    2. Duties.

    

    Employee
      is engaged in the position of President and Chief Executive Officer. Employee
      shall perform faithfully and diligently the duties customarily performed by
      persons in the position for which Employee is engaged, and such other similar
      and related duties as the Board of Directors of the Company shall reasonably
      assign to Employee from time to time. The duties of Employee shall encompass
      but
      not necessarily be limited to the following areas and activities:

    

    A. To
      analyze the activities and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries and
      affiliates and make recommendations to achieve greater operating
      efficiencies.

    

    B. To
      conduct activities on behalf of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates
      including but not limited to investigating opportunities for consolidation,
      making recommendations for internal financial restructuring, and searching
      for
      potential merger and acquisition candidates.

    

    C. To
      analyze the investment portfolios of the Company and its subsidiaries and
      affiliates and make recommendations to achieve higher yield and a greater

    E. To

      Directors of the Company on October 17, 2003.

    

    Employee
      will devote such time and efforts to completing his duties as is reasonably
      necessary to maximize the success of the Company’s business.

    

    3.
       Compensation.

    

    A. Base
      Salary.
      During
      the term of this Agreement, as compensation for the proper and satisfactory
      performance of all duties to be performed by Employee hereunder, Company shall
      pay to Employee a base salary of $1,075,000.00 per year, payable in accordance
      with the normal payroll practices of the Company, less required deductions
      for
      state and federal income tax withholding, social security and other required
      payroll taxes. The base salary shall be revised annually with the first
      adjustment occurring on January 1, 2006, in the same percentage applicable
      to
      the Company’s other staff members, in an amount deemed adequate to provide for
      cost of living, subject to Committee approval, based on several major
      compensation indices.

    

    B. Incentive
      Award.
      In
      addition, Employee shall be eligible to receive an annual incentive award based
      on the growth of the Company’s book value per share (adjusted for any book value
      impact by 7⁄8 of all stock appreciation rights--related expenses net of tax)
      during the fiscal year, above a threshold. The threshold above which incentives
      are earned is 80% of the S&P 500 annualized total return for the five
      previous years, (but no less than 0). If the increase in book value per share
      exceeds this threshold, the incentive award shall be equal to 5% of such excess
      multiplied by the number of shares outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal
      year. The incentive award shall be paid in cash, less applicable tax
      withholdings. 

    

    C. Employee
      Benefits.
      Employee shall be entitled to the standard employee benefit package made
      available to employees of the Company, subject to the terms, conditions and
      restrictions stated in that package and the applicable benefit plan documents.
      Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the termination payments available
      under
      this Agreement shall be in lieu of any standard severance benefits payable
      to
      Employee under the severance program available generally to employees of
      Company. Company shall have the right at any time to prospectively amend, modify
      or eliminate employee benefits, which changes shall become effective
      immediately.

    

    D. Payments
      by Affiliates.
      All
      compensation, fees or other remuneration payable to Employee by any affiliate
      of
      the Company shall be waived or if paid, remitted to the
      Company.

              4.

            	 	
              Termination.

            

    

    

    If
      Employee’s services under this Agreement are terminated by the Company for any
      reason other than cause or the death or disability of Employee, prior to January
      1, 2008, Employee shall be paid a lump sum equal to $3,225,000.00 (less
      applicable tax withholdings). If Employee’s services are terminated by the
      Company for any reason other than cause or the death or disability of Employee
      on or after January 1, 2008 and prior to December 31, 2010, Employee shall
      be
      paid a lump sum equal to $3,225,000.00 (less applicable tax withholdings) minus
      the amount previously paid to Employee under Section 3.A. of this Agreement
      from
      January 1, 2008 to the date of termination. In addition to the amount set forth
      above, Employee shall receive the pro rata portion of the annual incentive
      award
      that would have been payable to Employee under Section 3.B. of this Agreement
      for the year in which termination of employment occurs. The portion payable
      to
      Employee shall be equal to the incentive award payable for the full year of
      termination times a fraction, the numerator of which is the increase in book
      value per share at the date of termination and the denominator of which is
      the
      increase in book value per share at December 31 for the year of termination.
      The
      incentive award shall be paid in cash, less applicable tax withholdings, within
      2-1/2 months after the end of the year of termination. 

