LOGICVISION, INC.

CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

          This Change of Control Severance Agreement (this Agreement) is made and entered into effective as of February 15, 2006 (the Effective Date), by and between [NAME OF INDIVIDUAL] (the Executive) and LogicVision, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company).  Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 1 below.

RECITALS

          A.          It is expected that the Company from time to time will consider the possibility of a Change of Control.  The Board of Directors of the Company (the Board) recognizes that such consideration can be a distraction to the Executive and can cause the Executive to consider alternative employment opportunities.

          B.          The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to provide the Executive with an incentive to continue his employment and to maximize the value of the Company upon a Change of Control for the benefit of its shareholders.

          C.          In recognition of Executives service with the Company during which time Executives leadership has been fundamental to the Companys development and in order to provide the Executive with enhanced financial security and sufficient encouragement to remain with the Company notwithstanding the possibility of a Change of Control, the Board believes that it is imperative to provide the Executive with certain severance benefits upon the Executives termination of employment in connection with a Change of Control.

AGREEMENT

          In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and the continued employment of the Executive by the Company, the parties agree as follows:

                       (b)          Change of Control.  Change of Control shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

                                      (i)          the approval by the shareholders of the Company of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the closing of a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Companys assets, other than a sale or disposition to a subsidiary of the Company or to an entity, the voting securities of which are owned by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Companys voting securities immediately prior to such sale or disposition;

                                      (ii)          a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent directly or indirectly (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or
