undertakings herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

         1.       Employment, Duties and Acceptance.

                  1.1 Services. The Corporation hereby employs Executive, for
the Term (as hereinafter defined in Section 2 hereof), to render services to the

         2.       Term of Employment.

         The term of Executive's employment under this Agreement (the "Term")
shall commence on August 12, 2002 (the "Commencement Date") and shall terminate
on November 7, 2005, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Sections 9 or 5.2 of
this Agreement; provided, however, if the Corporation shall fail to give
Executive notice of nonrenewal not less than 90 days prior to the scheduled
expiration of the Term or any extension thereof, the Term shall automatically be
extended for an additional one (1) year period. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the provisions of this Agreement governing Protection
of Confidential Information shall continue in effect as specified in Section 10
hereof.

         3.       Base Salary and Expense Reimbursement.

                  3.1 Base Salary. During the Term, as full compensation for the
Services, the Corporation agrees to pay Executive a minimum base salary ("Base
Salary") at the annual rate of $240,000 for the period from August 12, 2002 to
August 11, 2003 (the "First Year"), increasing annually thereafter in $18,000
increments ("Salary Increments"). During the First Year, an amount equal to
$80,000 of the Base Salary shall be accrued and paid to the Executive at such
time as the net cash provided by the operating activities of the Corporation is
greater than zero for a period of three (3) consecutive months. Upon satisfying
this requirement, the Executive shall be paid his accrued salary in monthly
installments of $10,000 until such time as all of the Executive's accrued salary
has been paid. In the event the Corporation is unable to pay a Salary Increment,
the Board of Directors of the Corporation may elect to defer such payment. In
the event of deferment, the Salary Increment shall continue to be accrued until
such time as the Corporation is financially able to make such payments. Base
Salary is subject to withholding and other applicable taxes, payable during the

practices, but not less frequently than monthly.

stock options previously granted to the Executive pursuant to the employment
agreement between the Corporation and the Executive effective as of July 1, 2002
(the "Previous Employment Agreement") are hereby cancelled. In connection with
this cancellation, the Corporation shall on the date hereof grant the Executive:

options (the "NQSO Options") to purchase up to 329,632 shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock, at a per share exercise price of $.92. The Options

upon the Executive any right (i) normally associated with the ownership of
capital stock; (ii) to continue in the employ of the Corporation or any
affiliate of the Corporation; or (iii) to interfere in any way with the right of
the Corporation to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions

private sale transaction or via a tender offer, the Enterprise Value shall be

                           sale of safety related work clothing, and which
                           conducts or solicits business, or transacts with
                           supplier or customers located within the United
                           States or Puerto Rico;

                           (iii) become employed by a firm, corporation,
                           partnership or joint venture which competes with the
                           business of the Corporation within the United States
                           or Puerto Rico; or

                           (iv) approach, solicit business from, or otherwise do
                           business or deal with any customer of the Corporation

                           to any provided by the Corporation.

                           10.3.2 Anti-Raiding. Executive agrees that during the
term of his employment hereunder, and, thereafter for a period of one (1) year,
he will not, as a principal, agent, employee, employer, consultant, director or
partner of any person, firm, corporation or business entity other than the
Corporation, or in any individual or representative capacity whatsoever,
directly or indirectly, without the prior express written consent of the
Corporation approach, counsel or attempt to induce any person who is then in the
employ of the Corporation to leave the employ of the Corporation or employ or
attempt to employ any such person or persons who at any time during the
preceding six months was in the employ of the Corporation.

                           10.3.3 Executive's Acknowledgements. Executive
acknowledges (i) that his position with the Corporation requires the performance
of services which are special, unique, and extraordinary in character and places
him in a position of confidence and trust with the customers and employees of
the Corporation, through which, among other things, he shall obtain knowledge of
the Corporation's "technical information" and "know-how" and become acquainted
with its customers, in which matters the Corporation has substantial proprietary
interests; (ii) that the restrictive covenants set forth above are necessary in
order to protect and maintain such proprietary interests and the other
legitimate business interests of the Corporation; and (iii) that the Corporation
would not have entered into this Agreement unless such covenants were included
herein.