    

    
      	 	
              5.

            	
              Death
                or Disability of Employee.

            

    

    

    In
      the
      event Employee terminates employment as a result of death or permanent and
      total
      disability (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in its sole
      discretion) prior to January 1, 2008, a lump sum shall be paid to Employee
      or to
      the person designated by Employee to receive death benefits hereunder, in an
      amount equal to $3,225,000.00 (less applicable withholding taxes). In the event
      Employee terminates employment as a result of death or permanent and total
      disability on or after January 1, 2008 and prior to December 31, 2010, Employee
      or the person designated by Employee to receive death benefits hereunder shall
      be paid a lump sum in an amount equal to $3,225,000.00 (less applicable
      withholding taxes) minus the amount previously paid to Employee under Section
      3.A. of this Agreement from January 1, 2008 to the date of termination of
      employment. In addition to the amount set forth above, Employee shall receive
      the pro rata portion of the annual incentive award that would have been payable
      to Employee under Section 3.B. of this Agreement for the year in which
      termination of employment occurs. The portion payable to Employee shall be
      equal
      to the incentive award payable for the full year of termination times a
      fraction, the numerator of which is the increase in book value per share at
      the
      date of termination and the denominator of which is the increase in book value
      per share at December 31 of the year of termination. The incentive award shall
      be paid in cash, less applicable tax withholdings, within 2-1/2 months after
      the
      end of the year of termination. If no person has been designated by Employee
      to
      receive death benefits hereunder, payment shall be made to Employee’s surviving
      spouse (if any) or to Employee’s estate if Employee is not married at the time
      of death.

    

    
      	6.  	
              Termination
                by Employee

            

    

    

    In
      the
      event Employee terminates employment for any reason prior to December 31, 2010,
      Company shall make a lump sum payment to Employee in the amount (less applicable
      tax withholdings) of $500,000.00 if Employee terminates employment during
      calendar year 2006. Such lump sum amount shall decrease by $100,000.00 each
      calendar year thereafter.

    

    
      	7.  	
              Non-Solicitation
                of Employees

            

    

    

    Employee
      agrees that for a period of one (1) year following termination of employment,
      Employee will not solicit any officer or key employee of the Company or its
      subsidiaries or affiliates for employment.

    

    
      	 	
              8.

            	
              Golden
                Parachute Limitation.

            

    

    

    To
      the
      extent that any payment to Employee under this Agreement taken together with
      any
      other payments made to Employee constitutes an “excess parachute payment” within
      the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, payments to employee will
      be
      reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate any excess parachute payment.
      Employee may direct which payments to reduce to meet the
      requirements.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

    
      	 	
              9.

            	
              Confidentiality.

            

    

    

    Both
      during the term of his engagement by the Company and thereafter, Employee shall
      not, without the prior written consent of the Company, or as required by the
      order of any court or administrative agency with jurisdiction, divulge to any
      third party, or use for his own benefit or for any purpose other than the
      exclusive benefit of the Company, any confidential information concerning its
      business and affairs obtained by him during the term of his engagement; it
      being
      the intent hereof that Employee shall not so divulge or use any such information
      which is unpublished or not readily available to the general public. Nothing
      contained in this Section 9 shall restrict Employee’s ability to make such
      disclosures during the course of his employment as may be necessary or
      appropriate to the effective and efficient discharge of his duties to the
      Company under this Agreement.

    

    10. Other
      Agreements.

    

    Employee
      represents and warrants to the Company that there is no agreement between him
      and any other person, firm or corporation concerning the performance of services
      under this Agreement or which in any way might prevent Employee from performing
      his obligations under this Agreement. Nothing shall be interpreted as precluding
      Employee from seeking or performing other employment or consulting work.

