and non-forfeitable. However, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4, any such
stock options granted to Executive that remain unexercised as of the date of their expiration will
expire in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan and the relevant stock option agreement.

     5. Termination.

          (a) Termination by the Company without Cause; Expiration of Term. The Company may at
any time terminate the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause (and other than due
to death or Disability). If the Company terminates the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder
pursuant to this Section 5(a) or upon the expiration of the Term, as the same may have been
extended or renewed pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall pay Executive all accrued but unpaid

Payment”) equal to three (3) times the sum of (i) Executive’s then annual Base Salary plus (ii) an
amount equal to Executive’s Discretionary Bonus for the immediately preceding fiscal year. In
addition, in the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 5(a) or Section 5(c) below, any
unvested stock options or other equity-based awards granted to Executive under the Equity Plans or
any omnibus stock incentive or award plans previously or subsequently adopted by the Company that
are outstanding as of the date of such termination shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable.
However, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(a), any such stock options granted
to Executive that remain unexercised as of the date of their expiration will expire in accordance
with the terms of the applicable plan and the relevant stock option agreement. Subject to Section
7, the Severance Payment will be paid out in a single lump sum within 50 days of the date of
termination.

          (b) Termination by the Company for Cause. The Company may terminate the Term and
Executive’s employment hereunder at any time for Cause. Upon termination of the

3

 

Term and Executive’s employment hereunder by the Company for Cause, the Company shall promptly
pay Executive his Accrued Compensation.

          (c) Termination by Executive for Good Reason. Executive may terminate the Term and
Executive’s employment hereunder for “Good Reason” (as defined below), after providing thirty (30)
days written notice to the Company, which identifies the Good Reason for Executive’s termination.
Upon termination of the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder by Executive for Good Reason, the
Company shall pay Executive: (1) his Accrued Compensation, to be paid as soon as reasonably
practicable following such termination; and (2) subject to Section 7, the Severance Payment, to be
paid out in a single lump sum within 50 days of the date of termination.

          (d) Termination by Executive without Good Reason. Executive may terminate the Term
and Executive’s employment hereunder other than for Good Reason upon thirty (30) days written
notice to the Company (the “Notice Period”). If Executive terminates the Term and Executive’s
employment hereunder pursuant to this Section 5(d), the Company shall promptly pay Executive his
Accrued Compensation.

          (e) Termination due to Disability. The Company may terminate the Term and Executive’s
Employment hereunder due to Executive’s “Disability.” Executive shall be deemed to have sustained
a “Disability” if he shall have been unable to perform his duties for a period of more than ninety
(90) days in any twelve (12) month period. Upon termination of the Term and Executive’s employment
hereunder pursuant to this Section 5(e), the Company shall promptly pay Executive his Accrued
Compensation.

          (f) Death. The Term and Executive’s employment hereunder will terminate automatically
upon Executive’s death. Upon termination of the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder because
of Executive’s death, the Company shall promptly pay Executive’s estate his Accrued Compensation.

          (g) Termination COBRA Payment. Upon termination of the Term and Executive’s
employment hereunder pursuant to Sections 5(a), (c), or (e), the Company shall pay the cost to
Executive as such costs become due for continuation coverage under COBRA (hereinafter referred to
as the “Termination COBRA Payments”) during the Continuation Period (as hereafter defined). The
Continuation Period shall be the period commencing on the date of Executive’s termination hereunder
and ending on the earlier of the date Executive becomes employed by another employer or twelve (12)
months after the date of such termination. Executive is required to provide the Company with
written notice when Executive becomes employed by another employer.

          (h) Employment. Upon termination of the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder for
any reason, Executive shall be deemed to have voluntarily resigned from the Board and any and all
positions he holds as an officer or director of the Company or any affiliate.

          (i) 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if all or
any portion of the payments and/or benefits due under this Section 5 are determined to be
“nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the United States Internal

4

 

Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Company determines that Executive is a
“specified employee” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the final regulations
promulgated thereunder (the “Treasury Regulations”) and other guidance issued thereunder, then such
payments and/or benefits (or portion thereof) shall commence no earlier than the first day of the
seventh month following Executive’s termination of employment (with the first such payment being a
lump sum equal to the aggregate payments and/or benefits Executive would have received during such
six-month period if no such payment delay had been imposed). For purposes of this Section 5,
“termination of employment” shall mean Executive’s “separation from service”, as defined in Section
1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations, including the default presumptions thereunder.

          (j) Other Severance Pay. Other than as stated in this Section 5, Executive shall not
be entitled to, and the Company shall not pay, any severance pay or benefits under any other plan,
program or policy of the Company (including, without limitation, no Discretionary Bonus for the
year of termination).

