(a) The Company shall, within 30 days after each date on which the
Executive becomes entitled to receive (whether or not then due) a Contingent
Compensation Payment (as defined below) relating to a Change of Control,

for its determination) (i) which of the payments or benefits due to the

constitute Contingent Compensation Payments, (ii) the amount, if any, of the

(as defined below) due to the Executive with respect to such Contingent
Compensation Payment. Within 30 days after delivery of such notice to the
Executive, the Executive shall deliver a response to the Company (the "Executive

determination, in which case he shall indicate which payment and/or benefits
should be characterized as a Contingent Compensation Payment, the amount of the
Excise Tax with respect to such Contingent Compensation Payment and the amount
of the Gross-Up Payment due to the Executive with respect to such Contingent
Compensation Payment. In the event that the Executive fails to deliver an
Executive Response on or before the required date, the Company's initial

the proper determination of the foregoing characterizations, amounts or
payments, then the parties shall submit the matter to binding arbitration to be
heard by a single arbitrator, who shall be a Certified Public Accountant and who
shall be agreeable to both parties. Within 90 days after the due date of each
Contingent Compensation Payment to the Executive, the Company shall pay to the
Executive, in cash, the Gross-Up Payment with respect to such Contingent
Compensation Payment, in the amount determined pursuant to this Section 4.3(a).

the following respective meanings:
(i) "Contingent Compensation Payment" shall mean any payment

the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) on a Change of
Control of the Company.
(ii) "Gross-Up Payment" shall mean an amount equal to the sum
of (i) the amount of the Excise Tax payable with respect to a
Contingent Compensation Payment and (ii) the amount necessary to pay
all additional taxes imposed on (or economically borne by) the
Executive (including the Excise Taxes, state and federal income taxes
and all applicable withholding taxes) attributable to the receipt of
such Gross-Up Payment. For purposes of the preceding sentence, all
taxes attributable to the receipt of the Gross-Up Payment shall be
computed assuming the application of the maximum tax rates provided by
law.
4.4 EXERCISE OF STOCK OPTIONS; PAYMENT OF REQUIRED TAXES. Following a Change of
Control, the Executive may take any or all of the following actions; Provided,

any tax withholding with respect to either the exercise of Options or the
vesting of Restricted Stock Awards by:
(i) delivering to the Company outstanding shares of common
stock of the Company, valued at the closing price of a share of such
stock on the last trading day preceding the date of delivery (the
"Market Price") and/or

withheld shares shall no longer be issuable under the applicable Option
or Restricted Stock Award); and

exercise price of any or all of his Options, in which case the Company shall
receive 1) a security interest in the shares issued upon exercise of such
Options and 2) full recourse to the maker, to secure payment of such loan. The
loan shall bear interest at an agreed-upon market rate, and shall be due and
payable in full no later than thirty days after the latest date that the
