                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement"), is made and entered into as of
the 1st day of June 2004, by and between Kensey Nash Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and Douglas G. Evans ("Executive").

      WHEREAS, the Company wishes to retain Executive as an executive employee,
and Executive wishes to be employed by the Company in such capacity, all upon
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of parties
hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as
follows:

1. EMPLOYMENT OF EXECUTIVE. The Company engages and employs Executive in an
executive capacity and Executive accepts such employment and agrees to act as an
employee of the Company in accordance with the terms of employment hereinafter
specified. Executive shall hold the office of Chief Operating Officer and shall,
subject to the direction and supervision of the Company's of Board of Directors,
(a) have the responsibilities and authority customarily associated with such
office, and (b) perform such other duties and responsibilities as the Company's
Board of Directors shall from time to time assign to him. Executive agrees
diligently and faithfully to serve the Company and to devote his best efforts,
his full business time and his highest talents and skills to the furtherance and
success of the Company's business.

2. COMPENSATION. As full and complete compensation to Executive for all services
to be rendered by Executive hereunder, the Company shall pay Executive as
follows:

      (a) The Company shall, during the term of Executive's employment, pay or
cause to be paid to Executive a base salary at the rate of $250,000 per annum,
or Executive's most recent per annum base salary, whichever is greater. Such
base salary shall be paid in periodic installments at the discretion of the
Company (but not less frequently than monthly) in accordance with the Company's
normal mode of executive salary payment.

      (b) The Company may, during the term of Executive's employment, pay or
cause to be paid to Executive an annual bonus of cash, not to exceed 100% of the
base salary. In addition, stock, stock options and or stock rights may be
awarded by the Company's Board of Directors in their sole discretion.

3. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT; SEVERANCE.

      (a) The term of Executive's employment hereunder (the "Employment Term")
shall commence on the date hereof and shall expire three (3) years after such
date.

      (b) Termination of Executive's employment pursuant to this Agreement or
voluntary termination of employment shall not constitute a waiver of any of
Executive's obligations hereunder which survive termination hereof, including
without limitation those arising under paragraphs 5 through 9 inclusive hereof.

      (c) In the event Executive's employment is terminated by the Company
without cause (as hereinafter determined), Executive shall continue to be
entitled to receive those fringe benefits enumerated in paragraph 4 hereof until
the expiration of the original Employment Term and the Company shall pay to
Executive a severance fee equal to the greater of (i) any amount of base salary
remaining until the expiration of the original Employment Term and bonus for
each remaining year of the original Employment Term, which bonus shall be based
on an average of the bonuses earned by Executive during the last two fiscal
years prior to such termination without cause (the "Estimated Bonus"), to which
Executive would otherwise be entitled but for such termination, or (ii) twelve
(12) months of Executive's salary and Estimated Bonus; provided, however, that
Executive shall not be entitled to receive any fringe benefits or such severance
fee if Executive breaches any of his obligations arising under paragraphs 7
through 9 hereof. The continuance of Executive's fringe benefits and the payment
by the Company of any severance fee to Executive pursuant to this Agreement
shall be in complete satisfaction and settlement of, and as liquidated damages
for, any and all of Executive's claims, damages or causes of action arising
directly or indirectly from this Agreement. In addition, upon the termination of
Executive's employment by the Company without cause, all options to purchase
shares of common stock of the Company ("Options") that were granted to Executive
and have vested prior to the date of such termination without cause shall remain
exercisable for a period of one (1) year from the date of such termination
without cause.

      (d) In the event Executive's employment is terminated with cause, the
Company shall have no further obligations hereunder or otherwise with respect to
Executive's employment from and after the date of such termination, except for
the payment of Executive's base salary accrued through the date of such
termination. For purposes of this Agreement, "cause" for termination shall be
deemed to exist upon (i) a determination by the Company's Board of Directors
that Executive has committed an act of fraud, embezzlement or other act of
dishonesty which would reflect adversely on the integrity of the Company or if
Executive is convicted of any criminal statute involving breach of fiduciary
duty or moral turpitude; (ii) a reasonable determination by the Company's Board
of Directors that Executive has failed to discharge his duties in a reasonably
satisfactory manner which failure is not cured by Executive within thirty (30)
days after delivery of written notice to Executive specifying the nature of such
failure; (iii) the death of Executive; (iv) a mental or physical disability of
Executive which renders Executive, in the reasonable opinion of the Company's
Board of Directors, unable to effectively perform his duties hereunder for a
substantially continuous period of one hundred eighty (180) days; or (v) the
voluntary termination of Executive's employment hereunder other than as a result
of a breach of the Company's obligations hereunder.

