We entered into executive retention agreement dated as of October 2, 2006 with J. Donald Oldham, President – Telecom Decisioning Services. The retention agreement provides that, in the event that within two (2) years following a change of control (as defined in the retention agreement), the executive’s employment is terminated without cause, or the executive terminates his employment for good reason (as defined in the retention agreement), then the executive shall be entitled to the payment of an amount equal to the sum of (a) one half times the executive’s base salary plus (b) an amount equal to one times the executive’s prior year’s bonus. The executive is also entitled to acceleration of vesting of any unvested shares under any option granted to the executive, and to the payment of specified benefit continuation costs for a period of six months.
