Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

1. Matters relating to the 2002 Incentive Plan

On April 11, 2005, the Compensation and Human Resource Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) of Computer Associates International, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the termination of the current long-term incentive program (the “Former LTIP”) and the remaining performance periods thereunder pursuant to its discretion under the Company’s 2002 Incentive Plan (as amended and restated effective as of March 31, 2004) (the “2002 Plan”). Under the Company’s Former LTIP, the award of certain stock-based compensation was based upon the Company’s achievement of specified performance targets using relative total shareholder return as compared to either (i) a software and services industry index of 27 companies or (ii) a system software industry index of 7 companies. The index used to determine each executive’s performance was based upon the applicable performance period. Awards under the Former LTIP were issued as: (i) fair market value stock options, (ii) premium priced stock options and (iii) restricted stock, generally in approximately equal amounts. Three remaining performance periods (April 1, 2003 – March 31, 2006, April 1, 2004 – March 31, 2006 and April 1, 2004 – March 31, 2007) under the Former LTIP were terminated.

The Committee approved the implementation of a new long-term incentive program (the “New LTIP”) which the Committee believes will better serve the Company’s strategic objectives. The New LTIP will use a combination of stock options and other performance based awards, such as performance shares. The specific performance targets that will be used for the performance cycle beginning April 1, 2005 under the New LTIP have not yet been established.

2. Employment Agreement Matters

In connection with the adoption of the New LTIP on April 11, 2005, the Company entered into agreements with certain of its executives whose compensation under their respective employment agreement with the Company is based in part on the Former LTIP (the “Executive Contract Amendments”). The executives are John A. Swainson (President and Chief Executive Officer), Jeff Clarke (Chief Operating Officer), Robert W. Davis (Chief Financial Officer) and Michael J. Christenson (Executive Vice President, Strategy and Business Development). In each case, the executive: (1) waived any and all rights to any payment under the Former LTIP for any performance period ending after March 31, 2005 and (2) agreed that all references in his employment agreement to the Former LTIP are deemed references to the New LTIP, or any successor program that the Company may adopt from time to time (and, where applicable, that any reference to performance periods ending after April 1, 2005, including any established targets for such periods, are changed to performance periods beginning April 1, 2005). In addition, Mr. Swainson’s employment agreement with the Company was amended to eliminate the limit on the maximum award level under the Company’s long-term incentive program. Mr. Swainson is being paid the minimum guaranteed bonus of $333,334 for the fiscal year 2005 pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement.

 


 

The foregoing descriptions of the Executive Contract Amendments are qualified in their entirety by reference to such agreements (including schedules and exhibits thereto) copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 hereto and are incorporated by reference herein.

3. Other Executive Compensation Matters

On April 11, 2005, the Company made grants under the 2002 Plan, including the Former LTIP, for the period ending March 31, 2005 to the following 11 executive officers of the Company: Russell M. Artzt (Executive Vice President, Products), Mark J. Barrenechea (Executive Vice President, Technology Strategy), Jeff Clarke (Chief Operating Officer), Gregory W. Corgan (Executive Vice President, World Wide Direct Sales), Kenneth Cron (Former Interim CEO), Yogesh K. Gupta (Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer), Kenneth V. Handal (Executive Vice President and General Counsel), Una O’Neill (Senior Vice President), Gary Quinn (Executive Vice President), Douglas Robinson (Corporate Controller) and Mary Stravinskas (Senior Vice President and Treasurer). The aggregate awards, by type of award, were: (i) 234,117 shares of restricted stock; (ii) 558,916 fair market value stock options and (iii) 234,117 premium priced stock options. These awards reflect a combination of awards under the Former LTIP and discretionary option awards made pursuant to the 2002 Plan. Grants made in respect of fiscal year 2005 under the 2002 Plan were made pursuant to the forms of award agreements either previously filed as exhibits to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or filed herewith. Mr. Cron’s awards vest immediately and are exercisable for five years following Mr. Cron’s date of termination of employment with the Company. Mr. Cron will no longer be an employee of the Company by the end of April, 2005.