      (e) In the event Executive's employment is terminated by the Company
pursuant to a Change in Control (as that term is defined in that certain
Termination and Change in Control Agreement dated of even date herewith between
the Company and Executive (the "Change in Control Agreement")), the Company
shall pay to Executive a severance fee equal to the greater of (i) the amount
Executive would be entitled to receive under paragraph 3(c) of this Agreement
for a termination without cause, or (ii) the amount Executive would be entitled
to receive pursuant to a Change in Control under the Change in Control
Agreement.

      (f) In the event Executive's employment is not renewed by the Company upon
the expiration of the Employment Term for a term (the "Renewal Term") of at
least two (2) years, Executive shall, upon (i) the expiration of the Renewal
Term, if any, or (ii) the Employment Term in the event there is no Renewal Term,
or (iii) upon Executive's voluntary termination within 60 days of the Company's
failure to renew his employment on substantially the same terms as set forth
herein for at least two (2) years, continue to receive those fringe benefits
enumerated in paragraph 4 hereof for a period of twelve (12) months, and the
Company shall pay to Executive a severance fee equal to twelve (12) months of
Executive's salary and the Estimated Bonus; provided, however, that Executive
shall not be entitled to receive any fringe benefits or such severance fee if
Executive breaches any of his obligations arising under paragraphs 7 through 9
hereof. In addition, all Options that were granted to Executive and have vested
prior to the expiration of the Renewal Term shall remain exercisable for a
period of one (1) year from the expiration of the Renewal Term.

      (g) In the event any payments or benefits received by the Executive upon
his termination of employment (which payments shall include, without limitation,
the vesting of an option or other non-cash benefit or property), whether
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement, or
agreement with the Company or any affiliated company (collectively, the "Total
Payments") would be subject (in whole or in part) to the excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or
any similar tax as may hereafter be imposed (the "Excise Tax"), the following
provisions shall apply:

            (i) In the event that the Total Payments cause the Executive's
      "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code
      to equal or to exceed three times the Executive's "base amount" within the
      meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code (the "Trebled Base Amount") by
      an amount which is not greater than 10% of the Trebled Base Amount, the
      Total Payments shall be reduced (or eliminated) such that no portion of
      the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax. Reductions shall be made
      first to those Total Payments arising under the terms of this Agreement.

            (ii) In the event that the Total Payments cause the parachute
      payments to exceed 110% of the Trebled Base Amount, the Company shall pay
      to the Executive at the time specified below, an additional amount
      determined as set forth below (the "Gross-up Payment"). The Gross-up
      Payment shall be made with respect to the amount which equals 100% of the
      Executive's "excess parachute payments" subject to the Excise Tax. The
      Gross-up Payment shall be an amount such that the net amount retained by
      Executive with respect to the Total Payments after reduction for any
      Excise Tax on the Total Payments and any federal, state and local income
      or employment tax and Excise Tax payable by the Executive on the Gross-up
      Payment hereunder (provided that such amount is actually paid when due)
      shall be equal to the amount of the Total Payments that the Executive
      would retain if the Total Payments did not constitute parachute payments.

            (iii) For purposes of determining whether any of the Total Payments
      will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of any Excise Tax:

                                       71
<PAGE>

                  (a) The Total Payments shall be treated as "parachute
            payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and
            all "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section
            280G(b)(1) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the Excise
            Tax, unless, and except that to the extent that, in the written
            opinion of independent legal counsel, compensation consultants or
            auditors of nationally recognized standing ("Independent Advisors")
            selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive, the
            Total Payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute
            payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part)
            represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered
            within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of
            the base amount within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code
            or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax;

                  (b) The amount of the Total Payments which shall be treated as
            subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the
            total amount of the Total Payments or (ii) the total amount of
            excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1)
            of the Code (after applying Section 3(g)(iii)(a) above); and

                  (c) The value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment
            or benefit shall be determined by the Independent Advisors in
            accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the
            Code.

