------------------------------

so ill or disabled as to be permanently incapacitated from performing the
duties of his employment with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (this disability to be certified by two
(2) physicians competent to do so in the opinion of the Board), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall
provide ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with Disability Benefits until either the disability
terminates, if earlier, or until ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ reaches age fifty-five (55) at which
time he shall be entitled to receive the Retirement Benefits set forth in
Section 6(b) above. Such Retirement Benefits, however, shall be calculated on
the basis of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Final Average Annual Compensation at the time of his
disability, not the time of his retirement. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ becomes disabled
subsequent to his attaining age fifty-five (55), but prior to his retirement,

would have received or which would have been accrued for his benefit during the
period of six (6) months immediately following his death if he had lived and
had been employed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ during that period. Such payment shall be made
in one lump sum or in six (6) equal monthly installments as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall
elect and shall be in addition to the proceeds of any insurance policies
carried on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ life with respect to which he has the right to designate
beneficiaries. Also, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ spouse an amount,
periodically as such payments are required to be made by said spouse, to enable
her to continue medical coverage for her and her dependents in the same manner
as immediately prior to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ death for a period expiring at the earlier
of: (i) her death; (ii) forty-two (42) months after ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ death; or (iii)
eligibility for regular Medicare and Medicaid or any successor programs
furnished by the government. Thereafter, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall make available to
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ spouse (including her dependents), at her cost, such medical coverage

(a) TERMINATION OR DISCHARGE WITHOUT CAUSE. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserves the
right to discharge ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any time and for any reason and not to renew this

estate) with the following severance benefits:
(i) If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ does not renew this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

Annual Compensation Value, which shall be reduced by seventy percent (70%) of
the amount of compensation received by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ from any subsequent employment
obtained by him during said payment period.

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled to receive for a period expiring two (2) years from
the date of discharge, payments from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in an amount equal to his Annual
Compensation Value, which shall be reduced by seventy percent (70%) of the
amount of compensation received by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ from any subsequent employment
obtained by him during said payment period.
(iii) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled, during the period expiring
on the earlier of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ securing other employment or two (2) years from the

17
of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, may be provided outside of such program through the purchase of
insurance or otherwise.
(iv) For purposes of determining ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ benefits under
the Supplemental Plan, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall receive credit toward his Years of Service

addition, during the time period that he receives or is entitled to receive
payments under said subsections (i) or (ii) of this Section 8(a), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇
Base Compensation shall be deemed to be increased by the annual economic range
adjustment for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' salaried employees announced in October of each year
(or, if there is no such announced economic range adjustment in a given year,
by an assumed five (5%) increase for that year) in order to calculate his
highest earnings during five (5) consecutive years out of the last ten (10)
years prior to retirement under the Supplemental Plan, and his Final Annual
Compensation (see Section 8(d) below) and Final Average Annual Compensation
shall be deemed to increase in the same manner for purposes of determining the
amount of his Retirement Benefits under this Agreement.
(v) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be reimbursed for up to $20,000 for
out-placement fees if he chooses to seek other employment following his
discharge by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be obligated to seek other employment
in order to mitigate his damages resulting from his discharge.
(vi) In addition to all of the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be
entitled to receive the payments required of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under his
17
18
then-existing deferred compensation agreement(s) with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance
with the terms of such agreement(s).
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges that he shall remain subject to and
bound by the restrictive provisions of Section 9 below.
(b) DISCHARGE FOR CAUSE. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ employment with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is
terminated by a Discharge For Cause, regardless of whether such Discharge For
Cause occurs after the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Sections
8(d) or 8(e) below, he shall be entitled to receive only his Base Compensation
up to the date of his discharge and no further payments hereunder shall be
required from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; provided, however, that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled to
receive his benefits, if any, under the Pension Plan and the payments required
of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under his then-existing deferred compensation agreement(s) with
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance with the terms of such agreement(s). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall
remain subject to the restrictive provisions of Section 9 below for a period
for two (2) years from the date of discharge. Should ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ disagree that his
discharge was a Discharge For Cause the question shall be submitted to
arbitration in accordance with Section 10 below.
