the Plan, there are no outstanding or authorized rights, options,
warrants, convertible securities, subscription rights, conversion

Option will provide that Executive has ten (10) years from the
Commencement Date to exercise the vested portions of the Stock Option;
provided, however that Executive shall have five years to exercise any
vested portion of the Stock Option following the expiration or

extent that he is eligible under the terms and conditions thereof, in any
pension, retirement, hospitalization, health insurance, disability or medical
service plan generally available to the United States executive officers or
employees of the Company that may be in effect from time to time during the
Employment Period. The Company represents to Executive that its health insurance
plan generally permits the coverage of Executive's spouse and minor children,

the Company's Board of Directors in the exercise of reasonable discretion.
(c) Cause. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's
employment for Cause (as defined). For purposes of this Agreement, the Company
shall have "Cause" to terminate Executive's employment upon:
(i) the failure, neglect or refusal by Executive to
substantially perform any material duty under this Agreement (other
than Sections 10, 11 or 13, which shall be covered by clause (v) below)
or to follow any reasonable directive of the Board of Directors that

gives written notice to Executive;
(ii) Executive's conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo
contendere to, any crime constituting a felony;
(iii) Executive's commission of an act of dishonesty, fraud,
misrepresentation or other act of moral turpitude, which in the
reasonable good faith judgment of the Board of Directors constitutes
grounds for termination;
(iv) Executive's willful misconduct provided that the Board of
Directors reasonably determines that such misconduct is injurious to
the business or reputation of the Company or its subsidiaries;
provided, however, that no act, or failure to act, by Executive shall
be considered "willful" unless committed in bad faith and without a
reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the best interests of
the Company; or
(v) a breach by Executive of Sections 10, 11 or 13 of this
Agreement.
(d) Without Cause. Subject to its compliance with the terms of Section

to terminate Executive without Cause and such termination shall not in and of
itself be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement.

Reason" within thirty (30) days after Executive has actual knowledge of the
occurrence, without the written consent of Executive, if one of the following
events that has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof has been given by Executive to the Company:

(iv) the Company's failure to substantially provide any

constituting Good Reason hereunder.
(f) Without Good Reason. Executive shall have the right to terminate
his employment hereunder without Good Reason (which shall be defined as any

9. Compensation Upon Termination. If Executive's employment terminates
during the Employment Period, the Company shall provide Executive with the
payments and benefits set forth below.
(a) Termination By the Company Without Cause or By Executive for Good
Reason. If Executive's employment is terminated hereunder by the Company other
than for Cause, Disability or Death (including, without limitation, if an
arbitrator determines that Executive's employment was terminated hereunder by
the Company other than for Cause or Disability), or by Executive for Good
Reason:
(i) the Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum a
severance payment equal to the amount of Base Salary payable to
Executive for a twelve (12) month period;
(ii) the Company shall reimburse Executive pursuant to Section
5(c) for reasonable expenses incurred, but not paid prior to such
termination of employment;
(iii) Executive shall be entitled to any other rights,
compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive in accordance
with the terms and provisions of any agreements, plans or programs of
the Company through and including the Date of Termination; and
(iv) the Stock Option shall become fully vested as of the Date
of Termination.
If the Company concurrently executes a general release (in a form
reasonably acceptable to the Executive) of all known and unknown claims that the
Company and persons affiliated with the Company may then have against the
Executive and the Company agrees not to prosecute any legal action or other
proceeding based upon any of such claims, payment of the severance payment
provided for in (a)(i) above will be conditional upon Executive's execution of a
general release (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company) of all known
and unknown claims under this Agreement (other than as a stockholder or option
holder) that Executive may then have against the Company or persons affiliated
with the Company and the Executive having agreed not to prosecute any legal
action or other proceeding based upon any of such claims. The foregoing
notwithstanding, upon the written election of Executive, in his sole discretion,
the total of the benefits payable under this Section 9(a) shall be reduced to
the maximum after tax payment (as determined by Executive and agreed to by the
Board) to the extent the payment of such amounts would cause Executive's total
termination benefits (as determined by Executive's tax advisor) to constitute an
"excess" parachute payment under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), and by reason of such excess parachute payment
Executive would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999(a) of the Code.
If Executive fails to make the election described in this paragraph, no
reduction in the termination benefits payable to Executive shall be made.
(b) Termination for Cause, Disability, Death or By Executive Without
Good Reason. If Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by the Company
prior to the expiration of the Employment Period for Cause, Disability or by
Executive (other than for Good Reason) or due to Executive's death:
(i) the Company shall pay Executive (or his estate) his Base
Salary through the Date of Termination, as soon as practicable
following the Date of Termination;
(ii) the Company shall reimburse Executive pursuant to Section
5(c) for reasonable expenses incurred, but not paid prior to such
termination of employment, unless such termination resulted from a
misappropriation of Company funds;
(iii) Executive shall be entitled to any other rights,
compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive in accordance
with the terms and provisions of any agreements, plans or programs of
the Company through and including the Date of Termination; and
(iv) the unvested portion of the Stock Option shall
immediately cease to vest and be automatically terminated.
10. Confidentiality. Executive shall regard and retain as confidential,
and will not divulge to any third party or use for any purpose other than for
the benefit of the Company in connection with the fulfillment of the Executive's
duties under this Agreement or with the prior written consent of the Board, any
information concerning the Company, including without limitation, trade secrets,
strategies, studies, know-how, techniques, marketing plans and opportunities,
cost and pricing data, forecasts, customer lists, developments, improvements,
discoveries, patents, patent applications, technologies, processes, research,

