and that no other compensation, other than what has previously been paid or is
stated as payable hereunder, is due and owing to Employee, whether accrued or
unpaid under any previous employment agreements or otherwise (it being expressly
understood and agreed to that any and all claims for any prior compensation have
been satisfied in full and/or waived by the Employee in their entirety).

Option shall be the number and price set forth in Section 4.1(ii) hereto,
subject to any adjustments which may be made pursuant to Section 5.9 below.
5.2 Duration. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
Option may be exercised to purchase the Option Shares covered by the Option on
or before expiration of the term of this Employment Agreement, as described in
Section 2 herein (the "Expiration Date"). The Option shall terminate and no
Shares may be purchased after the Expiration Date.
5.3 Employment Requirement. Except as provided in Section 5.7 herein,
the Option may not be exercised unless the Employee is in the employ of the
Company or one of its parent or subsidiary corporations (as within the meaning
of Section 425(e) and (f) of the Code respectively) on the date of such exercise
and shall have been such employee continuously since the Employment Date.
5.4 Exercise Procedure. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Option is exercisable by a written notice signed by the Employee and
delivered to the Company at its executive offices, signifying the Employee's
election to exercise the Option. The notice must state the number of Shares as
to which the Employee's Option is being exercised, must contain a statement by
the Employee (in a form acceptable to the Company) that such Shares are being
acquired by the Employee for investment and not with a view to their
distribution or resale (unless a Registration Statement covering the Shares has
been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission) and must be
accompanied by the full purchase price of the Shares being purchased. Payment
shall be in cash, or by certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order
of the Company, free from all collection charges.
If notice of the exercise of the Option is given by the person or persons
other than the Employee, the Company may require, as a condition to the exercise
of the Option, the submission to the Company of appropriate proof of the right
of such person or person to exercise the Option.
Certificate for Shares so purchased will be issued as soon as practicable
and shall bear a restrictive legend stating that the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, that the shares have been acquired
for investment purposes and not with a view to distribution or resale, and that
the Shares may not be sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise
transferred without an effective registration statement for such shares under
the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state securities laws or an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that registration is not
required under such laws. The Company, however, shall not be required to issue
or deliver a certificate for any Shares until it has complied with all
3
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, any stock exchange on which the Company's Stock may
then be listed and all applicable state laws in connection with the issuance or
sale of such Shares or the listing of such Shares on such exchange. Until the
issuance of the certificate for such Shares, the Employee or such other person
as may be entitled to exercise the Option, shall have none of the rights of a
stockholder with respect to Shares subject to the Option.
5.5 Delivery of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the Company
receives payment for the Shares, it shall deliver a certificate or certificates
representing the Shares so purchased to the Employee.
5.6 Transferability. The Option is personal to the Employee and during
the Employee's lifetime may be exercised only by the Employee. The Option shall
not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
5.7 Expiration. In the event that an option holder ceases to be an
employee of the Company or of any subsidiary for any reason other than permanent
disability (as determined by the Board of Directors) or death, the Option,
including any unexercised portion thereof, which was otherwise exercisable on
the date of termination, shall expire unless exercised within a period of three
months from the date on which the Employee ceased to be so employed, but in no
event after the Expiration Date. In the event of the death of Employee during
this three month period, the Option shall be exercisable by his or her personal
representatives, heirs or legatees to the same extent that the Employee could
have exercised the Option if he or she had not died, for the three months from
the date of death, but in no event after the expiration of the four (4) year
period from the Effective Date of this Agreement.
5.8 Employment Rights. The Option does not confer on the Employee any
right to continue in the employ of the Company or interfere in any way with the
right of the Company to determine the terms of the Employee's employment.
5.9 Change in Corporate Structure. In the event of a reorganization,
recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger,
consolidation, rights offering, or any other change in the corporate structure
or Stock of the Company, the Board shall make such adjustments, if any, as it
deems appropriate in the number and kind of shares covered by the Option, or in
the Option price, or both. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the
Committee or the Board may cancel, amend, alter or supplement any term or
provision of the Option to avoid any penalty provisions of the Code.
5.10 Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Option shall be subject to
the requirement that if at any time the Board shall determine that the
registration, listing or qualification of the Shares covered hereby upon any
securities exchange or under any federal or state law, or the consent or
approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a
condition of, or in connection with, the granting of the Option or the purchase
of the Shares, the Option may not be exercised unless and until such
registration, listing, qualification, consent or approval shall have been
effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The
Board may require that the person exercising the Option shall make such
representations and agreements and furnish such information as it deems
appropriate to assure compliance with the foregoing or any other applicable
legal requirements.
4
5.11 Incentive Stock Option Treatment. The Option is intended to qualify
for "incentive stock option" treatment under the provisions of Section 422A of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended. However, the Employee is urged to
consult with his or her individual tax advisor prior to exercising the Option
since the exercise of the Option may result in adverse tax consequences
including the payment of additional federal and/or state income taxes.
5.12 Restrictions on Resale of Shares Acquired Upon Exercise of Options.
Employee represents and agrees that if Employee exercises this Option in whole
or in part, Employee will in each case hold the Shares acquired upon such
exercise for a period of at least one year. Further, certificates for Shares so
purchased shall bear a restrictive legend stating that the certificate and the
securities represented by such certificate and all rights therein are subject to
and transferable (including without limitation by way of pledge or other grant
of a security interest therein) only in accordance with the provisions of a
certain Employment Agreement effective as of January 1, 2006 and a certain Stock
Option Agreement dated as of January 1, 2006, among the Company and the
Employee, which restrict the transfer of these shares. A copy of such
agreements, as may be amended from time to time, are on file and available for
inspection at the principal office of the Company.
5.13 Change in Control. The option agreement will contain a provision
that in the event there shall have been a Change in Control of the Company while
the Employee is employed by the Company, all unvested stock options shall
immediately and irrevocably vest and the exercise period of such options shall
remain the same as originally provided in such options. For purposes of the
option agreement, a "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if (i)
there shall be consummated any consolidation or merger of the Company in which
the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation or pursuant to which
shares of the Company's Common Stock would be converted into cash, securities or
other property, other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of the
Company's Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have substantially the
same proportionate ownership of common stock of the surviving corporation
immediately after the merger, or (ii) any person (as such term is used in
Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act")), other than the Company or any employee benefit plan sponsored
by the Company, shall become the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of securities of the Company representing 50.1% or
more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities
ordinarily (and apart from rights accruing in special circumstances) having the
right to vote in the election of directors, as a result of a tender or exchange
offer, open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases or otherwise.

