                                 PROMISSORY NOTE
                                 ---------------

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ULTRALIFE BATTERIES, INC., a Delaware corporation
with offices at 2000 Technology Parkway, Newark, New York 14513 (the "Company"),
hereby promises to pay to the order of [NAME OF PAYEE], who has an address of
[ADDRESS OF PAYEE], or registered assigns ("Holder") the principal sum of Three
Million Two Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,237,500), or
such lesser principal amount to which this Amended and Restated Note shall have
been adjusted in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement (as
defined below), together with interest thereon calculated from the date hereof,
in accordance with the provisions of this Amended and Restated Note.

<PAGE>

         This Amended and Restated Note originated from a distribution and
splitting up of the subordinated convertible promissory note that was originally
issued on July 3, 2006 pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of May
1, 2006 (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among the McDowell Research, Ltd.,
Thomas Hauke, Earl Martin, Sr., James Evans, Frank Alexander, the Company and MR
Acquisition Corporation and the applicable provisions thereof, as may be amended
by the Settlement Agreement (as defined below), are hereby incorporated herein
in full by reference. The principal amount of this Amended and Restated Note
reflects adjustments that have been made in accordance with that certain
Settlement Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among MRC Chargers,
Ltd., Frank Alexander, James Evans, Thomas Hauke, Earl Martin, Sr., Gloria
Martin, Lillian Hauke, the Company and McDowell Research Co., Inc. (the
"Settlement Agreement"). The Purchase Agreement contains terms governing the
rights of the Holder of this Amended and Restated Note and the Holder is
entitled to the benefits thereof. All capitalized terms used herein and not
otherwise defined shall have the meanings given thereto in the Purchase
Agreement.

         1. Interest. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, interest
shall accrue from July 1, 2007 through and including the date hereof on the
original unpaid principal amount of $4,625,000 outstanding at the rate of four
percent (4%) per annum. Commencing on the day after the date hereof, interest
shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Amended and Restated Note
outstanding until such time as payment thereof is actually delivered to the
Holder (including after acceleration, maturity or judgment) at the rate of five
percent (5%) per annum. All interest shall be calculated on the basis of actual
days elapsed divided by a 360 day year.

         Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at Holder's option interest
on the outstanding principal hereunder shall accrue at a rate per annum from
time to time equal to the rate of interest then in effect on this Amended and
Restated Note plus two percent (2%) per annum. Any increase in the interest rate
shall be in addition to the Holder's other available remedies.

         2. Payments. Interest shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears of
each year that this Amended and Restated Note is outstanding, commencing on
October 1, 2007 and continuing on the first day of each calendar quarter
thereafter until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on
the Maturity Date hereof.

All unpaid accrued interest and all outstanding principal shall be due and
payable in full on July 3, 2011 (the "Maturity Date")

         3. Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayments. This Amended and Restated Note
may be prepaid by the Company in whole or in part at any time after sixty (60)
days prior written notice to Holder (during which period Holder may exercise its
conversion rights hereunder). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding
sentence, the Company shall, on or before November 18, 2007, make a prepayment
of Six Hundred Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($612,500) on the
outstanding principal amount hereof.

<PAGE>

         4.       Conversion Rights.

                  (a) The Holder may convert the outstanding principal amount of
this Amended and Restated Note (or a portion of such outstanding principal
amount as provided in Section 4(c)) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock of the Company (the "Conversion Shares") at any time, and from time
to time, prior to the time the outstanding principal amount of this Amended and
Restated Note is paid in full (subject to the notice periods and conversion
rights related thereto described elsewhere in this Amended and Restated Note),
at the Conversion Price (defined below) then in effect (collectively, the
"Conversion Rights"); provided, however, that if the closing price of the
Company's Common Stock as quoted on Nasdaq on the Closing Date is greater than
$12.00 per share, then the Holder will be precluded from exercising the
conversion rights under this Amended and Restated Note until the first
anniversary date of this Amended and Restated Note. The initial per share
conversion price (the "Conversion Price") shall be Fifteen and no/100 Dollars
($15.00). The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment as provided in Section
5.

