terminated by the Company for Cause, or (ii) Executive resigns from
his employment hereunder other than under circumstances covered by
Section 6 below, Executive shall not be eligible to receive any
compensation or benefits or to participate in any plans or programs
under Section 4 hereof with respect to the Period after the date of

plan or program, to the extent vested, in accordance with the terms
of such plan or program and except for benefits provided in
accordance with customary practices of the Company at Executive's
expense (e.g., hospitalization and medical insurance); provided,
however, that Executive's Stock Options shall be governed by the
provisions of Section 4(d) above.
(b) Date of Termination. The date of termination of
Executive's employment hereunder by the Company under this Section
5 shall be (i) immediately upon receipt by Executive of written

or (ii) immediately upon receipt by the Company of written notice
of Executive's resignation, except if such resignation is due to a
Substantial Breach.
6. Termination of Employment Other Than For Cause.
(a) Compensation and Benefits. If, prior to the
expiration of the Period, Executive's employment hereunder is
terminated by the Company without Cause or for any reason within
one year after a Change in Control, or if, prior to the expiration
of the Period, Executive resigns from his employment hereunder
following a Substantial Breach or for any reason within one year
after a Change in Control, or if, prior to the expiration of the
Period, Executive dies or becomes Permanently Disabled while
employed hereunder, notwithstanding such termination or
resignation, through the end of the Period:
<PAGE>

receive payments through the expiration of the Period under Section
4(a) above at the rate of his Base Salary as in effect on the date

immediately vest and remain exercisable through the option term of
each respective Stock Option as set forth in the respective Stock
Option grant letter;
(iv) Executive shall remain eligible to

(v) Executive shall be entitled to receive the
severance compensation described in Section 4(f).
(b) Date of Termination. The date of termination's of

Company pursuant to Section 1(p) hereunder. The date of termination
of Executive's employment in the event of his death shall be the
date of Executive's death or in the event Executive becomes
Permanently Disabled, 120 days after the date such disability
commenced.
(c) Reduction in Payments. The amount of any payments
of compensation and benefits to Executive under this Section 6
shall be reduced by the amount, if any, necessary to prevent any
part of such payments from being treated as an "excess parachute
payment" (as that term is defined for purposes of Section
280G(b)(1) of the Code and the related federal tax regulations);
provided, however, that such reduction shall apply only if the
reduction will result in payments to Executive under this Section
6 which have, after consideration of all applicable taxes, a
greater after-tax benefit to Executive than the amount of such
payments to Executive under this Section 6 computed without such
reduction. The determination of relative benefits shall be made by
the Company on the basis of information supplied by Executive.
<PAGE>
7. Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.
(a) Definition. For purposes of this Agreement
"Confidential Information" means any information or compilation of
information, not generally known, which is proprietary to the
Company and relates to the Company's existing or reasonably
foreseeable business. All information which the Company identifies
as being "confidential" or "trade secret" shall be presumed to be
Confidential Information. Confidential Information shall also
include any confidential information of a parent, subsidiary or
sister corporation of the Company and any information disclosed by
a third party under contract with the Company which contract
requires such disclosed information be kept confidential.
Confidential Information shall not include information that is in
or enters the public domain other than through a breach of
confidentiality owed to the Company.
(b) Nondisclosure. During the Period and at all
times thereafter, Executive shall hold in strictest of confidence
and will never disclose, furnish, transfer, communicate, make
assessable to any person or use in any way Confidential Information
for Executive's own or another's benefit or permit the same to be
used in competition with the Company, nor will Executive accept any
employment which would, by the nature of the position, inherently
involve the use or disclosure by Executive of Confidential
Information.
8. Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. In addition
to any other relief afforded by law, the Company shall have the
right to enforce the covenants contained in Section 7 hereof by
specific performance and by preliminary, temporary and permanent
injunctive relief, against Executive and any other person concerned
thereby, it being understood that damages, specific performance or
injunctive relief, shall be proper modes of relief and are not to
be considered as alternative remedies. If the Company is successful
in any action for specific performance or injunctive relief the
costs incurred by the Company related thereto, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, shall be paid by Executive.
9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes any and all
oral or written understanding between the parties hereto.
10. Headings of No Effect. The Section headings contained in
this Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and
shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of any of
the provisions of this Agreement.
11. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon,
and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto, any successor to
or assigns of the Company, and Executive's heirs and the personal
representative of Executive's estate.
12. Severability. If the final determination of a court of
competent jurisdiction declares, after the expiration of the time
within which judicial review (if permitted) of such determination
may be perfected, that any term or provision hereof is invalid or
unenforceable, (a) the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall
be unimpaired and (b) the invalid or unenforceable<PAGE>
term or provision shall be deemed replaced by a term or provision
that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing
the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.
13. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be modified,
amended or waived in any manner except by an instrument in writing
signed by both parties hereto. The waiver by either party hereto of
compliance with any provision of this Agreement by the other party
hereto shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other
provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such
party of a provision of this Agreement.
14. Renewal. The Company shall be under no obligation to
renew this Agreement.
15. Governing Law. All matters affecting this Agreement,
including the validity hereof, are to be governed by, interpreted
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
Jersey.
16. Notices. Any notice hereunder by either party hereto to
the other shall be given in writing by personal delivery or
certified mail, return receipt requested. If addressed to
Executive, the notice shall be delivered or mailed to Executive at
the address specified under Executive's signature hereto or such
other address which Executive has advised the Company to send
notice to, or if addressed to the Company, the notice shall be
delivered or mailed to the Company at its executive offices and to
the attention of each member of the Board of Directors of the
Company at their respective business addresses. A notice shall be
deemed given, if by personal delivery, on the date of such delivery
or, if by certified mail, on the date shown on the applicable
return receipt.
17. Consideration. The parties acknowledge that the
restrictions contained in Section 7 hereof are a reasonable and
necessary protection of the immediate interests of the Company and
any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury
to the Company and that the Company would not have entered into
this Employment Agreement without receiving the additional
consideration offered by Executive in binding himself to these
restrictions.
<PAGE>
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused the Agreement to be
signed by its officer pursuant to the authority of its Board, and
Executive has executed this Agreement, as of the day and year first
