2, all upon the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. As a condition
to Executive's employment by the Company, Executive affirms and represents that
Executive is under no obligation to any former employer or other person which is
in any way inconsistent with, or which imposes any restriction upon, Executive's
acceptance of employment with the Company, the employment of Executive by the
Company, or Executive's undertaking under this Agreement.
2. Term of Employment. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 17, the
initial term of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall be for a
five-year period commencing on the effective date hereof and continuing to
September 30, 2009 (the "Initial Term"). From and after September 30, 2009, on
each anniversary of the date of end of the Initial Term, the term of employment
(the "Employment Term") shall automatically extend for a successive one-year
term unless the Company elects not to extend the Employment Term by sending at
least 90 days' prior written notice (a "Notice of Nonextension") thereof to
Executive. A termination pursuant to a Notice of Nonextension shall not be
considered a termination for "Cause."
3. Duties.
(a) General. During the Employment Term, Executive shall render general
insurance agency and/or brokerage, administrative and managerial services to the
Company, shall be based at Company's office in Emeryville, California and shall
perform such other reasonable employment duties as the Company's Board of
Directors (the "Company Board") or such executive as designated by the Company
Board may, from time to time, prescribe. During the Employment Term, Executive
shall also serve, if elected, as an officer or director of the Company.
Executive shall devote substantially all of his business time, attention, skill
and energy to the business of the Company, shall use his best efforts to promote
the success of the Company's business, and shall cooperate fully with the
Company Board in the advancement of the best interests of the Company. Except as
may otherwise be approved in advance by the Company Board with respect to
memberships on the boards of directors of, and other offices or positions in,
companies or organizations which, in their judgment, will not present any
conflict of interest with Xxxxxx and the Company or any of their affiliates or
materially affect the performance of Executive's duties and except during
vacation periods and reasonable periods of absence due to sickness, personal
injury or other disability, Executive shall devote his full time throughout the
Employment Term to the services required of Executive; provided, that Executive
may continue to serve on the board of directors or managing body of AssureSite
Technologies, LLC and/or Ironsides, Inc. so long as these entities (i) continue
in their respective lines of current business, (ii) do not compete with the
Company or any of its affiliates and (iii) do not require a substantially
greater amount of Executive's time and attention than such entities currently
require. Executive shall render his services exclusively to Xxxxxx and the
Company and their affiliates during the Employment Term in a manner consistent
with the duties of Executive's position.
(b) Additional Assurances. During the entire Initial Term, the parties
expressly agree that Executive shall have duties and responsibilities which are
consistent with those of an executive employee of the Company. Thereafter, the
parties expressly agree that Executive's job title and job duties may be changed
by the Company Board, but Executive shall still be considered a high ranking
executive of the Company and Executive shall still have duties and
responsibilities which are consistent with that of a high ranking executive
employee and Executive's other rights under this Agreement (e.g., compensation,
benefits and expenses, severance payments, etc.) shall remain in full force and
effect.
4. Salary. As compensation for the services to be performed by Executive
during the Employment Term, the Company shall pay to Executive the compensation
as set forth on Exhibit A (the "Compensation"). The Compensation, including any
upward or downward adjustments or increments thereto and the production-based
commission compensation, shall hereinafter be collectively referred to as the
"Salary." The payment of any Salary hereunder shall be subject to applicable
2
withholding and payroll taxes, and such other deductions as may be required
under the Company's employee benefit plans. Any Salary payable shall be paid in
installments in accordance with the Company's salary administration practices as
they may from time to time exist and subject to withholdings and payroll
deductions.
5. Benefits. In addition to the Salary required by Section 4 to be paid to
Executive during the Employment Term, Executive shall:
(a) be eligible to participate in all employee fringe benefits, stock
option, bonus and incentive compensation programs or plans and any pension
and/or profit sharing plans that may be provided by the Company for its key
executive employees in accordance with the provisions of any such programs or
plans;
(b) participate in any life or other similar insurance plans, medical and
health plans or other employee welfare benefit plans that may be provided by the
Company for its key executive employees in accordance with the provisions of any
such plans;
(c) be entitled to annual paid vacation in accordance with the Company's
policy (taking into account all of his years of service with the Company, to the
extent that the years of service are relevant in connection with such policy)
that may be applicable to key executive employees; and
(d) be entitled to sick leave and sick pay in accordance with any Company
policy that may be applicable to key executive employees.
With reference to the above benefits, Xxxxxx and the Company expressly
reserves the right to alter, modify, amend or terminate any such programs or
plans at any time and for any reason during the Employment Term; provided,
however, the Company shall provide Executive with at least the same level of
benefits as those provided to other key executive employees of the Company.
6. Expenses; Indemnification. The Company shall, upon submission of expense
reports acceptable to the Company, reimburse Executive in accordance with
existing Company policy for all reasonable and necessary business expenses
incurred by him in connection with the performance of Executive's duties
pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall defend,
indemnify and hold Executive harmless from all costs, expenses, legal fees,
damages and any other liability incurred by Executive as a result of performing
services in the scope of his employment with or as an officer, director or agent
for the benefit of the Company, pursuant to applicable California statutes and
the Company's articles of incorporation and/or bylaws but in any event excluding
fraud and willful misconduct. The Company shall pay the expenses (including the
attorneys' fees and disbursements) of the Employee incurred in good faith in
connection with this Section 6 upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the Employee to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court that
the Employee is not entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6. The
financial ability the Employee to repay an advance shall not be a prerequisite
to the making of the advance.
7. Automobile Allowance. Executive shall, in any case, receive from the
Company an automobile allowance of One Thousand ($1,000) Dollars per month. The
automobile allowance shall be adjusted on each anniversary of the commencement
3
of this Agreement to prospectively reflect increases in the annual Consumer
Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) using the latest available published
index figure on the date of this Agreement as the base index figure.
8. Death of Executive. In the event Executive's employment is terminated
pursuant to Section 17(a), Executive's spouse or, if Executive is not married at
the time of his death, the estate of Executive shall be entitled to receive
Executive's Salary, commissions and benefits earned in accordance with the
Company's standard compensation policies through the date of death, in addition
to all other applicable reimbursable expenses and vested insurance benefits.

