Sample Business Contracts


Executive Employment Agreement - Tyco International Ltd. and Eric M. Pillmore

Employment Forms

  • Employers can customize an employment agreement that states the salary, benefits, working hours and other important provisions for their new or existing employee.
  • Answer simple questions to build a contract with a consultant. Specify the services rendered, when payment is due, as well as IP rights.
  • Employers who compensate their sales employees based on commissions can prepare an agreement to reduce misunderstandings by specifying the base salary and how commissions are calculated.
  • Companies may offer their business executives a contract that is different from the one provided to their regular employees. Executive employment agreements may be more complex because the compensation structure may include a combination of salary and commissions, provide for bonuses based on sales, stock or other financial targets, and include non-compete, confidentiality and severance provisions.
  • Independent sales representatives offer companies the potential to increase the sale of products or services without the burden of increasing headcount. Both parties should understand how commissions are calculated, when commissions will be paid, as well as how the representative will treat confidential information from the company and whether the representative may also sell a competing line of products or services.

this Agreement, the Restricted Shares shall vest in three (3) equal amounts on

     6.   EMPLOYEE BENEFITS.

          (a)     BENEFIT PLANS. The Executive shall be entitled to participate
in all employee benefit plans and programs of the Company including, but not
limited to, equity, pension, thrift, profit sharing, medical coverage, group
life insurance, education, or other retirement or welfare benefits that the
Company has adopted or may adopt, maintain or contribute to for the benefit of
its senior executives at a level commensurate with his positions subject to
satisfying the applicable eligibility requirements. Such benefits, in the
aggregate, shall be no less favorable than the level of benefits in effect on
the Effective Date; provided, however, that in the event there is a reduction of
employee benefits applicable to senior executives generally, nothing herein
shall preclude the Company's ability to reduce the Executive's benefits
consistent with such reduction.

          (b)     SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT BENEFIT.

                  (i)    Subject to the provisions of this Section 6(b), the
     Executive shall be entitled to receive an annual supplemental retirement
     benefit (the "Supplemental Retirement Benefit") payable at the later of age
     62 and termination of employment in the form of a single-life annuity equal
     to 2% multiplied by the number (expressed in whole numbers and fractions)
     of completed and partial years of service with the Company after the
     Effective Date times the Executive's Final Average Earnings (as defined
     below), which product shall be reduced by (A) benefits from any defined
     benefit pension plans (whether or not tax-qualified) maintained (or
     formerly maintained) by the Company or its affiliates, and (B) benefits
     attributable to employer contributions, including, without limitation,
     matching contributions but not salary reduction contributions, to any
     defined contribution plans maintained by the Company or its affiliates
     (whether or not tax qualified), such reduction to be based on (1) actual
     account balances under such defined contribution plans if paid on or after
     commencement of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit hereunder, or (2)
     actual account balances under such defined contribution plans plus
     theoretical annual earnings after August 12, 2002 equal in each year to the
     prime rate (as reported in The Wall Street Journal) on the first business
     day of each year, if paid or commenced to be paid prior to the commencement
     of such Supplemental Retirement

                                        4
<Page>

     Benefit. For purposes of determining the offset in the immediately
     preceding sentence, the benefits described in (A) and (B) above shall be
     converted into the form of a single-life annuity payable at the later of
     age 62 and termination of employment. The Executive shall provide the
     Company with any information that it shall reasonably request with respect
     to benefits payable under the defined benefit plan or plans maintained by
     his immediately preceding employer.

                  (ii)   The Executive shall vest in the benefit payable
     pursuant to subsection (b)(i) at the rate of 1.66% per month over 60 months
     commencing on the Effective Date. If the Executive's employment by the
     Company is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability or
     by the Executive for Good Reason prior to the first anniversary of the
     Effective Date, the Executive shall be deemed to be 20% vested in the
     benefit payable pursuant to subsection (b)(i).

                  (iii)  The Executive shall be fully vested in the benefit
     payable pursuant to subsection (b)(i) upon the occurrence of a Change in
     Control and shall receive an immediate distribution of such benefit upon
     the occurrence of a Change in Control. Such distribution shall be
     actuarially adjusted using the then current PBGC interest rate and
     mortality table for immediate annuities. Upon such distribution, the
     Executive shall accrue no further benefits under this Section 6(b).

                  (iv)   In the event of the Executive's termination prior to
     age 62, the benefit payable pursuant to this subsection may, at the
     Executive's election, commence early, except that the benefit shall be
     reduced by .25% per month for each month or partial month the commencement
     date is prior to age 62. The benefit will be paid to the Executive for his
     lifetime, except as otherwise provided herein. The Executive may elect in
     writing to receive a distribution of any portion or all of his benefit
     payable pursuant to subsection (b)(i) or this subsection (b)(iv) in any
     form permitted under the applicable Company's supplemental retirement plan
     or, if the Executive elects in the calendar year prior to his termination
     of employment (at least 6 months prior to such termination), an actuarially
     equivalent lump sum payment which, in the case of any such alternative form
     of benefit elected, is cost neutral to the Company as compared to the
     ordinary form of benefit.

                  (v)    In the event of the Executive's death while an employee
     of the Company prior to the date of commencement of benefits, a benefit
     shall be paid to the Executive's surviving spouse, if any, when the
     Executive would have commenced benefits hereunder for her lifetime equal to
     the benefit which would have been payable to the spouse assuming the
     Executive had terminated the day preceding the date of death, elected to
     receive and commenced receiving benefits in the form of a joint and 50%
     spousal survivor's annuity and then died.

                  (vi)   The calculation of the adjustments for the offset or
     alternative forms of benefits payable pursuant to this Section 6(b) (except
     as otherwise provided in subsections (iii) and (iv) above) shall be based
     upon (x) the actuarial assumptions used in the Company's defined benefit
     plans covering the Executive, (y) if none then exists, those in the last
     such plan of the Company or its affiliates (if any) which covered the

                                        5
<Page>

     Executive or (z) if no such plan ever existed, those selected by the
     independent actuary described in the next sentence. If such a plan exists,
     the calculation shall be made by the actuary for such plan or, if there is
     no current plan or actuary, by an independent actuary selected by the
     Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive. The calculation of the
     actuary shall be final and binding on all persons provided it was made in
     good faith. The benefits payable pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall be
     unfunded and the Executive will not be considered to have received a
     taxable economic benefit prior to the time at which benefits are actually
     payable hereunder. Accordingly, the Company or its affiliates shall not be
     required to segregate any of its assets for the benefit of the Executive
     and the Executive shall have only a contractual right against the Company
     for the benefits payable hereunder. The benefits payable pursuant to this
     Section 6(b) shall not be subject to alienation, transfer, assignment,
     garnishment, execution or levy of any kind, and any attempt to cause any
     benefits to be so subjected shall not be recognized and shall be null and
     void.

                  (vii)  "Final Average Earnings" shall mean the Executive's
     highest average of the sum of the Executive's monthly base salary and
     actual annual bonus (spread equally over the bonus period for which it is
     paid) during any consecutive 36 month period (or lesser period of actual
     employment) during the period of 60 complete months (or lesser period of
     actual employment) immediately preceding the Executive's termination of
     employment, but in no event less than the sum of the Executive's initial
     Base Salary and initial target bonus.

                  (viii) In the event that the Executive become entitled either
     to credit for additional years of service for purposes of his Supplemental
     Retirement Benefit pursuant to the provisions of Section (8)(d) or becomes
     eligible for a cash payment in respect of his Supplemental Retirement
     Benefit pursuant to the provisions of Section (8)(e), for purposes of
     calculating the Supplemental Retirement Benefit (in Section (8)(d)) or
     determining the amount of the cash payment (for purposes of Section
     (8)(e)), the Executive shall be deemed to have remained employed by the
     Company during the two year period (in the case of a termination governed
     by Section (8)(d)) or three year period (in the case of a termination
     governed by Section (8)(e)) following termination of employment; and the
     Executive shall be deemed to have earned compensation ratably over such
     period equal, in the aggregate, to the amount of severance payments payable
     to the Executive calculated by reference to the Executive's Base Salary and
     annual bonus.

          (c)     VACATIONS. The Executive shall be entitled to an annual paid
vacation in accordance with the Company's policy applicable to senior
executives, but in no event less than four weeks per year (as prorated for
partial years), which vacation may be taken at such times as the Executive
elects with due regard to the needs of the Company.

          (d)     PERQUISITES AND FRINGE BENEFITS. The Company shall provide to
the Executive, at the Company's cost, all perquisites and fringe benefits which
other senior executives of the Company who report directly to the CEO are
generally entitled to receive, including without limitation, an automobile in
accordance with the Company's automobile policy applicable to senior executives.
To the extent that the Executive's permanent residence is outside of New York
and to the extent that the Executive becomes subject to New York

                                        6

City or New York State taxes because of temporary assignment or other
performance of his duties, the Company shall gross-up the Executive for tax
purposes so that he is in the same position as if he were not subject to such
taxes.

          (e)     BUSINESS AND ENTERTAINMENT EXPENSES. Upon presentation of
appropriate documentation, the Executive shall be reimbursed in accordance with
the Company's expense reimbursement policy for all reasonable and necessary
business and entertainment expenses incurred in connection with the performance
of his duties hereunder.

          (f)     RELOCATION. If the Company and the Executive agree that the
Executive will relocate to the vicinity of the Company's principal U.S.
headquarters, then the Executive shall be entitled to relocation benefits in a
manner consistent with the Company's relocation policy and such additions
thereto as mutually agreed to by the Executive and the Board (or a committee
thereof), including purchase of his current residence at the appraised value
(based on the average of three independent appraisals) by a relocation company
in accordance with its standard procedures and a relocation allowance in an
amount equal to one month's Base Salary. The Executive's right to have his
current residence purchased as described in the preceding sentence shall be
effective until September 1, 2004. In addition, the Company shall reimburse the
Executive for the reasonable cost of travel between the Executive's current
residence and the Company's principal U.S. headquarters and, prior to the
Executive's relocation, the Company shall provide suitable temporary housing for
the Executive's use when he is at the Company's principal U.S. headquarters plus
living expenses, as mutually agreed to by the Executive and the Board (or a
committee thereof). The Company shall gross up for tax purposes any deemed
income arising pursuant to the payment or benefits provided under this Section
6(g) (other than any profit resulting from any sale of the Executive's
residence), so that the economic benefit is the same to the Executive as if such
payment or benefits were provided on a non-taxable basis to the Executive. All
amounts payable under this Section 6(g) shall be subject to the Executive's
presentment to the Company of appropriate documentation.

