AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of February 5, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), by and between XXXXX XXXXXX (the “Executive”) and WESTWOOD COMPUTER CORPORATION (the “Company”).

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive previously entered into an Employment Agreement dated April 16, 2004 (the “Original Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive have agreed to execute a subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) in the form of Exhibit A hereto pursuant to which the Company has agreed to pay the Executive, in accordance with the terms of the Note, certain amounts owed under the terms of the Original Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive now wish to revise the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, it is hereby covenanted and agreed by the Executive and the Company as follows:

1. Performance of Services. The Executive’s employment with the Company shall be subject to the following:

	(a)	During the Agreement Term (as defined below), and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Executive shall be employed by the Company and shall occupy the position of President – Sales and Marketing of the Company. The Executive agrees to serve in that position or in such other offices or positions with the Company or a Subsidiary (as defined below), as shall, from time to time, be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

	(b)	During the Agreement Term, while employed by the Company, the Executive shall devote his full time, energies and talents to serving as its President or such other position determined in accordance with Paragraph (a) above. During the Agreement Term, the Executive’s main office shall be at 00 Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000.

	(c)	The Executive agrees to perform his duties hereunder faithfully and efficiently subject to the directions of the Board. The Executive’s duties may include providing services for the Company, Parent and the Subsidiaries, as determined by the Board, provided, that the Executive shall not, without his consent, be assigned tasks that would be inconsistent with those of President or such other position determined in accordance with Paragraph (a) above.

	(d)	Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 1, during the Agreement Term, the Executive may devote reasonable time to activities other than those required under this Agreement, including activities involving professional, charitable, community, educational, religious and similar types of organizations, speaking engagements, membership on the boards of directors of other organizations, and similar types of activities, to the extent that such other activities do not, in the judgment of the Board, conflict with, inhibit or prohibit the performance of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, or conflict in any material way with the business of the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Executive shall not serve on the board of any business, or hold any other position with any business, without the consent of the Board. The Company acknowledges that Executive is a Manager and Member of Westwood Property Holdings LLC, the Company’s current landlord, and the Executive shall be entitled to devote reasonable time to the activities of Westwood Property Holdings LLC as may be needed; provided, however, that such devotion of time shall not hinder or interfere with the Executive’s duties to the Company.

	(e)	Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Executive shall not be required to perform services under this Agreement during any period that the Executive is Disabled. The Executive shall be considered “Disabled” or under a “Disability” during any period in which a physical or mental disability renders the Executive incapable, after reasonable accommodation, of performing the duties under this Agreement. In the event of a dispute as to whether the Executive is Disabled, the Company may refer the same to a licensed practicing physician of the Company’s choice, and the Executive agrees to submit to such tests and examinations as such physician shall deem appropriate. At any time during the period in which the Executive is Disabled, the Company may appoint a temporary replacement to assume the Executive’s responsibilities.

	(f)	The Company shall employ the Executive for the period beginning on February 5, 2007 and ending on April 15, 2009 (the “Initial Term”); subject, however, to earlier termination as provided herein. The Executive’s employment hereunder automatically shall be extended for one (1) additional year at the end of the Initial Term, and again each successive year thereafter. However, such annual extensions may cease by either party delivering written notice of such cessation to the other party; provided that such notice is delivered at least 60 days prior to the date on which extension is otherwise to occur. The period during which the Executive is employed pursuant to this Agreement shall be referred to as the “Agreement Term.”

	(g)	For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the term “Parent” shall mean Emtec, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and (ii) the term “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation, partnership, joint venture or other entity during any period in which at least a fifty

percent interest in such entity is owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent (or a successor to Parent).

2. Compensation. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, during the Agreement Term, while the Executive is employed by the Company, the Company shall compensate the Executive for his services as follows:

	(a)	The Executive shall receive an annual base salary, payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices, as set forth on Schedule 2(a) (the “Salary”). The Executive’s Salary rate shall be reviewed by the Board each year during the Agreement Term, while the Executive is employed by the Company, to determine whether an increase in the amount of Salary is appropriate. Any increase in the amount of Salary shall be in the sole discretion of the Board. In no event shall the Salary of the Executive be reduced to an amount that is less than the amount specified in this Paragraph (a), or to an amount that is less than the amount that the Executive was previously receiving during the Agreement Term. In the event the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated February 5, 2007 by and between the Company and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (the “X. Xxxxxx Employment Agreement”) is terminated, the Executive’s Salary beginning the first day of the month after such termination shall be as set forth on Schedule 2(a)(1) and shall be paid to the Executive on a pro rata basis for the number of months remaining in the year of such termination.

