disclose,  in  writing,  all  information,  ideas,  concepts,  improvements,
discoveries  and  inventions,  whether  patentable  or  not,  and whether or not
reduced  to  practice,  which  are conceived, developed, made or acquired by the
Company,  either  individually,  or jointly with others, and which relate to the
business,  products  or  services  of the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates,  irrespective  of  whether  such  information,  idea,  concept,
improvement,  discovery  or  invention  was  conceived, developed, discovered or
acquired by Executive on the job, or elsewhere (collectively, the "Inventions").
                                                                   ----------
The  Company  and  Executive  have  agreed  as follows regarding the Inventions:

          (a)     All inventions are, and shall be, the property of the Company.
In this context, all drawings, memoranda, notes, records, files, correspondence,
manuals, models, specifications, computer programs, maps and all other writings,
or materials of any time embodying any such Inventions are and shall be the sole
and  exclusive  property  of  the  Company.

          (b)     Executive  hereby specifically sells, assigns and transfers to
the  Company  all  of his worldwide right, title and interest in and to all such
Inventions,  and  any  United  States  or  foreign  applications  for  patents,
inventor's  certificates  or  other  industrial  rights  that  may  be  filed


                                      -3-
<PAGE>
thereon,  including  divisions,  continuations,  continuations-in-part, reissues
and/or  extensions  thereof,  and applications for registration of any names and
marks  included  therewith.  Both  during  the  Employment  Term and thereafter,
Executive  shall  assist  the  Company  and  its  nominees  at  all times in the
protection  of  such  Inventions,  both  in  the  United  States and all foreign
countries,  including  but not limited to, the execution of all lawful oaths and
all assignment documents, not inconsistent with this Agreement, requested by the
Company,  or  its  nominee  in  connection  with  the  preparation, prosecution,
issuance or enforcement of any applications for United States or foreign letters
patent,  including  divisions,  continuations,  continuations-in-part,  reissue,
and/or extensions thereof, and any application for the registration of names and
marks  included  therewith.

          (c)     Moreover, if during the Employment Term, Executive creates any
original work of authorship which is the subject matter of copyright relating to
the  Company's  business,  products,  or  services, whether such work is created
solely  by  Executive  or  jointly  with others, the Company shall be deemed the
author  of  such  work  if the work is prepared by Executive in the scope of his
employment; or, if the work is not prepared by Executive within the scope of his
employment,  but  is  specifically ordered by the Company as a contribution to a
collective  work,  as a part of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, as a
translation,  as  a  supplementary work, as a compilation or as an instructional
text,  then  the  work  shall  be  considered to be a work made for hire and the
Company  shall  be  the  author  of the work.  In the event such work is neither
prepared  by  the  Executive within the scope of his employment or is not a work
specially  ordered  and deemed to be a work made for hire, then Executive hereby
agrees  to  assign,  and  by  these  presents,  does  assign,  to the Company an
undivided  one-half interest in and to all of Executive's worldwide right, title
and  interest  in and to the work and all rights or copyright therein, including
but  not  limited to, the execution of all formal assignment documents requested
by  the  Company  or  its nominee, not inconsistent with this Agreement, and the
execution  of all lawful oaths and applications for registration of copyright in
the  United  States  and  foreign  countries.

affiliated  with  the  Company,  to  terminate  his,  her  or  its employment or
affiliation  with  the  Company;

          (b)     induce,  or  attempt to induce, any person, business or entity
which is or becomes a customer or supplier of the Company, or which otherwise is
a contracting party with the Company, as of the Termination Date, or at any time

Company;  provided,  however,  that  Executive's  employment  may  be terminated
          --------   -------
pursuant  to  this  paragraph  11(d)  only if such termination is approved by at

been  given  written  notice  by  the  Company  of  the specific reason for such
termination  and  an opportunity for Executive, together with his counsel, to be
heard  before  the  Board  of  Directors.  Members of the Board of Directors may
participate  in any hearing that is required pursuant to this paragraph 11(d) by
means  of  conference  telephone or similar communications equipment whereby all
persons participating in the hearing can hear and speak to each other; provided,
                                                                       --------

and  responsibilities  that  are  materially  inconsistent  with such positions;
provided,  however,  that  prior  to Executive's termination of employment under
--------   -------
this  paragraph  12(a), Executive must give written notice to the Company of any
such  breach,  reduction  or assignment and such breach, reduction or assignment
must  remain  uncorrected  for  30  days  following  such  written  notice;

          (b)     upon  a  Change  in  Control,  or  within  twelve  (12) months
thereafter,  where  a  "Change  in  Control"  is defined to mean (i) any merger,
consolidation or reorganization in which the Company is not the surviving entity
(or survives only as a subsidiary of an entity), (ii) any sale, lease, exchange,