                  In the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to
            be less than the amount taken into account hereunder at the time the
            Gross-up Payment is made, Executive shall repay to the Company at
            the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise Tax is finally
            determined (but, if previously paid to the taxing authorities, not
            prior to the time the amount of such reduction is refunded to
            Executive or otherwise realized as a benefit by Executive) the
            portion of the Gross-up Payment that would not have been paid if
            such Excise Tax had been applied to initially calculating the
            Gross-up Payment, plus interest on the amount of such repayment at
            the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code. In the event
            that the Excise Tax is determined to exceed the amount taken into
            account hereunder at the time the Gross-up Payment is made
            (including by reason of any payment the existence or amount of which
            cannot be determined at the time of the Gross-up Payment), the
            Company shall make an additional Gross-up Payment and shall
            indemnify and hold Executive harmless in respect of such excess
            (plus any interest and penalties payable with respect to such
            excess) at the time that the amount of such excess is finally
            determined.

            The Gross-up Payment provided for above shall be paid on the 30th
      day (or such earlier date as the Excise Tax becomes due and payable to the
      taxing authorities) after it has been determined that the Total Payments
      (or any other portion thereof) are subject to the Excise Tax; provided,
      however, that if the amount of such Gross-up Payment or portion thereof
      cannot be finally determined on or before such day, the Company shall pay
      to Executive on such day an estimate, as determined by the Independent
      Advisors, of the minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the
      remainder of such payments (together with interest at the rate provided in
      Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code), as soon as the amount thereof can be
      determined. In the event that the amount of the estimated payments exceeds
      the amount subsequently determined to have been due, such excess shall
      constitute a loan by the Company to Executive, payable on the fifth day
      after demand by the Company (together with interest at the rate provided
      in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code). If more than one Gross-up Payment
      is made, the amount of each Gross-up Payment shall be computed so as not
      to duplicate any prior Gross-up Payment.

            Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the
      Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by
      the Company of the Gross-up Payment. Such notification shall be given as
      soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after
      Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the
      Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is
      requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the
      expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which it gives such
      notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any
      payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company
      notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that
      it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall:

            (i)   give the Company any information reasonably requested by the
                  Company relating to such claim;

                                       72
<PAGE>

            (ii)  take such action in connection with contesting such claim as
                  the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to
                  time, including, without limitation, accepting legal
                  representation with respect to such claim by an attorney
                  reasonably selected by the Company;

            (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively
                  to contest such claim; and

            (iv)  permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating
                  to such claim;

      provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs
      and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in
      connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive
      harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income or
      employment tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto)
      imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and
      expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section
      3(g), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with
      such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all
      administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the
      taxing authority in respect of such claim and proceedings, hearings and
      conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at
      its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue
      for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive
      agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any
      administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or
      more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however,
      that if the Company directs Executive to pay such claim and sue for a
      refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive,
      on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold Executive
      harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income or
      employment (including income or employment or interest or penalties with
      respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to
      any imputed income with respect to such advance; and further provided that
      any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes
      for the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested
      amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount.
      Furthermore, the Company's control of the contest shall be limited to
      issues with respect to which a Gross-up Payment would be payable hereunder
      and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may
      be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other
      taxing authority. If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced
      by the Company pursuant to this Section 3(g), Executive becomes entitled
      to receive any refund with respect to such claim, Executive shall (subject
      to the Company's complying with the requirements of this Section 3(g))
      promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any
      interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If,
      after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by the Company
      pursuant to this Section 3(g), a determination is made that Executive
      shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the
      Company does not notify Executive in writing of its intent to contest such
      denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such
      determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be
      required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the
      extent thereof, the amount of Gross-up Payment required to be paid.

4. FRINGE BENEFITS.

      (a)   During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to
            participate in all health insurance and retirement benefit programs
            normally available to other executives of the Company holding
            positions similar to that of Executive hereunder (subject to all
            applicable eligibility rules thereof), as from time to time in
            effect. Executive shall also receive the benefits listed on Exhibit
            A hereto.

      (b)Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation according to the normal
      vacation schedule for other executive employees. Executive shall make good
      faith efforts to schedule such vacations so as to least conflict with the
      conduct of the Company's business and shall give the Company adequate
      advance notice of his planned absences.

      (c)   The Company shall reimburse Executive for all business-related
            expenses incurred by Executive at the Company's direction. Executive
            shall submit to the Company expense reports in compliance with
            established Company guidelines.