The foregoing description of the grants made to the above-referenced executives are qualified in their entirety by reference to the applicable form of award agreement previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or filed (including schedules and exhibits thereto) as Exhibits 10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

4. Other Fee Matters

Under the Company’s 2003 Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Plan”), each non-employee director receives an annual fee (currently $150,000) that is paid in the form of deferred stock units, except that up to 50% of such fee may be paid in cash, at the director’s election.

Lewis S. Ranieri was elected non-executive Chairman of the Board of the Company in April 2004. Since that time, except as provided below, he has not received any additional director fees for his service as non-executive Chairman, although he has continued to receive the annual fee under the Plan. In the opinion of the Board of Directors, Mr. Ranieri has rendered extraordinary service to the Company as non-executive Chairman during the past year and has devoted substantially more time to the Company’s affairs than was anticipated at the time of his election, including guiding the Company through the negotiations to resolve its government investigations and building a new senior

 


 

management team. In addition, the Board recognized that Mr. Ranieri has business and personal activities outside the Company and that his service to the Company substantially limited his options for travel this past year. Making Company aircraft available to Mr. Ranieri has enabled him to meet his other obligations without diminishing his efforts on behalf of the Company. In view of these considerations, the Board (with Mr. Ranieri abstaining), on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee, determined on April 12, 2005 that Mr. Ranieri should receive additional director fees for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, which have been paid in the form of making Company aircraft available to him for use on non-Company business and personal matters during that fiscal year.

These additional fees totaled approximately $160,000, which represents the Company’s incremental cost of Mr. Ranieri’s use of the aircraft (plus first-class airfare for family members who accompanied him on certain flights) during fiscal year 2005. As a result, and excluding the fourth quarter Plan fee described below, his total director fees for fiscal year 2005 were $272,500. In light of this increase, Mr. Ranieri has informed the Board that he does not intend to accept any director fees for his service on the Board during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005 (including the quarterly fee of $37,500 payable under the Plan) or during the current fiscal year (including the annual Plan fee).

As disclosed in the Company’s proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2004, on the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee, the Company made contributions to several charities in Mr. Ranieri’s honor.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

On April 11, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company elected Ron Zambonini as a member of the Board. Mr. Zambonini will serve as a member of the Special Litigation Committee of the Board. The Special Litigation Committee was established by the Board on February 1, 2005 and is composed of William E. McCracken and Mr. Zambonini, who replaces Laura Unger. The Special Litigation Committee has been given the authority to control and determine the Company’s response to a stockholder derivative action pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York entitled Computer Associates International, Inc. Derivative Litigation, No. 04-CIV-2697, as well as motions that have been made by certain stockholders of the Company to reopen the December 2003 settlements of a stockholder derivative action and two class actions with respect to certain current and former directors and officers of the Company.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Item 8.01 Other Events

On March 23, 2005, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the “Friedman Agreement”) with Donald R. Friedman, who has since been named Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer as of April 11, 2005.

Under the terms of the Friedman Agreement, Mr. Friedman will receive a base salary of $400,000 per year. With regard to fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008, Mr. Friedman is eligible to receive a target cash bonus of at least $400,000 (pursuant to the 2002 Plan or any successor plan). In addition, Mr. Friedman received (i) an initial restricted stock grant of 10,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock vesting one-third per year beginning one year after the date of grant and (ii) an initial stock option grant for 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant and a ten-year term, vesting one-third per year beginning one year after the date of grant. He will also participate in other employee benefit plans and programs available to executives of the Company.

The Friedman Agreement has an initial term of three years from the effective date of his employment, unless terminated earlier or extended in accordance with its terms. If Mr. Friedman’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” or by Mr. Friedman for “good reason” (as those terms are described in the Friedman Agreement) prior to the expiration of the term, he will receive a lump sum cash amount equal to his base salary.

