Good  Cause.   \"Good  Cause\"  shall  mean any of the following actions\n          taken  by  the Company or any subsidiary that employs the Executive: a\n          breach  of  this Agreement, assignment of the Executive to duties that\n          are  inconsistent  with  his  status  as  a  senior executive or which\n          represent  a  diminution  of his status in the Company, a reduction in\n          Executive's Base Salary, except in connection with an across-the-board\n          salary  reduction  for all executives, a failure by the Company to pay\n          any  of  Executive's compensation in accordance with Company policy, a\n          reduction  in  or  elimination  of  any  of  the benefits described on\n          Exhibit  A  or  otherwise  granted to Executive, the relocation of the\n          Executive  to  a  location  more  than  40  miles from Reston Virginia\n          without Executive's consent, change of Executive's title, a failure to\n          comply  with  the obligations of the Company under Section 1.2 hereof,\n          or  the  failure  of  a successor to the Company to confirm in writing\n          within  5  days of its succession its obligation to assume and perform\n          all obligations of this Agreement.\n\n5.5.

Retirement.   \"Retirement\"  shall mean the voluntary retirement of the\n          Executive  from  the Company (a) at or after age 62 or (b) at any time\n          after  the  combination  of  the  Executive's age and service with the\n          company or any predecessor or subsidiary equals or exceeds 75 years.\n\n6.       Change of Control\n\n6.1.      In  the  event  a  Change  of  Control  occurs,  and  (a)  the Company\n          terminates  Executive's  employment  without Cause pursuant to Section\n          3.2.1.3  hereof,  or  (b)  the Executive terminates his employment for\n          Good  Cause pursuant to Section 3.2.2 within three (3) months prior to\n          or  within  three  years  following, the effective date of a Change of\n          Control  of  the  Company,  then  Executive,  in addition to all other\n          amounts  payable  hereunder,  will  be  entitled to a lump sum payment\n          equivalent  to  the  Executive's Annual Base Compensation in effect at\n          the  time  of  the  Change  of  Control,  less standard deductions and\n          withholdings  (the  \"Change  of  Control Benefit Package\"). No payment\n          under 6.1 b above shall be made until the transaction causing a Change\n          of Control has occurred.\n\n\n6.2.      In  the  event  that the Change of Control Benefit Package or any part\n          thereof  provided  for  in  this  Agreement,  or  any amount otherwise\n          payable to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise, constitute\n          \"parachute  payments\"  within  the  meaning  of  Section  280G  of the\n          Internal  Revenue  Code  of  1986, as amended (the \"Code\") and will be\n          subject  to  the  excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then\n          Executive  shall  receive (i) a payment from the Company sufficient to\n          pay  such  excise tax, and (ii) an additional payment from the Company\n          sufficient  to  pay the income, employment, excise and any other taxes\n          arising from the payments made by the Company to or for the benefit of\n          Executive  pursuant  to Section 6.1 above and this Section 6.2 so that\n          Executive  shall  be fully reimbursed for any excise tax and any taxes\n          associated  with  the  payments to reimburse Executive for such excise\n          tax.  Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, the\n          determination  of  Executive's  excise  tax  liability  and the amount\n          required to be paid under this Section 6.2 shall be made in writing by\n          a  nationally  recognized accounting firm satisfactory to both parties\n          (the  \"Accountants\").  In  the  event  that the excise tax incurred by\n          Executive  is determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be greater\n          or  lesser  than  the  amount  so  determined  by the Accountants, the\n          Company  and Executive agree to promptly make such additional payment,\n          including  interest  and  any tax penalties, to the other party as the\n          Accountants reasonably determine is appropriate to ensure that the net\n          economic  effect  to Executive under this Section 6.2, on an after-tax\n          basis,  is  as  if  the  Code Section 4999 excise tax did not apply to\n          Executive.  For  purposes  of making the calculations required by this\n          Section  6.2  the  Accountants  may  make  reasonable  assumptions and\n          approximations   concerning   applicable   taxes   and   may  rely  on\n          interpretations  of  the  Code  for  which  there  is  a  \"substantial\n          authority\"  tax  reporting  position.  The Company and Executive shall\n          furnish   to  the  Accountants  such  information  and  documents  the\n          Accountants  may  reasonably  request in order to make a determination\n          under  this  Section  6.2.  The  Company  shall  bear  all  costs  the\n          Accountants  may  reasonably incur in connection with any calculations\n          contemplated by this Section\n          6.2.\n\n6.3.      Upon  the  occurrence  of a Change of Control, all unvested options or\n          other  stock  based incentives that have been awarded to the Executive\n          shall   become  immediately  vested  so  that  all  such  options  and\n          incentives  shall  become  fully  vested  under the terms of the plans\n          under which they were issued.\n\n7.       Non-Competition And Confidentiality\n\n7.1.      Non-Competition.   During   Executive's   employment  by  the  Company\n          hereunder  and  during  the  period  during  for  which  Executive  is\n          receiving  consulting  payments  from  the Company pursuant to Section\n          4.3.1 herein:\n\n7.1.1.         