Said payment amounts shall be calculated quarterly (on a calendar-year basis) and paid to the Employee by the Company; andfifteenth day of the second month following the close of each quarter. Final adjustments, if any, will be made for each calendar year by March 15 of the following calendar year and paid to the Employee by that date.

For purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Employee shall be deemed to pay federal, state and local income taxes and employment taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal, state and local income taxation and employment taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and/or the calendar year in which the CIC Date occurs, as applicable, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from the deduction of such state and local taxes.

If a Gross-Up Payment is determined to be payable, it shall be paid to the Employee within ten (iii10) days after the Determination (and all accompanying calculations and other material supporting the Determination) is delivered to the Corporation or the Employee. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Corporation and the Employee, absent manifest error. As a result of uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments not made by the Corporation should have been made ("Underpayment"), or that Gross-Up Payments will have been made by the Corporation which should not have been made ("Overpayments"). In either such event, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment or Overpayment that has occurred. In the case of an Underpayment, the amount of such Underpayment (together with any interest and penalties payable by the Employee as a result of such Underpayment) shall be promptly paid by the Corporation to or commence to be paid within 60 days after for the Date benefit of Termination orthe Employee. In the case of an Overpayment, the Employee shall, at the direction and expense of the Corporation, take such steps as are reasonably necessary (including, if laterreasonable, the Change in Control; filing of returns and claims for refund), follow reasonable instructions from, and procedures established by, the Corporation, and otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Corporation to correct such Overpayment, provided, however, that if (i) Employee shall not in any event be obligated to return to the 60Corporation an amount greater than the net after-day period begins in one calendar year tax portion of the Overpayment that he has retained or has recovered as a refund from the applicable taxing authorities and ends (ii) this provision shall be interpreted in a second calendar yearmanner consistent with the intent to make the Employee whole, such payment on an after-tax basis, from the application of the Excise Tax, it being understood that the correction of an Overpayment may result in the Employee repaying to the Corporation an amount which is less than the Overpayment. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid or commence by the Corporation. 6. In the event that the Corporation determines that the payment of any amounts under this Agreement prior to be paid January 1, 2007 would result in the second calendar year imposition of an excise tax under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and an independent accounting firm selected by the last day Employee from among the four largest accounting firms in the United States agrees with such determination by the Corporation, the payment of such 60amounts shall be delayed until the first business day after December 31, 2006 or the CIC Date, whichever is later. 1. Employer desires Employee to agree not to compete with the Corporation in the event of the termination of employment following a Change in Control or in Anticipation of a Change In Control. Employer is not willing to enter into this Agreement without such a covenant. As additional consideration for the agreement of Employer to make payments to or otherwise compensate Employee under this Agreement, Employer has required Employee to give a Non-day periodCompetition Covenant. Employer may not waive the non-competition obligations in this Section and be relieved of any of its other obligations under this Agreement. 2.

Nothing in this Section shall prohibit Employee from acquiring or holding, for investment purposes only, securities or ownership interest of any entity which may compete directly or indirectly with the Corporation. 4. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit the Employee from seeking or securing employment with a corporation which has a subsidiary or affiliate whose business activities include cotton seed breeding, production and marketing so long as Employee's job duties and responsibilities do not require or allow the Employee to directly engage in any activities which would be in violation of this Section, and so long as he does not violate any of his confidentiality obligations to the Corporation as referred to in Section VIII. 5. In the event of a breach of this Agreement by Employee, Employer may seek injunctive relief to prohibit the Employee from engaging in prohibited competition and/or Employer may initiate legal proceedings to collect actual damages to Employer resulting from such breach. A breach by Employee shall not allow Employer to terminate its obligations to Employee under the other provisions of this Agreement.