The foregoing description of the Friedman Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement (including schedules and exhibits thereto) a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.12 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

On February 14, 2005, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the “Christenson Agreement”) with Michael J. Christenson, who has since been named Executive Vice President of Strategy and Business Development as of April 11, 2005.

Under the terms of the Christenson Agreement, Mr. Christenson will receive a base salary of $525,000 per year. In addition, Mr. Christenson will be eligible to receive (i) a target annual cash bonus of $525,000 and (ii) a long-term performance award for the performance period beginning April 1, 2005 under the Company’s New LTIP (as described in Section 1.01, above) with a target of at least $2,200,000. He will also receive an award of 14,000 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock vesting one-third per year beginning one year after the date of grant. Mr. Christenson will also participate in other employee benefit plans and programs available to executives of the Company.

 


 

The Christenson Agreement has an initial term of two years and is scheduled to expire on February 14, 2007, unless terminated earlier or extended in accordance with its terms. In the event that Mr. Christenson’s employment is terminated by the Company “without cause” or by Mr. Christenson for “good reason” (as those terms are defined in the Christenson Agreement), he will receive (i) one times his annual base salary and (ii) a pro-rated annual bonus equal to the target level of his annual bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination occurs pro-rated for the number of days actually worked prior to such termination.

The foregoing description of the Christenson Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement (including schedules and exhibits thereto) a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.13 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

    In the event an option is exercised by the executor or administrator of a deceased Optionee, or by the person or persons to whom the option has been transferred by the Optionee’s will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, the Company shall be under no obligation to deliver stock there under unless and until the Company is satisfied that the person or persons exercising the option is or are the duly appointed executor(s) or administrator(s) of the deceased Optionee or the person to whom the option has been transferred by the Optionee’s will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

 


 

4.   Payment for and Delivery of Stock
 
    Payment in full by cash, certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money order shall be made for all shares for which this option is exercised at the time of such exercise, and no shares shall be delivered until such payment is made.
 
    Alternatively, payment may be made by (i) delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds with respect to the portion of the shares to be acquired upon exercise having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the sum of the applicable portion of the exercise price being so paid, (ii) tendering to the Company (by physical delivery or by attestation) certificates representing shares of outstanding common stock, par value $.10, of the Company that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months prior to exercise, having a Fair Market Value on the day prior to the date of exercise equal to the applicable portion of the exercise price being so paid, together with stock powers duly executed and with signature guaranteed; or (iii) any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a form of payment will not be available if the Company determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such form of payment could violate any law or regulation.
 
    The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any stock unless and until (i) satisfactory arrangements have been made with the Company for the payment of any applicable tax withholding obligations, (ii) all applicable federal and state laws and regulations have been complied with, (iii) in the event the outstanding common stock is at the time listed upon any stock exchange, the shares to be delivered have been listed, or authorized to be listed upon official notice of issuance upon the exchanges where it is listed, and (iv) all legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of the shares have been approved by counsel of the Company. The Optionee shall have no rights of a stockholder until the stock is actually delivered to him.
 
5.   Recovery and Reimbursement of Option Gain

6.   Transferability of Options
 
    Except as provided below, this option may not be transferred by the Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Section 414(p) of the Internal Revenue Code, and during the Optionee’s lifetime this option may be exercised only by the Optionee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this option may be transferred by the Optionee to members of his or her immediate family or to one or more trusts for the benefit of such family members or to one or more partnerships in which such family members are the only partners provided that (i) the optionee does not receive any consideration for such transfer, (ii) written notice of any proposed transfer and the details thereof shall have been furnished to the Compensation and Human Resource Committee at least three (3) days in advance of such transfer, and (iii) the Compensation and Human Resource Committee consents to the transfer in writing. Options transferred pursuant to this provision will continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to such options immediately prior to transfer and the option may be exercised by the transferee only to the same extent that the option could have been exercised by the Optionee had no transfer been made. For this purpose, the Optionee’s “family members” shall include the Optionee’s spouse, children, grandchildren, parents, grandparents (whether natural step, adopted or in-laws) siblings, nieces, nephews and grandnieces and grand nephews.
 