benefits earned in accordance with the Company's standard compensation policies
through the date of termination, in addition to all other applicable
reimbursable expenses and vested insurance benefits.

Nonextension, Executive shall be entitled to receive Executive's Salary,
commissions and benefits earned in accordance with the Company's standard
compensation policies through the date of termination, in addition to all other
applicable reimbursable expenses and vested insurance benefits. In addition, the
Company shall pay to Executive the greater of (i) Executive's Salary for the
eighteen (18) months immediately following such termination and (ii) Executive's
Salary for the number of months remaining in the Initial Term, determined by
taking the arithmetic average of Executive's monthly Salary for the prior twenty
four (24) months. These payments will be paid in accordance with the Company's
normal payroll process or in one lump sum, at the option of the Company, within
30 days following the termination of Executive's employment.
11. Special Bonus. If Executive remains in the employ of the Company
through September 30, 2009, the Company shall pay Executive a Special Bonus (as
defined below) in cash, less applicable federal, state and local withholding
taxes, on October 30, 2010. As used in this Agreement, "Special Bonus" shall
mean $400,000; provided, that if Executive's commission and fee revenue for the
twelve (12) months ending September 30, 2010 (including commission and fee
revenue from new business written or placed by or through Executive ("New
Business")) is less than 90% of Executive's commission and fee revenue for the
twelve (12) months ending September 30, 2009 there shall be a proportionate
reduction in the Special Bonus using 90 as the denominator (e.g. if 60% of
Executive's commission and fee revenue as determined September 30, 2009 is
booked by the Company as of September 30, 2010, then 60/90 or two-thirds of the
$400,000 Special Bonus ($266,667) shall be paid to Executive).
The Special Bonus shall vest 100% in Executive (or his personal
representative) on the date that Executive's employment with the Company
terminates prior to September 30, 2009 as a result of death, disability or
termination by the Company without Cause and be payable by the Company within
thirty (30) days following death, disability or termination by the Company
4
without Cause; provided, that such payment is subject to acceleration pursuant
to Section 20.
12. Employment Relationship. Executive acknowledges that:
(a) Executive's employment by the Company creates a relationship of
confidence and trust between Executive and the Company with respect to certain
information applicable to the clients and customers of the Company or its
affiliates which may be made known to Executive during the period of his
employment.

strategic plans, lists of customers or clients, financial information,
forecasts, customer records and any other information which derive independent
economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known by other

(d) In the event that Executive, either prior to the date here of or as
part of his future activities on behalf of the Company generates, authors or
contributes to any invention, design, new development, device, product, method
or process (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice or comprising

Intellectual Property (including, without limitation, providing reasonable
assistance in securing patent protection and copyright registrations and
executing all documents as reasonably requested by the Company, whether such
requests occur prior to or after termination of Executive's employment with the
Company).

Xxxxxx'x subsidiaries, the Company, the customers and suppliers of the Company

be treated, for purposes of this Agreement, as a termination by the Company
without Cause; or

termination of Executive's employment by the Company other than for Cause, such
termination to take effect upon 90 days' prior written notice by the Company to
Executive.

receive payments under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation,

responsibilities are substantially reduced as compared with such duties and
responsibilities immediately prior to such Change in Control; (ii) Executive's
Salary is materially reduced as compared to his Salary immediately prior to such
Change in Control of Xxxxxx; or (iii) the Company fails to obtain the assumption
of its obligations to perform this Agreement by any financially comparable
successor; provided, that Executive is not terminated for Cause. For purposes of

of this Agreement shall in any way be affected.

covenants or conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such

relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times.
25. Entire Agreement; Modifications: and Conditions. This Agreement

Agreement may be modified or amended only by an instrument in writing signed by
all of Xxxxxx, the Company and Executive.

counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
27. Headings. The various headings of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement or any of its provisions.
28. Remedies. The parties acknowledge that a remedy at law for any breach
or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and
therefore agree that the other party shall be entitled to injunctive relief,
both preliminary and permanent, in addition to any other available rights and
remedies in case of any such breach or threatened breach; provided, however,
that nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting either party
from pursuing any other remedies available for any such breach or threatened
breach. The parties further acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach
by the other party of any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party
shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies to which the prevailing
party may be entitled under this Agreement, to recover from the breaching party
all reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred by the prevailing party in
enforcing this Agreement.
