3. COMPENSATION: The EMPLOYEE shall receive as compensation for his/her services
the amount of $13, 108 per month plus all employee benefits as set forth in the

11. NOTICE OF TERMINATION: With or without good cause either party may terminate
this agreement by giving fourteen (14) days written notice to the other party.
Termination of this Agreement shall not terminate the NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENT
between the parties.
12. SEVERANCE PAY: In the event EMPLOYEE is terminated without cause, EMPLOYEE
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 13th day of February, 2002.
