TERMS OF AGREEMENT

     In consideration of this Agreement and the employment of the Executive by the Company, the parties agree as follows:

     1. Employment.

The Company hereby employs Executive, on a full-time basis, to act as an executive of the Company and to perform such acts and duties and furnish such services to the Company as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors (the “Board”) shall from time to time reasonably direct. Executive hereby accepts said employment. Executive shall use his best and most diligent efforts to promote the interests of the Company; shall discharge his duties in a highly competent manner; and shall devote his full business time and his best business judgment, skill and knowledge to the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder. Executive shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or such officer of the Company as may be designated by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board. Nothing contained herein shall preclude Executive from devoting incidental and insubstantial amounts of time to activities other than the business of the Company and which are not inconsistent with the best interests of the Company.

     2. Term of Employment. The Company agrees to employ the Executive for a period commencing on February 9, 2005 through and including August 31, 2006 (the “Employment Period.”) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to terminate the Executive’s employment under this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to Executive, subject to the Company’s obligation to pay severance benefits as provided in Section 3.9 and the Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment under this Agreement upon one-hundred and eighty (180) days’ written notice to the Company. If Executive shall remain in the employ of the Company beyond the Employment Period, in the absence of any other express agreement between the parties, this Agreement shall be deemed to continue on a month-to-month basis (the “Extended Employment Period”).

A determination of disability shall be made by a physician satisfactory to both the Executive and the Company, provided that if the Executive and the Company do not agree on a physician, the Employee and the Company shall each select a physician and these two together shall select a third physician, whose determination shall be binding on all parties.

          3.9 Severance Pay. In the event that the Company terminates this Agreement without cause (i.e. other than pursuant to Section 3.8 or Section 4 hereof) at any time (including during the Extended Employment Period) or does not renew or extend this Agreement without cause (i.e. other than consistent with Section 3.8 or Section 4 hereof), and subject to the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a severance agreement and release drafted by and satisfactory to counsel for the Company, the Company shall continue to pay Executive at his then current Base Salary for the remainder of the Employment Period or for eighteen (18) months, whichever is longer (the “Severance Period”). Neither party shall be entitled to any compensation or claim for good will or other loss suffered by reason of termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s obligations under this Section 3.9 shall cease immediately upon the payment by the Company to the Executive of the lump sum payment described in Section 4.2(a)(i) of the Executive Retention Agreement, dated as of the date hereof by and between the Company and the Executive.

          3.10 Benefits During Severance Period. Except as otherwise required by law, the Executive shall not be entitled to any employee benefits provided under Section 3.6 after termination of Executive’s employment whether or not severance pay is being provided, except that if severance pay is being provided (i) the Company shall continue in full force and effect, at its expense, the life insurance provided for in Section 3.6(b) for a period of eighteen (18) months after termination of Executive’s employment hereunder or until Executive becomes employed, whichever first occurs, and (ii) the Company shall offer, at its expense, continued health and dental insurance as required under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985

If Executive elects not to maintain health insurance pursuant to COBRA or other law, the Company is under no obligation to reimburse Executive for his otherwise elected coverage. Executive shall be obligated to give the Company prompt notice of his subsequent employment and at that time, the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 3.10, if any, shall cease.

     4. Discharge for Cause. The Company may discharge Executive and terminate his employment under this Agreement for cause without further liability to the Company. As used in this Section 4, “cause” shall mean any or all of the following:

          (a) a good faith finding by the Company of any of the following: failure of the Executive to perform his assigned duties for the Company, dishonesty, gross negligence, misconduct, theft or embezzlement from the Company, the intentional provision of services to competitors of the Company or improper disclosure of proprietary information;

          (b) a good faith finding by the Company of a breach of any material provision of the Company’s Code of Conduct or other policies and procedures; provided that the breach is not cured within 10 days after a written demand for cure is received by the Executive from the Board of Directors of the Company which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board of Directors believes the Executive has breached a material provision of the Company’s Code of Conduct or other policies and procedures; or

          (c) indictment, conviction (or the entry of a pleading of guilty or nolo contendere by Executive) of a fraud or felony or any criminal offense involving dishonesty, breach of trust or moral turpitude or that falls within the ambit of 42 U.S.C. §§ 1320a-7(a) during Executive’s employment; or

          (d) exclusion, debarment or suspension from participation in the Federal health care programs or in Federal procurement or nonprocurement programs.

     In the event the Company exercises its right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Section 4, Executive shall not be entitled to receive any severance pay or other termination benefits.

     In the event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment without cause but the Board of Directors determines subsequently that the Company had the right to terminate Executive’s employment pursuant to this Section 4, the Company may terminate the payment of all amounts to Executive pursuant to Sections 3.9 and 3.10, and Executive shall return all previous payments made to him pursuant to such Sections and any options held by Executive but not yet exercised shall cease to be exercisable.

     5. Termination Without Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement without cause without further liability to the Company except as set forth in Sections 3.9 and 3.10.

4

     6. Expenses. Pursuant to the Company’s customary policies in force at the time of payment, Executive shall be promptly reimbursed for business related expenses.

     7. Agreement Not to Compete and Invention and Non-Disclosure Agreement. Executive acknowledges that he shall execute with the Company on the commencement of the Employment Period a Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement and an Invention and Non-Disclosure Agreement (the “Additional Agreements”). Executive acknowledges that the Additional Agreements, once executed, will survive the termination of this Agreement.

     8. Arbitration. The Employee agrees that any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Employee’s employment with and/or termination from the Company (including, but not limited to, all claims, demands or actions under any federal, state or local statute or regulation regarding employment discrimination, and/or all claims, demands or actions concerning the interpretation, construction, performance or breach of this Agreement) shall be settled by arbitration held in Boston, Massachusetts in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association, before an arbitrator who shall have experience in the area of the matter in dispute. Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees in connection with any arbitration pursuant to this paragraph. Provided, however, that this paragraph shall not apply to any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the interpretation, construction, performance or breach of the Additional Agreements, and no such dispute or controversy shall be deemed to be arbitrable in the absence of the Company’s written agreement.

     9. Notices. Any notice or communication given by any party hereto to the other party or parties shall be in writing and personally delivered or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the addresses provided above. All notices shall be deemed given when actually received. Any person entitled to receive notice (or a copy thereof) may designate in writing, by notice to the others, another address to which notices to such person shall thereafter be sent.

     10. Miscellaneous.

          10.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall affect Executive’s or the Company’s obligations under the Additional Agreements.

No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision.

          10.3 Binding Effect; Assignment. The rights and obligations of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of any successor of the Company by reorganization, merger or consolidation, or any assignee of all or substantially all of the Company’s business and properties.

Executive; except that Executive’s right to compensation to the earlier of date of death or termination of actual employment shall pass to Executive’s executor or administrator.

          10.4 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

          10.5 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to conflict of laws provisions. Executive hereby irrevocably submits and acknowledges and recognizes the jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, or if appropriate, a federal court located in Massachusetts (which courts, for purposes of this Agreement, are the only courts of competent jurisdiction), over any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the subject matter hereof.

          10.8 Severability. If any one or more of the terms, provisions, covenants or restrictions of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. If, moreover, any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting or reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with then applicable law.
