7.2  AGREEMENTS OF THE EXECUTIVE

In consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid or provided to the
Executive by the Employer under this Agreement, the Executive covenants as
follows:

(a)  Confidentiality.

     (1)  During and following the Employment Period, the Executive will hold in
          confidence the Confidential Information and will not disclose it to
          any person except with the specific prior written consent of the
          Employer or except as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of
          this Agreement.

     (2)  Any trade secrets of the Employer will be entitled to all of the
          protections and benefits under California law and any other applicable
          law. If any information that the Employer deems to be a trade secret
          is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a trade secret
          for purposes of this Agreement, such information will, nevertheless,
          be considered Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement.
          The Executive hereby waives any requirement that the Employer submit
          proof of the economic value of any trade secret or post a bond or
          other security.

     (3)  None of the foregoing obligation and restrictions applies to any part
          of the Confidential Information that the Executive demonstrates was or
          became generally available to the public other than as a result of a
          disclosure by the Executive.

     (4)  The Executive will not remove from the Employer's premises (except to
          the extent such removal is for purposes of the performance of the
          Executive's duties at home or while traveling, or except as otherwise
          specifically authorized by the Employer) any document, record,
          notebook, plan, model, component, device, or computer software or
          code, whether embodied in a disk or in any other form (collectively,
          the "Proprietary Items"). The Executive recognized that, as between
          the Employer and the Executive, all of the Proprietary Items, whether
          or not developed by the Executive, are the exclusive property of the
          Employer. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, or upon
          the request of the Employer during the Employment Period, the
          Executive will return to the Employer all of the Proprietary Items in
          the Executive's possession or subject to the Executive's control, and
          the Executive shall not retain any copies, abstracts, sketches, or
          other physical embodiment of any of the Proprietary Items.

                                       7

<PAGE>   8
7.3  DISPUTES OR CONTROVERSIES

The Executive recognizes that should a dispute or controversy arising from or
relating to this Agreement be submitted for adjudication to any court,
arbitration panel, or other third party, the preservation of the secrecy of
Confidential Information may be jeopardized. All pleadings, documents,
testimony, and records relating to any such adjudication will be maintained in
secrecy and will be available for inspection by the Employer, the Executive, and
their respective attorneys and experts, who will agree, in advance and in
writing, to receive and maintain all such information in secrecy, except as may
be limited by them in writing.

8.   NON-COMPETITION AND NON-INTERFERENCE

8.1  ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY THE EXECUTIVE

this Agreement are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary, and
intellectual character; (b) the Employer's business is international in scope
and its products are marketed throughout the United States and internationally;
(c) the Employer competes with other businesses that are or could be located in
any part of the United States or internationally; (d) the Buyer has required
that the Executive make the covenants set forth in this Section 8 as a condition
to the Buyer's purchase of the Executive's stock in the Employer; and (e) the
provisions of this Section 8 are reasonable and necessary to protect the
Employer's business.

8.2  COVENANTS OF THE EXECUTIVE

In consideration of the acknowledgments by the Executive, and in consideration
of the compensation and benefits to be paid or provided to the Executive by the
Employer, the Executive covenants that he will not, directly or indirectly:

(a)  during the Employment Period, except in the course of his employment
     hereunder, and during the Post-Employment Period, engage or invest in, own,
     manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership,
     management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated
     with, or in any manner connected with, lend the Executive's name or any
     similar name to, lend Executive's credit to or render services or advice
     to, any business whose products or activities compete in whole or in part
     with the products or activities of the Employer anywhere within the United
     States or any other jurisdiction in which the Employer then conducts
     business; provided, however, that the Executive may purchase or otherwise
     acquire up to (but not more than) 4.99 percent of any class of securities
     of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of
     such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or regional
     securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934; provided, further, that this provision
     shall not apply to any interest or investment in any business owned by
     Executive as of January 1, 1999 (as "Owned Company") as long as (i) any
     activity associated with, or business time of Executive devoted to, such
     investment

