WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), after a recommendation from the Compensation Committee of the Board, has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

1.    Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control.

1.1.     Definition of Terms

(a)    “Accelerated Vesting Benefit” shall mean that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or stock-based award agreement, all time-based stock options and other time-based stock-based awards held by the Executive shall immediately accelerate and become fully exercisable, vested or nonforfeitable as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company.

(b)    ”Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the acquisition other than by the Control Group by an individual, entity, group or any other person of beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) or more of either (x) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or (y) the combined voting power of the election of directors for the Company; and/or (ii) the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or a merger or sale of stock wherein the holders of the Company’s capital stock immediately prior to such sale do not hold at least a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Company or its successor immediately following such sale; (iii) the Company’s stockholders approve and complete any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; and/or (iv) individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequently to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board.

(c)    “Continuation Benefits” shall consist of the Company paying the difference between the cost of COBRA continuation coverage, should the Executive elect to receive it, for the Executive and any dependent who received health insurance coverage prior to termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, and any premium contribution amount applicable to the Executive as of such termination, for a period of 12 months following the date of termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company. Continuation Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive will be reduced to the extent benefits of the same type are received by him or her during the applicable 12-month period (and any such benefits received by the Executive shall be reported by him or her to the Company).

(e)    An “Event of Constructive Termination” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events at any time during the 24-month period following the occurrence of a Change in Control:

provided, that no such event or occurrence shall constitute an Event of Constructive Termination unless (x) written notice thereof is given by the Executive to the Company within ninety (90) days of its occurrence, (y) the Company shall fail to remedy or cure such event or occurrence within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice from the Executive, and (z) the Executive shall within sixty (60) days after the expiration of such 30-day period give written notice to the Company of the Executive’s election to terminate the Executive’s employment pursuant to this paragraph by reason of such event or occurrence.

2

(f)    “Severance Amount” shall be an amount equal to one times the sum of (i) the Executive’s base annual salary and (ii) the Executive’s annual target bonus, in each case at the highest rate in effect at any time during the 12 months immediately preceding the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

1.2.     Termination for Cause. In the event of termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause following a Change in Control, all compensation of the Executive and any other rights the Executive may have under this Agreement shall cease upon the termination date of his or her employment, the Executive shall receive no Severance Amount, no Continuation Benefits, no Accelerated Vesting Benefit and no further payments or benefits shall be paid or payable to the Executive by the Company for any period thereafter, except to the extent that the Executive shall have accrued benefits under any retirement plan adopted by the Company for the benefit of its employees and except for all compensation owing hereunder to the Executive as of the date of termination for Cause.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

(a)    the Executive has been charged by the United States or a state or political subdivision thereof with conduct which is a felony or which is a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or fraud under the laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof;

(d)    the Executive’s material failure to comply with reasonable policies, directives, standards and regulations adopted by the Company, including, without limitation, the Company’s policies regarding insider trading, except any such failure, that, if capable of cure, is remedied by the Executive within thirty (30) days after the Executive’s receipt of written notice from the Company referring to this paragraph and describing with specificity the failure of the Executive to comply; and

(e)    material breach by the Executive of the Invention, Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement by and between the Executive and the Company (the “Employee Agreement”) or any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company, except any such breach, that, if capable of cure, is remedied by the Executive within thirty (30) days after the Executive’s receipt of written notice from the Company referring to this paragraph and describing with specificity the breach by the Executive.

3

1.3.     Voluntary Termination by Executive.

(a)    The Executive may voluntarily terminate the Executive’s employment at any time by written notice to the Company, in which case the Executive shall receive no Severance Amount, no Continuation Benefits, no Accelerated Vesting Benefit and no further payments or benefits shall be paid or payable to the Executive by the Company for any period after such termination of employment, except to the extent that the Executive shall have accrued benefits under any plan adopted by the Company for the benefit of its employees generally and except for all compensation owing hereunder to the Executive as of the date of voluntary termination.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Constructive Termination the Executive may, by written notice to the Company pursuant to clause (z) of Section 1.1(e) above, voluntarily terminate his or her employment with the Company, and in such event: (i) within ten (10) days of the date of such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum the Severance Amount, plus all other compensation, including, without limitation, any commissions earned but not yet paid, owed by the Company to the Executive as of the date of his or her termination; (ii) the Company shall provide to the Executive the Continuation Benefits for a period of 12 months following such termination; and (iii) the Executive shall receive the Accelerated Vesting Benefit as of such date of termination.

1.4.     Termination by the Company without Cause Following a Change in Control. In the event that the Executive’s employment under this Agreement is terminated by the Company other than for Cause at any time during the 24-month period following a Change in Control, then: (i), on the date of such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum the Severance Amount, plus all other compensation, including, without limitation, any commissions earned but not yet paid, owed by the Company to the Executive as of the date of his or her termination; (ii) the Company shall provide to the Executive the Continuation Benefits for a period of 12 months following such termination; and (iii) the Executive shall receive the Accelerated Vesting Benefit as of such date of termination.

