                          EQUIPMENT SUPPORT SUBCONTRACT


This Agreement, consisting of this Equipment Support Subcontract along with
Schedules A through G, is between OLIVETTI CANADA LIMITED ("OCL"), a Canadian
corporation, with corporate headquarters at 2235 Sheppard Ave. E., Suite 1200,
North York, Ontario and MAI CANADA LIMITED, ("MAI"), a Canadian corporation,
with corporate headquarters at 691 Denison Street, Markham, Ontario, and is
effective on February 21, 1997 ("Effective Date").

1.       PURPOSE

         MAI sells computers and computer systems and provides service for the
         equipment it sells to its customers. As part of that business, MAI
         provides warranty service for many of the products it sells and has
         also entered into contracts with many of its customers to provide
         maintenance, repair, and related services for these products. In order
         to provide these services, MAI employs a number of computer service
         technicians working out of a number of field offices throughout Canada.
         MAI is planning to discontinue its current field service operations and
         needs a company with a qualified field service organization to perform
         the field service portion of MAI's contracts with its customers. OCL is
         also in the business of selling computers and computer systems and also
         maintains a computer service field organization throughout Canada. OCL
         has agreed to provide MAI with computer field service throughout Canada
         under the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement.


2.       APPLICATION OF AGREEMENT

         This Agreement is intended to cover not only the provision of computer
         field service operations under those contracts MAI has with its
         customers as of the Effective Date of this Agreement ("Existing
         Customer Agreements"), but contracts MAI enters into with its customers
         after the Effective Date as well ("New Customer Agreements"). However,
         the terms under which OCL will provide services related to Existing
         Customer Agreements differ in some respects from those under which it
         will provide services related to New Customer Agreements.

         Schedules A through E define the services OCL will perform and the
         manner in which MAI will support OCL and pay OCL for those services
         with respect to New Customer Agreements. Schedule F identifies the ways
         in which the treatment of these same issues will differ with respect to
         Existing Customer Agreements.

3.       EXCLUSIVITY/RIGHT TO BID

         This Agreement is intended to establish an exclusive relationship
         whereby OCL will provide all of MAI's Maintenance Service needs (for
         both Warranty Service and Contract Service) under Existing Customer
         Agreements. MAI agrees to have OCL provide all its field service
         requirements of this type under the Existing Customer Agreements and
         that it will not perform those obligations itself or contract with any
         other person or entity to provide such requirements so long as this
         Agreement is in force.

         MAI further agrees that with respect to all of its other Equipment
         Support needs it may have during the term of this Agreement, it shall,
         at a minimum, provide OCL with the opportunity to bid on the provision
         of such services. MAI (or its affiliate MAI Systems Corporation)
         further agrees to provide the use of office space and access to MAI's
         existing office equipment (telephones, copiers, fax machine, etc.) for
         OCL employee(s) to work at an MAI facility to serve as an account
         contact and to respond to requests for bids from MAI. OCL agrees to
         reimburse MAI for long distance telephone charges incurred by such
         employee(s).


4.       MAI EMPLOYEES

         a.       MAI shall terminate the employment of those MAI employees
                  identified by name and title on Schedule G (the "Target
                  Employees") effective February 20, 1997.

         b.       Prior to the Effective Date, OCL will offer employment to the
                  Target Employees on the following terms:

                  (1)      a salary or hourly wage no less than that being paid
                           to the Target Employee by MAI,

                  (2)      OCL's normal terms and conditions of employment for
                           similar employees,

                  (3)      treatment of the Target Employees' credited years of
                           service with MAI (as shown on Schedule G) as service
                           with OCL,

                  (4)      OCL agrees not to layoff any Target Employees
                           identified on Schedule G as managers during the
                           twelve (12) month period beginning on the Effective
                           Date. This shall not prohibit OCL from terminating
                           such employees for cause, and

                  (5)      OCL's offer of employment to a Target Employee shall
                           be contingent on that Target Employee agreeing to
                           transfer his or her accrued vacation balance to OCL
                           instead of having the value of that balance paid in
                           cash by MAI upon termination of employment. MAI
                           agrees to reimburse OCL for


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   3


                           the value of all vacation balances transferred to OCL
                           by Target Employees (the "Transferred Total"). This
                           reimbursement shall be made beginning March 1, 1997
                           in monthly payments equal to the greater of
                           (i)one-twelfth (1/12) of the Transferred Total or
                           (ii)the actual value of transferred vacation balances
                           taken by Target Employees in the prior month. MAI
                           agrees to indemnify OCL against any claims arising
                           from this provision on transferring vacation balances
                           in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(a) of
                           this Agreement.

         c.       The parties acknowledge that the success of this agreement is
                  partly dependent on most of the Target Employees agreeing to
                  go to work for OCL. Should either party feel that this
                  agreement will not be successful as a result of a significant
                  number of the Target Employees not accepting OCL's offered
                  employment (either because of the number of such non-accepting
                  Target Employees or their location or identity), then that
                  party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement effective
                  as of the Effective Date by notice to the other party. Such
                  notice must be delivered no later than February 25, 1997 to be
                  effective.

