2.                                      Term and Termination.  The term (the “Term”) of the Executive Chairman’s services hereunder will begin on February 7, 2015 and will end upon the appointment of a Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  In addition, either party may terminate this Agreement upon 5 business days’ written notice to the other party.  Upon termination of this Agreement, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Executive Chairman will remain a Director on the Board and Executive Chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board.

4.                                      Confidentiality.  The Executive Chairman agrees that during and at all times after the Term, the Executive Chairman will keep secret all confidential matters and materials of the Company (including its subsidiaries and affiliates), including, without limitation, know-how, trade secrets, real estate plans and practices, individual office results, customer lists, pricing policies, operational methods, any information relating to the Company (including any of its subsidiaries and affiliates) products, processes, customers and services and other business and financial affairs of the Company (collectively, the “Confidential Information”), to which the Executive Chairman had or may have access and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any person, other than (i) the Company, its respective authorized employees and such other persons to whom the Executive Chairman has been instructed to make disclosure by the Board, (ii) as appropriate (as determined by the Executive Chairman in good faith) to perform his duties hereunder, or (iii) in compliance with legal process or regulatory requirements.  “Confidential Information” will not include any information which is in the public domain during or after the

The Executive Chairman shall be covered by the Company’s directors and officers insurance policy upon terms and conditions no less favorable than the terms provided by the Company to any member of the Board or other senior executive of the Company.
