                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


         THIS AGREEMENT is made as of the 22nd day of June, 1998, by and between

and JOHN E. UDELHOFEN, an individual currently residing in Chicago, Illinois
(hereinafter "Executive").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, on the date hereof, Osage Systems Group, Inc., a Delaware
public company ("Osage") acquired the Company pursuant to the terms of a Stock
Purchase Agreement dated June 22, 1998 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement");

         WHEREAS, Executive was a shareholder of the Company, and, pursuant to
the Stock Purchase Agreement, agreed to sell his shares of the Company to Osage
and Osage, by virtue of the closing that occurred on even date herewith,
purchased the shares of the Executive in the Company;

         WHEREAS in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Executive
agreed to remain employed as an executive officer of the Company upon the terms

Agreement, the parties hereto, do hereby agree as follows:

         1.       Employment and Term.

                  A. The Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby

<PAGE>   2

         2.       Duties.

                  A. During the Term, Executive shall use his best efforts to
perform all duties required in furtherance of his position, including without
limitation all such duties as are customarily associated with such position or
as are assigned to him from time to time by the Board of Directors of the
Company, including, but not limited to, the specific description of Executive's
anticipated duties that appears on Schedule A. Executive shall not be assigned
duties inconsistent with those that appear above and on Schedule A; provided,
however, that if the Board of Directors determines that Executive may best serve
the Company in another professional capacity generally in keeping with
Executive's education, training and abilities, Executive's duties may include
such other duties, but without diminution to Executive's salary or benefits
hereunder.

                  B. Executive shall diligently and faithfully devote his entire
business time, energy, skill, and best efforts to the performance of his duties
under this Agreement. Executive shall conduct himself at all times so as to
advance the best interests of the Company, and shall not undertake or engage in
any other business activity or continue or assume any other business
affiliations which conflict or interfere with the performance of his services
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the
Company. Executive also agrees that he shall not usurp or misappropriate, either
to himself, or to any other person or entity, any corporate or other
opportunities that would otherwise be available to the Company.

         3.       Compensation.

                  A. The Company shall pay Executive and Executive shall accept,
as his compensation for all services rendered to the Company pursuant hereto, an
annual salary of $152,000, to be paid in accordance with the general payroll
practices of the Company as from



                                      -2-

time to time in effect. Executive shall also be entitled, subject to the terms
and conditions of particular plans and programs, to all fringe benefits
generally afforded to other executives of Osage subsidiaries in the discretion
of the Board of Directors, including, but not by way of limitation, the right to
participate in any pension, retirement, major medical, group health, disability,
accident and life insurance, and other employee benefit programs made generally
available, from time to time, by the Company, to its subsidiaries. Said benefits
shall, in general, be no less favorable than those provided to its executive
employees immediately prior to the date hereof. Executive acknowledges that the
compensation provided for herein is intended to include an automobile allowance.
The Company shall not assume any responsibility, however, for insurance,
maintenance or repair costs on any such automobile. If Executive drives his
automobile in connection with any business matters on behalf of the Company, he
shall be required to maintain insurance on his automobile with standard rated
carriers at standard and customary policy coverage.

                  B. During the term, the Company will pay for one individual
country club membership, which may be utilized by any of the Company's executive
officers, but the Company's responsibility shall extend to the payment of only
one such individual membership.

         4.       Vacations, Holidays, Sick Days.

                  A. Executive shall receive three (3) weeks of paid vacation in
each calendar year, to be taken at times which do not unreasonably interfere
with the performance of the Employee's duties hereunder and in no event shall
Executive schedule more than ten (10) consecutive business days of vacation
during any three month period without the prior written consent of the Board of
Directors. Vacation pay shall be non-cumulative and to the extent not taken
shall not be compensated. 

                  B. Executive shall also be entitled to those holidays and
compensated sick leave days as are allowed for by the policy of the Company.

         5.       Termination.

                  A. Executive's employment and rights to compensation hereunder
shall terminate immediately if Executive voluntarily leaves the employment of
the Company, except that the Company shall have the obligation to pay Executive
such portion of his base salary and benefits provided for in Section 3 hereof as
may be accrued but unpaid on the date Executive voluntarily leaves the
employment of the Company. In the event that Executive voluntarily leaves the
employment of the Company, he shall provide at least ninety (90) days' written
notice.

