ARTICLE II

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT; KEY EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PLAN

     2.1 Ratification of Employment Agreement. Executive confirms that Executive has executed and delivered to the Company the Employment Agreement and the Invention Agreement in the forms of Exhibits A and B hereto, respectively, and that there have been no oral or written modifications or amendments to, or waivers of, the provisions of the Existing Agreements. Executive agrees with the Company that the Existing Agreements shall continue in full force and effect after the Merger with respect to Executive’s employment with the Company. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between this Agreement and the Existing Agreements, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

     2.2 Agreement to Continue Service as a Company Executive. Except for Good Reason (as defined below), Executive hereby agrees not to terminate his regular full-time employment with the Company prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

     2.3 Cross Default. Any breach or failure to perform by Executive under this Agreement shall constitute a breach or failure to perform by Executive under the Employment Agreement.

     2.4 Employment Programs; Changes in Job Title and Reporting Lines. Executive understands and agrees that, after completion of the Offer and the Merger, the Company and Parent may commence the integration of some or all of the Company’s existing compensation, benefits and other employment plans, policies, programs and practices (“Employment Programs”) with those of Parent and/or other Affiliates of the Company, and that the Company and its Affiliates may make changes in their Employment Programs as it or they deem appropriate subject to applicable legal requirements, required corporate approvals and the terms of any applicable plans, policies, programs and practices; and it is understood and agreed that no such changes shall constitute a breach of the Employment Agreement or this Agreement, be deemed to be a termination of Executive’s employment without Good Cause (under this

2

Agreement or the Employment Agreement) or be deemed to give rise to Good Reason. Executive further understands and agrees that the Offer and Merger will result in changes in job titles, reporting lines and duties as a result of the Company becoming a Subsidiary of Parent and the subsequent evolution of the businesses of the Company, Parent and their Affiliates, and that the Company and its Affiliates will be entitled to change Executive’s reporting lines, job title(s) and duties in the future to address business needs (including changes that result in Executive holding a position or performing duties for an Affiliate of the Company), so long as Executive continues to be employed in an executive-level position; and it is understood and agreed that no such changes shall constitute a breach of the Employment Agreement or this Agreement, be deemed to be a termination of Executive’s employment without Good Cause (under this Agreement or the Employment Agreement) or be deemed to give rise to Good Reason.

     2.5 Termination of Key Executive Severance Plan Rights. Effective as of the date of this Agreement, all rights and entitlements of Executive under the Company’s Key Executive Severance Plan and the Letter Agreement dated July 23, 2003, between Executive and the Company thereunder are hereby terminated and canceled; and Executive shall hereafter cease to be a participant under such plan. In addition, Executive agrees that, except for the severance entitlements expressly provided for in the Employment Agreement, he will not have any right or entitlement to severance or other compensation following the termination of his employment with the Company and its Affiliates.

For the avoidance of any doubt, nothing in this Agreement is intended to cause the level of compensation or benefits provided to Executive by the Company to be increased, enhanced or improved in any way.

ARTICLE III

ARTICLE IV

NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION

     4.1 Acknowledgments.

          (a) Executive acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates have expended and shall continue to expend substantial amounts of time, money and effort to develop business strategies, employee and customer relationships, relationships and goodwill and build an effective organization. Executive acknowledges that during Executive’s prior employment and association with the Company, Executive has become familiar with the Company’s and its Affiliates’ Confidential Information (as defined below), including trade secrets, and that following the consummation of the Offer and Merger, Executive will become familiar with further Confidential Information of the Company and its Affiliates, including trade secrets, and that Executive’s services are of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company and its Affiliates. Executive acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates have a legitimate business interest and right in protecting such Confidential Information, goodwill, employee and customer relationships, and that the Company and its Affiliates would be seriously damaged by the disclosure of such Confidential Information and the loss or deterioration of their relationships with customers, employees, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or agents. Executive further

6

acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates and their respective successors are entitled to protect and preserve the going concern value of the Company and its Affiliates to the fullest extent permitted by law and that Parent and Purchaser would not have entered into the Merger Agreement without Executive’s agreement to enter into this Agreement.

          (b) Executive acknowledges (i) that the business of the Company and its Affiliates is and will continue to be international in scope and without geographical limitation and (ii) notwithstanding the state of incorporation or principal office of the Company and its Affiliates, or the location of any of its or their executives or employees (including, without limitation, Executive), it is expected that the Company and its Affiliates will have business activities and have valuable business relationships within their respective industries throughout the United States and the world. In addition, Executive agrees and acknowledges that the potential harm to the Company and its Affiliates of the non-enforcement of this Article IV outweighs any potential harm to Executive of its enforcement by injunction or otherwise. Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Executive by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and proper protection of Confidential Information and other legitimate business interests of the Company and its Affiliates now existing or to be developed in the future. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area.

          (c) In light of the foregoing acknowledgments and the substantial cash consideration to be paid to Executive and his Affiliates under the Merger Agreement, Executive agrees that the covenants contained in this Article IV are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the businesses and goodwill of the Company and Parent. Executive further acknowledges that although Executive’s compliance with the covenants contained in this Article IV may prevent Executive from earning a livelihood in a business similar to the businesses of the Company and its Affiliates, Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that Executive has other opportunities to earn a livelihood and has and will have adequate means of support for Executive and Executive’s dependents.

The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights. A waiver by any party of any agreement or condition contained in this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other condition or agreement herein contained.

     7.3 Fees and Expenses. Each party shall bear all of his or its own respective fees and expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement, and no party may recover any such fees and expenses from any other party upon any termination of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

     7.4 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly delivered if delivered by hand, by facsimile transmission, or by courier or overnight carrier to the persons at the addresses set forth below:

Any party to this Agreement may change the address to which notices and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other parties to this Agreement notice in the manner herein set forth.

     7.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) and the Employment Agreement (as amended hereby) constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, or any of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

     7.6 Parent as Intended Third Party Beneficiary. Parent is an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor Executive shall amend, terminate, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement without the prior written consent of Parent.

     7.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void, except that Parent may assign its rights as a third party beneficiary under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates without the consent of the other parties hereto and that the Company may assign this Agreement and Parent may assign its rights under this Agreement without the consent of the other parties hereto to any other Person that acquires (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company and/or Parent. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

     7.8 Severability. If a final and non-appealable judicial determination is made that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Employment Agreement constitutes an unreasonable restriction or otherwise is unenforceable, the provisions of this Agreement or the Employment Agreement will not be rendered void but will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to remain in force and effect for the greatest period and to such extent as such court may determine constitutes a reasonable or valid restriction or provision under the circumstances. The parties agree that the court making the determination of unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the unenforceable term or

13

provision, and this Agreement or the Employment Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. Moreover, notwithstanding the fact that any provision of this Agreement or the Employment Agreement is determined not to be specifically enforceable, the Company will nevertheless be entitled to recover monetary damages as a result of Executive’s breach of such provision. If the court declines to enforce this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, in whole or in part, the parties agree to modify this Agreement to provide the Company with the maximum protection of the Company’s business interests as allowed by law and to be bound by this Agreement as modified. If any provision of this Agreement shall nonetheless be declared ambiguous, unenforceable or invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the Agreement shall be read as if the ambiguous, unenforceable or invalid provision was not contained herein.

     7.9 Counterparts and Signature. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall become effective between the Company and Executive when counterparts have been signed by each such party hereto and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile transmission.

     7.10 Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. Any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” All references to Affiliates of the Company contained herein shall be deemed to include Parent and its Affiliates from and after the Effective Time. No summary of this Agreement prepared by any party shall affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

     7.11 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the Commonwealth of Virginia or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions other than those of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

     7.12 Remedies. Executive acknowledges that a violation by Executive of any of the covenants contained in Article IV would cause irreparable damage to the Company and its Affiliates in an amount that would be material but not readily ascertainable, and that any remedy at law (including the payment of damages) would be inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company and Parent shall be entitled (without the necessity of showing economic loss or other actual damage) to injunctive relief (including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and/or permanent injunctions) in any court of competent jurisdiction for any actual or threatened breach of any of the covenants set forth in Article IV in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies it may have. The preceding sentence shall not be construed as a waiver of the rights

14

that the Company or Parent may have for damages (including liquidated damages under Article III) under this Agreement or otherwise, and all rights of the Company and Parent shall be unrestricted. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company and Parent shall be entitled to recover from Executive all litigation costs and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Company and Parent in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any breach or threatened breach of the covenants set forth in Article IV (whether the Company or Parent seeks enforcement of this Agreement or seeks relief from Executive’s violation of this Agreement). No remedy conferred upon or reserved to any party herein is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.

     7.13 Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Commonwealth of Virginia in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court, (c) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (d) agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Employment Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated hereby or thereby in any other court. Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Any party hereto may make service on another party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 7.4. Nothing in this Section 7.13, however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

     7.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.
