Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Contracts and Change in Control Arrangements

We generally do not enter into long-term employment agreements with our executive officers. We generally do not enter into severance agreements or similar agreements providing for payments upon termination of employment or change-in-control. Such agreements, when entered into, are negotiated on a case-by-case basis. We have not entered into any severance agreements or termination agreements with any of the named executive officers other than with Peter Cohen, pursuant to an agreement negotiated with him in connection with his commencement of employment in 2006.

Effective November 2006, we entered into an employment agreement with Peter Cohen in connection with his employment by Private as its Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Cohen’s employment was terminable upon not more than 30 days notice. We agreed to pay him a salary of $200,000 per annum plus certain relocation costs of up to EUR 24,000. Effective September 2007 his base salary of $200,000 per annum was increased to EUR 200,000 per annum. Mr. Cohen was also eligible to receive an annual performance bonus, upon the achievement of specified goals in each fiscal year, commencing in 2007, based upon the amount of increase in annual operating income after 2006. The agreement provided for an annual bonus of between EUR 20,000 – 100,000,

depending upon the amount of increase in operating income in the applicable fiscal year. No bonus was paid or accrued for 2007 or 2008, as the financial targets were not achieved. Mr. Cohen’s employment agreement provided that if he is terminated by Private other than for cause, he is entitled to a severance payment equal to one month of salary if terminated prior to October 30, 2007, and three months of salary if terminated at any time thereafter. Mr. Cohen’s employment terminated on May 21, 2009, and he was paid three months of severance in accordance with his employment agreement with us.
