4.3 CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS BY THE COMPANY.

or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive
outside of this Agreement ("Payment") may result in an excise tax under
Code Section 4999. Such excise tax together with any interest or
penalties on such excise tax are referred to in this Agreement as the
"Excise Tax."
(b) If the Payments do or could result in an Excise Tax
(as determined in Section 4.3(c) below), the Company shall pay the

any additional income and employment taxes resulting from the Company's

(c) The Company shall determine whether an Additional
Payment is required. The Company shall provide detailed supporting
information demonstrating whether an Excise Tax will be incurred and
the amount of the Additional Payment to the Executive. The Company
shall provide such information to
the Executive within fifteen business days after payment of the
Severance Payment. The Company's determination is binding on the
Executive; provided, however, that the Company shall be obligated to
pay all amounts set forth in Section 4.3(d) below in the event the
Internal Revenue Service imposes an Excise Tax on Executive.
(d) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of
any claim by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") that, if successful,
would require the Company to make an Additional Payment to the
Executive ("Claim"). The Executive must provide such written notice to
the Company as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days
after the IRS sends written notice of the Claim to the Executive. The
Executive's written notice shall apprise the Company of the Claim and
the date on which IRS has demanded payment. The Executive shall not pay
such Claim until 30 days after the Executive provides written notice to
the Company. If the Company notifies the Executive in writing during
such 30 day period that it desires to dispute such claim ("Dispute"),
the Executive shall on a timely basis:
(i) give the Company any information it
reasonably requests relating to the Claim,
(ii) take such action in connection with
contesting the Claim as the Company shall reasonably request
in writing from time to time, including, without limitation,
accepting legal representation with respect to the Claim by an
attorney the Company reasonably selects,
(iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in
order effectively to contest the Claim, and
(iv) permit the Company to participate in any
proceedings relating to the Claim;
(e) The Company shall pay all costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the Dispute and shall indemnify and hold the
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income
tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as
a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.
(f) The Company shall control all proceedings taken in
connection with the Dispute. At the Company's sole option, it may
pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings,
hearings and conferences in respect of the Dispute. At the Company's
sole option, it may either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed
and xxx for a refund or contest the Claim in any permissible manner.
The Executive agrees to prosecute the Dispute to a determination before
any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in
one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine.
(g) If the Company directs the Executive to pay the Claim
and xxx for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such
payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis. Furthermore, the
Company shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an
after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest
or penalties with respect to such Excise Tax) imposed with respect to
such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such
advance. The Company's control of the Dispute shall be limited to
issues with respect to the Additional Amount and the Executive shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue
raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.
(h) If, after the advance described in Section 4.3(g)
above, the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with
respect to the Dispute, the Executive shall promptly pay to the Company
the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited
thereon after taxes applicable thereto).
(i) If, after the advance described in Section 4.3(g)
above, the IRS determines that the Executive is not be entitled to a
refund with respect to the Claim, the Company may take either of the
following steps. First, the Company may notify the Executive in writing
of its intent to dispute the IRS determination. In this event, this
Section 4.3 shall continue in effect with respect to the Dispute.
Second, the Company may decide to discontinue the Dispute. If so, then
the Company's advance shall be offset against the Additional Payment.
The Executive must notify the Company in writing of any IRS
determination within 10 days of the Executive's receipt of such
determination. The Company then has 30 days to notify the Executive in
writing of its decision to continue or discontinue the Dispute.
4.4 WAIVER OF STANDARD SEVERANCE. In the event the Executive is entitled to
the Severance Payment, the Executive hereby knowingly and voluntarily releases
and waives any claim or right the Executive ever had, now has, or may have or
claims to have against the Company to receive severance benefits pursuant to the
terms of the Company's standard severance program, as the same may be amended
from time to time. In the event the Executive is not entitled to the Severance
Payment, the release and waiver set forth in the foregoing sentence shall be
null and void and the Executive shall be entitled to receive severance benefits
pursuant to the terms of the Company's standard severance program, as the same
may be amended from time to time.
ARTICLE 5
DISABILITY BENEFITS
5.1 ELIGIBILITY FOR DISABILITY BENEFITS. An Executive shall be eligible for
the disability benefit described in Section 5.2 below ("Disability Benefit") if
the following conditions are satisfied:

while this Agreement is in effect; and
(b) The Executive is "actively at work" (as defined
below) at the time the Executive becomes Disabled; and
(c) At the time the Executive became Disabled, the
Executive was an active participant in the LTD Plan and had timely
remitted all premiums for such coverage as set forth in the LTD Plan.
5.2 DISABILITY BENEFIT.
(a) The Company shall pay the Disability Benefit monthly.
The monthly Disability Benefit shall equal Eighty Percent (80%) of the
Executive's "monthly base salary" (as defined below) reduced by any
"offset payments" (as defined below).
(b) The Executive's monthly base salary is determined by
ignoring overtime pay, bonuses, commissions, fringe benefits and any
other extra compensation. However, monthly base salary shall include
any compensation the Executive defers under the Company's 401(k) plan
or under the Company's Section 125 plan. The Executive's monthly base
salary shall be the greater of 1/12th of the Executive's annual base
salary for the calendar year immediately preceding the Executive's
Disability or the Executive's monthly base salary for the month
immediately preceding the Executive's Disability.
(c) The offset payments are: Social Security disability
benefits, unemployment compensation, worker's compensation benefits,
and any other amounts which would reduce the Executive's Disability
Benefit had the Executive been entitled to payments under the LTD Plan.
Benefits may be offset regardless of whether the Executive makes an
application for benefits if the Company reasonably determines that the
Executive would have received benefits if the Executive had made a
timely application for benefits. If an Executive receives an offset
payment in the form of a lump sum benefit, such lump sum payment will
be divided by 60 and the result will be used to reduce the monthly
Disability Benefit in each month for which benefits are payable.
(d) "Actively at Work" means the Executive was actively
employed for the minimum number of hours the Company establishes as the
normal week for the Executive at the Company's principal place of
business or at other Company approved locations.
(e) All Disability Benefits shall cease at the earliest
of the following dates:
(i) Age 65. However, if Disability Benefits must
continue beyond age 65 to satisfy federal or state age
discrimination statutes, such payments will continue to the
extent necessary to satisfy
such federal or state statute. A table of post-65 disability
benefits provided by the Company sponsored LTD Plan shall be
used for determining the amount of post-65 payments required
under this Agreement.
(ii) Disability Benefits shall cease when the
Executive is no longer Disabled under the definition in
Section 3.7.
(iii) Disability Benefits shall cease if the
Company becomes insolvent and unable to pay its debts in the
ordinary course of its business.
(iv) The Executive is no longer under the care of
a "physician." Physician means any legally qualified
physician. However, if Disability is due to a mental,
psychoneurotic, or personality disorder, the physician must
also be qualified to evaluate and treat mental illness through
specialization in or training and experience in psychiatric
medicine.
(v) The Executive begins work at any occupation
or employment for wage, profit or gain.
(vi) The Executive fails to furnish proof, as
requested by the Company that the Executive is Disabled.
(vii) The Executive refuses to be examined, if the
Company requires an examination. The Company may require an
examination as frequently as would be permitted under the
terms of the Company sponsored LTD Plan.
(viii) The Executive's death.
5.3 ELIMINATION PERIOD. The Executive must be continually Disabled for 90
consecutive days before the Company becomes obligated to pay Disability
Benefits. The Company shall not pay Disability Benefits for the Executive's
Disability during the Elimination Period.
5.4 EVIDENCE REQUIREMENT. The Company may require the Executive to provide
evidence of the Executive's Disability as frequently as would be permitted under
the Company sponsored LTD Plan.
5.5 PRO RATA BENEFITS. If a monthly Disability Benefit is for less than a
month, the Company will pay 1/30 of the monthly Disability Benefit for each day
the Executive is Disabled.

assault, battery or any felony;
