affiliates may engage in during the term of this Agreement

         (h) Covenants as Essential Elements of This Agreement. It is understood
by and between the parties hereto that the foregoing covenants contained in
Sections 7 (a) and (b) are essential elements of this Agreement, and that but
not for the agreement by the Executive to comply with such covenants, the
Company would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement. Such covenants by
the Executive shall be construed to be agreements independent of any other
provisions of this Agreement. The existence of any other claim or cause of
provisions of action, whether predicated on any other provision in this
Agreement, or otherwise, as a result of the relationship between the parties
shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of such covenants against the
Executive.

         (i) Survival After Termination of Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement the covenants in Sections 7 (a) and
(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Executive's
employment with the Company.

         (j) Remedies.

                  (i) The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company's
remedy at law for the breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of
Section 7 (a) or (b) herein would be inadequate and the breach shall be per se
deemed as causing irreparable harm to the Company. In recognition of this fact
in the even of a breach by the Executive of any of the provisions of Section 7
(a) or (b), the Executive agrees that, in addition to any remedy at law
available to the Company, including, but not limited to monetary damages, all
rights of the Executive to payment or otherwise under this Agreement and all
amounts then to thereafter due to the Executive for the Company under the
Agreement may be terminated and the Company, without posting bond, shall be
entitled to obtain, and the Executive agrees not to oppose the Company's request
for equitable relief in the form of specific performance , temporary restraining
order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may
then be available to the Company.

                  (ii) The Executive acknowledges that the granting of a
temporary injunction, temporary restraining order or permanent injunction merely
prohibiting the use of Proprietary Information would not be an adequate remedy
upon the breach or threatened breach of Section 7 (a) or (b) and consequently
agrees, upon proof of any such breach, to the granting of injunctive relief
prohibiting any form of competition with the Company. Nothing herein contained
shall be construed as prohibiting the Company for pursuing any other remedies
available to it for such breach or threatened breach.

         8. Indemnification. The Executive shall continue to be covered by the
Articles of Incorporation and/or Bylaws of the Company with respect to matters
occurring on or prior


                                       11

to the date of termination of the Executive's employment with the Company,
subject to all provisions of Florida and Federal law and the Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company then in effect. Such reasonable
expenses, including attorneys' fees, that may be covered by the Articles of
Incorporation and/or Bylaws of the Company shall be paid by the Company on a
current basis in accordance with such provision, the Company's Articles of
Incorporation and Florida law.

         To the extent that any such payments by the Company pursuant to the
Company Articles of Incorporation and/or Bylaws may be subject to repayment by
the Executive pursuant to the provisions of the Company's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws, or pursuant to Florida or Federal law, such repayment
shall be due and payable by the Executive to the Company within twelve (12)
months after termination of all proceedings, if any, which relate to such
repayments and to the Company's affairs for the period prior to the date of
termination of the Executive's employment with the Company and as to which
Executive has been covered by such applicable provisions.

         9. Withholding. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments
required to be made by the Company hereunder to the Executive or the Executive's
estate or beneficiaries shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if
any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Company may reasonable
determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation in
lieu of withholding such amounts, the Company may accept other arrangements
pursuant to which it is satisfied that such tax and other payroll obligations
will be satisfied in a manner complying with applicable law or regulation.

the Company, or in the case of the Company to its principal office set forth in
the first paragraph of this Agreement, or at such other place as it may
designate.

         11. Wavier. Unless agreed in writing, the failure of either party, at
any time, to require performance by the other of any provisions hereunder shall
not effect its right thereafter to enforce the same, nor shall a wavier by
either party of any breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a
wavier of any other preceding or succeeding breach of any term or provision of
this Agreement. No extension of time for the performance of and obligation or
act shall be deemed to be an extension of time for the performance of any other
obligation or act hereunder

contemporaneous agreements or understandings among the parties hereto concerning
