WHEREAS, the Company desires that the Executive serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors (the Company Board) of the Company, and the Executive desires to hold such positions under the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Company Board has approved and authorized the Company to enter into this Agreement with the Executive.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:
1. Employment. The Company hereby employs the Executive, and the Executive hereby accepts employment with the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
2. Term. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof, the term of employment by the Company of the Executive pursuant to this Agreement (as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the Term) shall commence and become effective as of November 1, 2010 (the Effective Date), and terminate on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, if not earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each subsequent anniversary thereof, the Term shall automatically be extended for (1) additional year unless, not later than ninety (90) days prior to such anniversary date, either party hereto shall have notified the other party hereto in writing that such extension shall not take effect.

(b) In addition to the Base Salary, during the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual target bonus of 100% (with a maximum payout of 200%) of the Executives applicable Base Salary for such year.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, as amended and the rules and regulations thereunder (Section 409A): (1) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement during a calendar year will not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any other calendar year, and (2) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
9. Health and Welfare Benefits. During the Term, the Executive shall be entitled to enjoy similar fringe benefits to those offered to the Companys similarly situated senior executive officers as described in Exhibit B. In furtherance of the foregoing, during the Term, the Executive and eligible members of his family shall be eligible to participate fully in all (i) health and dental benefits and insurance programs, (ii) life insurance and short- and long-term disability benefits and other insurance programs and (iii) retirement benefits, all as available to senior executive officers of the Company generally.
