Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated above in this Section 5(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Employee will only be treated as having Good Reason to terminate his employment pursuant to clauses (i) - (v) if the Employee has given Company notice and a period of at least thirty (30) days during which it can remedy any of such conditions and, during such period, the Company fails to remedy such condition.

A “Non-Control Acquisition” shall mean an acquisition by (A) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a party thereof) maintained by (1) the Company or (2) any corporation or other Person of which all of its voting power or its voting equity securities or equity interest is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company prior to such acquisition (for purposes of this definition, a “Subsidiary”, (B) the Company or its Subsidiaries, or (C) any Person in connection with a“Non-Control Transaction” (as hereinafter defined).

(ii) the individuals who, as of the date of this Agreement are members of the Board (the “Incumbent Board”), cease for any reason to constitute at leasttwo-thirds of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company;provided, however, that if the election, or nomination for election by the Company’s common stockholders, of any new director was approved by a vote of at leasttwo-thirds of the Incumbent Board, such new director shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board;provided, further,however, that no individual shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed officer as a result of either an actual or threatened “Election Contest” (as described in Rule14a-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board (a “Proxy Contest”) including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Election Contest or Proxy Contest; or

(iii) the consummation of:

(A) a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Company, unless such merger, consolidation or reorganization is a“Non-Control Transaction.” A “Non-Control Transaction” shall mean a merger consolidation or reorganization of the Company where (1) the stockholders of the Company, immediately before such merger, consolidation or reorganization, own directly or indirectly immediately following such merger, consolidation or reorganization, at leastfifty-one percent (51%) of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or reorganization (the “Surviving Corporation”) in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the Voting Securities immediately before such merger, consolidation or reorganization, (2) the individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for such merger, consolidation or reorganization constitute at leasttwo-thirds of the members of the board of directors of the Surviving Corporation, or a corporation beneficially directly or indirectly owning a majority of the Voting Securities of the Surviving Corporation, and (3) no Person other than(i) the Company,(ii) any Subsidiary, or(iii) any employee benefit plan (or any trust forming a part thereof) that, immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, was maintained by the Company, or any Subsidiary;

(B) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or

(C) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any Person (other than a transfer to a Subsidiary).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur (i) solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of Shares or Voting Securities then outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Persons, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Shares or Voting Securities which increases the percentage of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur.

Upon a Change in Control, and without regard to whether or not the Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated in connection therewith, all restrictions on any outstanding equity-based awards (including, without limitation, restricted stock and performance stock awards) then held by the Employee shall lapse and all performance targets and goals applicable to such awards in respect of any past or future period shall be deemed to have been met by the Company and the Employee, as applicable, for each period relevant to such award and all such

equity-based awards shall become and be deemed to be fully (100%) vested immediately prior to such Change in Control, and all stock options and stock appreciation rights granted to the Employee shall become fully (100%) vested and shall become immediately exercisable.

The Company’s obligation hereunder with respect to the foregoing benefits shall be limited to the extent that the Employee obtains any such benefits pursuant to a subsequent employer’s benefit plans, in which case the Company may reduce the coverage of any benefits it is required to provide the Employee hereunder as long as the aggregate coverage of the combined benefit plans is no less favorable to the Employee, in terms of amounts and deductibles and costs to him, than the coverage required to be provided hereunder.