7.   Termination of Employment or Consultancy
 
    Upon termination of employment or consultancy, other than termination of employment or consultancy by reason of (i) Retirement, as defined in the Plan, (ii) disability, or (iii) death, any portion of this option that has not become vested as of the date of termination shall immediately terminate and any portion of this option that has already vested as of such date shall terminate thirty (30) days after termination of employment or consultancy or the expiration date of the option, whichever occurs first.
 
8.   Retirement
 
    In the event of the Optionee’s Retirement, as defined in the Plan, from the employ of Company or any subsidiary, any portion of this option that has not become vested as of the date of Retirement shall immediately terminate and any portion of this option that has already vested as of such date shall terminate one (1) year after such Retirement or on the expiration date of the option, whichever occurs first.
 
9.   Disability
 
    In the event of termination of employment of the Optionee because of disability, any unexercised portion of this option held by the Optionee at the date of such termination (vested and unvested) will immediately become exercisable in full and will remain exercisable by the Optionee for a period of one (1) year or the remaining term of the option, whichever is shorter.
 
10.   Death
 
    If an Optionee dies while employed by the Company, any unexercised portion of this option held by the Optionee at his date of death (vested and unvested) will immediately become exercisable in full and will remain exercisable by the estate of the deceased Optionee or the person given authority to exercise his options by his will or by operation of law for a period of one (1) year or the remaining term of the option, whichever is shorter.

 


 

11.   Changes In Stock
 
    In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities or other property), extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, reorganization, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities, the issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase shares or other securities, or other similar corporate transaction or event, the number and kind of shares of stock of the Company covered by this option, the option price and other relevant provisions may be appropriately adjusted by the Compensation and Human Resource Committee, in its discretion, to the extent necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be provided by this option. Any such determinations and adjustments made by the Compensation and Human Resource Committee shall be binding on all persons. In the event of (i) a consolidation or merger in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, (ii) a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but holders of shares receive securities or another corporation, or (iii) a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets (as an entirety) or capital stock to another person, this option shall be deemed to apply to the equivalent amount of securities, cash or other property that is received by Company stockholders in exchange for their Company shares pursuant to such transaction; provided, however, that the Compensation and Human Resource Committee may, in its discretion, either (i) provide, upon written notice to the Optionee, that this option shall terminate as of the date specified in such notice (in which case the Compensation and Human Resource Committee may, but does not have to, accelerate the vesting of any portion of this option that has not already vested as of the date such notice is provided to the Optionee), or (ii) cancel this option and in consideration of such cancellation pay to the Optionee an amount in cash with respect to each share then remaining under the option equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of such share on the date of cancellation (or, if greater, the per share value of the consideration received by Company stockholders as a result of the merger, consolidation, reorganization or sale) and the per share exercise price of the option.
 
12.   Continuance of Employment
 
    This option shall not be deemed to obligate the Company or any subsidiary to retain the Optionee in its employ for any period.
 
13.   Incorporation by Reference of Employment Agreement
 
    Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, this stock option grant shall be subject to the applicable terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement entered into by and between Computer Associates International, Inc. and the Optionee, dated as of [___], which are incorporated herein by reference.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Agreement is entered into by and between Computer Associates International, Inc. (the “Company”) and Donald Friedman (the “Employee”) as of March 23, 2005. Subject to the Employee’s satisfactory completion of pre- and post-employment background, reference and other checks, the Employee’s employment under this Agreement will begin on or around April 15, 2005 (the first day of employment, the “Effective Date”).