while providing the services to the Company, or related to the services provided
under this Agreement ("Confidential Information"), or any information identified
by the Company or any of its affiliates as Confidential Information. Nothing in
this Agreement is intended to grant any rights to Executive under any patent,
mask work, or copyright of the Company, nor shall this Agreement grant Executive
any right in or to Confidential Information except as expressly set forth
herein. Like all Company employees, Executive will be required, as a condition
to his employment with the Company, to sign and comply with the Company's
standard Proprietary Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement (in the
form executed by the Executive concurrently with this Agreement).
11. Non-Solicitation/Non-Interference and Non-Competition.
(a) During the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months
thereafter, neither Executive nor any of his affiliates shall, whether for his
own account or for the account of any other person (a) endeavor to entice away
from the Company or any of its affiliates, or otherwise interfere with the
relationship of the Company or any of its affiliates with (i) any person,
entity, lessor, licensor, manufacturer, supplier or other business organization
which is or becomes employed by or otherwise engaged to perform services for the
Company or any of its affiliates, or (ii) any person or entity that is or
becomes a customer, client or licensee of the Company or any of its affiliates
on the date hereof or at any time during the Employment Period, or (b) interfere
with or solicit with a view toward enticing from the Company any person who is
or becomes an employee or consultant on the date hereof or at any time during
the Employment Period.
(b) During the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months
thereafter, neither Executive nor any entity of which the Executive is the
Beneficial Owner of 25% or more of such entity's total voting stock shall,
whether for compensation or without compensation, directly or indirectly, as an
owner, individual proprietor, principal, partner, employee, stockholder,
director, officer, independent contractor, consultant, joint venturer, investor,
licensor, lender or in any other capacity whatsoever, alone, or in association
with any other person, carry on, be engaged or take part in, or render services
or advice to, own, share in the earnings of, invest in the stocks, bonds or
other securities of any person (other than the Company) engaged in the
Restricted Activities in the Restricted Areas. "Restricted Activities" shall
mean brand protection through RF tagging and the tracking and tracing of
chemical solutions. "Restricted Areas" shall mean the United States, Europe and
Israel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have
breached his obligations under this Section 11(b): (i) through the record or
beneficial ownership by Executive or his affiliates of any investment in any
corporation having securities that are publicly traded on a national securities
exchange or in the over-the-counter market or any entity that derives less than
10% of its revenues from the Restricted Activities in the Restricted Areas or
(ii) by serving as a director, employee, independent contractor, consultant,
licensor, lender or other capacity to any entity that derives less that 10% of
its revenues from the Restricted Activities in the Restricted Areas provided
that Executive's capacity with such entity is not directly related to such
Restricted Activities.
12. Remedies. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set
forth in Sections 10 and 11 of this Agreement (collectively, the "Restrictive
Covenants") are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the proprietary
interests and other legitimate business interests of the Company and its
affiliates, that irreparable injury will result to the Company and its
affiliates if Executive breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants, and that in
the event of Executive's actual or threatened breach of any such Restrictive
Covenants, the Company and its affiliates will not have an adequate remedy at
law. Executive accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened
breach by Executive of any of the Restrictive Covenants, notwithstanding the
obligation to seek arbitration under this Agreement pursuant to Section 15, the
Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific
performance and other equitable relief, without bond and without the necessity
of showing actual monetary damages, subject to hearing as soon thereafter as
possible. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company
and its affiliates from pursuing any other remedies available to them for such
breach or threatened breach, including but not limited to the recovery of
damages. Any provision of Section 11 that is prohibited or declared
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, without invalidating
the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of
such provision in any other jurisdiction. If any court determines that any of
the noncompetition covenants, or any part thereof, contained in Section 11 are
unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the product area
covered thereby, such court shall have the power, and the parties intend and
desire that such court exercise such power, to reduce the duration or coverage
of such provision to the minimum extent necessary to render such provision
enforceable, and in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable
and shall be enforced.
13. No Conflicting Obligations. Executive represents that the services
to be provided by him to the Company will not require him to violate or breach
any obligation to or agreement or confidence with any previous employer or any
other third party.Executive will not disclose to the Company any confidential
information or material belonging to a third party, including that belonging to
any prior or present employer or contractor, unless Executive has first received
the written approval of that third party and presents such approval to the
Company.
14. Indemnification. If Executive requests that the Company obtain a
reasonable director's and officer's liability insurance policy from a reputable
insurer with at least $5.0 million of coverage, or that the Company enter into
reasonable directors and officers indemnification agreement with Executive, the
Board of Directors will use its good faith efforts to do so.
15. Arbitration. Subject to Section 12, any controversy between
Executive and the Company involving the construction or application of any of
the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the determination of whether a "Disability" or "Cause" existed under
Section 6(b) or 6(c) of this Agreement at the time of any termination, shall, on
the written request of either party served on the other in accordance with
Section 17 below, be submitted to binding arbitration. EACH PARTY, BY SIGNING
THIS AGREEMENT, VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY AND INTELLIGENTLY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS SUCH
PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO SEEK REMEDIES IN COURT OR OTHER FORUMS, INCLUDING
THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall comply with and be governed in
accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration
Association (the "AAA"). The arbitration will be conducted only in New York, New
York, before a single arbitrator selected by the parties or, if they are unable
to agree on an arbitrator, before an arbitrator selected by the AAA. The
arbitrator shall have full authority to order specific performance and award
damages and other relief available under this Agreement or applicable law, but
shall have no authority to add to, detract from, change or amend the terms of
this Agreement or existing law. All arbitration proceedings, including
settlements and awards, shall be confidential. The decision of the arbitrator
will be final and binding, and judgment on the award by the arbitrator may be
entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. THIS SUBMISSION AND AGREEMENT TO
ARBITRATE WILL BE SPECIFICALLY ENFORCEABLE. The arbitrator will have no power to
ignore or vary the terms of this Agreement and any other agreement between
Executive and the Company and will be bound to apply controlling law. The
arbitrator shall award to the party which it views as prevailing in any such
arbitration the costs of arbitration, including reasonable attorney's fees and
costs, from the losing party.
16. Successors; Binding Agreement. No rights or obligations of the
Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except that, without
limiting Executive's rights under this Agreement upon a Change of Control, the
Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this
Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as herein before defined and any
successor to its business and/or assets (by merger, purchase or otherwise) which

Executive), and such waiver is set forth in writing and signed by the party to

other party hereto of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be
performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar
provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

respective rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall
survive Executive's termination of employment and the termination of this
