9.Enforceability.  This Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof shall be prohibited or invalid under any such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or nullifying the remainder of such provision or any other provisions of this Agreement.  If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, such provisions shall be construed by limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

11.Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. The Company and Executive hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Florida and of the United States located in Brevard County of Florida and each agrees not to raise and waive any objection to or defense based on the venue of any such court or forum non conveniens.

12.Section 409A.             This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations thereunder.  To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be interpreted in a manner so that no payment due to Executive shall be subject to an “additional tax” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.  To the extent that any provision in the Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, or to the extent any provision in the Agreement must be modified to comply with Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be read, or shall be modified (with the mutual consent of the parties), as the case may be, in such a manner so that no payment due to Executive shall be subject to an “additional tax” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment.  In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment.  All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement be for expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a payment or benefit under this Agreement is due to a “separation from service” for purposes of the rules under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(2) (payments to specified employees upon a separation from service) and Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” (as determined under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i)), such payment or benefit shall, to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, be made or provided on the later of the date specified by the foregoing provisions of this Agreement or the date that is six months after the date of Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of Executive’s death).  Any installment payments that are delayed pursuant to this Section 12 shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s separation from service, and the remaining installment payments shall begin on such date in accordance with the schedule provided in this Agreement.

13.Amendments and Waivers.  This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Executive.  No waiver of this Agreement or any provision hereof shall be binding upon the party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought unless it is made in writing and signed by or on behalf of such party.  The waiver of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or a continuing waiver of the same or any subsequent breach of any provision of this Agreement.  No delay or omission in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right.

14.Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors and administrators, successors and assigns, except that the rights and obligations of the Executive hereunder are personal and may not be assigned without the Company’s prior written consent.  Without limiting the generality of the prior sentence, it is understood that the Company’s successors and assigns shall have the right to enforce Sections 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement.  The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no succession had taken place.  Failure of the Company to obtain an assumption of this Agreement at or prior to the effectiveness of any succession shall be a material breach of this Agreement.  Any assignment of this Agreement by the Company shall not constitute a termination of the Executive’s employment.  Each affiliated company, subsidiary and parent company of the Company shall be an intended third party beneficiary of Sections 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement.

15.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the final and entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and replaces and supersedes all other agreements and understandings, including the Prior Agreement, relating hereto and to the Executive’s employment.

16.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including counterpart signature pages or counterpart facsimile signature pages, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

17.No Conflicting Agreements.  The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that the Executive is not a party to or bound by any confidentiality, noncompetition, nonsolicitation, employment, consulting or other agreement or restriction which could conflict with, or be violated by, the performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company or obligations under this Agreement.

18.Review of Agreement.  The Executive acknowledges that the Executive (a) has carefully read and understands all of the provisions of this Agreement and has had the opportunity for this Agreement to be reviewed by counsel, (b) is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and (c) has not relied upon any representation or statement made by the Company (or its affiliates, equity holders, agents, representatives, employees or attorneys) with regard to the subject matter or effect of this Agreement.  The Executive further acknowledges that the provisions in Sections 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill, customer relationships, legitimate business interests and Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliated companies, and the Company would not have entered into this Agreement or the restricted stock agreement without the benefit of such provisions.
