appointment, as an outside columnist for the Company. This Employment Agreement
shall commence on February 22, 1999 (the "Commencement Date"), and shall expire
on February 21, 2003, unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 4
thereof (the "Term"). During the Term, except during any week when Xxxxxx is on
vacation as set forth in Section 2(c) hereof, Xxxxxx will author no fewer than
twelve (12) articles per week intended for publication in The Xxxxxx.Xxx. The
Company agrees that, during the Term, it shall include an appropriate reference

its web-site. During the Term, the Company agrees to provide an assistant for
Xxxxxx, who shall be an employee of the Company, and who shall be subject to all
laws, rules, regulations and policies, including The Xxxxxx.Xxx's Securities
Investment Policy (the "Securities Policy"), as are applicable to employees of
the Company, and shall be located at the Company's offices. For purposes of the
Securities Policy, Xxxxxx'x assistant shall be subject to the trading
restrictions applicable to "Editorial Staffers," notwithstanding the fact that
such assistant shall perform only duties associated with the designation of
"Business Staffer" under the Policy.
(b) Xxxxxx agrees to perform faithfully the duties assigned to him
pursuant to this Employment Agreement to the best of his abilities. In
connection with the preparation of articles during the Term, Xxxxxx shall
communicate solely with the Company's Editor-in-Chief or his or her designee.
Xxxxxx shall be permitted to provide editorial advice and commentary to the

designee in a manner consistent with the Securities Policy, but shall not be
permitted to communicate with individual reporters or other editors of the
Company with regard to the Company's editorial content. During the Term, Xxxxxx

provisions which pertain to Outside Columnists, as of January 19, 1999 (the
Draft Securities Policy"), and has reviewed draft provisions regarding
disclosures as of the date of this Agreement (the "Draft Disclosure
Provisions"), and agrees that he shall be obligated to comply with any
provisions of the Securities Policy which pertain to Outside Columnists,
including those pertaining to disclosure, as they may be implemented or amended
from time to time throughout the Term, provided, however, that if the Securities
Policy and/or disclosure provisions implemented or amended by the Company
during the Term differ from the Draft Securities Policy or Draft Disclosure
Provisions in any way which Xxxxxx believes, in his sole discretion, will have a
materially adverse effect on Xxxxxx'x outside business activities on behalf of
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx & Co. and its affiliates, then Xxxxxx shall be entitled to
voluntarily resign with out Good Reason as set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, and
such resignation shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement.

Editor-in-Chief, including, without limitation, participation in the Company's
interactive chat rooms on its web-site and those on America Online, Inc. and
Yahoo! Inc. and any other web-sites established by the Company acting alone or
together with a business partner. The above activities may include streaming
audio to the Company's web-site, and any other web-sites established by the
Company acting alone or together with a business partner. The Company expressly
acknowledges, however, that Xxxxxx shall not be required to perform any of the
services set forth in this Section 2(c) if performance of such services would
unreasonably interfere with any of Xxxxxx'x outside activities, including,
without limitation, Xxxxxx'x activities on behalf of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx & Co. and
its affiliates. The parties agree that Xxxxxx'x participation in radio and
television programs developed by the Company will be the subject of a separate
agreement.

(d) The Company agrees that Xxxxxx shall render his services to the
Company hereunder on a non-exclusive basis, provided, however, that Xxxxxx
covenants that during the Term he shall not be under or subject to any
contractual restriction that is inconsistent with the performance of his duties
hereunder. In this regard, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the services Xxxxxx shall
provide hereunder, Xxxxxx (a) shall be entitled to engage, and will continue to
engage, in other journalistic, writing and media endeavors, including, without
limitation, writing for magazines, television appearances, the writing of books,
and, subject to the restriction in Section 5(a) hereof, various other on-line
media projects, provided that in the event Xxxxxx does accept such engagements,

authors, and the comparable on air indication for nonprint media, refer to
Xxxxxx an an Outside Columnist for the Company; and (b) shall be entitled to
engage, and will continue to engage, in extensive investing and trading in
securities, rights and options relating thereto and contracts in stock indexes,

