This
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made this 10th day of August, 2006,
by and between MTM Technologies, Inc., a New York corporation (the
“Company”), and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (the “Executive”).
WHEREAS,
the parties entered into an Employment Agreement, dated October 1, 2004 (as
amended, the “Original Agreement”).
WHEREAS,
the parties hereto wish to enter into a new employment agreement to employ
the
Executive as the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and
to set
forth the terms and conditions of such employment.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and representations
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt
and
adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Employment
Period.
The
Company hereby employs the Executive, and the Executive agrees to serve the
Company, under the terms of this Agreement for a term (the “Initial Term”)
commencing as of the date of this Agreement (the “Commencement Date”) and ending
on December 31, 2009 (the “Initial Term Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Executive’s employment hereunder may be earlier terminated, subject to
Section 4 hereof. On the Initial Term Date and each anniversary date
thereof following the Initial Term Date, the term of this Agreement shall
automatically be extended for an additional period of twelve (12) months
provided,
however,
that
either party hereto may elect not to extend this Agreement by giving written
notice to the other party at least twelve (12) months prior to the Initial
Term
Date or any subsequent anniversary date thereof. The Initial Term and any
renewal periods thereafter, until the termination of the Executive’s employment
hereunder, shall be referred to herein as the “Employment Period.”
2. Duties
and Status.
The
Company hereby engages the Executive as the President and Chief Operating
Officer of the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
During the Employment Period, the Executive shall report directly to the
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and exercise such authority, perform such
executive duties and functions and discharge such executive responsibilities
as
are reasonably associated with the Executive’s position, consistent with the
responsibilities assigned to officers of companies comparable to the Company,
commensurate with the authority vested in the Executive pursuant to this
Agreement and consistent with the By-laws of the Company. The Executive will
render such business and professional services in the performance of his
duties,
consistent with the Executive’s position within the Company, as shall reasonably
be assigned to him by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. During the
Employment Period, the Executive shall devote substantially all of his business
time and his full skill and efforts to the business of the Company.
3. Compensation;
Benefits and Expenses.
(a) Salary. Subject
to this Section 3(a), during the Employment Period, the Company shall pay
to the Executive, as compensation for the performance of his duties and
obligations under this Agreement, a base salary at the rate of $335,000 per
annum, payable in
arrears
not less frequently than monthly in accordance with the normal payroll practices
of the Company. The Executive’s base salary shall be subject to review each year
for possible increase by the Board in its sole discretion, but in no event
shall
such base salary be decreased from its then existing level during the Employment
Period.
(b) Bonus.
During
the Employment Period, in addition to the base salary payable to the Executive
hereunder, the Executive shall also be eligible to receive, as additional
compensation, an annual bonus equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of his
base
salary as set forth in Section 3(a) hereof (the “Annual Bonus”). Such bonus
shall be payable (x) sixty-seven percent (67%) in cash (the “Cash Portion”) and
(y) thirty-three percent (33%) in common stock issued under the Company’s equity
incentive plans (the “Stock Portion”). The parties agree that the Stock Portion
shall be satisfied through the delivery of 25,000 shares of common stock.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of shares issued as part of the
Stock
Portion will, if necessary, be adjusted downward to limit the Total Value
(as
defined below) of the bonus paid in any year to the amount of Executive’s base
salary as set forth in Section 3(a) hereof. As used herein “Total Value” shall
mean the value of the Cash Portion plus the value of the Stock Portion, where
the value of the Stock Portion is determined using the closing price of the
Company’s common stock on the original date is issuance of such shares. Such
bonus will be subject to achievement of performance targets agreed to by
the
Board, or the Compensation Committee thereof, and the Executive, and shall
be
consistent with the targets set for the management bonus plan of the Company
in
effect from time to time for senior executives, if any. All shares of common
stock issued as part of the Stock Portion will be subject to a one year lock-up
agreement.
(c) Stock
Options.
