STATEMENT OF AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the
respective covenants and agreements set forth herein, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. RESTATED AGREEMENT; EMPLOYMENT; PROMOTION.
(a) The Company and Executive hereby agree to replace and
supersede the provisions of the First Employment Agreement and
the Amendment with the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement. The parties further agree that all aspects of the
Executive's employment with the Company hereafter shall be
governed in accordance with the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
(b) In addition to the Executive's titles as Senior Vice President
of Administration, Treasurer and Secretary of the Company, the
Company hereby promotes Executive to the position of Chief
Financial Officer. The Executive will no longer serve under
the title of Chief Counsel. In his new role, the Executive
will be responsible for overseeing management of the Company's
finance, accounting, legal and administration organizations/
departments, all in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement and the Bylaws of the Company. The Executive will
report to the Vice Chairman and the
2
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, will continue to be
part of the Company's Executive Management Team, and will
continue to be treated as an "executive officer" of the
Company for purposes of Section 16 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Executive hereby
accepts such employment upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth. The Executive hereby acknowledges and
agrees that if the corporate titles of Senior Vice President
of Administration and/or Secretary are transferred to
someone other than the Executive during the term of this
Agreement, that such event(s) shall not constitute "Good
Reason" per Section 9(d)(B) of this Agreement.
2. TERM. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, the term
of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and terminate on
December 31, 2000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is not
terminated as provided herein on or before the expiration of its initial term,
this Agreement will be automatically renewed for successive one (1) year terms
unless, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the initial term or
any subsequent one-year renewal term, either party has given written notice to
the other of its intention not to renew this Agreement beyond the end of such
term.
3. DUTIES.
(a) The Executive shall perform all functions and duties
consistent with his positions as described above in Section
1(b) on behalf of the Company and its subsidiary in a
faithful, efficient, trustworthy and professional manner, as
reasonably required by the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company or as otherwise requested by the Board of Directors.
The Executive agrees to comply with all policies and
regulations of the Company and the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, to devote his best efforts to the interests of
the Company, and will not, without the prior written consent
of the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors,
engage in any other job or activity detrimental to the
Company's interests or in contravention to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. The Executive shall be
principally based at the Company's corporate offices in Tampa,
Florida and shall travel as required in connection with the
performance of his duties hereunder. During the term of this
Agreement, the Executive shall devote substantially all of his
working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the
Company. The Executive shall, upon request of the Company,
perform services for any parent or subsidiary of the Company
without compensation except as provided herein.
(b) In addition, the Executive represents that he has not brought
to the Company, and will not bring or use in the performance
of his duties at the Company, any property, trade secrets or
confidential information (whether or not in writing) of a
former employer or third party without that employer's or
third party's written consent. The Executive hereby certifies
that he is not a party to any other agreement (or subject to
any fiduciary obligation) which will interfere with the
Executive's full compliance with this Agreement. The
Executive has not entered into any agreement or understanding
either written or oral in conflict with the provisions of this
Agreement. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
Company is hiring him based upon its understanding that the
Executive will be fully capable, without restriction, of
performing under this Agreement in his capacity as Chief
Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary for the Company,
and that the Company is relying upon the representations set
forth herein in connection with its providing this Agreement
to the Executive.

4. COMPENSATION. As his entire compensation for all services
rendered to the Company during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall
receive the compensation provided for in this Section, subject to withholding
and other applicable employment taxes:
(a) Base Salary. The Company will pay the Executive an annual
base salary (the "Base Salary") of $150,000. The Executive
will be eligible for increases in his Base Salary for the 1999
calendar year and for the 2000 calendar year of not less than
thirteen percent (13%) from the prior annual period. The Base
Salary shall be subject to review on an annual basis by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, upon the
recommendation of the Vice Chairman and the Chief Executive
Officer. The Compensation Committee shall not have the
authority to reduce the Base Salary from the levels set forth
in this Agreement.
(b) Target Annual Bonus. Consistent with the bonus program for
"Executive Management" of the Company (and pursuant to the
target annual bonus pay-out provisions of the employment
agreements of Messrs. Fratello, Crippen, Xxxx and Xxxxxxx),
the Executive will be eligible to potentially earn an annual
bonus of $75,000 (the "Target Annual Bonus") per the
provisions of this Section 4(b) for each of the Company's
three (3) fiscal years during the term of this Agreement. The
Target Annual Bonus will be paid in one lump sum for each of
such fiscal years, subject to the Company and/or Executive, as
applicable, achieving certain criteria as hereinafter set
forth. References below to target revenues and target
operating income relate to Company's "Management Plan
Projections" approved by the Board of Directors no less
frequently than annually in advance of the period or which the
targets are being determined. Actual revenues and actual
operating income shall be computed on a basis consistent with
a method by which target revenues and target operating
income for the related year were computed. Eligibility for
payments of the Target Annual Bonus to Executive shall be for
each calendar year during the term of the Agreement beginning
with the calendar year commencing January 1, 1998 and shall be
computed as follows:
(i) $26,250 will be earned upon Company achieving target
revenues for each calendar year;
(ii) $26,250 will be earned upon Company achieving target
operating income for each calendar year; and
(iii) $22,500 will be earned upon approval of the Board of
Directors after its review of the Executive Management
and/or Executive's presentation of strategic business
accomplishments of the Company for each calendar year.
If a target referenced in subclause (i) or (ii) above is not
met in a particular calendar year, Executive shall not receive
for such calendar year the part of the Target Annual Bonus
tied to such target. However, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this subsection 4(b), if in any calendar year the
Company exceeds the target revenues or target operating income
for such year, the Executive shall be paid an additional bonus
computed as follows: for each 1% that actual revenues for the
calendar year exceed the target revenues for such calendar
year, and for each 1% that the actual operating income for
such calendar year exceeds the targeted operating income for
such year, the Executive shall be paid an additional $630.00.
For example, if Company's target
3
4
revenues for a calendar year were $40,000,000 and actual
revenues for such year computed as provided herein were
$50,000,000, then, as actual revenues would have exceeded
projected revenues by 25%, the Executive would be entitled to
an additional Target Annual Bonus related to target revenues
in the amount of $15,750.00 (i.e., 25 x $630.00). The
presentation by the Executive Management and/or
Executive of Company's strategic business accomplishments for
a fiscal year shall be promptly evaluated by the Board of
Directors and the potential related bonus shall be determined
by the Board of Directors in its reasonable discretion. The
Executive shall be eligible to earn all or a portion of such
potential bonus as so determined by the Board of Directors.
All amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be
paid to the Executive promptly after the amount is determined.
(c) Automobile Allowance. The Company will pay the Executive a
$300 monthly allowance for an automobile owned or leased by
the Executive for use in connection with the performance of
the Executive's duties under this Agreement. Effective
January 1 of the 1999 and 2000 calendar years, the Executive's
monthly car allowance will be adjusted to $330 and $360,
respectively.
5. WORKING FACILITIES. The Company shall provide the Executive
with office space, equipment, facilities, staffing and services which are
suitable to the position of Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President of
Administration, Treasurer and Secretary and adequate for the performance of the
Executive's duties hereunder.
6. EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all
reasonable travel and other business expenses incurred by him in furtherance of
the Company's business in accordance with the Company's written policies and
procedures.
7. VACATION AND HOLIDAYS. The Executive shall be entitled to
such vacation with pay and holidays with pay during each fiscal year of the
Company as shall be approved by the Company. The amount of vacation and
holidays provided to the Executive shall be consistent with the amount given
other comparable executive employees of the Company.