                                       73

5. INVENTIONS. Executive agrees, on behalf of himself, his heirs and personal
representatives, that he will promptly communicate, disclose and transfer to the
Company free of all encumbrances and restrictions (and will execute and deliver
any papers and take any action at any time deemed necessary by the Company to
further establish such transfer) all inventions and improvements relating to
Company's business originated or developed by Executive solely or jointly with
others during the term of his employment hereunder. Such inventions and
improvements shall belong to the Company whether or not they are patentable and
whether or not patent applications are filed thereon. Such transfer shall
include all patent rights (if any) to such inventions or improvements in the
United States and in all foreign countries. Executive further agrees, at the
request of Company, to execute and deliver, at any time during the term of his
employment hereunder or after termination thereof, all assignments and other
lawful papers (which will be prepared at the Company's expense) relating to any
aspect of the prosecution of such patent applications and rights in the United
States and foreign countries.

6. EXPOSURE TO PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.

      (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that during the course of his
employment by Company, he will be in continuous contact with customers,
suppliers and others doing business with the Company throughout the world.
Executive further acknowledges that the performance of his duties hereunder will
expose him to data and information concerning the business and affairs of the
Company, including but not limited to information relative to the Company's
proprietary rights and technology, patents, financial statements, sales
programs, pricing programs, profitability analyses and profit margin
information, customer buying patterns, needs and inventory levels, supplier
identities and other related matters, and that all of such data and information
(collectively "the Proprietary Information") is vital, sensitive, confidential
and proprietary to Company.

      (b) In recognition of the special nature of his employment hereunder,
including but not limited to his special access to the Proprietary Information,
and in consideration of his employment, Executive agrees to the covenants and
restrictions set forth in paragraphs 7 through 9 inclusive hereof. As used in
this Agreement, the term "Company" shall include, where applicable, any parent,
subsidiary, sub-subsidiary, or affiliate of Company.

7. USE OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Executive acknowledges that the Proprietary
Information constitutes a protectible business interest of Company, and
covenants and agrees that during the term of his employment hereunder and after
the termination of such employment, he shall not, directly or indirectly,
whether individually, as a director, stockholder, owner, partner, employee or
agent of any business, or in any other capacity, make known, disclose, furnish,
make available or utilize any of the Proprietary Information, other than in the
proper performance of his duties during the term of his employment hereunder.
Executive's obligations under this paragraph with respect to particular
Proprietary Information shall terminate only at such time (if any) as the
Proprietary Information in question becomes generally known to the public other
than through a breach of Executive's obligations hereunder.

8. RESTRICTION AGAINST COMPETITION AND EMPLOYING OR SOLICITING COMPANY
EMPLOYEES, CUSTOMERS OR SUPPLIERS. Executive covenants and agrees that during
the term hereof and for the one (1) year period immediately following the
effective date of any termination of his employment hereunder (the "Termination
Date"), he shall not, directly or indirectly, whether individually, as a
director, stockholder, partner, owner, employee or agent of any business, or in
any other capacity, (i) engage in a business substantially similar to that which
is conducted by the Company in any market area in which such business is
operated; (ii) solicit any party who is or was a customer or supplier of the
Company on the Termination Date or at any time during the six month period
immediately prior thereto for the sale or purchase of any type or quantity of
products sold by or used in the business of the Company on the Termination Date
or at any time within such six month period; or (iii) solicit for employment any
person who was or is an employee of the Company on the Termination Date or at
any time during the twelve month period immediately prior thereto.

9. RETURN OF COMPANY MATERIALS UPON TERMINATION. Executive acknowledges that all
price lists, sales manuals, catalogs, binders, customer lists and other customer
information, supplier lists, financial information, and other records or
documents containing Proprietary Information prepared by Executive or coming
into his possession by virtue of his employment by the Company is and shall
remain the property of the Company and that upon termination of his employment
hereunder, Executive shall return immediately to the Company all such items in
his possession, together with all copies thereof.

10. EQUITABLE REMEDIES.

                                       74
<PAGE>

      (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in
paragraphs 5 through 9 inclusive hereof are reasonable and necessary for the
protection of the Company's business interests, that irreparable injury will
result to the Company if Executive breaches any of the terms of said covenants,
and that in the event of Executive's actual or threatened breach of any such
covenants, the Company will have no adequate remedy at law. Executive
accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by him
of any of said covenants, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive
and other equitable relief, without bond and without the necessity of showing
actual monetary damages. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as
prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for
such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any damages which it
is able to prove.

      (b) Each of the covenants in paragraphs 5 through 9 inclusive hereof shall
be construed as independent of any other covenants or other provisions of this
Agreement.

      (c) In the event of any judicial determination that any of the covenants
set forth in paragraphs 5 through 9 inclusive hereof is not fully enforceable,
it is the intention and desire of the parties that the court treat said
covenants as having been modified to the extent deemed necessary by the court to
render them reasonable and enforceable, and that the court enforce them to such
extent.

