         ( (b) TRADE SECRETS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

(1)      TRADE SECRETS. Employee recognizes and acknowledges that by virtue of
         Employee's employment with the Company, Employee will have access to
         certain trade secrets and confidential information of the Company and
         that such information constitutes valuable, special and unique property
         of the Company, and derives economic value because it is not generally
         known to the public or to others who could benefit from its disclosure
         or use ("Trade Secrets and Confidential Information"). Trade Secrets
         and Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, the
         following: (i) customer information, including, without limitation,
         customer lists and other information concerning particular needs,
         problems, likes or dislikes of the Company's customers; (ii) the
         identities of the Company's customers; (iii) price information, such as
         price lists, the contents of bids, and other information concerning
         costs or profits; (iv) technical information, such as formulae,
         know-how, computer programs, software, secret processes or machines,
         inventions and research projects, documentation, or other methods or
         processes; (v) business information relating to costs, profits, sales,
         markets, suppliers, plans for further development, market studies,
         methods of doing business or research projects; (vi) personnel or a
         compilation of data concerning the Company `s employees and independent
         contractors; and (vii) any other information valuable because of its
         private or confidential nature. Trade Secrets and Confidential
         Information may be oral or written and may be information which
         Employee originates or which otherwise comes into Employee's possession
         or knowledge. All such Trade Secrets and Confidential Information
         constitute valuable, special and unique property of the Company and
         derive economic value because such Trade Secrets and Confidential
         Information are not generally known to the public or to others who
         could benefit from their disclosure or use.

(2)      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Employee agrees that Employee shall treat all
         Trade Secrets and Confidential Information of the Company as
         confidential and shall not divulge or disclose any of same gained in
         connection with Employee's employment by the Company to any other
         person, firm, corporation or entity ("Person"), except upon the written
         request or instruction of the Company or in the normal course of
         Employee's duties as a Company Employee or as otherwise required by law
         or legal process.

(3)      RETURN OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Employee covenants and acknowledges
         that upon separation from employment with the Company, Employee shall
         immediately surrender to the Company all of the Company's Trade Secrets
         and Confidential Information and any and all such documents, materials
         or other tangible items pertaining to these Trade Secrets and
         Confidential Information that Employee may possess and that such Trade
         Secrets and Confidential Information shall be and remain the sole
         property of the Company. Employee agrees that if Employee is in doubt
         as to whether any information, material, or document is a Trade Secret
         or is Confidential Information, Employee will contact the Board of
         Directors of the Company before disclosing or using same for any
         purpose other than in furtherance of Employee's duties as an employee
         of the Company. The covenants of this Section 8 shall continue for as
         long after the termination of this Employment Agreement as any Trade
         Secret or Confidential Information continues to constitute a trade
         secret under applicable law.

         research of, or products or services sold by, the Company (herein

         and which relate in any manner to Employee's work, the Company's
         research, business or products or fields to which the business of the
         Company may reasonably extend. Employee further agrees to assign and
         transfer to the Company Employee's entire right, title and interest in

         without the prior written consent of the Company, except as required by

(2)      DISCLOSURE AND PROTECTION OF INVENTIONS. Employee further agrees to
         promptly and fully disclose the Inventions to the Company, in writing
         if requested by the Company, and to execute and deliver any and all
         lawful applications assignments and other documents which the Company
         requests for protecting the Inventions in the United States or any
         other country. The Company shall have the full and sole power to
         prosecute such applications and to take all other action concerning the
         Inventions, and Employee agrees to cooperate fully, at the expense of
         the Company, in preparing and prosecuting all such applications and in
         any legal actions and proceedings concerning the Inventions in the
         United States and in foreign countries, including assigning priority
         rights and executing any and all applications, including renewals,
         extensions and divisions thereof.

(3)      ASSIGNMENT OF CREATIONS. Employee agrees to and does hereby assign,
         convey and transfer to the Company any and all manuscripts, computer
         programs, writings, pictorial materials and other creations (herein
         called collectively "Creations"), created by Employee, either
         individually or jointly, in the course of Employee's employment by the
         Company and which relate to the Company's business, research, products
         or services. The Company shall have the full right to seek and procure
         copyrights on the Creations, and Employee shall cooperate fully, at the
         expense of the Company, in securing copyrights and in any legal actions
         and proceedings concerning the Creations in the United States and in
         foreign countries, including executing any and all applications,
         including renewals thereof. Employee further agrees not to disclose
         such Creations to others without the prior written consent of the
         Company, except as required by Employee's employment by the Company or
         by law.

(4)      NO ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION. Employee shall not be entitled to any
         additional compensation for any services the Company shall require to
         be rendered by Employee under this Section.

         (b) NON-SOLICITATION. Employee agrees and acknowledges that Employee's
services hereunder are of a special, unique, extraordinary character, that
Employee's employment with the Company places Employee in a position of
confidence and trust and that Employee's services hereunder necessarily will
require the disclosure to Employee of Confidential Information of the Company.
Employee consequently agrees that it is reasonable and necessary for the
protection of the goodwill and business of the Company that Employee make the
covenants contained herein and that Company is relying upon and is induced by
the agreements made by Employee in this paragraph. Accordingly, Employee agrees
that during the term of this Agreement and for a twelve (12) month period
thereafter, Employee shall not, except on behalf of the Company, directly or
indirectly, and regardless of the reason for the cessation of Employee's
employment (i) attempt in any manner to persuade any third party to cease to do
business, or to reduce the amount of business which any such party customarily
has done or contemplates doing, with the Company, whether or not the
relationship between the Company and such third party was originally established
in whole or in part through Employee's efforts; or (ii) on Employee's own behalf
or otherwise, hire, solicit, seek to hire, or offer employment to any person who
is, during any such time period, an employee of or independent contractor with
the Company, or in any other manner attempt, directly or indirectly, to
influence, induce or encourage any such person to leave the employ of, or
terminate or diminish such person's business relationship with, the Company. As
used in this paragraph, the verb 'employ' shall include its variations, for
example, retain or engage; and the "Company" shall include Case Financial, Inc.
and each of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

The covenants of Employee set forth in this Section 6 are made in consideration
of the payments made to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, the receipt,
adequacy and sufficiency of which are acknowledged by Employee, and such
covenants have been made by Employee to induce the Company to enter into this
Agreement.

         7. STOCK OPTIONS. In consideration of his services hereunder, Employee
shall be entitled to receive from the Company and the Company shall grant to
Employee concurrently with the execution hereof, an option to purchase up to

business on May 24, 2002 which was the day the transaction with Asia Web

Company and all copyrights, patents, trademarks and all other rights to such
works are owned by the Company. Upon the conclusion of Employee's employment
with the Company, such documents will remain the intellectual property of the
Company and are to remain at the Company's headquarters. Employee agrees to
execute any and all documents reasonably requested by the Company to effect the
provisions of this Section 8.
