Exhibit 10.3

EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

This Executive Severance Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into, effective as of January 1, 2010, by and between Craig A. Sheldon (“Executive”) and Cantel Medical Corp. (“Company”).

Background

A.            The Company considers the establishment and maintenance of a sound and vital management to be essential to protecting and enhancing the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.  The Company believes that, to attract and retain experienced and valuable key executive employees, it is important and prudent to provide such executives with fair compensation should their employment be terminated under certain circumstances, including but not limited to change in control situations.

B.            The Company wishes to encourage the Executive to devote his full time and attention to the performance of his management responsibilities and to assist the Board of Directors and other management employees in evaluating business options and pursuing the best interests of the Company’s shareholders without being influenced by the uncertainty of his own employment situation.

In consideration of the premises, the Executive’s employment by the Company on an at-will basis, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Executive and the Company agree as follows:

Agreement

1.             Defined Terms.  Throughout this Agreement, when the first letter of a word (or the first letter of each word in a phrase) is capitalized, the word or phrase shall have the meaning specified in Appendix A (beginning on page 13)

2.             Term.  This initial term of this Agreement shall commence as of January 1, 2010, and shall continue through July 31, 2011; provided, however, that beginning on August 1, 2010, and on the first day of each following August, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended by one year, unless either the Company or the Executive shall have provided notice to the other at least six (6) months before such date that the term shall not be extended.  Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, (i) if a Change in Control occurs during the term of this Agreement, such term (other than with respect to the provisions of Section 4) shall not end before the second anniversary of the Change in Control; provided, however, this sentence shall apply only to the first Change of Control while this Agreement is in effect; and (ii) termination of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder on account of the Executive’s Termination of Employment during the Term.

3.             Termination of Employment; Resignation of Officer and Director Positions.  The Executive is an at-will employee.  The Company may Terminate the Executive’s Employment at any time, for any reason whatsoever or for no reason, subject to its payment obligations under this Section and, if applicable, Section 4 or 5.  The Executive may voluntarily Terminate his Employment at any time by providing at least twenty (20) days’ prior notice to the

Company.  Regardless of whether the Executive’s Termination of Employment is voluntary or involuntary, the Executive shall resign from any and all of his director positions and offices with the Company and each Related Employer, effective as of his Termination Date.  Upon Termination of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to the following, in addition to any benefits payable under Section 4 or 5:

(a)           Any earned but unpaid base salary through his Termination Date, plus any accrued and unused paid time off (PTO) due to the Executive under the Company’s PTO program through his Termination Date, which amounts shall be paid to the Executive not later than the payment date for the payroll period next following his Termination Date.

(b)           Provided that the Executive applies for reimbursement in accordance with the Company’s established reimbursement procedures (within the period required by such procedures but under no circumstances later than ninety (90) days after his Termination Date), the Company shall pay the Executive any reimbursements to which he is entitled under such procedures not later than the payment date for the payroll period next following the date on which the Executive applies for reimbursement.

(c)           Any benefits (other than severance) payable to the Executive under any of the Company’s cash or equity incentive compensation plans and employee benefit plans or programs (collectively, “Benefit Plans”), to the extent not provided for herein, shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of those plans or programs. To the extent that the terms herein conflict with the terms of the Benefit Plans, the terms herein shall be deemed to supersede those of the Benefit Plans.

4.             Non-Change of Control Severance and Other Benefits.

(a)           Subject to (i) the Executive’s timely filing of a duly executed Release in accordance with Section 18, (ii) such Release becoming effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms not later than sixty (60) days after the Executive’s Termination of Employment, (iii) the provisions of this Section 4, and (iv) the limitations provided in Section 9, the Company shall provide the Executive with the payments and benefits set forth in this Section, if at any time during the Term other than during a Change in Control Coverage Period either (i) the Company Terminates the Executive’s Employment (other than a termination for Cause, Unacceptable Performance, Disability, or death pursuant to Section 7), or (ii) the Executive voluntarily Terminates his Employment for Adequate Reason pursuant to Section 8.  Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Subsection, the Executive shall not be entitled to benefits pursuant to this Section 4, if he is entitled to benefits pursuant to Section 5.

