Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as prohibiting Employee from continuing to serve as a director, officer or member of various professional, charitable and civic organizations in the same manner as immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement.

This agreement shall commence on January 1, 2003 and continue for an initial period of five (5) years, wherein it shall automatically renew annually and continue year to year unless terminated by either party.

(a) “Termination for Cause” means termination by Company of Employee’s employment (i) by reason of Employee’s willful dishonesty towards, fraud upon, or deliberate injury or attempted injury to, the Company, (ii) by reason of Employee’s material breach of this Agreement or (iii) by reason of Employee’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct with respect to the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such termination will be deemed to be a Termination for Cause unless the Company has provided Employee with written notice of what it reasonably believes are the grounds for any Termination for Cause and Employee fails to take appropriate remedial actions during the 30day period following receipt of such written notice.

(b) “Termination Other than For Cause” means termination by the Company of Employee’s employment by the Company for reasons other than those which constitute Termination for Cause.

In the event the Employee disagrees with the determination described in the previous sentence, Employee will have the right to submit to the Board a determination by a competent medical authority or authorities of Employee’s own choosing to the effect that the aforesaid determination is incorrect and that Employee is capable of performing Employee’s duties under this Agreement. If, upon receipt of such determination, the Board wishes to continue to seek to terminate this Agreement under the provisions of this section, the parties will submit the issue of Employee’s Disability to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

In the event of Employee’s death during the term of this Agreement, Employee’s employment is to be deemed to have terminated as of the last day of the month during which Employee’s death occurred, and Company will pay to Employee’s estate accrued salary, incentive compensation to the extent earned, vested deferred compensation (other than pension plan or profit sharing plan benefits, which will be paid in accordance with the applicable plan), and accrued vacation pay, all to the date of termination.

The Base Salary payable to Employee under this Section will initially be $ 400,000. Employee will be entitled to regular salary reviews and raises during the term of this Agreement in the same general manner as other officers of the Company.

During the term of his employment under this Agreement, the Employee will be eligible to participate in all bonus and incentive plans established by the Board including, without limitation, the Company’s 2003 Management Bonus Plan.

During the term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement, the Employee is to be eligible to participate in all employee benefit plans to the extent maintained by the Company, including (without limitation) any life, disability, health, accident and other insurance programs, paid vacations, and similar plans or programs, subject in each case to the generally applicable terms and conditions of the plan or program in question and to the determinations of any committee administering such plan or program. On termination of the Employee for any reason, the Employee will retain all of Employee’s rights to benefits that have vested under such plan, but the Employee’s rights to participate in those plans will cease on the Employee’s termination unless the termination is a Termination Other Than for Cause, in which case Employee’s rights of participation will continue for a period of one (1) year following Employee’s termination unless this provision is in conflict with the provisions of the above plans.

The Employee understands that the services to be rendered by Employee under this Agreement will cause the Employee to recognize taxable income, which is considered under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and applicable regulations thereunder as compensation income subject to the withholding of income tax (and Social Security or other employment taxes). The Employee hereby consents to the withholding of such taxes as are required by the Company.

During the term of this Agreement, Employee will be entitled to 5 weeks paid vacation time per year.

During the term of this Agreement, Company will reimburse Employee for Employee’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with Company’s business, including travel expenses, food, and lodging while away from home, subject to such policies as Company may from time to time reasonably establish for its employees.

During the term of Employee’s employment, the Company will pay up to a $1,000,000 million insurance policy, in the form designated by Employee and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, covering the life of Employee and with proceeds payable to such beneficiaries as Employee designates. The foregoing is to be in addition to, and not in place of, any rights to which Employee’s estate may be entitled under this Agreement on Employee’s death. Upon any termination of Employee’s employment, the aforementioned insurance policy will be assigned to the Employee and Employee will assume responsibility for all premium payments with respect the insurance policy; provided, however, that in the event that Employee’s termination is as a result of a Termination Other Than for Cause, then the Company will continue to pay for premiums for the insurance policy for a period of one (1) years from the date of Employee’s termination.

In the event Employee’s employment is terminated in a Termination Other Than for Cause, Employee will be paid as severance pay Employee’s Base Salary for the period commencing on the date that Employee’s employment is terminated and ending on the date which is three years thereafter, on the dates specified in Section 3.1 for payment of Employee’s Base Salary. In the event there is a change of ownership or control and Employee’s termination occurs after such change of ownership or control the amounts to be paid under this paragraph shall be accelerated and payment of all amounts due shall be within 30 days of termination. In the event of a change of ownership or control this contract will terminate at the Employee’s option and Employee may renegotiate this contract with the new owner’s should he so desire.

In the event Employee’s employment is terminated because of Employee’s disability pursuant to Section 2.5, Employee will be paid as severance pay Employee’s Base Salary for the period commencing on the date that Employee’s employment is terminated and ending on the date which is 60 months thereafter, on the dates specified in Section 3.1 for payment of Employee’s Base Salary.
