All of such services and the results and proceeds thereof, including without limitation, the Properties and rights referenced herein (all such material, services and the results and proceeds thereof being referred collectively herein as the “Material”), rendered by Employee hereunder were and/or will be created by Employee as a “work-made-for-hire” specially ordered or commissioned by Company, with Company being deemed the sole author of the Material and the sole and exclusive owner of all rights in and to the Material.  To the extent, if at all, the Material may be determined not to be a “work-made-for-hire”, all of the above-referenced rights in it shall be deemed transferred and assigned to Company by this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, these rights shall include all motion picture, television, radio, dramatic, musical, publication and other rights in and to the Properties, including the sole and exclusive right to photograph and record the same with or without dialogue, music and other sounds synchro­nously recorded, and to perform, exhibit, distribute, reproduce, transmit, broadcast or otherwise communicate the same and/or motion picture, dramatic or other versions or adaptations thereof, theatrically, non-theatrically and/or by means of television, radio, the legitimate stage and/or any other means now known Or hereafter devised and to manufacture, publish and vend printed and/or recorded versions or adaptations thereof, either publicly or privately and for profit or otherwise.

If verification is provided, the non-deductibility of such expenses for tax purposes shall not affect Employee's right to reim­bursement.

2.5.  Directors and Officers Liability, Errors and Omissions, General Comprehensive Liability and Worker’s Compensation Insurance. Employee shall be entitled to the protection of any insurance policies the Company may elect to maintain  generally for the benefit of its directors and officers against all costs, charges and expenses whatsoever in­curred or sustained by Employee or his legal representa­tives in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which Employee (or his legal representatives or other successors) may be made a party by reason of Employee being or having been a director or officer of Company or Employee serving or having served any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee at the request of the Company, provided that the Company shall use its best ef­forts to cause to be maintained in effect for the period commencing on the date hereof and including not less than three years from the date the term ends policies of director and officers' liability insurance of at least the same coverage as those maintained by the Company as of the date hereof and containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous than such policies.

3. Termination.

If any of the events described in this Para­graph 3 shall occur, Employee shall be entitled to the benefits provided in Paragraph 4 hereof upon the subse­quent termination of Employee's employment during the Term. As used in this Agreement, "Date of Termination" means (i) if employment is terminated for Disability (as defined in Paragraph 3.1 below), thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination is given (provided that Employee shall not have returned to the performance of his duties on a full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period), and (ii) if employment is terminated for any other reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of termination “For Cause" pursuant to Paragraph 3.3 shall not be less than thirty (30) days, and in the case of a termination for "Good Reason" pursuant to Paragraph 3.4 shall not be more than sixty (60) days, respectively, from the date such Notice of Termination is given); provided that, if within thirty (30) days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies all other parties that a dispute exists concerning the termination (a "Notice of Dispute”), the Date of Termination for purposes of determining Employee's con­tinued right to compensation under Paragraph 2.1 hereof shall be the date on which the dispute is finally deter­mined either by mutual written agreement of the parties, by a binding arbitration award, or by a final judgment, order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal therefore having expired and no appeal having been perfected); and provided further that the Date of Termination shall be extended by a Notice of Dispute only if such notice is given in good faith and the party giving such notice pursues the resolution of such dispute with reasonable diligence. In addition, if the Company acknowledges that it has terminated Em­ployee other than “For Cause" (as hereinafter defined), the Date of Termination shall be the date upon which Employee receives payments due to him under Paragraph 4.4 hereof. "Notice of Termination" means a writ­ten notice that shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of employment under the provision so indicated. The sole bases for termination of the Term shall be:

3.1. Disability. If, as a result of Employee's incapacity because of physical or mental illness, Employee shall have been absent from his duties with the Company on a full-time basis for six consecutive months, and within 30 days after written Notice of Termi­nation is given he shall not have returned to the full­time performance of his duties, the Company may terminate Employee's employment for "Disability”

3.2.  Retirement. Termination by the Company or Employee of Employee's employment based on "Retirement” shall mean termination in accordance with the Company's retirement policy or policies, including early retire­ment, generally applicable to its salaried employees or in accordance with any retirement arrangement established with Employee's consent, and in the event of termination of Employee's employment based upon Retirement, Employee shall be compensated in accordance with such policies and arrangements.