          (g)     FINANCIAL COUNSELING AND TAX PREPARATION. The Company shall
reimburse executive for personal financial counseling and tax preparation fees
and expenses with a provider selected by the Executive, up to a maximum of US$
20,000 per year.

terminate on the first of the following to occur:

          (a)     DISABILITY. Upon written notice by the Company to the
Executive of termination due to Disability, while the Executive remains
Disabled. For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall be defined as the
inability of the Executive to have performed his material duties hereunder due
to a physical or mental injury, infirmity or incapacity for 180 days (including

<Page>

          (c)     CAUSE. Immediately upon written notice by the Company to the
Executive of a termination for Cause. "Cause" shall mean:

                  (i)    The Executive shall have been indicted for a felony
     other than one based on Limited Vicarious Liability, or

                  (ii)   The termination is evidenced by a resolution adopted in
     good faith by at least two-thirds of the members of the Board concluding
     that Executive:

                         (A)     intentionally and continually failed
          substantially to perform his reasonably assigned duties with the
          Company (other than a failure resulting from Executive's incapacity
          due to physical or mental illness or from the assignment to Executive
          of duties that would constitute Good Reason), which failure has
          continued for a period of at least 30 days after a written notice of
          demand for substantial performance, signed by a duly authorized member
          of the Board, has been delivered to Executive specifying the manner in
          which Executive has failed substantially to perform, or

                         (B)     intentionally engaged in conduct which is
          demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company; provided,
          however, that no termination of Executive's employment shall be for
          Cause as set forth in this subsection (B) until (1) there shall have
          been delivered to Executive a copy of a written notice, signed by a
          duly authorized member of the Board, stating that Executive was guilty
          of the conduct set forth in this subsection (B) and specifying the
          particulars thereof in detail, and (2) Executive shall have been
          provided an opportunity to be heard in person by the Board (with the
          assistance of Executive's counsel if Executive so desires).

                  (iii)  Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the
     contrary, if the Executive has been terminated ostensibly for Cause because
     he has been indicted for a felony (other than one involving Limited
     Vicarious Liability), and he is not convicted of, nor does he plead guilty
     or nolo contendere to, such felony or a lesser offense (based on the same
     operative facts), such termination shall be deemed to be a termination
     without Cause as of the date of the termination; provided, however, that,
     in the event that the Executive has been terminated ostensibly for Cause
     because he has been indicted for a felony (other than one involving Limited
     Vicarious Liability) (A) the Executive's ability to exercise outstanding
     stock options shall be suspended and stock options will only be forfeited
     in the event that the Executive is convicted of or pleads guilty or nolo
     contendere to a felony or a lesser offense and any vesting shall be
     suspended until a final determination in such proceeding is reached; (B)
     unvested restricted shares and deferred stock units shall only be forfeited
     in the event that the Executive is convicted of or pleads guilty or nolo
     contendere to a felony or a lesser offense and any vesting or distribution
     shall be suspended until a final determination in such proceeding is
     reached; (C) any cash payments shall be paid after a final determination in
     such proceeding is reached; and (D) the Company will pay the Executive an
     amount equal to the value of health and welfare benefits that would
     otherwise been provided to the Executive as a result of the termination, if
     any, after a final determination in such proceeding is reached. The

                                        8
<Page>

     Company shall gross up for tax purposes the amount paid pursuant to
     subsection (D) hereof, so that the economic benefit is the same to the
     Executive as if such payment or benefits were provided on a non-taxable
     basis to the Executive.

                  (iv)   For purposes of the foregoing, the term "Limited
     Vicarious Liability" shall mean any liability which is based on acts of the
     Company for which Executive is responsible solely as a result of his
     office(s) with the Company; provided that (A) he was not directly involved
     in such acts and either had no prior knowledge of such intended actions or,
     upon obtaining such knowledge, promptly acted reasonably and in good faith
     to attempt to prevent the acts causing such liability or (B) after
     consulting with the Company's outside counsel, he reasonably believed that
     no law was being violated by such acts.

          (d)     WITHOUT CAUSE. Upon written notice by the Company to the
Executive of an involuntary termination without Cause, other than for death or
Disability.

          (e)     GOOD REASON. Upon written notice by the Executive to the
Company of a termination for Good Reason, unless such events are corrected in
all material respects by the Company within 30 days following written
notification by the Executive to the Company that he intends to terminate his
employment hereunder for one of the reasons set forth below. "Good Reason" shall
mean, without the express written consent of the Executive, the occurrence of
any of the following events:

                  (i)    assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent
     in any material respect with the Executive's position (including titles and
     reporting relationships), authority, duties or responsibilities as
     contemplated by this Agreement, or any other action by the Company which
     results in a significant diminution in such position, authority, duties or
     responsibilities, or any other action by the Company which, in the opinion
     of the Executive's outside counsel, would cause him to violate his legal,
     ethical or professional obligations (after written notice of such opinion
     has been provided by the Executive to the Board and the Company has not
     cured such action within the 15 day period following such notice);

                  (ii)   any failure by the Company to comply with any of the
     material provisions regarding Executive's Base Salary, bonus, annual equity
     incentive, benefits and perquisites, retirement benefit, relocation, and
     other benefits and amounts payable to Executive under this Agreement;

                  (iii)  the Executive being required to relocate to a principal
     place of employment more than 60 miles from his principal place of
     employment with the Company once it is established;

                  (iv)   the delivery by the Company of a notice of non-renewal
     pursuant to Section 2 hereof;

                  (v)    any breach of the Company's representations set forth
     in Section 23 hereof which has a material adverse impact on the Company or

                                        9
<Page>

                  (vi)   any termination by the Executive during the 30-day
     period immediately following the fifteen-month anniversary of the date of
     any Change in Control.