partnership engaged in extensive Securities Activities (the "Partnership");
Xxxxxx Capital Corporation, the general partner of the Partnership and a
corporation of which Xxxxxx is the president and Xxxxxx'x wife and Xxxxxx are
the sole stockholders; and other entities. Further, the Company acknowledges and
agrees that Xxxxxx shall be entitled to engage, and will continue to engage, in
Securities Activities on behalf of other persons or entities (including Xxxxxx
and members of his family) and that Xxxxxx'x wife will also engage in extensive
Securities Activities. (All such Securities Activities that the Partnership,
Xxxxxx'x wife, Xxxxxx'x affiliates or Xxxxxx may engage in from time to time are
collectively referred to herein as the "Relevant Securities Activities.") In
connection with the foregoing, the Company further acknowledges and agrees that:
(i) The Relevant Securities Activities will often involve the
Partnership's and/or Xxxxxx'x beneficial ownership in and/or trading of
securities or other financial instruments that are the subject of, or otherwise
mentioned, referred to or discussed in, articles written by Xxxxxx for the
Company, and that the Relevant Securities Activities involving such securities
or other financial instruments may occur at any time before or after the
publication date of an issue of any article on The Xxxxxx.Xxx in which such
securities or other financial instruments are mentioned, referred to or
otherwise discussed by Xxxxxx in such article.
3
(ii) Xxxxxx shall not have access to articles written for the
Company by other writers, or information regarding such articles, prior to
publication, except for articles that Xxxxxx is writing or projects in which
Xxxxxx is involved. Furthermore, the Company will endeavor to keep Xxxxxx
unaware, in any and all of his capacities, of the final content or publication
schedule of articles, columns or other writings scheduled for publication on The
Xxxxxx.Xxx that cover or discuss publicly traded securities other than the
articles or columns or other written materials prepared by Xxxxxx for
publication in The Street. Com.
(iii) Notwithstanding any policy of the Company to the contrary,
the Relevant Securities Activities, insofar as they are conducted in a manner
that does not violate the express provisions of the Securities Policy and
applicable law, will not be deemed to in any way violate or breach any other
procedures, policies or practicies of the Company now or hereafter in effect
with respect to Xxxxxx, including, but not limited to, any other conflict of
interest rules or securities trading policies or other rules or procedures that
otherwise may apply to writers for the Company regarding their rights to engage
in the trading of securities or other Relevant Securities Activities, and
further, that any such policies shall not be applicable to Xxxxxx in connection
with his services hereunder.
(iv) Provided Xxxxxx is not in material breach of any of his
obligations hereunder, including any obligation under applicable law, and
without limiting the express provisions of this Agreement, the Company
irrevocably waives and releases Xxxxxx, his affiliates and members of his
immediate family from any duty, fiduciary or otherwise, that Xxxxxx or any of
them may owe, or be deemed to owe, the Company that may in any way prohibits or
limit the Relevant Securities Activities, insofar as they involve the trading
and/or ownership of securities or other financial instruments that are the
subject of or are otherwise referred to or discussed in the articles prepared by
Xxxxxx pursuant to this Agreement, and acknowledges and agrees that such
Relevant Securities Activities do not, and will not, constitute a
misappropriation of the Company's property or a breach of any fiduciary or other
duty Xxxxxx may owe the Company hereunder.
(v) The Company warrants and agrees that each of the articles
prepared by Xxxxxx and published by the Company shall provide appropriate
disclosure relating to the Relevant Securities Activities, as set forth in the
Securities Policy. The Company further agrees that it shall not disclose any
information regarding securities positions provided by Xxxxxx to the Company
pursuant to the Securities Policy to anyone other than that Company's senior
management and
4
senior editorial staff, or its legal advisers, on a confidential, "need to know"
basis, or as required by any court of competent jurisdiction or other federal or
state governmental or regulatory authority.
(f) The Company agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to
defend, indemnify and hold harmless Xxxxxx against any and all loss, damage,
liability and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees, disbursements, court costs, and any amounts paid in settlement and the
costs and expenses of enforcing this Section of this Agreement, which may be
suffered or incurred by Xxxxxx in connection with the provision of his services
hereunder, including, without limitation, any claims, litigations, disputes,
actions, investigations or other matters relating to any securities laws or
regulations, or the violation or alleged violation thereof (the "Securities
Actions"), provided that such loss, damage, liability and expense (i) arises out
of or in connection with the performance by Xxxxxx of his obligations under this
Agreement and (ii) is not the result of any breach by Xxxxxx of his obligations
hereunder, and provided further that, with respect to any Securities Actions,
the Company shall be under no obligation to defind, indemnify or hold harmless
Xxxxxx if Xxxxxx has not acted with a reasonable, good faith belief that his
actions were in no way violative of any securities laws or regulations. With
respect thereto, the termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
order, settlement, conviction, or upon a nolo contendere plea or its equivalent,
shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Xxxxxx did not act with a
reasonable, good faith belief that his actions were in no way violative of any
securities laws or regulations. further, to the extent that Xxxxxx has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Securities Action, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be defended, indemnified
and held harmless by the Company as required herein. Expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and court costs) incurred by Xxxxxx in
defending any Securities Action shall be paid by the Company in advance of the
final disposition of such Securities Action upon receipt of an undertaking by or
on behalf of Xxxxxx to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that Xxxxxx is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company pursuant hereto.
