such other appropriately authorized or designated executive officer of the Company. 
  

	 	2.	Extent of Employment 

  
 (a) During the Term of Employment, Executive shall perform his obligations hereunder faithfully and to the best of his ability under the direction of the
Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Board of Directors of the Company, or such other appropriately authorized or designated executive officer of the Company, and shall abide by the rules, customs and usages from time to time
established by the Company. 
  
 (b) During the Term of Employment,
Executive shall devote all of his business time, energy and skill as may be reasonably necessary for the performance of his duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement (except for vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness

 (c) Nothing contained herein shall require Executive to follow any directive or to perform any act which would violate any laws, ordinances, regulations
or rules of any governmental, regulatory or administrative body, agent or authority, any court or judicial authority, or any public, private or industry regulatory authority. Executive shall act in accordance with the laws, ordinances, regulations
or rules of any governmental, 

  

 
regulatory or administrative body, agent or authority, any court or judicial authority, or any public, private or industry regulatory authority. 

 

	 	3.	Term of Employment; Termination 

  
 (a) The “Term of Employment” shall commence on January 1, 2004 and shall continue through December 31, 2005 (the “Initial Term”),
subject to automatic annual renewal for one-year terms thereafter (the “Additional Term”), unless either the Company or Executive notifies the other party of its intent not to renew at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial
Term or Additional Term as the case may be. Should Executive’s employment by the Company be earlier terminated pursuant to Section 3(b), the Term of Employment shall end on the date of such earlier termination. 
  
 (b) Subject to the payments contemplated by Section 3(d), the Term of
Employment may be terminated at any time by the Company: 
  
 (i) upon the death of Executive; 
  
 (ii) in the event that because of physical or mental disability, Executive is unable to perform and does not perform his duties hereunder, for a continuous period of 90 days, and an experienced, recognized physician
specializing in such disabilities certifies as to the foregoing in writing; 
  
 (iii) for Cause or Material Breach (each as defined in Section 3(d)); 
  
 (iv) upon the continuous poor or unacceptable performance of Executive’s duties to the Company, in the sole judgment of the Board of

 (v) for any other reason not referred to in clauses (i)
through (iv), or for no reason, such that this Agreement shall be construed as terminable at will by the Company. Executive acknowledges that no representations or promises have been made concerning the grounds for termination or the future
operation of the Company’s business, and that nothing contained herein or otherwise stated by or on behalf of the Company modifies or amends the right of the Company to terminate Executive at any time, with or without Material Breach or Cause.
Termination shall become effective upon the delivery by the Company to Executive of notice specifying such termination and the reasons therefor, subject to the requirements for advance notice and an opportunity to cure provided in this Agreement, if

in Executive’s authority, perquisites, position, title or responsibilities (other than such a reduction by the Company because of a temporary illness or disability or such a reduction which affects all of the Company’s senior executives on

Agreement, in each case, after 30 days’ prior written notice by Executive to the Company and its Board of Directors and the Company’s failure thereafter to cure such reduction or violation within such 30 days; or 
  
 (iv) voluntarily or for any reason not referred to in
clauses (i) through (iii), or for no reason, in each case, after 90 days’ prior written notice to the Company and its Board of Directors.

and Material Breach within those 30 days. 
  
 (i)
In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 3(b)(i) [death], 3(b)(ii) [disability] or 3(b)(v) [any other reason or no reason] or 3(c)(i) [death], 3(c)(ii) [disability] or 3(c)(iii) [material reduction], the Company

required by this Section 3(d)(i), such payments will constitute severance and liquidated damages, and the Company will not be obligated to pay any further amounts to Executive under this Agreement or otherwise be liable to Executive in connection
with any termination. 
  
 (ii) In the event
Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii) [Cause or Material Breach], 3(b)(iv) [poor performance], or 3(c)(iv) [voluntary], the Company will not be obligated to pay any further amounts to Executive under this Agreement.

  
 (iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of
paragraphs (i) and (ii) above, in the event Executive’s employment is terminated within twelve months following a Change in Control pursuant to Section 3(b)(v) [by the Company for any other reason or no reason] or Section 3(c)(iii) [by the

3(d)(i). Moreover, in the event that Executive is employed by or engaged in a Competitive Business as contemplated by Section 8(a)(i), then the Company will thereupon no longer be obligated to make payments under Section 3(d)(i). 
  
 (f) In the event the Term of Employment is terminated and the Company is
obligated to make payments pursuant to Section 3(d)(i), Executive hereby waives any and all claims against the Company and its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, or representatives, stockholders and affiliates relating to his

	 	6.	Benefits 

  
 During the Term of Employment, Executive shall be entitled to benefits (including health, disability, pension and life insurance benefits consistent with
Company policy, or as increased from time to time), in each case, in accordance with guidelines or established from time to time, by the Board of Directors for senior executives of the Company. 
  