(b)           As soon as administratively feasible (and not more than ten (10) days) after the Company’s receipt of the duly executed Release, and the Release becoming effective and irrevocable, the Company shall pay to the Executive a single lump sum payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Monthly Base Salary Rate as of his Termination Date multiplied by (ii) 12.  For purposes of determining the Executive’s Monthly Base Salary Rate pursuant to the preceding sentence, any reduction to the Executive’s salary during the six-month period preceding his Termination of Employment shall be disregarded.

2

(c)           If the Termination Date of an Executive occurs subsequent to the last day of a Fiscal Year for which the Executive has not been paid his Bonus, then the Executive shall be entitled to his full Bonus for such Fiscal Year to the extent otherwise earned under the terms of the Bonus Plan for such Fiscal Year (as if the Executive’s employment had not been Terminated). Such amount shall be paid to the Executive not later than seventy five (75) days following the close of such Fiscal Year.  Amounts payable under this Subparagraph (c) will be deemed payments attributable to Executive’s employment prior to or on the Termination Date and not as severance.

(d)           The Company shall pay to the Executive a pro-rata Bonus for the Fiscal Year in which the Termination Date occurs, determined by multiplying (i) the amount of the Executive’s full Bonus for such Fiscal Year to the extent otherwise earned under the terms of the Bonus Plan for such Fiscal Year as in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of full or partial months since the end of the prior Fiscal Year in which the Executive has been employed by the Company, and (B) the denominator of which is 12.  Such amount shall be paid to the Executive not later than seventy five (75) days following the close of such Fiscal Year.  Notwithstanding the forgoing, if no Bonus Plan has been finalized (i.e., approved by the Compensation Committee and disseminated to the Executive) for such Fiscal Year either prior to the commencement of such Fiscal Year or within three months following the commencement of such Fiscal Year, then the Bonus for such Fiscal Year payable under this Subparagraph (d) will be determined in accordance with the first sentence of Section 5(b)(2) (as if the pro rata Bonus payment under that Section was required). Amounts payable under this Subparagraph (d) will be deemed payments attributable to Executive’s employment prior to or on the Termination Date and not as severance.

(e)           In the event such termination occurs prior to the full vesting of stock options and restricted stock held by the participant (i.e., the options becoming exercisable in their entirety and the restricted stock ceasing to have any risks of forfeiture), then, effective as of the Termination Date, the vesting of the annual installment of such options and restricted stock that would be due to vest on the first vesting date following the Termination Date shall accelerate on a pro rata basis based on the number of days elapsed from the prior vesting date of such options and restricted stock to and including the Termination Date.

(f)            If the Executive is eligible for and properly elects Continuation Coverage for himself and/or one or more qualified beneficiaries (as defined in ERISA Section 607(3)) under the Company’s medical plan, the Company shall pay the premiums for such coverage (or reimburse the Participant for such premiums) for the twelve (12) month period following the Executive’s Termination of Employment (or such shorter period during which such person is eligible for Continuation Coverage).  Such payments or reimbursements shall constitute taxable income of the Executive to the extent required by law.

(g)           The Company shall pay the cost of outplacement services incurred by the Executive during the twelve (12) month period following his Termination of Employment and provided by a firm of the Executives’ choice, up to a total of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000).  Payment for outplacement expenses shall be made by the Company promptly following the Company’s receipt of appropriate invoices documenting such expenses.

3

(h)           Notwithstanding the preceding provisions or any other provisions herein to the contrary, if the Executive’s Employment is Terminated during a Change in Control Coverage Period, either by the Executive for Adequate Reason or Good Reason or by the Company for any reason other than for Cause or death, then the Executive shall be entitled to the payments and benefits that would have been provided to him pursuant to Section 5 if the Company had Terminated his Employment without Cause during a Change in Control Coverage Period (reduced by any payments or benefits provided to him pursuant to this Section 4).  In such a case, the Executive shall not be required to execute an additional Release, and any Release requirement specified in Section 5 shall be deemed satisfied on the Change in Control Date.

