The Executive will receive a signing bonus equal to $25,000 payable within 30 days~~ of ~~his commencement of employment~~redemption. ~~The Executive also shall be entitled to participate in each employee benefit program that the Company generally makes available to its senior executive employees.~~

In the event of a termination of employment by the Company without Cause (as defined in the Landsbaum Agreement) or by the Executive for Good Reason (as defined in the Landsbaum Agreement), the Executive will be entitled to receive, in each case depending on the date of termination of employment, salary continuation for 12 to 24 months and payments in an aggregate amount equal to 50% to 100% of his target bonus (payable over such periods). In the event of a termination of employment as a result of the Executive’s death, or by the Company as a result of the Executive’s disability, the Executive (or his estate, as applicable) shall generally be entitled to receive 60% of his base salary in the form of salary continuation for the remainder of the term of the Landsbaum Agreement or 24 months, whichever is longer, plus amounts equal to 50% of his target bonus on each of the next two bonus payment dates following termination of employment. If the Landsbaum Agreement is terminated as a result of the Executive’s death, by the Company for disability or without Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, and the date of termination is on or after January 1, 2008, then the Executive (or his estate, as applicable) shall also be entitled to receive a pro-rata portion of the corporate performance payment described in the paragraph above.2

In the event that any amounts payable under the Landsbaum Agreement or any other plan or agreement would constitute “excess parachute payments” that exceed the Executive’s “safe harbor” (as each term is defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) by more than $150,000, the Company will provide a gross-up payment to the Executive to compensate him fully for the imposition of excise taxes under Code Section 280G. If the amounts payable exceed the “safe harbor” limit, but not by more than $150,000, then the amounts payable to the Executive shall be reduced so that no payments are deemed to be “excess parachute payments.”

The Landsbaum Agreement provides for, among other restrictive covenants, a non-compete covenant that restricts the Executive from engaging in certain defined competitive activities and a non-solicitation covenant, in each case effective for periods, depending on the circumstances, of up to two years following the Executive’s termination of employment.

A copy of the Landsbaum Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Landsbaum Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Landsbaum Agreement.

Mr. Jenkins will cease to serve the Company as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer effective October 17, 2005 and will assist in the transition until December 31, 2005 or such earlier date as agreed between Mr. Jenkins and the Company. At such time, Mr. Jenkins’ employment pursuant to the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with the Company, dated May 9, 2003 (the “Jenkins Employment Agreement”), will end.
