Employment Agreement to which Executive would be entitled upon an Involuntary
Termination are not intended to be in addition to the benefits to which
Executive is entitled under this Agreement. Accordingly, if Executive is
entitled to receive benefits under Paragraph&nbsp;3 of this Agreement, then
Executive agrees that (a)&nbsp;Executive shall not be entitled to continued payment
of salary, bonus, benefits, severance payments or any other compensation under
the Employment Agreement, whether as payment for the remainder of the
employment term provided therein or otherwise, and, in the event of an
Involuntary Termination prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, the
lump sum cash payment provided for in Paragraph 3(a) hereof shall be reduced by
the aggregate amount of any severance payments received by Executive under the
Employment Agreement, (b)&nbsp;the non-competition covenants, if any, under the
Employment Agreement shall continue to apply, and (c)&nbsp;Executive shall not be
eligible to receive any benefits under any other severance benefit plan or
policy maintained by the Company or any Affiliate. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall adversely affect Executive&#146;s
entitlement to payment from the Company for the amount of Executive&#146;s accrued
but unused vacation and sick leave through the date of an Involuntary
Termination, to the extent any such amount is due and owing under the terms of

to Executive interest on the amount payable from the date that such payment
should have been made under such paragraph until such payment is made, which
interest shall be calculated at the rate of 12% per annum.

(other than interest or penalties that are the result of errors or omissions
that are the primary responsibility of Executive) with respect to such excise
tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest or penalties, are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the &#147;Excise Tax&#148;), the Company shall
promptly pay to Executive an additional payment (a &#147;Gross-up Payment&#148;) in an
amount such that after payment by Executive of all taxes (including any
interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes other than interest or
penalties that are the result of errors or omissions that are the primary
responsibility of Executive), including any Excise Tax imposed on any Gross-up
Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-up Payment equal to the
Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. The Company and Executive shall make an

days of the receipt of any claim; provided that failure to timely notify the
Company shall not affect Executive&#146;s right to receive a Gross-up Payment unless
the delay results in a significant detriment to the Company) of any claim by
the Internal Revenue Service which, if successful, would require the Company to
make a Gross-up Payment (or a Gross-up Payment in excess of that, if any,
initially determined by the Company and Executive). The Company shall notify
Executive in writing at least ten days prior to the due date of any response
required with respect to such claim if it plans to contest the claim. If the
Company decides to contest such claim, Executive shall cooperate fully with the
Company in such action; provided, however, the Company shall bear and pay
directly or indirectly all costs and expenses (including additional interest
and penalties) incurred in connection with such action and shall indemnify and
hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income
tax, including interest and penalties with respect thereto, imposed as a result
of the Company&#146;s action. If, as a result of the Company&#146;s action with respect
to a claim, Executive receives a refund of any amount paid by the Company with
respect to such claim, Executive shall promptly pay such refund to the Company.
If the Company fails to timely notify Executive whether it will contest such
claim or the Company determines not to contest such claim, then the Company
shall immediately pay to Executive the portion of such claim, if any, which it
has not previously paid to Executive.

sixty days from and after the expiration of two years after said effective date
and within sixty days after each successive two-year period of time after said
effective date that this Agreement is in effect, the Company shall have the
right to review this Agreement, and in its sole discretion either continue and
extend this Agreement, terminate this Agreement, and/or offer Executive a
different agreement. The Compensation Committee of the Company Board
(excluding any member of such committee who is covered by this Agreement or by
a similar agreement with the Company or an Affiliate) will vote on whether to
so extend, terminate, and/or offer Executive a different agreement and will
notify Executive of such action within said sixty-day time period mentioned
above. This Agreement shall remain in effect until so terminated and/or
modified by the Company. Failure of the Compensation Committee of the Company
Board to take any action within said sixty days shall be considered as an
extension of this Agreement for an additional two-year period of time.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this &#147;sunset provision,&#148;
it is agreed that if a Change in Control occurs while this Agreement is in
effect, then this Agreement shall not be subject to termination or modification
under this &#147;sunset provision,&#148; and shall remain in force for a period of two
years after such Change in Control, and if within said two years the
contingency factors occur which would entitle Executive to the benefits as
provided herein, this Agreement shall remain in effect in accordance with its
terms. If, within such two years after a Change in Control, the contingency
factors that would entitle Executive to said benefits do not occur, thereupon
this two-year &#147;sunset provision&#148; shall again be applicable with the sixty-day
time period for action by the Compensation Committee of the Company Board to
thereafter commence at the expiration of said two years after such Change in
Control and on each two-year anniversary date thereafter. Executive may
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such termination to
the Company at any time prior to Executive&#146;s receipt of payments or benefits
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and, if Executive does