                  (b) The provisions of this Amended and Restated Note that
apply to conversion of the outstanding principal amount of this Amended and
Restated Note also apply to a partial conversion of this Amended and Restated
Note. The Holder is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Conversion Shares
until the Holder has converted this Amended and Restated Note (or a portion
thereof) into Conversion Shares, and only to the extent that this Amended and
Restated Note is deemed to have been converted into Conversion Shares under this
Section 4.

                  (c) To convert all or a portion of this Amended and Restated
Note, the Holder must (a) complete and sign a notice of election to convert
substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto (each, a "Conversion Notice"), (b)
surrender this Amended and Restated Note to the Company, and (c) furnish
appropriate endorsements or transfer documents if required by the Company. The
date on which the Holder satisfies all of such requirements is the conversion
date (the "Conversion Date"). As soon as practicable, and in any event within
ten (10) business days after the Conversion Date, the Company will deliver, or
cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate for the number of whole
Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion and a check for any fractional
Conversion Share determined pursuant to Section 4(d). The person in whose name
the certificate for Conversion Shares is to be registered shall become the
stockholder of record on the Conversion Date and, as of the Conversion Date, the
rights of the Holder as to this Amended and Restated Note shall cease as to the
portion thereof so converted; provided, however, that no surrender of a Amended
and Restated Note on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall
be closed shall be effective to constitute the person entitled to receive the
Conversion Shares upon such conversion as the stockholder of record of such
Conversion Shares on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to
constitute the person entitled to receive such Conversion Shares as the
stockholder of record thereof for all purposes at the close of business on the
next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open; provided
further that such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the
date that this Amended and Restated Note shall have been surrendered for
conversion, as if the stock transfer books of the Company had not been closed.

<PAGE>

         In the case of a partial conversion of this Amended and Restated Note,
upon such conversion, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder, at
the expense of the Company, a new Amended and Restated Note in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the principal amount.

                  (d) No fractional Conversion Shares shall be issued upon
exercise of the Conversion Rights. Instead of any fractional Conversion Share
which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of this Amended and Restated
Note, the Company shall calculate and pay a cash adjustment in respect of such
fraction (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share) in an amount equal to
the same fraction of the Conversion Price at the close of business on the
Conversion Date.

                  (e) The issuance of certificates for Conversion Shares upon
exercise of any of the Conversion Rights shall be made without charge to the
Holder for such certificates or for any tax in respect of the issuance of such
certificates, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of, or in such
names as may be directed by, the Holder; provided, however, that in the event
that certificates for Conversion Shares are to be issued in a name or names
other than the name of the Holder, such Amended and Restated Note, when
surrendered for conversion, shall be accompanied by an instrument of transfer,
in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the Holder or his duly
authorized attorney; and provided further, moreover, that the Company shall not
be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name or
names other than that of the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to
issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons
requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of
such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such
tax has been paid or is not applicable.

                  (f) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available,
free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock,
solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Amended and Restated
Note, the full number of Conversion Shares then issuable upon the conversion in
full of this Amended and Restated Note.

         If the Company or an affiliate of the Company shall at any time after
the date hereof and prior to the conversion of this Amended and Restated Note in
full issue any rights to subscribe for shares of Common Stock or any other
securities of the Company or of such affiliate to all the stockholders of the
Company, the Holder of the unconverted portion of this Amended and Restated Note
shall be entitled, in addition to the shares of Common Stock or other securities
receivable upon the Conversion thereof, to receive such rights at the time such
rights are distributed to the other stockholders of the Company, to be
calculated on an as-converted basis.