                           Executive also acknowledges that the business of the
Corporation presently will extend throughout the United States and Puerto Rico,
and that he will personally supervise and engage in such business on behalf of
Corporation and, accordingly, it is reasonable that the restrictive covenants
set forth above are not more limited as to geographic area then is set forth
therein. Executive also represents to the Corporation that the enforcement of
such covenants will not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood or impose an
undue hardship on the Executive.

                  10.4     Severability. If any of the provisions of this
Section 10, or any part thereof, is hereinafter construed to be invalid or
unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of such provision or
provisions, which shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid
portions. If any of the provisions of this Section 10, or any part thereof, is
held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision, the area
covered thereby or the type of conduct restricted therein, the parties agree
that the court making such determination shall have the power to modify the
duration, geographic area and/or other terms of such provision and, as so
modified, said provision(s) shall then be enforceable. In the event that the
courts of any one or more jurisdictions shall hold such provisions wholly or
partially unenforceable by reason of the scope thereof or otherwise, it is the
intention of the parties hereto that such determination not bar or in any way
affect the Corporation's right to the relief provided for herein in the courts
of any other jurisdictions as to breaches or threatened breaches of such
provisions in such other jurisdictions, the above provisions as they relate to
each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and
independent covenants.

                  10.5     Injunctive Relief. Executive acknowledges and agrees
that, because of the unique and extraordinary nature of his services, any breach
or threatened breach of the provisions of Sections 10.1, 10.2, or 10.3 hereof
will cause irreparable injury and incalculable harm to the Corporation, and the
Corporation shall, accordingly, be entitled to injunctive and other equitable
relief for such breach or threatened breach and that resort by the Corporation
to such injunctive or other equitable relief shall not be deemed to waive or to
limit in any respect any right or remedy which the Corporation may have with
respect to such breach or threatened breach. The Corporation and Executive agree
that any such action for injunctive or equitable relief shall be heard in a
state or federal court situate in Rhode Island and each of the parties hereto,
hereby agrees to accept service of process by registered mail and to otherwise
consent to the jurisdiction of such courts.

                  10.6     Expenses of Enforcement of Covenants. In the event
that any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity is brought to enforce
the covenants contained in Sections 10.1, 10.2, or 10.3 hereof or to obtain
money damages for the breach thereof, the party prevailing in any such action,
suit or other proceeding shall be entitled upon demand, to reimbursement from
the other party for all expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred in connection therewith.

                  10.7     Separate Agreement. The provisions of this Section 10
shall be construed as an agreement on the part of the Executive independent of
any other part of this Agreement or any other agreement, and the existence of
any claim or cause of action of the Executive against the Corporation, whether
predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the
enforcement by the Corporation of the provisions of this Section 10.

         11.      Indemnification.

         The Corporation shall provide the Executive (including his heirs,
executors and administrators) with coverage under a standard directors and
officers liability insurance policy at the Corporation's expense to the same
extent as provided for any other director, officer or trustee of the
Corporation. In addition, the Corporation shall indemnify the Executive (and his
heirs, executors and administrators) to the fullest extent permitted under the
law of its state of incorporation against all expenses and liabilities
reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of any action, suit
or proceeding in which the Executive may be involved by reason of his having
been a director or officer of the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof. Such
expenses and liabilities shall include, but not be limited to, judgments, court
costs and attorneys' fees and the cost of reasonable settlements, such
settlements to be approved by the Board if such action is brought against the
Executive in his capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation or any
subsidiary thereof. The Corporation shall, upon the request of the Executive,
advance to the Executive such amounts as necessary to cover expenses, including
without limitation legal fees and expenses, incurred by the Executive in
connection with any suit or proceeding in which the Executive may be involved by
reason of his being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or
of any subsidiary thereof. Such indemnity and advance of expenses, however,
shall not extend to matters as to which the Executive is finally adjudged to be
liable for willful misconduct in the performance of his duties.

