control of the Company, provided that the transaction constitutes a change in control

concerning the business or affairs of the Company (or of any affiliate or subsidiary of
the Company), including but not limited to lists of customers, business plans, joint
ventures, financial or cost information, and confidential scientific and technological

Executive under this Agreement in the event that the Board determines that the
Executive (a) has materially and substantially breached his obligations under this
Agreement, provided that the employment of Executive shall not be terminated under this
clause (a) unless the Executive is given notice in writing that that conduct in
question constitutes grounds for termination under this Section 11 and the Executive is
allowed at least thirty (30) days to remedy the breach, (b) has been convicted of a
felony constituting a crime of moral turpitude (whether or not in conjunction with the
performance by the Executive of his duties under this Agreement), or (c) has through

causes material injury to the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary of the Company).

of such action. Upon a termination of employment under this Section 11, the Company

bound by the provisions of Sections 9, 10 and 14.

	 	a)	 	If the employment of the Executive is terminated (i) by the
Company other than for cause as provided in Section 11, or (ii) by resignation
of the Executive because the responsibilities and duties of the Executive are,
other than for cause as provided in Section 11, materially diminished or
materially changed by the Company in a manner that materially impairs the
Executive’s ability to function as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
(provided that the Executive provides a notice of termination to the Company
within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of such material diminution or
material change and such diminution or change is not cured by the Company
within thirty (30) days after receiving notice thereof from the Executive), and
such termination constitutes an involuntary separation from service under
Section 409A of the Code, the Executive shall be entitled to receive, no later
than sixty (60) days following such termination, a Severance Payment (as
defined herein).

	 	b)	 	For purposes hereof, “Severance Payment” shall mean: upon
termination effective date, a lump sum amount equal to the Executive’s annual
Base Salary at the time of such termination.

	 	c)	 	The right of the Executive to the benefits specified in this
Section 12 are conditioned upon the execution and delivery by the Executive of
a Release, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

	 	d)	 	Termination of employment under this Section 12 shall not
terminate the Executive’s obligations under Sections 9, 10 and 14.

	 	13.	 	Death or Disability of the Executive. In the event that the Executive,
during the period while employed under this Agreement, shall die or, as a result of the
Executive’s incapacity due to injury or physical or mental illness, the Executive shall
have been unable to perform the Executive’s duties with the Company for a period of
three consecutive months, or for four months out of any six consecutive months, the
Company may terminate this Agreement and be relieved of all further obligations
hereunder, other than the payment of any accrued and unpaid Base Salary through the
date of termination and any expenses for which the Executive is entitled to be
reimbursed pursuant to Section 5. Termination of employment under this Section 13 by
reason of disability shall not terminate the Executive’s obligations under Section 9,
10 and 14.

	 	14.	 	Non-Competition. The Executive hereby agrees that, during the Term and
for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of his employment under
this Agreement (the “Initial Non-Compete Period”), he will not, directly or indirectly
and in any way, (a) own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, participate in, or
be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation or control of any
business competing with the business of the Company, (b) interfere with, solicit on
behalf of another or attempt to entice away from the Company (or any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Company) (i) any project, financing or customer that the Company (or
any affiliate or subsidiary of the Company) has under contract (including unfulfilled
purchase orders), or any letter of supply or other supplier contract or arrangement
entered into by the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary of the Company), and all
extensions, renewals and resolicitations of such contracts or arrangements, (ii) any
contract, agreement or arrangement that the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary of
the Company) is actively negotiating with any other party, or (iii) any prospective

has identified, or (c) for himself or another, hire, attempt to hire, or assist in or
facilitate in any way the hiring of any employee of the Company (or any affiliate or
subsidiary of the Company), or any employee of any person, firm or other entity, the
employees of which the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary of the Company) has
agreed not to hire or endeavor to hire. The effective time of the limitations imposed
by this Section 13 shall be extended for the period of time equal to any period of time
during which the Executive acts in circumstances that a court of competent jurisdiction
finds to have violated the terms of this Section 14. The Company may choose to extend
this non-competition period for an additional twelve (12) months by giving written
notice of such extension to Executive within sixty (60) days of the termination of his
Employment. In consideration for this extension, Executive shall be entitled to
receive a lump sum payment equal to the Severance Payment (the “Extended Non-Compete
Payment”) upon the expiration of the Initial Non-Compete Period, regardless of whether
the Executive was entitled to the Severance Payment under Section 12 of this Agreement.

Because of the Executive’s knowledge of the Company’s business, in the event of the
Executive’s actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 14, the Company
shall be entitled to, and the Executive hereby consents to, an injunction restraining the
Executive from any of the foregoing. However, nothing herein shall be construed as
prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for such breach or
threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive. The Executive
agrees that the provisions of this Section 14 are necessary and reasonable to protect the
Company in the conduct of its business. If any restriction contained in this Section 14
shall be deemed to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of the extent, duration of
geographic scope thereof, then the Company shall have the right to reduce such extent,
duration, geographic scope of other provisions thereof, and in their reduced form such
restrictions shall then be enforceable in the manner contemplated hereby.

	 	15.	 	Section 409A. The Company and the Executive hereby agree that, in the
event any provision in this Agreement is deemed to be inconsistent with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including the timing of any payment, they
will work together to amend or interpret this Agreement such that it complies with
Section 409A of the Code; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Executive
shall be required to agree to any amendment causing it to incur substantial costs or
forego substantial benefits. Although the payments and benefits provided under the
Agreement are intended to be exempt from, or to comply with, Section 409A of the Code,
the Company shall not be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty the
Executive incurs as a result of the failure of any payment or benefit to satisfy the
requirements of Section 409A.

	 	16.	 	Capacity. The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that he
is not now under any obligation, of a contractual nature or otherwise, to any person,
firm, corporation, association or other entity that is inconsistent or in conflict with
this Agreement or which would prevent, limit or impair in any way the performance by
him of his obligations hereunder.

	 	17.	 	Withholding. The Executive acknowledges that salary and all other
compensation payable under this Agreement shall be subject to withholding for income
and other applicable taxes to the extent required by law, as determined by the Company
in its reasonable judgment.

	 	18.	 	Indemnification. To the greatest extent permitted by applicable law
and the Company’s Articles and Bylaws, and in a manner consistent with any procedures
required by applicable law, the Corporation shall, during and following the termination
of the Executive’s employment by the Company, indemnify and hold the Executive harmless
from and against any liability (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees) incurred by the Executive in any claim, action, suit, or proceeding instituted or
brought against the Executive as a result of or arising out of service by the Executive
as an officer or director of the Company, or of any other corporation or other entity
at the request or direction of the Company, except to the extent that such liability is
the result of the criminal action or willful misconduct on the part of the Executive.

	 	19.	 	Waiver. No act, delay, omission or course of dealing on the part of
any party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as,
or be construed as, a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such party’s rights, powers
and remedies under this Agreement.

	 	20.	 	Notice. Any and all notices referred to herein shall be sufficient if
furnished in writing and delivered by hand or by overnight delivery service maintaining

shall continue to be bound by the terms thereof to the extent provided therein.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year
