The Company reserves the right to change payout and eligibility guidelines in whole or part at any time subject to management discretion and business needs.

4.Management Long Term Incentive Plan.  You will be eligible to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Program LTIP.  The amount of your LTIP, if any, will be determined in the sole discretion of Radiant, with a target of 35% of your base compensation if all individual and Company management business objectives are achieved.  The bonus would be based upon management’s subjective view of a combination of (i) your individual contribution to Radiant and (ii) the overall performance of Radiant.  The Company performance must be at least 75% for a pay-out to occur but can also flex up to 150% based on performance.  This bonus will be paid by issuing Restricted Stock Units that vest at the third anniversary of the grant.  You must be employed by the Company at the time of award (annually) in order to be eligible.  The Company reserves the right to change the program and eligibility guidelines in whole or part at any time subject to management discretion and business needs.

6.Vacations and Holidays.  You will be entitled to receive 3 weeks of paid vacation in each calendar year. Such vacation to be taken in accordance with company policies and at times that do not unreasonably interfere with the performance of your duties as assigned.

7.Expenses.  You will be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses incurred by you in furtherance of your position with the Company, including travel and entertainment expense, upon submission of the appropriate documentation.

8.Employee-at-Will.  This offer does not guarantee continued employment for any specified period of time, nor does it require that a dismissal be based on "cause."  Your employment and compensation with the Company are "at will" in that they can be terminated with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time, at the option of either the Company or yourself, except as provided by law.  The terms of this offer letter, therefore, do not and are not intended to create either an express and/or implied contract of employment with the Company.  

9.Severance.  Provided you have been employed by the Company for six months, should your employment be terminated as a result of:  (i) your death; (ii) an illness or disability that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines prevents you from carrying out your employment duties; (iii) by the Company for no cause, i.e., if the termination was not a result of any misconduct on your part, then you will be entitled to receive severance payments from the Company in the form of salary continuation at your base salary level prior to such termination, plus a continuation of the medical benefits and car allowance benefits to which you were entitled at the time of such termination during the period of such severance payments.  The severance payments shall continue for a period of 6 months from the date of your termination under this Section.  However, should your employment be terminated by the Company for no cause or by you for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), either of which occur within nine months following a Change of Control, then:  (i) the severance payments will continue instead for a period of 12 months from the date of your termination under this Section; and (ii) the vesting of any and all Stock Options or other such grants or awards shall be deemed to have been accelerated as of the date of such termination to include the period for which such severance payments shall cover (i.e., for a period of 12 months of service).  “Good Reason” for purposes of this offer letter is (i) a breach of this offer letter by the Company; or (ii), a reduction in your salary without your consent, unless any such reduction is otherwise part of an overall reduction in executive compensation experienced on a pro rata basis by other similarly situated senior vice presidents of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to exist unless and until you have given the Company thirty (30) days' written notice and an opportunity to cure.  As a condition to the receipt of any severance payments from the Company, you shall be required to execute a separation agreement that shall include the broadest form of a waiver and release of all claims against the Company.  For the purposes of this Section, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to occur if there occurs a sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of substantially all of the assets of the Company to another entity, except to an entity controlled directly or indirectly by the Company, or a merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a plan of liquidation or dissolution of the Company other than pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

Should your employment be terminated as a result of: (i) your voluntary resignation; or (ii) by the Company as a result of actions taken, or omissions to act, by you that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines as misconduct by you, then the Company's only obligation shall be to pay you such portion of your base salary as may be accrued but unpaid on the date of termination.

10.Indemnification.  In addition, the Company shall indemnify and defend you and your heirs, executors and administrators against any costs or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement, if such settlement is approved by the Company), fine, penalty, judgment and liability

reasonably incurred by or imposed upon you in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, civil or criminal, to which you may be made a party or with which you shall be threatened, by reason of your being or having been an officer or director, unless with respect to such matter you shall have been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith or in the reasonable belief that the action was in the best interests of the Company, or unless such indemnification is precluded by law, public policy, or in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, such indemnification is being sought as a result of your actions which were either:  (i) grossly negligent; (ii) reflective of your misconduct; (iii) in violation of rules, regulations or laws applicable to the Company; or (iv) in disregard of Company's policies.

11.Full-Time Position.  You agree that your employment hereunder will be full time, to the exclusion of any other employment that would impede your full-time duties hereunder.  You will conscientiously and diligently perform all required acts and duties to the best of your ability, and in a manner satisfactory to the Company.  You will faithfully discharge all responsibilities and duties entrusted to you.

12.Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.  In recognition of the matter of trust and fiduciary capacity in which you will be employed by the Company, you will be expected, during your term of employment and thereafter, not to disclose to any third party any "Confidential Information" you receive relative to the Company.  For this purpose, the term Confidential Information includes information relative to the Company's method of operations, customer base, strategies and objectives, pricing information, financial information, proprietary or licensed data, identity of vendors utilized by the Company, computer programs, system documentation, product offerings, software or hardware, manuals, formulae, processes, methods, inventions or other information or materials relating to the Company's affairs that are not otherwise publicly available.  You also acknowledge that such Confidential Information constitutes a major asset of the Company, and that the use, misappropriation or disclosure of Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust and could cause irreparable injury to the Company and that it is essential for the protection of the Company's goodwill and maintenance of the Company's competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept secret and that you neither disclose the Confidential Information to others nor use the Confidential Information to your own advantage or to the advantage of others.  In addition, you shall not:  (i) engage in any activities that may be viewed as competitive with the Company during your employment and any period in which severance payments are made or offered to you (which in the case of a lump sum payment, includes any period of salary continuation over which the payment was to have related) and (ii) for a period of 12 months following employment, directly or indirectly, solicit any business from, or relationships with, any past, present or prospective employees, customers or suppliers of the Company.