     1. Employment, Duties, Authority and Work Standards. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Employee as Chief Marketing Officer and the Employee hereby accepts such position and agrees to serve the Company and its affiliates from time to time (together, the “Group”) in such capacity during the Employment Period (as defined below). The Employee shall report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Employee’s duties, responsibilities and authority shall be such duties, responsibilities and authority as are consistent with the above job title and such other duties, responsibilities and authority as the Chief Executive Officer shall from time to time specify.

     During the Employment Period, the Employee will not render any business, commercial or professional services to any non-member of the Group, except that the Employee may serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards, so long as these activities do not interfere with the performance of his responsibilities under this Agreement and such service is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

     2. Laws; Other Agreements. The Employee represents that his employment hereunder will not violate any law or duty by which he is bound, and will not conflict with or violate any agreement or instrument to which the Employee is a party or by which he is bound.

     3. Compensation.

          (a) In consideration of services that the Employee will render to the Company, the Company agrees to initially pay the Employee, during the Employment Period, the sum of $400,000 per annum (less applicable withholdings) (the “Base Salary”), payable semi-monthly concurrent with the Company’s normal payroll cycle. The Base Salary may be increased from time to time, at the discretion of the Board or a committee thereof. During the Employment Period, the Employee will be entitled to four (4) weeks of paid annual vacation. The Company will make available to the Employee corporate housing or other reasonable accommodations in Suffolk County, NY, for the period during which the Employee is working in the Company’s offices in Islandia, NY on a full-time basis.

          (b) During the Employment Period, with respect to each of the Company’s fiscal years ending March 31, 2006, March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008, management shall recommend that the Employee be eligible to receive an annual cash bonus (“Annual Bonus”) under the Company’s 2002 Incentive Plan or a successor plan (the “Incentive Plan”) with a target level of at least $400,000, provided that such targeted amount and the other terms and conditions of such Annual Bonus shall be subject to determination and approval of the Compensation and Human Resource Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) in accordance with the terms of the Incentive Plan.

          (c) As of the Effective Date, the Employee will be granted an award of 10,000 restricted shares (“Restricted Stock”) of Common Stock, subject to restrictions on transferability as set forth in the Incentive Plan and the Restricted Stock grant agreement provided to the Employee. Such Restricted Stock grant agreement shall provide that the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock shall lapse in three approximately equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, provided the Employee remains employed through the applicable vesting date.

     5. Termination; Termination Payments.

          (a) Unless the Employee’s employment shall sooner terminate for any reason pursuant to paragraph 5 of this Agreement, the “Employment Period” shall commence on the Effective Date and shall initially terminate on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, except that beginning on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, the Employment Period will automatically extend for one year unless either the Employee or the Company gives at least 90 days’ advance written notice of non-extension.

          (b) In the event that the Employee’s employment is terminated during the Employment Period (i) by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in Appendix A) or (ii) by the Company without Cause (as defined in Appendix A), other than as a result of the Employee’s death or disability (within the meaning of the Company’s long-term disability program then in effect), subject to the Employee’s execution and delivery of a valid and effective release and waiver in a form satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall pay the Employee a lump sum cash amount equal to one (1) times Employee’s Base Salary, within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such release and waiver.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason, the rights of the Employee with respect to any shares of restricted stock or options to purchase Common Stock held by the Employee which, as of the Termination Date, have not been forfeited shall be subject to the applicable rules of the plan or agreement under which such restricted stock or options were granted as they exist from time to time. In addition, upon the termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason, the Company shall pay to the Employee his Base Salary through the Termination Date, plus any unused vacation time accrued through the Termination Date. Any vested benefits and other amounts that the Employee is otherwise entitled to receive under any employee benefit plan, policy, practice or program of the Company or any of its affiliates shall be payable in accordance with such employee benefit plan, policy, practice or program as the case may be, provided that the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any other payments or benefits in the nature of severance or termination pay.

          (d) In the event that the Agreement expires pursuant to paragraph 5(a) or the Employee resigns without Good Reason, is terminated for Cause, or dies or becomes disabled (within the meaning of the Company’s long-term disability program then in effect) during the Employment Period, no benefits shall be payable to the Employee under paragraph 5(b) of this Agreement, but the terms and conditions of paragraph 5(c) shall remain in effect.