          (f)     WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Upon 30 days' prior written notice by the
Executive to the Company of the Executive's voluntary termination of employment
without Good Reason (which the Company may, in its sole discretion, make
effective earlier than any notice date).

     8.   CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION. Any termination payments made and
benefits provided under this Agreement to the Executive shall be in lieu of any
termination or severance payments or benefits for which the Executive may be
eligible under any of the plans, policies or programs of the Company or its
affiliates. Subject to Section 9, the following amounts and benefits shall be
due to the Executive.

          (a)     DISABILITY. Upon such termination, the Company shall pay or
provide the Executive (i) any unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination
and any accrued vacation in accordance with Company policy; (ii) any unpaid
bonus earned with respect to any fiscal year ending on or preceding the date of
termination; (iii) reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses incurred through
the date of termination; and (iv) all other payments, benefits or fringe
benefits to which the Executive may be entitled under the terms of any
applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or fringe benefit plan or
program or grant or this Agreement (collectively, "Accrued Amounts").

          (b)     DEATH. In the event the Employment Term ends on account of the
Executive's death, the Executive's estate shall be entitled to any Accrued
Amounts.

          (c)     TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR WITHOUT GOOD REASON. If the
Executive's employment is terminated (i) by the Company for Cause, or (ii) by
the Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay to the Executive any
Accrued Amounts.

          (d)     TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR FOR GOOD REASON. If the
Executive's employment by the Company is terminated by the Company other than
for Cause (other than a termination for Disability) or by the Executive for Good
Reason, in addition to the acceleration provisions of Section 5(g), the Company
shall pay or provide the Executive with (i) Accrued Amounts; (ii) a pro-rata
portion of the Executive's annual bonus for the performance year in which the
Executive's termination occurs at the time that annual bonuses are paid to other
senior executives (determined by multiplying the amount the Executive would have
received had employment continued through the end of the performance year by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the performance
year of termination that the Executive is employed by the Company and the
denominator of which is 365); (iii) a lump sum in cash in an amount equal to the
product of (A) the sum of (1) the then Base Salary and (2) the then target
annual bonus or, if higher, the most recent annual bonus payment multiplied by
(B) two; (iv) two additional years of service for purposes of calculating his
Supplemental Retirement Benefit under Section 6(b) above, and (v) subject to the
Executive's continued copayment of premiums, continued participation for two
years in all health and welfare plans which cover the Executive (and eligible
dependents) upon the same terms and conditions (except for the requirements of
the

                                       10
<Page>

Executive's continued employment) in effect on the date of termination. In the
event the Executive obtains other employment that offers substantially similar
or improved benefits, as to any particular health or welfare plan, such
continuation of coverage by the Company for such similar or improved benefit
under such plan under this subsection shall immediately cease. To the extent
such coverage cannot be provided under the Company's health or welfare plans
without jeopardizing the tax status of such plans, for underwriting reasons
(e.g., disability benefits) or because of the tax impact on the Executive, the
Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to the amount the Executive has
to pay for comparable benefits (but in no event greater than two times the
amount the Company would have paid for such benefits on behalf of the Executive
if the benefits were provided to him as an employee) and gross-up for tax
purposes any deemed income arising pursuant to the payments or benefits provided
under this sentence, so that the economic benefit is the same to the Executive
as if such payment or benefits were provided on a non-taxable basis to the
Executive. The continuation of health benefits under this subsection shall
reduce and count against the Executive's rights under the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA").

          (e)     TERMINATION IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If, in
anticipation of or within the sixteen-month period immediately following the
occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive's employment by the Company is
terminated by the Company other than for Cause (other than a termination for
Disability) or by the Executive for Good Reason, in addition to the acceleration
provisions of Section 5(g) and Section 6(b)(iii), (i) the Company shall pay or
provide the Executive with (A) Accrued Amounts and (B) a cash lump sum payment
in an amount equal to the product of (1) the sum of (a) the then Base Salary and
(b) the then target annual bonus or, if higher, the most recent annual bonus
payment multiplied by (2) three, (ii) the Executive shall receive a lump sum
cash payment representing the present value of the increase in the Supplemental
Retirement Benefit that the Executive would have accrued under Section 6(b)
assuming he had been credited with an additional three years of service for
purposes of calculating such benefit (taking into account, as applicable, the
provisions of under Section 6(b)(viii)), and (iii) all of the Executive's then
outstanding equity awards shall be fully vested and any stock option then held
by the Executive shall remain exercisable for the remainder of its stated term.
The provision of the Accrued Amounts and cash payments described in clause (i)
of the preceding sentence shall be in lieu of the corresponding payments to
which the Executive would otherwise be entitled upon such termination pursuant
to Section 8(d)(i) and (iii) hereof and the payment under clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence shall be in lieu of any additional Supplemental Retirement
Benefit the Executive would otherwise be entitled to under Section 8(d)(iv)
hereof.

     9.   RELEASE. Any and all amounts payable and benefits or additional rights
provided pursuant to this Agreement beyond Accrued Amounts shall only be payable
if the Executive delivers to the Company (and does not revoke) a general release
of all claims of the Executive occurring up to the release date in the form of
Exhibit B hereto (with such changes therein as may be necessary to make it valid
and encompassing under applicable law, the "Release") within 21 days of
presentation thereof by the Company to the Executive.

     10.  EXCISE TAX. In the event that the Executive becomes entitled to
payments and/or benefits which would constitute "parachute payments" within the
meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, the provisions of Exhibit C shall
apply.

                                       11
<Page>

     11.  (a)     CONFIDENTIALITY. The Executive agrees that he shall not,
directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise
communicate to any person, other than in the course of the Executive's assigned
duties and for the benefit of the Company, either during the period of the
Executive's employment or at any time thereafter, any nonpublic, proprietary or
confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company, any of its
subsidiaries, affiliated companies or businesses, which shall have been obtained
by the Executive during the Executive's employment by the Company. The foregoing
shall not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its
disclosure to the Executive; (ii) becomes known to the public subsequent to
disclosure to the Executive through no wrongful act of the Executive or any
representative of the Executive; or (iii) the Executive is required to disclose
by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that the Executive
provides the Company with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and
reasonably cooperates with the Company at its expense in seeking a protective
order or other appropriate protection of such information). Notwithstanding
clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, the Executive's obligation to
maintain such disclosed information in confidence shall not terminate where only
portions of the information are in the public domain.

          (b)     NONSOLICITATION. During the Executive's employment with the
Company and for the one year period thereafter, the Executive agrees that he
will not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person,
firm, corporation or other entity, knowingly solicit, aid or induce (i) any
managerial level employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates to leave such employment in order to accept employment with or render
services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity
unaffiliated with the Company or knowingly take any action to materially assist
or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying or
hiring any such employee or (ii) any customer of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates to purchase goods or services then sold by the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates from another person, firm,
corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other persons or entity in
identifying or soliciting any such customer.

          (c)     NONCOMPETITION. The Executive acknowledges that he performs
services of a unique nature for the Company that are irreplaceable, and that his
performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable
harm to the Company. Accordingly, during the Executive's employment hereunder
and for the one year period thereafter, the Executive agrees that the Executive
will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by
(whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, and
whether or not for compensation) or render services to any person, firm,
corporation or other entity, in whatever form, engaged in any business of the
same type as any business in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates is engaged on the date of termination or in which they have proposed,
on or prior to such date, to be engaged in on or after such date and in which
the Executive has been involved to any extent (other than de minimus) at any
time during the 12-month period ending with the date of termination, in any
locale of any country in which the Company conducts business. This Section 11(c)
shall not prevent the Executive from owning not more than one percent of the
total shares of all classes of stock outstanding of any publicly held entity
engaged in such business, nor will it restrict the Executive from rendering
services to charitable organizations, as such term is defined in Section 501(c)
of the Code.

                                       12
<Page>

          (d)     NONDISPARAGEMENT. Each of the Executive and the Company (for
purposes hereof, the Company shall mean only the executive officers and
directors thereof and not any other employees) agrees not to make any public
statements that disparage the other party, or in the case of the Company, its
respective affiliates, employees, officers, directors, products or services.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, statements made in the course of sworn testimony
in administrative, judicial or arbitral proceedings (including, without
limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) shall not be
subject to this Section 11(d).

          (e)     EQUITABLE RELIEF AND OTHER REMEDIES. The Executive
acknowledges and agrees that the Company's remedies at law for a breach or
threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section would be inadequate
and, in recognition of this fact, the Executive agrees that, in the event of
such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the
Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief
in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, a temporary or
permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

          (f)     REFORMATION. If it is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in any state that any restriction in this Section 11 is excessive
in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that
state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified
or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted
by the law of that state.

          (g)     SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in this
Section 11 shall survive the termination or expiration of the Executive's
employment with the Company and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.

     12.  ATTORNEY'S FEES.

          (a)     In the event of any dispute arising out of or under this
Agreement or the Executive's employment with the Company, if the arbitrator or
court of competent jurisdiction, whichever is hearing the matter, determines
that the Executive has prevailed on the issues in the arbitration or court
proceeding, as the case may be, the Company shall, upon presentment of
appropriate documentation, at the Executive's election, pay or reimburse the
Executive for all reasonable legal and other professional fees, costs of
arbitration and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith by
the Executive.

          (b)     The Company shall promptly pay the Executive's reasonable
costs of entering into this Agreement, including the reasonable fees and
expenses of his counsel and other professionals, up to a maximum of US $25,000
(based on such counsel's and professionals' standard hourly rates). The Company
shall gross up for tax purposes any deemed income to the Executive arising
pursuant to the payments provided under this Section 12(b), so that the economic
benefit is the same to the Executive as if such payments were provided on a
non-taxable basis to the Executive.

                                       13
<Page>

     13.  NO ASSIGNMENTS.

          (a)     This Agreement is personal to each of the parties hereto.
Except as provided in Section 13(b) below, no party may assign or delegate any
rights or obligations hereunder without first obtaining the written consent of
the other party hereto.

          (b)     The Company may assign this Agreement to any successor to all
or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company provided the
Company shall require such successor to expressly assume and agree to perform
this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would
be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

     14.  NOTICE. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other
communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given (i) on the date of delivery if delivered by hand,

of this Agreement and any form, award, plan or policy of the Company, the terms
of this Agreement shall control.

     16.  SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
severable and the invalidity of unenforceability of any provision shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

     17.  COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.

     18.  ARBITRATION. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection
with this Agreement, other than injunctive relief under Section 11(e) hereof or
the Release or damages for breach of Section 11, shall be settled exclusively by
arbitration, conducted before a single arbitrator in New York, New York in

J*A*M*S/ ENDISPUTE. The arbitrator will have the authority to permit discovery

the arbitrator.

     19.  INDEMNIFICATION. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Executive
and hold him harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law and under the
by-laws of the company against and in respect to any and all actions, suits,

     20.  LIABILITY INSURANCE. The Company shall cover the Executive under

liability exists, after the term of this Agreement in the same amount and to the
same extent as the Company covers its other officers and directors.

     21.  MISCELLANEOUS. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived
or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in
writing and signed by the Executive and such officer or director as may be
designated by the Board. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any
breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or
provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed
a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or

                                       15
<Page>

subsequent time. This Agreement together with all exhibits hereto sets forth the
entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter
contained herein. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express
or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either
party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. The validity,
interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflicts of law
principles.

     22.  FULL SETTLEMENT. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Company's
obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to
perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances,
including without limitation, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or
others, except to the extent any amounts are due the Company or its subsidiaries
or affiliates pursuant to a judgment against the Executive. In no event shall
the Executive be obliged to seek other employment or take any other action by
way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the
provisions of this Agreement, nor shall the amount of any payment hereunder be
reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by
another employer.

     23.  REPRESENTATIONS.

          (b)     The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that he
has the legal right to enter into this Agreement and to perform all of the

                                    EXHIBIT A

                         DEFINITION OF CHANGE IN CONTROL

     "Change in Control" shall mean the first to occur of any of the following
events:

          (a)     any "person" (as defined in Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), excluding for
this purpose, (i) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or (ii) any
employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or any
person or entity organized, appointed or established by the Company for or
pursuant to the terms of any such plan which acquires beneficial ownership of
voting securities of the Company, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly of
securities of the Company representing more than 30% of the combined voting
power of the Company's then outstanding securities; provided, however, that no
Change in Control will be deemed to have occurred as a result of a change in
ownership percentage resulting solely from an acquisition of securities by the
Company; or

          (b)     persons who, as of the Effective Date constitute the Board
(the "Incumbent Directors") cease for any reason, including without limitation,
as a result of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or similar transaction, to
constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a
director of the Company subsequent to the Effective Date shall be considered an
Incumbent Director if such person's election or nomination for election was
approved by a vote of at least 50% of the Incumbent Directors; but provided
further, that any such person whose initial assumption of office is in
connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the
election of members of the Board or other actual or threatened solicitation of
proxies or consents by or on behalf of a "person" (as defined in Section 13(d)
and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) other than the Board, including by reason of
agreement intended to avoid or settle any such actual or threatened contest or
solicitation, shall not be considered an Incumbent Director; or

          (c)     consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or
sale or other disposition of at least 80% of the assets of the Company (a
"Business Combination"), in each case, unless, following such Business
Combination, all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were

immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding

(including, without limitation, a company which, as a result of such
transaction, owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company's
assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the
same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business
Combination, of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; or

          (d)     approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

     4.   GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIM. Employee knowingly and voluntarily releases
and forever discharges Employer from any and all claims, causes of action,
demands, fees and liabilities of any kind whatsoever, whether known and unknown,
against Employer,

                                       B-1
<Page>

     - Any public policy, contract, tort, or common law; or

     - Any allegation for costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys'
     fees incurred in these matters.

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the sole matters to which
the Agreement and General Release do not apply are: (i) the Employee's rights of
indemnification and directors and officers liability insurance coverage to which
he was entitled immediately prior to DATE with regard to his service as an
officer of the Employer (including, without limitation, under Sections 19 and 20
of the Employment Agreement); (ii) the Employee's rights under any tax-qualified
pension or claims for accrued vested benefits under any other employee benefit
plan, policy or arrangement maintained by the Employer or under COBRA; (iii) the
Employee's rights

                                       B-2
<Page>

under the provisions of the Employment Agreement which are intended to survive
termination of employment; or (iv) the Employee's rights as a stockholder.

     5.   NO CLAIMS PERMITTED. Employee waives his right to file any charge or
complaint against Employer arising out of his employment with or separation from
Employer before any federal, state or local court or any state or local
administrative agency, except where such waivers are prohibited by law. This
Agreement, however, does not prevent Employee from filing a charge with the
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, any other federal government agency,
and/or any government agency concerning claims of discrimination, although
Employee waives his right to recover any damages or other relief in any claim or
suit brought by or through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any
other state or local agency on behalf of Employee under the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended, the
Americans with Disabilities Act, or any other federal or state discrimination
law, except where such waivers are prohibited by law.

     6.   AFFIRMATIONS. Employee affirms he has not filed, has not caused to be
filed, and is not presently a party to, any claim, complaint, or action against
Employer in any forum or form. Employee further affirms that he has been paid
and/or has received all compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions, and/or
benefits to which he may be entitled and no other compensation, wages, bonuses,
commissions and/or benefits are due to him, except as provided in Sections 5 and
8 of the Employment Agreement. Employee also affirms he has no known workplace
injuries.

     7.   CONFIDENTIALITY; COOPERATION; RETURN OF PROPERTY. Employee agrees not
to disclose any information regarding the circumstances surrounding the
cessation of his employment, or the existence, terms, or conditions of this
Agreement and General Release, to any person or entity whatsoever, including
without limitation, any members of the media (including, but not limited to,
print journalists, newspapers, radio, television, cable, satellite programs, or
Internet media) or any Internet web page or "chat room," or any other entity or
person, with the exception of Employee's spouse, accountant, tax advisor, and/or
attorneys. Notwithstanding the aforementioned provision, nothing herein shall
preclude, Employee from divulging any information to any agency of the federal,
state, or local government pursuant to an official request by such government
agency or pursuant to court order (provided that the Executive provides the
Employer with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and reasonably
cooperates with the Employer at its expense in seeking a protective order or
other appropriate protection of such information). Employee agrees to reasonably
cooperate with the Employer and its counsel in connection with any
investigation, administrative proceeding or litigation relating to any matter
that occurred during his employment in which he was involved or of which he has
knowledge. The Employer will reimburse the Employee for any reasonable
pre-approved out-of-pocket travel, delivery or similar expenses incurred in
providing such service to the Employer. Employee represents that he has returned
to the Employer all property belonging to the Employer, including but not
limited to any leased vehicle, laptop, cell phone, keys, access cards, phone
cards and credit cards.