(i)            Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) the Company shall promptly deliver written notice to the Executive advising him of the application of such Code Section and, to the extent required by such Code Section, payments otherwise required by this Section shall be delayed to the earliest date on which such payments are permitted.  Interest shall accrue on unpaid amounts delayed under this subparagraph at the prime rate from time to time in effect at the JP Morgan Chase Bank of New York or any successor bank commencing from the date that such amounts would otherwise have been due under the applicable provision.

5.             Change of Control Severance and Other Benefits.

(a)           Subject to (i) the Executive’s timely filing of a duly executed Release in accordance with Section 18, (ii) such Release becoming effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms not later than sixty (60) days after the Executive’s Termination of Employment, (iii) the provisions of this Section 5, and (iv) the limitations provided in Section 9, the Company shall provide the Executive with the payments and benefits set forth in this Section, if during a Change in Control Coverage Period, (A) the Company Terminates the Executive’s Employment (other than a termination for Cause or death pursuant to Section 7), or (B) the Executive voluntarily Terminates his Employment for Adequate Reason or Good Reason pursuant to Section 8.  Amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the limitations and reimbursement expressly provided in this Agreement.

(b)           As soon as administratively feasible (and not more than five (5) business days) after the Company’s receipt of the duly executed Release, and the Release becoming effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms, the Company shall pay to the Executive a single lump sum payment in an amount equal to the sum of the following:

(1)           the product of (i) two (2) times (ii) the sum of (A) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary, at the greater of the rate in effect on the Change in Control Date or the Termination Date (disregarding any reduction in the rate of the Executive’s salary during the six-month period immediately preceding his Termination of Employment), plus (B) the greater of (I) 45% of the amount determined under clause (A) or (II) the average of the annual Bonuses paid to the Executive for the two Fiscal Years preceding the year in which the Executive’s Employment is Terminated.  Amounts payable under this Subparagraph (b)(1) will deemed severance.

4

(2)           a pro-rata Bonus amount, determined by multiplying (i) the greater of (A) 45% of the amount determined under clause (A) of the preceding Subparagraph (b)(1) or (B) the average of the annual Bonuses paid to the Executive for the two years Fiscal Years preceding the year in which the Executive’s Employment is Terminated, by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of full or partial months since the end of the prior Fiscal Year in which the Executive has been employed by the Company, and (B) the denominator of which is 12.  However, if the Executive did not receive his annual Bonus under a Bonus Plan for such prior Fiscal Year, then the numerator shall be the number of full or partial months since the beginning of the prior Fiscal Year in which the Executive has been employed by the Company. Amounts payable under this Subparagraph (b)(2) will be deemed payments attributable to Executive’s employment prior to or on the Termination Date and not as severance.

(c)           If the Executive is eligible for and properly elects Continuation Coverage for himself and/or one or more qualified beneficiaries (as defined in ERISA Section 607(3)) under the Company’s medical plan, the Company shall pay the premiums for such coverage (or reimburse the Participant for such premiums) for the twenty-four (24) month period following the Executive’s Termination of Employment (or such shorter period during which such person is eligible for Continuation Coverage).  Such payments or reimbursements shall constitute taxable income of the Participant to the extent required by law.

(d)           For the twenty-four (24) month period following the Executive’s Termination of Employment, the Company shall continue to provide term life insurance coverage substantially the same as that provided for the Executive immediately before his Termination Date (if any).

(e)           The Company shall pay the cost of outplacement services incurred by the Executive during the twelve (12) month period following his Termination of Employment and provided by a firm of the Executives’ choice, up to a total of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000).  Payment for outplacement expenses shall be paid directly by the Company promptly following the Company’s receipt of appropriate invoices documenting such expenses.

(f)            To the extent that coverage or benefits under Subsection (c), (d), or (e) result in taxable income to the Executive, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for any taxes payable on account of such coverage, so that the Executive is in the same after-tax position in which he would have been had such reimbursements not been taxable.  The Company shall pay the reimbursement required by the preceding sentence as soon as administratively practicable after the Executive demonstrates payment of the related taxes and not later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such taxes are paid.