	(b)	Intentionally deleted.

	(c)	Except as otherwise specifically provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Executive shall be provided with the welfare benefits and other fringe benefits to the same extent and on the same terms and in any event no less than those benefits that are currently provided by the Company to the Executive. The current benefits of the Executive are set forth on Schedule 2(c). However, the Company shall not be required to provide a benefit under this Paragraph (c) if such benefit would duplicate (or otherwise be of the same type as) a benefit specifically required to be provided under another provision of this Agreement. The Executive shall complete all forms and physical examinations, and otherwise take all other similar actions to secure coverage and benefits described in this Paragraph 2, to the extent determined to be necessary or appropriate by the Company.

	(d)	During any period while the Executive is Disabled and is otherwise entitled to receive Salary and any bonus payments under this Agreement any such Salary to the Executive shall be reduced by the amount of any benefits paid for the same period of time under the Company-provided disability income replacement coverage.

All payments and benefits to the Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to reduction for payroll and other applicable taxes.

(e)

During the first year of the Agreement Term, the Executive, together with Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, shall be entitled to receive reimbursement from the Company for the joint reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx in providing the services hereunder and under the X. Xxxxxx Employment Agreement (including travel) (the “Expenses”) up to $75,000 per year combined without any approval on the part of the Parent (the “Approved Expenses”); provided, that such amount shall be reduced pro rata based on the number of months remaining in the first year of the Agreement Term. Any Expenses in excess of the Approved Expenses must be approved in writing by the Parent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The amount of Approved Expenses reimbursed by the Company for any years subsequent to the first year of the Agreement Term may be adjusted upward as agreed upon in writing by the Executive and the Parent, but in no event shall such amount be less than $75,000.

3. Termination. The Executive’s employment with the Company during the Agreement Term may be terminated by the Company or the Executive without any breach of this Agreement only under the circumstances described in Paragraphs 3(a) through 3(f):

(a)	Death. The Executive’s employment hereunder will terminate upon death, but bonus payments, if any, will inure to the benefit of his heirs and assigns for the full Agreement Term.

(b)	Disability. During the Agreement Term, the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment if Executive is Disabled for longer than twelve (12) consecutive months.

(c)	Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean:

	(i)	a willful act by the Executive against the interests of the Company or which causes or is intended to cause harm to the Company or its shareholders;

	(ii)	the Executive’s conviction, or plea of no contest or guilty, to a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or of a lesser offense involving dishonesty as such dishonesty relates to the Company’s assets or business or the theft of Company property;

	(iii)	the Executive’s insobriety or use of illegal drugs, chemicals or controlled substances either (A) in the course of performing Executive’s duties and

		responsibilities under this Agreement, or (B) otherwise affecting the ability of Executive to perform the same; or

	(iv)	a material breach of the Agreement by the Executive which is not cured by the Executive within twenty (20) days (where the breach is curable) following written notice to the Executive by the Company of the nature of the breach.

For purposes of this Agreement, no act, or failure to act, on the Executive’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. Cause shall not exist under this Section 3 unless and until the Company has delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by a majority of the Board (absent the Executive) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose, or by written consent, finding that such Cause exists in the good faith opinion of the Board. This Section 3 shall not prevent the Executive from challenging in any arbitration proceeding the Board’s determination that Cause exists or that the Executive has failed to cure any act (or failure to act), to the extent permitted by this Agreement that purportedly formed the basis for the Board’s determination. The Company must provide written notice to the Executive that it is intending to terminate the Executive’s employment for Cause within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Board has actual knowledge of the occurrence of the event it believes constitutes Cause.

