"Partial disability" shall mean that the Executive is able to perform, to some extent, on behalf of the Company, the particular services in which the Company specializes, and which the Executive previously performed for the Company, but that the Executive is unable, mentally or physically, to devote the same amount of time to such services as was devoted prior to the occurrence of such sickness or accident.

"Normal monthly salary" shall mean the salary which the Executive is being paid by the Company per month as of the commencement date of the period of disability, as specified hereinabove or as determined by the CEO and the Company Board of Directors pursuant to the terms hereof.

During a single period of total disability of the Executive, the Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company, the Executive's normal monthly salary for the shorter of first three (3) months of disability or until any disability insurance policy available through the Executive’s employment begins to pay benefits. If the single period of disability should continue beyond three (3) months, the Executive shall receive only such amount as the Executive shall be entitled to receive under disability insurance coverage on the Executive, if any.

(iii) Partial Disability

During a period of partial disability of the Executive, the Executive shall receive an amount of compensation computed as follows:

That portion of the Executive's normal monthly basic compensation which bears the same ratio to the Executive's normal monthly basic compensation as the amount of time which the Executive is able to devote to the usual performance of services on behalf of the Company during such period bears to the total time the Executive devoted to performing such services prior to the commencement date of the single period of disability, and such amount shall be calculated by multiplying the Executive’s basic compensation by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the percentage of normal services that the Executive is able to perform and the denominator which shall be the total services that the Executive is able to perform absent the partial disability.

(V) Broken Periods of Disability

A period of disability may be continuous or broken. If broken into partial periods of disability which are separated by intervening periods of work, there shall be aggregated together all of such successive partial periods of disability except any period prior to the time when any single period of work extends for three months or longer; and such aggregated periods of disability shall be treated as a single period in determining the amount of disability compensation to which an Executive shall be entitled under any provision of this Section.

8.6 Termination Due to Disability

If and when the period of total or partial disability of the Executive totals twelve (12) months, the Executive's employment with the Company shall automatically terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the disabled Executive and the Company agree, the disabled Executive may thereafter be employed by the Company in another management function upon such terms as may be mutually agreeable.

The commencement date of a period of disability, whether it’s a continuous period or the aggregate of successive partial periods, shall be the first day on which the Executive is disabled.

8.8 Dispute Regarding Existence of Disability

Any dispute regarding the existence, extent or continuance of the disability shall be resolved by the determination of a majority of three (3) competent physicians, one (1) of whom shall be selected by the Company, one (1) of whom shall be selected by the Executive and the third (3rd) of whom shall be selected by the other two (2) physicians so selected.

Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then prevailing commercial arbitration rules of the State of Louisiana but the arbitration shall be in front of an arbitrator, with the following exceptions if in conflict: (a) one arbitrator shall be chosen by Harold Halman and one arbitrator chosen by the Company; (b) each party to the arbitration will pay its pro rata share of the expenses and fees of the arbitrator(s), together with other expenses of the arbitration incurred or approved by the arbitrator(s); and (c) arbitration may proceed in the absence of any party if written notice of the proceedings has been given to such party. The parties agree to abide by all decisions and awards rendered in such proceedings. Such decisions and awards rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and conclusive and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof as a basis of judgment and of the issuance of execution for its collection. All such controversies, claims or disputes shall be settled in this manner in lieu of any action at law or equity; provided however, that nothing in this subsection shall be construed as precluding the Company from bringing an action for injunctive relief or other equitable relief or relief under the Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement. The arbitrator shall not have the right to award punitive damages, consequential damages, lost profits or speculative damages to either party. The parties shall keep confidential the existence of the claim, controversy or disputes from third parties (other than the arbitrator), and the determination thereof, unless otherwise required by law or necessary for the business of the Company. The arbitrator(s) shall be required to follow applicable law.

IF FOR ANY REASON THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE BECOMES NOT APPLICABLE, THEN EACH PARTY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AS TO ANY ISSUE RELATING HERETO IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER MATTER INVOLVING THE PARTIES HERETO.