(g)           Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), the Company shall promptly deliver written notice to the Executive advising him of the application of such Code Section and to the extent required by such Code Section, payments otherwise required by this Section shall be delayed to the earliest date on which such payments are permitted. Interest shall accrue on unpaid amounts delayed under this subparagraph at the prime rate from time to

5

time in effect at the JP Morgan Chase Bank of New York or any successor bank commencing from the date that such amounts would otherwise have been due under the applicable provision.

6.             Provisions Relating to Parachute Payments.  If payments and benefits to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, would result in total Parachute Payments to the Executive with a value equal to or greater than one hundred percent (100%) of the Parachute Payment Limit, the Executive may, in his sole discretion, elect to reduce the amount payable pursuant to Section 5(b) so that the value of all Parachute Payments to the Executive, whether or not made pursuant to this Agreement, is equal to the Parachute Payment Limit minus One Dollar ($1.00).

7.             Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, Unacceptable Performance, Disability, or Death.

(a)           The Company may cause a Termination of the Executive’s Employment for Disability at any time.  To do so, the Board must provide the Executive with a notice of termination specifying the Termination Date and the circumstances constituting Disability.

(b)           Company may cause a Termination of the Executive’s Employment for Unacceptable Performance at any time during the Term other than during a Change in Control Coverage Period. To do so, the Board must provide the Executive with a notice of termination specifying the Termination Date and the specific act(s) or failure(s) constituting Unacceptable Performance.  If the Board’s notice identifies an act or failure constituting Unacceptable Performance, it shall be accompanied by a resolution duly adopted by not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the entire membership of the Board and, if the act of failure  is subject to correction under the definition of Unacceptable Performance and related definitions in this Agreement, the notice shall also specify the period during which the act or failure must be corrected, which in no event shall be less than thirty (30) days.  If the Board reasonably determines that the Executive has not corrected the act or failure in all material respects within the required correction period, the Board must then provide a second notice of termination stating the reasons for the termination and the Termination Date, and the Executive’s Employment shall terminate on such date.

(c)             The Company may cause a Termination of the Executive’s Employment for Cause at any time.  To do so, the Board must provide the Executive with a notice of termination specifying the Termination Date and the specific act(s) or failure(s) constituting Cause.  If the Board’s notice identifies an act or failure constituting Cause, it shall be accompanied by a resolution duly adopted by not less than three-quarters (¾) of the entire membership of the Board (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with legal counsel, to be heard by the Board), finding, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, that one or more of the events of Cause has occurred and specifying the details thereof.  If the act or failure constituting Cause is subject to correction under the definition of Cause and related definitions in this Agreement, the notice shall also specify the period during which the act or failure must be corrected, which in no event shall be less than thirty (30) days.  If the Board acting in good faith determines that the Executive has not corrected the act or failure in all material respects within the required correction period, the Board must then provide a

6

second notice of termination stating the reasons for the termination and the Termination Date, and the Executive’s Employment shall terminate on such date.

(d)             If the Executive dies before Termination of Employment, his Employment shall terminate automatically on the date of his death.

(e)             In the case of a Termination of Employment for Cause or Unacceptable Performance pursuant to this Section, the Executive shall not be entitled to benefits or payments pursuant to Section 4 or 5; provided, however, if the Company causes a Termination of the Executive’s Employment for Unacceptable Performance and the Termination Date of such termination occurs during a Change in Control Coverage Period, then such termination shall be deemed a Termination of the Executive’s Employment “other than a termination for Cause” under Section 5(a) and thereby obligate the Company to provide the Executive with the payments and benefits set forth in Section 5.

(f)              In the case of a Termination of Employment due to Disability or death pursuant to this Section, the Company shall continue to pay to the Executive, if living, or other person or persons as the Executive may from time to time designate in writing as the beneficiary of such payments, the Base Salary in effect at the time which such Disability or death occurred, during the three-month period following such Disability or death.  Except for such Base Salary, the Company shall have no further obligation pursuant to this Section.

8.             Resignation by Executive for Adequate Reason or Good Reason.  If an event of Adequate Reason or Good Reason occurs during the Term, the Executive may, at any time within the ninety (90) day period following such event, provide the Company with a notice of termination specifying the event of Adequate Reason or Good Reason and notifying the Company of his intention to Terminate Employment upon the Company’s failure to correct the event of Adequate Reason or Good Reason within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Executive’s notice of termination.  If the Company fails to correct the event of Adequate Reason or Good Reason and provide the Executive with notice of such correction within such thirty (30) day period, the Executive’s Employment shall terminate as of the end of such period, and the Executive shall be entitled to benefits as provided in Section 3 and Section 4 or 5, as applicable.

9.             Limitation on Payments and Benefits.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a)           No payment (other than a payment pursuant to Section 3) shall be made pursuant to this Agreement until the Release has become effective according to its terms.

(b)           If the Executive intentionally and materially breaches any provision of the Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement, and fails to cure such breach (if curable) within thirty (30) days, he shall promptly repay to the Company any and all severance amounts previously paid to him pursuant to Section 4 and/or 5, and he shall have no further rights pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)           Payments hereunder shall be limited to the extent provided in Section 6.

7

10.           No Obligation to Mitigate.  The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefits provided for under Section 4 or 5 by seeking other employment or otherwise, and the amount of any payment or benefits provided for under Section 4 or 5 shall not be reduced by any payments or benefits received by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer after the Termination Date, or otherwise; provided, however, that the amount payable under Section 4 or 5 shall be reduced by the amount of any severance, termination, or notice pay (or any other similar amounts) required by law to be paid to the Executive by the Company or its subsidiaries and by any salary or other amounts paid to the Executive during any notice period that the Company or its subsidiaries is required by law to provide.

11.           Withholding and Taxes.  The Company may withhold from any payment made hereunder (i) any taxes that the Company reasonably determines are required to be withheld under federal, state, or local tax laws or regulations, and (ii) any other amounts that the Company is authorized to withhold.  Except for employment taxes that are the obligation of the Company, the Executive shall pay all federal, state, local, and other taxes (including, without limitation, interest, fines, and penalties) imposed on him under applicable law by virtue of or relating to the payments and/or benefits contemplated by this Agreement, subject to any reimbursement provisions of this Agreement.

12.           Indemnification.  The Executive shall continue to be entitled to any rights to insurance and indemnification under the Company’s or a Related Employer’s directors and officers liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”), Certificate of Incorporation, and Bylaws, as in effect before the earlier of the Executive’s Termination of Employment or a Change in Control (or rights to insurance and indemnification that are substantially the same thereto), with respect to any claims relating to the period before his Termination Date.  Additionally, any and all D&O Insurance policies obtained by the Company or a Related Employer following the Termination Date that are “claims made” polices shall cover the Executive to the same extent as other former officers of the Company.

13.           Default in Payment.  Any payment not made within ten (10) days after it is due in accordance with this Agreement shall thereafter bear interest, compounded quarterly, at 5% above the prime rate from time to time in effect at the JP Morgan Chase Bank of New York or any successor bank.

14.           Effect on Other Plans, Agreements, and Benefits.  Except to the extent expressly set forth herein, any benefit or compensation to which the Executive is entitled under any agreement between the Executive and the Company or any of its subsidiaries or under any plan maintained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in which the Executive participates or participated shall not be modified or lessened in any way, but shall be payable according to the terms of the applicable plan or agreement. The terms of this Agreement shall supersede and terminate any prior change in control and/or severance agreement, and the provisions of any other agreement providing benefits following a change in control or termination of employment, entered into between the Executive and the Company or any subsidiary thereof.  Notwithstanding the above, any severance benefits received by the Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be in lieu of any severance benefits to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled under any general severance policy maintained by the Company or the relevant subsidiary for its

8

management personnel or under any employment contract between the Executive and the Company or any subsidiary thereof.  Any and all employment agreements between the Company and the Executive, inclusive of provisions that in accordance with the terms of such agreements survive termination, are hereby terminated and void.

15.           Unsecured Obligation.  All rights of the Executive or any beneficiary of the Executive who succeeds to the Executive’s rights to payments or benefits under this Agreement shall at all times be entirely unfunded and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of the Company or payment of any amounts due hereunder.  Neither the Executive nor any such beneficiary shall have any interest in or rights against any specific assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and the Executive and any such beneficiary shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

16.           Prohibition Against Assignment.  The Executive may not assign, pledge, anticipate, or transfer any benefit or amount payable hereunder (other than benefits payable upon or following his death), and any attempt to assign, pledge, anticipate, or transfer such and benefit or amount hereunder, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be null and void.