The
Executive shall be entitled to receive awards under any stock option or equity
based incentive compensation plan or arrangement adopted by the Company during
the Employment Period for which senior executives are eligible. The level
of the
Executive’s participation in any such plan or arrangement shall be determined in
the sole discretion of the Board and the Compensation Committee. Concurrently
with the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall grant to the Executive
an option to purchase 107,000 shares of common stock on the terms set forth
on
Exhibit
C
attached
hereto and 20,000 restricted stock units on the terms set forth on Exhibit
D
attached
hereto. The exercise price for such options shall be the greater of the closing
price of the Company’s common stock on (x) August 10, 2006, or (y) the second
full trading day following the release of the Company’s earnings for the fiscal
quarter ended June 30, 2006.
(d)
Vacation
and Sick Leave.
The
Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks paid vacation time per
calendar year and such paid sick leave as is in accordance with the normal
Company policies and practices in effect from time to time for senior
executives; provided,
however
,
that no
more than two weeks of such vacation time may be used consecutively, and
provided,
further,
that
any accrued but unused vacation time and paid sick leave remaining at the
end of
each calendar year shall be forfeited.
(e) Other
Benefits.
During
the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in
all of
the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements of the Company in effect
during the Employment Period which are generally available to the most senior
executives of the Company (including, without limitation, 401(k) and group
medical insurance plans), subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms,
conditions and overall administration of such plans, programs and arrangements.
(f) Expenses.
In
addition to any amounts payable to the Executive pursuant to this
Section 3, the Company shall reimburse the Executive upon production of
accounts and vouchers
2
or
other
reasonable evidence of payment by the Executive, all in accordance with the
Company’s regular procedures in effect from time to time, all reasonable and
ordinary expenses as shall have been incurred by him in the performance of
his
duties hereunder.
4. Termination
of Employment.
(a) Termination
for Cause.
The
Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for cause. For
purposes of this Agreement and subject to the Executive’s opportunity to cure as
provided in Section 4(c) hereof, the Company shall have “cause” to
terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder if such termination shall be the
result of:
(i) the
Executive’s failure to comply in any material manner with the reasonable
policies and rules of the Company or the directives of the Board; or
(ii) the
Executive’s
performance of any material act of fraud or dishonesty in connection with
the
performance of his duties hereunder; or
(iii)
the
Executive’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties hereunder;
or
(iv) the
Executive’s
conviction for, or plea of nolo
contendere to,
a
felony or misdemeanor resulting in a jail sentence or any crime involving
moral
turpitude; or
(b) Termination
for Good Reason.
The
Executive shall have the right at any time to terminate his employment with
the
Company for any reason. For purposes of this Agreement and subject to the
Company’s opportunity to cure as provided in Section 4(c) hereof, the
Executive shall have “good reason” to terminate his employment hereunder if such
termination shall be the result of:
(i) a
reduction
by the Company of the Executive’s base salary; or
(ii) a
material
diminution during the Employment Period in the Executive’s duties or
responsibilities, as set forth in Section 2 hereof; or
(iii)
the
relocation, without
the Executive’s prior written consent, of the Executive’s principal work
location beyond 50 miles from its current location.
(c) Notice
and Opportunity to Cure.
Notwithstanding
the provisions of Sections 4(a) and 4(b) hereof, it shall be a condition
precedent to the Company’s right to terminate the Executive’s employment for
“cause” and the Executive’s right to terminate his employment for “good reason”
that (1) the party seeking the termination shall first have given the other
party written notice stating with reasonable specificity the reason for the
termination (“breach”) and (2) if such breach is susceptible of cure or
remedy, a period of thirty days from and after the giving of such notice
shall
have elapsed without the breaching party having effectively cured or remedied
such breach during such 30-day period, unless such breach cannot be cured
or
remedied within thirty days, in which case the period for remedy or cure
shall
be extended for a reasonable time (not to exceed an additional thirty days)
provided the breaching party has made and continues to make a diligent effort
to
effect such remedy or cure. Notwithstanding anything to the
3
contrary
contained herein, the right to cure set forth in this Section 4(c) shall
not apply if there are habitual or repeated breaches by either party.
