Consulting Agreement Effective upon Executive’s termination of employment for any reason other than Executive’s termination by the Company for Cause, HCC hereby retains Executive as a consultant (an independent contractor and not as an employee) for a period of five (5) years (the “Consulting Period”). During the Consulting Period, Executive shall serve as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board. Termination of the Term shall not effect the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Section 6, subject to the following: Executive agrees to provide, if requested, 1,000 hours of service (the “Consulting Services”) per year, as required by the Company. Prior to a Change of Control, the Company shall use its best effort to cause Executive to continue as a Director and Chairman of the Board during the term of the Consulting Period. HCC shall pay Executive $450,000 per year of the Consulting Period, payable quarterly, in advance. Executive may elect to delay payment for services, but not the services themselves. During such Consulting Period, Executive shall receive, to the extent permitted by law and the terms of any existing plan, all of the Company’s benefits as if Executive was a full time employee. In addition, the terms of this Section 6 shall remain in full force and effect whether or not Executive dies or suffers a Disability pursuant to the terms hereof during the Consulting Period. Further, if at any time during the Term of this Agreement Executive shall elect, at his sole option, to cease being a full time employee, then and in that event, Executive shall become a consultant pursuant to the terms of this Section. During the Consulting Period, Executive shall have the right to the same benefits for the same purposes and to the same extent as were in effect during the term of this Agreement, provided, however, if Executive ceases to be the Executive Chairman, Executive shall no longer receive Deferred Compensation. The Consulting Services to be provided shall be commensurate with Executive’s training, background, experience and prior duties with the Company Executive shall receive such stock options or cash bonuses as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion shall determine. Executive agrees to make himself reasonably available to provide such Consulting Services during the Consulting Period; provided, however, the Company agrees that it shall provide reasonable advance notice to Executive of its expected consulting needs and any request for Consulting Services hereunder shall not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s other business activities and personal affairs as determined in good faith by Executive. In addition, Executive shall not be required to perform any requested Consulting Services which, in Executive’s good faith opinion, would cause Executive to breach any fiduciary duty or contractual obligation Executive may have to another employer. Further, during the Consulting Period, Executive shall not be subject to any non-competition provisions except for the two-year period provided for in Section 5(c). Unless waived by Executive, Executive shall not be required to perform Consulting Services for more than four (4) days during any week or for more than eight (8) hours during any day. Executive’s travel time shall constitute hours of Consulting Services for purposes of this Section 6. The Parties contemplate that, when appropriate, the Consulting Services shall be performed at Executive’s office or residence and at the Company’s executive offices in Houston, Texas and may be performed at such other locations only as they may mutually agree upon. Executive shall be properly reimbursed for all travel and other expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in rendering the Consulting Services.
No Existing Non-Competition Agreements No Insider is subject to any non-competition agreement or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or prior employer which could materially affect his ability to be an employee, officer and/or director of the Company, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement.