(c) TERMINATION DUE TO DISABILITY. If, by reason of illness,
disability, or other incapacity (certified in accordance with Section 7(a)
above), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is unable to perform the duties required of him under this
Agreement for a period of six (6) consecutive months, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, following the
giving of thirty (30) days' written notice to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the failure of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ by reason of illness, disability, or other incapacity to resume his
duties within such thirty (30) days and thereafter perform the same
18
19
for a period of two (2) consecutive months, may terminate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ employment
by giving ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ written notice thereof; and in that event all obligations of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereunder shall cease on the date such notice of termination is given
except for: (1) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' obligation to pay the Disability Benefits under
Section 7 above; (ii) payment of the Retirement Benefits under Section 6 above;
(iii) payments required of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ then-existing deferred
compensation agreement(s) in accordance with the terms of such agreement(s);
and (iv) benefits, if any, under medical and hospital care insurance coverage
for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ comparable to that provided for other employees of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇;
provided, however, such insurance benefits shall be coordinated with the
benefits ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is entitled to receive under regular Medicare and Medicaid or
any successor programs furnished by the government. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is at least age
fifty-five (55) at the time ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ gives notice under this Section 8(c), he
shall be deemed to have elected retirement under this Agreement.
(d) BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. If
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ voluntarily terminates his employment or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is discharged by
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and such discharge is not a Discharge For Cause, and if such voluntary
termination or involuntary discharge takes place within eighteen (18) months
after the occurrence of any of the following events:
(i) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is required by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, prior to a Change in
Control, to perform duties or services which differ significantly from those
performed by him on the effective date hereof, or which are not ordinarily and
generally performed by a
19
20
President of a division or corporation similar in size and scope to the
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Computer Systems Division; or
(ii) The nature of the duties or services which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
prior to a Change in Control, requires him to perform necessitates absence
overnight from his place of residence on the effective date hereof, because of
travel involving the business or affairs of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, for more than ninety (90)
days during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be
entitled to receive from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ all of the severance benefits set forth in
Section 8(a) above, except that severance payments shall be made until the
later of the end of the term of this Agreement or two (2) years from the date
of his termination of employment and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ right to receive his Retirement
Benefits upon attaining age fifty-five (55) shall be based upon his Final
Annual Compensation, as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 8(a)(iv)
above. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall remain subject to and bound by the restrictive provisions
of Section 9 below.
(e) BENEFITS UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ recognizes that
the threat of a Change in Control would be of significant concern to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
The following provisions provide termination protection for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in the
event of a Change in Control. These provisions, among other purposes, are
intended to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and encourage ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ continued attention and dedication
to his duties in the event of such potentially disturbing and disruptive
circumstances. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, therefore, agrees to do the following:
(i) If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ terminates ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ employment for any reason
other than a Discharge for Cause, or if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ terminates
20
21
his employment with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ voluntarily for any reason other than disability
or retirement within the twenty-four (24) month period following a Change in
Control, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled to receive from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ the following
benefits:
(A) A lump sum severance payment (the "Severance
Payment"), in cash, equal to three (3) times the sum of (i) the higher of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ annual Base Compensation in effect immediately prior to the
occurrence of the event or circumstance upon which such termination of
employment is based or in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control,
and (ii) the average of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Bonuses during the three (3) calendar years
immediately preceding the year in which the date of termination occurs.
(B) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be entitled, during the period expiring
on the earlier of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ securing other employment or twenty-four (24)
months from the date of such termination of employment (or such longer period
as required by law), to continued coverage under the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ sponsored medical
benefits program in existence on such date of termination or, if such continued
coverage is barred, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide equivalent medical benefit coverage
through the purchase of insurance or otherwise.
