shall be equal to that portion of Employee's accrued pension under Employer's
Management Pension Plan ("CBMPP") which is attributable to Employee's first
five years of service with Employer.
(ii) If Employee's employment with Employer terminates on or after
April 8, 2006, the non-qualified pension shall be equal to that portion of

(iv) Nothing contained in this section 6(G) shall be construed to
give Employee any right to continued employment except under the express

7. CONFIDENTIALITY. Employer and its Affiliates are engaged in the
telecommunications industry within the U.S. Employee acknowledges that in the
course of employment with the Employer, Employee will be entrusted with or
obtain access to information proprietary to the Employer and its Affiliates
with respect to the following (all of which information is referred to
hereinafter collectively as the "Information"); the organization and
management of Employer and its Affiliates; the names, addresses, buying
habits, and other special information regarding past, present and potential
customers, employees and suppliers of Employer and its Affiliates; customer
and supplier contracts and transactions or price lists of Employer, its
Affiliates and their suppliers; products, services, programs and processes
sold, licensed or developed by the Employer or its Affiliates; technical
data, plans and specifications, present and/or future development projects of
Employer and its Affiliates; financial and/or marketing data respecting the
conduct of the present or future phases of business of Employer and its
Affiliates; computer programs, systems and/or software; ideas, inventions,
trademarks, business information, know-how, processes, improvements, designs,
redesigns, discoveries and developments of Employer and its Affiliates; and
other information considered confidential by any of the Employer, its
Affiliates or customers or suppliers of Employer, its Affiliates. Employee
agrees to retain the Information in absolute
3
confidence and not to disclose the Information to any person or organization
except as required in the performance of Employee's duties for Employer,
without the express written consent of Employer; provided that Employee's
obligation of confidentiality shall not extend to any Information which
becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of
disclosure by Employee.
8. NEW DEVELOPMENTS. All ideas, inventions, discoveries, concepts,
trademarks, or other developments or improvements, whether patentable or not,
conceived by the Employee, alone or with others, at any time during the term
of Employee's employment, whether or not during working hours or on
Employer's premises, which are within the scope of or related to the business
operations of Employer or its Affiliates ("New Developments"), shall be and
remain the exclusive property of Employer. Employee shall do all things
reasonably necessary to ensure ownership of such New Developments by
Employer, including the execution of documents assigning and transferring to
Employer, all of Employee's rights, title and interest in and to such New
Developments, and the execution of all documents required to enable Employer
to file and obtain patents, trademarks, and copyrights in the United States
and foreign countries on any of such New Developments.
9. SURRENDER OF MATERIAL UPON TERMINATION. Employee hereby agrees that upon
cessation of Employee's employment, for whatever reason and whether voluntary
or involuntary, Employee will immediately surrender to Employer all of the
property and other things of value in his possession or in the possession of
any person or entity under Employee's control that are the property of
Employer or any of its Affiliates, including without any limitation all
personal notes, drawings, manuals, documents, photographs, or the like,
including copies and derivatives thereof, relating directly or indirectly to
any confidential information or materials or New Developments, or relating
directly or indirectly to the business of Employer or any of its Affiliates.
10. REMEDIES.
A. Employer and Employee hereby acknowledge and agree that the services
rendered by Employee to Employer, the information disclosed to Employee
during and by virtue of Employee's employment, and Employee's commitments and
obligations to Employer and its Affiliates herein are of a special, unique
and extraordinary character, and that the breach of any provision of this
Agreement by Employee will cause Employer irreparable injury and damage, and
consequently the Employer shall be entitled to, in addition to all other
remedies available to it, injunctive and equitable relief to prevent a breach
of Sections 7,8,9,11 and 12 of this Agreement and to secure the enforcement
of this Agreement.
B. Except as provided in Section 10.A., the parties agree to submit to
final and binding arbitration any dispute, claim or controversy, whether for
breach of this Agreement or for violation of any of Employee's statutorily
created or protected rights, arising between the parties that either party
would have been otherwise entitled to file or
4
pursue in court or before any administrative agency (herein "claim"), and
waives all right to xxx the other party.
