a period of one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days. In the event of any
disagreement between Employee and the Company as to whether Employee is
suffering from Permanent Disability, the determination of Employee's Permanent
Disability shall be made by one or more board certified licensed physicians
practicing the specialty of medicine applicable to Employee's disorder in
accordance with the provisions of this Subsection J. If either the Company or
Employee desires to initiate the procedure provided in this Section, such party
(the "Initiating Party") shall deliver written notice to the other party (the
"Responding Party") in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
specifying that the Initiating Party desires to proceed with a medical
4
examination and the procedures specified in this Section. Such notice shall
include the name, address and telephone number of the physician selected by the
Initiating party (the "Disability Examination Notice"). If the Responding Party
fails within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Disability Examination
Notice to designate a physician meeting the standards specified herein, the
physician designated by the Initiating Party in the Disability Examination
Notice shall make the determination of Permanent Disability as provided in this
Section. If the Responding Party by written notice notifies the Initiating Party
within thirty (30) days of the receipt by the Responding Party of the Disability
Examination Notice by notice specifying the physician selected by the Responding
Party for purposes of this Section, then each of the two physicians as so
designated by the respective parties shall each examine Employee. Examinations
shall be made by each such physician within thirty (30) days of such physician's
respective designation. Each physician shall render a written report as to
whether Employee is, in such physician's opinion, suffering Permanent
Disability. If the two physicians agree on the status of Employee for purposes
of this Section, such determination shall be conclusive and dispositive for all
purposes of this Section. If the two physicians cannot agree, the two physicians
shall jointly select a third physician meeting the standards specified in this
Section within thirty (30) days after the later report of the two physicians is
submitted. The third physician shall render a written report on the status of
Employee within thirty (30) days of selection and such report shall be
dispositive for purposes of this Section. For purposes of this Subsection J,

such physicians shall reasonably request for purposes of making a determination
of Permanent Disability as provided herein. Failure or refusal of the Company to
designate a licensed physician to make a determination of Permanent Disability

examination as required by this Section shall constitute a conclusive admission
by the Company or Employee, as appropriate, that Employee is suffering from a
Permanent Disability as provided herein.

Directors, setting forth in detail the matters involved, and Employee's failure
