Whereas, DataPath desires to retain Employee and Employee desires to serve as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of DataPath.

Now, therefore, for and in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I—EMPLOYMENT TERMS

Section 1.1 Employment. DataPath shall employ the Employee, and the Employee shall serve DataPath, in the capacity of Vice President and Chief Financial Officer upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Employee shall have such authority and responsibilities and duties as are consistent with his position and which may be set forth in the bylaws of DataPath or assigned by DataPath's Chief Executive Officer, Board of Directors or any committee thereof (the "Board"), or its Chairman of the Board. The Employee shall devote his full business time, attention, skill and efforts to the performance of his duties hereunder, except during periods of illness or periods of vacation and leaves of absence consistent with DataPath's company policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may devote reasonable periods of time to serve as a director or advisor to other organizations, and to perform charitable and other community activities; provided, however, that such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder and are not in conflict or competitive with, or adverse to, the interests of DataPath.

Section 1.2 Term. This Agreement shall be for a term of 18 months from the Effective Date (the "Term"), which shall be extended automatically (without further action of DataPath or the Employee) each day for an additional day so that the remaining term shall continue to be 18 months; provided, however, that either party may at any time by written notice to the other, fix the Term to a finite term of 18 months, without further automatic extension, commencing with the date of such notice (a "Fixed Term").

Section 1.3 Contingency. This Agreement is binding on all parties hereto, but it shall not become effective unless and until DataPath completes an underwritten public offering or a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A that in either event results in net proceeds to the shareholders of DataPath of no less than $400 Million (an "Offering"). If such event has not occurred on or before September 30, 2006, this Agreement shall automatically be terminated and become null and void.

Section 1.4 Compensation and Benefits.

(a) DataPath shall pay the Employee a base salary at a rate of $275,000 per annum (the "Base Salary") in accordance with the normal salary payment practices of DataPath. The Board shall review and may increase, but shall not decrease, the Employee's base salary at least annually.

(b) DataPath shall pay Employee an annual bonus of up to 80% of the Base Salary (the "Target Bonus") upon meeting the established criteria for the Target Bonus as determined by the Board, which bonus may be increased to a maximum annual bonus of up to 160% of the Base Salary (the "Maximum Bonus") upon meeting the established criteria for the Maximum Bonus as determined by the Board. The criteria and terms for the Target Bonus and Maximum Bonus for 2006 are described in Exhibit A attached hereto. All bonus programs are subject to the discretion of the Board and adjustments may be made at the discretion of the Board to take into account acquisitions, mergers, divestures and other transactions.

(c) The Employee may participate in DataPath's stock option plan and shall be eligible for the grant of stock options, restricted stock and other awards thereunder, subject to the oversight and discretion of the Board. Upon completion of an Offering, Executive shall be granted options to purchase 44,400 shares of DataPath common stock (adjusted to reflect the effect of any stock split, combination, dividend or similar event) at an exercise price equal to the price at which DataPath shares are issued in the Offering, vesting 20% per year over a period of five years, subject to the terms of the applicable option agreement. Thereafter, during the Term of this Agreement annually beginning in the first quarter of 2008 (there will be no grants in 2007 unless otherwise determined by the Board), Employee shall receive an additional grant of options to purchase shares of DataPath common stock with an exercise price equal to the then current fair market value of DataPath stock, determined in accordance with the then applicable option plan. The number of options to be granted in each instance shall be calculated as the number of options which, at the applicable exercise price, are equal in value (utilizing the Black-Scholes model or other commonly accepted option valuation technique or lattice model formula) to 200% of Employee's then current Base Salary. All grants shall vest over a period of five years, vesting 20% per year, and shall be subject to the terms of the applicable option agreement then in effect. Valuation calculations will be made and approved by the Board.

(d) The Employee shall be entitled to participate in all retirement, life and health insurance, disability and other similar benefit plans or programs of DataPath now or hereafter applicable to the Employee or applicable generally to executive employees of DataPath, including but not limited to the plans relating to the grant of stock options, restricted stock and other awards. DataPath shall maintain at least the same level of benefits for the Employee as exist under the current medical and dental plan and the current long-term care plan, provided that the Employee remains insurable under such plans at the same cost to DataPath as under the current plans.

(e) During any period during the Term that the Employee is disabled, and during the 180-day period of physical or mental infirmity leading up to the Employee's disability, the amount of the Employee's compensation provided under this Section 1.4 shall be reduced by the sum of the amounts, if any, paid to the Employee for the same period under any disability benefit or pension plan of DataPath or any of its subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 1.4(e), Employee shall be deemed "disabled" upon the earlier of: (i) a written determination by a duly licensed physician or psychologist following a personal examination of Employee that Employee is not capable of performing the normal duties attendant to his position with or without reasonable accommodation and that such condition appears to be permanent or of indefinite duration; (ii) a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that Employee is not capable of managing his or her own person or property and that such condition appears to be permanent or of indefinite duration; (iii) a determination by any duly licensed insurance company maintaining a policy of disability insurance covering the Employee that the Employee is disabled to the point that benefits are payable pursuant to the terms of such policy; or (iv) the Employee has been unable to perform the normal duties attendant to his position with or without reasonable accommodation for a continuous period of 180 days.

(f) DataPath shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable ordinary and necessary travel, conference, and other expenses related to Employee's duties which are incurred and accounted for in accordance with the normal business policies and practices of DataPath.
