request of the Company shall, submit to the Company a certification
in reasonable detail by a physician selected by the Company to whom
the Executive or the Executive’s guardian has no reasonable
objection as to whether the Executive is so disabled or how long
such disability is expected to continue, and such certification
shall for the purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the

Reason;

(b) continued
participation in the Company’s medical, dental, vision and
basic life insurance benefit plans (the “Benefit

respective plans and applicable law, for a period of one year
following the termination date; provided that, to the extent that
the Benefit Plans do not permit such continuation of the
Executive’s participation following his termination or any
such plan is terminated, the Company shall pay the Executive an
amount which is sufficient for him to purchase equivalent benefits,
such amount to be paid quarterly in advance; provided further,
however, that to the extent the Executive becomes eligible to
receive medical, dental, vision and/or basic life insurance
benefits under a plan provided by another employer, the
Executive’s entitlement to participate in the Benefit Plans
or to receive such alternate payments shall cease as of the date

Executive shall be deemed to have been met in full;
(ii) the
vesting schedule applicable to any stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock units or other equity awards
issued under any Stock Plan and held by Executive shall be amended
automatically so that each such equity award shall thereupon vest
to the extent that such equity award, in the absence of such
amendment, would have been vested from and after the date which is
two years after the Change in Control; provided that if any such
stock option, stock appreciation right, restricted stock unit or
other equity award is not assumed, or an award or payment of
equivalent value is not substituted therefor, by any acquirer of or
successor to the Company, then such stock option, stock
appreciation right, restricted stock unit or other equity award
shall thereupon become vested and exercisable in full;
(iii) the vesting
schedule applicable to any shares of restricted stock issued under
any Stock Plan and held by Executive shall be amended automatically
so that the restrictions shall thereupon lapse with respect to all
shares that, in the absence of such amendment, would not have been
restricted shares from and after the date which is two years after
the Change in Control; and
(iv) each
outstanding equity award held by the Executive shall be amended to
provide that, notwithstanding any provision of any Stock Plan, no
outstanding share of restricted stock, stock option, stock
appreciation right, restricted stock unit or other equity award

Executive’s written consent (other than (A) any unvested
portion thereof that is
terminated or forfeited upon termination of the
Executive’s employment as provided in any agreement or

Executive shall be entitled to payment of a pro-rata portion of any
annual cash incentive award for which the Executive is eligible for
the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs, based on the
Executive’s target cash bonus for such year and the
percentage of the year completed through the date of the Change in
Control, for the purposes of which any performance criteria
applicable to such award shall be deemed to have been met in full,
which payment shall be made in one lump sum within thirty (30) days
of the date of the Change in Control; and
