and NEW JERSEY STATE MEDICAL UNDERWRITERS, INC. (the "Underwriter"), in each
case, including their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors,
agents, employees, successors and assigns (hereinafter referred to,
collectively, as the "Company"), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, including his successors,
assigns and estate (hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the "Executive").
The Company and the Executive are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as the
"Parties."
W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into an Employment Agreement, dated as
of December 15, 1999 (the "Employment Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company
has employed the Executive; and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive have mutually agreed to the
termination of the employment of the Executive under the Employment Agreement
without cause; and
WHEREAS, the Executive has been and is entitled to certain payments,
benefits and distributions under the Employment Agreement as well as certain
other agreements and plans (as hereinafter defined) to which the Parties are
party and which the Parties hereby wish to clarify and set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants
contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as
follows:
1. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT: Pursuant to Section 3.4 of the
Employment Agreement, the Executive's salaried employment with the Company
together with all accompanying benefits of employment shall be deemed
terminated, without cause, on April 13, 2001 (the "Termination Date"). The
Executive shall perform no further services for and shall have no authority to
act on behalf of the Company after the Termination Date.
The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Executive is entitled to
various benefits upon termination of employment under the various benefit plans
established by the Company as well as under certain agreements to which the
Executive and the Company are a party which are identified on Schedule 1 annexed
hereto and made a part hereof. The Parties hereby restate those benefits
together with any modifications thereto which the Parties have mutually agreed
upon as expressly provided for in this Separation Agreement.
2
It is agreed that the Executive shall not be considered an employee of
the Company after the Termination Date; accordingly, any and all benefits of
employment which are not expressly provided for herein shall not accrue to the
Executive after the Termination Date.
2. SEPARATION PAYMENTS: Subject to the Executive's acceptance and
compliance with all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Separation
Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Executive the following payments:
(i) the amount of $340,000, representing Base Salary payable from the
Termination Date through April 13, 2002, payable in a lump sum by the
Company as soon as practicable after the Effective Date hereof, less
applicable deductions, including, without limitation, federal and state
withholding and less payroll payments made to the Executive after the
Termination Date;
(ii) the amount of $340,000, representing Base Salary payable from April
14, 2002 through April 13, 2003, payable by the Company in accordance
with its normal payroll practices in 26 bi-weekly installments
commencing on or about April 14, 2002, less applicable deductions,
including, without limitation, federal and state withholding; provided,
however, that the Company shall have no obligation to make such payments
during any period the Executive is engaged in full-time employment with
any third party or as an independent consultant between April 14, 2002
and April 13, 2003. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the
Executive is engaged in full-time employment with any third party or as
an independent consultant between April 14, 2002 and April 13, 2003 at
an annual compensation rate lower than his Base Salary at the Company on
the date of his termination, the Company shall make payment or continue
to make payment under this Section 2(ii); provided, however, that for
any overlapping period of such lower-paid employment, the Executive
shall receive only payment of the difference between the bi-weekly
amount of Base Salary and the bi-weekly amount of earned compensation.
If the Executive is engaged in full-time employment with a third party
or as an independent consultant between April 14, 2002 and April 13,
2003, the Executive shall immediately notify the Company in writing by
not later than April 14, 2002 or such later date that he commences such
employment and shall immediately notify the Company in writing of any
change in his compensation from such employment. If the Executive has
received any payment from the Company under this Section 2(ii) in an
amount greater than the difference between the bi-weekly amount of Base
Salary and the bi-weekly amount of earned compensation from such
employment, he shall remit that amount to the Company and, if he fails
to do so, the Company may offset that amount from any payment due to the
Executive.

Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, representing 2001 bonus
compensation through the Termination Date pursuant to the Company's

personal time to which the Executive is entitled, payable by the Company
as soon as practicable after the Effective Date hereof, less applicable

withholding;
(v) the amount of $925, representing unreimbursed business expenses
personally incurred by the Executive, payable by the Company as soon as

deductions, including, without limitation, federal and state withholding
and less payments made or to be made by the Company for expenses
submitted by or on behalf of the Executive in the amount of $896.40.

the Executive obtains new employment under which he is entitled to such
coverage during that period;

be forfeited by the Executive, who shall have no further right or
interest therein;
(vi) continuation of car allowance expense payments by the Company to
the Executive in the amount of $1,000 per month for the lease of a 1998