                  B. The Company may, upon written notice to Executive giving
the reasons therefor, terminate Executive's employment and his rights to
compensation hereunder for cause. As used herein, the term "cause" shall mean
the following: (i) when the Company's results of operations produce "sales
revenues" or "pre-tax net income" less than those amounts identified on Schedule
B hereto, which is incorporated herein by this reference; (ii) conviction of
Executive for any felony, fraud, embezzlement or crime of moral turpitude,
except for such conduct relating to corporate activity to the extent that
Executive would be entitled to be indemnified by the



                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5
Company for charges arising from such conduct; (iii) controlled substance abuse
or drug addiction; alcoholism which interferes with or affects Executive's
responsibilities to the Company or which reflects negatively upon the integrity
or reputation of the Company; (iv) gross negligence or serious misconduct which
is materially injurious to the Company after notice and a thirty (30) day
opportunity to cure; (v) continuing willful failure to substantially perform
employment duties after notice and a thirty (30) day opportunity to cure; or
(vi) any violation by the Executive of Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement. If
Executive is terminated for cause as provided above, Executive's employment and
rights to compensation hereunder shall terminate immediately upon receipt of
written notice, except that the Company shall have the obligation to pay
Executive such portion of his base salary and fringe benefits as may be accrued
but unpaid on the date his employment is terminated. 

                  C. If Executive's employment is terminated during the Term
hereof for reasons other than those provided in Subsections 5.A. or 5.B., above,
or if Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below), Executive shall be
entitled to his regular compensation for the balance of the Term, consisting of:


                  (1) payment of one hundred percent (100%) of Executive's
monthly base salary payable at regular intervals in accordance with the
Company's normal payroll practices; and

                  (2) continuation of health insurance and fringe benefits as
set forth herein through the remainder of the Term. 

                  During the period in which payments are made to Executive
pursuant to this Section 5.C., the Agreement shall be deemed to remain effective
for the purposes of Section 6 



                                      -5-
<PAGE>   6
and Executive shall remain subject to the limitations identified in Section 6
hereafter as if the Term of the Agreement continued during such period.

                  D. Executive may resign for "Good Reason" if (a) the Company
breaches any material term or condition of this Agreement (after written notice
to Company and expiry of a 30 day opportunity to cure) or (b) there shall have
been a Change of Control Transaction (within the meaning of Section 5.15 of the
Stock Purchase Agreement).

         6.       Confidentiality and Related Matters.

                  A. Acknowledgment of Nature and Value of Confidential
Information: Executive recognizes and acknowledges: (a) that in the course of
Executive's employment by the Company it will be necessary for Executive to
acquire, in a fiduciary capacity of trust, information which could include, in
whole or in part, but is not limited to: information relative to the Company and
"Osage" (which for the remainder of this Agreement shall be defined to include
subsidiaries and affiliates of Osage) concerning rate schedules; rate
quotations; the names, addresses, credit terms and nature of services provided
by the vendors utilized by the Company and Osage; the names, addresses, credit
terms and nature of services provided to customers of the Company and Osage; the
identity of Osage's and the Company's suppliers, sales representatives, shippers
or other entities with whom Executive has come into contact as a result of his
employment with the Company, or which should otherwise come into his knowledge
during the term of this Agreement; the salaries, skills, education or abilities
of Osage's or the Company's employees; Osage's and the Company's sales, sales
volume, sales methods and sales proposals; the identities of Osage's and the
Company's customers and/or prospective customers; the identities of key
purchasing personnel in the employ of customers and prospective customers; 



                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7
the amounts and/or kinds of customers' purchases from Osage or the Company;
Osage's or the Company's sources of information and supply; Osage's or the
Company's computer programs, system documentation, special hardware or software,
service or product hardware or software, and related software or hardware
development; the Company's or Osage's manuals, formulae, processes, methods,
machines, compositions, ideas, improvements, inventions or other information or
materials relating to Osage's or the Company's affairs (collectively referred to
herein as the "Confidential Information"); (b) that the Confidential Information
is the property of the Company and constitutes a major asset of the Company; (c)
that the use, misappropriation or disclosure of the Confidential Information
would constitute a breach of trust and would cause irreparable injury to the
Company; and (d) that it is essential to the protection of the Company's
goodwill and to the maintenance of the Company's competitive position that the
Confidential Information be kept secret and that Executive neither disclose the
Confidential Information to others nor use the Confidential Information to
Executive's own advantage or to the advantage of others. Notwithstanding the
above, the term "Confidential Information" shall not be deemed to include
information that is otherwise generally publicly available (other than through
disclosure by Executive) or information that Executive is required to disclose
by virtue of law or court order. 

                  B. Acknowledgment of Necessity for Protections of Company's
Business. Executive further recognizes and acknowledges that it is essential for
the proper protection of the business of the Company, particularly in view of
the recent acquisition of the Company by Osage, that Executive be restrained:
(a) from soliciting or inducing any employee of Osage or the Company to leave
the employ of Osage or the Company; (b) from hiring or attempting to hire 


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   8
any employee of Osage or the Company; (c) from soliciting the trade of, or
trading with, the customers or suppliers of Osage or the Company for any
business purpose other than that of the Company; and (d) from competing against
Osage or the Company for a reasonable period of time and within a reasonable
geographic area following the termination or nonrenewal of Executive's
employment with the Company, as more fully addressed in Section 6.F, 6.H and 6.I
below; and Executive acknowledges that a breach of any of the provisions of
Section 6.F., below would cause irreparable injury to the Company.