          (k) Definitions. As used in this Agreement, and unless the context requires a
different meaning, the following terms, when capitalized, have the meaning indicated:

               (i) “Cause” shall mean: (A) the willful and continued failure of Executive to perform
substantially Executive’s duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from
incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a written demand for substantial performance
is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board
believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive’s duties, or (B) the willful
engaging by Executive in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and demonstrably
injurious to the Company.

               For purpose of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of Executive, shall be
considered willful unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in bad faith or without
reasonable belief that Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any
act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the
Board or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be
done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.
The termination of employment of Executive shall not be deemed to be for cause unless and until
there shall have been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative
vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board at a meeting of the
Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to Executive and
Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding
that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive is guilty of the conduct described in
subparagraph (A) or (B) above and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

               (ii) “Change of Control” shall mean the first to occur of any of the following dates: (A) the
date a Corporate Event is consummated; (B) the date any person (as such term is used in Section
13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, hereinafter the “1934 Act”), other than one or more
trusts established by the Company for the benefit of employees of the Company or its subsidiaries,
shall become the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule

5

 

13d-3 under the 1934 Act) of fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the Company’s outstanding
Common Stock, other than holders of such amounts as of the date hereof; or (C) the date, during any
period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months, on which individuals who at the beginning of such
period constitute the entire Board of Directors of the Company shall cease for any reason to
constitute a majority thereof unless the election, or the nomination for election by the Company’s
stockholders, of each new director comprising the majority was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the Continuing Directors in office on the date of such election or nomination for
election of the new director.

               (iii) “Continuing Director” shall mean: (A) any member of the Board at the close of business
on January 1, 2004; (B) any member of the Board who succeeds any Continuing Director described in
subparagraph (A) above if such successor was elected, or nominated for election by the Company’s
stockholders, by a majority of the Continuing Directors then still in office; or (C) any director
elected, or nominated for election by the Company’s stockholders to fill any vacancy or newly
created directorship on the Board by a majority of the Continuing Directors then still in office.

               (iv) “Corporate Event” shall mean any of the following: (A) any consolidation or merger of the
Company in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to which
shares of the Company’s Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property,
other than any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the holders of the Company’s Common
Stock immediately prior to the consolidation or merger have the same proportionate ownership of
common stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the consolidation or merger; (B) any
sale, lease, or other transfer of all, or substantially all, of the assets of the Company, other
than any sale, lease, or other transfer to any corporation where the Company owns, directly or
indirectly, at least eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding voting securities of the corporation
after the transfer; or (C) any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

               (v) “Good Reason” means any of the following reasons:

               a) A Change of Control; or

               b) Executive’s removal from his position as Chief Executive Officer other than due to a
termination of the Term and Executive’s employment hereunder pursuant to Section 5(a), (b), (d) or
(e) or (f) of this Agreement; or

               c) The Company fails to make any payment to Executive required to be made under the terms of
this Agreement, if such failure is not cured within twenty (20) days after Executive provides
written notice to the Company that provides in reasonable detail the nature of the payment.

     6. Mitigation. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Executive shall not
be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of Additional
Severance Payment set forth in Section 5(a) and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not
Executive obtains other employment.

6

 

     7. Release. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, as
a condition precedent to receiving the Severance Payment set forth in this Agreement, Executive
agrees to execute (and not revoke) a separation agreement and general release of claims acceptable
to the Company (the “Release”). If Executive fails to execute and deliver the Release, or revokes
the Release, within 45 days of the date on which Executive’s employment terminates, Executive
agrees that he shall not be entitled to receive the Severance Payment. For purposes of this
Agreement, the Release shall be considered to have been executed by Executive if it is signed by
his legal representative in the case of legal incompetence or on behalf of Executive’s estate in
the case of his death. In no event shall the Severance Payment be made hereunder until the period
in which to revoke the Release has terminated.

     8. Nondisclosure.

          (a) The Company shall, immediately after executing this Agreement, provide Executive with some
or all of the Company’s various trade secrets and confidential or proprietary information,
including information he has not received before, consisting of, but not limited to, information
relating to: (a) business operations and methods; (b) existing and proposed investments and
investment strategies; (c) financial performance; (d) compensation arrangements and amounts
(whether relating to the Company or to any of its employees, including the CEO); (e) contractual
relationships (including the terms of this Agreement); (f) business partners and relationships; (g)
marketing strategies; (h) lists with information related to existing or prospective customers,
vendors, partners or investors; and (i) methodologies, systems or programs, models, price or
research databases, other research, analytical results, or technical data, regardless of the medium
in which any such information is contained. Confidential Information shall not include: (i)
information that Executive may furnish to third parties regarding his obligations under Sections 8
and 9; or (ii) information that becomes generally available to the public by means other than
Executive’s breach of Section 8 (for example, not as a result of Executive’s unauthorized release
of marketing materials), (iii) information that is in Executive’s possession, or becomes available
to Executive, on a non-confidential basis, from a source other than the Company, or (B) that
Executive is required by law, regulation, court order or discovery demand to disclose; provided,
however, that in the case of clause (B), Executive gives the Company reasonable notice prior to the
disclosure of the Confidential Information and the reasons and circumstances surrounding such
disclosure to provide the Company an opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate
request for confidential treatment of the applicable Confidential Information.