4. STOCK PURCHASE AND LOAN AGREEMENTS: The Stock Purchase and Loan
Agreements, dated June 22, 1999 and December 15, 1999 (the "Stock Purchase
Agreements"), between the Company and the Executive are hereby amended as
follows:
(i) Section 1.9 of the Stock Purchase Agreements is amended to provide
that upon the termination of the Executive's employment by the Company
without cause, the Executive's obligation to pay the promissory notes
executed in connection with the stock purchases which are the subject of
such Stock Purchase Agreements (the "Promissory Notes") is extended, to
be paid, together with accrued interest thereon, on or prior to April
13, 2006, which date shall, notwithstanding Section 1.4(a) of the Stock
Purchase Agreements, be treated as the "Maturity Date" for all purposes
under the Stock Purchase Agreements, and, correspondingly, the
Executive's termination of employment without cause shall not be treated
as an Event of Default in any place in which that term is used under the
Stock Purchase Agreements;
(ii) the Executive's obligation to pay the Promissory Notes shall be
forgiven in the event of the Executive's death or total permanent
disability (to be verified by a physician selected by the Company) prior
to the Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Executive or his
estate shall have transferred to the Company following such death or
disability all right, title and interest in or to the Pledged Collateral
(as defined in Section 3.1 of the Stock Purchase Agreements) or, in the
event the fair market
4
5
value of the Pledged Collateral exceeds the amount of principal and
accrued interest owed under the Promissory Notes (the "Obligation"), the
remaining Pledged Collateral, if any, with a fair market value in excess
of the Obligation shall be promptly paid over to the Executive or his
estate, as applicable, less applicable deductions, including, without
limitation, federal and state withholding;
(iii) effective as of the Effective Date hereof, the Executive shall be
deemed to have tendered to the Company the shares of MIIX Group common
stock that immediately prior to such disposition constitutes the Pledged
Collateral under the Stock Purchase Agreements and the 8,560 shares of
MIIX Group common stock referenced in Section 3(v) of this Separation
Agreement and the Executive's Obligation to pay the Promissory Notes
shall be reduced in the amount of the fair market value of such common
stock calculated as of the date of this Separation Agreement. The
Executive shall execute and deliver to the Company such stock powers as
may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of the foregoing MIIX Group
common stock to the Company;
(iv) Section 3.1 of the Stock Purchase Agreements is amended to provide
that the stock options represented by the Stock Option Agreements and
the Phantom Stock Options referenced in Section 2(iii) of this
Separation Agreement are hereby substituted as the Pledged Collateral in
lieu and in place of the Pledged Collateral specified in Sections 3.1(a)
and (b) of the Stock Purchase Agreements (the "Purchased Shares" of the
Stock Purchase Agreements).
All other terms of the Stock Purchase Agreements and the Promissory Notes not
inconsistent with the foregoing, shall remain in full force and effect. For
purposes of this Section 4, "fair market value" shall have the meaning given
such term in Section 2.15.1 or 2.15.2 of the MIIX Group, Incorporated Amended
and Restated 1998 Long Term Incentive Equity Plan as in effect on June 1, 2001.
In addition, the term "market price" under the Phantom Stock Options referenced
in Section 2(iii) shall have the meaning ascribed to "fair market value" under
the preceding sentence.
As of the end of each calendar quarter, and within 10 business days of
the close of such calendar quarter, the Company shall provide the Executive with
a written statement showing the unpaid principal and accrued interest to date.
5. STOCK OPTION AGREEMENTS: MIIX Group and the Executive are
parties to the following Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreements (the "Stock
Option Agreements"):
(i) Option No. 2, effective July 29, 1999, granting to the Executive
an option to purchase 80,000 shares of MIIX Group common stock at $13.50
per share;
5
6
(ii) Option No. 77, effective December 15, 1999, granting to the
Executive an option to purchase 40,000 shares of MIIX Group common stock
at $11.90625 per share; and
(iii) Option No. 311, effective March 7, 2001, granting to the Executive
an option to purchase 90,000 shares of MIIX Group common stock at $7.45
per share.
The Stock Option Agreements are subject to various vesting schedules and
Expiration Dates (as defined in the Stock Option Agreements). It is further
agreed between MIIX Group and the Executive that, notwithstanding any provision
of the Stock Option Agreements to the contrary, all options subject to the Stock
Option Agreements are deemed fully vested as of the Effective Date hereof and
may be exercised by the Executive all or in parts (but not for less than a whole
share) at any time up to and including April 13, 2006. As of April 14, 2006, any
such stock option or portion thereof that remains unexercised shall expire and
may no longer be exercised. It is also agreed between MIIX Group and the
Executive that, notwithstanding any provision of the Stock Option Agreements to
the contrary, the stock options or portions thereof under the Stock Option
Agreements that the Executive designates for exercise shall be treated as
phantom stock options as and when the Executive makes the designation, such that
as of each designation date MIIX Group shall pay the difference between the
option ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and the fair market value of the MIIX Group common stock
under the Stock Option Agreements for the portion thereof being exercised. Any
such payment (less applicable deductions, including, without limitation, federal
and state withholding) shall be applied first in reduction of the Executive's
Obligation under the Promissory Notes until such Obligation is satisfied in full
and then paid to the Executive. For purposes of this Section 5, "fair market
value" shall have the meaning given such term in Section 2.15.1 or 2.15.2 of the
MIIX Group, Incorporated Amended and Restated 1998 Long Term Incentive Equity
Plan as in effect on June 1, 2001.
Any and all dividends which may be declared prior to the expiration or
earlier exercise of the options with respect to the MIIX Group common stock
which is the subject of the Stock Option Agreements shall automatically be
applied to the Executive's Obligation under the Promissory Notes until such
Obligation is satisfied in full. All other terms of the Stock Option Agreements
not inconsistent with the foregoing, shall remain in full force and effect.
6. TRANSFER OF SECURITIES: The Executive acknowledges that certain
or all of the securities of the Company which he may currently own or which he
may be entitled to receive or purchase pursuant to the benefits set forth herein
are subject to restrictions on the transferability thereof as a result of
applicable law and the agreements pursuant to which such securities were
acquired. The Executive further acknowledges that transactions in the

to regulatory reporting requirements on the part of the Company and the
Executive.