                                       8
<PAGE>   9
     does not materially interfere with Executive's duties hereunder, (ii) no
     confidential information belonging to, or regarding, Employer is used by
     Executive or such business, or disclosed to any employee, officer or
     director of such business, to the benefit of such business or the material
     detriment of Employer, and (iii) the nature of the business conducted by
     such business does not materially change from that conducted by such
     business as of January 1, 1999, which change would cause such business to
     compete more directly and materially with Employer;

(b)  whether for the Executive's own account or for the account of any other
     person, at any time during the Employment Period and the Post-Employment
     Period, solicit business of the same or similar type being carried on by
     the Employer, from any person known by the Executive to be a customer of
     the Employer, whether or not the Executive had personal contact with such
     person during and by reason of the Executive's employment with the
     Employer;

(c)  whether for the Executive's own account or the account of any other person
     (i) at any time during the Employment Period and the Post-Employment
     Period, solicit, employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent
     contractor, or otherwise, any person who is or was an employee of the
     Employer at any time during the employment Period or in any manner induce
     or attempt to induce any employee of the Employer to terminate his
     employment with the Employer; or (ii) at any time during the Employment
     Period and for three years thereafter, interfere with the Employer's
     relationship with any person, including any person who at any time during
     the Employment Period was an employee, contractor, supplier, or customer of
     the Employer; or

(d)  at any time during or after the Employment Period, disparage the Employer
     or any if it shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents.

For purposes of this Section 8.2, the term "Post-Employment Period" means the
two year period beginning on the date of termination of the Executive's
employment with the Employer.

If any covenant in this Section 8.2 is held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or
against public policy, such covenant will be considered to be divisible with
respect to scope, time, and geographic area, and such lesser scope, time, or
geographic area, or all of them, as a court of competent jurisdiction may
determine to be reasonable, not arbitrary, and not against public policy, will
be effective, binding, and enforceable against the Executive.

The period of time applicable to any covenant in this Section 8.2 will be
extended by the duration of any violation by the Executive of such covenant.

The Executive will, while the covenant under this Section 8.2 is in effect, give
notice to the Employer, within ten days after accepting any other employment, of
the identity of the Executive's employer. The Buyer of the Employer may notify
such employer that the Executive is bound by this Agreement and, at the
Employer's election, furnish such employer with a copy of this Agreement or
relevant portions thereof.

                                       9
<PAGE>   10
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section
8 shall not apply in the event Executive terminates this Agreement for good
reason or if this agreement is terminated by Employer for any reason other than
good cause.

9.    INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

9.1.  The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless, and in any action, suit or
      proceeding, and defend the Executive against all expenses, costs,
      liabilities and losses (including attorneys fees, judgments and fines, and
      amounts paid or to be paid in any settlement) (collectively, "Indemnified
      Amounts") reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in connection
      with the Executive's service as a director or officer of the Employer or
      any affiliate (including without limitation phoneXchange, Inc., and in the
      case of phoneXchange, Inc., as a controlling shareholder) to the full
      extent permitted by the By-Laws of the Employer as in effect on the date
      of this Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law (or, in the
      event the Employer is reincorporated in a jurisdiction other than
      Delaware, the general corporation law of such jurisdiction (the "GCL").
      The defense of Executive pursuant to this provision shall be by counsel
      reasonably satisfactory to Executive, and the fees and expenses of such
      counsel shall be paid by Employer as incurred.

9.2.  A determination that indemnification with respect to any claims by the
      Executive pursuant to this Section 9 is proper shall be made by
      independent legal counsel selected by the Board of Directors of the
      Employer and set forth in a written opinion furnished by such counsel to
      the Board of Directors, the Employer and the Executive. In the event it
      is determined by such counsel that Executive is not entitled to
      indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 (and if contested by
      Executive, such determination is confirmed by the final non-appealable
      order of a court of competent jurisdiction), or if a court of competent
      jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable order that Executive is
      not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9, Executive
      hereby undertakes that he shall promptly reimburse the Employer for all
      advances of Indemnified Amounts made by the Employer on Executive's
      behalf.