(d) Termination
Upon Death or Permanent and Total Disability.
The Employment Period shall be terminated by the death of the Executive.
The
Employment Period may be terminated by the Board if the Executive shall be
rendered incapable of performing his duties to the Company by reason of any
medically determined physical or mental impairment for a period of either
(i) six (6) or more consecutive months from the first date of the
Executive’s absence due to the disability or (ii) nine (9) months
during any eighteen (18) month period (a “Permanent and Total Disability”).
If the Employment Period is terminated by reason of Permanent and Total
Disability of the Executive, the Company shall give 30 days’ advance
written notice to that effect to the Executive. Until the effective date
of the
termination as a result of a Permanent and Total Disability, the Company
shall
continue to pay to the Executive the compensation set forth in Section 3
hereof; provided,
however, that
to
the extent that the Executive receives payments pursuant to any disability
insurance policy for which the Company pays the premium, the Company may
deduct
the amounts received by the Executive pursuant to that policy from the
compensation payable to him.
5. Consequences
of Termination.
(a) Without
Cause or for Good Reason.
In
the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment
Period by the Company other than for “cause” (as provided for in
Section 4(a) hereof) or by the Executive for “good reason” (as provided for
in Section 4(b) hereof) or as a result of death or Permanent and Total
Disability (as provided for in Section 4(d) hereof), the Company shall
provide to the Executive (or his legal representative) (i) the rights,
payments and benefits payable at such times as set forth herein, and (ii) a
release and waiver of claims in favor of the Executive, substantially in
the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A,
as
consideration for the execution and non-revocation by the Executive of a
release
agreement in favor
of
the Company and its shareholders and their respective directors, officers
and
employees, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B:
(i) Salary.
A
continuance of his salary at one hundred percent (100%) of his then current
base
salary, as a severance payment, for a period equal to the greater of
(i) one (1) year from the date of termination of the Executive’s
employment or (ii) the period ending on the last day of the Initial Term
(the “Severance Period”). Any payments pursuant to this
Section 5(a)(i) shall be in lieu of any other severance benefits to
which the Executive is entitled pursuant to any other severance plans, programs,
arrangements, or policies of the Company.
(ii) Options
and Equity
Incentives.
The
impact of the Executive’s termination of employment on the stock options or
other equity incentives held by the Executive (including, without limitation,
the maximum period that any such option or other equity incentive shall remain
exercisable) shall be governed by the applicable equity incentive plan and
agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any stock options or other equity
incentives granted to the Executive on or after the Commencement Date shall
provide that, upon termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company
other than for “cause” (as provided for in Section 4(a) hereof) or by the
Executive for “good reason” (as provided for in Section 4(b) hereof), any
unvested shares subject to such options or other equity incentives shall
become
fully vested and immediately exercisable in connection with such termination.
4
(iii) Other
Benefits.
During
the Severance Period, the Executive will be entitled to a continuance of
coverage under all health, life, disability and similar employee benefit
plans
and programs of the Company on the same basis as the Executive was entitled
to
participate immediately prior to the commencement of the Severance Period,
provided that the Executive’s continued participation is possible under the
general terms and provisions of such plans and programs. In the event that
the
Executive’s participation in any such plan or program is barred for any reason,
the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially
similar to those which the Executive would otherwise have been entitled to
receive under such plans and programs from which his continued participation
is
barred; provided,
however,
that
the aggregate cost of providing benefits to the Executive pursuant to this
Section 5(a)(iii) shall not be materially increased as a result of
providing such alternative coverage. In the event that the Executive is covered
under substitute benefit plans of another employer prior to the expiration
of
the Severance Period, the Company will no longer be obligated to continue
the
respective coverages provided for in this Section 5(a)(iii).
(b) Other
Termination of Employment.
