CIVCO DIVESTITURE PAYMENTS CONFIDENTIAL CIVCO DIVESTITURE PAYMENTS: As incentive to motivate Charles Klasson and certain other CIVCO employees to maximize the sales price in the event the Board elects to sell the CIVCO subsidiary, the Colorado MEDtech Board of Directors approves the following plan. DIVESTITURE PAYMENT FORMULA: If the Board approves a sale of CIVCO, the payment pool for this transaction is calculated as follows: No payment if the gross sale price is less than $55,000,000. If the gross sale price for CIVCO is $55,000,000, the payment pool will be $100,000. For each additional dollar above $55,000,000, the pool will be increased by $.01 (1% of all funds above $55,000,000). The Divestiture Payment Pool will be distributed as follows: Charles Klasson 50% Other Key Employees 50% The portion distributed to other key employees will be distributed to the employees selected by Charles Klasson, Stephen Onody and Greg Gould with final approval of the Board. Payout will be made in two parts: 50% on the closing date of a transaction and 50% one year after the closing date of a transaction. To receive the first 50% payment, an individual must be an employee of CIVCO on the day the transaction closes or have been terminated within 90 days prior to the close of the transaction for a reason other than cause. For the second 50% payment the employee must stay in continuous employment with CIVCO or the new company for a period of one year from the date of the transaction. However, if the employee is terminated from the new company or CIVCO for any reason other than cause after the transaction date but prior to the one year anniversary, the remaining 50% portion of the payment is due on the termination date of the employee. If the gross sale price for CIVCO is $67,000,000 or more, Charles Klasson will receive an additional $100,000 above and beyond the amount received as his portion of the payment pool described above, payable upon the closing of the transaction. The gross sales price will be calculated as follows: Funds received for transaction - ((Assets - Liabilities, sold in the transaction) - (CIVCO assets - CIVCO Liabilities, as of 12/31/02)) = CIVCO gross sale price. Any non-cash consideration received shall be valued by the Board of Directors in good faith. COLORADO MEDTECH, INC.