    

    11. Assignment.

    

    This
      Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent
      of the other.

    

    
      	 	
              12.

            	
              Waiver
                of Breach.

            

    

    

    Failure
      to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, promises or conditions
      of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such terms, promise or
      condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of any right or power
      hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of
      such
      right or power, unless specifically stated.

    

    
      	 	
              13.

            	
              Severability.

            

    

    

    The
      invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall in no way affect
      the validity or enforceability of any other provision.

    

    
      	 	
              14.

            	
              Modification.

            

    

    

    This
      Agreement cannot be amended, changed, modified, or discharged except by an
      agreement in writing signed by both the Company and Employee. In the event
      the
      Company determines that modifications may be necessary to facilitate compliance
      with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, the Company and
      Employee shall cooperate to adopt such modifications.

    

    
      	 	
              15.

            	
              Governing
                Law.

            

    

    

    This
      Agreement and the performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws
      of
      the state of California.

of the Directive; and (ii) provide MS with a commercially reasonable amount of
time to respond to COMPANY regarding the foregoing assertions.

(m) MS reserves all rights not expressly granted in this Agreement.

(n) DISTRIBUTOR shall make no representation, nor any express or implied

        (i) MS has and will retain title to all Licensed Product (and related
papers and materials) from the time that the Licensed Product is acquired by
DISTRIBUTOR from ARs and MS Affiliates until DISTRIBUTOR distributes the
Licensed Products in compliance with the Agreement.

        (ii) As MS owns all Licensed Product(s) in the possession and control of
DISTRIBUTOR (including inventory held in a Virtual Warehouse), MS may take
possession of or destroy all Licensed Product inventory (and related papers and

bankruptcy or insolvency case is filed by or against DISTRIBUTOR or a receiver
or trustee is appointed to operate or liquidate DISTRIBUTOR.

        (iii) In no circumstances will any receiver or trustee of DISTRIBUTOR be
entitled to sell or distribute any Licensed Product obtained by DISTRIBUTOR
pursuant to the Agreement except in strict compliance with the terms of the
Agreement, and only with the express written consent of MS.

(a) This Agreement, and all related matters shall be governed by and interpreted
under the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict of law
rules. Venue over all disputes arising under this Agreement and all related
matters shall be exclusively in the federal courts within the State of
Washington or the federal courts within the State of New York, or in the event
there is no federal subject matter jurisdiction, exclusively in the state courts
of the State of Washington. Each party irrevocably consents to the exercise of
personal jurisdiction by any of those courts and acknowledges and agrees that
the court will apply Washington law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MS may
pursue injunctive relief against DISTRIBUTOR in any forum in order to protect
intellectual property rights. Process may be served on either party as
authorized by applicable law or court rule. In the event injunctive relief is
pursued in a forum other than those specified herein, MS will provide prior
notice thereof to DISTRIBUTOR; provided, however, that no notice will be
required if MS has reasonably determined that the provision of prior notice will
prevent it from reasonably protecting its intellectual property. The United
Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not
apply to this Agreement.

(b) If either party employs attorneys to enforce any rights arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, the primarily prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover its reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and other expenses.

(c) This Agreement shall be written and executed only in the English language,
which shall be controlling in all respects. If MS provides a translation or
summary of this Agreement in any other language to DISTRIBUTOR, such translation
or summary shall be non-binding and for reference purposes only, and shall not
constitute an amendment, modification or interpretation of this Agreement.

(c) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality,

                       OEM VOLUME ROYALTY PROGRAM SCHEDULE

As of the publication date of this version of the Microsoft OEM Distribution
Agreement for Software Products for Embedded Systems, MOO had not yet been
modified to allow the input of OEM Volume Royalty Program registration
information. Until that tool has been modified, all registrations of Volume
Devices will be handled by means of a side letter to be executed by both
parties.

