5. Term; Early Termination. The Employment Period shall commence on or about July 1, 2004 and expire on July 1, 2006 (the “Contract Expiration Date”). The Employment Period may terminate prior to the Contract Expiration Date by reason of any of the following:

For purposes of this Agreement, termination “for cause” shall mean that the Company terminates Executive’s employment for any of the following reasons: (i) Executive’s continued failure, either due to willful action or as a result of gross neglect, to substantially perform his duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from his incapacity due to physical or mental illness) that, if capable of being cured, has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered to Executive by the Company, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the manner in which the Company believes that Executive has not substantially

1

performed his duties, (ii) the engaging by Executive in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company or its affiliates, monetarily or otherwise, unless the conduct in question was undertaken in good faith on an informed basis with due care and with a rational business purpose and based upon the honest belief that such conduct was in the best interest of the Company or its affiliates, as the case may be, (iii) Executive’s indictment or conviction (or plea of guilty or nolo contedere) for any felony or any other crime involving dishonesty, fraud or moral turpitude, (iv) Executive’s breach of fiduciary duty to the Company or its affiliates which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or its affiliates, (v) violation of the Company’s policies relating to compliance with applicable laws which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or its affiliates, (vi) violation of the Company’s policies on discrimination, unlawful harassment or substance abuse, (vii) violation of the Company’s Workplace Violence Policy, or (viii) unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, or related materials, or the violation of any of the terms of the Company’s standard confidentiality policies and procedures, in the case of any item identified in this clause (viii) which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or its affiliates and that, if capable of being cured, has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered to Executive by the Company, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the alleged unauthorized use or disclosure or violation. For purposes of clause (i) of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on Executive’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company or its affiliates, as the case may be.

     (b) By Executive for Good Reason. The Executive may terminate the Employment Period for good reason, as follows (“Good Reason”):

            (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Executive’s position, authority, duties or responsibilities as general counsel with ultimate authority and responsibility for hiring, evaluating, promoting and/or dismissing attorneys of the Legal Department of the Company, or which results in a significant diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities; or

            (ii) a material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement, provided, however, that no alleged action, diminution or breach set forth in preceding clause (i) or in this clause (ii), respectively, shall be deemed to constitute “Good Reason” unless such action, diminution or breach remains uncured, as the case may be, after the expiration of thirty (30) days following delivery to Company from the Executive of a written notice, setting forth such course of conduct deemed by Executive to constitute “Good Reason”; or

            (iii) any other action by the Company which, in the reasonable judgment of the Executive, would cause him to violate his ethical or professional obligations (after written notice of such judgment has been provided by the Executive to the Board’s audit committee and the Company has been given a thirty (30) day period within which to cure such action); or

            (iv) upon a Change of Control; or

            (v) the relocation of the Company’s corporate headquarters to a site outside of a ninety (90) mile radius of Manhattan; or

     (c) By Company at will. The Company may terminate the Employment Period other than for Cause pursuant to Section 5(a) at any time, upon notice to the Executive.

     (d) By Executive at will. The Executive may terminate the Employment Period other than for Good Reason pursuant to Section 5(b) at any time, upon notice to the Company.

     (e) Death or Disability of Executive. The Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon the death of Executive, or in the event of Executive’s Disability, as hereafter defined. Disability shall mean Executive’s inability to perform his responsibilities under this Agreement due to physical/mental disease and/or injury, for (i) a period

2

of six consecutive months or (ii) shorter periods aggregating six months during any twelve month period, if at the end of such disability period, there is no reasonable probability of Executive promptly resuming services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. If the Company wishes to seek to terminate this Agreement because of any alleged Disability, the Company shall give Executive at least thirty (30) days written notice of its intention to seek to terminate the Agreement by reason of Disability. Upon the giving of such notice of intention, Executive may cure any previous disability period by promptly resuming his services pursuant to this Agreement within seven (7) days. In the event Executive cannot or does not so resume his services following such notice, then the Company may terminate the Employment Period for Disability.

If the Employment Period is terminated for any reason other than pursuant to Section 5(a) (By Company for Cause), Section 5(d) (By Executive at will) or Section 5(e) (Death or Disability of Executive) then (in addition to payment of “Accrued Benefits” as defined and set forth in Section 7 hereof):

     (i) the Company shall pay Executive the Executive’s then current Base Salary for the period commencing the day after the Termination Date and continuing to the date twenty-four (24) months after the Termination Date (such period hereinafter referred to as the “Severance Period”).

     (ii) the Company shall pay to Executive a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s Annual Bonus for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs at the time that annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives (determined by multiplying the amount the Executive would have received had employment continued through the end of the performance year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the performance year of termination that the Executive is employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 365); plus

     (iii) a pro-rata portion of the Annual LTIC for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs shall be granted (as determined by multiplying all amounts of equity and cash the Executive would have received from said Annual LTIC had employment continued through the end of the performance year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the performance year of termination that the Executive is employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 365); plus

     (iv) subject to the Executive’s continued copayment of premiums, if applicable, at the contribution level paid by active employees, the Company shall at its expense provide for Executive to continue participation for all health and welfare plans which cover the Executive (and eligible dependents) pursuant to and in accordance with the Executive’s rights under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), for the maximum period of time beyond the Termination Date for which Executive (and any eligible dependant) is eligible for COBRA benefits (generally, eighteen (18) months).

     (b) Mitigation and Setoff. Executive shall not be required to mitigate (by seeking any other employment, self employment or any other income producing pursuit) any amounts or benefits payable to him upon termination of the Employment Period under this Agreement.

     (b) Extension of Medical Benefits. If the Employment Period is terminated pursuant to Section 5(e)(due to Executive’s death or Disability), then the Executive (and/or any immediate family eligible for the following coverage) also shall be entitled to continue participation in the Company’s group health plans on the same terms as set forth in Section 6(a)(iv) above.

8. Notice of Default. A party shall not be in default of this Agreement and/or any other agreement related to Executive’s employment with the Company (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”) until and unless the party alleging a default (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) shall first give written notice, specifying the nature of the alleged default, to the party or parties against which the default is alleged (the “Defaulting Party”) and to any other parties, and such default continues uncorrected for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by the Defaulting Party of such notice.

Such indemnification shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification Executive may have under applicable law or under the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company.

     (b) In the event of any dispute arising out of or under this Agreement or the Executive’s employment with the Company, if the arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, as applicable, determines that the Executive has prevailed, the Company shall, upon presentment of appropriate documentation, at the Executive’s election, pay or reimburse the Executive for all reasonable legal and other professional fees, costs of arbitration, court proceedings and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith by the Executive.