(i) This agreement to arbitrate and any resulting
arbitration award are enforceable under and subject to the Federal
Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et seq. ("FAA"). If the FAA is held not
to apply for any reason then Ohio Revised Code Chapter 2711 regarding the
enforceability of arbitration agreements and awards will govern this
Agreement and the arbitration award.
(ii) (a) All of a party's claims must be presented at a
single arbitration hearing. Any claim not raised at the arbitration hearing
is waived and released. The arbitration hearing will take place in
Cincinnati, Ohio.
(b) The arbitration process will be governed by the
Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA") except to the extent they are modified by this Agreement.
(c) Employee has had an opportunity to review the
AAA rules and the requirements that Employee must pay a filing fee for which
the Employer has agreed to split on an equal basis.
(d) The arbitrator will be selected from a panel of
arbitrators chosen by the AAA in White Plains, New York. After the filing of
a Request for Arbitration, the AAA will send simultaneously to Employer and
Employee an identical list of names of five persons chosen from the panel.
Each party will have 10 days from the transmittal date in which to strike up
to two names, number the remaining names in order of preference and return
the list to the AAA.
(e) Any pre-hearing disputes will be presented to
the arbitrator for expeditious, final and binding resolution.
(f) The award of the arbitrator will be in writing
and will set forth each issue considered and the arbitrator's finding of fact
and conclusions of law as to each such issue.
(g) The remedy and relief that may be granted by
the arbitrator to Employee are limited to lost wages, benefits, cease and
desist and affirmative relief, compensatory, liquidated and punitive damages
and reasonable attorney's fees, and will not include reinstatement or
promotion. If the arbitrator would have awarded reinstatement or promotion,
but for the prohibition in this Agreement, the arbitrator may award front
pay. The arbitrator may assess to either party, or split, the arbitrator's
fee and expenses and the cost of the transcript, if any, in accordance with
the arbitrator's determination of the merits of each party's position, but
each party will bear any cost for its witnesses and proof.
5
(h) Employer and Employee recognize that a primary
benefit each derives from arbitration is avoiding the delay and costs
normally associated with litigation. Therefore, neither party will be
entitled to conduct any discovery prior to the arbitration hearing except
that: (i) Employer will furnish Employee with copies of all non-privileged
documents in Employee's personnel file; (ii) if the claim is for discharge,
Employee will furnish Employer with records of earnings and benefits relating
to Employee's subsequent employment (including self-employment) and all
documents relating to Employee's efforts to obtain subsequent employment;
(iii) the parties will exchange copies of all documents they intend to
introduce as evidence at the arbitration hearing at least 10 days prior to
such hearing; (iv) Employee will be allowed (at Employee's expense) to take
the depositions, for a period not to exceed four hours each, of two
representatives of Employer, and Employer will be allowed (at its expense) to
depose Employee for a period not to exceed four hours; and (v) Employer or
Employee may ask the arbitrator to grant additional discovery to the extent
permitted by AAA rules upon a showing that such discovery is necessary.
(i) Nothing herein will prevent either party from
taking the deposition of any witness where the sole purpose for taking the
deposition is to use the deposition in lieu of the witness testifying at the
hearing and the witness is, in good faith, unavailable to testify in person
at the hearing due to poor health, residency and employment more than 50
miles from the hearing site, conflicting travel plans or other comparable
reason.
(j) Arbitration must be requested in writing no
later than 6 months from the date of the party's knowledge of the matter
disputed by the claim. A party's failure to initiate arbitration within the
time limits herein will be considered a waiver and release by that party with
respect to any claim subject to arbitration under this Agreement.
(k) Employer and Employee consent that judgment
upon the arbitration award may be entered in any federal or state court that
has jurisdiction.
(l) Except as provided in Section 10.A., neither
party will commence or pursue any litigation on any claim that is or was
subject to arbitration under this Agreement.
(m) All aspects of any arbitration procedure under
this Agreement, including the hearing and the record of the proceedings, are
confidential and will not be open to the public, except to the extent the
parties agree otherwise in writing, or as may be appropriate in any
subsequent proceedings between the parties, or as may otherwise be
appropriate in response to a governmental agency or legal process.

11. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. For purposes of this Section 11 only, the term
"Employer" shall mean, collectively, Employer and each of its Affiliates.
During the two-year period following termination of Employee's employment
with Employer for any reason (or if this period is unenforceable by law, then
for such period as shall be enforceable) Employee will not engage in any
business offering services related to the current business of Employer,
whether as a principal, partner, joint venture, agent, employee, salesman,
consultant, director or officer, where such position would involve Employee
in any business activity in competition with Employer. This restriction will
be limited to the geographical area where Employer is then engaged in such
competing business activity or to such other geographical area as a court
shall find reasonably necessary to protect the goodwill and business of the
Employer.
During the two-year period following termination of Employee's
employment with Employer for any reason (or if this period is unenforceable
by law, then for such period as shall be enforceable) Employee will not
interfere with or adversely affect, either directly or indirectly, Employer's
relationships with any person, firm, association, corporation or other entity
which is known by Employee to be, or is included on any listing to which
Employee had access during the course of employment as a customer, client,
supplier, consultant or employee of Employer and that Employee will not
divert or change, or attempt to divert or change, any such relationship to
the detriment of Employer or to the benefit of any other person, firm,
association, corporation or other entity.
During the two-year period following termination of Employee's
employment with Employer for any reason (or if this period is unenforceable
by law, then for such period as shall be enforceable) Employee shall not,
without the prior written consent of Employer, accept employment, as an
employee, consultant, or otherwise, with any company or entity which is a
customer or supplier of Employer at any time during the final year of
Employee's employment with Employer.
Employee will not, during or at any time within three years after the
termination of Employee's employment with Employer, induce or seek to induce,
any other employee of Employer to terminate his or her employment
relationship with Employer.
12. GOODWILL. Employee will not disparage Employer or any of its Affiliates
in any way which could adversely affect the goodwill, reputation and business
relationships of Employer or any of its Affiliates with the public generally,
or with any of their customers, suppliers or employees. Employer will not
disparage Employee.
13. TERMINATION.
A. (i) Employer or Employee may terminate this Agreement upon
Employee's failure or inability to perform the services required hereunder
because of any physical or mental infirmity for which Employee receives
disability benefits under any disability benefit plans made available to
Employee by Employer (the "Disability Plans"),
7
over a period of one hundred twenty consecutive working days during any
twelve consecutive month period (a "Terminating Disability").
(ii) If Employer or Employee elects to terminate this Agreement in
the event of a Terminating Disability, such termination shall be effective
immediately upon the giving of written notice by the terminating party to the
other.
(iii) Upon termination of this Agreement on account of Terminating
Disability, Employer shall pay Employee Employee's accrued compensation
hereunder, whether Base Salary, Bonus or otherwise (subject to offset for any
amounts received pursuant to the Disability Plans), to the date of
termination. For as long as such Terminating Disability may exist, Employee
shall continue to be an employee of Employer for all other purposes and
Employer shall provide Employee with disability benefits and all other
benefits according to the provisions of the Disability Plans and any other
Employer plans in which Employee is then participating.
(iv) If the parties elect not to terminate this Agreement upon an
event of a Terminating Disability and Employee returns to active employment
with Employer prior to such a termination, or if such disability exists for
less than one hundred twenty consecutive working days, the provisions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
B. This Agreement terminates immediately and automatically on the
death of the Employee, provided, however, that the Employee's estate shall be
paid Employee's accrued compensation hereunder, whether Base Salary, Bonus or
otherwise, to the date of death.
C. Employer may terminate this Agreement immediately, upon written
notice to Employee, for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, Employer shall
have "Cause" to terminate this Agreement only if Employer's Board of
Directors determines that there has been fraud, misappropriation or
embezzlement on the part of Employee.