11. LIFE INSURANCE. The Company may at its discretion and at any time apply for
and procure as owner and for its own benefit and at its own expense, insurance
on the life of Executive in such amounts and in such form or forms as the
Company may choose. Executive shall cooperate with the Company in procuring such
insurance and shall, at the request of Company, submit to such medical
examinations, supply such information and execute such documents as may be
required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Company has applied
for such insurance. Executive shall have no interest whatsoever in any such
policy or policies, except that, upon the termination of Executive's employment
hereunder, Executive shall have the privilege of purchasing any such insurance
from the Company for an amount equal to the actual premiums thereon previously
paid by Company.

12. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been properly given if in writing and when
sent by United States mail, certified or registered, postage prepaid, when sent
by facsimile or when personally delivered, addressed as follows:

                             KENSEY NASH CORPORATION
                   TERMINATION AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT

      This TERMINATION AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is
entered into effective as of the 1st day of June 2004, by and between Kensey
Nash Corporation (the "Company") and Joseph W. Kaufmann (the "Executive").

      WHEREAS, the Executive is employed by the Company and the Executive has
made valuable contributions to the strategic planning, business operations and
financial strength of the Company; and

      WHEREAS, the Company has determined that the Executive and the
availability of his future services are critical to the future success of the
Company; and

      WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide fair and reasonable protections to
the Executive on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the continued
employment of the Executive, the Company and the Executive, each intending to be
legally bound hereby, covenant and agree as follows:

1.    The Company shall employ the Executive and Executive shall serve as the
      Company's Chief Operating Officer with the attendant responsibilities
      thereto. The Executive shall receive base compensation in the amount in
      effect as of the date of this Agreement, or Executive's most recent per
      annum base salary, whichever is greater, and be covered by and receive the
      benefits of those plans and programs providing other non-regular cash
      compensation and benefits under the terms and conditions in effect as of
      the date of this agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to
      supersede or otherwise limit the rights of the Executive to any amounts to
      which the Executive is entitled under any other agreement, plan, fund or
      program covering the Executive.

2.    In the event, following a Change in Control, the Company terminates the
      Executive's employment for a reason other than "Cause" (as defined herein)
      or the Executive quits his employment with the Company for "Good Reason"
      (as defined herein), the Executive shall be entitled to receive severance
      pay (the "Severance") equal to his regular base salary, or most recent per
      annum base salary whichever is greater, for a period of twenty-four (24)
      months (the "Payment Period"). Such Severance shall be in addition to any
      other compensation or benefits to which the Executive may be entitled
      under any other plan, program or payroll practice of the Company.

      Severance shall be paid in accordance with the Company's regular payroll
      practices as in effect at the time of payment and shall be subject to
      regular tax and other withholdings in effect with respect to the
      Executive's compensation prior to the Payment Period.

      The Company shall continue to provide Executive, during the Payment
      Period, with benefits no less favorable than those provided by the Company
      to senior executives of the Company during the six-month period prior to
      the Change in Control. In addition, the Executive shall be entitled to
      receive a payment in an amount equal to two (2) times the average of his
      or her last two annual bonus payments earned, and such payment shall be
      issued no later than 60 days after Executive's Termination Date (as
      defined herein).

      The Company, however, shall not be required to provide additional accruals
      or contributions under any retirement plan qualified under Section 401(a)
      of the Internal Revenue Code.

      Severance shall terminate upon the death of Executive during the Payment
      Period.

3.    Upon a Change in Control, vesting of all unvested options granted to
      Executive shall accelerate such that Executive shall be immediately one
      hundred percent (100%) vested in all options awarded. Following a Change
      in Control, in the event of Executive's termination without cause or
      Executive's resignation for "Good Reason," options to purchase shares of
      common stock shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year from
      the date of such termination. The Company shall also pay the Executive any
      "Gross-Up Payments" as required under the Executive's employment agreement
      with the Company.

4.    All Benefits specified above are conditioned upon the Executive refraining
      from "Competition" with the Company and its affiliates during the twelve
      months after Executive ceases to be employed by the Company. If at any
      time

                                       78
<PAGE>

      prior to the end of such twelve-month period, the Company determines that
      the Executive is engaging in Competition, the Company shall have the right
      to immediately suspend further payments hereunder.

      If the Executive engages in Competition at any time during the twelve
      month period, the Executive shall return all Benefits paid hereunder, and
      the Company shall be entitled to enforce the return of any Benefits
      previously paid.

