7. Termination

(a) By Employer

(i) Termination for Cause. Employer may, for Cause (as defined below), terminate the Term at any time upon five (5) Business Days prior notice to Employee. In any event, as of the date of notice (the “Termination Date”), Employee will be relieved of all of his duties hereunder and Employee will not be entitled to the accrual or provision of any compensation or benefit after the Termination Date, but Employee will be entitled to the provision of all compensation and other benefits that will have accrued as of the Termination Date, including all vested Options, paid leave benefits, and reimbursement of incurred business expenses.

(ii) Termination Without Cause Employer may, in its sole discretion, without Cause, terminate the Term at any time by providing Employee with 30 days prior notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GTSI may, at its option provide up to 30 days’ salary and benefits in lieu of such 30 days’ notice of any portion thereof. Upon termination of the Term, which will be 30 days following notice, under this Section 7(a)(ii), Employer will be obligated to pay Employee a severance payment equal to six months of base salary in effect as of the Termination Date. The Severance Payment will be paid during the 6 months following the Termination Date and will be paid in 12 equal biweekly payments in accordance with Employer’s standard payroll schedule during such 6 months, provided that the amount payable during the first six months shall not exceed two times the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified retirement plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Termination Date occurs. Any portion of the Severance Payment scheduled but not payable during the first six months because of the limitation in the prior sentence shall be paid in a lump sum with the first payment due after the end of the six months. Employee will be entitled to the provision of all

compensation and other benefits that will have accrued as of the Termination Date, including all vested Options, paid leave benefits, and reimbursement of incurred business expenses. The option exercise period would be extended to the maximum period permitted under GTSI’s Stock Incentive Plan, without GTSI incurring any charge or costs. Additionally GTSI will include 6 months of COBRA cost reimbursement in the same cost sharing relationship (as reimbursement) as when you were an active employee at the company.

(iii) Definition of Cause. Termination by Employer of Employee’s employment for “Cause” means termination as a result of (1) deliberate and premeditated acts against the Employer’s best interests; or (2) acts or omissions involving unacceptable performance under standard business results for a company in GTSI’s market and industry, as reasonably determined by the Board, or (3) improper conduct (examples of which include, but are not limited to: failure or refusal to perform assigned duties or to follow Employer’s policies, as determined in the sole discretion of Employer; commission of sexual harassment or other employment practice liabilities; excessive absenteeism; unlawful use or possession of drugs or misuse of legal drugs or alcohol; misappropriation of an Employer asset or opportunity; the offer, payment, solicitation or acceptance of any bribe or kickback with respect to Employer’s business; the assertion, representation or certification of any false claim or statement to a customer of Employer; or indictment or conviction for any felony whatsoever or for any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude).

(b) Death or Disability. The Term will be terminated immediately and automatically upon Employee’s death or “Disability.” The term “Disability” will mean Employee’s inability to perform all of the essential functions of his position hereunder for a period of 26 consecutive weeks or for an aggregate of 150 Business Days during any 12-month period by reason of illness, accident or any other physical or mental incapacity, as may be permitted by applicable law. Employee’s capability to continue performance of Employee’s duties hereunder will be determined by a panel composed of two independent medical doctors appointed by the Board and one appointed by Employee or his designated representative. Upon termination of the Term under this Section 8(b), Employee will not be entitled to the accrual or provision of any compensation or benefit after the Termination Date, but Employee will be entitled to the provision of all compensation and other benefits that will have accrued as of the Termination Date, including all vested Options, paid leave benefits, and reimbursement of incurred business expenses.

(i) Employee may, in his sole discretion, without cause, terminate the Term at any time by providing Employer with 90 days written notice. If Employee exercises such termination right, Employer may, at its option, at any time after receiving such notice from Employee, relieve him of his duties and terminate the Term at any time prior to the expiration of said notice period. If the Term is terminated by Employee pursuant to this Section 7(c)(i), Employee will be entitled to the provision of all compensation and other benefits that will have accrued as of the Termination Date, including all vested Options, paid leave benefits, and reimbursement of incurred business expenses, but will not be entitled to any further accrual or provision of any other compensation or benefits after the Termination Date.

(ii) If, during the Term, a Change of Control (as defined below) occurs and, Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause, or without his consent, Employee is assigned duties that are a material diminution in his authority, duties or responsibilities and which assignment is not cured by Employer with 30 days following notice by Employee (“Good Reason”), or events which constitutes a material breach of the Agreement leading to Employee’s resignation for Good Reason are effected in anticipation of a Change of Control, including but not limited to an attempt to avoid the Company or its successor’s obligations under this Agreement, Employee may, in his sole discretion, terminate the Term upon five (5) days’ notice to Employer.

If Employee exercises such termination right, Employer may, at its Option, at any time after receiving such notice from Employee, relieve him of his duties hereunder and terminate the Term at any time prior to the expiration of said notice period. If this Agreement is terminated by Employee pursuant to this Section 7(c)(ii), Employee will receive, beginning on the Termination Date, an amount equal to the twelve months of total target compensation (12 months of TTC) provided that the amount payable during the first six months shall not exceed two times the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified retirement plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Termination Date occurs. Any portion of these amounts scheduled but not payable during the first six months because of the limitation in the prior sentence shall be paid in a lump sum with the first payment due after the end of the six months. These amounts will be payable in the same times as provided in Section 7(a)(ii), and Employee will be entitled to the provision of all compensation and other benefits that will have accrued as of the Termination Date, including all vested Options, paid leave benefits, and reimbursement of incurred business expenses. Further, any unvested options or any other stock award (whether restricted stock or other awards) in Company stock previously issued to Employee will have their vesting accelerated in full so as to become one hundred percent (100%) vested and immediately exercisable in full as of the date of such termination. Company’s obligation to provide the foregoing will be subject to a reasonable release and waiver under the same or similar terms that have been or will be required of other executive officers.

8. Non-Waiver. It is understood and agreed that one party’s failure at any time to require the performance by the other party of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions hereof will in no way affect the first party’s right thereafter to enforce the same, nor will the waiver by either party of the breach of any term, provision, covenant or condition hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach.
