The Company will also pay the full medical, dental and vision premiums for continuation coverage under COBRA for the Executive and dependents who qualify for continuation coverage under COBRA for one year following Termination Date.

(b) If, prior to a Change of Control Period, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason or by the Company for any reason other than death, Disability or Cause, the Termination Payment payable to the Executive by the Company or an affiliate of the Company shall be equal to one (1.0) times the Executive’s Gross Income. The Company will pay the full medical, dental and vision premiums for continuation coverage under COBRA for the Executive and dependents who qualify for continuation coverage under COBRA for one year following the Termination Date.

(c) If, during a Change of Control Period, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive for Good Reason During a Change of Control or by the Company for any reason other than death, Disability, or Cause, the Termination Payment payable to the Executive by the Company or an affiliate of the Company shall be one (1.0) times the Executive’s Gross Income. The Company will pay the full medical, dental and vision premiums for continuation coverage under COBRA for the Executive and dependents who qualify for continuation coverage under COBRA for one (1) year following the Termination Date.

(d) It is the intention of the Company and the Executive that the benefits under this Agreement shall be capped such that no portion of the Termination Payment and any other “payments in the nature of compensation” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code and the regulations adopted thereunder) to or for the benefit of the Executive under this Agreement, or under any other agreement, plan or arrangement, shall be deemed to be an “excess parachute payment” as defined in Section 280G of the Code. It is agreed that the present value of the Total Payments shall not exceed an amount equal to two and ninety-nine hundredths (2.99) times the Executive’s Base Period Income, which is the maximum amount which the Executive may receive without becoming subject to the tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or which the Company may pay without loss of deduction under Section 280G(a) of the Code. Present value for purposes of this Agreement shall be calculated in accordance with the regulations issued under Section 280G of the Code. Within sixty (60) days following delivery of the Notice of Termination or notice by the Company to the Executive of its belief that there is a payment or benefit due the Executive which will result in an excess parachute payment as defined in Section 280G of the Code, the Executive and the Company shall, at the Company’s expense, obtain such opinions as more fully described hereafter, which need not be unqualified, of legal counsel and certified public accountants or a firm of recognized executive compensation consultants. The Executive shall select said legal counsel, certified public accountants and executive compensation consultants; provided, however, that if the Company does not accept one (1) or more of the parties selected by the Executive, the Company shall provide the Executive with the names of such legal counsel, certified public accountants and/or executive compensation consultants as the Company may select; provided, further, however, that if the Executive does not accept the party or parties selected by the Company, the legal counsel, certified public accountants and/or executive compensation consultants selected by the Executive and the Company, respectively, shall select the legal counsel, certified public accountants and/or executive compensation consultants, whichever is applicable, who shall provide the opinions required by this Section 13(d). The opinions required hereunder shall set forth (a) the amount of the Base Period Income of the Executive, (b) the present value of Total Payments and (c) the amount and present value of any excess parachute payments. In the event that such opinions determine that there would be an excess parachute payment, the Termination Payment or any other payment determined by such counsel to be includable in Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated as specified by the Executive in writing delivered to the Company within thirty (30) days of his or her receipt of such opinions or, if the Executive fails to so notify the Company, then as the Company shall reasonably determine, so that under the bases of calculation set forth in such opinions there will be no excess parachute payment. The provisions of this Section 13(d), including the calculations, notices and opinions provided for herein shall be based upon the conclusive presumption that the compensation and other benefits, including but not limited to the Gross Income, earned on or after the date of a Change of Control by the Executive pursuant to the Company’s compensation programs if such payments would have been made in the future in any event, even though the timing of such payment is triggered by the Change of Control, are reasonable compensation for services rendered prior to the Change of Control; provided, however, that in the event legal counsel so requests in connection with the opinion required by this Section 13(d), a firm of recognized

executive compensation consultants, selected by the Executive and the Company pursuant to the procedures set forth above, shall provide an opinion, upon which such legal counsel may rely, as to the reasonableness of any item of compensation as reasonable compensation for services rendered prior to the Change of Control by the Executive. In the event that the provisions of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code are repealed without succession, this Section 13(d) shall be of no further force or effect.

(e) The Termination Payment shall be payable as follows:

(i) In the event the Executive’s Termination Date is during a Change of Control Period, any Termination Payment shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum not later than ten (10) days following the Executive’s Termination Date. Such lump sum payment shall not be reduced by any present value, interest rate, or similar factor. Further, the Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of such payment by securing other employment or otherwise and such payment shall not be reduced by reason of the Executive securing other employment or for any other reason.

(ii) In the event the Executive’s Termination Date is prior to or after a Change of Control Period, any Termination Payment shall be paid to the Executive in equal installments on the Company’s twenty-six (26) regular bi-weekly paydays over the twelve-month period following the Termination Date. Such payments shall not be reduced or increased by any present value, interest rate, or similar factor. Further, the Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of such payment by securing other employment or otherwise and such payment shall not be reduced by reason of the Executive securing other employment or for any other reason.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company be deemed to trigger a right to receive a Termination Payment if the termination is effected by the mutual agreement of the Company and Executive to accommodate a reassignment of Executive to an entity created or acquired by the Company, or to which the Company has contributed rights to technology, assets or business plans, if at the time of such termination the Company owns or is acquiring a minimum of a 19% equity interest in such entity. In the event of any such termination, the Executive shall only be entitled to receive the Executive’s Accrued Benefits as of the Termination Date.

14. TERMINATION NOTICE AND PROCEDURE.

Any termination by the Company or the Executive of the Executive’s employment during the employment period shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination (“Notice of Termination”) to the Executive, if such Notice of Termination is delivered by the Company, and to the Company, if such Notice of Termination is delivered by the Executive, all in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) The Notice of Termination shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances alleged to provide a basis for termination;

(b) Any Notice of Termination by the Company shall be approved by a resolution duly adopted by a majority of the Board, or a majority of the Board may delegate such authority to approve any Notice of Termination to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company;

(c) If the Executive shall in good faith furnish a Notice of Termination for Good Reason or for Good Reason During a Change of Control and the Company notifies the Executive that a dispute exists concerning the existence of Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control, within the fifteen (15) day period following the Company’s receipt of such notice, the Executive shall continue the Executive’s employment during such dispute. If it is thereafter determined that (i) Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control did exist, the Executive’s Termination Date shall be the earlier of (A) the date on which the dispute is finally determined, either by mutual written agreement of the parties or pursuant to Section 16, (B) the date of the Executive’s death or (C) one day prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of a Change of Control, if any, and the Executive’s Termination Payment, if applicable, shall reflect events occurring after the Executive delivered the Executive’s Notice of Termination; or (ii) Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control did not exist, the employment of the Executive shall continue after such determination as if the Executive had not delivered the Notice of Termination asserting Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control; and

(d) If the Executive gives Notice of Termination of his or her employment for Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control and a dispute arises as to the existence of Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control, and the Executive does not continue his employment during such dispute, and it is finally determined that the reason for termination set forth in such Notice of Termination did not exist, if such notice was delivered by the Executive, the Executive shall be deemed to have voluntarily terminated the Executive’s employment other than for Good Reason or Good Reason During a Change of Control.