                  C. Work Made For Hire. Executive further recognizes and
understands that Executive's duties at the Company may include the preparation
of materials, including without limitation written or graphic materials, and
that any such materials conceived or written by Executive shall be done as "work
made for hire" as defined and used in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C.
Sections 1 et seq. In the event of publication of such materials, Executive
understands that since the work is a "work made for hire", the Company will
solely retain and own all rights in said materials, including right of
copyright.

                  D. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. In recognition
and consideration of the recent acquisition of the Company by Osage and
Executive's employment, compensation and fringe benefits, the information which
the Company will give Executive regarding the Company's or Osage's businesses,
the Executive's introduction to the Company's or Osage's customers and
prospective customers made in the course of Executive's employment with the
Company, and the carefully-guarded methods of doing business which the Company
and Osage utilize and deem crucial to the successful operation of their
businesses, Executive agrees to hold and safeguard the Confidential Information
in trust and in a fiduciary capacity for the 



                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9
Company, its successors and assigns. Executive expressly agrees that he shall
not, without the prior written consent of the Company's Board of Directors,
misappropriate or disclose or make available to anyone for use outside the
Company's organization at any time, except as required by the Company in the
performance of Executive's duties to the Company, either during Executive's
employment with the Company or subsequent to the termination or nonrenewal of
such employment with the Company, for any reason, including without limitation
termination by the Company for cause or without cause, any of the Confidential
Information, whether or not developed by Executive. 

                  E. Disclosure of Works and Inventions/Assignment of Patents.
In consideration of the promises set forth herein, Executive agrees to disclose
promptly to the Company, or to such person whom the Company may expressly
designate for this specific purpose (its "Designee"), any and all works,
inventions, discoveries and improvements authored, conceived or made by
Executive during the period of employment and related to the business or
activities of the Company or Osage, and Executive hereby assigns and agrees to
assign all of Executive's interest in the foregoing to the Company or to its
Designee. Executive agrees that, whenever he is requested to do so by the
Company, Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments or other
instruments which the Company shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain
Letters Patent or Copyrights of the United States or any foreign country or to
otherwise protect the Company's interest therein. Such obligations shall
continue beyond the termination or nonrenewal of Executive's employment with
respect to any works, inventions, discoveries and/or improvements that are
authored, conceived of, or made by Executive during 



                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10
the period of Executive's employment, and shall be binding upon Executive's
successors, assigns, executors, heirs, administrators or other legal
representatives. 

                  F. Covenant Not To Compete. Executive covenants and agrees
that, for and in consideration of the compensation received hereunder and the
purchase price received under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the sufficiency and
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, during the period of Executive's
employment hereunder and the period during which payments are made pursuant to
Section 5.C. hereof, and then for a period of twelve (12) months following
termination or nonrenewal or the date of the last payment under Section 5.C,
whichever is later, Executive shall not, within a 75 mile radius of any of the
places of business of the Company or Osage (however, in the case of Osage, such
covenant would only apply with respect to any office of Osage for which
Executive has been involved in any significant manner) engage, directly or
indirectly, whether as principal or as agent, officer, director, employee,
consultant, shareholder, or otherwise, alone or in association with any other
person, corporation or other entity, in any "Competing Business". For purposes
of this Agreement, the term "shareholder" shall exclude any interest owned by
Executive in a public company to the extent the Executive owns less than five
percent (5%) of any such company's outstanding common stock or has an investment
in such company of less than $150,000. For the further purposes of this
Agreement, the term "Competing Business" shall mean any person, corporation or
other entity that is engaged in a business that directly competes with, or is
engaged in, one or more of the same lines of business as the Company or Osage
(however, in the case of Osage, the term "Competing Business" shall only apply
as to lines of business engaged in by offices for which Executive has between
involved in any significant manner) at the time of such termination or
nonrenewal.

<PAGE>   11
                  G. Executive's Abilities. Executive represents that
Executive's experience and capabilities, and the limited provisions of the
immediately-preceding Section 6.F, are such that he will not be prevented from
earning his livelihood in businesses similar to the Company, other than the
"Competing Business," as specifically defined in the immediately preceding
Section 6.F. Executive acknowledges that there are a significant number of
businesses for which his qualifications and experience would render him
qualified for employment that are either outside of the 75 mile radius referred
to in Section 6.F. or that are within the 75 mile radius referred to in Section
6.F. that do not constitute a "Competing Business" such that his ability to
become employed after the termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement would not
be impaired. 

