(b)           The Company and the Executive hereby agree that, if the Executive is affiliated with the Company on the date on which a Change of Control occurs (the "Change of Control Date"), the Company will continue to retain the Executive and the Executive will remain affiliated with the Company for the period commencing on the Change of Control Date and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Change in Control Date, to exercise such authority and perform such executive duties as are commensurate with the authority being exercised and duties being performed by the Executive immediately prior to the Change of Control Date. If after the Change of Control Executive is requested, and, in his sole and absolute discretion, consents to change his principal business location, the Company will reimburse the Executive for his reasonable relocation expenses, including, without limitation, moving expenses, temporary living and travel expenses for a reasonable time while arranging to move his residence to the changed location, closing costs, if any, associated with the sale of his existing residence and the purchase of a replacement residence at the changed location, plus an additional amount representing a gross-up of any state or federal taxes payable by the Executive as a result of any such reimbursement. If the Executive shall not consent to change his business location, the Executive may continue to provide the services required of him hereunder from his then residence and/or business address, and the Company shall continue to maintain an office for the Executive at that location commensurate with the Company's office prior to the Change of Control Date.

(c)           During the remaining Term of this Agreement commencing upon the Change of Control Date, the Company will (i) continue to pay Executive a salary at not less than the level applicable to Executive on the Change of Control Date; (ii) pay Executive Bonuses in amounts not less in amount than those paid during the twelve (12) month period preceding the Change of Control Date; and (iii) continue employee benefit programs as to Executive at levels in effect on the Change of Control Date (but subject to such reductions as may be required to maintain such plans in compliance with applicable federal law regulating employee benefit programs).

(d)           If during the remaining Term of this Agreement after the Change of Control Date (i) Executive's employment is terminated by the Company; or (ii) there shall have occurred a material reduction in Executive's compensation or employment related benefits, or a material change in the Executive's status, working conditions, management responsibilities or titles, and Executive voluntarily terminates his relationship with the Company within sixty (60) days of an such occurrence, or the last in a series of occurrences, then Executive shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the compensation provided for in Section 5(c), and subject to the provisions of subsections (e) and (f) below, a lump sum payment equal to two hundred percent (200%) of Executive's "base period income" as determined under (e) below, plus an additional amount representing a gross-up of any state or federal taxes payable by Executive as a result of any such payment plus any amount of Tax True-up associated with issuance of equity securities pursuant to 5(c)(iv) and 5(c)(v) above. Such amounts will be paid to Executive within thirty (30) days after his termination of his affiliation with the Company and/or upon such time that the Tax True-up amount is determinable.

(e)           The Executive's "base period income" shall be his Base Salary and Bonuses paid or payable to him during or with respect to the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of his termination of affiliation.

(f)            In the event of a proposed Change in Control, the Company will allow Executive to participate in all meetings and negotiations related thereto.

7.              Section 409A Compliance.

(a)           All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(b)           To the extent that any of the payments or benefits provided for in Section 5(b) are deemed to constitute non-qualified deferred compensation benefits subject to Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), the following interpretations apply to Section 5: Any termination of the Executive's employment triggering payment of benefits under Section 5(b) must constitute a "separation from service" under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) before distribution of such benefits can commence. To the extent that the termination of the Executive's employment does not constitute a separation of service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) (as the result of further services that are reasonably anticipated to be provided by the Executive to the Company or any of its parents, subsidiaries or affiliates at the time the Executive's employment terminates), any benefits payable under Section 5 that constitute deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code shall be delayed until after the date of a subsequent event constituting a separation of service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h). For purposes of clarification, this Section 7(b) shall not cause any forfeiture of benefits on the Executive's part, but shall only act as a delay until such time as a "separation from service" occurs. Further, if the Executive is a "specified employee" (as that term is used in Section 409A of the Code and regulations and other guidance issued thereunder) on the date his separation from service becomes effective, any benefits payable under Section 5 that constitute non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code shall be delayed until the earlier of (i) the business day following the six-month anniversary of the date his separation from service becomes effective; and (ii) the date of the Executive's death, but only to the extent necessary to avoid such penalties under Section 409A of the Code. On the earlier of (i) the business day following the six-month anniversary of the date his separation from service becomes effective; and (ii) the Executive's death, the Company shall pay the Executive in a lump sum the aggregate value of the non-qualified deferred compensation that the Company otherwise would have paid the Executive prior to that date under Section 5(b) of this Agreement. It is intended that each installment of the payments and benefits provided under Section 5(b) of this Agreement shall be treated as a separate "payment" for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Executive shall have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code.