                  In the event of termination as provided in this section, the
                  parties agree to cooperate to place both parties back in the
                  position each would have been in had the Agreement never gone
                  into effect, for example by transferring parts back to MAI and
                  working together to reinstate the Target Employees as MAI
                  employees. MAI shall be responsible for paying wages and
                  providing benefits during the time those Target Employees who
                  accepted employment with OCL were OCL employees and/or
                  reimbursing OCL for any such employment costs incurred by it
                  during this period, but shall have no other obligation to OCL
                  for its provision of Maintenance Service during this period.

         d.       The parties acknowledge that it is likely that if OCL needs to
                  incorporate more than twenty-seven and one-half (27 1/2)
                  Target Employees into OCL's current workforce, it may need to
                  layoff some number of Customer Service Engineers. If there are
                  more than twenty-seven and one-half (27 1/2) Target Employees
                  listed on Schedule G, MAI agrees to pay OCL Thirty Thousand
                  Dollars ($30,000) (CDN) for each Target Employee ($15,000 for
                  1/2 an employee) in excess of twenty-seven and one-half (27
                  1/2) to help offset the cost of these anticipated layoffs.
                  This amount shall be paid to OCL in twelve equal monthly
                  payments beginning on March 15, 1997.

         e.       In the event of a full or partial termination of this
                  Agreement by either party pursuant to the terms of this
                  Agreement for any reason at any time prior to the end of the
                  initial term of this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

                  (1)      OCL shall terminate the employment of as many of the
                           Target Employees as it deems appropriate in light of
                           the amount of business being lost by it as a result
                           of the full or partial termination of this Agreement.

                  (2)      MAI will offer employment to the Target Employees
                           being terminated by OCL on account of the full or
                           partial termination of this Agreement on the
                           following terms:

                           a)       a salary or hourly wage no less than that
                                    being paid to the Target Employee by OCL,

                           b)       MAI's normal terms and conditions of
                                    employment for similar employees,

                           c)       treatment of the Target Employees' credited
                                    years of service with OCL as service with
                                    MAI.

                  (3)      MAI shall, at its option, be entitled to solicit for
                           hire any Target Employees not being terminated by
                           OCL, without regard to the provisions of Section 14,
                           Non-Solicitation of Employees.

         f.       MAI has decided to retain its field service engineers in
                  British Columbia as its own employees rather than outsourcing
                  that part of its operation to OCL. However, as part of this
                  agreement OCL will manage the work and operations of those MAI
                  employees and provide them with parts and other support
                  necessary for them to operate efficiently. MAI will be
                  responsible for providing these employees with any necessary
                  equipment, facilities and tools and will be responsible for
                  the hiring, firing and discipline of these employees.

         g.       The provisions of this section are intended solely for the
                  benefit of MAI and OCL and are not intended to create or
                  expand any rights, as third party beneficiaries or otherwise,
                  of any other person, including without limitation any of MAI's
                  employees. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to create
                  any additional rights to severance compensation for the Target
                  Employees who accept employment with OCL.


5.       SOFTWARE LICENSE

         MAI either owns or has the right to license certain software (including
         diagnostic programs) which is either necessary or desirable to use in
         providing Equipment Support (the "Software"). Subject to the terms and
         conditions of this Agreement MAI hereby grants to OCL a non-exclusive
         license to access and use the Software as OCL determines appropriate in
         performing its responsibilities under this Agreement and only under
         this Agreement. OCL shall be permitted to make copies of the Software
         as it deems appropriate for use in performing its obligations under
         this Agreement.

         OCL acknowledges that the Software is licensed, not sold, to it solely
         for the purpose of performing its obligations under this Agreement. OCL
         further acknowledges that the Software is "Confidential" and subject to
         the provisions of Section 16, Non-Disclosure, of this Agreement. OCL
         acknowledges that it is not permitted, nor shall it permit anyone else,
         under any circumstances, to decode, reverse engineer, decompile, or
         disassemble the Software.

12.      INDEMNIFICATION

         a.       MAI agrees to defend, indemnify and save OCL harmless from and
                  against any and all claims, suits, or proceedings brought
                  against it and in any way relating to either the allegedly
                  negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of MAI, or the
                  products sold by MAI covered by this Agreement and from the
                  costs, expenses and damages incurred by OCL in connection with
                  such claims, suits and proceedings. OCL agrees to promptly
                  notify MAI of any claim as to which indemnification is sought,
                  cooperate fully in the defense of such claim, and permit MAI
                  or its insurance carrier to control the defense and settlement
                  of such claim.

         b.       OCL agrees to defend, indemnify and save MAI harmless from and
                  against any and all claims, suits, or proceedings brought
                  against it and in any way relating to allegedly negligent or
                  wrongful acts or omissions of OCL, and from the costs,
                  expenses and damages incurred by MAI in connection with such
                  claims, suits and proceedings. MAI agrees to promptly notify
                  OCL of any claim as to which indemnification is sought,
                  cooperate fully in the defense of such claim, and permit OCL
                  or its insurance carrier to control the defense and settlement
                  of such claim.


13.      INSURANCE

         Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has and will
         maintain liability insurance coverage throughout the Term of this
         Agreement, in an amount appropriate in light of the potential liability
         created by this Agreement.


14.      NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES

         From the Effective Date until six (6) months after the termination of
         this Agreement MAI shall not, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit
         for hire any OCL employee connected with performance under this
         Agreement without OCL's prior written approval. This section shall not
         prevent MAI from soliciting or hiring any OCL employee after such
         employee's employment with OCL has been ended through no involvement by
         MAI. It is further agreed that the damages as a result of a breach of
         this provision would be difficult to measure and that the amount of One
         Hundred Thousand ($100,000.00) Dollars (CDN) is a good approximation of
         the damages that would be caused by one violation of this


                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9


         provision and should be payable as liquidated damages in the event of a
         breach of this provision.

         This paragraph shall not apply to prevent MAI from hiring or attempting
         to hire the Target Employees following a full or partial termination of
         this Agreement by MAI pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.


15.      NON-DISCLOSURE

         a.       Both parties agree that any information disclosed to it by the
                  other party in connection with this Agreement which has been
                  designated in writing as "Confidential" (including information
                  disclosed orally and identified in writing as "Confidential"
                  within ten (10) days after the initial oral disclosure) shall
                  be treated as such. Additionally, all information provided by
                  MAI to OCL in connection with requests for bids or proposals
                  for Equipment Support, including the identity of MAI's
                  customers and their service requirements, shall be deemed
                  "Confidential" whether or not it is so identified. Each agrees
                  that with respect to such information it will:

                  (1)      not disclose such information to third parties
                           without the written consent of the other,

                  (2)      use such information solely for the purposes of this
                           Agreement,

                  (3)      treat such information of the other with a degree of
                           care which is reasonably calculated to protect such
                           information from disclosure (but in any event with at
                           least the same degree of care as it treats its own
                           confidential information),

                  (4)      inform its employees, agents or authorized
                           representatives of the confidential or proprietary
                           nature of such information, and

                  (5)      direct such persons to comply with the terms of this
                           Agreement.

                  Either party may bring an action in equity to foreclose
                  violations of this section through injunctive relief.

         b.       The following types of information shall not be considered
                  "Confidential" information subject to the restrictions of this
                  provision:

                  (1)      Information in the possession of or known to the
                           receiving party on the date of receipt,


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

                  (2)      Information in the public domain at the time of its
                           disclosure or which enters the public domain after
                           such disclosure through no fault of the receiving
                           party,

                  (3)      Information independently developed by the receiving
                           party, its employees, agents or representatives
                           without reference to the other party's confidential
                           information,

                  (4)      Information made available to the receiving party,
                           its employees, agents or representatives by a third
                           party having a right to do so, or

                  (5)      Information ordered disclosed pursuant to judicial or
                           other lawful governmental action, provided, that the
                           party receiving such request gives prompt written
                           notice of the request to the other party.

         c.       MAI acknowledges that OCL's business includes the design,
                  development and servicing of products for the computer-based
                  industry, and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude or in
                  any way impair OCL's engaging or continuing to engage in that
                  business.

         d.       The non-disclosure obligations imposed by this Agreement shall
                  continue in force for so long as the information is maintained
                  as confidential by the disclosing party and for a minimum
                  period of three (3) years from the date of first disclosure,
                  regardless of any termination of this Agreement.


16.      RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARTIES

         OCL shall perform its duties under this Agreement as an independent
         contractor, and not as an agent or affiliate of MAI. In particular:

         a.       nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to
                  constitute OCL as a partner, employee or agent of MAI, nor
                  shall either have any authority to bind the other in any
                  respect it being intended that each shall remain an
                  independent contractor responsible for its own actions,

         b.       MAI shall exercise no control over the activities and
                  operations of OCL, each being recognized hereunder as an
                  independent contractor,

         c.       The relationship between OCL and MAI's customers shall be that
                  of a subcontractor; OCL is not assuming any of the Customer
                  Agreements and shall have no direct obligation to MAI's
                  customers.

17.      ASSIGNMENT

         Neither party may assign any of its rights, interests or duties under
         this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party ,
         which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event one
         party seeks consent to an assignment and the other party withholds its
         consent to that proposed assignment, the party seeking consent may
         terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days notice to the other
         party.

18.      AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES AND NOTICES

         a.       Each party shall at all times designate one representative who
                  shall be authorized to take any and all action and/or grant
                  any approvals required in the course of performance of this
                  Agreement. Such representative shall be fully authorized to
                  act for and bind such party including the approval of
                  amendments to this Agreement. Until written notice to the
                  contrary, the authorized representatives of the parties are as
                  follows:

                  FOR OCL:                      FOR MAI:

                  North York, Ontario

         b.       Any notice or other communication required or permitted under
                  this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered in
                  person or sent by overnight commercial courier service with
                  receipt, addressed as set forth below:

                  IN THE CASE OF OCL:               WITH A COPY TO:
                  Vice President                    General Counsel
                  Customer Service                  Legal Department
                  Olivetti Canada Limited           Olivetti North America, Inc.
                  2235 Sheppard Ave. E.             22425 E. Appleway

                  Notice shall be deemed given when received.

                  or other communications are to be sent by giving written
                  notice of such change to the other party.

19.      EXCUSED NON-PERFORMANCE

         A delay in or failure of performance under this Agreement caused by
         circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the party affected shall
         be excused to the extent necessary, provided that the party affected
         shall make reasonable efforts to remove or circumvent such
         circumstances. Such excusing circumstances shall include (without
         limitation): shortages of materials; acts of God; fire; flood; war;
         embargo; labor trouble; failure or delay by suppliers; riots; and laws,
         rules, regulations and orders of any governmental authority. If any
         delay or inability to perform continues for more than sixty (60) days,
         the non-affected party shall have the right to terminate the affected
         portion of this Agreement upon seven (7) days Notice to the affected
         party, or to suspend its obligations under the Agreement until such
         time as the delay or inability to perform is corrected.

         If any delay or inability to perform on the part of OCL continues for a
         period greater than the period of excused non-performance permitted in
         MAI's contract with one of more of its Customers, MAI shall have the
         right to terminate the affected portion of this Agreement upon
         twenty-four (24) hours Notice to OCL. MAI agrees to continue to include
         an excused nonperformance provision substantially similar to the first
         two sentences of Section 15 of its current Services Agreement form
         contract (see Appendix F-2) in future services agreements with
         Customers.


20.      DEFAULT AND TERMINATION

         a.       If either party defaults in performance of any material
                  obligation under this Agreement, and such default is not cured
                  within sixty (60) days after receipt of Notice from the
                  non-defaulting party, the non-defaulting party shall have the
                  right to immediately terminate this Agreement by Notice to the
                  defaulting party.

         b.       MAI may terminate this Agreement, as it relates to an
                  individual MAI Customer, for default by OCL on less than sixty
                  days notice as follows:

                  (1)      If OCL is in default under this Agreement MAI shall
                           escalate that problem within OCL's service
                           organization as necessary in order to have the
                           problem addressed. This escalation shall include,
                           when necessary, bringing the problem to the attention
                           of OCL's vice president of customer service.

                  (2)      If, after OCL has been given a reasonable opportunity
                           under the circumstances to resolve the problem, MAI
                           believes that OCL is still in default under this
                           Agreement, MAI will give OCL Notice of the alleged
                           default.



                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13



                  (3)      If OCL has not cured the default within forty-eight
                           (48) hours of its receipt of Notice, MAI may
                           terminate this Agreement as to the MAI Customer to
                           whom the default relates.

         c.       Should MAI become more than forty-five (45) days delinquent in
                  its obligation to pay, OCL may suspend its performance
                  hereunder until MAI's account is brought current. If MAI's
                  account remains delinquent for a total period of sixty (60)
                  days, OCL shall have the option to terminate this Agreement
                  immediately by Notice to MAI.

         d.       Termination of this Agreement shall not affect any rights
                  existing as of the effective date of termination.

         e.       The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are
                  cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies
                  available at law or in equity.

         f.       The provisions of Section 16 shall survive termination of this
                  Agreement.


21.      CONFLICT RESOLUTION

         MAI and OCL agree to meet and work together to find acceptable
         solutions to any disputes between them related to this Agreement. If,
         after thirty (30) days, they are unable to so resolve the dispute, the
         dispute will be referred to MAI's President and the President or CEO of
         OCL, or their designated representatives, who shall meet or talk within
         fifteen (15) business days after Notice is received to resolve such
         dispute. Notice of the invocation of this procedure shall be directed
         to such officers and shall include a reference to this Section 16. If
         the dispute is not resolved by this meeting, then it shall be resolved
         by arbitration in accordance with Section 17. If a party fails to meet
         with the other party upon request, the requesting party may either
         obtain an order of a court of competent jurisdiction requiring the
         non-complying party to meet and confer or proceed to arbitration in
         accordance with Section 17.


22.      ARBITRATION

         All disputes relating to this Agreement shall be submitted to
         arbitration in accordance with the commercial rules of the Arbitration
         Act RSO, 1990. The decision of the arbitrators shall be final, binding,
         and without appeal and may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction
         over the relevant parties or their assets.


23.  GENERAL

         a.       This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province
                  of Ontario.


                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14

         b.       This Agreement together with the attached Schedules,
                  constitutes the complete and final agreement between the
                  parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
                  This Agreement supersedes all prior discussions, agreements
                  and writings with respect thereto. No agreement purporting to
                  modify, add to, terminate, waive or change any term or
                  condition of this Agreement shall be binding unless it is in
                  writing and signed by authorized representatives of both
                  parties.

         c.       The organization of this Agreement and section headings are
                  for convenience only and shall not be used to construe or
                  interpret this Agreement.

         d.       No delay or failure of either party in exercising any right
                  hereunder, and no partial or single exercise thereof, shall be
                  deemed to constitute a waiver of such right or any other
                  rights hereunder.

         e.       If any provision or term of this Agreement shall be deemed or
                  construed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court
                  of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall in no way
                  affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of the
                  remaining portions of this Agreement.

         f.       Should legal action be required to enforce or interpret any of
                  the provisions of this agreement the prevailing party shall be
                  entitled to all costs incurred in connection with that action,
                  including a reasonable attorney's fee.

The parties anticipate that OCL will be submitting bids to MAI with respect to
most New Customer Agreements and that the provisions of this schedule may be
modified by the specific provisions of a bid provided by OCL. However, in the
absence of such changes specified in the OCL bid documents, OCL will be making
its bids on the basis of the provisions of this schedule. The parties also
anticipate that as they refine their relationship and the manner in which they
do business, they may decide to modify the provisions of this schedule and each
agrees to negotiate in good faith about any requests for changes made by the
other. Any agreed changes resulting from such negotiations will be reflected in
an amendment to this Agreement signed by both parties.

1.       PLACING EQUIPMENT UNDER SERVICE

         a.       In order to initiate Equipment Support for a particular item
                  of Equipment MAI must prepare and submit a completed OCL
                  Maintenance Service Order ("MSO") to OCL and that MSO must be
                  accepted by OCL. The MSO must include such information about
                  the Equipment as is reasonably requested by OCL, including:

                  (1)      the model, age and configuration of the Equipment,

                  (2)      the Equipment Location,

                  (3)      the name, address, and telephone number of the End
                           User,

                  (4)      the identity of the End User contact person, and

                  (5)      any applicable uplifts for Extended Maintenance
                           Service which apply to the Equipment, such as zone
                           uplifts, extended coverage hours uplifts and/or
                           response time uplifts.

         b.       Equipment Support will not begin for a particular item of
                  Equipment until OCL has received and accepted an MSO for that
                  item of Equipment. Following acceptance of an MSO, OCL will
                  label the Equipment with an ID tag. This ID number must be
                  used to identify the Equipment in all communications with OCL
                  about the Equipment.

         c.       All changes to the information provided to OCL about Equipment
                  under maintenance, such as a change in Equipment location,
                  must be documented by submission of a revised MSO.

1.       TRAINING

         a.       Because OCL will be hiring many of MAI's former service
                  engineers, the parties do not anticipate that any initial
                  training of OCL personnel will be required. Should training
                  subsequently be required as a result of adding new Equipment
                  to the Schedules to this Agreement the parties will at that
                  time determine who is required to provide such training. If no
                  agreement is reached on this issue, OCL shall not be required
                  to provide Equipment Support for such newly added Equipment.

         b.       MAI will, upon request from OCL and at no charge, provide OCL
                  with such technical consultation and assistance as is
                  appropriate to enable OCL to provide its service
                  representatives with such training as its deems appropriate.
                  This shall include, without limitation, providing OCL with a
                  copy of MAI's educational materials pertaining to the
                  Equipment and permitting OCL to make such use of those
                  materials as it deems appropriate for its internal use in
                  satisfying its commitment to provide Equipment Support under
                  this Agreement.

2.       DOCUMENTATION

         a.       As soon as practicable after execution of this Agreement MAI
                  will provide OCL, at no charge, with one complete set of

         b.       As soon as practicable after any Equipment is added to the
                  Appendix to Schedule A, MAI will provide OCL, at no charge,
                  with one complete set of documentation and diagnostics for
                  such additional Equipment.

         c.       As soon as practicable after updates or changes to the
                  documentation and diagnostics provided to OCL become
                  available, MAI will provide OCL with those updates and changes
                  at no charge.

         d.       OCL may copy, modify, and use any or all of the documentation
                  and diagnostics provided to it by MAI as it deems necessary
                  for its internal use, while retaining all MAI trademarks and
                  copyrights.

[**CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED FOR CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THIS
DOCUMENT AND THE CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF EXHIBIT 10.2 HAVE BEEN FILED
SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION]

                                   SCHEDULE F

                          EXISTING CUSTOMER AGREEMENTS



1.       STATEMENT OF INTENT

         The general intent of the parties is to have OCL perform the service
         which MAI is currently required to provide to MAI's customers under the
         Existing Customer Agreements in return for [**] MAI is consigning its
         current inventory of spare parts to OCL to permit it to perform that
         service and MAI will be providing technical hardware and software
         support to OCL as required to assist it in providing this service.
         Initially, MAI will be handling the incoming call reception for all
         Existing Customer Agreements, however the parties intend to begin
         working to transfer this function for certain of the Existing Customer
         Agreements (the "Legacy Agreements") to OCL as soon as this agreement
         has been executed. Eventually, MAI may also like to transfer the
         billing and collection functions for the Legacy Agreements to OCL if it
         is practical and economical to do so. The remainder of this schedule is
         intended to define the precise terms and conditions pursuant to which
         this general intent will be carried out.


2.       IDENTIFICATION OF CUSTOMERS

         Attached as Appendix F-I is a list of those MAI customers for whom MAI
         will retain the call reception, billing and collection functions
         throughout the term of this Agreement (the "Open Customers"). All MAI
         customers with Existing Customer Agreements who are not listed on
         Appendix F-I are "Legacy Customers" for purposes of this Agreement.


3.       EQUIPMENT SUPPORT

         a.       GENERALLY. With the exceptions listed below, OCL will perform
                  MAI's Equipment Support obligations under the Existing
                  Customer Agreements under the same terms and conditions as are
                  required of MAI under those agreements. This shall include
                  Contract Service, Installation Service, and Time and Materials
                  Service to the extent such types of service are covered by the
                  Existing Customer Agreements. Provision of a particular type
                  of service for an Existing MAI Customer which is not covered
                  by the Existing Customer Agreement for that customer shall be
                  considered the provision of service under a New Customer
                  Agreement for purposes of this Agreement.




                                      -26-
<PAGE>   27



                  Prior to execution of this Agreement, MAI provided OCL with
                  the form customer agreements and sample customer agreements
                  which are attached as Appendix F-2. MAI represents and
                  warrants to OCL that its Equipment Support obligations under
                  the Existing Customer Agreements are not materially different
                  than those required under these form customer agreements and
                  sample customer agreements.

         b.       EXCEPTIONS. MAI shall continue to perform the following
                  Equipment Support Obligations under the Existing Customer
                  Agreements:

                  (1)      MAI shall continue to receive incoming trouble calls
                           from its customers. MAI will screen these calls to
                           determine whether the problem is hardware or software
                           related. With respect to calls which MAI determines
                           are hardware related, MAI shall notify OCL's dispatch
                           center and provide it with the information MAI has
                           about the problem so that OCL may dispatch a service
                           technician to the customer site to resolve the
                           problem. Upon resolution of the problem, OCL shall
                           notify MAI of its resolution of the problem and
                           provide it with the information necessary to permit
                           MAI to close the can in its records. The parties
                           agree to work together to link their computer systems
                           so that this entire process may ordinarily be done
                           via computer without the need for telephone or other
                           alternate means of communication.

                           Immediately following execution of this Agreement the
                           parties agree to begin working together to transfer
                           responsibility for incoming trouble calls from Legacy
                           Customers to OCL. OCL will provide Legacy Customers
                           with a to free phone number to use to call OCL with
                           trouble calls to place requests for service. The
                           parties agree to cooperate to make this transition as
                           smooth and as customer friendly as reasonably
                           possible. Upon completion of this process, OCL shall
                           be completely responsible for the call tracking
                           process and shall cease providing MAI with call
                           closure information for the Legacy Customers. At that
                           time, OCL will begin to provide MAI with mutually
                           defined reports summarizing its handling of Legacy
                           Customer calls.

                  (2)      MAI shall continue to invoice its customers pursuant
                           to the Existing Customer Agreements and be
                           responsible for the collection of those invoices from
                           its customers. As part of this function, MAI will
                           retain the authority to determine if and when service
                           to a particular customer should be terminated and it
                           win notify OCL of any such termination of service.
                           Until receipt of such notification from MAI, OCL
                           shall continue to provide service to customers as
                           required by that customer's Existing Customer
                           Agreement and shall be entitled to be paid by MAI for
                           such service as provided by this Agreement.

                           Following execution of this Agreement the parties
                           agree to begin working together to determine if it is
                           practical and economical to transfer responsibility
                           for the billing of and collection from Legacy
                           Customers to OCL. Part of this process will be
                           negotiation of the amount MAI will pay OCL to assume
                           these functions if the parties decide to proceed with
                           a transfer of these functions to OCL.

4.       TRANSITION

         The parties agree to work together to make the transfer of the service
         work for Existing Customers from MAI to OCL as smooth as possible. As
         part of this transition, MAI will provide OCL with access to its
         customer service database and work with OCL to transfer the information
         in that database into OCL's customer service database so that it win be
         in place and useable by OCL on the Effective Date of this Agreement.


5.       PAYMENT

         a.       For OCL's provision of Equipment Support under an Existing
                  Customer Agreement MAI will pay [**] recognized by MAI for
                  financial accounting purposes in connection with the Equipment
                  Support being provided by OCL ("Revenue") less the burdened
                  employee cost and the necessary cost of providing facilities
                  related to the MAI field engineers in British Columbia [**].
                  The parties recognize that MAI may bill its customers in
                  advance for the Equipment Support being provided by OCL and
                  that it may recognize revenue incrementally as the support is
                  provided. Further, the parties recognize that MAI may
                  establish a reserve for non-payment which reserve shall be
                  consistent with GAAP accounting principles and shall be
                  consistent with MAI's past collection experience of its
                  Existing Customer Agreements.

         b.       MAI will pay OCL the payment required pursuant to subparagraph
                  (a), above, monthly in arrears on or before the fifteenth day
                  of each month. OCL will not invoice MAI for these amounts.

         c.       OCL will provide MAI with such information as is necessary for
                  MAI to bill its customers for nonrecurring Equipment Support
                  provided by OCL, such as Installation, Time and Materials, and
                  Warranty Service.

         d.       Both parties shall have the right to audit the billing and
                  collection being done by the other related to this Agreement
                  and each shall provide the other with full access to its
                  pertinent financial records for the purpose of such audits.
                  Such access shall be at a reasonable time agreed upon in
                  advance and shall include the right to make copies of material
                  records upon confirmation of materiality by the audited party.
                  All records produced and/or copied by the auditing party are
                  deemed Confidential and protected by the confidentiality
                  provisions of this Agreement. Any variations from previously
                  reported figures disclosed by such audits shall be settled
                  between the parties by payment within thirty (30) days of the
                  discovery of such variation.

6.       REVENUE BASED PAYMENT ADJUSTMENT

         a.       ADJUSTMENT. MAI has represented to OCL that, as of the
                  Effective Date, the Existing Customer Agreements are
                  generating [**] The parties agree that if, during the initial
                  term of the Agreement the actual revenue generated by the
                  Existing Customer Agreements (the "Actual Revenue") during a
                  calendar quarter is less than the Target Revenue, OCL's
                  percentage of the revenue from the Existing Customer
                  Agreements shall be increased by [**] that the Actual Revenue
                  is less than the Target Revenue. Any partial calendar quarter
                  will be pro-rated accordingly.

                  For example, if the Actual Revenue during the first full
                  calendar quarter of this Agreement is [**] Revenue percentage
                  will be increased by [**] MAI will at that time pay OCL the
                  difference between the amount MAI has paid OCL on Existing
                  Customer Agreement revenue during that calendar quarter at the
                  [**] and what it would have paid at the [**].

         b.       IMPLEMENTATION. These changes in the revenue percentage, if
                  any, will be implemented by reviewing the Actual Revenue at
                  the end of each full calendar quarter during the contract term
                  and adjusting the percentage rate accordingly. This adjustment
                  will be retroactive to the beginning of that calendar quarter
                  and any payments required to effectuate that adjustment for
                  the calendar quarter just ended will be made within ten (10)
                  business days. OCL's percentage of revenue during the
                  following calendar quarter will be based on the adjusted
                  percentage rate, which will then be re-evaluated and adjusted
                  as necessary at the end of the following calendar quarter.

         c.       THIRD PARTY CONTRACTS. Revenue from MAI's agreements with the
                  following companies which have been assigned to OCL pursuant
                  to a separate document has not been included in the Target
                  Revenue and shall not be considered for the purposes of this
                  Section of this Agreement:

                  (7)      Sidus Systems, Inc.


7.      PARTS

         a.       MAI will consign to OCL its current inventory of Parts being
                  used by it to perform Equipment Support pursuant to Existing
                  Customer Agreements (the "Consigned Parts"). MAI represents
                  and warrants to OCL that this inventory of Consigned Parts is
                  adequate in size and mix to properly perform the Equipment
                  Support OCL will be providing for Existing Customers as of the
                  Effective Date of this Agreement.

         b.       OCL will be responsible for the physical transfer of the
                  Consigned Parts from MAI to OCL. MAI agrees to cooperate fully
                  with OCL in order to enable the smooth transfer of the
                  Consigned Parts. Within 90 days of the Effective Date, OCL
                  will perform a physical inventory of the Consigned Parts and
                  provide MAI with a written list of the Consigned Parts. OCL
                  will immediately perform a physical inventory of those
                  Consigned Parts, if any, which are not the property of MAI and
                  which have been consigned to it by a third party. This
                  physical inventory of third party owned Consigned Parts will
                  be binding on the parties for purposes of adjusting any
                  shortage of such parts with the third party owner.

         c.       OCL will be responsible for maintaining the Consigned Parts in
                  the general condition and quantities as they were received
                  from MAI. OCL shall keep the Consigned Parts in such a manner
                  so that they are separately identifiable from OCL owned Parts.
                  As the Consigned Parts are used by OCL to perform Equipment
                  Support, OCL shall replace them with the exchanged part from
                  the customer equipment, after first making any necessary
                  repairs to the exchanged part. Exchanged parts which are not
                  repairable shall be replaced by OCL. OCL will be
                  subcontracting the actual repair of the Consigned Parts to a
                  third party and MAI hereby consents to that subcontracting.

                  Amounts or types of Parts added to the Consigned Parts by OCL
                  shall be the property of OCL and shall not be delivered to MAI
                  upon termination of this Agreement.

                  Should it become impractical for OCL to obtain replacement
                  parts (either because they are not reasonably available or not
                  reasonably affordable) OCL shall not be required to replace
                  unrepairable portions of the Consigned Inventory and shall be
                  relieved of its obligation to provide Equipment Support to the
                  extent it is prevented from doing so by this inability to
                  obtain replacement parts.

         d.       Upon termination of this Agreement, OCL will return the
                  Consigned Parts to MAI in the quantities and condition it
                  received them from MAI, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

         e.       OCL agrees that MAI may search all pertinent public records,
                  file financing statements, and take other necessary steps to
                  protect MAI's ownership of the Consigned Parts against claims
                  of creditors and carry out the purposes of this Agreement. OCL
                  agrees to promptly execute and deliver to MAI all financing
                  statements and other documents necessary to permit MAI to
                  carry out such steps and otherwise cooperate with MAI's
                  efforts to protect its ownership of the Consigned Parts.


8.      TOOLS

         a.       MAI will loan to OCL its current inventory of tools (including
                  laptop computers and diagnostic software) being used by its
                  field engineer work force or repair center to perform
                  Equipment Support pursuant to Existing Customer Agreements
                  (the "Consigned Tools"). MAI represents and warrants to OCL
                  that this inventory of Consigned Tools is adequate in size and
                  mix to properly perform the Equipment Support OCL will be
                  providing for Existing Customers as of the Effective Date of
                  this Agreement. The Consigned Tools shall remain the property
                  of MAI. OCL win be responsible for maintaining the Consigned
                  Tools in the general condition as they were received from MAI,
                  ordinary wear and tear excepted.

         b.       OCL will be responsible for the physical transfer of the
                  Consigned Tools from MAI to OCL. MAI agrees to cooperate fully
                  with OCL in order to enable the smooth transfer of the
                  Consigned Tools. Within 90 days of the Effective Date, OCL
                  will perform a physical inventory of the Consigned Tools and
                  provide MAI with a written list of the Consigned Tools.

         c.       OCL shall keep the Consigned Tools in such a manner so that
                  they are separately identifiable from OCL owned tools. Upon
                  termination of this Agreement OCL will return the Consigned
                  Tools to MAI in the condition it received them from MAI,
                  ordinary wear and tear excepted.

         d.       OCL agrees that MAI may search all pertinent public records,
                  file financing statements, and take other necessary steps to
                  protect NW's ownership of the Consigned Tools against claims
                  of creditors and carry out the purposes of this Agreement. OCL
                  agrees to promptly execute and deliver to MAI all financing
                  statements and other documents necessary to permit MAI to
                  carry out such steps and otherwise cooperate with MAI's
                  efforts to protect its ownership of the Consigned Tools.

9.       WARRANTY SERVICE

         a.       OCL will provide Warranty Service under warranty obligations
                  in place on the Effective Date of this Agreement in accordance
                  with those warranties and will seek reimbursement from the
                  warranty provider in accordance with its usual terms. Where
                  the warranty provider is MAI, MAI will reimburse OCL on a Time
                  and Materials basis at the reduced rates of [**] outside
                  Normal Service Hours.


10.      NEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

         a.      EXISTING CUSTOMERS. Except for those Existing Customers with
                 whom OCL or its corporate affiliates has a pre-existing
                 relationship as of the Effective Date of this Agreement OCL
                 shall not solicit or contract with Existing Customers for any
                 products or services without MAI's express written consent.
                 Except as expressly prohibited by this provision, OCL shall not
                 be limited in its ability to conduct it business as if it had
                 not entered into this Agreement with MAI.

                 MAI agrees not to unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to
                 requests from OCL to solicit or contract with Existing
                 Customers for the sale of products or services which are not
                 competitive with a product or service sold by MAI. In granting
                 its consent, MAI shall be entitled to place reasonable
                 restrictions on the manner in which OCL interacts with the
                 Existing Customers, for example by precluding the involvement
                 of the OCL employees who provide Equipment Support for that
                 Existing Customer pursuant to this Agreement. In the event MAI
                 withholds its consent to a request by OCL to solicit or
                 contract with an Existing Customer, OCL shall be entitled to
                 terminate this Agreement upon one hundred eighty (180) days
                 prior written notice to MAI without further liability or
                 obligation to MAI. OCL's failure to exercise this right to
                 terminate on one or more occasions when it has the opportunity
                 to do so shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such
                 right or any other rights hereunder

         b.       MAI NON-SERVICE CUSTOMERS. There are persons using MAI
                  hardware and software who, as of the Effective Date, do not
                  have an existing agreement with MAI for Equipment Support
                  ("MAI Non-Service Customers"). OCL is free to solicit
                  contracts with MAI Non-Service Customers (except those who MAI
                  is prohibited from soliciting pursuant to its July 21, 1993
                  agreement with Banwell) for any types of products or services,
                  including contracts for all types of Equipment Support.
                  Contracts for Equipment Support with MAI Non-Service Customers
                  shall be entered into between the customer and MAI, on terms

                  negotiated by OCL, and shall be treated as Existing Customer
                  Agreements for purposes of this Agreement.

                 MAI agrees to reimburse OCL for [**] of the sales costs
                 (including the sales commission) it incurs in connection with
                 obtaining a Contract for Equipment Support with an MAI