Executive  will  not  directly  compete  with the business of the\n               Company   or  any  of  its  subsidiaries  or  any  non-controlled\n               affiliate  against  which  it  is  precluded  from competing (the\n               \"Company  or  its  Affiliates\") so as to cause the Company or its\n               Affiliates  to  lose material revenue from any client contract or\n               pending  client  proposal  which  is  in existence on the date of\n               termination  of  Executive's\n\n\n               employment.   For   purposes  of  this  Section  7.1.1, \"material\n               revenue\"  shall  be deemed to mean revenue that  is more than .1%\n               of  the  revenue of the entity against which improper competition\n               is alleged.\n\n7.1.2.         Executive  will  not directly or indirectly employ or solicit for\n               employment  any  person  whom  he  knows  to  be a supervisory or\n               management  employee of the Company or its Affiliates without the\n               written consent of the employer.\n\n7.2.      In consideration of the covenant described in Section 7.1, the Company\n          agrees  to  pay  the Executive the amount of $700,000 (increased by 4%\n          per  annum for each 12-month period or portion thereof that transpires\n          between  the  effective  date  of  this  Agreement  and  the  date  of\n          termination),  which  shall  be  payable  in full within 5 days of the\n          delivery  of the Release described in Section 4.3 hereof. In the event\n          of  a  breach  of  such  covenant  by  the  Executive, damages, if any\n          recoverable by the Company, shall be limited to an amount equal to the\n          amount of the above covenant payment times a fraction the numerator of\n          which  shall  be  the number of months remaining to be performed under\n          the Consulting Agreement described in Section 4.3.1 hereof at the time\n          of the breach, and the denominator of which shall be 30.\n\n8.       Confidential Information.\n\n8.1.      Executive  agrees that as a condition of employment and the consulting\n          arrangement  described  in Section 4.3.1, he will execute and abide by\n          the Company's Proprietary Information &amp; Inventions Agreement, attached\n          hereto as Exhibit C.\n\n9.       Remedies\n\n9.1.      Injunctive   Relief.  Executive  acknowledges  and   agrees  that  the\n          covenants  and  obligations  contained in Sections 7.1 and 8 relate to\n          special,  unique and extraordinary matters and that a violation of any\n          of  the  terms  of  such  sections  will cause the Company irreparable\n          injury  for  which adequate remedy at law is not available. Therefore,\n          Executive  agrees that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction,\n          restraining  order,  or  other  equitable  relief  from  any  court of\n          competent  jurisdiction,  restraining  Executive  from  committing any\n          violation  of  the covenants and obligations set forth in Sections 7.1\n          and 8 hereof.\n\n9.2.      Remedies  Cumulative.  The Company's rights and remedies under Section\n          7.1  hereof are cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and\n          remedies the Company may have at law or in equity.\n\n9.3.      Any  and  all  disputes arising under this Agreement or concerning its\n          formation,  implementation  or  interpretation,  or  rights hereunder,\n          shall  be  resolved through binding arbitration under the rules of the\n          American  Arbitration  Association (\"AAA\").  Such arbitration shall be\n          conducted  in  Washington,  D.C.,  or  at  such  other location as the\n          parties  shall  mutually  approve.   The  single  arbitrator  shall be\n          selected  by  the parties from the AAA's list of approved arbitrators;\n          provided that if no arbitrator is selected within 15\n\n\n          days  from  the date arbitration is first requested hereunder, the AAA\n          shall  appoint the arbitrator.  No arbitrator shall have had any prior\n          connection  or  dealing  of  any  nature  with  either of the parties.\n          Subject to the obligation of the Company under paragraph 12 of Exhibit\n          A  hereto,  the  parties  shall  each  bear their own expenses and the\n          Company shall pay the entire cost of the arbitrator and any AAA costs.\n          The  decision  of  the  arbitrator  shall  be final and binding on the\n          parties  hereto,  and  shall not be subject to review or appeal before\n          any  court  or  tribunal;  provided,  that the award of the arbitrator\n          shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.\n\n10.      Miscellaneous\n\n10.1.         Indemnification.  The  Company agrees at all times during the term\n          of this Agreement and the consulting period described in Section 4.3.1\n          hereof,  and  thereafter, to indemnify, defend and hold the Executive,\n          his heirs, estate and legal representatives harmless from, any and all\n          claims,  liabilities, demands, allegations, causes of action, or other\n          threats,  related  to  or  in  any  way  arising  out of, the services\n          provided  by  the  Executive under this Agreement or at the request of\n          the  Company;  provided,  however, that this indemnification shall not\n          apply  to  acts or omissions that are the result of conduct that would\n          preclude  the  Executive  from receiving indemnification under Section\n          145  of  the  Delaware  Corporation Laws Annotated in effect as of the\n          date  hereof,  subject  to such future changes as may be beneficial to\n          the  Executive.  Upon  receipt  of notice of the assertion of any such\n          claim, liability, demand, allegation, cause of action or other threat,\n          the  Company  shall  pay  the  Executive  the cost of his defense by a\n          counsel acceptable to Executive, and shall be responsible for the full\n          payment  of  any  judgement  including damages or penalties, including\n          punitive  damages  or  penalties, that may be assessed or payable as a\n          result of a settlement to which the Company and the Executive consent,\n          including  the  deductible portion of any loss covered by Director and\n          Officer Liability Insurance.