In
the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated during
the Employment Period by the Company for “cause” (as provided for in
Section 4(a) hereof), or by the Executive other than for “good reason” (as
provided for in Section 4(b) hereof), the Company shall pay the Executive
(or his legal representative) any earned but unpaid salary amounts and any
unreimbursed expenses through the Executive’s final date of employment with the
Company, and the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive,
except under the plans, programs and arrangements described in Section 3(e)
hereof in accordance with the terms of such plans.
(c) Withholding
of Taxes.
All
payments required to be made by the Company to the Executive under this
Agreement shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if any, relating
to tax, excise tax and other payroll deductions as the Company may reasonably
determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.
(d) No
Other Obligations.
The
benefits payable to the Executive under this Agreement are not in lieu of
any
benefits payable under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement
of the
Company, except as provided specifically herein, and upon termination, the
Executive will receive
such benefits or payments, if any, as he may be entitled to receive pursuant
to
the terms of such plans, programs and arrangements. Except for the obligations
of the Company provided by this Agreement (including, without limitation,
pursuant to the preceding sentence hereof), the Company shall have no further
obligations to the Executive upon his termination of employment.
(e) Reduction
for “Parachute Payments”.
Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any amounts payable hereunder
to the
Executive in connection with a change in control, as well as any other
“parachute payments,” as such term is defined under Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), payable under any other
plans, agreements or policies of the Company, shall be reduced to the extent
necessary to assure that the Executive does not become subject to the excess
parachute payment excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and the Company
does not lose all or part of its compensation deduction for such payments.
6. Indemnity.
The
Company shall, during his employment with the Company and thereafter,
indemnify
5
the
Executive to the fullest extent permitted by law and by its Certificate of
Incorporation and By-laws and shall assure that the Executive is covered
by the
Company’s directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and any other insurance
policies that protect employees, as in effect from time to time.
7. Restrictive
Covenants.
(a) Proprietary
Information.
(i) The
Executive
agrees that all information and know-how, whether or not in writing, of a
private, secret or confidential nature concerning the business or financial

exclusive property of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates. Such information
and know-how shall include, but not be limited to, inventions, products,
processes, methods, techniques, formulas, compositions, compounds, projects,
developments, plans, research data, clinical data, financial data, personnel
data, computer programs, and customer and supplier lists (collectively,

not disclose any Proprietary Information to others outside the Company or
the
Company’s Affiliates or use the same for any unauthorized purposes without
written approval by the Board, either during or after the Employment Period.

which shall come into his custody or possession, shall be and are the exclusive
property of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates to be used by the Executive
only in the performance of his duties for the Company. The Executive agrees
to
deliver to the Company upon the expiration of the Employment Period such
material containing Proprietary Information.
(iii)
The
Executive agrees
that his obligation not to disclose or use information, know-how and records
of
the types set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above, also extends to
such types of information, know-how, records and tangible property of customers
of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates or suppliers to the Company or the
Company’s Affiliates or other third parties who may have disclosed or entrusted
the same to the Company or the Company’s Affiliates or to the Executive in the
course of the Company’s business.
(iv) Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, such Proprietary Information shall not include information which
(A) is or becomes generally available or known to the public, other than as
a result of any disclosure by the Executive in violation hereof; or (B) is

statutes, in the event that the Executive is requested pursuant to, or becomes
compelled by, any applicable law, regulation, or legal process to disclose
any
Proprietary Information, the Executive shall provide the Company with prompt
written
6
notice
thereof so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate
remedy or, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, waive compliance with
the terms hereof. In the event that no such protective order or other remedy
is
obtained, or the Company waives compliance with the terms hereof, the Executive
shall furnish only that portion of such Proprietary Information which the
Executive is advised by counsel is legally required. The Executive will
cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, in its
efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded such Proprietary Information.
(b) Developments.

