                                  AMENDMENT OF
                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         WHEREAS, Acsys, Inc. (formerly known as ICCE, Inc.) (the "Company") and
David C. Cooper (the "Executive") have entered into an employment agreement
dated May 16, 1997 (the "Employment Agreement");

         WHEREAS, the Company, Tiberia B.V. ("Tiberia"), Platform Purchaser Inc.
("Purchaser"), Vedior N.V. and Select Appointments North America Inc. have
entered into an agreement dated April 16, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement")
providing for the merger of Purchaser with and into the Company with the Company
surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Tiberia (the "Merger"), and a
condition of the consummation of the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement is
that the Executive enter into this amendment;

         WHEREAS, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser is to
purchase Shares pursuant to an Offer if the Minimum Tender Condition is
satisfied, and the date on which such purchase occurs is referred to as the
"Tender Date" for purposes of this amendment (as the terms "Shares," "Offer,"
and "Minimum Tender Condition" are defined in the Merger Agreement);

         NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Employment Agreement, IT
IS AGREED by and between the parties hereto that, effective as of the Tender
Date, the Employment Agreement is hereby amended in the following particulars;
provided however, that this amendment shall be without effect if the Tender Date
does not occur, or if the Executive's employment with the Company terminates
prior to the Tender Date:

1.       By substituting the phrase "until (and including the date of) the
         two-year anniversary of the Tender Date (as defined below)" for the
         phrase "for a period of three (3) years" where the latter phrase
         appears in Section 1.1 of the Employment Agreement, and by deleting the
         second sentence of Section 1.1.

2.       By substituting the phrase "Chief Executive Officer" for the phrase
         "Chairman of the Board" in each place the latter phrase appears in
         Section 1.2 of the Employment Agreement.

3.       By substituting the following for Section 1.3 of the Employment
         Agreement:

                  "1.3     Compensation. For services to be rendered by
         Executive under this Agreement, Company shall pay Executive an annual
         base salary of $300,000. At the sole discretion of the Board of
         Directors of the Company, Executive's salary may be increased from time
         to time. In addition, Executive shall be eligible to receive bonus
         compensation as hereinafter set forth. The determination of such bonus
         amount and the time of payment of such bonus shall be substantially in
         accordance with the description of the determination


<PAGE>   2

         of such bonus in accordance with Exhibit A to this Agreement (which
         relates to the bonus calculation of certain other employees), which is
         attached to and forms a part of this Agreement. The revenue and EBITDA
         goals for the year 2000 shall be as currently set forth in the budget
         prepared by the Company's management for the year 2000. The revenue and
         EBITDA goals for the year 2001 shall be established by the Company's
         management in accordance with historical practices but shall be subject
         to approval by the Company's Board of Directors."

4.       By adding the following new Section 1.4(d) to the Employment Agreement:

                  "(d)     Acsys, Inc. ("Acsys"), Tiberia B.V. ("Tiberia"),
         Platform Purchaser Inc ("Purchaser"), Vedior N.V. and Select
         Appointments North America Inc. have entered into an agreement dated
         April 16, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement") providing for the merger of
         Purchaser with and into Acsys with Acsys surviving as a wholly owned
         subsidiary of Tiberia (the "Merger"). Subject to the terms of the
         Merger Agreement, Purchaser is to purchase Shares pursuant to an Offer
         if the Minimum Tender Condition is satisfied, and the date on which
         such purchase occurs is referred to as the "Tender Date" for purposes
         of this Agreement (as the terms "Shares," "Offer," and "Minimum Tender
         Condition" are defined in the Merger Agreement). As of the Tender Date,
         the Company shall make a lump sum cash payment to the Executive equal
         to $300,000, if the Executive is employed by the Company on that date.
         As soon as practicable after the two-year anniversary of the Tender
         Date, if the Executive is employed by the Company on such two-year
         anniversary, the Executive shall be entitled to a second payment of
         $300,000."

5.       By substituting the phrase "following termination of employment for any
         reason" for the phrase "thereafter, unless Executive is terminated
         other than for Cause (as defined below) or Executive resigns for Good
         Reason (as defined below)" where the latter phrase appears in the first
         sentence of each of Sections 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4 of the Employment
         Agreement.

6.       By deleting paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of Section 3.2 of the
         Employment Agreement, and substituting the following for such
         paragraphs:

                  "(a) a material breach by the Company of any material
         provision of this Agreement; provided, however that a change in the
         Executive's duties, responsibilities, authority, or reporting
         relationships shall not constitute a basis for a "Good Reason"
         termination unless either (i) such change results in assignment to the
         Executive of a position that is at a lower rank than the rank held by
         the Executive immediately prior to the change, or (ii) the Executive is
         assigned tasks that would be materially inconsistent with those of the
         position assigned to the Executive, or the Executive, in any material
         respect, fails to be given the authority, power, responsibilities and
         duties as are inherent in the position assigned to the Executive and
         necessary to carry out the Executive's responsibilities and the duties
         of the position; or



<PAGE>   3



                  (b) relocation of Executive out of the Atlanta area."

7.       By substituting the following for Section 3.3(a) of the Employment
         Agreement:

                  "(a)     Termination Without Cause, Resignation for Good
         Reason. If the Executive's employment with the Company terminates at
         any time on or after the Tender Date, and prior to the two-year
         anniversary of the Tender Date, and any one of the paragraphs (i), (ii)
         or (iii) below are applicable to the termination, Executive shall be
         entitled to a lump sum severance payment of $300,000:

                           (i) the Executive resigns for Good Reason;

                           (ii) the Executive's employment is terminated for
         Cause under circumstances described in Section 3.1(c)(vi) (relating to
         termination for failure to meet performance expectations), none of the
         other circumstances of "Cause" as described in Section 3.1(c)(i)
         through (v) are applicable to the Executive, and there has not been
         willful and continued dereliction of duties by the Executive that is
         not corrected by the Executive within a reasonable period of time after
         a written demand for corrective action is delivered to the Executive by
         the Company's Chief Executive Officer; or

                           (iii) the Executive's employment is terminated by the
         Company without Cause."

8.       The first sentence of Section 3.3 (b) of the Employment Agreement is
         deleted in its entirety and there is substituted in its place the
         following:

         "If Executive voluntarily resigns for other than Good Reason, Executive
         shall not be entitled to any severance pay."

9.       By deleting the following sentence where it appears in Section 3.3(c)
         of the Employment Agreement:

         "If termination is for Cause pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(vi), then
         Executive shall be entitled to severance equal to pay for the remainder
         of the then-current term of this Agreement, or equal to one year's Base
         Salary at his then-current rate, whichever is greater."