8. HEALTH, WELFARE AND INSURANCE PLANS. Subject to eligibility
requirements, the Executive will be entitled to participate in any plans,
insurance policies or contracts maintained by the Company relating to
retirement, health, disability and other related benefits. The Executive's
rights with respect to any such benefits shall be subject to the provisions of
the relevant plans, policies or contracts providing such benefits. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to impose any obligation on the Company to
adopt or maintain any such plan, policy or contract. As of the date of this
Agreement, the Company does not provide different types or levels of health,
welfare and insurance plan or benefit coverage to its executive employees, and
further, there is no present intention by the Company to change this benefit
policy. However, if the Company were to change its policy relative to
executive benefits, those health, welfare and insurance plan and benefit
coverage made available to the Executive will be consistent with the amount
given other comparable executive employees of the Company.
9. TERMINATION. This Agreement, and the Executive's employment
hereunder, shall terminate in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
4
5
(a) By Company. The Company may terminate this Agreement (i) with
Cause at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice
to the Executive, (ii) upon the Company's merger,
consolidation, acquisition, liquidation, sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of its business and/or
assets to a third party; or (iii) without Cause upon ninety
(90) days prior written notice to the Executive, and the
Executive shall work for the Company during such notice period
unless otherwise directed by the Company.
As used in this Agreement, the term "Cause" shall mean (A)
willful and repeated failure to comply with the lawful
directions of the Company's Chief Executive Officer or Board
of Directors or repeated failure to perform the duties as
Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary of the
Company; (B) gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of duties to the Company and/or its subsidiaries;
(C) commission of any act of fraud with respect to the Company
and/or its subsidiaries; or (D) conviction of a felony or a
crime involving moral turpitude causing material harm to the
standing and reputation of the Company and/or its
subsidiaries, in each case as determined in good faith by the
Company's Board of Directors.
(b) Death. This Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the
Executive's death.
(c) Disability. If the Executive incurs a Disability (as defined
below) which continues for a period of at least ninety (90)
consecutive days, this Agreement shall terminate on the last
day of such period. Unless the Executive shall perform his
duties hereunder for a continuous period of at least thirty
(30) consecutive days following a period of Disability before
the Executive again incurs a Disability, he shall not be
entitled to start a new ninety (90) consecutive day period
under the provisions of this subsection, but instead may only
continue under the remaining portion of the original ninety
(90) consecutive day period.
As used in this Agreement, the term "Disability" shall mean
the Executive's physical or mental inability, by reason of
illness or accident, to perform the normal duties of his
employment by the Company, subject to any obligation the
Company may have under applicable law to provide reasonable
accommodation. If there is any disagreement between the
Company and the Executive as to the Executive's Disability or
as to the date any such Disability began or ended, the same
shall be determined by a physician mutually acceptable to the
Company and the Executive. The determination of such
physician shall be conclusive evidence of any such Disability
and of the date any such Disability began or ended. The
Executive shall be available for such an examination at any
reasonable time upon prior reasonable notice thereof from the
Company. If the Executive fails or refuses to cooperate in
such examination, the determination of the Executive's
Disability and the date any such Disability began or ended
shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion.
(d) Termination by Executive. The Executive may terminate this
Agreement (i) for Good Reason at any time upon thirty (30)
days prior written notice to the Company, or (ii) at any time
upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the Company;
provided, however, the Executive shall continue to work for
the Company during such notice period unless otherwise
directed by the Company. For the purposes of the Company's
payment of severance under this Agreement, termination without
Cause (under Section 9(a)(iii)) and termination with Good
Reason (under Section 9(d)(i)) shall effectively be treated in
the
5
6
same manner for severance payment and stock option vesting
purposes. Effectively, "Good Reason" (as defined below) is
equivalent to "constructive termination" under this Agreement.
As used in this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean (A) any
material breach of this Agreement by the Company which has not
been cured within thirty (30) days of the Company's receipt of
written notice of such breach from the Executive, or as soon
thereafter as practicable so long as the Company is diligently
seeking to cure such failure or breach; or (B) a material
reduction in the Executive's titles or responsibilities unless
replaced with a new title or new responsibilities of
comparable stature or value to the Company within thirty (30)
days.