<PAGE>

         5. Adjustments to Conversion Rights.

                  (a) General. In order to prevent dilution of the rights
granted under this Amended and Restated Note, the Conversion Price and the
number of Conversion Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided in this Section 5(a). It is the intention of the Company that the
Conversion Price shall at all times be the lower of (i) the Conversion Price on
the date of this Amended and Restated Note and (ii) the Conversion Price
determined by adjustment pursuant to the remainder of this Section 5(a). In the
event that at any time the Common Stock of the Company shall be exchanged for,
or changed into, a different kind and/or a number of shares of stock of the
Company or of another corporation by reason of a merger, consolidation, sale of
assets, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split-up or
combination of shares or otherwise, then, until any further adjustment is
required, there shall be issuable upon the conversion of this Amended and
Restated Note, in lieu of each share of Common Stock of the Company or of any
other stock theretofore issued pursuant to the provisions of this Amended and
Restated Note, the kind and/or number of shares of stock for which each share of
Common Stock of the Company or such other stock shall be so exchanged, or into
which each share of Common Stock of the Company or such other stock shall be so
changed and the Conversion Price shall be automatically adjusted to a new
Conversion Price as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustment in shares
of stock, if by reason of such merger, consolidation, recapitalization,
reclassification or otherwise the number of issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Company shall have been exchanged for or changed into such
new shares on other than a one-to-one basis. No adjustment in the Conversion
Price shall be made for cash dividends on the shares of Common Stock of the
Company or any other stock issued upon any conversion of this Amended and
Restated Note.

                  (b) Notices. Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion
Price, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Holder, setting
forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.

         6. Company Right to Compel Conversion. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Amended and Restated Note, the Company shall have the right,
at the Company's sole discretion, to compel the Holder to convert this Amended
and Restated Note at any time after the 30-day average closing price of the
Company's Common Stock exceeds Seventeen and 50/100 Dollars ($17.50) per share.
In such event, the Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of
conversion, setting forth the basis upon which the conditions to compel the
conversion were satisfied. Thereafter, this Amended and Restated Note shall only
represent the right to receive the Conversion Shares and any accrued but unpaid
interest.

         7. Subordination. The Holder agrees that the payment of the principal
of and the interest on this Amended and Restated Note is expressly subordinated
to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness, to the extent and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Section 7. As used herein, the term "Senior
Indebtedness" shall mean the principal of, the interest on and the premium, if
any, on all indebtedness of the Company for money borrowed by it from any
financial institution including banks, savings institutions or insurance
companies and similar institutional lenders, and all renewals, extensions and
refundings of any such indebtedness, whether such indebtedness shall have been
incurred prior to, on, or subsequent to the date hereof, unless by the terms of
the instruments creating or evidencing any such indebtedness it is provided that
such indebtedness is not to be considered Senior Indebtedness for the purpose of
this Amended and Restated Note.

<PAGE>

                  (a) No interest or principal shall be paid on this Amended and
Restated Note without the consent of the holders of all outstanding Senior
Indebtedness if, at the date fixed herein for such interest or principal
payment, the Company shall be in default of payment of principal or interest
upon such Senior Indebtedness. In the event any payment of interest or principal
hereunder shall be prohibited pursuant to this Section 7(a), such payment shall
be deemed to be deferred until the cure of all defaults in payment of principal
or interest upon the Senior Indebtedness, and the payments hereon so deferred
shall immediately become due and payable upon the cure of such defaults.

                  (b) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation
or reorganization of the Company, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or
receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or
in any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company the
holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in
full of such Senior Indebtedness before the Holder shall be entitled to receive
any payment upon the principal of, the interest on, or the premium, if any, on
the indebtedness evidenced by this Amended and Restated Note. Upon any such
dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization, any payment or
distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
property or securities, to which the Holder would be entitled, except for the
provisions of this Section 7, shall be made by the liquidating trustee or agent
or such person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in
bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the
Holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representatives or to the trustee or
trustees under any indenture or indentures under which any instruments
evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably according
to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the Senior Indebtedness
held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to pay in full all such
Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to all concurrent
payments or distributions with respect to such Senior Indebtedness.

                  (c) In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 7(b), upon any such dissolution, or winding up, liquidation or
reorganization, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind
or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the
Holder before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such payment or
distribution shall be paid over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or
their representatives, ratably as aforesaid, for the application to the payment
of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or
distribution with respect to such Senior Indebtedness.

