Act) immediately after which such Person has "Beneficial Ownership" (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of thirty percent
(30%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding
Voting Securities; provided, however, in determining whether a Change in Control
has occurred, Voting Securities which are acquired in a "Non-Control
Acquisition" (as hereinafter defined) shall not constitute an acquisition which
would cause a Change in Control. A "Non-Control Acquisition" shall mean an
acquisition by (a) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part thereof)
maintained by (i) the Company or (ii) any corporation or other Person of which a

any new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent
Board, such new
4
5
director shall, for purposes of this Plan, be considered as a member of the
Incumbent Board; provided further, however, that no individual shall be
considered a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed
office as a result of either an actual or threatened "Election Contest" (as
described in Rule 14a-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other
than the Board (a "Proxy Contest") including by reason of any agreement intended
to avoid or settle any Election Contest or Proxy Contest; or
(c) Approval by stockholders of the Company of:

(B) the individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board
immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for

outstanding voting securities.

(ii) A complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
(iii) The sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company to any Person (other than a
transfer to a Subsidiary).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be
deemed to occur solely because any Person (the "Subject Person") acquired
Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding
Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the
Company which, by reducing the number of Voting Securities outstanding,
increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject
Persons, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation
of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the
Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person
becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Voting Securities which increases
the percentage of the then outstanding Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by
the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur. such Shares are listed
or admitted to trading, or, if such Shares are not so listed or admitted to
trading, the arithmetic mean of the per Share closing bid price and per Share
closing asked price on such date as quoted on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System or such other market in which such
prices are regularly quoted, or, if there have been no published bid or asked
quotations with respect to Shares on such date, the Fair Market Value shall be
the value established by the Board in good faith and, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option, in accordance with Section 422 of the Code.

and necessary for the protection of the Company and that they may not be
adequately enforced by an action for damages and that, in the event of a breach
thereof by Executive or any Executive-Controlled Person, the Company shall be
entitled to apply for and obtain injunctive relief in any court of competent
jurisdiction to restrain the breach or threatened breach of such violation or

without the necessity of the posting of any bond by the Company. Executive
further covenants and agrees that if he shall violate any of his covenants under
this paragraph 7, the Company shall not be obligated to make any payments or
provide any benefits provided in paragraph 6 and the Company shall be entitled
to recover any amounts previously paid pursuant to paragraph 6. Such a remedy
shall, however, not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any injunctive
relief or other legal or equitable remedy to which the Company is or may be
entitled. Accordingly, Executive agrees that he shall reimburse the Company for
any reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses that the Company might incur in
enforcing this paragraph 7 if it is judicially determined that Executive has
breached this paragraph 7.
8. INDEMNIFICATION. To the full extent permitted by applicable law,
Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against any and
all judgments, penalties, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and other
reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements) actually incurred by Executive in connection with any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil,
criminal, administrative, investigative or other) for any action or omission in
her capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company. Indemnification
under this paragraph 8 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, any
other indemnification by the Company of its officers and directors.
9. ARBITRATION. The parties hereto will endeavor to resolve in good faith
any controversy, disagreement or claim arising between them, whether as to the
interpretation, performance or operation of this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder. If they are unable to do so, any such controversy,
disagreement or claim will be submitted to binding arbitration, for final
resolution without appeal, by either party giving written notice to the other of
the existence of a dispute which it desires to have arbitrated. The arbitration
will be conducted in New York, New York by a single neutral arbitrator and will
be held in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
The decision and award of the arbitrators must be in writing and will be final
and binding upon the parties hereto. Judgment upon the award may be entered in
any court having jurisdiction thereof, or application may be made to such court
for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case
may be. The expenses of arbitration will be borne in accordance with the
determination of the arbitrator with respect thereto, except as otherwise
specified in paragraph 5(b) above. Pending a decision by the arbitrator with
respect to the dispute or difference undergoing arbitration, all other
obligations of the parties will continue as stipulated herein, and all monies
not directly involved in such dispute or difference will be paid when due.