2.    Other Provisions.

2.1.     Amounts Payable Less Withholding Taxes. The amounts payable by the Company hereunder shall be less any applicable withholding for federal, state or local income and employment taxes.

2.2.     Parachute Payments. In the event that the Severance Amount, the Continuation Benefits, the Accelerated Vesting Benefits and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (ii) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive’s benefits under this Agreement shall be either:

(a)    delivered in full, or

4

(b)    delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Executive on an after–tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. If a reduction in severance and other benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that benefits are delivered to a lesser extent, reduction will occur in the following order: reduction of cash payments, cancellation of equity awards granted within the 12-month period prior to a “change in control” (as determined under Code Section 280G) that are deemed to have been granted contingent upon the change in control (as determined under Code Section 280G), cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards, reduction of employee benefits.

Unless the Company and the Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Section 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section.

2.3.     Section 409A. It is intended that this Agreement comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance thereunder (collectively referred to as “Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall, to the maximum extent possible, be administered, interpreted, and construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A. If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Executive’s employment shall be made unless and until the Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement provides for payment within a time period, the determination of when such payment shall be made within such time period shall be solely in the discretion of the Company; provided, however, that if for the period for providing and not revoking a Release at Section 2.4 below spans two calendar years, no payment shall be made until the second calendar year. In the case of any amounts payable under this Agreement that may be treated as payable in the form of “a series of installment payments,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii), the right to receive such payments shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments for purposes of such Treasury Regulation. If the Executive is a “specified employee” as determined pursuant to Section 409A as of the date of termination of employment and if any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement or otherwise both (x) constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and (y) cannot be paid or provided in the manner otherwise provided without subjecting the Executive to additional tax, interest, or penalties under Section 409A, then any such payment or benefit shall be delayed until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after the Executive’s “separation from

5

service” within the meaning of Section 409A for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of the Executive’s death. Any payment or benefit otherwise payable or to be provided to the Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following “separation from service” that is not so paid or provided by reason of this Section 2.3 shall be accumulated and paid or provided to the Executive in a single lump sum, as soon as practicable (and in all events within 15 days) after the date that is six (6) months after the Executive’s “separation from service” (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable, and in all events within fifteen (15) days, after the date of the Executive’s death). All subsequent payments or benefits, if any, shall be payable or provided in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder shall be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted to so comply. The Company and the Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions that are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to the Executive under Section 409A.

2.4.     Noncompetition Agreement and Release. It shall be a condition to the receipt by the Executive of any payment or benefit pursuant to this Agreement that the Executive shall have executed and delivered to the Company a noncompetition agreement (the “Noncompetition Agreement”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, and a general release (the “Release”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B hereto. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Employee Agreement, except to the extent superseded by the Noncompetition Agreement, is a binding and enforceable obligation of the Executive that inures to the benefit of the Company’s successors and assigns, including any corporation with which or into which the Company may be merged or which may succeed to its assets or business in a Change in Control. The timing of any payment or benefit pursuant to this Agreement shall be governed by the following provisions. The Executive must execute and deliver the Release within 21 days after termination of employment. If the Executive has revocation rights, such rights must be exercised, if at all, not later than seven days after execution of the Release. The Executive shall not receive the Severance Amount nor the Continuation Benefits unless and until any revocation period has expired and the Release is effective.

2.5.     Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally (including by overnight courier) or, if sent by regular mail, three days after the date of deposit in the United States mails addressed as follows:

or to such other address as either party may from time to time provide to the other by notice as provided in this section.

2.7.     Waiver or Amendment.

(a)    The waiver by either party of a breach or violation of any term or provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement or of any other right or remedy.

(b)    No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is set forth in a writing that specifically refers to this Agreement and is signed by the Executive and the Company.

2.8.     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to its conflict of laws rules.

2.9.     Successors; Assignment. The Company shall require any successor via a Change in Control (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to assume expressly 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. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, each of the Company and the Executive and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

2.10.    Severability. The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement or any part hereof. If any part of this Agreement shall be declared invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid part had not been inserted.

2.11.    Section Headings. The section and subsection headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect any way the meaning, construction or interpretation of any or all of the provisions of this Agreement.

2.12.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the separate parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to constitute an original and all of which shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.

2.13.    Authority to Execute. The undersigned representative of the Company represents and warrants that he has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement on behalf of the Company, and that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been authorized by the Board. Upon the Executive’s acceptance of this Agreement by signing and returning it to the Company, this Agreement will become binding upon the Executive and the Company.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first written above.

8.    MISCELLANEOUS.

(a)    No delay or omission by the Company in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right. A waiver or consent given by the Company on any one occasion shall be effective only in that instance and shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any right on any other occasion.

11

(b)    The captions of the sections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and in no way define, limit or affect the scope or substance of any section of this Agreement.