<PAGE>

                  (d) Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness,
the Holder to the extent permitted by law, shall be subrogated to the rights of
each holder of Senior Indebtedness (to the extent of the payments or
distributions made to such holder pursuant to the provisions of Sections 7(b)
and 7(c)) to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Company
applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of, the interest on,
and the premium, if any, on this Amended and Restated Note shall be paid in
full, and each holder of Senior Indebtedness by accepting such payments or
distributions shall be deemed to have agreed to said subrogation. No payments or
distributions to the Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of Sections
7(b) and 7(c) shall, as between the Company, its creditors, other than the
holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by
the Company to or on account of this Amended and Restated Note, the provisions
of this Section 7 being, and being intended, solely for the purpose of defining
the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the holders of the
Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand; and nothing contained in this Section 7
or elsewhere in this Amended and Restated Note is intended to or shall impair,
as between the Company, the Holder and the other creditors of the Company, other
than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the obligations of the Company, which
is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Holder as and when the same shall
become due and payable in accordance with the terms herein, or to affect the
relative rights of the Holder and the other creditors of the Company, other than
the holders of Senior Indebtedness, or to prevent the Holder from exercising all
of the remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default as provided
for herein, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 7 of the holders
of the Senior Indebtedness in respect of any cash, property or securities of the
Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

                  (e) In the event that this Amended and Restated Note shall be
declared due and payable before the Maturity Date because of the occurrence of a
default hereunder, the Company will give prompt notice in writing of such
happening to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and any and all Senior
Indebtedness shall forthwith become immediately due and payable upon demand by
the respective holders thereof regardless of the express maturity dates thereof

         Without limiting any of the foregoing, this Amended and Restated Note
is further subject to the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement dated as of
July 3, 2006 among JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Manufacturers and Traders Trust
Company, MC Chargers, Ltd., formerly named McDowell Research, Ltd., and the
Company, as amended by an Amendment to Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement
dated as of September __, 2007 among MRC Chargers, Ltd., Frank Alexander, James
Evans, Thomas Hauke, Earl Martin, Sr., Gloria Martin, Lillian Hauke and the
Company (as so amended, the "Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement"),
pursuant to which, among other things, this Amended and Restated Note and the
Company's obligations hereunder are subordinated in the manner and to the extent
set forth in the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement to the prior payment
of certain obligations to the holders of Senior Obligations as defined therein.

         8. Events of Default.

         In the event that there shall be any Event of Default hereunder and
such Event of Default shall remain uncorrected or unremedied for a period of
more than thirty (30) days after the Company shall have received notice of such
Event of Default from the Holder, then the full unpaid principal amount of this
Amended and Restated Note, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, may,
at the option of the Holder, become immediately due and payable without further
notice by the Holder.

<PAGE>

                  (a)      "Event of Default" as used in this Section 8 shall
mean and refer to any of the following:

                  of interest or principal on this Amended and Restated Note
                  when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at
                  maturity, by mandatory prepayment, by call for redemption, by
                  declaration or otherwise;

                           (ii) the failure of the Company, to pay any
                  installment of interest or principal on Senior Indebtedness
                  when and as the same shall become due and payable, unless such
                  payment shall have been deferred or waived by the terms of the
                  instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness or by the
                  holder thereof;

                           (iii) the failure of the Company to observe and
                  perform all of the covenants and agreements on the part of the
                  Company contained herein or in the Asset Purchase Agreement;

                           (iv) failure of any representation or warranty made
                  by the Company in the Asset Purchase Agreement to be truthful,
                  accurate or correct;

                           (v) the adjudication of the Company as a bankrupt by

                  seeking reorganization of the Company under the federal
                  bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law or statute of the

                  jurisdiction;

                           (vi) the appointment by a court of competent
                  jurisdiction of a trustee or receiver or receivers of the
                  Company of all or any substantial part of its property upon
                  the application of any creditor in any insolvency or
                  bankruptcy proceeding or other creditor suit, unless such
                  appointment or decree or order shall be stayed upon appeal or

                  by the Company to the appointment of a receiver or receivers
                  for all or any substantial portion of the property of the

                  laws or any other applicable law or statute of the United
                  States of America or any state thereof or jurisdiction, or the
                  filing by the Company of a petition to take advantage of any
                  debtor's act.

