interests of the Company; provided that, in (b) above, Executive has received
written notice of the described activity and has failed to substantially correct
or cease the activity, as appropriate.

following have occurred, without the Executive's written consent: (i) a
reduction in Executive's then current Base Salary; (ii) the failure to elect or

Company; or, (iv) a Change in Control as defined in paragraph 4.06. In the event
Executive initiates a Constructive Termination of this Agreement, the Company

reason, Executive will be entitled to any Company Benefits under Company's
Benefit Plans and otherwise payable in accordance with the provisions of the
plan concerned for a period of time equal to the period of time during which
Executive shall receive any portion of the Base Salary payments.
4.6 Change of Control. A "Change of Control" shall mean the
occurrence of any one of the following events: (i) any "person," as such term is
used in Sections 3(a)(9) and 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"1934 Act"), as amended (other than the Executive or entities "controlled by"
Executive as such
-4-
term is used in the 1934 Act), becomes a "beneficial owner," as such term is
used in Rule 13(d)(3) of the 1934 Act, of twenty percent (20%) or more of the
voting power of the Company; (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company are disposed of pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other

In the event (i) a Change of Control results in the termination of Executive's
employment for any reason during the first one-hundred and eighty (180) days
after such Change of Control, or (ii) following a "Change of Control", the
Company or any successor to the Company fails to assume, in writing, all of the
obligations of the Company to perform this Agreement, the Company shall pay the
Executive 2.99 times Executive's Base Salary in effect at the time of such
Change of Control. The Executive shall forfeit any rights pursuant to this

Executive accepts a written offer to remain with the surviving company in an
executive position with equivalent duties, authority and responsibility as
Executive holds under this Agreement.
4.7 Payment Following a Change of Control, or Constructive
Termination Without Cause. In the event that the termination of the Executive's
employment is as a result of a Change of Control or Constructive Termination,
and the aggregate of all payments or benefits made or provided to the Executive
under this Agreement constitute a Parachute Payment, as such term is defined in
Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), the Company shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time any excise
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code ("Excise Tax") is payable with respect
to such Parachute Payment, an additional amount which, after the imposition of
the Excise Tax and income taxes thereon, is equal to 100% of the Excise Tax on
the Parachute Payment. The determination of whether the above payments represent
a Parachute Payment and, if so, the determination of the amount paid to
Executive pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made by an independent auditor
jointly selected by the Executive and the Company, and shall be paid by the
Company. If Executive and Company are unable to agree on an independent auditor,
then the Executive and Company shall each independently select independent
auditors, and the two independent auditors shall select an independent auditor.

Executive's employment under this Agreement, the Executive shall be under no
obligation to seek other employment and there shall be no offset against amounts
