                         Election of lump sum due on or before March                  
                         30, 2000.  Applicable taxes and FICA deduc-                  
                         tions will be based on current W-4 elections                 
                         not to exceed total annual deduction amounts                 
                         reported on 1999 W-2.                                        
               On or about March 15, 2000, petitioner and GC&D executed a             
          separation agreement that reflected the final terms to which they           
          had agreed.  The separation agreement provided in pertinent part:           
               I.   Valuable Consideration                                            
                    In exchange for NDIRIKA’S entering into this                      
               Agreement, GC&D agrees to provide NDIRIKA with the                     
               following consideration:                                               
                    A.   GC&D will pay NDIRIKA severance pay in the                   
               form of salary continuation at the annualized rate of                  
               $93,750, less applicable taxes and FICA for a period of                
               twelve (12) months following the Separation Date (i.e.,                
               through March 15, 2001) as defined in Section II below                 
               (the “Severance Period”).  Such severance pay will be                  
               paid, at NDIRIKA’S election, either (i) in equal bi-                   
               monthly payments during the Severance Period, on dates                 
               corresponding with GC&D’s regular payroll dates, or                    
               (ii) in one lump sum payment on the first regular                      
               payroll date following the Separation Date.  Severance                 
               will be paid regardless of whether NDIRIKA accepts                     
               other employment during the Severance Period.                          
                  *       *       *       *       *       *       *                   
                    C.   NDIRIKA shall also receive a lump sum supple-                
               mental severance payment in the amount of $15,000, less                
               applicable taxes and FICA, on the first regular payroll                
               date following the Separation Date.                                    

                    D.   During the Severance Period, NDIRIKA may                     
               continue to use her office and telephone in furtherance                
               of her job search, and will continue to be allowed                     
               access to her firm voicemail and e-mail, provided                      
               NDIRIKA elects to receive her salary continuation                      
               severance pay under paragraph A above in equal bi-                     
               monthly payments, rather than in one lump sum payment.                 
               NDIRIKA will not be required to, nor should she, per-