Executive
shall make full and prompt disclosure to the Company of all inventions,
improvements, discoveries, methods, developments, software, and works of

others during the Employment Period, whether or not during normal working
hours
or on the premises of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates (collectively,
“Developments”).
(ii) The
Executive
agrees to assign and does hereby assign to the Company (or any entity designated
by the Company) all his right, title and interest in and to all Developments
and
all related patents, patent applications, copyrights and copyright applications.
The Executive also hereby waives all claims to moral rights in any Developments.
(iii)
Notwithstanding
anything
to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of Sections 7(b)(i) and
7(b)(ii) hereof shall not apply to Developments which consist of products
(and not of services) which do not relate to the present or planned business
or
research and development of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates and which
are made and conceived by the Executive not during normal working hours,
not on
the premises of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates and not using the tools,
devices, equipment or personnel of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates or
Proprietary Information.

The
Executive agrees to
cooperate fully with the Company or the Company’s Affiliates, both during and
after the Employment Period, with respect to the procurement, maintenance
and
enforcement of copyrights and patents (both in the United States and foreign
countries) relating to Developments. The Executive shall sign all papers,
including, without limitation, copyright applications, patent applications,
declarations, oaths, formal assignments, assignment of priority rights, and
powers of attorney, which the Company or the Company’s Affiliates may deem
reasonably necessary or desirable in order to protect their rights and interests
in any Development.

this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party;

RELEASE
OF CLAIMS AND COVENANT NOT TO XXX
This
RELEASE OF CLAIMS AND COVENANT NOT TO XXX is executed and delivered by MTM
Technologies, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), to Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxx (the “Executive”).
Pursuant
to the provisions of Section 5(a) of the employment agreement between the
Company and the Executive dated August __, 2006 (the “Employment Agreement”) the
Company hereby agrees as follows:
The
Company and its affiliates release and forever discharge the Executive from,
and
covenant not to xxx or proceed against the Executive on the basis of, any
and
all past or present causes of action, suits, agreements or other claims which
the Company or its affiliates have against the Executive upon or by reason
of
any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any
matters arising out of his employment by the Company and the cessation of
said

Exhibit
C
2004
EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
STOCK
OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT
MTM
Technologies, Inc., a New York corporation formerly known as
Micros-to-Mainframes, Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to the
Micros-to-Mainframes, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), has granted
to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (the “Optionee”) a stock option (the “Option”) to purchase a
total of 107,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the common stock, par value $.01 per
share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, at the exercise price of $[●] per
Share (the “Exercise Price”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein and,
in all respects, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The date
of
grant of the Option is August 10, 2006 (the “Date of Grant”). The Option is
intended to be an incentive stock option (“ISO”) within the meaning of Section
422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); provided,
however, to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of the Common
Stock
with respect to which ISO’s are exercisable for the first time by Optionee
during any calendar year under all plans of the Company and its Parent and
all
subsidiaries exceed $100,000, only that portion of the Option in excess of
such
$100,000 limitation shall be treated as an option that does not qualify as
an
ISO under the Code. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms defined
in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings herein.
1.
Duration.
Subject
to the earlier termination as provided herein or under the Plan, the Option
shall expire at the close of business on August 10, 2016 (the “Termination
Date”).
2.
Written Notice of Exercise.
The
Option may be exercised only by delivery to the General Counsel or Secretary
of
the Company, the Company’s principal executive offices, of a written notice of
exercise substantially in the form described in section 8 hereof.
3.
Anti-Dilution Provisions.
(a) If there is any stock dividend, stock split, or combination of shares
of
Common Stock, the number and amount of Shares then subject to the Option
shall
be proportionately and appropriately adjusted as determined by the Committee,
whose determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Optionee
and the
Company.