9.3   The rights conferred by this Section 9 shall not be exclusive of any
      other right which the Executive may have or hereafter acquire under
      applicable law, any provision of the Employers organizational documents or
      a vote of stockholders or the board of directors. This Section 9 shall
      not be deemed to affect any rights to subrogation which may exist in any
      policy of director and officers liability insurance.

9.4   The Executive shall provide notice to the Employer in writing promptly
      (and in any event within 15 business days) of the institution of any
      action, suit or proceeding which is or may be subject to this Section 9,
      provided that Executive's failure to so advise the Employer shall not
      affect the indemnification provided for herein, except to the extent such
      failure has a material and adverse effect on the Employer's ability to
      defend such action, suit or proceeding.


                                       10
<PAGE>   11
9.5.    The Executive shall be covered by insurance, to the same extent as to
        other senior executives and directors of the Employer are covered by
        insurance, with respect to (a) directors and officer's liability, (b)
        errors and omissions, and (c) general liability insurance.

10.     GENERAL PROVISIONS

10.1.   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ADDITIONAL REMEDY

The Executive acknowledges that the injury that would be suffered by the
Employer as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Agreement (including
any provision of Sections 7 and 8) would be irreparable and that an award of
monetary damages to the Employer for such a breach would be an inadequate
remedy. Consequently, the Employer will have the right, in addition to any
other rights it may have, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or
threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this
Agreement, and the Employer will not be obligated to post bond or other
security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Employer's rights under
this Section 10 or any other remedies of the Employer, if the Executive
breaches any of the provisions of Section 7 or 8, the Employer will have the
right to cease making any payments otherwise due to the Executive under this
Agreement.

10.2.   COVENANTS OF SECTIONS 7 and 8 ARE ESSENTIAL AND INDEPENDENT COVENANTS.

The covenants by the Executive in Sections 7 and 8 are essential elements of
this Agreement, and without the Executive's agreement to comply with such
covenants, the Buyer would not have purchased the Executive's stock under the
Stock Purchase Agreement and the Employer would not have entered into this
Agreement or employed or continued the employment of the Executive. The Employer
and the Executive have independently consulted their respective counsel and have
been advised in all respects concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such
covenants, with specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by the
Employer.

The Executive's covenants in Sections 7 and 8 are independent covenants and the
existence of any claim by the Executive against the Employer under this
Agreement or otherwise, or against the Buyer, will not excuse the Executive's
breach of any covenant in Section 7 or 8.

If the Executive's employment hereunder expires or is terminated, this Agreement
will continue in full force and effect as is necessary or appropriate to enforce
the covenants and agreements of the Executive in Sections 7 and 8.

10.3.   OFFSET

The Employer will be entitled to offset against any and all amounts owing to the
Executive under this Agreement the amount of any and all undisputed claims or
claims reduced to the final judgment


                                       11

that the Employer may have against the Executive under the Stock Purchase
Agreement or the Noncompetition Agreement.

10.4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE EXECUTIVE

The Executive represents and warrants to the Employer that the execution and
delivery by the Executive of this Agreement do not, and the performance by the
Executive of the Executive's obligations hereunder will not, with or without the
giving of notice or the passage of time, or both: (a) violate any judgment,
writ, injunction, or order of any court, arbitrator, or governmental agency
applicable to the Executive; or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any
provisions of or the termination of, or constitute a default under, any
agreement to which the Executive is a party or by which the Execute is or may be
bound.

10.5. OBLIGATIONS CONTINGENT ON PERFORMANCE

The obligations of the Employer hereunder, including its obligation to pay the
compensation provided for herein, are contingent upon the Executive's
performance of the Executive's obligations hereunder.

10.6. WAIVER

The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not
alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by either party in exercising any
right, power, or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such
right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right,
power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right,
power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising
out of this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a
waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the
other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable
except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or
demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such
party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further
action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement.

10.7. BINDING EFFECT; DELEGATION OF DUTIES PROHIBITED

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the
parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, and legal
representatives, including any entity with which the Employer may merge or
consolidate or to which all or substantially all of its assets may be
transferred. The duties and covenants of the Executive under this Agreement,
being personal, may not be delegated.