(iii) for a period of twenty-four (24) months following such termination, the Company shall at its expense continue on behalf of the Employee and his dependents and beneficiaries the life insurance, disability, medical, dental and hospitalization benefits which were being provided to the Employee at the time Notice of Termination is given (or, if the Employee is terminated following a Change in Control, the benefits provided to the Employee at the time of the Change in Control, if greater). Post-termination medical, dental, and hospitalization coverage will run concurrently with the COBRA coverage period. The benefits provided in this subsection 6(c)(iii) shall be no less favorable to the Employee, in terms of amounts and deductibles and costs to him, than the coverage provided the Employee under the plans providing such benefits at the time Notice of Termination is given or at the time of the Change in Control if more favorable to the Employee. The Company’s obligation hereunder with respect to the foregoing benefits shall be limited to the extent that the Employee obtains any such benefits pursuant to a subsequent employer’s benefit plans, in which case the Company may reduce the coverage of any benefits it is required to provide the Employee hereunder as long as the aggregate coverage of the combined benefit plans is no less favorable to the Employee, in terms of amounts and deductibles and costs to him, than the coverage required to be provided hereunder. This subsection 6(c)(iii) shall not be interpreted so as to limit any benefits to which the Employee or his dependents may be entitled under any of the Company’s employee benefit plans, programs or practices following the Employee’s termination of employment, including, without limitation, retiree medical and life insurance benefits.

In the event the Employee’s severance and other benefits provided for in this Section 6 constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this subsection, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Employee’s severance and other benefits under this Section 6 will be payable either in full or in such lesser amount as would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise

tax imposed by Section 4999, in the Employee’s receipt on anafter-tax basis of the greatest amount of severance and other benefits. All determinations to be made pursuant to this Section 6(d), including without limitation whether partial payment or payment in full will provide the greatestafter-tax benefit to the Employee and the amount of any such partial payment to be made, shall be made by an independent public accounting firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Employee and such determinations shall be binding on the Company and the Employee. If the payments and benefits under Section 6 are required to be reduced, the cash severance shall be reduced first, followed by a reduction in the accelerated vesting of any equity awards, and last by the reduction of any other benefits.

(a) The Employee agrees that during the term of this Agreement and for two (2) years subsequent to termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason (the “Non-Compete Term”) the Employee shall not:

(i) Either directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, persons, company, firm, partnership, corporation, business, group or other entity (each, a “Person”), engage in any business or activity, whether as an employee, consultant, partner, principal, agent, representative, stockholder or other individual, corporate, or representative capacity, or render any services or provide any advice or substantial assistance to any business, person or entity, if such business, person or entity, directly or indirectly will in any way compete with the Company (a “Competing Business”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for purposes of this Section 13, it is understood that Competing Businesses shall include any business that is in direct competition with the Company;provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee may make passive investments in up to four percent (4%) of the outstanding publicly traded common stock of an entity which operates a Competing Business.

(ii) Either directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, solicit any Person who is, or who is, at the time of termination of the Employee’s employment, or has been within six (6) months prior to the time of termination of Employee’s employment, an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the purpose or with the intent of enticing such employee away from the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(iii) Either directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, solicit any Person who is, or who is, at the time of termination of the Employee’s employment, or has been within six (6) months prior to the time of termination of Employee’s employment, a customer or supplier of the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the purpose or with the intent of (A) inducing or attempting to induce such Person to cease doing business with the Company or (B) in any way interfering with the relationship between such Person and the Company.

(b) Specific Performance; Repayment of Certain Termination Payment Amounts. The Employee hereby acknowledges that the services to be rendered to the Company hereunder by the Employee are of a unique, special and extraordinary character which would be difficult or impossible for the Company to replace or protect, and by reason thereof, the Employee hereby agrees that in the event he violates any of the provisions of subsection 13(a) hereof, the Company shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to it, at law or otherwise, be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction in any state enjoining and restraining the Employee from committing any violation of said subsection 13(a).

The Employee agrees that, if he breaches subsection 13(a) of this Agreement, he shall have forfeited all right to receive any amounts payable to him pursuant to subsection 6(b)(ii) and (iii) or subsection 6(c)(ii) and (iii), as the case may be, and he shall promptly repay to the Company the entire amount theretofore paid to him or to his order by reason of any of said subsections.

(c) The covenants in this Section 13 are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth herein are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent that such court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereby be reformed to reflect the same.

(d) All of the covenants in this Section 13 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of the Employee against the Company whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants. It is specifically agreed that the period following the termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company during which the agreements and covenants of the Employee made in this Section 13 shall be effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which the Employee is in violation of any provision of this Section 13.