         12.      Arbitration.

         Except with respect to any proceeding brought under Section 10 hereof,
any controversy, claim, or dispute between the parties, directly or indirectly,
concerning this Employment Agreement or the breach hereof, or the subject matter
hereof, including questions concerning the scope and applicability of this
arbitration clause, shall be finally settled by arbitration in New York County,
New York pursuant to the rules then applying of the American Arbitration
Association. The arbitrators shall consist of one representative selected by the
Corporation, one representative selected by the Executive and one representative
selected by the first two arbitrators. The parties agree to expedite the
arbitration proceeding in every way, so that the arbitration proceeding shall be
commenced within thirty (30) days after request therefore is made, and shall
continue thereafter, without interruption, and that the decision of the
arbitrators shall be handed down within thirty (30) days after the hearings in
the arbitration proceedings are closed. The arbitrators shall have the right and
authority to assess the cost of the arbitration proceedings and to determine how
their decision or determination as to each issue or matter in dispute may be
implemented or enforced. The decision in writing of any two of the arbitrators
shall be binding and conclusive on all of the parties to this Agreement. Should
either the Corporation or the Executive fail to appoint an arbitrator as
required by this Section 12 within thirty (30) days after receiving written
notice from the other party to do so, the arbitrator appointed by the other
party shall act for all of the parties and his decision in writing shall be
binding and conclusive on all of the parties to this Employment Agreement. Any
decision or award of the arbitrators shall be final and conclusive on the
parties to this Agreement; judgment upon such decision or award may be entered
in any competent Federal or state court located in the United States of America;
and the application may be made to such court for confirmation of such decision
or award for any order of enforcement and for any other legal remedies that may
be necessary to effectuate such decision or award.

         13.      Notices.

         All notices, requests, consents and other communications required or
permitted to be given hereunder, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been duly given if delivered personally or sent by prepaid telegram, telecopy or
mailed first-class, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail (notices
sent by telegram or mailed shall be deemed to have been given on the date sent),
to the parties at their respective addresses hereinabove set forth or to such
other address as either party shall designate by notice in writing to the other
in accordance herewith.

         14.      General.

                  14.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the local laws of the State of
Delaware.

                  14.2 Captions. The section headings contained herein are for
reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

                  14.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire
agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter
hereof, and supersedes in their entirety all prior agreements, arrangements and
understandings, written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof
including, but not limited to, the Previous Employment Agreement. No
representation, promise or inducement has been made by either party that is not
embodied in this Agreement, and neither party shall be bound by or liable for
any alleged representation, promise or inducement not so set forth.

                  14.4 Appointment of Additional Officers. The appointment by
the Corporation of a new President and/or Chief Financial Officer shall not
affect the validity of this Agreement.

                  14.5 Severability. If any of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason, unenforceable, such provision shall
be deemed severable from, and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of, the remaining portions of this Agreement.

                  14.6 Waiver. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any
provision of this Agreement by any other party shall not operate or be construed
as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same provision or any other
provision hereof.

                  14.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

                  14.8 Assignability. This Agreement, and Executive's rights and
obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by Executive. The Corporation may
assign its rights, together with its obligations, hereunder in connection with
any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of its
business or assets; in any event the rights and obligations of the Corporation
hereunder shall be binding on its successors or assigns, whether by merger,
consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of its business or
assets. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
Executive and his executors, administrators, heirs and legal representatives.

                  14.9 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified,
superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended and the terms or covenants hereof may
be waived, only by a written instrument executed by both of the parties hereto,
or in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. No superseding
instrument, amendment, modification, cancellation, renewal or extension hereof
shall require the consent or approval of any person other than the parties
hereto. The failure of either party at any time or times to require performance
of any provision hereof shall in no matter affect the right at a later time to
enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or
covenant contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any
one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or
continuing waiver of any such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other
term or covenant contained in this Agreement.