D. Employer may terminate this Agreement immediately, upon written
notice to Employee, for any reason other than those set forth in Sections
13.A., B. and C.; provided, however, that Employer shall have no right to
terminate under this Section 13.D. within two years after a Change in
Control. In the event of a termination by Employer under this Section 13.D.,
Employer shall, within five days after the termination, pay Employee an
amount equal to the greater of (i) two times the sum of the annual Base
Salary rate in effect at the time of termination plus the Bonus target in
effect at the time of termination of (ii) if the Current Term is longer than
two years, the sum of the Base Salary for the remainder of the Current Term
(at the rate in effect at the time of termination) plus the Bonus targets (at
the amount in effect at the time of termination) for each calendar year
commencing or ending during the remainder of the Current Term (subject to
proration in the case of any calendar year ending after the Current Term).
For the remainder of the Current Term, Employer shall continue to provide
Employee with medical, dental, vision and life insurance coverage comparable
to the medical, dental, vision and life insurance coverage in effect for
Employee immediately prior to the termination; and, to the extent
that Employee would have been eligible for any post-retirement medical,
dental, vision or life insurance benefits from Employer if Employee
8
had continued in employment through the end of the Current Term, Employer
shall provide such post-retirement benefits to Employee after the end of the
Current Term. All stock options shall become immediately exercisable (and
Employee shall be afforded the opportunity to exercise them), the
restrictions applicable to all restricted stock shall lapse and any long term
awards shall be paid out at target. In addition, Employee shall be entitled
to receive, as soon as practicable after termination, an amount equal to the
sum of (i) any forfeitable benefits under any qualified or nonqualified
pension, profit sharing, 401(k) or deferred compensation plan of Employer or
any Affiliate which would have vested prior to the end of the Current Term if
Employee's employment had not terminated plus (ii) if Employee is
participating in a qualified or nonqualified defined benefit plan of Employer
or any Affiliate at the time of termination, an amount equal to the present
value of the additional vested benefits which would have accrued for Employee
under such plan if Employee's employment had not terminated prior to the end
of the Current Term and if Employee's annual Base Salary and Bonus target had
neither increased nor decreased after the termination. For purposes of this
Section 13.D., "Current Term" means the longer of (i) the two year period
beginning at the time of termination or (ii) the unexpired term of this
Agreement at the time of the termination, determined as provided in Section 2
but assuming that there is no automatic extension of the Agreement term after
the termination. For purposes of this Section 13.D. and Section 13.E.,
"Change in Control" means a change in control as defined in Employer's 1997
Long Term Incentive Plan.
E. This Agreement shall terminate automatically in the event that
there is a Change in Control and Employee's employment with Employer is
actually or constructively terminated by Employer within two years after the
Change in Control for any reason other than those set forth in Sections
13.A., B., and C. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a "constructive"
termination of Employee's employment shall be deemed to have occurred if,
without Employee's consent, there is a material reduction in Employee's
authority or responsibilities or if there is a reduction in Employee's Base
Salary or Bonus target from the amount in effect immediately prior to the
Change in Control or if Employee is required by Employer to relocate from the
city where Employee is residing immediately prior to the Change in Control.
In the event of a termination under this Section 13.E., Employer shall pay
Employee an amount equal to two times the sum of the annual Base Salary rate
in effect at the time of termination plus the Bonus target in effect at the
time of termination, all stock options shall become immediately exercisable
(and Employee shall be afforded the opportunity to exercise them), the
restrictions applicable to all restricted stock shall lapse and any long term
awards shall be paid out at target. For the remainder of the Current Term,
Employer shall continue to provide Employee with medical, dental, vision and
life insurance coverage comparable to the medical, dental, vision and life
insurance coverage in effect for Employee immediately prior to the
termination; and, to the extent that Employee would have been eligible for
any post-retirement medical, dental, vision or life insurance benefits from
Employer if Employee had continued in employment through the end of the
Current Term, Employer shall provide such post-retirement benefits to
Employee after the end of the Current Term. Employee's accrued benefit under
any nonqualified pension or deferred compensation plan maintained by Employer
or any Affiliate shall become immediately vested and nonforfeitable and
Employee also shall be entitled to receive a payment equal to the sum of (i)
any forfeitable benefits under any qualified pension or
9
profit sharing or 401(k) plan maintained by Employer or any Affiliate plus
(ii) if Employee is participating in a qualified or nonqualified defined
benefit plan of Employer or any Affiliate at the time of termination, an
amount equal to the present value, of the additional benefits which would
have accrued for Employee under such plan if Employee's employment had not
terminated prior to the end of the Current Term and if Employee's annual Base
Salary and Bonus target had neither increased nor decreased after the
termination. Finally, to the extent that Employee is deemed to have received
an excess parachute payment by reason of the Change in Control, Employer
shall pay Employee an additional sum sufficient to pay (i) any taxes imposed
under section 4999 of the Code plus (ii) any federal, state and local taxes
applicable to any taxes imposed under section 4999 of the Code. For purposes
of this Section 13.E., "Current Term" means the longer of (i) the two year
period beginning at the time of termination or (ii) the unexpired term of
this Agreement at the time of the termination, determined as provided in
Section 2 but assuming that there is no automatic extension of the Agreement
term after the termination.