     6. No Duration of Employment. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company and the Employee each acknowledge and agree that the Employee’s employment with the Company may be terminated by either the Company upon 60 days’ written notice to the Employee (subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 of this Agreement) or by the Employee upon 60 days’ written notice to the Company (subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 of this Agreement), at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause; provided that this Agreement may be terminated for Cause immediately upon written notice from the Company to the Employee; and provided further that the Company may determine to waive all or part of the Employee’s 60 days’ notice period at its discretion (and will then pay the Employee in lieu of such waived notice period). In addition, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon Employee’s death or disability (determined in accordance with the Company’s practices and policies). Upon termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason whatsoever, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Employee other than those set forth in paragraph 5 of this Agreement. The effective date of the Employee’s termination of employment shall be referred to herein as the “Termination Date.”

     7. General.

          (a) Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be made either:

               (i) by personal delivery to the Employee or, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s principal office (“Principal Office”) located at One Computer Associates Plaza, Islandia, New York 11749, Attention: Senior Vice President – Human Resources, or

               (ii) in writing and sent by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Employee’s residence, or, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s Principal Office.

          (c) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any action relating to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts of the State of New York.

          (d) This Agreement, the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement executed by the Employee on or about the Effective Date and the other documents referred to herein represent the entire agreement between the Employee and the Company related to the Employee’s employment and supersede any and all previous oral or written communications, representations or agreements related thereto. This Agreement may only be modified, in writing, jointly by the Employee and a duly authorized representative of the Company. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

          (e) The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable in the event that any of the provisions hereof (including any provision within a single paragraph or sentence) are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable in any respect, and the validity and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be impaired and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. In addition, waiver by any party hereto of any breach or default by the other party of any of the terms of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach or default, whether similar to or different from the breach or default waived.

Appendix A

     For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means any of the following:

          (1) The Employee’s continued failure, either due to willful action or as a result of gross neglect, to substantially perform his duties and responsibilities to the Group under this Agreement (other than any such failure resulting from the Employee’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness) that, if capable of being cured, has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered to the Employee, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the manner in which the Company believes the Employee has not substantially performed his duties and responsibilities.

          (2) The Employee’s engagement in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Group, or that materially harms the reputation or financial position of the Group, unless the conduct in question was undertaken in good faith on an informed basis with due care and with a rational business purpose and based upon the honest belief that such conduct was in the best interest of the Group.

          (3) The Employee’s indictment or conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or any other crime involving dishonesty, fraud or moral turpitude.

          (4) The Employee’s being found liable in any SEC or other civil or criminal securities law action or entering any cease and desist order with respect to such action (regardless of whether or not he admits or denies liability).

          (5) The Employee’s breach of his fiduciary duties to the Group which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Group. However, to the extent the breach is curable, the Company must give the Employee notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure.

          (6) The Employee’s (i) obstructing or impeding, (ii) endeavoring to influence, obstruct or impede or (iii) failing to materially cooperate with, any investigation authorized by the Board or any governmental or self-regulatory entity (an “Investigation”). However, the Employee’s failure to waive attorney-client privilege relating to communications with his own attorney in connection with an Investigation shall not constitute “Cause”.

          (7) The Employee’s withholding, removing, concealing, destroying, altering or by any other means falsifying any material which is requested in connection with an Investigation.

          (8) The Employee’s disqualification or bar by any governmental or self-regulatory authority from serving in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement or his loss of any governmental or self-regulatory license that is reasonably necessary for him to perform his responsibilities to the Group under this Agreement, if (a) the disqualification, bar or loss continues for more than 30 days and (b) during that period the Group uses its good faith efforts to cause the disqualification or bar to be lifted or the license replaced. While any disqualification, bar or loss continues during the Employee’s employment, he will serve in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement to whatever extent legally permissible and, if his employment is not permissible, he will be placed on leave (which will be paid to the extent legally permissible).