10. PAYMENTS BY COMPANY UPON TERMINATION.
(a) Within ten (10) business days following the effective date of
the termination of the Executive's employment (the
"Termination Date") if based upon the Company's termination of
the Executive with Cause as described under Section 9(a)(i);
or the Executive's death as described under Section 9(b); or
the Executive's Disability as described under Section 9(c); or
the Executive's notice of termination to the Company without
Good Reason as described under Section 9(d)(ii), then the
Company shall pay the Executive (or his estate in the case of
death per Section 9(b)) his Base Salary prorated through the
Termination Date plus any life insurance, disability or other
benefits to which the Executive is entitled in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the Company's health, welfare and
insurance plans.
(b) If the Company is merged, consolidated, acquired, sold,
liquidated, or any other disposition of all or substantially
all of its business and/or assets to a third party as
described under Section 9(a)(ii) above and in which the
Executive is not then offered an equal or better position,
salary and compensation package (as adjusted to reflect cost
of living increases), relocation package and other benefits
with said third party; or if the Company has given notice of
termination to the Executive as described under Section
9(a)(iii); or if the Executive has given notice of termination
to the Company under Section 9(d)(i), then in any one of these
circumstances, and further provided that the Executive is not
in breach of either of Sections 11 and 12 of this Agreement or
does not subsequently breach any of said sections, then
Company shall: (i) pay the Executive an amount equal to twelve
(12) months of the Executive's then current year Base Salary,
payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments from his
Termination Date; (ii) provide health, disability, life and
such other insurance benefits to the Executive and dependents
that he would have received during said twelve (12) month
period following the Termination Date had such termination not
occurred (or if such insurance plans are no longer available
[in the case of the Company's acquisition], reimbursement by
the Company to the Executive of his reasonable costs for the
same or similar insurance); and (iii) vest the Executive's
stock options in accordance with Section 10(c) below. The
obligation of the Company to pay such severance and vest stock
options is contingent upon the Executive's compliance with
Sections 11 and 12 of this Agreement (as indicated above) and
the Executive's execution of a severance and general release
agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the
Company.
6
7
(c) For purposes of vesting the unvested portions of the
Executive's outstanding stock options, if the Company is
merged, consolidated, acquired, sold, liquidated or any other
disposition of all or substantially all of its business and/or
assets to a third party as described under Section 9(a)(ii),
and provided there is no "pooling" concern, then one hundred
percent (100%) of all outstanding stock options then held by
the Executive shall vest upon the effective date of such
event. If either (i) the Company has given notice of
termination to the Executive as described under Section
9(a)(iii) of the Agreement, or (ii) the Executive has given
notice of termination to the Company under Section 9(d)(i) of
the Agreement, and provided there is no "pooling" concern,
then any of those stock options issued to the Executive
(either prior to or in connection with this Agreement) which
would have vested over the next twelve (12) month period
immediately following the Termination Date shall become fully
vested upon the Termination Date, and no further vesting of
any nature shall occur with respect to any other stock options
then held by the Executive. To the extent there would be a
"pooling" concern, the Company and the Executive agree to work
together in good faith to carry out the intent of this
provision and preserve the Company's ability to do a "pooling"
transaction. If the accelerated vesting of the options
hereunder would (x) subject the Executive to a tax pursuant to
Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision
that may be in effect), or (y) result in a disallowance of a
deduction to the Company for all or any part of the
compensation attributable to the option by reason of Section
280G of the Code (or any successor provision that may be in
effect), the Company shall reduce, eliminate or postpone the
acceleration of the vesting of the option to the extent
necessary to reduce the "present value" (as this term is
defined in Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code, or any successor
provision that may be in effect) of the compensation
attributable to the accelerated vesting to one dollar less
than an amount equal to three times the Executive's "base
amount" (as this term is defined in Sections 280G(b)(3) and
280G(d) of the Code, or any successor provisions that may be
in effect).
