Contract Type FiledMarch 31st, 1999 Company IndustryAs I have expressed to you in person, I feel confident that we have the management team to move forward and drive this business. Recognizing the concerns as expressed by some of the management team relative to issues of transition should this relationship not develop as I anticipate, this is to confirm that Stonington has agreed with my recommendation that, in lieu of the normal severance policy, an "Executive Severance Arrangement" including a severance pay period of up to two years salary will be offered to you in the event that your employment is terminated by Dictaphone for any reason other than cause. This severance will also be offered to you should your job be eliminated or a substantial reduction in your responsibilities and compensation occur.