Compliance  with Company Policies.

No  waiver  of  any section or provision of this Agreement\n          will be valid unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party\n          against  whom  enforcement of the waiver is sought.  The waiver by the\n          Company  of any section or provision of this Agreement shall not apply\n          to  any  subsequent  breach of this Agreement.

Severability.  The  provisions  of  this  Agreement  shall  be  deemed\n          severable,  and if any part of any provision is held illegal, void, or\n          invalid  under  applicable  law  such  provision may be changed to the\n          extent  reasonably  necessary  to  make  the provision, as so changed,\n          legal,  valid  and binding.

At\nall  times  during  my  employment  and  thereafter,  I  will  hold in strictest\nconfidence  and  will  not  disclose,  use,  lecture  upon or publish any of the\nCompany's  Proprietary  Information  (defined below), except as such disclosure,\nuse  or  publication may be required in connection with my work for the Company,\nor unless an officer of the Company expressly authorizes such in writing. I will\nobtain   Company's   written   approval  before  publishing  or  submitting  for\npublication any material (written, verbal, or otherwise) that relates to my work\nat  Company and incorporates any Proprietary Information. I hereby assign to the\nCompany  any  rights  I  may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and\nrecognize  that  all  Proprietary  Information shall be the sole property of the\nCompany and its assigns.\n\n                       1.2   Proprietary   Information.  The  term  \"Proprietary\nInformation\"  shall  mean any and all confidential and\/or proprietary knowledge,\ndata  or information of the Company that is not generally known to the public or\npublicly  disclosed  by  the Company. By way of illustration but not limitation,\n\"Proprietary  Information\"  includes  (a) trade secrets, inventions, mask works,\nideas, processes, formulas, source and object codes, data, programs, other works\nof  authorship,  know-how,  improvements, discoveries, developments, designs and\ntechniques  (hereinafter  collectively  referred  to  as  \"Inventions\"); and (b)\ninformation  regarding  plans for research, development, new products, marketing\nand  selling,  business  plans,  budgets  and  unpublished financial statements,\nlicenses,  prices  and  costs,  suppliers  and  customers;  and  (c) information\nregarding  the  skills  and  compensation  of  other  employees  of the Company.\nNotwithstanding  the  foregoing,  it is understood that, at all such times, I am\nfree to use information which is generally known in the trade or industry, which\nis  not  gained  as  result  of  a  breach of this Agreement, and my own, skill,\nknowledge,  know-how  and  experience  to whatever extent and in whichever way I\nwish.\n\n                       1.3  Third  Party Information. I understand, in addition,\nthat  the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties\nconfidential or proprietary information (\"Third Party Information\") subject to a\nduty  on  the Company's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information\nand to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the\n\n\nterm of my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the\nstrictest  confidence  in accordance with the terms and conditions of disclosure\nto  the  Company,  and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company personnel\nwho need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company)\nor  use,  except  in  connection  with  my  work  for  the  Company, Third Party\nInformation unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Company in writing.\n\n                       1.4 No Improper Use of Information of Prior Employers and\nOthers.

I  will  use in the performance of my duties only\ninformation  which  is  generally  known  and  used by persons with training and\nexperience  comparable  to  my own, which is common knowledge in the industry or\notherwise  legally  in  the  public  domain,  or  which is otherwise provided or\ndeveloped by the Company.\n\n            2.

