of interest in contravention of the agreements contained in paragraph 7 or a

Agreement through the effective date of termination, but will not be entitled to
any other salary, benefits, or other compensation after such date.

        (e) Termination Upon Death or Disability of Employee This Agreement will
be terminated immediately upon the death or permanent disability (which shall be
determined in good faith by Company's Board of Directors as such time as
Employee becomes physically or mentally incapable of properly performing his
duties under this Agreement and such incapacity will exist or can reasonably be
expected to exist for a period of one hundred and twenty days or more) of
Employee. Upon such determination the employee or his beneficiary will be paid
(I) such salary, vacation, and other benefits as have accrued under this
Agreement through the effective date of termination and (ii) for a period of
twenty four (24) months after the date of termination, Company shall pay
Employee or his beneficiary the equivalent of Employee's monthly base annual

writing to Company (or his estate, if no such beneficiary has been designated)
will be entitled to such benefits (I) as are consistent with Company policy then
if in effect or (ii) as are determined by Company's Board of Directors in its
sole discretion.

        3.3 Extension of Term. The term of this Agreement may be extended beyond
the Initial Term, by the mutual agreement of Employee and Company and on such
basis as employee and Company shall agree. Each such extension, unless expressly
agreed otherwise by Employee and Company, will be for one (1) year commencing on
June 1 of the year following the expiration of the Initial Term or any renewal
term. Mutual agreement to extend the term of this Agreement shall be evidenced
by either (a) a written agreement executed by Company and Employee or (b) the
continuation of Employee's performance of services under this Agreement with the
approval of Company and without notice of termination given by Company or
Employee. Any extended term of this Agreement may be terminated as set forth in

Capital Stock and Voting Securities, as the case may be, shall not constitute a
Change of Control; or

               ii. Individuals who, as of the Effective Date, constitute the
Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board, provided that any individual becoming a director
subsequent to the Effective Date whose election or nomination for election by
the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the
directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such
individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this

securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then owned
beneficially, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively of the

or disposition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the
Outstanding Capital Stock and Voting Securities, as the case may be, immediately
prior to such sale or disposition.

subparagraph.

        5.2 Covenant of Confidentiality. The Employee recognizes and
acknowledges that he will be provided access to confidential information and
trade secrets of the Company, and other entities doing business with the Company

solely or jointly with others, inventions, discoveries, improvements, know-how,
computer programs, or other technical, manufacturing, marketing, customer,
and/or financial data and information, including without limitation, access to
information regarding the upgrading of current Company products and the
development of new products (hereinafter "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION"). Such
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION constitutes valuable, special, and unique property of
the Company, and/or other entities doing business with the Company. In
consideration of such access to Confidential Information, Employee will not,
during or after the term of his employment by the Company, make any use of, or
disclose any of such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION to any person or firm,
corporation, association, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever,
except as is generally available to the public or as specifically allowed in
writing by an authorized representative of the Company.

        5.3 No Use of Confidential Information of Others. The Employee agrees
not to make use of or disclose any confidential information, including trade
secrets, of prior employers in carrying out Employee's duties for Company.

tangible Confidential Information in the possession of, or under the control of,
Employee, including, but without limitation, the originals and all copies of all
software, drawings, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports and all other
media, material and records of any kind, and all copies thereof pertaining to
Confidential Information acquired or developed by the Employee during the term
of Employee's employment. Employee further agrees that upon termination of
Employee's employment, for any reason, and at the request of the Company,
Employee shall make himself available and shall meet with representatives of the
Company. At such meeting, Employee shall fully disclose and deliver any of the
above described materials in Employee's possession and, at the Company's
request, shall execute any and all documents reasonably necessary to ensure and
verify compliance with this paragraph 5.

        5.5 Right to Injunctive Relief. Employee acknowledges that a violation
or attempted violation on his part of any agreement in this paragraph 5 will
cause irreparable damage to Company and its Affiliates, and accordingly Employee
agrees that Company shall be entitled as a manner of right to an injunction, out
of any court of competent jurisdiction, restraining any violation or further
violation of such agreements by Employee; such right to an injunction, however,
shall be cumulative and in addition to whatever other remedies Company may have.
Furthermore, Employee shall be entitled to seek a declaratory judgment regarding
any conduct or enterprise to determine whether or not such conduct or violation
is violative of the terms of this Agreement; provided however, that no suit
shall be filed until Employee has given Company at least 15 days to respond to
Employee's written request for permission to undertake certain requested acts.
The terms and agreements set forth in this paragraph 5 shall survive the
expiration of the term or termination of this Agreement for any reason. The
existence of any claim of Employee, whether predicated on this Agreement or
otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Company of the
agreements contained in this paragraph 5.

     6. Conflict of Interest. In keeping with Employee's fiduciary duties to
Company, Employee agrees that while employed by Company he will not, acting
alone or in conjunction with others, directly or indirectly, become involved in
a conflict of interest or, upon discovery thereof, allow a conflict of interest
to continue. Moreover, Employee agrees that he will immediately disclose to the
Board of Directors of Company any facts which might involve any reasonable
possibility of a conflict of interest. It is agreed that any direct or indirect
interest in, connection with, or benefit from any outside activities, where such
interest might in any way adversely affect Company, involves a possible conflict
of interest. Circumstances in which a conflict of interest on the part of
Employee might arise, and which must be reported immediately by Employee to the
Board of Directors of Company, include, but are not limited to, the following:
(a) ownership of a material interest in any supplier, contractor, subcontractor,
customer, or other entity with which Company does business; (b) acting in any
capacity, including director, officer, partner, consultant, employee,
distributor, agent, or the like, for a supplier, contractor, subcontractor,
customer, or other entity with which Company does business; (c) accepting,
directly or indirectly, payment, service, or loans from a supplier, contractor,
subcontractor, customer, or other entity with which Company does business,
including, but not limited to, gifts, trips, entertainment, or other favors of
more than a nominal value; (d) misuse of Company's information or facilities to
which Employee has access in a manner which will be detrimental to Company's
interest, such as utilization for Employee's own benefit of know-how,
inventions, or information developed through Company's business activities; (e)
disclosure or other misuse of Confidential Information of any kind obtained
through Employee's connection with Company; (f) the ownership, directly or


                                       7
<PAGE>

indirectly, of a material interest in an enterprise in competition with Company,
or acting as an owner, director, principal, officer, partner, consultant,
employee, agent, servant, or otherwise of any enterprise which is in competition
with Company; and (g) appropriation of a Corporate Opportunity, as defined in
paragraph 8 of this Agreement.

     7. Corporate Opportunities. Employee acknowledges that during the course of
his employment by Company he may be offered or become aware of business or
investment opportunities in which Company may or might have an interest (a
"Corporate Opportunity") and that he has a duty to advise Company of any such
Corporate Opportunities before acting upon them. Accordingly, Employee agrees
(a) that he will disclose to Company's Board of Directors any Corporate
Opportunity offered to Employee or of which Employee becomes aware, and (b) that
he will not act upon any Corporate Opportunity for his own benefit or for the
benefit of any person or entity other than Company without first obtaining the
consent or approval of Company's Board of Directors (whose consent or approval
may be granted or denied solely at the discretion of Company's Board of
Directors).

     8. Company's Right of Offset. Should Employee at any time be indebted to
Company, or otherwise obligated to pay money to Company for any reason, Company,
at its election, may offset amounts otherwise payable to Employee under this
Agreement, including, but without limitation, salary and bonus payments, against
any such indebtedness or amounts due from Employee to Company.
