Company previously granted or issued Bergmann an aggregate of 1 ,350,000 shares of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value per share ("Common Stock"), in consideration of Bergmann's service as an officer and director of the Company (the "Original Stock"). 50,000, shares of the Original Stock were granted to Bergmann in 2002 and are fully vested ("2002 Shares"); 1,000,000 shares of the Original Stock ("2004 Shares'') were granted to Bergmann pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement dated as of June 6, 2004 ("Restricted Stock Agreement"); and 100,000 shares of the Original Stock were granted to Bergmann in April 2005 ("2005 Shares") and were subject to contractual transfer restrictions similar to the 2004 Shares.

In consideration of the payments and covenants set forth in this Agreement, the Company and Bergmann desire to enter into this Agreement to provide for their mutual separation and settlement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time during the Payment Period (as defined in Section 5(f) below) request that Bergmann re-execute this Agreement and reaffirm the perpetuity of the Release set forth in Section 4(a) and, furthermore, the Company may condition any unpaid component of the Total Compensation upon Bergmann's compliance with such request, provided the Company is not itself in default or is engaged in any conduct after the date above that gives rise to any claim by Bergmann.