F. Employee may resign upon 60 days' prior written notice to Employer.
In the event of a resignation under this Section 13.F., this Agreement shall
terminate and Employee shall be entitled to receive Employee's Base Salary
through the date of termination, any Bonus earned but not paid at the time
of termination and any other vested compensation or benefits called for under
any compensation plan or program of Employer.
G. Employee may retire (a) upon six months' prior written notice to
Employer at any time after Employee has attained age 55 and completed at
least ten years of service with Employer and its Affiliates or (b) on such
earlier date as may be approved by the President of Employer. In the event of
a retirement under this Section 13.G., this Agreement shall terminate and
Employee shall be entitled to receive Employee's Base Salary through the date
of termination and any Bonus earned but not paid at the time of termination.
In addition, Employee shall be entitled to receive any compensation or
benefits made available to retirees under Employer's standard policies and
programs, including retiree medical and life insurance benefits, a prorated
Bonus for the year of termination, and the right to exercise options after
retirement.
H. Upon termination of this Agreement as a result of an event of
termination described in this Section 13 and except for Employer's payment of
the required payments under this Section 13 (including any Base Salary
accrued through the date of termination, any Bonus earned for the year
preceding the year in which the termination occurs and any nonforfeitable
amounts payable under any employee plan), all further compensation under this
Agreement shall terminate.
I. The termination of this Agreement shall not amend, alter or modify
the rights and obligations of the parties under Sections 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and
12 hereof, the terms of which shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
10
14. ASSIGNMENT. As this is an agreement for personal services involving a
relation of confidence and a trust between Employer and Employee, all rights
and duties of Employee arising under this Agreement, and the Agreement
itself, are non-assignable by Employee.
15. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this
Agreement shall be sufficient, if in writing, and if delivered personally or
by certified mail to Employee at Employee's place of residence as then
recorded on the books of Employer or to Employer at its principal office.
16. WAIVER. No waiver or modification of this Agreement or the terms
contained herein shall be valid unless in writing and duly executed by the
party to be charged therewith. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of
any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by such party.
17. GOVERNING LAW. This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of Ohio.
18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to Employee's employment by Employer. There are no other
contracts, agreements or understandings, whether oral or written, existing
between them except as contained or referred to in this Agreement.
19. SEVERABILITY. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement
is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality, or other enforceability shall not affect any other
provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable provisions have never been contained herein.
20. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to the requirements of Paragraph 14
above, this Agreement shall be binding upon Employee, Employer and Employer's
successors and assigns.
21. CONFIDENTIALITY OF AGREEMENT TERMS. The terms of this Agreement shall be
held in strict confidence by Employee and shall not be disclosed by Employee
to anyone other than Employee's spouse, Employee's legal counsel, and
Employee's other advisors, unless required by law. Further, except as
provided in the preceding sentence, Employee shall not reveal the existence
of this Agreement or discuss its terms with any person (including but not
limited to any employee of Employer or its Affiliates) without the express
authorization of the President of Employer. To the extent that the terms of
this Agreement have been disclosed by Employer, in a public filing or
otherwise, the confidentiality requirements of this Section 21 shall no
longer apply to such terms.