(C) For purposes of determining ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ benefits under
the Supplemental Plan, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall receive credit toward his Years of Service
under the Supplemental Plan for the two (2) year period following such
termination of employment. In addition, with respect to the two (2) year
period following such termination of employment, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Base Compensation
shall be deemed to be increased by the annual economic range adjustment for
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'
21
22
salaried employees announced in October of each year (or, if there is no such
announced economic range adjustment in a given year, by an assumed five percent
(5%) increase for that year) in order to calculate his highest earnings during
five (5) consecutive years out of the last ten (10) years prior to retirement
under the Supplemental Plan.
(D) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be reimbursed for up to $20,000 for
outplacement fees if he chooses to seek other employment following his
discharge by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be obligated to seek other employment
in order to mitigate his damages resulting from his discharge.
(E) In addition to all of the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be
entitled to receive the payments required of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under his then-existing
deferred compensation agreement(s) with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance with the terms
of such agreement(s), and the retirement benefit provided for in Section 6(d)
of this Agreement.
The benefits provided in this Section 8(e) shall be in lieu of
any benefits provided under Section 8(d) of this Agreement.
(ii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received
by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with a Change in Control or the termination of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any
other plan, arrangement or agreement with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, any person whose actions
result in a Change in Control or any person affiliated with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or such
person) (all such payments and benefits, including the Severance Payment, being
hereinafter called "Total Payments") would be subject (in whole or
22
23
part), to an excise tax pursuant to Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (such tax hereinafter referred to
as the "Excise Tax"), then the Severance Payment shall be reduced to the extent
necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to Excise Tax
(after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by
reason of Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement or
agreement) if (A) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced, (and
after deduction of the net amount of federal, state and local income tax on
such Total Payments), is greater than (B) the excess of (i) the net amount of
such Total Payments, without reduction (but after deduction of the net amount
of federal, state and local income tax on such Total Payments), over (ii) the
amount of Excise Tax to which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ would be subject in respect of such Total
Payments. For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the
Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total
Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have effectively
waived in writing prior to the date of this termination of employment shall be
taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into
account which in the opinion of tax counsel selected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ does not
constitute a "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code, (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in
calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payment shall be taken
into account which constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually
rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess
23
24
of the base amount as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code allowable to
such reasonable compensation, and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or
any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be
determined by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3)
and (4) of the Code. Prior to the fifth day following the date of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇
termination of employment, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with its calculation
of the amounts referred to in this Section and such supporting materials as are
reasonably necessary for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to evaluate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' calculations. If
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ objects to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' calculations, he shall notify ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of his
objections prior to the initial payment date set forth in Section 8(e)(vi)
hereof, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ such portion of the Severance Payment
(up to one hundred percent (100%) thereof) as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ determines is necessary
to result in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ receiving the greater of clauses (A) and (B) of this
Section.
(iii) Upon the occurrence of an Escrow Funding Event,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay into an escrow account at the Escrow Agent an amount equal
to three (3) times the sum of (i) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Base Compensation in effect
immediately prior to the Escrow Funding Event and (ii) the average of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇
Bonuses during the three (3) calendar years immediately preceding the year in
which the Escrow Funding Event occurs. Subsequent to the delivery to the
Escrow Agent of the Escrow Amount, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall, in the event that either
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Base Compensation is increased (or decreased) or he receives a Bonus
that affects the amount described in Section 8(e)(i)(A), unless the Escrow
Amount shall theretofore have been
24
25
released pursuant to this subsection, recalculate the Escrow Amount as of the
date such change in Base Compensation or receipt of Bonus occurs, treating the
Escrow Funding Event as having occurred on such date. If the amount so
calculated exceeds the fair market value of the Escrow Amount, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall
promptly (and in no event later than seven (7) days from such date) pay to the
Escrow Agent an amount in cash (or marketable securities or any combination
thereof) equal to such excess. If the Escrow Amount so calculated is less than
the fair market value of the Escrow Amount then held in the escrow account, the
Escrow Agent, upon receipt of a written request from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, shall distribute
to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ such difference in cash; provided, however, that this sentence
shall not apply after the occurrence of a Change in Control.
