Gray Hudkins, an individual residing at 24 Fifth Avenue, Apt. 701, New York, New York 10011 (“Hudkins”).

Whereas, Hudkins has recently agreed to become the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, with the understanding that he would receive a restricted stock award as herein provided; and the Company believes it to be in the best interests of the Company to induce Hudkins to become its Chief Operating Officer, and the Company has agreed to award restricted stock to Hudkins under the terms of his employment agreement entered into on or about the date hereof (the “Employment Agreement,” which includes such agreement as the same may be amended hereafter), and the Company desires to secure the services of Hudkins by providing Hudkins with an inducement to enter into the Employment Agreement and to remain an officer, employee or consultant of the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries through the award of restricted stock as herein provided.

Now, Therefore, the parties agree as follows:

1. Restricted Stock. Subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, the Company hereby grants to Hudkins, as of the date hereof (the “Grant Date”), a restricted stock award, subject to the vesting schedule set forth below, of Forty Thousand shares (the “Restricted Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.02 per share (the “Common Stock”). As more fully described below, the Restricted Shares granted hereby are subject to forfeiture by Hudkins as provided herein.

2. Vesting.

(a) The Restricted Shares shall vest and be deemed earned and become nonforfeitable as follows:

• on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, 13,334 shares;

• on the second anniversary of the Date of Grant, 13,333 shares;

• on the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, 13,333 shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all of the Restricted Shares shall immediately vest and become nonforfeitable when and if (i) Hudkins’s employment with the Company is terminated without “cause” (as such term is used in the employment agreement dated as of ______, 2004, by and between the Company and Hudkins (the “Employment Agreement”)), or (ii) Hudkins dies, or (iii) a Change-of-Control Event occurs. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change-of-Control Event” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (i) there shall have been a change in a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company within a two (2) year period, unless the

(b) Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth herein, such vesting schedule may be accelerated by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) in their sole decision.

15. Section 83(b) Election. If Hudkins files an election with the Internal Revenue Service to include the fair market value of any Restricted Shares in gross income as of the Grant Date, the Restricted Stockholder agrees to promptly furnish the Company with a copy of such election, together with the amount of any federal, state, local or other taxes required to be withheld to enable the Company to claim an income tax deduction with respect to such election

16. Withholding Taxes. Hudkins acknowledges that the Company is not responsible for the tax consequences to Hudkins of the granting, vesting or issuance of the Restricted Shares, and that it is the responsibility of Hudkins to consult with Hudkins’s personal tax advisor regarding all matters with respect to the tax consequences of the granting, vesting and issuance of the Restricted Shares.
