10

15. Resolution of Disputes.

Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement, other than seeking injunctive relief under Section 14, shall be resolved by binding arbitration, to be held at an office in New York, New York closest to the Company’s principal offices in accordance with the Commercial rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association, except that disputes arising under or in connection with Sections 11, 12 and 13 above shall be submitted to the federal or state courts in the State of New York, New York County.

16. Indemnification.

(a) Company Indemnity. The Company agrees that if the Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that Executive is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any Subsidiary as a director, officer, member, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executive’s alleged action in an official capacity while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent legally permitted or authorized by the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or resolutions of the Company’s Board of Directors or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Delaware, against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to the Executive even if Executive has ceased to be a director, member, officer, employee or agent of the Company or other entity and shall inure to the benefit of the Executive s heirs, executors and administrators.

(b) No Presumption Regarding Standard of Conduct. Neither the failure of the Company (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the Executive under Section 16(a) above that indemnification of the Executive is proper because Executive has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor a determination by the Company (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

(c) Liability Insurance. The Company agrees to continue and maintain a directors and officers liability insurance policy covering the Executive to the extent the Company provides such coverage for its other executive officers, but in no event less than the amount the Company is providing to the Executive on the date of termination of this Agreement.

Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the existence of this Agreement shall not be interpreted to preclude, prohibit or restrict the Executive’s participation in any other employee benefit or other plans or programs in which Executive currently participates.

11

18. Assignability; Binding Nature.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of the Executive) and permitted assigns. No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred to a subsidiary of the Company or in connection with the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law.

29. Tax Matters

(a) Tax Withholding. The Company shall withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

13

(b) Section 409A Compliance. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidelines promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. If Executive notifies the Company (with specificity as to the reason therefore) that Executive believes that any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation, including equity compensation or benefits) would cause Executive to incur any additional tax or interest under Code Section 409A, the Company shall, after consulting with Executive, reform such provision to try to comply with Code Section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Code Section 409A. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to Executive and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provision of Code Section 409A.

(c) Special Section 409A Rules. This paragraph shall apply to all or any portion of any payment or benefit a payable under the Agreement as a result of termination of Executive’s employment that is not exempted from Code Section 409A (“409A Severance Compensation”).

(i) Separation from Service. If the termination of the Employee’s employment does not qualify as a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(h) from the “Company’s Controlled Group”, then any 409A Severance Compensation will not commence until a “separation from service” occurs or, if earlier, the earliest other date as is permitted under Code Section 409A. For this purpose, the “Company’s Controlled Group” means the Company (i) any corporation which is a member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in Code Section 414(b)) which includes the Company and (ii) any trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which is under common control (as defined in Code Section 414(c)) with the Company.

(ii) Six-Month Delay for “Specified Employees”. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A (a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is specified as subject to this Section, such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier or (i) the expiration of six (6)-month period measured from the date of Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined under Code Section 409A), and (ii) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 30(c) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in absence of such delay) shall be reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(d) Excise Tax Reimbursement. If the Executive becomes entitled to one or more payments (with a “payment” including, without limitation, the vesting of an option or other non-cash benefit or property), whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement, or agreement with the Company or any affiliated company (the “Total Payments”), which are or become subject to the tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (or any similar tax that may hereafter be imposed) (the “Excise Tax”), the Company shall pay to the Executive an additional amount equal to the amount of the Excise Tax imposed.
