election without &ldquo;cause&rdquo; (as defined in the agreement), which requires 30 days advanced notice, or by Mr. Klemp for
&ldquo;good reason&rdquo; (as defined in the agreement), Mr. Klemp shall be entitled to receive severance payments equal to the
greater of 12 months of Mr. Klemp&rsquo;s base salary or the base salary Mr. Klemp would have received had he remained employed
through the third anniversary of the date of the agreement. Mr. Klemp has agreed not to compete with the Company for 12 months

as set forth above.</P>