(e) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if any applicable law, judicial ruling or order shall reduce the time period during which the Employee shall be prohibited from engaging in any competitive activity described in Section 13 hereof, the period of time for which the Employee shall be prohibited pursuant to Section 13 hereof shall be the maximum time permitted by law.

14. Notice. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement (including the Notice of Termination) shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses last given by each party to the other, provided that all notices to the Company shall be directed to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer with a copy to the General Counsel. All notices and communications shall be deemed to have been received on the date of delivery thereof or on the third business day after the mailing thereof, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

15. Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the Employee’s continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plan or program provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and for which the Employee may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or reduce such rights as the Employee may have under

any other agreements with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the Employee is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan or program of the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall be payable in accordance with such plan or program, except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

16. Settlement of Claims. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, anyset-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which the Company may have against the Employee or others.

17. Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Company and the Employee made in Sections 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 17 and 18 of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

18. Federal Income Tax Withholding. The Company may withhold from any compensation and other amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.

19. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Deleware, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

20. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

21. Miscellaneous. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto or compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party will be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. Unless otherwise noted, references to “Sections” are to sections of this Agreement. The captions used in this Agreement are designed for convenient reference only and are not to be used for the purpose of interpreting any provision of this Agreement.

22. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Exhibits hereto and the Employee’s indemnification agreement with the Company) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, oral or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

23. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement.

24. Section 409A.

(a) To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement will be administered and interpreted in a manner consistent with this intent. The Company agrees to take all reasonable steps to ensure that Employee shall not be subject to any penalties with respect to any payments received hereunder. In the event that any guidance is issued by the Internal Revenue Service, or if a judicial decision is rendered, to the effect that arrangements similar to this Agreement do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A, the Company and Employee agree to take whatever reasonable actions may be necessary at such time in order to ensure that (i) the payments under this Agreement shall be in compliance with Section 409A and (ii) the Employee shall not be subject to any penalty under Section 409A with respect to his receipt of such payments.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any payments on account of a termination of employment that are subject to Section 409A shall not be made until Employee would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during thesix-month period immediately following Employee’s separation from service shall, if Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of his separation from service, instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following Employee’s separation from service (or Employee’s death, if earlier).

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided to Employee pursuant to this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A.

(d) With respect to expenses eligible for reimbursement under the terms of the Agreement, (i) the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in another taxable year (ii) any reimbursements of such expenses shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expenses were incurred, except, in each case, to the extent that the right to reimbursement does not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A; provided, however that with respect to any reimbursements for any taxes to which Employee becomes entitled under the terms of this Agreement, the payment of such reimbursements shall be made by the Company no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Employee remits the related taxes; and (iii) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax treatment to the Employee. The Employee shall be solely responsible for the tax consequences with respect to all amounts payable under this Agreement, and in no event shall the Company have any responsibility or liability if this Agreement does not meet any applicable requirements of Section 409A.

25. Release and Forfeiture of Severance Benefits. The right of Employee to receive or to retain Severance Benefits shall be in consideration for, and subject to, (1) execution of and delivery to the Company of a release of claims substantially in the form attached asExhibit C to this Agreement, amended as necessary to comply with applicable law (the “Release”) and lapse of the period for revocation, if any, of the Release without the Release having been revoked no later than 60 days after the Termination Date, and (2) Employee’s continued compliance with the covenants hereof. In the event that Employee breaches any of the Covenants, Company shall have the right to (a) terminate any further provision of Severance Benefits not yet paid or provided, (b) seek reimbursement from Employee for any and all such Severance Benefits previously paid or provided to Employee, (c) recover from Employee all shares of stock of Company the vesting of which, or the option to purchase, was accelerated by reason of the Severance Benefits (or the proceeds therefrom, reduced by any exercise or purchase price paid to acquire such shares), and (d) to immediately cancel all equity awards the vesting of which was accelerated by reason of the Severance Benefits. No Severance Benefits shall be paid until the 60th day following the Termination Date, subject to Section 24(b) hereof.