(b) If there is any other change in the Common Stock, including a
recapitalization, reorganization, sale or exchange of assets, exchange of
shares, offering of subscription rights, or a merger or consolidation, whether
or not the Company is the surviving corporation, an adjustment, if any, shall
be
made in the Shares then subject to the Option as the Board or Committee may
deem
equitable, and whose determination shall be final, conclusive and binding
upon
Optionee and the Company. Failure of the Board or the Committee to provide
for
an adjustment pursuant to this subparagraph prior to the effective date of
any
Company action referred to herein shall be conclusive evidence that no
adjustment is required in consequence of such action.
(c)
If the Company is merged into or consolidated with any other corporation
and the
Company is not the surviving corporation, or if it sells all or substantially
all of its assets to any other corporation, then either (i) the Company shall
cause provisions to be made for the continuance of the Option after such
event,
or for the substitution for the Option of an option covering the number and
class of securities which the Optionee would have been entitled to receive
in
such merger or consolidation by virtue of such sale if the Optionee has been
the
holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number
of
Shares covered by the unexercised portion of the Option, or (ii) the Company
shall give to Optionee written notice of its election not to cause such
provision to be made and the Option shall become exercisable in full (or,
a the
election of the Optionee, in part) at any time during a period of forty-five
(45) days, to be designated by the Company, ending not more than ten (10)
days
prior to the effective date of the merger, consolidation or sale, in which
case
the Option shall not be exercisable to any extent after the expiration of
such
forty-five (45) day period. In no event, however, shall the Option be
exercisable after the Termination Date.
4.
Investment Representation and Legend Certificates.
Optionee
acknowledges and agrees that, for any period in which a registration statement
with respect to the Option and/or Shares under the Securities Act, is not
effective, Optionee shall hold the Option and will purchase and/or own the
Shares for investment and not for resale or distribution. The Company shall
have
the right to place upon the face and/or reverse side of any stock certificate
or
certificates evidencing the Shares such legend as the Committee may prescribe
for the purpose of preventing disposition of such Shares in violation of
the
Securities Act.
5.
Non-Transferability.
The
Option shall not be transferable by Optionee other than by will or by the
laws
of descent or distribution, and is exercisable during the lifetime of Optionee
only by Optionee. The terms of this agreement shall be binding upon the
executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of
Optionee.
6.
Certain Rights Not Conferred by Option.
Optionee
shall not, by virtue of holding the Option, be entitled to any rights of
a
shareholder in the Company.
7.
Expenses.
The
Company shall pay all original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the
issuance of the Shares pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses
necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith.
8.
Exercise of Options.
(a) The Option shall become exercisable as follows:
(i)
On
the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Option shall become exercisable
to the extent of 26,750
Shares;
(ii)
On
the second anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Option shall become exercisable
to the extent of 26,750 Shares (in addition to any Shares made exercisable
pursuant to subparagraph (a)(i) of this section 8);
(iii)
On
the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Option shall become exercisable
to the extent of 26,750 Shares (in addition to any Shares made exercisable
pursuant to subparagraphs (a)(i) and a(ii) of this Section 8); and
(iv)
On
the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Option shall become exercisable
to the extent of 26,750 Shares (in addition to any Shares made exercisable
pursuant to subparagraphs (a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(iii) of this section
8).
(b) Notwithstanding the exercisability schedule set forth in paragraph (a)
of
this section 8, the Option shall become fully exercisable, and shall remain
exercisable up to and including the Termination Date in the event of either
(i)
the termination of Optionee’s employment by the Company for any reason other
than termination by the Company for “cause” or (ii) termination of Optionee’s
employment by Optionee for “good reason” as such terms are defined in the
Employment Agreement, dated August 10 2006 (the “Employment Agreement”), between
the Company and Optionee, as in effect on the Date of Grant without giving
effect to any termination, amendment or modification of the Employment Agreement
after the Date of Grant that may affect the definitions of “cause” and/or “good
reason” contained in the Employment Agreement. If, as a result of such a
termination of employment event and to the extent applicable under the Code,
the
Option no longer qualifies as an ISO, the Option (or such applicable portion)
shall be treated as an option that does not qualify as an ISO under the
Code.