3

3.3. Termination by the Company "For Cause” Termination by the Company of Employee's employment “For Cause”, shall mean termination upon (i) the willful and continued failure by Employee substantially to perform his duties with the Company in good faith (other than any such failure resulting from his incapacity because of physical or mental illness or any such actual or antici­pated failure resulting from his termination for “Good Reason”), after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to him by the Board that specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Employee has not substantially performed his duties in good faith, or (ii) the willful engaging by Employee in conduct that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this Paragraph 3.3, no act, or failure to act, on Employee's act shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted to be done, by Employee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be deemed to have been terminated For Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to Employee written Notice of Termination and a copy of resolutions duly adopted by a majority of the members of the Board at a meeting called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice to Employee and an opportunity for Employee, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board) finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Employee was guilty of conduct set forth above in clause (i) or (ii) of the first sentence of this Paragraph 3.3 and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

3.4. Employee's Termination for Good Reason. Employee shall be entitled to terminate Employee’s employment for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the commission or omission of the following actions at any time after Employee no longer controls, directly or indirectly, the voting rights with respect to that number of shares of the voting securities of the Company necessary to elect a majority of the directors of the Company:

A.           The assignment to Employee of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with his status set forth in Paragraphs 1.1 and 1.6 hereof, the assignment of any duties or rights of Employee hereunder to any other person, or a change in Employee’s reporting duties, as set forth herein.

B.         A reduction by the Company of the Fixed Annual Compensation or the Bonus Pool.

C.         The failure by the Company to contin­ue in effect any compensation plan in which Employee participates, or any substitute plans hereafter adopted (other than in connection with an “across the board” modification to a plan generally available to the Company's employees), unless an equitable ar­rangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative plan) has been made with respect to such plan or the failure by the Company to continue Employee’s participation therein.

D.         Any purported termination of Employee's employment that is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination; and for purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination shall be effective.

E.         A Change in Control of the Company (as defined below).

3.5. Change in Control.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control of the Company” shall be deemed to have occurred if any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13 (d) and 14 (d) of the Exchange Act and the Regulations promulgated there under), acquires, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the Full Voting Power of the Company.  “Full Voting Power” shall mean the right to vote in the election of one or more directors through proxy or by the beneficial ownership of the common stock or other securities then entitled to vote in the election of one or more directors.  For purposes of calculating the percentage ownership of Full Voting Power of a person, all warrants, option or rights held by all persons with respect to the Company shall be deemed to have been exercised and all convertible or exchangeable securities shall be deemed to have been converted or exchanged, as the case may be disregarding for such purposes any restrictions on conversion, voting (such as proxies), exchange or exercise, in each case for the maximum number of shares of the common stock or other securities entitled to then vote in the election of one or more directors.

3.6   Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of employ­ment by Employee pursuant to Paragraph 3.4 thereof shall be made, in addition to any other requirements that may be set forth herein, by giving Notice of Termination within six months of the action set forth above giving rise to the right to terminate for Good Reason. The failure of Employee to give Notice of Termination within such period shall not be construed to prevent the giving of Notice  of Termination upon the next occurrence of such action or upon the occurrence of another action set forth in Paragraph 3.4 hereof. The Company shall have 30 days after receipt of the Notice of Termination to cure the event giving rise to Employee's right to terminate for Good Reason. Employee's right to terminate his employment pursuant to Paragraph 3.4 hereof shall not be affected by his incapacity due to physical or mental illness. Any purported termination by the Company or by Employee shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto.

3.7  Remedies. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a failure or omission by Company constituting a breach of its obligations hereunder, the damage, if any, caused or Employee by such breach shall not be considered as irreparable or sufficient to entitle Employee to injunctive or other equitable relief. Consequently, Employee’s rights and remedies hereunder shall be limited to the right, if any, to obtain damages at law and Employee shall have no right in such event to enjoin or restrain the distribution or exhibition of any Seven Arts Pictures.

4. Compensation upon Termination

Upon such payments, the Company shall have no further liability or obligation hereunder to the deceased Employee's estate, his executors or administrators, his heirs or assigns or any other person claiming under or through him.

4.2. Disability of Employee. Upon the termination of Employee's employment as a result of his Disability, Employee shall be entitled to receive (i) 100% of Employee's Fixed Annual Compensation for an additional six months (“Disability Date”), (ii) whatever Bonus which may become due and payable to Employee from time to time in the ordinary course of business pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and (iii) all Options and Additional Compensation vested through the Disability Date.

4.3. Termination For Cause. If Employee’s employ­ment shall be terminated For Cause, the Company shall pay Employee the full Fixed Annual Compensation, whatever Bonus that has become due and payable to Employee on or prior to the Date of Termination and other benefits to which Employee is entitled through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given.

4.4. Termination Other Than For Cause, Retirement, Death or Disability or For Good Reason. If Employee's employment by the Company shall be terminated (i) by the Company other than For Cause, Retirement, Death or Disability or (ii) by Employee for Good Reason, then Employee shall he entitled to the benefits provided below:

A.         The Company shall pay Employee, no later than the fifth day following the Date of Termination, a lump sum equal to 299% of the aggregate of all Fixed Annual Compensation payments arising under Paragraph 2.1 hereof discounted (to the then present value) at a discount rate of 5% per annum applied to each future payment from the time it would have become payable up to the Date of Termina­tion.

B.         All Options granted to Employee shall fully vest and be exercisable at any time by Employee and Employee shall receive such other Additional Compensation to which it would be entitled for the balance of the Term as if such termination had not occurred. Employee shall have all his rights under Paragraphs 1.9 and 1.10 with respect to all motion pictures therein referred to.

C.         Employee and the Company will review a list of all pro­jects in development during the Term (regardless of whether or not such projects previously have been set for production or such projects previously have been aban­doned or deemed abandoned) (the "Listed Properties") and all such Listed Projects originated by Employee or in existence on commencement of Term shall be assigned to Employee who will assume all Company’s obligations therefore under a customary “turnaround” agreement and pay to Company on commencement of principal photography of a motion picture based on a Listed Property all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Company and not previously reimbursed for such Listed Property.

4.5. No Mitigation. Employee shall not be re­quired to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or other­wise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 4 be reduced by any compen­sation earned by Employee as the result of employment by another employer or by retirement benefits after the Date of Termination. The Company shall not be entitled to any rights to offset, mitigate or otherwise reduce the amounts owing to Employee by virtue of this Section 4 with respect to any rights, claims or damages that the Company may have against  Employee.

4.6. Potential Taxes. Should any payments hereunder or contemplated hereby be subject to excise tax pursuant to section 4999 of the Code or any successor or similar provision thereto, or comparable state or local tax laws, the Company shall pay to Employee such addi­tional compensation as is necessary (after taking into account all Federal, state and local income taxes payable by Employee as a result of receipt of such compensation) to place Employee in the same after-tax position that he would have been in had no such excise tax (or any inter­est or penalties thereon) been paid or incurred. The Company shall pay such additional compensation upon the earlier of (i) the time at which the Company is required to withhold such excise tax for any payments to Employee or (ii) 30 days after Employee notifies the Company that Employee has filed a tax return that takes the position that such excise tax is due and payable in reliance on a written opinion of Employee's tax counsel that it is more likely than not that such excise tax is due and payable. If Employee makes any payment with respect to, any such excise tax as a result of an adjustment to Employees tax liability by any Federal, state or local authority, the Company will pay such additional compensation within 30 days after Employee notifies the Company of such payment. Without limiting the obligation of the Company hereunder, Employee agrees, in the event Employee makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence, to negotiate with the Company in good faith with respect to procedures reason­ably requested by the Company that would afford the Company the ability to contest the imposition of such excise tax; provided, however, that Employee will not be required to afford the Company any right to contest the applicability of any such excise tax to the extent that Employee reasonably determines that such contest is inconsistent with the overall tax interests of Employee. The Company agrees to hold in confidence and not to dis­close, without Employee's prior written consents, any information with regard to Employee's tax position that the Company obtains pursuant to this Paragraph 4.6.

5. General.

5.1. Applicable Law Controls. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require the commission of any act contrary to law and wherever there is any conflict between any provisions of this Agreement and any material statute, law, ordinance or regulation contrary to which the parties have no legal right to contract, then the latter shall prevail; provide however, that in any such event the provisions of this Agree­ment so affected shall be curtailed and limited to the extent necessary to bring them within applicable legal requirements, and provided further that if any obligation to pay the Fixed Annual Compensation, bonuses or any other amount due Employee hereunder is so curtailed, then such compensation or amount shall be paid as soon thereafter, either during or subse­quent to the Term, as permissible.