          (9) The Employee’s unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, or related materials, or the violation of any of the terms of the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement executed by the Employee or any Company standard confidentiality policies and procedures, which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Group and that, if capable of being cured, has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered to the Employee by the Company, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the alleged unauthorized use or disclosure or violation.

          (10) The Employee’s violation of the Group’s (i) Workplace Violence Policy or (ii) policies on discrimination, unlawful harassment or substance abuse.

     For this definition, no act or omission by the Employee will be “willful” unless it is made by the Employee in bad faith or without a reasonable belief that his act or omission was in the best interests of the Group.

4


 

     For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any of the following:

          (1) Any material and adverse change in the Employee’s position with the Group;

          (2) Any material and adverse reduction in the Employee’s authorities or responsibilities other than any isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure by the Company that is not in bad faith;

          (3) Any reduction by the Company in the Employee’s Base Salary or target level of Annual Bonus as set forth in Sections 3(a) and (b), respectively, other than any such reduction agreed to by the Employee in writing;

          (4) The Company’s material breach of this Agreement; or

          (5) The Employee ceases to report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company;

          provided that, no alleged action, reduction or breach set forth in (1) through (4) above shall be deemed to constitute “Good Reason” unless such action, reduction or breach remains uncured, as the case may be, after the expiration of thirty (30) days following delivery to the Company from the Employee of a written notice, setting forth such course of conduct deemed by the Employee to constitute “Good Reason.”

          (b) In the event that the Employee’s employment is terminated during the Employment Period (i) by the Employee for Good Reason (as defined in Appendix A) or (ii) by the Company without Cause (as defined in Appendix A), other than as a result of the Employee’s death or disability (within the meaning of the Company’s long-term disability program then in effect), subject to the Employee’s execution and delivery of a valid and effective release and waiver in a form satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall pay the Employee ratably over 12 months, on the Company’s regular payroll dates, an amount equal to (A) one (1) times Employee’s Base Salary and (B) Employee’s “Pro-Rated Annual Bonus”.

               (ii) in writing and sent by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Employee’s residence, or, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s Principal Office.

          (b) This Agreement shall be binding upon the Employee and his heirs, executors, assigns, and administrators and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns and any subsidiary or parent of the Company.

          (c) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any action relating to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts of the State of New York, County of Suffolk.

This Agreement may only be modified, in writing, jointly by the Employee and a duly authorized representative of the Company.

          (2) The Employee’s engagement in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Group, or that materially harms the reputation or financial position of the Group, unless the conduct in question was undertaken in good faith on an informed basis with due care and with a rational business purpose and based upon the honest belief that such conduct was in the best interest of the Group.

          (3) The Employee’s indictment or conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or any other crime involving dishonesty, fraud or moral turpitude.

          (4) The Employee’s being found liable in any SEC or other civil or criminal securities law action or entering any cease and desist order with respect to such action (regardless of whether or not he admits or denies liability).

While any disqualification, bar or loss continues during the Employee’s employment, he will serve in the capacity contemplated by this Agreement to whatever extent legally permissible and, if his employment is not permissible, he will be placed on leave (which will be paid to the extent legally permissible).

          (9) The Employee’s unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, or related materials, or the violation of any of the terms of the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement executed by the Employee or any Company standard confidentiality policies and procedures, which may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Group and that, if capable of being cured, has not been cured within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered to the Employee by the Company, which notice specifies in reasonable detail the alleged unauthorized use or disclosure or violation.

          (10) The Employee’s violation of the Group’s (i) Workplace Violence Policy or (ii) policies on discrimination, unlawful harassment or substance abuse.

     For this definition, no act or omission by the Employee will be “willful” unless it is made by the Employee in bad faith or without a reasonable belief that his act or omission was in the best interests of the Group.