                  H. Non-Solicitation of Customers and Suppliers. Executive
agrees that during the course of his employment with the Company and the period
during which payments are made pursuant to Section 5.C. hereof, and then for a
period of months following termination or nonrenewal or the date of the last
payment under Section 5.C, whichever is later, he shall not, directly or
indirectly, solicit, service, trade with or sell to any customer or supplier
with whom the Company or Osage has transacted any business within the past
eighteen (18) months, or any active prospective customer or supplier of the
Company or Osage for any business purpose that competes with the business being
undertaken by Osage or the Company.

                  I. Non-Solicitation of Employees. Executive agrees that,
during his employment with the Company and the period during which any payments
are made pursuant to Section 5.C hereof, and then for a period of eighteen (18)
months following the termination or nonrenewal or the last date of the last
payment under Section 5.C, whichever is later, Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any employee of




                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12
the Company or Osage to leave the Company or Osage for any reason whatsoever, or
assist or participate in the hiring of any employee of the Company or Osage to
work for another entity. 

                  J. No Prior Agreements. Executive represents and warrants that
Executive is not a party to or otherwise subject to or bound by the terms of any
contract, agreement or understanding which in any manner would limit or
otherwise affect Executive's ability to perform his obligations hereunder,
including without limitation any contract, agreement or understanding containing
terms and provisions similar in any manner to those contained in this Section 6.
Executive further represents and warrants that his employment with the Company
will not under any circumstances require him to disclose or use any confidential
information belonging to prior employers or other persons or entities, or to
engage in any conduct which may potentially interfere with the contractual,
statutory or common-law rights of such other employers, persons or entities. In
the event that Executive knows or learns of any facts whatsoever which suggest
that such interference might arguably occur as the result of any proposed
actions by either Executive or the Company, Executive expressly promises that he
will immediately bring such facts to the Company's attention.

                  K. Remedies. In the event of a breach by Executive of any of
the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, if it shall so
elect, to institute legal proceedings to obtain damages for any such breach, or
to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by Executive and to enjoin
Executive from any further violation of this Agreement, and to exercise such
remedies cumulatively or in conjunction with all other rights and remedies
provided by law. Executive acknowledges and agrees that money damages for any
breach by him of any of the provisions of this Agreement may be inadequate to
compensate the Company for the injuries it 



                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13
may suffer as the result of any such breach, and accordingly that the Company
shall be entitled to injunctive relief against Executive, in addition to money
damages, in the event of any such breach by Executive. 

                  L. Review by Counsel. Executive expressly acknowledges and
represents that Executive has been given a full and fair opportunity to review
this Agreement with an attorney of Executive's choice, and that Executive has
satisfied himself, with or without consulting with counsel, that the terms and
provisions of this Agreement, specifically including, but not limited to, the
restrictive covenant and related provisions of Section 6 hereof, are reasonable
and enforceable. 

                  M. Return of Materials. Upon the termination or nonrenewal of
Executive's employment with the Company for any reason, including without
limitation termination by the Company for cause or without cause, or at any time
upon demand, Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company all Company
property and materials, including without limitation all documents or other
materials constituting, containing, referencing or relating to the "Confidential
Information" referred to in this Section 6, and any other Company property of
any nature whatsoever, including without limitation correspondence, computer
disks or other electronically-stored information, drawings, blueprints, manuals,
letters, notes, notebooks, reports, flow-charts, programs, proposals and any
documents concerning the Company's customers, or concerning services, products
or processes provided by or to, or used by, the Company. 

                  N. Company-Created Materials. All material that may be
furnished to the Executive, together with literature, rate schedules, customer
lists, forms, filing systems and any other property, documents or other
materials furnished or made available by the Company to the 



                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14
Executive, shall be and remain the property of the Company, and shall be
returned by the Executive to the Company upon any termination or nonrenewal of
employment or at any time upon demand. 

                  O. Executive-Created Materials. All material created by the
Executive during the term of his employment with the Company which is incidental
to or related in any way to the Executive's employment, or to the Company's
business, shall be the property of the Company, and shall be delivered to the
Company upon any termination or nonrenewal of Executive's employment or at any
time upon demand.

                  P. Definitions. For purposes of this Section 6, the term,
"material(s)" shall include, but shall not be limited to, data stored in
computers, voicemail or any other electronic, magnetic, or mechanical storage
device, any passwords, codes or keys required to access all or any portion of
such material, and the "Confidential Information" referred to in Section 6.A.
hereof. 

         7.       Conflict of Interest.

                  Executive covenants that, during the Term, he will disclose to
the Company, in writing, any and all interests he may have, whether for profit
or compensation or not, in any venture or activity which could potentially
interfere with his ability to perform under this Agreement or create a conflict
of interest for him with the Company. For purposes of this paragraph 7 only,
"conflict of interest" shall mean ownership of greater than five percent (5%)
of, or an ownership interest with a value in excess of $150,000 in another
company which conducts business similar to that undertaken by the Company.