Inventions, if any, patented or\nunpatented,  which  I  made  prior to the commencement of my employment with the\nCompany  are excluded from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible\nuncertainty,  I  have  set  forth  on Exhibit C-2 (Previous Inventions) attached\nhereto  a  complete  list  of  all Inventions that I have, alone or jointly with\nothers,  conceived,  developed or reduced to practice or caused to be conceived,\ndeveloped or reduced to practice prior to the commencement of my employment with\nthe  Company, that I consider to be my property or the property of third parties\nand  that I wish to have excluded from the scope of this Agreement (collectively\nreferred  to  as  \"Prior Inventions\"). If disclosure of any such Prior Invention\nwould cause me to violate any prior confidentiality agreement, I understand that\nI  am not to list such Prior Inventions in Exhibit C-2 but am only to disclose a\ncursory  name  for  each  such invention, a listing of the party(ies) to whom it\nbelongs  and  the  fact  that full disclosure as to such inventions has not been\nmade for that reason. A space is provided on Exhibit C-2 for such purpose. If no\nsuch disclosure is attached, I represent that there are no Prior Inventions.\n                       \n                        2.3  Assignment  of  Inventions.

Inventions\nassigned to the Company, or to a third party as directed by the Company pursuant\nto this Section 2, are hereinafter referred to as \"Company Inventions\".\n\n\n                       2.4  Obligation  to  Keep  Company  Informed.  During the\nperiod  of  my  employment  and  for  six  (6)  months  after  termination of my\nemployment  with  the Company, I will promptly disclose to the Company fully and\nin  writing  all  Inventions  authored,  conceived or reduced to practice by me,\neither  alone  or  jointly  with  others, during the period of my employment. In\naddition,  I  will  promptly  disclose  to  the Company in confidence all patent\napplications  filed  by  me  or  on my behalf within a year after termination of\nemployment.\n\n                       2.5 Government or Third Party. I also agree to assign all\nmy  right,  title  and  interest in and to any particular Company Invention to a\nthird  party, including without limitation the United States, as directed by the\nCompany.\n\n                       2.6 Works for Hire. I acknowledge that all original works\nof  authorship  which  are made by me (solely or jointly with others) within the\nscope  of  my  employment and which are protectable by copyright are \"works made\nfor hire\", pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101).\n\n                        2.7 Enforcement of Proprietary Rights. I will assist the\nCompany  in  every  proper  way to obtain, and from time to time enforce, United\nStates  and foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Company Inventions in any and\nall countries. To that end I will execute, verify and deliver such documents and\nperform  such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Company may\nreasonably  request  for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing,\nsustaining  and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In\naddition,  I  will  execute,  verify and deliver assignments of such Proprietary\nRights to the Company or its designee.  My obligation to assist the Company with\nrespect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Company Inventions in any and all\ncountries  shall  continue  beyond  the  termination  of  my employment, but the\nCompany  shall  compensate  me at a reasonable rate after my termination for the\ntime actually spent by me at the Company's request on such assistance.\n\n            3.  Records.  I  agree  to  keep  and  maintain adequate and current\nrecords (in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and in any other form that may\nbe  required  by the Company) of all Proprietary Information developed by me and\nall  Inventions  made  by  me during the period of my employment at the Company,\nwhich  records shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Company\nat all times.\n\n            4.  Additional Activities. I agree further that for the period of my\nemployment  by the Company and for one (l) year after the date of termination of\nmy  employment  by  the  Company I will not induce any management or supervisory\nemployee  of  the  Company to leave the employ of the Company. 5. No Conflicting\nObligation.  I  represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement\nand as an Executive of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to\nkeep in confidence information acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to\nmy  employment  by  the Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not\nenter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith.\n\n            6.  Return  of  Company  Documents.  When  I leave the employ of the\nCompany,  I  will deliver to the Company any and all drawings, notes, memoranda,\nspecifications, devices,\n\n\nformulas,  and  documents,  together  with  all  copies  thereof,  and any other\nmaterial   containing   or  disclosing  any  Company  Inventions,  Third   Party\nInformation  or Proprietary Information of the Company. I further agree that any\nproperty  situated on the Company's premises and owned by the Company, including\ndisks  and  other storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject\nto  inspection by Company personnel at any time with or without notice. Prior to\nleaving,  I  will  cooperate  with  the  Company  in  completing and signing the\nCompany's termination statement.\n\n            7.  Legal  and  Equitable Remedies. Because my services are personal\nand  unique  and  because  I  may  have access to and become acquainted with the\nProprietary  Information  of  the  Company,  the Company shall have the right to\nenforce  this  Agreement  and  any  of  its  provisions  by injunction, specific\nperformance or other equitable relief, without bond and without prejudice to any\nother  rights  and  remedies  that  the  Company  may  have for a breach of this\nAgreement,  provided  that  such  enforcement  shall  be  in accordance with the\nprocedures set forth in Section 10.1 below\n\n            8.
