                  its business;

         (iv)     Executive's conviction of, or pleading of guilty, or no

terminate this Agreement and Executive's employment hereunder at any time after
receipt of notice from Executive.

                                                                               3

Executive's own time, and (b) which does not relate directly to or have any
application to the business of Employer or any Warrantech affiliate or to their

Agreement, in any and all countries.

period of Executive's employment by Employer and during the one year period
immediately following Executive's employment by Employer or any Warrantech
subsidiary or affiliate in any capacity, he will not, directly or indirectly,
own, manage, operate, control, consult with or for, be employed by or an agent
for, participate in or be connected in any manner with the ownership,

                                                                               4
<PAGE>

management, operation or control of any business that is competitive with the
business of Employer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Further,
Executive acknowledges that, as the President of Employer, his services are
unique and extraordinary, and that the restrictions herein are reasonable for
Employer's protection of its legitimate business interests.

         If any court having jurisdiction determines that the foregoing
non-compete covenant is invalid due to its duration, coverage or extent, the
covenant shall be modified to reduce its duration, coverage or extent as
necessary to make such covenant valid, and the covenant as modified then shall
be enforced.

         7.2      Non-Solicitation. During his employment and for one (1) year
after the termination of that employment, for any reason, Executive will not,
directly or indirectly, either personally or on behalf of any other entity
(whether as a director, stockholder, owner, partner, consultant, principal,
employee, agent or otherwise) (i) canvas, solicit, transact or attempt to
transact any business from any person or entity who was a customer, client,
vendor, dealer, or insurance company of the Employer or any other person or
entity having a business relationship with the Employer or any prospective
customer, client, vendor, or insurance company of the Employer or any other
person or entity the Employer is in negotiations with to enter into a business
relationship during the term of Executive's employment or whose identity was
revealed to Executive during or as a consequence of his employment; (ii)
solicit, induce, entice, hire, employ or attempt to employ any individual
employed by the Company as of the termination of his employment or during the
prior 12 months; or (iii) take any action which is intended or would reasonably
be expected to, adversely affect the Employer, its business, reputation or its
relationship with its actual or prospective clients, customers, suppliers, or
investors.

         7.3      Confidentiality and Trade Secrets. During and after the terms
of his employment by Employer, Executive shall not communicate, divulge, or use
any secret, confidential information, trade secret or confidential customer list
or any confidential information relating to customers, clients, vendors,
dealers, insurance companies, suppliers of the Employer or any other person or
entity having a relationship with the Employer or any affiliate of Employer for
any purpose whatsoever except as consented to in writing by Employer. This
obligation shall apply with respect to any such item until such item ceases
(other than through the action of Executive) to be secret or confidential.

in the confidential databases of the Employer containing Confidential
Information or other information of the Employer. Executive shall have no
obligation hereunder to keep confidential any Confidential Information to the
extent disclosure of any thereof is required by law or determined in good faith
by counsel to Executive to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any legal
or regulatory order, regulation or requirement; provided, however, that in the
event disclosure is required by law, Executive shall provide Employer with
prompt notice of such requirement so that Employer may seek an appropriate
protective order.

         7.4      Remedies. In the event of any actual breach by either of the
parties of the provisions of this Section VII, then each shall be entitled to
all the remedies available by law or in equity, including without limitation the
right to obtain damages for said breach and non-adherence and the right to
enjoin the other, or any other person or entity in or threatening breach or
non-adherence, from continuing, and to remedy, the activities which constitute
said breach. The parties acknowledge and agree that any remedies at law may be
inadequate in the event of any breach of the provisions of this Section VII,
and, therefore they agree and acknowledge that each shall be entitled to all
equitable remedies that are appropriate in the event of such breach.

against said obligation any amount which Executive is obligated to pay to
Employer or any corporation controlling, controlled by or under common control

the amount not properly offset, pay Executive interest on such amount from the
date of offset to the date of payment at 6% per annum. In the event that it is
necessary for Executive to take any action, whether at law or in equity, to

and other necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which it
may be entitled.

consolidation of Employer with or into any other entity, (ii) the acquisition of
Employer by any entity, or (iii) the sale or other disposition by Employer of
all or substantially all of its businesses and/or assets, this Agreement shall
remain legally valid and binding and shall be enforceable by Executive against
the surviving entity.

         8.5      General. This Agreement may be executed in several
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same instrument. The section headings contained
herein are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the
meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed,
enforced and construed under the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to
its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute arising out of or related to this
Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Court
of the State of Texas.

disagreement between the parties arising out of or in connection with this
agreement, prior to submission of the controversy to arbitration, the parties
shall submit the matter to mediation in a proceeding to be conducted in
Stamford, Connecticut. If the parties exhaust the mediation process without a
successful resolution of the matter, the dispute shall be settled in the State
of Connecticut by arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators, one selected
by Employer and one selected by Executive, with a third being appointed by the
two so chosen. The arbitration shall be commenced by the initiating party
notifying the other party of its demand for arbitration and of the arbitrator
whom it selected and demanding that the other party select its arbitrator. If
the third arbitrator is not selected within 30 days after the demand is served,
he shall be selected in accordance with the rules and regulations then in effect
of this American Arbitration Association or its successor. In any action,
whether at law, in equity, or in arbitration, to enforce or interpret the terms
of, or otherwise arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to reasonable attorney's fees, arbitrator fees, costs and necessary
disbursements in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.

                                                                               6

         8.7      Representation and Indemnity. Executive represents and
warrants to Employer that (i) he has the full right and power to enter into this
Agreement, (ii) he is not bound by any non-compete covenant or agreement that
would prevent him from accepting employment with Employer, subject Employer to
any liability arising out of his employment, or infringe on his ability to fully
perform his duties as President of Employer, and (iii) he is not subject to any
other restriction or impediment thereto that would prevent him from fully
performing his duties as President of Employer. Executive hereby indemnifies
Employer against any claims, losses, damages or expenses that Employer may incur
or suffer in connection with any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any of the
representations and/or warranties set forth in this Section 8.7.


         8.8      Survivability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, Sections 6.4, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.3, 8.6, and 8.7 above shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and shall be deemed fully enforceable thereafter.

                                  Stock Options
                                  -------------


         Warrantech hereby grants Executive options (the "Options") to purchase
up to Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000) worth of shares of Warrantech common
stock ("Stock") under its 1998 Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan, as amended
(the "Plan"), at an exercise price equal to the opening price of the Stock on
the date such Options are approved by the Board of Directors. The issuance of
the Options is subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, in its sole
discretion.


         Vesting of the shares shall be as follows:

         (c)  Fifty per cent (50%) of the options shall vest in equal amounts at
              the conclusion of each of the first, second and third years during
              the term of this Agreement, provided that Employer meets at least
              90% of its net sales revenue and operating income objectives as
              budgeted in each immediately preceding fiscal year. Failure to
              attain such objectives for any one fiscal year shall not prevent
              Options from vesting for those years in which said objectives were
              obtained.

         (d)  The remaining fifty per cent (50%) of such Options will vest in
              equal amounts at the conclusion of each of the first, second and
              third years during the term of this agreement.







In calculating Employer's attainment of the objectives described above, the
parties shall rely upon the financial statements of the Consolidated Companies
as prepared by its independent certified public accountants, which financial
statements shall be prepared in a manner consistent with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                                                                               8
