February 4, 2003
Tony Dolanski
4 Roselawn Lane
Malvern, PA 19355
Dear Tony,
The Board of Directors and I recognize you as a valuable contributor to Internet
Capital Group. We place a high priority upon retaining your services to ICG and
in rewarding you for your commitment, dedication, and hard work. I am,
therefore, very pleased to communicate a severance package that will be made
available to you should you be terminated other than for cause prior to December
31, 2005. A summary of these severance benefits is listed below.
- SEVERANCE PAY - ICG will pay you at the date of termination of
employment a lump sum payment equal to 12 months of base
salary plus target bonus at the rate existing at termination
of employment.
- ANNUAL BONUS - ICG will pay you at the same time, under the
same terms and conditions as other employees, a pro-rated
bonus for service through your termination date, based on your
individual performance and ICG's performance for that period
as determined by the Board of Directors.
- EMPLOYEE BENEFITS - ICG will continue to provide you and your
family medical and dental insurance at the same percent of
premium payment existing at the time of termination until the
earlier of (A) 12 months after termination of employment; or
(B) your eligibility for any of these benefits under another
employer's or spouse's employer's plan.
- OUTPLACEMENT - ICG will provide you career counseling until
the earlier of (A) 12 months after termination of employment;
or (B) your employment with a subsequent employer.
- EQUITY - ICG Management will recommend to the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors that your stock options
and restricted stock be subject to the better of the
following: (A) credit for an additional 12 months service
(compared to your actual service with ICG); or (B) application
of the terms of the relevant option or restricted stock
agreement. Such options shall be exercisable after your
termination of employment to the earlier of 1) twenty-four
months or 2) 12 months after the ICG share price is maintained
at $10 for 20 trading days.
- CHANGE IN CONTROL - In the event of an involuntary termination
caused by a change in control as defined in the summary plan
description, you will receive 100% acceleration of all equity
grants. The term to exercise any option grant shall be
extended to the remaining term of the option.
<PAGE>
- RELEASE - Availability of these severance benefits will be
conditioned upon your executing, and not rescinding or
breaching, upon termination of employment a release of
liability in a form acceptable to ICG. If you elect not to
sign a release of liability, you will be eligible for the
standard severance package applicable at that time. That
package currently consists of one month's pay plus two week's
pay per year of completed service and paid medical and dental
insurance for you and your family for the standard severance
period
My belief is that the current ICG team, including you, is outstanding and will
drive our success against our business plan. This success will provide
meaningful financial rewards to our shareholders and employees.
Sincerely,
/s/ Walter Buckley
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
