7.3  SEVERANCE  BENEFITS.

     (a) If Employee's  employment under this Agreement is terminated before the
     end of the  Employment  Period by the Company  without Cause or by Employee
     for Good Reason (as defined in herein below), the Company shall continue to

     for a period extending sixty days thereafter.  Additionally, Employee shall
     be entitled to his share of the vested  stock  options  through the date of

     term incentive plan.

     (b) If  Employee's  employment  under this  Agreement is  terminated by the
     Company for Cause,  by Employee  without Good Reason or if Employee dies or
     becomes  totally  disabled (as defined in herein below),  the Company shall
     only pay  Employee a lump sum cash payment  within  thirty (30) days of the

     through the date of termination which shall be paid to him or his estate at
     such time as the next payment is made to the other  participants of the any
     stock option plan. Not  withstanding  the foregoing,  in the event that the
     Company  terminates  Employee's  employment  for Cause upon the reason that
     Employee  has   breached   the  terms  of  the   Employee   Non-Disclosure,
     Non-Competition  and Assignment of Inventions  Agreement  then, and in such
     event, Employee shall forfeit all right to any shares vested or unvested in

     Reason,  and  there  shall  be no Good  Reason  with  respect  to any  such
     circumstances  cured by the  Company  within  thirty  (30) days  after such

     this  Agreement upon the  termination  of his employment  with the Company,
     Employee  hereby  irrevocably  waives the right to receive any  payments or
     other benefits under any other  severance or similar plan maintained by the
     Company ("Other Severance Plan").

7.4     TERMINATION  BY  DEATH  OR  DISABILITY.  This  Agreement shall terminate
automatically  upon  Employee's  death.  If the Company determines in good faith
that  Employee has a "total disability" (within the meaning of such term or of a
similar  term as defined in the Company's long-term disability plan as in effect
from  time  to  time),  the  Company  may  terminate  his  employment under this
Agreement  by  notifying  Employee  thereof at least thirty (30) days before the
effective  date  of  such  termination.

that his employment hereunder will not conflict with or result in a violation or
breach  of,  or  constitute  a  default  under  any  contract,  agreement  or
understanding  to  which  he  is  or  was  a  party.

(a)  The  Company,  by  action of its Board, may terminate Employee's employment
under  this  Agreement without Cause (as defined in herein below) at any time by
giving notice thereof to Employees at least sixty (60) days before the effective
date  of  such termination. The Employment Period shall terminate as of the date
of  such  termination  of  employment.

(b)  The  Company,  by  action of its Board, may terminate Employee's employment
under  this  Agreement  for  Cause  at  any  time  by notifying Employee of such
termination. For all purposes of this Agreement, the Employment Period shall end
as  of the date of such termination of employment. "Cause" means Employee's: (i)
persistent  and  repeated  refusal,  failure  or neglect to perform the material
duties  of  his  employment  under  this  Agreement  (other  than  by  reason of
Employee's  physical  or mental illness or impairment), provided that such Cause
shall  be deemed to occur only after the Company gave notice thereof to Employee
specifying  in  reasonable  detail  the conduct constituting Cause, and Employee
failed  to  cure  and  correct  his  conduct  within thirty (30) days after such
notice;  (ii)  committing  any act of  fraud or embezzlement, provided that such
Cause  shall  be  deemed  to occur only after the Company gave notice thereof to
Employee  specifying  in  reasonable  detail  the instances of such conduct, and
Employee had the opportunity to be heard at a meeting of the Board; (iii) breach
of  the  Employee  Non-Disclosure,  Non-Competition and Assignment of Inventions
Agreement  or  of  such  other  subsequent  agreements  entered  into during the
Employment Period that results in a detriment to the Company; (iv) conviction of

7.2  TERMINATION BY EMPLOYEE. Employee may terminate this Agreement at any time,
for  any reason or for no reason at all, by giving notice thereof to the Company
at  least  ninety  (90)  days before the effective date of such termination. The

employment,  unless  the Company elects to waive such period of notice, in which
case,  the  Employment  Period shall terminate upon acceptance by the Company of
the  notice.

                                                                  Page  2  of  8

7.3  SEVERANCE  BENEFITS.

     (a) If Employee's  employment under this Agreement is terminated before the
     end of the  Employment  Period by the Company  without Cause or by Employee
     for Good Reason (as defined in herein below), the Company shall continue to
     pay to Employee his unpaid Base Salary through the time of termination  and
     for a period extending sixty days thereafter.  Additionally, Employee shall
     be entitled to his share of the vested  stock  options  through the date of
     termination  which shall be paid to him at such time as the next payment is
     made to the other  participants  of the any stock  option  plan or the long
     term incentive plan.

     (b) If  Employee's  employment  under this  Agreement is  terminated by the
     Company for Cause,  by Employee  without Good Reason or if Employee dies or
     becomes  totally  disabled (as defined in herein below),  the Company shall
     only pay  Employee a lump sum cash payment  within  thirty (30) days of the
     date of such termination,  equal to the sum of:  (i)Employee's  unpaid Base
     Salary earned to the  termination  date; (ii) his share of the vested stock
     through the date of termination which shall be paid to him or his estate at
     such time as the next payment is made to the other  participants of the any
     stock option plan. Not  withstanding  the foregoing,  in the event that the
     Company  terminates  Employee's  employment  for Cause upon the reason that
     Employee  has   breached   the  terms  of  the   Employee   Non-Disclosure,
     Non-Competition  and Assignment of Inventions  Agreement  then, and in such
     event, Employee shall forfeit all right to any shares vested or unvested in
     any stock  option or other bonus plan of the Company  along with any rights
     to any bonuses cash or otherwise.

     (c) "Good  Reason"  means:  any  material  failure by the Company to pay or
     provide the compensation and benefits under this Agreement;  provided that,
     in each such event,  Employee  shall give the Company  notice thereof which
     shall  specify in reasonable  detail the  circumstances  constituting  Good
     Reason,  and  there  shall  be no Good  Reason  with  respect  to any  such
     circumstances  cured by the  Company  within  thirty  (30) days  after such
     notice.

     (d) If Employee is entitled  to receive  payments or other  benefits  under
     this  Agreement upon the  termination  of his employment  with the Company,
     Employee  hereby  irrevocably  waives the right to receive any  payments or
     other benefits under any other  severance or similar plan maintained by the
     Company ("Other Severance Plan").

7.4     TERMINATION  BY  DEATH  OR  DISABILITY.  This  Agreement shall terminate
automatically  upon  Employee's  death.  If the Company determines in good faith
that  Employee has a "total disability" (within the meaning of such term or of a
similar  term as defined in the Company's long-term disability plan as in effect
from  time  to  time),  the  Company  may  terminate  his  employment under this
Agreement  by  notifying  Employee  thereof at least thirty (30) days before the
effective  date  of  such  termination.

8.  REPRESENTATION  BY EMPLOYEE. Employee represents and warrants to the Company
that his employment hereunder will not conflict with or result in a violation or
breach  of,  or  constitute  a  default  under  any  contract,  agreement  or
understanding  to  which  he  is  or  was  a  party.