6. Insurance.
6.1 Key Man Insurance. The Company shall have the right to apply for and
take out, in the Company's own name or otherwise, at the Company's expense,
life, health, accident, or other insurance covering Employee, in any amount the
Company deems necessary to protect the Company's interest hereunder, and
Employee shall have no right, title or interest in or to any such insurance.
Employee shall assist the Company in obtaining such insurance by submitting to
usual and customary medical and other examinations and by signing such
applications, statements and other instruments as may be reasonably required by
any insurance company.
7. Business Expenses. During the Term, Employee shall be entitled to
receive reimbursement for all reasonable business expenses incurred by him (in
accordance with the policies and procedures from time to time adopted by the
Board of Directors of the Company for its senior executives and consultants) in
performing services hereunder, provided that Employee properly accounts
therefore in accordance with such policy and procedures and such expenses have
been specifically approved in advance. Moreover, Employee expressly acknowledges
and agrees that prior verbal approval must be obtained from the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company by Employee for expense greater than one hundred dollars
($100), and prior written approval for expenses greater than three hundred
dollars ($300).
8. Confidentiality. Employee recognizes and acknowledges that the
technology, including but not limited to specifications, programs,
documentation, methods and data which The Company owns, plans or develops,
whether for its own use or for use by its clients, developments, designs,
inventions and improvements, trade secrets and works of authorship are
confidential and are the property of the Company. Employee also recognizes that
the Company's customer lists, supplier lists, proposals and procedures are
confidential and are the property of the Company. Employee further recognizes
and acknowledges that in order to enable the Company to perform services for its
clients, those clients may furnish to the Company confidential information
concerning their business affairs, property, methods of operation or other data;
that the goodwill afforded to the Company depends upon, among other things, the
Company and its employees keeping such services and information confidential.
All of these materials and information including that relating to the Company's
systems and the Company's clients, will be referred to below as "Proprietary
Information."
9. Non-Disclosure. Employee agrees that, except as directed by the Company,
and in the ordinary course of the Company's business, Employee will not at any
time, whether during or after Employee's employment with the Company, disclose
to any person or use, directly or indirectly, for Employee's own benefit or the
benefit of others, any Proprietary Information, or permit any person to examine
or make copies of any documents which may contain or is derived from Proprietary
Information, whether prepared by Employee or otherwise coming into Employee's
possession or control. Employee agrees that the provisions of this paragraph
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Employee's employment by the
Company.
6
10. Possession. Employee agrees that upon request by the Company, and in
any event upon termination of Employee's employment, Employee shall then over to
the Company all documents, papers or other material in Employee's possession or
under Employee's control which may contain or be derived from Proprietary
Information, together with all documents, notes or Employee's work products
which are connected with or derived from Employee's services to the Company,
shall be either returned to the Company or, as appropriate, permanently deleted.
Upon termination of Employee's employment with the Company, Employee agrees to
pay in full any amount owned the Company.
11. Ownership. Employee hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company
or its subsidiaries or affiliates, as appropriate, its successors, assigns or
nominees, Employee's entire right, title and interest in any developments,
designs, patents, inventions and improvements, trade secrets, trademarks,
copyrightable subject matter or proprietary information which Employee has made
or conceived, or may make or conceive, either solely or jointly with others,
while providing services to the Company, or with the use of the time, material
or facilities of the Company or relating to any actual or anticipated business,
research, development, product, service or activity of the Company known to
Employee while employed at the Company, or suggested by or resulting from any
task assigned to Employee or work performed by Employee for or on behalf of the
Company, whether or not such work was performed prior to the date of this
Agreement.
12. Injunctive Relief. Employee acknowledges that disclosure of any
Proprietary Information by Employee or breach by Employee of any of the
covenants not to compete will give rise to irreparable injury to the Company, or
clients of the Company. Employee also agrees that this injury to the Company, or
clients of the Company, would be inadequately compensated in money damages
alone. Accordingly, the Company or, where appropriate the client of the Company,
may seek and obtain injunctive relief against the breach, or threatened breach,
of the disclosure of any Proprietary Information by Employee, or breach by
Employee of any of the covenants not to compete, in addition to any other legal
remedies which may be available. The Company further acknowledges that the
enforcement of a remedy hereunder by way of injunction would not prevent
Employee from earning a reasonable livelihood since Employee's experience and
capabilities would be such that in the event that Employee's employment with the
Company terminates for any reason, Employee will be able to obtain employment in
business activities which are not restricted by this Agreement.
13. Non-Competition.

13.2 Covenant. Employee agrees that because of the confidential and
sensitive nature of the Proprietary Information and because the use of, or even

to clients of the Company, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Company, own (except that Employee may own not more than one percent (1%)

corporation or other entity the securities of which are traded on a national
stock exchange or listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers

Company.

15.2 No Termination by the Company Without Cause. The Company shall not
have the right to terminate Employee's engagement hereunder without Cause.
