Employee will comply with and be bound by the Company's operating
policies, procedures and practices from time to time in effect during the

Employee hereunder, the Company shall pay Employee, and Employee agrees
to accept, the salary and other benefits as described below in this
Section 3.

4.      Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits.  The
Company and Employee acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the
specified term of this Agreement, Employee's employment is and shall
continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law, and that
Employee's employment with the Company may be terminated by either party
at any time for any or no reason.  If Employee's employment terminates
for any reason, Employee shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits,
damages, award or compensation other than as provided in Section 4(a)
below.  The rights and duties created by this Section 4 may not be
modified in any way except by a written agreement executed by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company.
        (a)     Severance Benefits.  If Employee's employment is
involuntarily terminated by the Company other than for Cause (as defined
below), Employee will be entitled to receive payment of severance
benefits equal to Employee's regular monthly salary until the earlier of
(i) six months after the termination date; or (ii) the date on which
Employee commences full-time employment, part-time employment, or some
combination thereof pursuant to which Employee works or is paid for an
equivalent of at least 30 hours per week (the "Severance Period").  Such
severance payments shall be made ratably over the Severance Period
according to the Company's standard payroll schedule.  Health insurance
benefits with the same coverage provided to Employee prior to the
termination (e.g. medical, dental, optical, mental health) and in all
other respects significantly comparable to those in place immediately
prior to the termination will be provided at the Company's cost over the
Severance Period.
Employee's entitlement to any severance benefits under this
Section 4(a) is conditioned upon Employee's execution and delivery to the
Company of (i) a general release of all claims in the form provided by
the Company at the time of termination and (ii) a resignation from all of
Employee's positions with the Company in a form satisfactory to the
Company.
        (b)      Cause.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" for
Employee's termination will exist at any time after the happening of one
or more of the following events:
        (i)     Employee's willful misconduct or gross negligence
in performance of his duties hereunder, as determined in good faith by
the Company, including Employee's refusal to comply in any material
respect with the legal directives of the Company's Chief Executive
Officer or Board of Directors so long as such directives are not
inconsistent with Employee's then-current position and duties, and such
refusal to comply is not remedied within 10 working days after written
notice from the Company to Employee, which written notice shall state
that failure to remedy such conduct may result in an involuntary
termination for Cause;
        (ii)    Dishonest or fraudulent conduct, a deliberate
attempt to do an injury to the Company or the conviction of a felony; or
        (iii)   Employee's incurable material breach of any
element of the Company's Confidential Information and Invention
Assignment Agreement, including, without limitation, Employee's theft or
other misappropriation of the Company's proprietary information.
5.      Confidentiality Agreement.  Employee shall sign, or has
signed, a Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement
(the "Confidentiality Agreement") substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A.  Employee hereby represents and warrants to the
Company that he has complied with all obligations under the
Confidentiality Agreement and agrees to continue to abide by the terms of
the Confidentiality Agreement and further agrees that the provisions of
the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this
Agreement or of Employee's employment relationship with the Company.
6.      Employee Covenants.  Employee hereby agrees that he shall
not, during the term of his employment pursuant to this Agreement and for
a period of either:  (i) two years following the expiration of the
Original Term; or (ii) three years following termination of this
Agreement by either party, whichever period is longer (the "Noncompete
Period"), do any of the following without the prior written consent of
the Company's Board of Directors:
(a)     Solicit Business.  Solicit or influence or attempt to
influence any client, customer or other person either directly or
indirectly, to direct his, her or its purchase of the Company's or

of the Company or Acquisition Corp.
(b)     Solicit Personnel.  Solicit or influence or attempt to
influence any person employed by the Company or Acquisition Corp. to
terminate or otherwise cease his or her employment with the Company or
Acquisition Corp. or become an employee of any competitor of the Company
or Acquisition Corp.
(c)     Compete.  Carry on any business or activity (whether
directly or indirectly, as a partner, stockholder, principal, agent,
director, affiliate, employee or consultant) which is competitive with
the business conducted by the Company or Acquisition Corp. (as conducted
now or during the Noncompete Period), nor engage in any other activities
that conflict with Employee's obligations to the Company or Acquisition
Corp.
(d)     Acknowledgment.  The Employee acknowledges and agrees
that the covenants set forth in this Section 6 are essential to the
growth and stability of the business of Acquisition Corp. during the five
years after acquisition of the Assets by the Company and to the
continuing viability of such business.
7.      Conflicts.  Employee represents that his performance of all
the terms of this Agreement will not breach any other agreement to which
Employee is a party.  Employee has not, and will not during the term of
this Agreement (and during the Noncompete Period with respect to Section
6 above only), enter into any oral or written agreement in conflict with
any of the provisions of this Agreement.  Employee further represents
that he is entering into or has entered into an employment relationship
with the Company of his own free will and that he has not been solicited

liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company's
business and/or assets shall assume the obligations under this Agreement
and agrees expressly to perform the obligations under this Agreement in
the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required

oral negotiations and prior writings, with respect to the subject matter
hereof.