For new Volume Devices to be registered after MOO has been so enabled,
DISTRIBUTOR will enter new OEM Volume Royalty Program registrations through MOO.
* pricing under the OEM Volume Royalty Program will apply to new Volume Devices
as of the first day of the next full calendar month after MS provides email
notice that the Volume Device registration has been approved ("Volume Device
Registration Date").

The * royalty opportunity outlined in this Schedule will be referred to as "OEM
Volume Royalty Program". MS authorizes DISTRIBUTOR to offer the * royalty rate
indicated for the OEM Volume Royalty Program in MOO to its OEM Customers in
consideration for DISTRIBUTOR's commitment with MS and with DISTRIBUTOR's
strategic OEM Customer*.

1.  * ROYALTY TERMS.

(a) The royalty rate specified in this Schedule applies only to Volume Products
to be shipped on Volume Devices. * Any violation of the terms of this Schedule
is grounds for a termination of the Agreement as an uncurable material breach
under Section 16 of the Agreement.

(b) The OEM Volume Royalty Program is only valid for a 12 month period following
each Volume Device Registration Date ("OVRP Period"), and provided that at all
times during the OVRP Period: (i) DISTRIBUTOR has a valid Microsoft OEM
Distribution Agreement for Software Products for Embedded Systems, and (ii)
Volume Customer has a valid OEM Customer Agreement. MS is under no obligation to
enter into future distribution agreements with DISTRIBUTOR, or to offer
DISTRIBUTOR this reduced royalty rate in any future distribution agreement.

(c) *

(d) DISTRIBUTOR agrees to pay MS the total royalties due for the specific Volume
Products distributed to the Volume Customer at the rates specified in the OEM
Volume Royalty Form.

(e) DISTRIBUTOR will be notified via email or ECE if MS reduces its pricing for
the Volume Products after the Volume Device Registration Date, and such pricing
changes will be effective on the first date of the calendar month following such
notice.

2.  *

3.  REPORTING.

DISTRIBUTOR shall provide MS with a monthly sales-out report (the "Report") per
Section 4(c) of the Agreement, including any corrections per Section 4(h) of the
Agreement, indicating the royalties payable under the terms of this Schedule and
the Agreement, calculating the cumulative total of Volume Products shipped since
the Volume Device Registration Date ("Total Shipped to Date") against the
cumulative Volume Commitment as of the current quarter as specified in the OEM
Volume Royalty Form. For sales-out reporting purposes, DISTRIBUTOR shall use the
20th column labeled "OVR" to enter the applicable royalty rate for all the
records that DISTRIBUTOR reports as part of the OEM Volume Royalty Program.

4.  *

5.  *

6.  MISCELLANEOUS.

Capitalized terms used in this Schedule, and not otherwise defined, have the
meaning set forth in the Agreement. The term of each OVRP Period is effective
from the Volume Device Registration Date until the earlier of (a) * months from
that date, (b) termination or expiration of the Agreement (if the parties do not
enter into a successor agreement); or (c) termination or expiration of the OEM
Customer Agreement (if the parties do not enter into a successor agreement).

collectively as the "Sites." With respect to this Agreement and DISTRIBUTOR's
use of a Site, DISTRIBUTOR agrees to the following terms and conditions, and
shall cause its DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s) and Users to use the Sites in
compliance with this Schedule and the terms of use or other conditions or
instructions posted on the Sites:

(a) As used in this Schedule, the term "User" means an officer, employee,
consultant or other person or agent of DISTRIBUTOR who has, or who creates the
appearance of having, been duly authorized by DISTRIBUTOR to use the applicable
Site on behalf of DISTRIBUTOR. The term "DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s)" means the
User(s) designated by DISTRIBUTOR in the Address Schedule of this Agreement
until such time as MS has received not less than *hours notice from DISTRIBUTOR
through the * or * email aliases for MOO and the ECE respectively that
DISTRIBUTOR has made a change to any authority previously established by
DISTRIBUTOR in connection with such designation.