                  (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which shall
remain uncorrected or unremedied for a period of more than thirty (30) days
after the Company shall have received notice of such Event of Default from the
Holder, the Holder shall at all times have the right to institute any suit,
action or proceeding, in equity or at law, for the enforcement of rights as
provided for herein, or in aid of the exercise of any right or power granted

<PAGE>

                  (c) This Amended and Restated Note shall be the obligation of
the Company solely and there shall be no recourse had for the payment thereof or
interest thereon against any stockholder, officer or director of the Company,
either directly or through the Company, by reason of any matter prior to the
delivery of this Amended and Restated Note, or against any present or future
officer or director of the Company, all such liability being expressly released
by the Holder and by any subsequent holders hereof by the acceptance hereof and
as part of the consideration for the issuance thereof.

         The Holder shall also have any other rights which the Holder may have
been afforded under any contract or agreement at any time and any other rights
which such holder may have pursuant to applicable law. The Company hereby waives
diligence, presentment and protest and expressly agrees that this Amended and
Restated Note, or any payment hereunder, may be extended from time to time and
that the Holder may accept security for this Amended and Restated Note or
release security for this Amended and Restated Note, all without in any way
affecting the liability of the Company hereunder.

         9. Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
the provisions of this Amended and Restated Note may be amended and the Company
may take any action herein prohibited; or omit to perform any act herein

RE: SEPARATION AGREEMENT

Dear Tom: 

This letter will confirm the agreement (hereinafter referred to as the "Separation Agreement" or "Agreement") between you and American Mold Guard, Inc. ("AMG" or the "Company") regarding your separation from the Company. This Separation Agreement supercedes all previous oral and written agreements regarding your employment with the Company, provided, however, that the terms and conditions of your Employment Agreement dated January 1, 2004 (the "Employment Agreement"), to the degree it does not conflict with the terms and conditions of this Separation Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect.

1.SEPARATION.   We agree that your date of separation from employment with the Company will be October 4, 2007 (the "Separation Date") and, effective as of the Separation Date, you hereby resign from your positions as an officer, director and/or manager of the Company and any of the Company's subsidiaries. 

2.SEPARATION RIGHTS AND BENEFITS.   Conditioned on your execution of a full release and waiver of claims in the form of the Settlement and Release attached hereto as Exhibit A, you will be entitled to the following:  

(a)Health Benefits.  Medical, dental and vision coverage will be provided to you at Company expense under the standard terms of COBRA for a period of twelve (12) months after the Separation Date, provided that you are not eligible for benefits from a new employer. In the event that you become covered under another employer's group health plan, you will promptly notify the Company's Chief Financial Officer and the Company will cease COBRA coverage. After the period of Company paid COBRA benefits, you will have the option of continuing your COBRA coverage period of eighteen months from the Separation Date, subject to the standard terms of COBRA.

(b)Automobile Usage.  Use of one Company automobile (a 2006 Ford Expedition, VIN # IFMFU17536LA91936) currently in your possession for a period of twelve (12) months after the Separation Date.

(c)Equity Incentive Awards.  All outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock purchase rights, restricted stock rights and any similar rights that you hold that are fully vested and exercisable on the Separation Date may be exercised by you within twelve (12) months after the Separation Date. Any and all stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock purchase rights, restricted stock rights and any similar rights that you hold that are not fully vested and exercisable on the Separation Date shall be terminated and canceled.

(d)Personal Effects.   The Company shall permit you a reasonable period of time, not to exceed five (5) days, after the Separation Date to remove all of your personal files and personal effects from the Company's office.

3.NON-SOLICITATION.   During the two (2)-year period commencing with the Separation Date, you will not, directly, or indirectly, solicit, entice, persuade, induce or influence any individual who is an employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company or to become employed by any other individual or entity, and you shall not approach any such employee for any such purpose. Any breach of the terms of this paragraph shall result in your automatic forfeiture of the separation benefits set forth in paragraph 2 above.

 

4.TRADE SECRETS, CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND CORPORATE PROPERTY. 