(d)	Termination for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason at any time during the Agreement Term. For purposes of the Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean:

	(i)	a material breach of the terms of this Agreement by the Company;

	(ii)	the Company requiring the Executive to move his primary place of employment more than thirty-five (35) miles from the then current place of employment;

	(iii)	a material diminution of the Executive’s responsibilities or any material reduction in the general nature of the Executive’s duties or authority to a level inconsistent with President, unless previously agreed to in writing by the Executive;

	(iv)	the failure of the Executive to be elected to the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Parent (provided, that it shall not be deemed to be a termination for Good Reason if Executive elects not to seek reelection to the Board of Directors of the Company or Parent); or

	(v)	a Change of Control of the Company or the Parent;

provided that any of the foregoing is not cured by the Company within twenty (20) days following receipt of written notice by the Executive to the Company of the specific nature of the breach. No termination for Good Reason shall be permitted unless the Company shall have first received written notice from the Executive describing the basis of such termination for Good Reason. A termination of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason pursuant to this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a termination by the Company without Cause and the provisions of this Section relating to the payment of compensation and benefits shall apply. The term “Change of Control” means (i) the acquisition by any person or group, or two or more such persons acting in concert, of beneficial ownership of more than 51% of the outstanding common stock of the Company or the Parent [(excluding the common stock of the Company or Parent owned by the Executive, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx or their assigns)]; or (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Parent. The term Change of Control will expressly include, without limitation, any such acquisition or sale that is structured as a merger, consolidation, joint venture, tender offer, exchange offer, equity investment in the Company or the Parent.

The Executive’s right to terminate employment pursuant to this Paragraph (d) shall not be affected by incapacity due to physical or mental illness.

	(e)	Voluntary Termination by Executive. The Executive shall provide the Company thirty (30) days’ advance written notice in the event the Executive terminates his employment, other than for Good Reason (as defined herein); provided that the Board may, in its sole discretion, terminate the Executive’s employment with the Company prior to the expiration of the thirty-day notice period. In such event and upon the expiration of such thirty day period (or such shorter time as the Board in its sole discretion may determine), the Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall immediately and automatically terminate.

	(f)	Termination by Company. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time for any reason, by giving the Executive prior written Notice of Termination, which Notice of Termination shall be effective immediately, or such later time as is specified in such notice; provided, however that as a condition to the Company’s ability to terminate the Executive’s employment under this Paragraph 3(f): (i) all amounts due and owning under this Agreement, including all salary payments shall have been paid in full; (ii) all amounts due and owing under the Subordinated Note in the amount of $750,000 made by Westwood Acquisition Corporation in favor of Four Kings Management LLC shall have been paid in full; (iii) all amounts due and owing under the 8% Junior Subordinated Note and the 5% Junior Subordinated Note made by the Company in the favor of the Executive shall have been paid in full and (iv) all amounts due and owing under the Note shall have been paid in full. The Company shall not be required to specify a reason for the termination under this Paragraph 3(f), provided that termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company shall be deemed to have occurred under this Paragraph 3(f) only if it is

		not for reasons described in Paragraph 3(b), 3(c), 3(d), or 3(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph (f), if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company in accordance with this Paragraph (f), and within a reasonable time period thereafter, it is determined by the Board that circumstances existed which would have constituted a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause in accordance with Paragraph 3(c), the Executive’s employment will be deemed to have been terminated for Cause in accordance with Paragraph 3(c) (provided, however, that termination for Cause shall not be determined to exist under this sentence solely by reason of circumstances which could have been remedied if notice had been given in accordance with Paragraph 3(c)).

	(g)	Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company or the Executive (other than a termination pursuant to Paragraphs 3(a) or (b)) must be communicated by a written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a dated notice which indicates the Date of Termination (not earlier than the date on which the notice is provided), and which indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied on and which sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances, if any, claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated.

	(h)	Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means the last day the Executive is employed by the Company, provided that the Executive’s employment is terminated in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 3.

	(i)	Effect of Termination. If, on the Date of Termination, the Executive is a member of the Board of the Company or a member of the Board of Directors or Board of Members of Parent or any of the Subsidiaries, or holds any other position with the Company, Parent and the Subsidiaries, the Executive shall resign from all such positions as of the Date of Termination.

4. Rights Upon Termination. The Executive’s right to payment and benefits under this Agreement for periods after the Date of Termination shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions of this Paragraph 4:

(a)	If the Executive’s Date of Termination occurs during the Agreement Term for any reason, other than for a Company termination under Section 3(f), the Company shall pay to the Executive (subject to the limitations in subsection (c) below):

	(i)	The Executive’s Salary for the period ending on the Executive’s Date of Termination.

	(ii)	A pro rata portion of the amount as set forth on Schedule 4(a)(ii) for the year of the Executive’s Date of Termination based on the number of

	(iii)	Payment for accrued vacation days, as determined in accordance with Company policy as in effect from time to time.

Except as may otherwise be expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Executive to be treated as employed by the Company for purposes of any employee benefit plan or arrangement following the date of the Executive’s Date of Termination.

(b)	If the Executive’s Date of Termination occurs during the Agreement Term under circumstances described in any subsection of Paragraph 3 (other than as set forth in subsection (c) below) then the Executive or his estate will receive all payments in accordance with Paragraph 4(a).

(c)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Executive voluntarily terminates as a result of a resignation pursuant to Paragraph 3(e), the Executive shall be limited to receiving only that Salary that is earned and unpaid for the period ending on the Date of Termination and shall, as of the Date of Termination, forfeit any right to receive payments under the Note, if any, regardless of whether any such Note payments have accrued but were not yet paid.

(d)	If the Executive is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 3(f), the Executive shall be entitled to:

	(i)	The Executive’s Salary for the period ending on the Executive’s Date of Termination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 5, the Company may suspend the Executive from performing his duties under this Agreement following the delivery of a Notice of Termination providing for the Executive’s resignation, or delivery by the Company of a Notice of Termination providing for the Executive’s termination of employment for any reason; provided, however, that during the period of suspension (which shall end on the Date of Termination), the Executive shall continue to be treated as employed by the Company for other purposes, and his rights to compensation or benefits shall not be reduced by reason of the suspension.

6. Mitigation and Set-Off. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. The Company shall be entitled to set off against amounts payable to the Executive any amounts owed to the Company by the Executive, but the Company shall not be entitled to set off against the amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement any amounts earned by the Executive in other employment after termination of employment with the Company, or any amounts which might have been earned by the Executive in other employment had such other employment been sought.

11. Equitable Remedies.

16. Waiver of Breach. No waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by any other party, or of compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party, will operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by such other party of any similar or dissimilar provisions and conditions at the same or any prior or subsequent time. The failure of any party hereto to take any action by reason of such breach will not deprive such party of the right to take action at any time while such breach continues.

or to the Executive:

                        at address in Company’s records.

All notices to the Company shall be directed to the attention of Secretary of the Company, with a copy to the Board of Directors of the Company. Each party, by written notice furnished to the other party, may modify the applicable delivery address, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

19. Arbitration of All Disputes. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (or the breach thereof) shall be settled by final, binding and non-appealable arbitration by three arbitrators. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Paragraph 20, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “Association”) then in effect. One of the arbitrators shall be appointed by the Company, one shall be appointed by the Executive, and the third shall be appointed by the first two arbitrators. If the first two arbitrators cannot agree on the third arbitrator within 30 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator, then the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the Association. This Paragraph 20 shall not be construed to limit the Company’s right to obtain relief under Paragraph 11 with respect to any matter or controversy subject to Paragraph 11, and, pending a final determination by the arbitrator with respect to any such matter or controversy, the Company shall be entitled to obtain any such relief by direct application to state, federal, or other applicable court, without being required to first arbitrate such matter or controversy. The losing party shall bear all expenses of the arbitrator incurred in any arbitration hereunder and shall reimburse the prevailing party for any related reasonable legal fees and expenses directly attributable to such arbitration; provided that such legal fees are calculated on an hourly, and not on a contingency fee, basis.

20. Survival of Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties to this Agreement shall survive the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

21. Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated herein, this Agreement, including any Exhibit(s) attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, if any, between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the Original Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit any policy or agreement that is otherwise applicable relating to confidentiality, rights to inventions, copyrightable material, business and/or technical information, trade secrets, solicitation of employees, interference with relationships with other businesses, competition, and other similar policies or agreement for the protection of the business and operations of the Company and the Subsidiaries.