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon
receipt, when delivered personally or by a nationally-recognized delivery
service (such as Federal Express or UPS), or 48 hours after being
deposited in the U.S. mail as certified or registered mail with postage
prepaid, if such notice is addressed to the party to be notified at such

EXHIBIT A
CONFIDENTIALITY AND ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT
In consideration of, and as a condition of my employment with
Business Resource Group, a California corporation (the "Company"), doing
business in the State of California located at 2150 North First Street,
Suite 101, San Jose, California  95131, I hereby represent to and agree
with the Company as follows:
1.      Purpose of Agreement.  I understand that the Company is
engaged in a continuous program of production, sales and marketing in
connection with its business and that it is critical for the Company to
preserve and protect its Proprietary Information (as defined below), its
rights in Inventions (as defined below) and in all related rights.
2.      Disclosure of Inventions.  I will promptly disclose in
confidence to the Company all inventions, improvements, designs, original
works of authorship, processes, computer software programs, databases and
trade secrets ("Inventions") that I make or conceive or first reduce to
practice or create, either alone or jointly with others, during the
period of my employment, whether or not in the course of my employment.
3.      Work for Hire; Assignment of Inventions.  I acknowledge and
agree that any copyrightable works prepared by me within the scope of my
employment are "works for hire" under the Copyright Act and that the
Company will be considered the author and owner of such copyrightable
works.  I agree that all Inventions, and all patent, copyright, trade
secret, and other intellectual property rights relating to such
Inventions, that (a) are developed using equipment, supplies, facilities
or trade secrets of the Company, (b) result from work performed by me for
the Company, or (c) relate to the Company's business or current or
anticipated research and development, will be the sole and exclusive
property of the Company and are hereby irrevocably assigned by me to the
Company.
4.      Assistance.  I agree to assist the Company in every proper
way to obtain for the Company and enforce patents, copyrights, mask work
rights, trade secret rights and other legal protections for the Company's
Inventions in any and all countries and I will execute any documents that
the Company may reasonably request for such purpose both before and after
my employment with the Company terminates.  I hereby appoint the
Secretary of the Company as my attorney-in-fact to execute documents on
my behalf for this purpose.
5.      Proprietary Information.  I understand  that my employment by
the Company creates a relationship of confidence and trust with respect
to any information of a confidential or secret nature that may be
disclosed to me by the Company that relates to the business of the
Company or to the business of any parent, subsidiary, affiliate, customer
or supplier of the Company or any other party with whom the Company
agrees to hold information of such party in confidence ("Proprietary
Information").  Such Proprietary Information includes but is not limited
to Inventions, marketing plans, product plans, business strategies,
financial information, forecasts, personnel information and customer
lists.
6.      Confidentiality.  At all times, both during my employment and
after its termination, I will keep and hold all such Proprietary
Information in strict confidence and trust, and I will not use or
disclose any of such Proprietary Information without the prior written
consent of the Company, except as may be necessary to perform my duties
as an employee of the Company for the benefit of the Company.  Upon
termination of my employment with the Company, I will promptly deliver to
the Company all documents and materials of any nature pertaining to my
work, including without limitation all documents and materials containing
Proprietary Information.  My obligations under Section 5 above and this
Section 6 shall survive any termination of my employment with the
Company.
7.      Solicitation of Employees, Consultants and Other Parties.  I
agree that during the term of my employment or consulting relationship
with the Company, and for a period of 24 months following the termination
of my relationship with the Company for any reason, I shall not directly
or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the Company's
employees or consultants to terminate their relationship with the
Company, or attempt any of the foregoing, either for myself or any other
person or entity.  For a period of 24 months following termination of my
relationship with the Company for any reason, I shall not solicit any
licensor to or customer of the Company or licensee of the Company's
products, that are known to me, with respect to any business, products or
services that are competitive to the products or services offered by the
Company or under development as of the date of termination of my
relationship with the Company.
8.      No Breach of Prior Agreement.  I represent that my
performance of all the terms of this Agreement and my duties as an
employee of the Company will not breach any invention assignment,
proprietary information or similar agreement with any former employer or
other party.  I represent that I will not bring with me to the Company or
use in the performance of my duties for the Company any documents or
materials of a former employer that are not generally available to the
public or have not been legally transferred to the Company.
9.      Severability.  In the event that any provision of this
Agreement is found by a court, arbitrator or other tribunal to be
illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall not be
voided, but shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible under
applicable law, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect.
10.     No Duty to Employ.  I understand that this Agreement does not
constitute a contract of employment or obligate the Company to employ me
for any stated period of time.  This Agreement shall be effective as of
the first day of my employment by the Company.
11.     Assignment.  I agree that this Agreement may be assigned to
any successor or parent corporation of the Company.
12.     Governing Law.  This Agreement and all acts and transactions
pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto
shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws
of the State of California, without reference to rules of conflict of
law.
13.     Remedies.  I understand and acknowledge that any breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement by me is likely to cause or threaten
irreparable harm to the Company, and, accordingly, I agree that in such
event, the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief to protect its
interest therein, including but not limited to preliminary and permanent
injunctive or mandatory relief, as well as money damages.  This Section
13 shall survive any termination of my employment with the Company.
14.     Entire Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire
Agreement and understanding of the parties relating to its subject matter
and merges all prior discussions and agreements between them.  No
modification or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights
under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing signed by both
parties.
15.     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Confidentiality
and Assignment Agreement as of August ___, 1999.