(b) DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s) shall be solely responsible for establishing,
maintaining and terminating all access and authorities for Users, including
(without limitation) creating or arranging for all passwords, private encryption
keys or other identifiers utilized in connection with a Site security or
DISTRIBUTOR security (collectively, "DISTRIBUTOR Password Information"), and
shall keep all DISTRIBUTOR Password Information secure from unauthorized access.
On behalf of DISTRIBUTOR, DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s) shall, and shall cause

(c) MS reserves the right to suspend or terminate authorities, or to suspend or
block access to all or any part of a Site or information, upon electronic notice
(indicating the reason for such action) to the DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s)
email address; provided, however, that no notice shall be required if MS has
determined that there is possible harm or threat of harm to MS, a Site or
others. If prior notice is not provided, MS will provide DISTRIBUTOR with
subsequent notice within a reasonable time unless the provision thereof might
continue a possible harm or threat of harm, or impede or compromise any
investigation into the same.

(d)  *

(e)  DISTRIBUTOR EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT:

    (i) EACH SITE IS PROVIDED AS IS, AND THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS, DAMAGE
EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES IN THIS AGREEMENT ALL APPLY TO EACH SITE
AND TO THEIR INFORMATION, FUNCTIONALITY, SERVICES AND AVAILABILITY OR LACK
THEREOF; AND

    (ii) DISTRIBUTOR WILL NOT RELY ON OR TREAT ANY SITE INFORMATION AS AN
EXPRESS WARRANTY.

(f) MS reserves the right to change or discontinue all or any portion of the MOO
Site at any time. Users may make a copy of MOO information to document

required to provide. MS agrees to retain not less than * years of DISTRIBUTOR
MOO online transactional record availability through the standard MOO user
interface, and not less than * years of retrievable offline MOO transactional
record archival (e.g., electronic media) following expiration of online
availability. Except for the foregoing records, MS has no duty to retain or make
available Site information or records for DISTRIBUTOR's later access.

It is understood that DISTRIBUTOR will not be required to use the MOO Site if
(1) MS suspends or blocks access or otherwise disables all or any part of the
MOO Site or any Tool; or (2) the MOO Site or any Tool are not accessible or are
not functioning correctly, and such problems are not resolved by MS within *
hours of DISTRIBUTOR providing notice to MS describing such problem. In the
event of the foregoing, MS will provide DISTRIBUTOR with a reasonable
alternative means for reporting transactions, and DISTRIBUTOR shall be deemed in
compliance with the Agreement (and will not be penalized for delays in
reporting) so long as DISTRIBUTOR complies with the alternative reporting
structure in a prompt manner.

(g) The Sites are not open to the public and their respective functionality and
all information on them shall be treated as confidential information under
Section 17 of the Agreement. DISTRIBUTOR agrees not to distribute to any third
party any Supplemental Code accessed on ECE, unless expressly authorized by MS
to do so.

(h) (i) DISTRIBUTOR agrees to access and use MOO for all transactions and
purposes contemplated by MOO until the date that is the earliest of the date
that: (A) MS ceases to provide MOO to similarly situated embedded distributors,
or (B) the date DISTRIBUTOR has satisfied all of its rights and obligations
under all License Agreements.

    (ii) Subject to applicable law, all actions taken by the DISTRIBUTOR
Administrator(s) or any other User at or in relation to a Site shall be
attributed to and legally bind DISTRIBUTOR if (A) DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s)
or any other User(s) has supplied on the applicable Site or otherwise in
relation to a Site session, DISTRIBUTOR Password Information; or (B) DISTRIBUTOR
or Users have failed to keep DISTRIBUTOR Password Information secure and the
failure caused or contributed to creation of an appearance that actions taken in
connection with the applicable Site were being taken by,