(c) The Option shall be exercisable, in whole or part and from time to time,
by
written notice of such exercise, delivered to the General Counsel or Secretary
of the Company, at the Company’s principal office by personal delivery, against
written receipt therefor, or by pre-paid, certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares for which
the
Option is being exercised (which number, if less than all of the Shares then
subject to exercise, shall be fifty (50) or an integral multiple thereof)
and
shall be accompanied by payment of the full exercise price for the Shares
for
which the Option is being exercised.
(d) The form of payment of the Exercise Price for Shares purchased pursuant
to
the Option shall consist of (i) cash, (ii) check (subject to collection),
(iii)
by any of the methods enumerated in paragraphs (a), (b), (d) and/or (e) of
section 10.1 of the Plan or (iv) any combination of such methods of
payment.
(e) No Shares shall be delivered upon exercise of the Option until all laws,
rules and regulations which the Committee may deem applicable have been complied
with. If a registration statement under the Securities Act is not then in
effect
with respect to the shares issuable upon such exercise, the Company may require
as a condition precedent that Optionee, upon exercising the Option, deliver
to
the Company a written representation and undertaking, satisfactory in form
and
substance to the Committee, that, among other things, Optionee is acquiring
the
shares for her own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution thereof.
(f) Optionee shall not be considered a record holder of the Shares so purchased
for any purpose until the date on which Optionee is actually recorded as
the
holder of such Shares in the records of the Company.
(g) In the event of (x) Optionee’s termination for “cause” (as defined in the
Employment Agreement as in effect on the Date of Grant without giving effect
to
any termination, amendment or modification of the Employment Agreement after
the
Date of Grant that may affect the definition of “cause” contained in the
Employment Agreement), (y) Optionee’s voluntary termination of Optionee’s
employment with the Company other than for “good reason” (as
defined
in the Employment Agreement as in effect on the Date of Grant without giving
effect to any termination, amendment or modification of the Employment Agreement
after the Date of Grant that may affect the definition of “good reason”
contained in the Employment Agreement), or (z) Optionee’s death or Disability,
the exercisability of the Option shall be subject to the provisions of section
5.7 of the Plan.
9.
Acceptance of the Terms and Conditions of the Plan.
The
acceptance by Optionee of this Stock Option Award Agreement and the Option
shall
constitute the acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions
contained herein and in the Plan.
10.
Continued Employment.
Nothing
herein shall be deemed to create any employment or guaranty of continued
employment or limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate Optionee’s
employment at any time.
11.
Early Disposition of Stock.
Optionee
understands that if Optionee disposes of any Shares received under the Option
within two years after the Date of Grant or within one year after such Shares
were transferred to Optionee, Optionee may be treated for federal and state
income tax purposes as having received ordinary income at the time of such
disposition as determined in accordance with the Code and applicable state
law.
Optionee hereby agrees to notify the Company in writing within thirty days
after
the date of any such disposition. Optionee authorizes the Company to withhold
tax from Optionee’s current compensation with respect to any income recognized
as a result of any such disposition.
OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NOTHING IN THIS STOCK OPTION AWARD
AGREEMENT, NOR IN THE PLAN WHICH IS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, SHALL
CONFER UPON OPTIONEE ANY RIGHT WITH RESPECT TO CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT
BY THE
COMPANY, NOR SHALL IT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH OPTIONEE’S RIGHT OR THE
COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE EMPLOYMENT AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT
CAUSE.
Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and certain information
related thereto and represents that Optionee is familiar with the terms and
provisions thereof, and hereby accepts the Option subject to all of the terms
and provisions thereof. Optionee has reviewed the Plan and this agreement
in
their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior
to
executing this agreement and fully understands all of the terms and provisions
of the Option and this agreement. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding,
conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon
any
questions rising under the Plan. Optionee further agrees to notify the Company
upon any change in the residence address indicated below.

binding upon Grantee and the Company. Failure of the Board or the Committee