(a)   You agree that you will not at any time use, divulge or convey any secret or confidential information, knowledge, or data of the Company or its affiliates, including information, knowledge or data of third parties as to which the Company or its affiliates is under an obligation of confidentiality (as, for example, information supplied to allow the Company to evaluate a potential acquisition), obtained by you in the course of your activities as a director, officer or employee of the Company except where required to do so by a court of law, by a governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Company or by any administrative or legislative body with apparent jurisdiction over you to order you to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information. Such information, knowledge or data includes, but is not limited to, secret or confidential matters (i) of a technical nature such as, but not limited to, methods, know-how, formulae, compositions, process, discoveries, machines, inventions, computer programs and similar items or research projects, (ii) of a business nature such as, but not limited to, information about cost, purchasing, profits, market, sales or lists of customers, strategic planning documentation, reports or training manuals and (iii) pertaining to future developments such as, but not limited to, research and development of future marketing or merchandising ("Confidential Information"). Such Confidential Information does not include information, knowledge or data that becomes publicly known other than through a breach of this Agreement by you.

(b)   You represent that you have returned or will immediately return to the Company all Confidential Information, and you will not retain any copies, reproductions or excerpts thereof, which you received or prepared or helped prepare in connection with your employment by the Company, and other technical, business or financial information or trade secrets the use or disclosure of which might reasonably be construed to be contrary to the interests of the Company.  You further represent that you have returned or will immediately return to the Company all other Company property such as credit cards and door and file keys.

 

5.COMPANY RELEASE.   The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and discharges you and your heirs, successors, and assigns (separately and collectively, "releasees"), jointly and individually, from any and all claims, known or unknown, which it, its past and present subsidiaries, divisions, officers, directors, agents, employees, successors, and assigns have or may have against releasees and any and all liability which releasees may have to it, whether denominated claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages or liabilities arising from any and all bases, however denominated, provided, however, that this release does not affect any claims which are based on releasees' willful acts, gross negligence or dishonesty in the performance of duties as an employee of the Company, nor any claims which may arise after the execution of this Agreement. The Company further agrees that it will not file or permit to be filed on its behalf any claim against you which is released hereby. 

 

6.NO LAWSUITS.   You represent that you have not filed against the Company or the Company's subsidiaries or affiliates, any complaints, charges or lawsuits arising out of your employment by the Company, or any other matter arising on or prior to the Separation Date. You covenant and agree that you will not seek recovery against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates arising out of any of the matters set forth in this paragraph or in the Settlement and Release attached hereto as Exhibit A.

7.NON-DISCLOSURE.   Unless otherwise required to do so by law, subpoena or court order, you will not in any way communicate or discuss the terms of this Separation Agreement or the circumstances of its execution with any person, other than your attorneys or authorized Company personnel, said personnel to be explicitly designated by an authorized representative of the Company. You understand that this nondisclosure provision applies particularly to current and former employees of the Company and the Company's customers, clients and vendors. 

8.NO ADVERSE COMMENT.   You agree that for a period of two (2) years following the Separation Date, you will not, except as specifically required by law or court process or consented to in writing by the Company, (i) communicate to any person or entity any adverse information, written or oral, concerning the Company, its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or advisers (including any communication concerning information that relates to the business, operations, prospects or affairs of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) under the circumstances in which there is a reasonable possibility that such information might be publicly reported or disclosed or otherwise made available to third parties (regardless of whether the communication of such information is intended to have or cause that result is within your control), or (ii) provide to any person (other than your attorney or accountant) or entity any information that concerns or relates to the negotiations or circumstances leading to the execution of this Separation Agreement. 

9.NON-DISPARAGEMENT.   You and the Company mutually agree that the terms of your termination of employment are amicable and mutually acceptable and each party agrees with the other that neither shall malign, defame, blame, or otherwise disparage the other, either publicly or privately regarding the past or future business or personal affairs of the Company or you, or any other officer, director or employee of the Company. 

10.PRESS RELEASE.   The Company shall consult with you with respect to the language to be used in a press release concerning the subject matter of this Agreement.