     8.   GOVERNING LAW AND INTERPRETATION. This Agreement and General Release
shall be governed and conformed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York without regard to its conflict of laws provision. In the event Employee or
Employer

                                       B-3
<Page>

breaches any provision of this Agreement and General Release, Employee and
Employer affirm either may institute an action to specifically enforce any term
or terms of this Agreement and General Release. Should any provision of this
Agreement and General Release be declared illegal or unenforceable by any court
of competent jurisdiction and should the provision be incapable of being
modified to be enforceable, such provision shall immediately become null and
void, leaving the remainder of this Agreement and General Release in full force
and effect. Nothing herein, however, shall operate to void or nullify any
general release language contained in the Agreement and General Release.

     9.   NONADMISSION OF WRONGDOING. Employee agrees neither this Agreement and
General Release nor the furnishing of the consideration for this Release shall
be deemed or construed at any time for any purpose as an admission by Employer
of any liability or unlawful conduct of any kind.

     10.  AMENDMENT. This Agreement and General Release may not be modified,
altered or changed except upon express written consent of both parties wherein
specific reference is made to this Agreement and General Release.

     11.  ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and General Release sets forth the
entire agreement between the parties hereto and fully supersedes any prior
agreements or understandings between the parties; provided, however, that
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement and General Release, the provisions
in the Employment Agreement which are intended to survive termination of the
Employment Agreement, including but not limited to those contained in Section 11
thereof, shall survive and continue in full force and effect. Employee
acknowledges he has not relied on any representations, promises, or agreements
of any kind made to him in connection with his decision to accept this Agreement
and General Release.

     EMPLOYEE HAS BEEN ADVISED THAT HE HAS UP TO TWENTY-ONE (21) CALENDAR DAYS
TO REVIEW THIS AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE AND HAS BEEN ADVISED IN WRITING TO
CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY PRIOR TO EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND GENERAL
RELEASE.

     EMPLOYEE AGREES ANY MODIFICATIONS, MATERIAL OR OTHERWISE, MADE TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE DO NOT RESTART OR AFFECT IN ANY MANNER THE
ORIGINAL TWENTY-ONE (21) CALENDAR DAY CONSIDERATION PERIOD.

     HAVING ELECTED TO EXECUTE THIS AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE, TO FULFILL
THE PROMISES SET FORTH HEREIN, AND TO RECEIVE THE SUMS AND BENEFITS SET FORTH IN
THE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, EMPLOYEE FREELY AND KNOWINGLY, AND AFTER DUE
CONSIDERATION, ENTERS INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE INTENDING TO
WAIVE, SETTLE AND RELEASE ALL CLAIMS HE HAS OR MIGHT HAVE AGAINST EMPLOYER.

                                       B-4

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto knowingly and voluntarily executed
this Agreement and General Release as of the date set forth below:

                                              Tyco International Ltd.

MR. ERIC M. PILLMORE

                  Re: Agreement and General Release

Dear Eric:

     This letter confirms that on DATE, I personally sent to you the enclosed

the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. To this end, we advise you to

General Release.

                                   SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF

SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF
HUMAN RESOURCES' NAME
Tyco International Ltd.

                  Re: Agreement and General Release

Dear NAME,

     On __________ [date] I executed an Agreement and General Release between
Tyco International Ltd. and me. I was advised by Tyco International Ltd., in
writing, to consult with an attorney of my choosing, prior to executing this
Agreement and General Release.

     More than seven (7) calendar days have expired since I executed the
above-mentioned Agreement and General Release. I have at no time revoked my
acceptance or execution of that Agreement and General Release and hereby
reaffirm my acceptance of it. Therefore, in accordance with the terms of our
Agreement and General Release, I request payment of the monies and benefits
described in Sections 5 and 8 of the Employment Agreement.

                                   Regards,



                                   Signed:
                                          -----------------------------
                                          ERIC M. PILLMORE

<Page>

                                    EXHIBIT C

                               GROSS-UP PROVISIONS

          (a)     Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in
the event it shall be determined that the Executive shall become entitled to
payments and/or benefits provided by this Agreement or any other amounts in the
"nature of compensation" (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any
other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company or any affiliate, any
person whose actions result in a change of ownership or effective control of the
Company covered by Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code or any person affiliated with
the Company or such person) as a result of such change in ownership or effective
control of the Company (a "Payment") would be subject to the excise tax imposed
by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the
Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Excise Tax"), then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional
payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that after payment by the
Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect
to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any
interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon
the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment
equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments.