          (b) Executive agrees that all Confidential Information, whether prepared by Executive or
otherwise coming into his possession, shall remain the exclusive property of the Company during
Executive’s employment with the Company and thereafter. Executive further agrees that Executive
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, use or disclose to any third party any
of the Confidential Information described herein, directly or indirectly, either during Executive’s
employment with the Company or at any time following the termination of Executive’s employment with
the Company.

          (c) Upon termination of this Agreement, Executive agrees that all Confidential Information and
other files, documents, materials, records, notebooks, customer lists, business proposals,
contracts, agreements and other repositories containing information

7

 

concerning the Company or the business of the Company (including all copies thereof) in
Executive’s possession, custody or control, whether prepared by Executive or others, shall remain
with or be returned to the Company promptly (within twenty-four (24) hours) after the termination
date.

     9. Severability and Reformation. If any one or more of the terms, provisions,
covenants or restrictions of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
covenants and restrictions shall remain in full force and effect, and the invalid, void or
unenforceable provisions shall be deemed severable. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration,
geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be reformed by limiting and reducing it to the
minimum extent necessary, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law.

     10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the
parties hereto and fully supersedes any and all prior agreements or understandings, written or
oral, between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof. The Agreement supersedes
the Original Agreement and, to the extent applicable to Executive, that certain Severance Agreement

February 2, 2005, by and among, the Company and Executive, among others.

Corporate Opportunity offered to Executive or of which Executive becomes aware, and (b) that
Executive will not act upon any Corporate Opportunity for Executive’s own benefit or for the
benefit of any Person other than Company without first

while Executive was employed by the Company. Executive’s cooperation in connection with such
claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to
prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually
convenient times. Executive also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any

     24. Notification of New Employer. In the event that the Employment is terminated for
any reason, Executive hereby consents to the notification by the Company to Executive’s new

Executive agrees to provide the Company with as much notice as possible of Executive’s intention to
join that company or business but in no event will Executive provide less than two weeks notice of
that intention; provided, however, the provision of such notice and the Company’s receipt thereof
shall not constitute a waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement.

     25. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon Executive, his heirs and personal representatives, and the Company, its successors and
assigns.

10

 

     26. Remedies. The parties recognize and affirm that in the event of a breach of
Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement, money damages would be inadequate and the Company would not
have an adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the parties agree that in the event of a breach or a
threatened breach of Sections 8 and 9, the Company may, in addition and supplementary to other
rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of law or equity of competent
jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or
prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In
addition, Executive agrees that in the event a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator
finds that Executive violated Sections 8 or 9, the time periods set forth in those Sections shall
be tolled until such breach or violation has been cured. Executive further agrees that the Company
shall have the right to offset the amount of any damages resulting from a breach by Executive of

any state, local or federal taxing authority that would not have been imposed on such payments but
for the occurrence of a Change of Control, including any excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code

pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, the Company (including any successor to the Company) shall
pay to Executive at the time any such payments are made under or pursuant to this or the other
agreements, an amount equal to the amount of any such taxes imposed or to be imposed on Executive
(the amount of any such payment, the “Parachute Tax Reimbursement”); provided, that such Parachute
Tax Reimbursement shall in no event be paid later than the end of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which such taxes are imposed upon Executive.

11

 

          (b) In addition, the Company (including any successor to the Company) shall “gross up” such
Parachute Tax Reimbursement by paying to Executive at the same time an additional amount equal to
the aggregate amount of any additional taxes (whether income taxes, excise taxes, special taxes,
employment taxes or otherwise) that are or will be payable by Executive as a result of the
Parachute Tax Reimbursement being paid or payable to Executive and/or as a result of the additional
amounts paid or payable to Executive pursuant to this sentence, such that after payment of such
additional taxes Executive shall have been paid on a net after-tax basis an amount equal to the
Parachute Tax Reimbursement.

          (c) The amount of any Parachute Tax Reimbursement and of any such gross-up amounts shall be
determined by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (with all such cost
borne by the Company), whose determination, absent manifest error, shall be treated as conclusive
and binding absent a binding determination by a governmental taxing authority that a greater amount
of taxes is payable by Executive.