11.SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.   You acknowledge and agree that the

Company's remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, you agree that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to cease making any payments or providing any entitlement or benefit otherwise required by this Agreement, and, notwithstanding paragraph 15, shall be entitled to bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of obtaining equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

12.COOPERATION.  You agree to provide reasonable cooperation in connection with any action or proceeding which relates to the Company or any of its affiliates, including without limitation in connection with any litigation and disputes arising out of actions or inactions of the Company or any affiliate of which you have knowledge or information. You further agree to cooperate with the Company in supplying data, information, and expertise within your special knowledge or competence and otherwise assist the Company in the protection of the interests of the Company and its affiliates. The Company shall reimburse you for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (such as hotel and travel expenses) incurred by you in connection with such cooperation following its receipt of your appropriately itemized request.

13.CONSULTATION.   

(a)Consulting Period.  Commencing with the Separation Date and lasting for a period of twelve (12) months (the "Consulting Period"), you will provide services to the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this paragraph 13.

(b)Duties.   You will serve as a non-exclusive consultant to the Company.  You will report only to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  It is anticipated that your consulting services will involve capital structure and other financial related matters and acquisition opportunities affecting the Company as reasonably requested by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and that you shall perform such additional duties as mutually agreed to between you and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  You will devote an amount of time necessary to perform the consulting services reasonably requested by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company hereunder at such times and places as are mutually agreeable to the parties, but in no event shall you be required to provide consulting services that exceed fifteen hours (15) per month.  Except as otherwise agreed to by the parties, the consulting services shall be rendered telephonically when possible and performed during the course of normal business hours.  The Company acknowledges that this Agreement places no limitation on your ability to engage in other activities of your choosing, including without limitation, ownership of, employment with or consulting to any other entities; provided however, that such activities are not violative of paragraph 4 hereof.  As an independent contractor, you will have no authority to legally bind the Company and will not hold yourself out as having such authority.

(c)Compensation.   As compensation for the services to be rendered hereunder, the Company will pay you a consulting fee of $100,000 payable in a single lump sum payment within five (5) days of the date of this Agreement.

 

 

 

(d)Reimbursement of Expenses.   During the Consulting Period and in addition to paragraph 13(c) above, the Company will, upon submission of appropriate documentation, reimburse you for reasonable business expenses for out-of-town travel expenses incurred in connection with the performance of your duties hereunder in accordance with the Company's policies and procedures for out-of-town travel expenses in effect from time to time; provided, however, that any individual expense in excess of $150.00 and all expenses in any month in the aggregate in excess of $300.00 must be approved in writing by the Chief Executive Officer.

(e)Independent Contractor.   Your engagement under paragraph 13 of this Agreement will be as an independent contractor, rather than as an employee of the Company, and, except as otherwise specified herein, you will not be entitled to any benefits available to employees or directors of the Company.  You acknowledge that you will be solely responsible for any federal, state or local income or self employment taxes arising with respect to your consulting fee hereunder.  You also acknowledge that you have no state law workers' compensation rights with respect to the services rendered by you under paragraph 13 of this Agreement.

14.INDEMNITY.   The existing rights of you and obligations of the Company with regard to indemnification of you that are not dependent upon your continued employment or holding an office or directorship with the Company or an affiliate, and the indemnification rights under the Company's current bylaws, shall continue.

15.RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES.   Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration, to be held in Orange County, California in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. All costs and expenses of any arbitration or court proceeding (including fees and disbursements of counsel) shall be borne by the respective party incurring such costs and expenses.

16.ADVICE OF LEGAL COUNSEL.   The Company advises you to consult with an attorney of your choosing prior to signing this Agreement.  You confirm that you have the right and have been given the opportunity to review this Agreement and, specifically, the Settlement and Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, with an attorney of your choice.  You also understand and agree that the Company is under no obligation to offer you the separation benefits set forth in paragraph 2 and that you are under no obligation to consent to the release set forth in the Settlement and Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, and that you have entered into this Agreement and the Settlement and Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A freely and voluntarily.

17.GOVERNING LAW/JURISDICTION.   This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of California without reference to principles of conflict of laws.