(iv) Unless the parties otherwise agree, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may
withdraw the Escrow Amount when and only when two (2) years have expired from
the date of deposit and no proper demand pursuant to Section 8(e)(vi) below has
been made during the time, or when the conditions requiring the deposit have
ceased to exist for a period of ninety (90) days without a demand right having
been created, or when ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ right to a payment under this Section 8(e) has
been forfeited, whichever occurs first. If, before the expiration of such
period or forfeiture, there shall occur another Escrow Funding Event, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
will not be required to make an additional deposit, but the two (2) year period
shall then be measured from the date of the last such event. Notwithstanding a
deposit with the Escrow Agent pursuant to subsection (iii) of this Section
8(e), ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall continue to be entitled to receive all of the benefits from
25
26
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under this Agreement until a termination of employment shall occur.
(v) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay the charges of the Escrow Agent
for its services under the Escrow Agreement, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be entitled to
any interest or other income arising from the date of the deposit of the Escrow
Amount until all payments have been made under the Escrow Agreement to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
All interest or other income arising from the Escrow Amount deposited with the
Escrow Agent shall be paid monthly to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
(vi) If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ terminates ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ employment for any
reason but a Discharge for Cause, or if ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ terminates his employment with
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ voluntarily for any reason other than disability or retirement within
the twenty-four (24) month period following the date of a Change in Control,
the Escrow Agent, upon written demand made on or after the tenth (10th) day
following such termination of employment, shall pay the Escrow Amount in
accordance with this Section and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall no longer be subject to the
restrictive provisions of Section 9 below, except for Section 9(e). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
shall notify the Escrow Agent prior to the tenth (10th) day following his
termination of employment as to whether he has accepted the determination of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of the amount of the Severance Payments pursuant to Section 8(e)
(iii). If he has accepted such determination, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide the
Escrow Agent with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' written determination as set forth in Section 8(e)
(iii) and the Escrow Agent shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ all or a portion of the Escrow
Amount as provided in such determination, and any remaining amount shall be
paid to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. If ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ does
26
27
not accept ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' determination, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall provide to the Escrow Agent
his determination of the Severance Payment, and the Escrow Agent shall pay to
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ all or a portion of the Escrow Amount as provided in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇
determination and any remaining amount shall be paid to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
(vii) In the event that, following the creation of a demand
right pursuant to Section 8(e)(vi) above, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ incurs any costs or expenses,
including attorneys' fees, in the enforcement of rights under this Section 8(e)
or under any plan for the benefit of employees of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, including without
limitation the stock option plan, pension plans, payroll-based stock ownership
plan, tax deferred savings and protection plan, bonus arrangements,
supplemental pension plan, deferred compensation agreements, incentive
compensation plans, and life insurance and compensation program, then, unless
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the consolidated, surviving or transferee entity in the event of a
consolidation, merger or sale of assets, is wholly successful in defending
against the enforcement of such rights, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, or such consolidated,
surviving or transferee entity, shall promptly pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ all such costs
and expenses.
9. NON-COMPETITION; CONFIDENTIALITY.
---------------------------------
(a) In order to protect ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, it is understood that a covenant
not to compete is a necessary and appropriate adjunct to the other provisions
of this Agreement. Therefore, should ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any time determine prior to
the expiration of this Agreement that he does not desire to remain an employee
of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and shall terminate his employment for any reason other than the
grounds
27
28
specified in Sections 8(d) and 8(e) above, or should he be Discharged For Cause
by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall remain subject to the restrictive provisions
hereinafter set forth. In addition, these restrictive provisions shall remain
in full force and effect at any other time during which payments are required
to be made by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ pursuant to the retirement (Section 6), severance
(Section 8, except for Section 8(e)(vi)) or disability (Section 7) provisions
of this Agreement. These restrictive provisions are as follows:
(b) For a period of two (2) years from and after ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇
employment with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have terminated and after he shall have ceased
receiving retirement, severance or disability benefits under this Agreement,
whichever shall last occur, he shall not, directly or indirectly, compete with
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its related or affiliated companies. For purposes of this
Agreement, competition with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its related or affiliated
companies shall include the manufacture, distribution, and sale of business
forms and computer hardware and software and the furnishing of EDP services
which are similar in nature or function to the products and/or services then
being furnished by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for sale in the same vertical markets in which
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' products and/or services are then being marketed at the time of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ termination of employment or upon the cessation of any retirement,
severance or disability benefits under this Agreement.
(c) From and after the execution of this Agreement and for a
period of two (2) years after termination of his employment with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and
after he shall have ceased receiving retirement,
28
29
severance or disability benefits under this Agreement, whichever shall last
occur, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not, directly or indirectly, by direct participation, by
purchase of stocks or bonds or other evidences of indebtedness, by loaning of
money, by guarantee of loans of others, by gift to establish or assist others,
or in any other manner or fashion, engage in any such restricted activity in
competition with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its related or affiliated companies, nor
shall he assist any present employees of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any other person similarly
to engage in such competing business for the full two-year prohibition period
set forth in this Agreement.
(d) The restrictive provisions of this Section 9, however, are in
no way intended to prohibit ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ from acquiring in open market transactions
investments in equity stock or evidences of indebtedness of a corporation if
the said stock or if the said evidence of indebtedness is traded on a national
or regional securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market and the
investment therein represents no more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding
securities of the issue being acquired. Moreover, it is not the intention of
this Section 9 to limit in any way ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ ability to invest in businesses
not competitive with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
(e) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall keep secret and inviolate all knowledge or
information of a confidential nature (which is not then nor later, through no
breach of this Agreement, in the public domain), including all unpublished
matters related to, without limitation thereof, the business, properties,
accounts, books and records, research and development information, processes,
procedures,
29
30
products, know-how, trade secrets, memoranda, devices, suppliers, and customers
of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ which he may now know or hereafter come to know as a result of his
affiliation in business with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
(f) All copyrights, improvements, discoveries and inventions and
all claims, interest and rights thereto relating to any part of the business of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ conceived, developed or made by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, either alone or with others,
during the period of his employment, and whether conceived, developed or made
during his regular working hours or at any other time during such period, shall
be and are the sole property of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby assigns to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
all right, title and interest in and to such copyrights, improvements,
discoveries and inventions. Further, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will, at any time in the future
upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' request, execute specific assignments of any said copyrights,
improvements, discoveries and inventions as well as execute all documents and
perform all lawful acts which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ deems necessary or advisable to vest
full ownership thereof in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, to register same in the name of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or
its designee or otherwise to provide legal protection for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' ownership
interests therein.
(g) This Agreement shall be without geographical limitation in
continental North America and, in addition, in any other areas of the world in
which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or any of its related or affiliated companies shall be doing
business at the time of the proposed competing entry into business by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
it being agreed that the contacts of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the potential scope of
operation of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is without any limitation within the area of prohibition.
Any violation of this covenant may be enforced by specific
30
31
performance in any court of competent jurisdiction within the area of
limitation imposed by this provision. If any court of competent jurisdiction
shall determine that either the period or the territory covered by this
provision against competition in unreasonable, said provision shall not be
determined to be null, void, and of no effect but shall be reformed by said
court to impose a reasonable period or a reasonable geographical limitation, as
the case may be.
10. RESOLUTIONS OF DISPUTES; ARBITRATION.
-------------------------------------
(a) Except for the breach or threatened breach by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of the
noncompetition provisions of this Agreement which may be enforced by
appropriate injunctive relief at the option of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, any dispute or
controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, but not
limited to, whether ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has been Discharged for Cause, shall be submitted
to and settled by arbitration in Dayton, Ohio in accordance with the rules then
pertaining of the American Arbitration Association.
(b) Should ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ disagree that his determination was due to a
Discharge for Cause, the question shall, within thirty (30) days after the
termination, be submitted to arbitration by three (3) arbitrators, one of whom
shall be selected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, another of whom shall be selected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
and the third of whom shall be selected by the two arbitrators so appointed.