      The Executive shall have the right to appeal any benefit suspension or
      request for return of benefits to the Board of Directors of the Company
      and, if it is determined that the Executive has not engaged in
      Competition, payment of all amounts due and unpaid shall be made as soon
      as reasonably practicable after such determination.

5.    The Benefits under this Agreement shall be unfunded, and the Company's
      obligation under this Agreement shall constitute an unsecured promise of
      severance pay.

6.    This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Pennsylvania. If under
      governing law, any portion of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, the
      invalidity of such portion shall not affect the force, effect and validity
      of any remaining portion of this Agreement.

7.    For purposes of this Agreement, the following definitions shall apply:

      "Cause" means any circumstance in which the Executive has been (i)
      convicted of a felony; or any circumstance in which the Company reasonably
      concludes that Executive's conduct with regard to the Company constitutes
      (ii) fraud or willful misconduct, (iii) a material breach of fiduciary
      duty involving personal profit, or (iv) a material and continuing failure
      to perform stated duties.

      "Change in Control." For the purpose of this Agreement, a "Change in
      Control" shall occur if:

      (a)   any individual, partnership, firm, corporation, association, trust,
            unincorporated organization or other entity, or any syndicate or
            group deemed to be a person under Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange
            Act (other than shareholders holding more than 20% of the Company's
            voting securities as of the Effective Date), is or becomes the
            "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the General Rules
            and Regulations under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
            securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the combined
            voting power of the company's then outstanding securities entitled
            to vote in the election of directors of the Company; or

      (b)   during any period of two consecutive years (not including any period
            prior to the Effective Date of this Plan) individuals who at the
            beginning of such period constituted the Board of Directors and any
            new directors, whose election by the Board of Directors or
            nomination for election by the stockholders of the Company was
            approved by a vote of at least three quarters of the directors then
            still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the
            period or whose election or nomination was previously so approved,
            cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof; or

      (c)   all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are liquidated
            or distributed.

      "Competition" means, for the Payment Period, (i) employment by, being a
      consultant to, being an officer or director of, or being connected in any
      manner with, any entity or person in the business of the Company or any
      affiliate which competes in any market in which the Company does business,
      either directly or indirectly, (ii) disclosing, using, transferring or
      selling to any such entity any confidential or proprietary information of
      the Company or any affiliate, (iii) soliciting, attempting to solicit an
      employee or former employee of the Company, (iv) diverting or attempting
      to divert any business or customer of the Company or any affiliate, or (v)
      refusing to cooperate with the Company or any affiliate by making himself
      available to assist the Company or any affiliate in, or testify on behalf
      of the Company or any affiliate in any action, suit, or proceeding,
      whether civil, criminal or administrative.

      "Good Reason" means (i) reduction in the compensation (regular or bonus
      compensation formula) of the Executive as in effect as of the date of the
      Change in Control, (ii) substantial reduction in the Executive's
      responsibilities as in effect as of the date of the Change in Control,
      (iii) any failure of the Company to obtain assumption of the obligation to
      perform this Agreement by any successor, assignee or distributee of a
      majority of the Company's stock or assets (iv) a relocation of the
      Executive's location of employment more than 50 miles from the location as
      of the date of the Change in Control, or (v) adoption or approval of a
      plan of liquidation, dissolution, or reorganization of the Company by the
      Board of Directors.

      "Termination Date" means: (i) if the Executive is terminated by the
      Company, the date on which the Executive is notified by the Company, (ii)
      if the Executive quits, the date on which the Executive notifies the
      Company.

8.    Executive agrees, as a condition to the receipt of Severance provided for
      in this Agreement, that he will execute a release agreement, in a form
      satisfactory to the Company, releasing any and all claims arising out of
      Executive's employment, except for any claims pursuant to such other
      agreements, plans, funds or programs as referenced in Section 1 of this
      Agreement.

9.    Neither the terms of this Agreement nor the rights and obligations which
      it describes shall be assignable by Executive. The Company, however, may
      assign this Agreement and the Company's rights and obligations as
      described herein, and shall assign this Agreement to any successor which,
      by operation of law or otherwise, continues to carry on substantially the
      business of the Company.

10.   Subject to the rights, benefits and obligations provided for in any other
      agreement, plan, program or payroll practice, this Agreement constitutes
      the entire agreement between the Company and the Executive regarding this
      topic, and no waiver of any provision shall be effective unless in writing
      and signed by the Company and the Executive.
