For purposes of this Agreement, "Change in Control" shall mean the happening of any of the following events:

(i) An acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13 (d) (3) or 14 (d) (2) of the Exchange Act) (an "Entity") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 30% or more of either (A) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company Common Stock") or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); excluding, however, the following: (1) any acquisition directly from the Company, other than an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted was itself acquired directly from the Company, (2) any acquisition by the Company, (3) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (4) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (ii) of this Section;

(ii) The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a merger, reorganization or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (each, a "Corporate Transaction") or, if consummation of such Corporate Transaction is subject, at the time of such approval by stockholders, to the consent of any government or governmental agency, the obtaining of such consent (either explicitly or implicitly by consummation); excluding however, such a Corporate Transaction pursuant to which (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who are the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock, and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction (including, without limitation, a corporation or other Person which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries (a "Parent Company")) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Entity (other than the Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company, such corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction or, if reference was made to equity ownership of any Parent Company for purposes of determining whether clause (A) above is satisfied in connection with the applicable Corporate Transaction, such Parent Company) will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of, respectively, the outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors unless such ownership resulted solely from ownership of securities of the Company prior to the Corporate Transaction, and (C) individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board will immediately after the consummation of the Corporate Transaction constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction (or, if reference was made to equity ownership of any Parent Company for purposes of determining whether clause (A) above is satisfied in connection with the applicable Corporate Transaction, of the Parent Company); or

(iii) The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

(i) Executive’s conviction (including a plea of guilty or nolo contendere) of a crime involving theft, fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude;

(ii) violation by Executive of the Company’s Code of Conduct or other material policies;

(iii) gross omission or gross dereliction of any statutory, common law or other duty of loyalty to the Company or any of its affiliates; or

(iv) repeated failure to carry out the duties of Executive’s position despite specific instructions to do so.

For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall mean any one of the following events which occurs without Executive’s written consent: (i) any material diminution in Executive’s title, authority or responsibility; (ii) any material reduction in Executive’s then current total compensation from that compensation paid by the Company in the prior fiscal year; or (iii) a change of more than fifty (50) miles Executive's permanent workplace without Executive's consent.

10.Parachute Payments. If any cash compensation payment, employee benefits or acceleration of vesting of stock options or other stock awards Executive would receive in connection with a Change in Control ("Payment") would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax"), then such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order unless Executive elects in writing a different order: reduction of cash payments; reduction of employee benefits; and cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards. In the event that acceleration of vesting of stock award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of Executive’s stock awards unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation. The accounting firm engaged by the

Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. The accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and Executive within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a Payment arises (if requested at that time by the Company or Executive) or at such other time as requested by the Company or Executive. If the accounting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Company and Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determination of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive.

11.Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon termination of Executive’s employment, unless Executive shall have executed and provided the Company with an effective release in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company by which Executive releases the Company from any and all claims of any kind, Executive shall not receive any severance payments or benefits provided under this Agreement.

12.Confidentiality. Executive agrees that information not generally known to the public to which he will be exposed as a result of his employment by the Company is confidential information that belongs to the Company. This includes information developed by Executive, alone or with others, or entrusted to the Company by its customers or others. The Company’s confidential information includes, without limitation, information relating to the Company’s trade secrets, research and development, inventions, know-how, software, procedures, accounting, marketing, sales, creative and marketing strategies, employee salaries and compensation, and the identities of customers and active prospects to the extent not publicly disclosed (collectively, "Confidential Information"). Executive will hold the Company’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and not disclose or use it during the No Disclosure Term (as defined below), except as authorized by the Company and for the Company’s benefit.

For purposes of this Agreement, “No Disclosure Term” shall mean during the time period Executive is employed by the Company and for a period of two (2) years after Executive’s employment is terminated.

Executive further acknowledges and agrees that in order to enable the Company to perform services for its customers or clients, such customers or clients may furnish to the Company certain Confidential Information, that the goodwill afforded to the Company depends upon the Company and its employees preserving the confidentiality of such information, and that such information shall be treated as Confidential Information of the Company for all purposes under this Agreement subject to the No Disclosure Term.

Executive agrees that if Executive breaches this Section 11: (i) the Company would suffer irreparable harm; (ii) it would be difficult to determine damages, and money damages alone would be an inadequate remedy for the injuries suffered by the Company, and (iii) if the Company seeks injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement, Executive will waive and will not (a) assert any defense that the Company has an adequate remedy at law with respect to the breach, (b) require that the Company submit proof of the economic value of any Trade Secret or Confidential Information, or (c) require the Company to post a bond or any other security.

13.No Restrictions. Executive represents to the Company that he has not executed or is not bound by any non-competition covenant or non-solicitation covenant or any other undertaking similar to either of the foregoing that would prevent him from performing the duties and responsibilities of the position set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement.

14.General Provisions. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive, the Company and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, except that Executive may not assign any of his duties hereunder and Executive may not assign any of his rights hereunder without the written consent of the Company, which shall not be withheld unreasonably.

This Agreement, together with the Exhibits, constitutes the complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between the Parties with regard to the subject matter hereof. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation, written or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and it supersedes any other such promises or representations.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the Parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. If any provision in this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions and any partially enforceable provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Executive agrees that any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in Georgia. Executive consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and/or federal courts located in Georgia. Executive waives (i) any objection to jurisdiction or venue, or (ii) any defense claiming lack of jurisdiction or improper venue, in any action brought in such courts.

A failure of Executive or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right Executive or the Company may have hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.
