vote in the election of directors of the Company; or (d) the Company is
dissolved or liquidated; provided
however,
that a
change in control under clause (a), (b), (c), or (d) shall not be deemed to

Change in Control as a result of an acquisition of securities of the Company
by
an employee benefit plan maintained by the Company for its employees.

In
the
event the Executive’s employment under this Agreement is terminated by the
Company other than for Cause, by the Executive for Good Reason, or caused by

Salary earned but not paid through the date of termination, (ii) any vacation
time earned but not used through the date of termination, (iii) any business
expenses incurred by the Executive but unreimbursed on the date of termination,
provided that such expenses and required substantiation and documentation are
submitted within sixty (60) days of termination and that such expenses are
reimbursable under Company policy; (iv) continued payment of Base Salary for
the
period of time that the Executive would have been entitled to receive such
payments under Section 5(d) below if his employment had been terminated by
the
Company other than for Cause on the date of his death; and (v) any bonus owed
to
the Executive. The Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive
hereunder.
(b) Disability.
(i) The
Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder,
upon notice to the Executive, in the event that the Executive becomes disabled
during his employment hereunder through any illness, injury, accident or
condition of either a physical or psychological nature and, as a result, is
unable to perform substantially all of his duties and responsibilities
hereunder, for one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days during any calendar
year. In the event of such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive
(i) the Base Salary earned but not paid through the date of termination, (ii)
any vacation time earned but not used through the date of termination, and
(iii)
any business expenses incurred by the Executive but unreimbursed on the date

the
Company for Cause.
The
Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause at any time
upon notice to the Executive setting forth in reasonable detail the nature
of
such Cause. The following, as determined by the Board in its reasonable
judgment, shall constitute Cause for termination:
(i) The
Executive’s conviction of a felony or conviction of any other crime involving
moral turpitude (which specifically excludes all traffic
violations);

Executive’s theft, embezzlement, misappropriation of or intentional and

Executive’s gross dereliction of duties or gross negligence if not cured by the
Executive within twenty (20) business days following notice from the Company
specifying in detail the nature of such breach; or
(iv) The
Executive’s breach of any material term of this Agreement not cured by the
Executive within twenty (20) business days following notice from the Company
specifying in detail the nature of such breach.
Upon
the
giving of notice of termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for
Cause, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive, other
than
payment to the Executive of (i) the Base Salary earned but not paid through
the
date of termination, (ii) any vacation time earned but not used through the
date
of termination, and (iii) any business expenses incurred by the Executive but
unreimbursed on the date of termination, provided that such expenses and
required substantiation and documentation are submitted within sixty (60) days
of termination and that such expenses are reimbursable under Company
policy.
(d)
By
the
Company Other than for Cause.
The
Company may terminate the Executive’s
employment hereunder other than for Cause at any time upon notice to the
Executive. In the event of such termination, and provided that no benefits
are
payable to the Executive under a separate severance agreement or an executive
severance plan as a result of such termination, then for a period of twenty-four
(24) months less one month for each month after the effective date hereof
(but
in no case for less than twelve (12) months), the Company shall (i) continue
to
pay the Executive Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination,
and any bonus to which he would have been entitled during such period and
(ii)
continue to provide Executive with health insurance coverage at a level
equivalent to that provided to Executive by Company immediately prior to
the
termination date. Any obligation of the Company to the Executive hereunder
is
conditioned, however, upon the Executive’s signing a mutually acceptable release
of claims. Base Salary to which the Executive is entitled hereunder shall
be
payable in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company.
(e)
By
the
Executive for Good Reason.
The
Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason, upon notice

Executive:

Failure
of the Company to continue the Executive in the position of Executive
Chairman;
(ii) Material
diminution in the nature or scope of the Executive’s responsibilities, duties or
authority, a Change in Control, or a request by the Company, whether written,
verbal or implied, to engage in unlawful behavior, including but not limited
to
violating SEC or NASDAQ rules or regulations;
(iii) Material
failure of the Company to provide the Executive the compensation and benefits
in
accordance with the terms of Section 4, excluding an inadvertent failure which
is cured within ten (10) business days following notice from the Executive
specifying in detail the nature of such failure; or
-

-
(iv) Relocation
of Executive’s principal Company office to a location more than 50 miles from
Executive’s principal Company office on the effective date of this Agreement;
provided, however, that a relocation of Executive’s principal Company office to
the State of New Jersey shall not be deemed to be an event of Good Reason
hereunder.
In
the
event of termination in accordance with this Section 5(e), and provided that
no
benefits are payable to the Executive under a separate severance agreement
or an
executive severance plan as a result of such termination, then the Executive
will be entitled to the same pay he would have been entitled to receive had
the
Executive been terminated by the Company other than for Cause in accordance
with
Section 5(d) above; provided that the Executive satisfies all conditions to
such
entitlement, including without limitation the signing of an mutually agreeable
release.
(f) By
the
Executive Other than for Good Reason.
The
Executive may terminate his employment hereunder at any time upon thirty (30)
days’ notice to the Company. In the event of termination of the Executive
pursuant to this section 5(f), the Company shall have no further obligation

through the date of termination, and (iii) any business expenses incurred by
the
Executive but unreimbursed on the date of termination, provided that such
expenses and required substantiation and documentation are submitted within
sixty (60) days of termination and that such expenses are reimbursable under
Company policy. The Company may elect to waive the period of notice or any
portion thereof.
6. Effect
of Termination.
The
provisions of this Section 6 shall apply to termination due to the expiration
of
the term hereof, pursuant to Section 5 or otherwise.
(a) Payment
by the Company of any Base Salary, any Base Salary continuation, bonus and
benefits that may be due the Executive in each case under the applicable
termination provision of Section 5 shall constitute the entire obligation of
the
Company to the Executive. The Executive shall promptly give the Company notice
of all facts necessary for the Company to determine the amount and duration
of
its obligations in connection with any termination pursuant to Section 5(d)
or
5(e) hereof.
(b)
Provisions
of this Agreement shall survive any termination if so provided herein or if
necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of other surviving provisions,
including without limitation the obligations of the Executive under Sections
7,
8 and 9 hereof. The obligation of the Company to make payments to or on behalf
of the Executive under Section 5(d) or 5(e) hereof is expressly conditioned

If
any
part of this Section 7 shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be unreasonable in duration, geographic area, or scope, then the provisions

assign this Agreement to any person, partnership or corporation which acquires
all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of the
Company.
13. Waiver,
Amendment and Alteration.
The
waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall
