                        Insider Trading and Tipping; or

                8.1.2   Conviction of Employee of a felony involving moral
                        turpitude, or of any other law which may reasonably be
                        deemed to cause a detrimental effect upon the Company as
                        a result of mutual association. If the Company separates
                        the Employee for cause, the Company will have not
                        further liability or obligation except to pay the
                        Employee earned and unpaid compensation.

        8.2     The Company may separate the Employee (i) without cause, or (ii)
                should the Employee die or become disabled such that the
                Employee has been unable to perform any of his essential duties
                for ninety (90) days during any year of this Agreement or for
                any period of sixty (60) consecutive days. In the event of such
                separation, Employee shall receive six (6) months salary, a
                pro-rata portion of any bonus earned by Employee and unpaid by
                Company to Employee and all benefits as set forth in Section 5
                in this Agreement for six (6) months.

        8.3     The Employee may terminate his employment for good cause defined
                as follows:

                8.3.1   There is no continuing employment in a comparable
                        position of responsibility at the Company, its
                        subsidiaries, affiliates or successors, or the
                        Employee's position has been downgraded to a position
                        where Employee's total compensation, calculated as base
                        salary plus annual bonus (hereinafter referred to as
                        "Total Compensation"), becomes less than ninety percent
                        (90%) (applied equally to base salary and annual bonus)
                        of Employee's Total Compensation as set forth in Section
                        3 of this Agreement.

                8.3.2   In the event of such separation, Employee shall receive
                        six (6) months salary, a pro-rata portion of any bonus
                        earned by

                majority of the outstanding shares or assets of the Company, or
                (ii) change in composition of more than fifty (50%) of the Board

        8.6     In the event of a termination by either one of the Parties, and
                at the Company's sole discretion, Employee shall continue to
                render his services to the Company during the thirty (30) days
                period after notice of termination is given.

        8.7     In the event of termination by either one of the Parties, the
                Company shall have the right to bar or otherwise restrict

                termination, including the absolute right to remove Employee
                from the Company's premises at the time of termination, whether
                or not such termination occurs during business hours.

9       MISCELLANEOUS

        9.2     This Agreement, including Exhibit I, represents the entire
                Agreement and understanding of the Parties. The provisions of
                this Agreement may not be waived, altered or amended except by
                agreement in writing signed by the Parties. No waiver of breach
                hereof shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach, and
                if any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of
                competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the remaining provisions
                shall remain enforceable.

        9.3     All notices or other communications provided for in this writing
                shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally,

        9.5     Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
                conferred by any of its provisions is intended to be exclusive
                of any other remedy now or hereafter provided by law, and the
                election of any one or more such available remedies by either of
                the parties shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such
                party to other available remedies.

                jurisdiction should decline to enforce any provision of this
                Agreement, or otherwise determines any provision hereof to be
                invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be
                modified or eliminated as required by the court's order, but all
                remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
