component thereof found
      defective as the result of flaws in design or manufacture when reported in
      writing within one (1) year from the date of sale of the subject Trillennium
      Product, Trillennium System or any component thereof to Licensee. Once a return
      authorization is approved and assigned, Trillennium Products, Trillennium
      Systems or any component thereof to be repaired under this warranty are to
      be
      returned to Licensor with shipping charges to be prepaid by the End User, who
      shall assume all risk and cost of shipping to and from Licensor’s designated
      point of delivery. In the event that Licensor determines, in its sole judgment
      and discretion, for purpose of repair, that an on-site inspection is required,
      this warranty does not cover transportation of factory-trained service personnel
      to and from the installation site or expenses while there. The foregoing
      warranty shall be void if the Trillennium Product, Trillennium System or any
      component thereof in question has been disassembled, tampered with, altered
      or
      otherwise damaged, without prior written consent from Licensor, or if considered
      by Licensor to have been abused or used in abnormal conditions. The foregoing
      warranty shall constitute the exclusive remedy available to Licensee and its
      End
      User and shall be considered a condition of sale and use. Licensor shall not
      be
      liable for any loss or damage, including loss of profit or consequential
      damages, resulting from or attributed to the use of any Trillennium Product,
      Trillennium System or any component thereof or resulting from a defect in design
      or manufacture of any Trillennium Product or Trillennium System or any component
      thereof.

    11.2.
      Product
      Software.
      Licensor warrants, for a period of ninety (90) days after delivery of a
      Trillennium System to an End User, and solely for the benefit of such End User,
      that the Product Software will perform in all material respects in accordance
      with the applicable documentation and specifications provided to Licensee by
      Licensor. Licensor shall make such warranty available to Licensee’s End Users,
      provided, however, that such warranty shall not apply to any software interface,
      modification, installation, integration or other software not developed and
      provided by Licensor. Licensor reserves the right to charge a fee based on
      time,
      materials and costs, for all services provided pursuant to any claim under
      this
      warranty that Licensor, in its sole discretion, subsequently determines was
      not
      caused by a defect in the Product Software.

      ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY,

      INFORMATIONAL CONTENT, OR SYSTEM INTEGRATION, OR ANY WARRANTIES ARISING UNDER
      ANY OTHER LEGAL REQUIREMENT. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTY IN SECTION 11.2,
      LICENSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT THE PRODUCT SOFTWARE WILL RUN PROPERLY ON ANY
      HARDWARE, THAT THE PRODUCT SOFTWARE WILL MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF LICENSEE
      OR
      AUTHORIZED END USERS, WILL OPERATE IN THE COMBINATIONS WHICH MAY BE SELECTED
      FOR
      USE BY LICENSEE OR AUTHORIZED END USERS, OR THAT THE SERVICES OR OPERATION
      OF
      THE PRODUCT SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE, OR THAT ALL ERRORS
      WILL BE CORRECTED. 

    

    11.4.
      Licensor’s
      Representations.

      INDEMNIFICATION

    

    12.1.
      Indemnification
      of Licensee.
      Licensor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensee and its officers,
      directors, employees, stockholders, agents and representatives (collectively,
      the “Licensee
      Indemnified Parties”)
      from
      and against any loss, liability, obligation, claim, diminution in value, damage,
      cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and
      costs of investigation in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding
      (each a “Loss”)
      suffered or incurred by, or asserted against, any Licensee Indemnified Party
      that is attributable to, is based upon, is caused by, results from, or in any
      way arises from any breach or failure to perform by Licensor of any of its
      obligations, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

    12.2.
      Indemnification
      of Licensor.
      Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensor and its officers,
      directors, employees, stockholders, agents and representatives (collectively,
      the “Licensor
      Indemnified Parties”
and
      together with the Licensee Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified
      Parties”)
      from
      and against any Loss suffered or incurred by, or asserted against, any Licensor
      Indemnified Party that is attributable to, is based upon, is caused by, results
      from, or in any way arises from:

    

    (a)
      any
      breach or failure to perform by Licensee of any of its obligations, covenants
      or
      agreements set forth in this Agreement;

    

    (b)
      any
      inaccuracy in or breach of any covenant, agreement, representation or warranty
      of Licensee contained in this Agreement, and any claim, action, suit or
      proceeding by any third party alleging facts that if proven would constitute
      an
      inaccuracy in or breach of any such covenant, agreement, representation or
      warranty of Licensee, provided the same is not the result of any fault of
      Licensor; or

    

    (c)
      any
      claim, action, suit or proceeding brought by any third party (including without
      limitation any governmental entity) in connection with Licensee’s production,
      distribution, marketing and/or use of any Trillennium System, provided the
      same
      is not the result of any fault of Licensor.