          (b)     Subject to the provisions of paragraph (c), all determinations
required to be made under this Exhibit C, including whether and when a Gross-Up
Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions
to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a nationally
recognized accounting firm (the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed
supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15 business
days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment,
or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. The Accounting Firm shall
be jointly selected by the Company and the Executive and shall not, during the
two years preceding the date of its selection, have acted in any way on behalf
of the Company or its affiliated companies. If the Company and the Executive
cannot agree on the firm to serve as the Accounting Firm, then the Company and
the Executive shall each select a nationally recognized accounting firm and
those two firms shall jointly select a nationally recognized accounting firm to
serve as the Accounting Firm. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall
be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to
this Exhibit C, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days
of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. If the Accounting Firm
determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall furnish the
Executive with a written opinion, based upon "substantial authority" (within the
meaning of Section 6230 of the Code), that failure to report the Excise Tax on
the Executive's applicable federal income tax return would not result in the
imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the
Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive, absent
manifest error. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section
4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made
by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent with the
calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company
exhausts its remedies pursuant to paragraph (c) hereof and the Executive
thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the

                                       C-1
<Page>

Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred
and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the
benefit of the Executive.

          (c)     The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim
by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment
by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon
as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive is
informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of
such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period
following the date on which he gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter
period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim
is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall:

                  (i)    give the Company any information reasonably requested
     by the Company relating to such claim,

                  (ii)   take such action in connection with contesting such
     claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
     including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect
     to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,

                  (iii)  cooperate with the Company in good faith in order
     effectively to contest such claim, and

                  (iv)   permit the Company to participate in any proceedings
     relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and
     pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and
     penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and
     hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or
     income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed
     as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.
     Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (c), the
     Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest
     and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative
     appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in
     respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct the
     Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim
     in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such
     contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court
     of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company
     shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the
     Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance
     the amount of such payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis, and
     shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis,
     from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with
     respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to
     any imputed income with respect to such advance; and further provided the
     Executive shall not be required by the Company to agree to any extension of
     the statute of limitations relating to the payment of taxes for the

                                       C-2
<Page>

     taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount
     is claimed to be due unless such extension is limited solely to such
     contested amount. Furthermore, the Company's control of the contest shall
     be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be
     payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest,
     as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service
     or any other taxing authority. Notwithstanding anything contained in this
     subsection (c) to the contrary, if at the time that the Company would
     otherwise advance an amount to the Executive with direction to pay any such
     claim and sue for a refund, the Executive is an executive officer of the
     Company and such advancement would be prohibited under applicable law, then
     the Company shall contest the claim in lieu of directing the Executive to
     pay such claim and sue for a refund.

          (d)     If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced
by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c) hereof, the Executive becomes entitled
to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject
to paragraph (f) hereof and subject to the Company's complying with the
requirements of paragraph (c) hereof) promptly pay to the Company the amount of
such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes
applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c) hereof, a determination is
made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such
claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to
contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after such
determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to
be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof,
the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

          (e)     If, pursuant to regulations issued under Section 280G or 4999
of the Code, the Company and the Executive were required to make a preliminary
determination of the amount of an excess parachute payment and thereafter a
redetermination of the Excise Tax is required under the applicable regulations,
the parties shall request the Accounting Firm to make such redetermination. If
as a result of such redetermination an additional Gross-Up Payment is required,
the amount thereof shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five
days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. If the
redetermination of the Excise Tax results in a reduction of the Excise Tax, the
Executive shall take such steps as the Company may reasonably direct in order to
obtain a refund of the excess Excise Tax paid. If the Company determines that
any suit or proceeding is necessary or advisable in order to obtain such refund,
the provisions of paragraph (c) hereof relating to the contesting of a claim
shall apply to the claim for such refund, including, without limitation, the
provisions concerning legal representation, cooperation by the Executive,
participation by the Company in the proceedings and indemnification by the
Company. Upon receipt of any such refund, the Executive shall (subject to
paragraph (f) hereof) promptly pay the amount of such refund to the Company. If
the amount of the income taxes otherwise payable by the Executive in respect of
the year in which the Executive makes such payment to the Company is reduced as
a result of such payment, the Executive shall, no later than the filing of his
income tax return in respect of such year, pay the amount of such tax benefit to
the Company (subject to paragraph (f) hereof). In the event there is a
subsequent redetermination of the Executive's income taxes resulting in a
reduction of such tax benefit, the Company shall, promptly after receipt of
notice of such reduction, pay to the Executive the amount of such reduction. If
the Company objects to the calculation or

                                       C-3
<Page>

recalculation of the tax benefit, as described in the preceding two sentences,
the Accounting Firm shall make the final determination of the appropriate
amount. The Executive shall not be obligated to pay to the Company the amount of
any further tax benefits that may be realized by him as a result of paying to
the Company the amount of the initial tax benefit.

          (f)     Each provision of this Exhibit C shall be interpreted in a
manner consistent with the overall intent of this Exhibit C, which is to make
the Executive whole, on an after-tax basis, from any imposition of (or claim to
impose) the Excise Tax, it being acknowledged and understood that the reversal
of any advance made by the Company pursuant to paragraph (c) hereof, or the
correction of any other type of overpayment of a Gross-Up Payment to the
Executive by the Company, may result in the Executive paying to the Company an
amount which is less than the related advance or other overpayment by the
Company. In particular and not by way of limitation, any other provision of this
Exhibit C notwithstanding, the Executive shall not in any event be obligated, in
connection with repaying any refund as described in paragraphs (d) and (e)
hereof, to pay the Company an amount greater than the net after-tax portion of
any advance or other type of Gross-Up Payment that he has retained or has
recovered as a refund from the applicable taxing authorities; but the Executive
shall not be relieved of his obligation hereunder to recover certain amounts as
a refund or credit.

Dear Eric:
