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 substantially perform his services hereunder which results in material harm to the Company, including the failure to comply in any material manner with the policies and rules of the Company or the directives of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; 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

(v) any material breach by the Executive of the obligations set forth below in Section 7.

(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 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 C, 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 D:

(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”). The Executive, in his sole discretion, shall have the right to demand and receive such severance payments as a single, lump-sum cash payment. 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. The impact of the Executive’s termination of employment on the stock options held by the Executive (including, without limitation, the maximum period that any such option shall remain exercisable) shall be governed by the applicable stock option plan and agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any stock options 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 shall become fully vested and immediately exercisable in connection with such termination.

(iii) Other Benefits. During the Severance Period, the Executive will be entitled to a continuance of any applicable automobile allowance arrangement on the same basis as the Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Severance Period. In addition, should the Executive elect COBRA health care continuation coverage in connection with a termination covered under this Section 5(a), he shall pay for such COBRA coverage at the rate, as in effect from time, that actively-employed executives of the Company pay for medical coverage and the Company shall be responsible for the remainder of the COBRA premium. If the Severance Period exceeds the period during which the Executive receives COBRA coverage, the Company shall pay the Executive a monthly cash allowance equal to the rate, as in effect from time to time, that the Company contributes towards the medical coverage for actively-employed executives of the Company. 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 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.