    

    12.3.
      Indemnification
      Claim Procedure.

     

    (a)
      Any
      Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Article 12 shall give
      prompt written notice to the persons against whom indemnification is sought
      (the
“Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim by a third party or the
      discovery of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base a claim
      under this Article 12. The delay or failure of any Indemnified Party to provide
      notice hereunder shall not in any way limit its indemnification rights hereunder
      except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that its ability
      to defend or resolve such claim is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.
      Any such notice shall describe the facts and circumstances upon which the
      asserted claim for indemnification is based and shall include the amount of
      the
      indemnified Losses (or, if such amount is not then determined, a good faith
      estimate thereof) and the basis for the determination of the amount of such
      Losses.

    

    (b)
      With
      respect to a third party claim:

    

       (i)
      The
      Indemnifying Party may, if applicable, and at the request of the Indemnified
      Party shall, participate in and control the defense of any third party claim
      at
      its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense (whether
      or not obligated to) of any such claim, the Indemnified Party may participate
      in
      such defense, but in such case the expenses of the Indemnified Party shall
      be
      paid by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall fail to defend
      a
      third party claim or, if after commencing or undertaking any such defense,
      shall
      fail to prosecute or shall withdraw from such defense, the Indemnified Party
      shall have the right to undertake the defense thereof at the Indemnifying
      Party’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party
      assumes the defense of a third party claim and if the Indemnified Party later
      determines in good faith that the third party claim is (x) likely to materially
      adversely affect it or its business in a manner that may not be adequately
      compensated by money damages or (y) may expose the Indemnified Party to
      potential obligations or Losses that may not be fully satisfied by the
      Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party may, by written notice to the
      Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle
      such claim. If the Indemnified Party shall so assume the exclusive right to
      defend, compromise, or settle such claim as it relates to the Indemnified
      Party’s liability only, all attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the
      Indemnified Party in the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim shall
      be at the Indemnifying Party’s expense.

       (ii)
      The
      Party controlling the defense of any third party suit, action or proceeding
      shall keep the other Party advised of the status of such action, suit or
      proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith
      recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto.

    

       (iii)
      The
      Indemnifying Party shall not settle any third party claim without the consent
      (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Indemnified
      Party if any relief, other than the payment of money damages which the
      Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to pay in full, would be granted against
      the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates by such settlement or if the Indemnified
      Party would be liable to the third party for any portion of such
      settlement.

    

    12.4.
      LICENSOR’S
      TRADEMARKS AND TRADENAMES.
      Licensor owns numerous trademarks and trade names (“Trillennium
      Marks”),
      including but not limited to the Trillennium® trademark and trade name. This
      Agreement does not confer or grant to Licensee any right or license to use
      Trillennium Marks. Licensee expressly covenants and agrees that it shall not
      use
      any of the Trillennium Marks for any purpose without first obtaining Licensor’s
      written consent to do so.

    

    13.
      DEFAULT; TERMINATION.

    

    13.1.
      Events
      of Default.
      Each of
      the following shall constitute an Event of Default:

    

    (a)
      There
      shall occur any failure by Licensee to pay, when due, any sum due and owing
      with
      respect to the purchase of Trillennium Systems or any components thereof, it
      being expressly understood and agreed that Licensee’s payment obligation
      hereunder arises only with respect to Trillennium Products, Trillennium Systems
      or any components thereof actually ordered and not as the result of any failure
      to order regardless of whether Licensee has satisfied its minimum purchase
      requirements as set forth in paragraphs 7.1 or 7.2 hereinabove; or

    

    (b)
      Any
      covenant, representation or warranty made by Licensee or Licensor in this
      Agreement shall prove to have been untrue or incorrect in any material respect;
      or

    

    (c)
      Licensee shall fail to perform any of the agreements or obligations imposed
      upon
      it pursuant to this Agreement, provided, however, that Licensee’s failure to
      comply with the purchase obligations set forth in Article 7 hereof shall not
      constitute or be deemed to be an Event of Default which would entitle Licensor
      to exercise any of the remedies specified in Section 13.2 hereof;
      or

    

    (d)
      Licensor shall fail to perform any of the agreements or obligations imposed
      upon
      it pursuant to this Agreement; or

    

    (e)
      Licensee or Licensor shall 

    

    (i)
      voluntarily dissolve, liquidate or terminate operations or apply for or consent
      to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian,
      trustee or liquidator of all or of a substantial part of its assets;

     

    (ii)
      admit in writing its inability, or be generally unable, to pay its debts as
      the
      debts become due; 

    

    (iii)
      make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 

    

    (iv)
      commence a voluntary case under the federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter
      in effect); or

    

    (v)
      file
      a petition seeking to take advantage of any other law relating to bankruptcy,
      insolvency, reorganization, winding up, or composition or adjustment of debts,
      (vi) fail to controvert in a timely and appropriate manner, or acquiesce in
      writing to, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case under the
      federal Bankruptcy Code, or (vii) take any corporate action for the purpose
      of
      effecting any of the foregoing; or

      involuntary petition or complaint shall be filed against Licensee or Licensor
      seeking bankruptcy relief or reorganization or the appointment of a receiver,
      custodian, trustee, intervener or liquidator of Licensee, of all or
      substantially all of its assets, and such petition or complaint shall not have
      been dismissed within 60 days of the filing thereof; or an order, order for
      relief, judgment or decree shall be entered by any court of competent
      jurisdiction or other competent authority approving or ordering any of the
      foregoing actions.

    

    13.2.
      Rights
      and Obligations upon Licensee’s or Licensor’s Default.
      Upon
      the occurrence of any of the Events of Default specified below, Licensor or
      Licensee, as the case may be, shall have the following rights and
      obligations:

    

    (a)
      Upon
      occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 13.1(a), (e) or (f),
      to
      terminate this Agreement immediately upon the giving of notice thereof to the
      non-defaulting Party.

    

    (b)
      Upon
      occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 13.1(b), (c) or (d),
      to
      terminate this Agreement on the fifteenth (15th)
      day
      after notice of such termination shall be given to Licensee or Licensor, as
      the
      case may be, unless within such period of time, the defaulting Party shall
      have
      cured the Default specified in such notice.

    

    (c)
      Termination of this Agreement shall not release the defaulting Party from the
      obligation to make payment of all amounts then or thereafter due and payable
      to
      Licensor hereunder.

    

    (d)
      Licensor shall have the right at its option to cancel any or all accepted
      purchase orders which provide for delivery after the effective date of any
      such
      termination.

    

    14.
      CONFIDENTIALITY.
      Licensee and Licensor both acknowledge a duty of care to each other. Each
      Party’s trade secrets and business information, including but not limited to
      customer lists, management information, and strategies and plans, that become
      known to the other are to be treated as confidential, are to be used solely
      in
      connection with the performance of this Agreement, and are not to be disclosed
      to anyone other than Licensee’s or Licensor’s officers and employees, as the
      case may be, who require access to the confidential information to perform
      their
      obligations under this Agreement. On termination of this Agreement, each Party
      shall deliver to the other all confidential information and materials and all
      copies thereof. The duty of confidentiality will survive the termination of
      this
      Agreement. 

    

    15.
      SUSPENSION
      OF PERFORMANCE.
      Whenever a Party’s performance of its obligations, other than those obligations
      involving payments for goods delivered, are substantially impaired by reason
      of
      circumstances beyond the reasonable control of such Party, including but not
      limited to failures or delay caused by the other Party, acts of God (including
      without limitation, flood or earthquake), war, embargo, strike, labor
      disturbance, riot, public disorder, terrorism, catastrophes of fire or
      explosion, local or foreign laws or regulations not existing at the time of
      execution of this Agreement, inability, beyond the party’s ability to control,
      to secure materials or transportation facilities, or the intervention of any
      governmental authority, then such performance will be excused during the course
      of such events and for a reasonable time thereafter. To assert the right to
      suspend performance, a Party must provide notice to the other Party within
      seven
      (7) days of the event justifying the suspension. The Parties will make
      commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of such events, and
      the
      party receiving such notification shall be entitled to suspension of its
      performance during such period of interruption.

    Additionally,
      Licensor agrees that it shall notify Licensee within three (3) business days
      of
      its receipt of any impending or threatened interruption in the supply of any
      components, which would impair Licensor’s ability to deliver Trillennium Systems
      in accord with the terms of this Agreement.

    

    16.
      DISPOSITION
      PERIOD.
      If this
      Agreement is terminated for any reason, Licensee will have One Hundred Twenty
      (120) days to dispose of its remaining inventory of Trillennium Products or
      Trillennium Systems or any components thereof in a manner consistent with the
      terms of this Agreement. If Licensee is unable to sell all remaining inventory
      within this period, Licensor will make reasonable efforts to find a third party
      buyer or otherwise dispose of the inventory. 

    

    17.
      GOVERNING
      LAW.
      All
      matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions
      contemplated hereby (including without limitation its interpretation,
      construction, performance and enforcement) shall be governed by and construed
      in
      accordance with the internal laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect
      to
      any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Ohio
      or
      any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any
      jurisdictions other than those of the State of Ohio to be applied.

    

    18.
      SUBMISSION
      TO JURISDICTION.
      Each of
      the Parties to this Agreement:

    

    (a)
      submits to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Ohio in
      Lucas
      County or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio
      located in Toledo, Ohio, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
      to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
      

    

    (b)
      agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard
      and
      determined in any such court; 

    

    (c)
      agrees that it shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction
      by
      motion or other request for leave from any such court; and 

    

    (d)
      agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
      this
      Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement in any other
      court. 

    

    Each
      of
      the Parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance
      of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other
      security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Any
      Party hereto may make service on the other Party by sending or delivering a
      copy
      of the process to the Party to be served at the address and in the manner
      provided for the giving of notices in Section 19. Nothing in this Section 18,
      however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any
      other
      manner permitted by law. 

    

    19.
      NOTICES.
      All
      notices, and other communications required in this Agreement will be in writing
      and will be sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,
      by a recognized international courier service or by electronic communication.
      Notices will be sent to the addresses shown at the beginning of this Agreement,
      or to any other address a Party may designate by notice in accordance with
      this
      Section. Notices will be deemed delivered when (a) the return receipt is signed,
      delivery is refused, or the notice is designated by the postal authority as
      not
      deliverable; (b) on the date of delivery recognized by an international courier
      service; (c) or on the date of transmission if sent by electronic communication.
      Notwithstanding the above, electronic notices and Purchase Orders sent to
      Licensor will only be deemed delivered when their delivery or acceptance is
      formally acknowledged by return notice from Licensor to Licensee.

    

    20.
      INDEPENDENT
      CONTRACTOR.
      Nothing
      herein shall be deemed to constitute Licensor and Licensee as partners or
      otherwise associated in or with the business of the other. Licensee is and
      will
      always remain an independent contractor and neither Party shall be liable for
      any debts, obligations, or liabilities of the other. Neither Party is authorized
      to incur debts or other obligations of any kind on the part of or as agent
      for
      the other. It is expressly recognized that no fiduciary relationship exists
      between the Parties.

    21.
      WAIVERS.
      The
      failure or delay of either Party to require performance by the other of any
      provision of this Agreement will not affect the right of that Party to require
      performance of that provision or to exercise any right, power, or remedy under
      this Agreement. A waiver regarding a breach of a provision of this Agreement
      is
      not to be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of that
      provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right, power,
      or
      remedy under this Agreement.

    

    22.
      SURVIVAL.
      All
      agreements, representations, and warranties made in this Agreement or made
      in
      writing pursuant to this Agreement will survive the termination or execution
      and
      delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      herein and hereby.

    

    23.
      SEVERABILITY.
      If any
      provision of this Agreement is contrary to, prohibited by, or deemed invalid
      under applicable laws or regulations, only that provision will be deemed omitted
      to the extent it is contrary, prohibited, or invalid, and the remainder of
      the
      Agreement will be given full force and effect so long as the Agreement does
      not
      then fail in its essential purpose or purposes. The Parties agree that they
      will
      negotiate in good faith to replace any invalid or unenforceable provision or
      provisions with suitable provisions to maintain the economic purposes and
      intentions of this Agreement.

    

    24.
      BINDING
      EFFECT.
      The
      terms and provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and shall inure to
      the
      benefit of the Parties, their respective legal representatives, successors,
      and
      permitted assigns.

    

    25.
      AMENDMENTS;
      SCHEDULES.
      This
      Agreement and the Schedules annexed hereto may only be amended by a writing
      that
      makes specific reference to this Agreement and that is signed by the Party
      against whom enforcement is sought.

    

    26.
      ASSIGNMENT.
      Licensee shall not assign this Agreement, or delegate its obligations hereunder
      without first having received Licensor’s consent thereto.

    

    27.
      AUTHORITY AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE.
      Licensor represents and warrants that it has the full and unrestricted legal
      authority to enter into and perform all of its obligations as set forth herein
      and further that it shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations
      applicable to this Agreement and its relationship with Licensee.

      WITNESS WHEREOF,

    Consideration

    

    (a)
      Within one (1) business day following Licensee’s receipt of an original of this
      Agreement executed by Licensor (the “First Payment Date”), Licensee shall pay to
      Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, the principal sum of *, and
      within five (5) business days after the First Payment Date, Licensee shall
      pay
      to Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, the principal sum of
      *.

    

    (b)
      No
      later than sixty (60) days after the First Payment Date, Licensee shall pay
      to
      Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, the principal sum of
      *.

    

    (c)
      Unless otherwise extended in accordance with the terms hereof, Licensee shall,
      no later than ninety (90)
      days
      after the First Payment Date, pay to Licensor’s order, in immediately available
      funds, the principal sum of *.

     

    (d) Provided
      Licensee is not in default of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement
      and further provided
      that Licensee gives Licensor no less than ten (10) days’ written notice in each
      instance of its election to extend pursuant to this paragraph, Licensee may
      extend the deadline for payment of the balance of * due pursuant to paragraph
      (d) above as follows:

     

    
      	i.  	
              by
                payment to Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, of the
                principal sum of * for an initial thirty (30) day
                extension;

            

    

    
      	ii.  	
              by
                payment to Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, of the
                principal sum of * for a second thirty (30) day
                extension;

            

    

    
      	iii.  	
              by
                payment to Licensor’s order, in immediately available funds, of the
                principal sum of * for a third thirty (30) day
                extension.

            

    

    

    Licensor
      understands and agrees that each of the extension payments described in the
      preceding subparagraphs (e)(i) through (e)(iii), inclusive, shall be credited
      against the * due pursuant to paragraph (d) above.

     

        (e)Failure
      to make all payments in full pursuant to paragraphs (a) through (d) above when
      due, except as
      may be
      extended only in accord with paragraph (e) above, shall be considered an Event
      of Default and all of Licensee’s rights under this Agreement shall terminate
      without recourse against Licensor or right to refund of any payments or
      deliveries made to Licensor; provided, however, that such termination shall
      not
      be effective unless and until Licensor has in each such instance served Licensee
      with not less than ten (10) days’ written notice of default and a right to cure
      such default within such notice period, and Licensee has failed to cure the
      default within such cure period.

     

        (f) In
      addition to the payments of monies due Licensor as set forth in paragraphs
      (a)
      through (d) above, Licensee
      shall issue to Licensor’s order, no later than the First Payment Date, such
      quantity of shares of Licensee’s voting, restricted and unregistered common
      stock (the “Licensee Shares”) as required to constitute, in the aggregate, a
      total value of * based on the average closing price per share of Licensee’s
      registered common stock for the first five (5) days of public trading
      thereof.

    (g)
      Licensor understands and agrees that when the Licensee Shares become eligible
      for lifting of restriction and resale in the open market, Licensor shall sell
      no
      more than * of the total number of shares issued pursuant to the preceding
      paragraph (g) in any one (1) calendar month. In furtherance of this paragraph,
      Licensor agrees to execute and deliver to Licensee such leakout agreements
      from
      time to time as Licensee may require in furtherance of Licensee’s strategic
      operating plans. 

    

    (h)
      Failure to make delivery of all shares of stock in accordance with the foregoing
      paragraph (g) of this Schedule C shall be considered an Event of Default and
      all
      of Licensee’s rights under this Agreement shall terminate without recourse
      against Licensor or right to refund of any payments or deliveries made to
      Licensor, provided, however, that such termination shall not be effective unless
      and until Licensor has served Licensee with not less than ten (10) days’ written
      notice of default and a right to cure such default within such notice period,
      and Licensee has failed to cure the default within such cure
      period.