17.           Successors.

(a)           The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.  Failure of the Company to obtain such agreement before the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a material breach of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined, and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid that executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Subsection or otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law.

(b)           This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees.  If the Executive should die while any amounts would still be payable to him hereunder if he had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Executive’s devisee, legatee, or other designee or, if there be no such designee, to the Executive’s estate.

18.           Release.  In consideration of the Company’s promises and covenants and the performance thereof, the Executive agrees that the Company’s payment obligations under Sections 4 and 5 shall be conditioned on the Executive’s release of the Company and all other persons named in the Release from any and all causes of causes of action that the Executive has or may have against the Company or any such person before the effective date of the Release, other than a cause based on a breach hereof.  The Release shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.  For the Release to be effective, the Executive (or his representative or agent) must have provided a signed version of the Release to the Company and such Release

9

shall have become effective and irrevocable by its terms within sixty (60) days after the Executive’s Termination of Employment.

19.           Disputes.

(a)           In any judicial or other proceedings in which the Executive’s right to, or the amount of, benefits hereunder is disputed, the ultimate burden of proof shall be on the Company.

(b)           Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Little Falls, New Jersey by three arbitrators, one of whom shall be appointed by the Company, one of whom shall be appointed by the Executive, and the third of whom shall be appointed by the first two arbitrators.  If either the Company or the Executive fails to appoint an arbitrator within 20 days of a request in writing by the other to do so, or if the first two arbitrators cannot agree on the appointment of a third arbitrator within 20 days after the second arbitrator is designated, then such arbitrator shall be appointed by the Chief Judge of the United States District Court located in the city of Newark, New Jersey, or upon his failure to act, by the American Arbitration Association so as to enable the arbitrators to render an award within 90 days after the three arbitrators have been appointed.  Following the selection of arbitrators as set forth above, the arbitration shall be conducted promptly and expeditiously and in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.  Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Executive shall be entitled to seek specific performance of his right to be paid during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement.

(c)           The Company shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable legal fees and legal expenses, incurred by the Executive in connection with any judicial or other proceeding, including any arbitration proceeding, to enforce this Agreement or to construe, determine, or defend the validity of this Agreement.  The Company shall pay (or reimburse the Executive) for any such expense as soon as administratively practicable after the Executive demonstrates evidence that such expense have been incurred and not later than thirty (30) days following the Executive’s submission of such expenses to the Company with a request for reimbursement.

20.           Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties regarding the transactions contemplated herein and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements, or understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, any letters, agreements, or understandings between the Executive and the Company or any subsidiary thereof before the date hereof.  By entering into this Severance Agreement, the Executive waives any right that he may otherwise have to participate in any generally applicable severance plan of the Company or any Related Employer.

10

(f)            Rights and Waivers.  All rights and remedies of the parties hereto are separate and cumulative, and no one of them, whether exercised or not, shall be deemed to exclude, limit, or prejudice any other right or remedy that either of the parties hereto may have.  No party to this Agreement shall be deemed to waive any right or remedy under this Agreement, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by such party.  No delay or omission on the part of either party in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy.  A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or a waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion.

(g)           Notices.  All notices hereunder shall be in writing.  A notice by the Company shall be deemed to have been given only when delivered in person to the Executive or mailed by first class United States Mail, Return Receipt Requested, or sent by overnight delivery (or the fastest delivery available, if overnight delivery is not available) by means of an internationally recognized delivery service, to the Executive at his most recent address on the records of the Company.  A notice by the Executive to the Company shall be deemed to have been given only when delivered in person to the Company’s General Counsel or mailed by first class United States Mail, Return Receipt Requested, or sent by overnight delivery (or the fastest delivery available, if overnight delivery is not available) by means of an internationally recognized delivery service, to the Company’s General Counsel at the Company’s headquarters.

(h)           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument, and may be delivered by facsimile or pdf.