18.SEVERABILITY.   In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

19.ENTIRE AGREEMENT.     This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect thereto, including without limitation the Employment Agreement (except as otherwise provided herein).

20.AMENDMENT OR WAIVER.   No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by you and an authorized officer or director of the Company. No waiver by either party of any breach by the other party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time.

EXHIBIT A

SETTLEMENT AND RELEASE

 

1.In exchange for the consideration paid to Thomas Blakeley pursuant to that certain Separation Agreement entered into as of October 4, 2007 by and between American Mold Guard, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company") and Thomas Blakeley ("Employee"), Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and discharges the Company, its past and present subsidiaries, divisions, officers, directors, agents, employees, successors, and assigns (separately and collectively, "releasees") jointly and individually, from any and all claims, known or unknown, which he, his heirs, successors or assigns have or may have against releasees and any and all liability which releasees may have to his whether denominated claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages, or liabilities arising from any and all bases, however denominated, including but not limited to, any claims of discrimination under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ("ADEA"), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Rehabilitation Act, the Family Medical Leave Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991 or any federal or state civil rights act, claims for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, or for damages under any other federal, state or local law, rule or regulation, or common law under any theory, as well as any claim for attorney's fees, costs or expenses under any of these or any other applicable statute, ordinance, regulation or law; provided, however, that this release does not affect (1) any claims for indemnification for acts of Employee which have occurred or may occur as an officer or employee of the Company; or (2) any claims which may arise after the execution of this Release. This Release specifically excepts any claim Employee may wish to make for unemployment compensation, and the Company agrees not to contest any claim made by Employee for unemployment compensation. This release is for any relief, no matter how denominated, including, but not limited to, back pay, front pay, compensatory damages, punitive damages, or damages for pain and suffering. Employee further agrees that he will not file or permit to be filed on his behalf any such claim, will not permit himself to be a member of any class seeking relief against the releasees and will not counsel or assist in the prosecution of claims against the releasees, whether those claims are on behalf of himself or others, unless he is under a court order to do so. 

2.It is the intention of the parties hereto that the agreement set forth in paragraph 1 of this Release be construed in the broadest sense possible, and in furtherance therein the parties hereto expressly waive any and all rights and benefits conferred upon them by the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides as follows:

"A general release does not extend to claims which the 

creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at

the time of executing the release, which if known by 

him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

The Company and Employee each expressly acknowledge the foregoing waiver of the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which was separately bargained for.  The Company and Employee each expressly acknowledge they have been represented by counsel (or have had the ability to retain counsel) in the negotiations culminating in this Release to advise them thereon, that they have been informed of the meaning and effect of each and every provision of this Release and of the meaning and effect of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code.

3.Employee agrees that by signing this Release, he is giving up the right to sue for age discrimination, and that under this Release Employee shall receive consideration to which he is not otherwise entitled, and would not receive but for his release of rights under the ADEA. Employee has up to twenty-one (21) days after delivery of this Release to consider whether to sign this Release. Employee agrees that, after he has signed and delivered this Release to the Company, this Release will not be effective or enforceable until the end of a seven (7) day revocation period beginning the day after the Employee signs this Release, and that Employee will not receive the severance payment due under the Employment Agreement until this seven-day period has expired. During this seven-day period, Employee may revoke this Release, without reason and in his sole judgment, but he may do so only by delivering a written statement of revocation to the Company to the attention of General Counsel. If the Company does not receive a written statement of revocation from Employee by the end of the revocation period, then this Release will become legally enforceable and Employee may not thereafter revoke this Release. 

4.Employee agrees that this Release shall be governed by federal law and the internal laws of the State of California, irrespective of the choice of law rules of any state. 

5.Employee acknowledges that he has been advised by the Company in writing to consult independent counsel of his choice before signing this Release.

6.This Release may be executed in several counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT: 

        Employee's signature below acknowledges that he has read this document fully, that he understands and agrees to its contents, that he understands that it is a legally binding document, and that he has been advised to consult a lawyer of his choosing before signing this Release, and has had the opportunity to do so.
