P R E. A M B L E The Company is aware that, in order to induce highly competent persons to serve the Company as directors or in other capacities, the Company must provide such persons with adequate protection through insurance and indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the Company. The difficulty of obtaining adequate directors and officers liability insurance in the current market has increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons. The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that (i) it is essential to the best interests of the Company's shareholders that the Company act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future, and that (ii) it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified. The Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve, and take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified;

P R E. A M B L E : The Company, on behalf of itself and its shareholders, wishes to attract and retain well-qualified executives and key personnel and to assure itself of the continuity of its management. The Executive currently holds the position of Chief Financial Officer, and is a member of the Company's Management Executive Committee. The Company recognizes that the Executive is a valuable resource of the Company and the Company desires to be assured of the continued services of the Executive. The Company is concerned that in the event of a possible or threatened change in control of the Company, uncertainties necessarily arise and the Executive may have concerns about the continuation of his employment status and responsibilities and may be approached by others offering competing employment opportunities, and the Company therefore desires to provide the Executive assurance as to the continuation of his employment status and responsibilities in such event. The Company further desires to assure that, if a possible or threatened change in control should arise and the Executive should be involved in deliberations or negotiations in connection therewith, the Executive would be in a secure position to consider and participate in such transaction as objectively as possible in the best interests of the Company and, to this end, desires to protect the Executive from any direct or implied threat to his financial well being. The Executive is willing to continue to serve as such but desires assurance that in the event of such a change in control he will continue to have the employment status and responsibilities he could reasonably expect absent such event and in the event of a change in control he will have fair and reasonable severance protection on the basis of his service to the Company to that time. ACCORDINGLY, it is hereby agreed by and between the parties as follows:
