such capacity under the terms set forth herein.


                                   AGREEMENT

     In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements
contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged by Executive and Employer, the parties agree as

1.   EMPLOYMENT AND TERM OF EMPLOYMENT.

     Employer hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby accepts employment
with Employer until terminated as provided in Section 5.

2.   DUTIES AND AUTHORITY.

     2.01 DUTIES AND POSITION OF EXECUTIVE.  Executive shall undertake and
assume the responsibility for those duties that Employer's Board of Directors
shall, from time to time, assign to Executive.  Executive's principal duties as
of the date of this Agreement shall be and are those typically performed by a
President of an operating division.

<PAGE>   2


     Executive shall, at all times, faithfully and to the best of his ability,
experience and talents, perform the duties set forth herein or to which
Executive may, in the future, be assigned, always acting solely in the best
interests of the Employer.




     2.02 BUSINESS UNITS/PROFIT CENTERS ASSIGNED TO EXECUTIVE.

     (a) Executive shall have specific profit/loss management responsibility
for profit centers or business units which are, from time to time, assigned to
him by the Chairman or the Board of Directors of Mark VII subject to
Executive's consent.  Once so assigned and accepted, a profit center may not be
reassigned or withdrawn from the scope of Executive's management responsibility
without his consent.

     (b) All business opportunities arising out of or related to logistics
and/or transportation services which are encountered or developed by Executive
belong to Mark VII. In each instance, the Board or senior management or Mark
VII shall determine whether or not the business opportunity or venture shall be
pursued, and if so, under what terms and conditions and whether or not it is to
be assigned to the management supervision of Executive pursuant to this
agreement.

     (c) Each business opportunity, profit center or business unit will be
conducted pursuant to an annual business plan approved by the Board or senior
management of Mark VII.  Following any month when plan results are not being
attained, Mark VII has the unilateral right to discontinue the business unit,
profit center or venture with no further claim of interest on the part of
Executive.

     2.03 OTHER EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS OF MARK VII.  Executive has no authority to
engage or employ other agents or employees of Employer, Mark VII or any of its
subsidiaries without the advance express consent of the Board of Employer.
Executive may not elect, without advance approval of senior management of Mark
VII, to share his bonus with any other employee or agent of Mark VII.  No other
agent or employee of Mark VII shall be permitted to utilize the business units
or profit centers assigned to the management of Executive to provide
transportation services or logistics support to customers assigned, for
commission purposes, to that employee or agent, without advance approval of
senior management of Mark VII.

     2.04 TIME DEVOTED TO EMPLOYMENT. Executive shall devote full time and
attention to performance of  assigned employment duties. Executive will not be
involved in any transportation ventures other than those of the Employer
without the advance written authorization of the Employer's Board of Directors.



                                      2
<PAGE>   3


     It is also understood that Executive is not hereby precluded from engaging
in limited appropriate civic, charitable or religious activities or from
devoting limited time to private investments that do not compete with the
business of Employer.

3.   COMPENSATION.

     During the term of this Agreement, Employer shall pay to Executive the
following compensation:




     3.01 BASE SALARY.  Executive shall be paid an initial base salary of One
Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars and No/100 ($125,000) per year ("Base
Salary"), in equal weekly installments.  The Employer's Board of Directors may
increase the salary of Executive at any time; provided, however, that the Board
may not reduce the Base Salary specified herein.

     3.02 BONUS.  In addition to the Base Salary, in each fiscal year
(commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995), Employer will
provide a bonus to Executive payable within 90 days following the close of
Employer's fiscal year.  The annual bonus shall be an amount equal to 25% of
the pretax profit (computed on the basis of generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied) earned by the business units and profit
centers assigned to the management responsibility of Executive.  With respect
to certain business units or profit centers assigned to the management
responsibility of Executive as to which Employer pays a sales commission to
another agent or employee, including Alcoa, ACX Logistics, Coors, Golden
Aluminum and Golden Technologies, the bonus provided to Executive will be
limited to 15%.

     The calculation of pre-tax profit shall incorporate the following factors:

     (a) In the case of each new business unit or profit center assigned to the
management responsibility of Executive, senior management of Mark VII shall
determine, on a case by case basis, whether or not the start up losses, or what
portion thereof, shall be charged against pre-tax profits earned in other
business units assigned to the management supervision of Executive.

     (b) In no event shall pre-tax profit include rail volume incentive credits
or credit for unbilled freight.

     (c) Each unit will be charged a $7.50 administrative fee for each invoice.




                                      3
<PAGE>   4
     (d) Each unit will be charged interest expense on receivables at a rate
equal to the current cost of funds borrowed by Mark VII.                    

     (e) All customer credit extended must have the prior written approval of
the Mark VII accounting office in Indianapolis.  Any bad debt resulting from
unapproved credit shall be charged in full against the bonus accrual of
Executive.

     (f) As to any transportation service requiring utilization of Mark VII
operated equipment (including power units or refrigerated trailers but
excluding dry vans), for each quarter in which weekly net operating profit from
the utilization of Mark VII equipment is less than $300 per unit a week the 25%
bonus will be reduced to 15%.

     (g) All accounting issues or questions shall be barred on the anniversary
date of any transaction in question, subject to no further examination or
question thereafter.  Any dispute as to any matter related to this contract or
the business to which it is related, between Executive and Mark VII, shall be
resolved by arbitration rather than judicial proceedings.

     In each year pretax profit shall be reduced by the amount of the following
items:

     (h) All charges of Employer to any affiliated company for services
rendered, said services to be charged at cost;

     (i) Any gain on the sale, casualty or other disposition of any capital
asset of the Employer;

     (j) Any other income which was not the result of ordinary operations of
the profit center or business unit.

     The Board of Directors of Employer shall make the sole and final
determination of what constitutes "pre-tax profit" as defined above.

     3.03 CAR ALLOWANCE.  Executive shall receive $500 a month as a car
allowance, which shall constitute full reimbursement for all related costs he
incurs in operating his private automobile including insurance, fuel, oil,
filters, hoses, belts, license tags, tires and sales tax upon acquisition.

     3.04 FRINGE BENEFITS/VACATION.  Executive shall receive standard Mark VII
fringe benefits, including three (3) weeks of vacation with pay each year.

     3.05 REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES.  Employer shall reimburse Executive for
ordinary, necessary and reasonable business expenses incurred to conduct or
promote Employer's business, including travel and entertainment, provided
Executive submits an itemization of such expenses and supporting documentation
therefor, all according to Employer's generally applicable procedures.

4.   NONDISCLOSURE AND NONCOMPETITION.

     Executive hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

     4.01 CONFIDENTIALITY.  Executive acknowledges that as a result of his
employment by Employer, he has, in the past, used and acquired and, in the
future, will use and acquire knowledge and information used by Employer in its
business and which is not generally available to the public or to persons in
the transportation industry, including, without limitation, its future
products, services, patents and trademarks; designs; plans; specifications;
models; computer software programs; test results; data; manuals; methods of
accounting; financial information; devices; systems; procedures; manuals;
internal reports; lists of shippers and carriers; methods used for and
preferred by its customers; and the pricing structure of its existing and
contemplated products and service, except such information known by Executive
prior to his employment by Employer ("Confidential Information").  As a
material inducement to Employer to enter into this Agreement, and to pay to
Executive the compensation set forth herein, Executive agrees that, during the
term of this Agreement and subject to the provisions of section 6.05 below,
Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, divulge or disclose to any
person, for any purpose, for a period of three (3) years after the termination
of this Agreement, any Confidential Information, except to those persons
authorized by Employer to receive Confidential Information and then only if use
by such person is for Employer's benefit.

     4.02 COVENANT AGAINST COMPETITION.  During the term of this Agreement and
subject to the provisions of section 6.05 below, for a period of three years
after the termination of this Agreement, Executive shall not have any interest,
or be engaged by, directly or indirectly, any business or enterprise that is in
the business of providing motor freight transportation services or arranging
for the transportation of goods, including any business that acts as a licensed
property broker or shipper's agent, which is directly competitive with any
aspect of the business Employer now conducts or which Employer is conducting or
is in the process of developing at the time of any competitive actions by
Executive ("Prohibited Activity") except to the extent provided in section 2.
For purposes of this Section 4.02, Executive shall be deemed to have an
"interest in or be engaged by a business or enterprise" if Executive acts (a)
individually, (b) as a partner, officer, director, shareholder, employee,
associate, agent or owner of any entity or (c) as an advisor, consultant,
lender or other person related, directly or indirectly, to any business or
entity that is engaging in, or is planning to engage in, any Prohibited
Activity.  Ownership of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding capital
stock of a publicly traded entity that engages in any Prohibited Activity shall
not be a violation of this Section 4.02.

     4.03 EMPLOYMENT OF OTHER EMPLOYEES BY EXECUTIVE.  During the term of this
Agreement and, subject to the provisions of section 6.05 below, for a period
of three (3) years after the termination of this Agreement, Executive shall
not directly or indirectly solicit



                                      5
<PAGE>   6
for employment, or employ, except on behalf of Employer, any person who was
an employee of Employer at any time during the six (6) months  preceding such
solicitation or employment.                    

     4.04 JUDICIAL AMENDMENT.  If a court of competent jurisdiction determines
any of the limitations contained in this Agreement are unreasonable and may not
be enforced as herein agreed, the parties hereto expressly agree this Agreement
shall be amended to delete all limitations judicially determined to be
unreasonable and to substitute for those limitations found to be unreasonable
the maximum limitations such court finds to be reasonable under the
circumstances.

     4.05 IRREPARABLE INJURY.  Executive acknowledges that his abilities and
the services he will provide to Employer are unique and that his failure to
perform his obligations under this Section 4 would cause Employer irreparable
harm and injury.  Executive further acknowledges that the only adequate remedy
is one that would prevent him from breaching the terms of Section 4.  As a
result, Executive and Employer agree that Employer's remedies may include
preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order or other injunctive relief
against any threatened or continuing breach of this Section 4 by Executive.
Nothing contained in this Section 4.05 shall prohibit Employer from seeking and
obtaining any other remedy, including monetary damages, to which it may be
entitled.

5.   TERMINATION.

     5.01 EVENTS CAUSING TERMINATION.  This Agreement shall terminate upon the
first of the following events to occur:

     a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 5.02(c) and 6.02, the term of

Executive provides the other with 30 days notice of termination;

     b) On the date of Executive's death;

adversely affect Employer's business or operations provided Executive fails to
remedy or cease said acts within said fifteen (15) day period;




                                      6
<PAGE>   7


     f) On the date Executive resigns or, at the Employer's option, the date
Executive commits any act that is a material breach of this Agreement;
     
     g) At Executive's option, on the date Employer commits any act that is a
material breach of this Agreement; or

     h) At Employer's option, upon fulfilling the "executive buyout" provisions
of Section 5.02(c) below.

     5.02 DEFINITIONS.  For purposes of Section 5.01 the following definitions
shall apply:

     a) "Disability" means Executive's inability, because of sickness or other
incapacity, whether physical or mental, to perform his duties under this
Agreement for a period in excess of ninety (90) substantially consecutive days,
as professionally determined by two medical doctors licensed to practice
medicine, one of which is selected by the Employer and one of which is selected
by Executive.  In the event the doctors should disagree as to whether Executive
is disabled, they shall select a third licensed medical doctor to make such
termination which shall be binding on the parties hereto.

     b) "Cause" means (i) a willful failure by Executive to substantially
perform his duties hereunder, other than a failure resulting from Executive's
incapacity to do so because of physical or mental illness, (ii) a willful act
by Executive that constitutes gross misconduct and which is materially
injurious to Employer, including malicious or disparaging remarks about other
Directors, Officers of Mark VII or its subsidiaries, (iii) Executive's
commitment of any act of dishonesty toward Employer, theft of corporate
property or unethical business conduct or (iv) Executive's conviction of any
felony involving dishonest, or immoral conduct.

     c) "Executive Buyout" includes:

         1. The right of Employer to terminate this agreement with no further
payment of compensation to Executive in the event the profit centers assigned
to the management responsibility of Executive fail, collectively, to earn
pre-tax profit (as defined in Paragraph 3.02 above) of $250,000 in 1995 or any
calendar year thereafter.

         2. Following any calendar year in which the profit centers assigned to
Executive collectively earn pretax profit of $250,000 or more, Employer may
terminate this Agreement by paying Executive an amount equal to three times his
previous year's W-2 reported income from Employer, but in no event less than
One Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,400,000).  Such payment shall
constitute liquidated damages which Executive hereby agrees to accept as his
exclusive remedy for any breach of the obligations of the Employer hereunder
hereby waiving any right to punitive or exemplary damages.

         3. In the event of termination by Employer subsequent to any year in
which profit centers assigned to Executive were, collectively profitable but
in which pretax profit of 
                                      7

<PAGE>   8

at least $250,000 was not attained, Employer may elect to extend provisions of 
Section 4 hereof pursuant to Paragraph 6.05(b) below only by making advance 
annual payments to Executive in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand 
Dollars ($250,000) for the first year, Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) 
for the second year and at Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) for the
third year.

4. 
Employer retains the unilateral right to sell or terminate any business unit
assigned to the management of Executive with no further approval or subsequent
right of Executive to pretax profit bonus beyond the date of sale or
termination.  Provided, however, that termination of the unit devoted to
providing service to Frito-Lay, its subsidiaries, and any other PepsiCo
affiliates assigned to Executive by Employer, will require Employer to provide
Executive with the benefit of the buyout provisions of this Subparagraph C.  In
the event the business unit or profit center devoted to providing service to
Frito-Lay, its subsidiaries, or other affiliates of PepsiCo assigned to
Executive, is sold by Employer to a financially reliable purchaser, purchaser's
assumption of the buyout obligations of Employer to Executive under this
Subparagraph C will constitute full and complete satisfaction of the Employer's
obligations to Executive hereunder.

6.

6.01 PAYMENTS UPON EXECUTIVE'S DEATH, OR DISABILITY.  Upon the termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.01 (b) (death), or Section 5.01 (c)

include, without limitation, an interest as a partner, officer, director,
stockholder, advisor or employee of or lender to such a supplier. An ownership
