shall be entitled to six (6) months of pay, at EMPLOYEE'S current base
salary, plus $2,000.00 in lieu of fringe benefits, and payout of accrued
vacation. In order to receive such salary and fringe benefits payment,
EMPLOYEE must execute the then current company "Release of All Employment
Claims." Participation in all stock option plans, stock purchase plans, and
other company personnel benefits shall cease on the EMPLOYEE's date of
termination, subject to the specific provisions of option agreements or
plans that may extend EMPLOYEE's rights beyond date of termination. If
EMPLOYEE is removed from the Functional Management Team (FMT) into another
position within ESI, the EMPLOYEE shall only be entitled to receive a pro
rata severance payment. For example, if EMPLOYEE is removed from the
Functional Management Team into another position, and 3-months later is
terminated without cause from the new position, EMPLOYEE would be entitled
to receive a pro-rata amount of the 6-months termination pay and fringe
benefits payment (3-months base salary and $1,000.00 fringe benefits
payment). As another example, if EMPLOYEE is in the new position for
9-months and is then terminated, no termination payment would be due under
this agreement. In the event of a change of control of the company or if
the company is acquired by another company, person or entity, the six (6)
month base salary termination payment shall be increased to twelve (12)
months. EMPLOYEE is responsible for any tax consequences triggered by
severance payment or a change in control.
DATED this 19th day of December, 2001.