	 	7.	Confidential Information 

  
 (a) Executive acknowledges that his employment hereunder gives him access to Confidential Information relating to the Company’s Business and its
customers which must remain confidential. Executive acknowledges that this information is valuable, special, and a unique asset of the Company’s Business, and that it has been and will be developed by the Company at considerable effort and
expense, and if it were to be known and used by others engaged in a Competitive Business, it would be harmful and detrimental to the interests of the Company. In consideration of the foregoing, Executive hereby agrees and covenants that, during and
after the Term of Employment, Executive will not, directly or indirectly in one or a series of transactions, disclose to any person, or use or otherwise exploit for Executive’s own benefit or for the benefit of anyone other than the Companies,
Confidential Information (as defined in Section 10), whether prepared by Executive or not; provided, however, that any Confidential Information may be disclosed to officers, representatives, employees and agents of the Companies who need to know
such Confidential Information in order to perform the services or conduct the operations required or expected of them in the Business (as defined in Section 10). Executive shall use his best efforts to prevent the removal of any Confidential
Information from the premises of the Companies, except as required in his normal course of employment by the Company. Executive shall use his best efforts to cause all persons or entities to whom any Confidential Information shall be disclosed by
him hereunder to observe the terms and conditions set forth herein as though each such person or entity was bound hereby. Executive shall have no obligation hereunder to keep confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure
of any thereof is specifically required by law; provided, however, in the event disclosure is required by applicable law, Executive shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement, prior to making any disclosure, so that the Company
may seek an appropriate protective order. At the request of the Company, Executive agrees to deliver to the Company, at any time during the Term of Employment, or thereafter, all Confidential Information which he may possess or control. Executive
agrees that all Confidential Information of the Companies (whether now or hereafter existing) conceived, discovered or made by him during the Term of Employment exclusively belongs to the Companies (and not to Executive). Executive will promptly
disclose such Confidential Information to the Company and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Company to establish and confirm such exclusive ownership. 
  
 (b) In the event that Executive breaches his obligations in any material respect under this Section 7, the Company, in
addition to pursuing all available remedies under 

  

 6 

 
this Agreement, at law or otherwise, and without limiting its right to pursue the same shall cease all payments to Executive under this Agreement.

  
 (c) The terms of this Section 7 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement regardless of who terminates this Agreement or the reasons therefor. 
  

	 	8.	Non-Interference 

  
 (a) Executive acknowledges that the services to be provided give him the opportunity to have special knowledge of the Company and its Confidential
Information and the capabilities of individuals employed by or affiliated with the Company, and that interference in these relationships would cause irreparable injury to the Company. In consideration of this Agreement, Executive covenants and
agrees that: 
  
 (i) During the Restricted Period
(which shall not include any period of violation of this Agreement by the Executive), Executive will not, without the express written approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, anywhere in the Market, directly or indirectly, in one or a
series of transactions, own, manage, operate, control, invest or acquire an interest in, or otherwise engage or participate in, whether as a proprietor, partner, stockholder, lender, director, officer, employee, joint venturer, investor, lessor,
supplier, customer, agent, representative or other participant, in any Competitive Business without regard to (A) whether the Competitive Business has its office, manufacturing or other business facilities within or without the Market, (B) whether
any of the activities of Executive referred to above occur or are performed within or without the Market or (C) whether Executive resides, or reports to an office, within or without the Market; provided, however, that (x) Executive may, anywhere in
the Market, directly or indirectly, in one or a series of transactions, own, invest or acquire an interest in up to five percent (5%) of the capital stock of a corporation whose capital stock is traded publicly, or that (y) Executive may accept
employment with a successor company to the Company. 
  
 (ii) During the Restricted Period (which shall not include any period of violation of this Agreement by Executive), Executive will not without the express prior written approval of the Board of Directors of the Company (A) directly or
indirectly, in one or a series of transactions, recruit, solicit or otherwise induce or influence any proprietor, partner, stockholder, lender, director, officer, employee, sales agent, joint venturer, investor, lessor, supplier, customer, agent,
representative or any other person which has a business relationship with the Company or had a business relationship with the Company within the twenty-four (24) month period preceding the date of the incident in question, to discontinue, reduce or
modify such employment, agency or business relationship with the Company, or (B) employ or seek to employ or cause any Competitive Business to employ or seek to employ any person or 

  

 7 

 
agent who is then (or was at any time within six months prior to the date Executive or the Competitive Business employs or seeks to employ such person)
employed or retained by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Executive from providing a letter of recommendation to an employee with respect to a future employment opportunity. 
  
 (iii) The scope and term of this Section 8 would not
preclude him from earning a living with an entity that is not a Competitive Business. 
  
 (b) The terms of this Section 8 shall survive termination of this Agreement regardless of who terminates this Agreement or the reasons therefor. 
  

	 	9.	Inventions

the Company, which invention, improvement or discovery is related to any of the lines of business or work of the Companies, any projected or potential activities which the Companies have investigated or hereinafter investigates, or which result from
or are suggested by any service performed by Executive for the Company, whether patentable or not, shall be promptly and fully disclosed by Executive to the Company. Executive assigns each such invention, improvement or discovery, and the patents
thereof, or related thereto, to the Company. Executive shall, during the term of his employment with the Company and thereafter without charge to the Company, but at the request and expense of the Company, assist the Company in obtaining or vesting
in itself patents upon such improvements and inventions. All such inventions, improvements or discoveries shall at all times become and remain the exclusive property of the Company. Executive represents that he does not claim ownership of any
inventions, improvements, formulae or discoveries which are excluded from this Agreement. 
  
 (b) In the event that Executive breaches his obligations in any material respect under Sections 7, 8 or this Section 9, the Company, in addition to pursuing all available remedies under this Agreement, at law or

amend or supplement any provision of the Credit Agreement other than as expressly set forth herein. 
  
 5. Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective as of the date hereof upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of this