8.              Confidential Information.

(a)           As used in this Agreement, "Confidential Information" means information belonging to the Company which is of value to the Company in the course of conducting its business and the disclosure of which could result in a competitive or other disadvantage to the Company. Confidential Information includes, without limitation, financial information, reports, and forecasts; inventions, improvements and other intellectual property; trade secrets; know-how; designs, processes or formulae; software; market or sales information or plans; customer lists; business plans, prospects and opportunities (such as possible acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or facilities) which have been discussed or considered by the management of the Company. Confidential Information includes information developed by the Executive in the course of the Executive's employment by the Company, as well as other information to which the Executive may have access in connection with his employment. Confidential Information also includes the confidential information of others with which the Company has a business relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include (i) information which now or in the future comes into the public domain, unless due to breach of the Executive's duties under this Section 8(a); (ii) information which is disclosed to Executive by others who are not, to Executive's actual knowledge, under obligation of nondisclosure to the Company; (iii) information which is independently developed by the Executive without breach of the Executive's duties under this Section 8(a); or (iv) information which is disclosed by the Company to others without obligation of confidentiality.

(b)          At all times, both during the Executive's employment with the Company and after its termination, the Executive will keep in confidence and trust all Confidential Information, and will not use or disclose for his own benefit or the benefit of any other Person any such Confidential Information without the written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing the Executive's duties to the Company.

9.            Documents, Records, Etc. All documents, records, data, apparatus, equipment and other physical property, whether or not pertaining to Confidential Information, which are furnished to the Executive by the Company or are produced by the Executive in connection with the Executive's employment will be and remain the sole property of the Company. The Executive will return to the Company all such materials and property as and when requested by the Company. In any event, the Executive will return all such materials and property immediately upon termination of the Executive's employment for any reason. The Executive will not retain any such material or property or any copies thereof after the termination of his employment.

10.         Non-Competition. From the Effective Date through the second (2") anniversary of the Termination Date, regardless of the reason for such termination or expiration (the "Restricted Period") the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, shareholder, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise, engage, prepare to engage, participate, assist or invest in any Competing Business anywhere in the United States or any other geographic area in which the Company is actively distributing its products or providing its services as of the Termination Date.

(b)         To the extent, if any, that the Executive retains any right, title or interest with respect to any Creations delivered to the Company or related to his employment with the Company, the Executive hereby grants to the Company an irrevocable, paid-up, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide right and license: (i) to modify all or any portion of such Creations, including, without limitation, the making of additions to or deletions from such Creations, regardless of the medium (now or hereafter known) into which such Creations may be modified and regardless of the effect of such modifications on the integrity of such Creations; and (ii) to identify the Executive, or not to identify his, as one or more authors of or contributors to such Creations or any portion thereof, whether or not such Creations or any portion thereof have been modified. The Executive further waives any "moral" rights, or other rights with respect to attribution of authorship or integrity of such Creations that he may have under any applicable law, whether under copyright, trademark, unfair competition, defamation, and right of privacy, contract, tort or other legal theory.

(c)         The Executive will promptly inform the Company of any Creations. The Executive will also allow the Company to inspect any Creations he conceives or develops within one (1) year after the termination of his employment for any reason to determine if they are based on Confidential Information.

The Executive's obligation to execute written instruments and otherwise assist the Company in securing its rights in the Creations will continue after the termination of his employment for any reason. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for any out-of-pocket expenses (but not attorneys' fees) he incurs in connection with his compliance with this Section 12(c).

13.          Acknowledgement.

During the Term and thereafter, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Executive and the Executive's heirs and representatives harmless, to the maximum extent permitted by law, against any and all damages, costs, liabilities, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) as a result of any claim or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative), or any threatened claim or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative), against the Executive that arises out of or relates to the Executive's service as an officer, director or employee, as the case may be, of the Company, or the Executive's service in any such capacity or similar capacity with any affiliate of the Company or other entity at the Company's request, both prior to and after the Effective Date, and to promptly advance to the Executive or the Executive's heirs or representatives such expenses, including litigation costs and attorneys' fees, upon written request with appropriate documentation of such expense upon receipt of an undertaking by the Executive or on the Executive's behalf to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the Executive is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. During the Term and thereafter, the Company also shall provide the Executive with coverage under its current directors' and officers' liability policy to the same extent that it provides such coverage to its other executive officers. If the Executive has any knowledge of any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, as to which the Executive may request indemnity under this provision, the Executive will give the Company prompt written notice thereof; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Executive's right to indemnification. The Company shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such proceeding and the Executive will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such defense. To the extent that the Executive in good faith determines that there is an actual or potential conflict of interest between the Company and the Executive in connection with the defense of a proceeding, the Executive shall so notify the Company and shall be entitled to separate representation at the Company's expense by counsel selected by the Executive (provided that the Company may reasonably object to the selection of counsel within ten (10) business days after notification thereof) which counsel shall cooperate, and coordinate the defense, with the Company's counsel and minimize the expense of such separate representation to the extent consistent with the Executive's separate defense.

(b)         Notwithstanding anything else provided in this Agreement, the Executive agrees that it would be difficult to measure any damages caused to the Company which might result from any breach by the Executive of Sections 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 of this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Executive breaches or proposes to breach, any term of Sections 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies that it may have, to a temporary and preliminary injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or providing any actual damage to the Company from any court having competent jurisdiction over the Executive.

The Company shall require any successor to the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

19.          Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

20.          Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.