(d) Except as provided in subsection (a), (b) and (c) above, the
Executive (or his estate, if applicable) shall not be entitled
to receive severance pay or any other compensation upon any
termination of his employment.
11. EMPLOYMENT POLICIES. The Executive shall abide by all
policies and procedures of the Company in effect from time to time.
12. CONFIDENTIALITY AND INVENTIONS CLAUSES.
(a) The Executive agrees not to disclose the terms and conditions
of this Agreement to any other employee of the Company or any
other party except the Executive may disclose such information
to his immediate family, financial advisors or attorneys.
(b) The Executive agrees to hold in confidence and not use or
disclose without the Company's prior written consent (i) any
information (technical or otherwise) that he obtains or
creates during the term of this Agreement which pertains to
any aspect of the Company's business or (ii) any information
received in confidence by the Company from a third party,
until such information becomes generally known by the public.
The Executive shall not make any unauthorized copies of such
information and will return to the Company, upon termination
of his employment or upon the Company's request, all tangible
forms of such information, including, without limitation,
research and development projects and

financial information, partner and customer relationships, and
other information about former, current, or prospective
partners/customers, employee lists and other information
about former, current, or prospective employees, software
programs (source or object codes), know-how, new product
offerings, plans, projections, confidential business
information, copyrights, trade secrets, and any other
proprietary material.
(c) The Executive hereby assigns to the Company all of his rights
in all intellectual property (including, but not limited to,
trade secrets, know-how, inventions, copyrights, designs,
computer programs and software techniques) that the Executive
conceives or develops, in whole or in part, during his
employment with the Company. This assignment does not cover
any intellectual property which: (i) is conceived and
developed entirely on the Executive's own time; (ii) is
conceived and developed without any Company equipment,
supplies, facilities, or trade secrets; and (iii) does not
relate to Company's current or future business or to the
Company's actual or demonstrably anticipated research or
development efforts. The Executive understand that this
assignment does not cover any inventions completed prior to
his employment with the Company, which inventions are
specifically identified on the attached schedule (which
contains no confidential information). During and after the
Executive's employment with the Company, the Executive agrees
to do whatever is requested by the Company, at the Company's
expense, to sign documents or otherwise assist in obtaining,
confirming, and enforcing the Company's rights in the assigned
property throughout the world.
13. INDEMNIFICATION. The Executive shall be, and hereby is,
indemnified by the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
for all costs, claims, expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and other
litigation costs), damages and losses incurred by Executive by reason of being
employed, or serving in any capacity, as an employee or officer of the Company
or any affiliate thereof.
14. SUCCESSORS; BINDING AGREEMENT.
(a) The Company will require any successor (whether by merger,
consolidation, purchase, acquisition or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company, to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the
Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. As used in this Section 14(a), "Company"

successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which
executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this
Section or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and
provisions of this Agreement by operation of law.

8
9

construed to be, a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.
(d) Assignment. The Executive shall not assign all or any portion
of his rights, obligations, or duties under this Agreement to
any third party without the prior written approval of the
Company. Any assignment in violation of this provision shall
be void and of no force or effect.

Florida. Any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final,

9
00
xxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxx, xxxxxxxx to the Federal Arbitration
Act. The arbitrator may grant the Company injunctive relief,
including mandatory injunctive relief, to protect the rights
of the Company, but the arbitrator shall not be limited to
such relief. This arbitration provision shall not preclude
the Company from seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive
relief in a court of law to protect its rights, nor shall the
filing of such an action constitute any waiver by the Company
of its right to arbitrate. In connection with the arbitration
of any dispute between the signatories to this Agreement, each
signatory may utilize all methods of discovery authorized by
the Federal and Florida Rules of Civil Procedure.
(i) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any attached
