shares of the common stock of Radica at the closing market price

shall be forfeited if the employment of Employee shall be
terminated, for any reason other than as provided in Section
6(c), prior to such date. In addition, should termination of

employed by the Radica Group, cause the loss of the Employee's
2004 bonus from his current employer, the vesting of the
restricted stock shall be immediate for the market value of 60%
of the lost bonus, and 40% of the value of the lost bonus shall
be paid in cash, with reasonable promptness after it is
ascertained that the bonus has been lost, and an amount of the
above Restricted Stock
-7-
award equal to the cash payment shall be cancelled. In no event
shall any amount of the lost bonus, for this purpose, exceed the
market value of the 25,000 shares of Restricted Stock, to be
measured based on the closing stock price on the Grant Date. The
amount of the lost bonus must be documented by Employee and
Radica agrees to work with Employee and Employee's current
employer to determine a transition plan that minimizes the amount
of any lost bonus while satisfying Radica's needs for Employee to
begin employment as close as possible to January 31, 2005.

Options shall vest and become exercisable 33?% per year following

Date.

Stock will be adjusted for stock splits and reverse splits; provided
that such number of shares shall not be adjusted if Radica should
otherwise change or modify its capitalization, including but not
limited to the issuance by Radica of new securities (including options
or convertible securities), ESOP's or other employee stock plans. It
is the intent of the parties that the stock subject to the Stock
Options or the Restricted Stock shall be subject to dilution, except
for stock splits and reverse splits.

pursuant to Section 3(a) or Termination by Radica or Radica USA
for Cause or by Employee without consent of Radica or Radica USA,
or (ii) twelve (12) months after the date of Termination in the
event of Termination by Radica or Radica USA without Cause or by
Employee for Good Reason in the event of a Termination/Change in
Control (unless Section 6(f) of this Agreement applies, in which
case this Section 6(c) shall not apply to Employee's Stock
Options, restricted stock and restricted stock units) or the
Total Disability of Employee (each of such applicable dates being
called a "Determination Date"), Employee shall forfeit the Stock
Options (measured by percentages of the stock subject to the
Stock Options) and they shall expire as follows:
(A) if the Determination Date is within the first year after the
date the Stock Option is granted (the "Grant Date") then
Employee shall forfeit 100% of the stock subject to the
Stock Option;
(B) if the Determination Date is after the end of said first
year and within the second year after the Grant Date, then
Employee shall forfeit 66?% of the stock subject to the
Stock Option; or
-8-
(C) if the Determination Date is after the end of said second
year and within the third year after the Grant Date, then
Employee shall forfeit 33?% of the stock subject to the
Stock Option.

follows:
(D) if the Determination Date is prior to March 31, 2008, then
Employee shall forfeit 100% of such Restricted Stock.
d) In any event each Stock Option shall expire to the extent not
previously exercised on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.
Otherwise, Employee may at any time within ninety (90) days following
the Determination Date, exercise his right to purchase stock subject
to the Stock Options, but subject to the foregoing provisions
respecting vesting and forfeitures. Restricted Stock, and restricted
stock units, if not forfeited, shall be deliverable to Employee upon
its applicable vesting date, free of the previously existing
restrictions, but subject to applicable state and federal securities
laws.
e) Employee shall have no right to sell, alienate, mortgage, pledge, gift
or otherwise transfer the Stock Options, the Restricted Stock or any
restricted stock units or any rights thereto, except by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution, and except pursuant to applicable
state and federal securities laws and except as specifically
contemplated herein.
f) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control under the Omnibus Plan, all
of Employee's then outstanding stock options, restricted stock, and
restricted stock units in Radica shall vest and become immediately
exercisable. If Employee is terminated by Radica or Radica USA without
Cause after a definitive agreement for a transaction that would
constitute a Change in Control as described in the Omnibus Plan has
been approved by the shareholders of Radica, but before such
transaction is consummated, Employee's stock options shall vest on the
date of such termination without Cause. Income realized by Employee as
a result of the acceleration of vesting of equity compensation or
otherwise resulting from a Termination/Change in Control is
specifically paid in consideration of post-employment restrictions of
Section 7 hereunder.