The decision of these arbitrators on the question shall be final and conclusive
upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and his wife or widow, personal representatives,
designated beneficiaries and heirs, and shall be enforceable in any court
having competent jurisdiction thereof. A
31
32
discharge which is eventually determined under arbitration to have been a
Discharge for Cause, or no arbitration having been requested and the discharge
being one which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ had determined was for a Discharge for Cause, shall
extinguish any and all liability of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ under this Agreement from and
after the date of termination.
(c) The arbitrators for all other disputes or controversies under
this Agreement shall be selected as set forth above and the parties shall
select the arbitrators within thirty (30) days after demand from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the other to settle matters by arbitration. As stated above, the
decision of the arbitrators shall be final and conclusive.
11. NONASSIGNABLE RIGHTS.
---------------------
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, his wife, or his widow after his death, or his personal
representatives, designated beneficiaries and heirs, shall not have the right
to anticipate or commute, or to sell, assign, transfer, or otherwise alienate
or convey the right to receive any payments hereunder, whether by his, her or
their voluntary or involuntary act, or by operation of law and, in particular,
that any payments due hereunder shall not be subject to attachment or
garnishment or any other legal proceedings by any creditor, or be in any way
responsible for the debts or liabilities of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his wife or his widow
after his death or his personal representatives, designated beneficiaries and
heirs. Should ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his wife or his widow after his death or his personal
representatives, designated beneficiaries and heirs, voluntarily attempt to
breach this Section of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'
32
33
liability to make payments hereunder from and after the date of said attempt
shall be extinguished; and should any attempt be made to reach the payments by
other than ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his wife or his widow after his death or his personal
representatives, designated beneficiaries and heirs, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall make each
payment as it becomes due to such person or persons for the sole benefit of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his wife or his widow or his personal representatives, designated
beneficiaries and heirs, as the case may be, as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may ▇▇▇▇ expedient.
12. UNFUNDED AGREEMENT.
-------------------
(a) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' obligation under this Agreement shall be unfunded,
but ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserves the right to provide for its liability under this
Agreement in any manner it deems advisable, including the purchasing of such
assets (including an insurance policy or policies on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ life) as it may
deem necessary or proper; provided, however, that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ insurability or
non-insurability shall in no way affect ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' obligations pursuant to this
Agreement. Any asset so purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be the sole property of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and shall not be deemed to provide funding of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' obligations
under this Agreement.
(b) In the event ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ determines to purchase any insurance
policy or policies on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ life, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to submit to such
examination and to supply information as may be required by the insurer.
(c) Any policy so purchased by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be issued so that
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is the sole, full, and complete owner of the policy or policies, with
the right and power to exercise any and all
33
34
privileges and options thereof or available under the rules of the issuing
insurer without the consent of any other persons.
(d) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, his wife, or his widow after his death, or his designated
beneficiaries, personal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns shall
have no claim or rights with respect to, and shall have no property or
equitable interests whatsoever in, any specific funds or assets of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and
shall have only the status of a general creditor with respect to
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereunder.
13. FACILITY OF PAYMENT.
--------------------
In the event of a physical or mental illness or disability of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
or of his widow after his death or of his designated beneficiaries at a time
when he or she (or they) is (are) entitled to payments hereunder, such payments
as may be due shall be paid to such person or persons for the benefit of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or his widow or his designated beneficiaries, as the case may be, as
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or, if applicable, the Escrow Agent may deem proper. In the event of
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ death after he has made demand pursuant to Section 8(e)(v) above, the
Escrow Agent shall pay such amounts as thereafter are due to such beneficiary
or beneficiaries as ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have designated in writing, or failing such
writing, to his estate. No liability shall accrue to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or Escrow Agent
for any alleged payment to an improper person or representative if so made
after such reasonable investigation and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Escrow Agent shall have no
responsibility to see to the proper application of such payments.
34
35
14. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be mailed, postage prepaid, by
registered or certified mail or personally delivered, if to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, addressed

▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
