EXHIBIT 10.35

                               EXECUTIVE AGREEMENT

         THIS EXECUTIVE AGREEMENT is made as of July 31, 1997, between
AnswerThink Consulting Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), and
John Brennan ("Executive").

         The Company and Executive desire to enter into an agreement pursuant to
which Executive will purchase, and the Company will sell, 280,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"). All of
such shares of Common Stock and all shares of Common Stock hereafter acquired by
Executive are referred to herein as "Executive Stock." Certain definitions are
set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement.

         The parties hereto agree as follows:

                     PROVISIONS RELATING TO EXECUTIVE STOCK

         1. Purchase and Sale of Executive Stock.

                  (a) Upon execution of this Agreement, Executive will purchase,
and the Company will sell, 280,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.0025
per share. The Company will deliver to Executive the certificates representing
such Executive Stock, and Executive will deliver to the Company a cashier's or
certified check or wire transfer of funds in the aggregate amount of $700.

                  (b) Within 30 days after Executive purchases Common Stock
pursuant to Section 1 (a) from the Company, Executive will make an effective
election with the Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder in the form of Annex A
attached hereto.

                  (c) In connection with the purchase and sale of the Executive
Stock hereunder, Executive represents and warrants to the Company that:

                           (i) The Executive Stock to be acquired by Executive
         pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for Executive's own account
         and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in
         violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities
         laws, and the Executive Stock will not be disposed of in contravention
         of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.

                           (ii) Executive is an "accredited investor" and a
         sophisticated investor for purposes of applicable foreign and U.S.
         federal and state securities laws and regulations and is able to
         evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Executive
         Stock.

                           (iii) Executive is able to bear the economic risk of
         his investment in the Executive Stock for an indefinite period of time
         because the Executive Stock has not been registered under the
         Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently
         registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such
         registration is available.

                           (iv) Executive has had an opportunity to ask
         questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of
         the offering of Executive Stock and has had full access to such other
         information concerning the Company as he has requested.

                           (v) This Agreement and each of the other agreements
         contemplated hereby constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation
         of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms and Executive's
         employment by the Company, and the execution, delivery and performance


<PAGE>

         of this Agreement and such other agreements by Executive does not and,
         to the knowledge of Executive, will not conflict with, violate or cause
         a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which Executive is
         a party (including, but not limited to, any agreement referred to in
         clause (vi) below) or any judgment, order or decree to which Executive
         is subject and Executive further represents and warrants that Executive
         believes that Executive is not now in breach of any such agreement,
         contract or instrument to which Executive is a party.

                           (vi) Executive is not a party to or bound by any
         other employment agreement, noncompete agreement or confidentiality
         agreement.

                           (vii) Executive is a resident of the State of
         Florida.

                  (d) As an inducement to the Company to issue the Executive
Stock to Executive, and as a condition thereto, Executive acknowledges and
agrees that (i) neither the issuance of the Executive Stock to Executive nor any
provision contained herein shall entitle Executive to remain in the employment
of the Company and its Subsidiaries or affect the right of the Company to
terminate Executive's employment as contemplated by this Agreement at any time
for any reason and (ii) he will take (or omit to take) all such actions as are
necessary so that the representation and warranty made by Executive and
contained in Section 1(d)(v) remains true and correct at all times as if such
representation and warranty were remade by Executive on each date following the
date of this Agreement.

         2. Vesting of Certain Executive Stock.

                  (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(b) below,
240,000 shares of Common Stock purchased under Section 1(a) (the "Time Vesting
Common Stock") will become vested in accordance with the following schedule, if
as of each such date Executive is still employed by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries:

                                               CUMULATIVE PERCENTAGE OF
                                                  TIME VESTING COMMON
                   DATE                            STOCK TO BE VESTED
---------------------------------------------  -------------------------
2nd Anniversary of the date of this Agreement              50%
3rd Anniversary of the date of this Agreement              75%
4th Anniversary of the date of this Agreement             100%

                  (b) If (but only if) Executive's employment is terminated by
the Company without Cause, the aggregate number of shares of Time Vesting Common
Stock that shall be deemed vested shall equal (i) the number of shares which
have vested pursuant to Section 2(a) as of the date of such termination, which
shall in no event be less than 140,000, plus (ii) 50% of the excess of (x)
280,000 over (y) the number of shares included in clause (i) above. Immediately
prior to the occurrence of a Sale of the Company, if as of such time Executive
is still employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, all shares of Time
Vesting Common Stock which have not yet become vested shall become vested at the
time of such event.

                  (c) Shares of Non Restricted Executive Stock which have become
vested pursuant subsections (a) or (b) above are referred to herein as "Vested
Shares," and all other shares of Non Restricted Executive Stock are referred to
herein as "Unvested Shares." In addition, Restricted Shares which have become
vested pursuant to the Restricted Securities Agreement are referred to herein as
"Vested Restricted Shares."

                                       2
<PAGE>

         3. Repurchase Option.

                  (a) In the event that Executive ceases to be employed by any
of the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason (the "Termination"), the Non
Restricted Executive Stock (whether held by Executive or one or more of
Executive's transferees) and the Vested Restricted Shares will be subject to
repurchase by the Company, the Investors and the Other Executives pursuant to
the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3 (the "Repurchase Option").
Any shares subject to repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option under this
Agreement are referred to herein as "Subject Shares."

                  (b) In the event of Termination: (i) The purchase price for
each Unvested Share of Common Stock will be Executive's Original Cost for such
share, (ii) the purchase price for each Vested Share of Common Stock and for
each Vested Restricted Share will be the Fair Market Value for such share and
(iii) the purchase price for each share of Common Stock will be the Liquidation
Value of such share (as defined in the Company's Articles of Incorporation).

                  (c) The Board may elect to purchase all or any portion of any
class of the Subject Shares (including all or any portion of the Unvested Shares
and Vested Shares of such class) by delivering written notice (the "Repurchase
Notice") to the holder or holders of the Executive Stock within 90 days after
the Termination. The Repurchase Notice will set forth the number of Subject
Shares (including Unvested Shares and Vested Shares) of each class to be
acquired from each holder, the aggregate consideration to be paid for such
shares and the proposed time and place for the closing of the transaction. The
number of shares to be repurchased by the Company shall first be satisfied to
the extent possible from the shares held by Executive at the time of delivery of
the Repurchase Notice. If the number of shares of any class then held by
Executive is less than the total number of shares of such class which the
Company elects and is entitled to purchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option,
the Company shall purchase the remaining shares of such class elected to be
purchased from the other holder(s), pro rata according to the number of shares
of such class held by such other holder(s) at the time of delivery of such
Repurchase Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest share).
The number of Unvested Shares and Vested Shares of each class to be repurchased
hereunder will be allocated among Executive and the other holders of
Non-Restricted Executive Stock (if any) pro rata according to the number of
shares of Non Restricted Executive Stock to be purchased from such person.

                  (d) If for any reason the Company does not elect to purchase
all of the Subject Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option, each of the
Investors and the Other Executives shall be entitled to exercise the Repurchase
Option for the Subject Shares the Company has not elected to purchase (the
"Available Shares"). As soon as practicable after the Company has determined
that there will be Available Shares, but in any event within 120 days after the
Termination, the Company shall give written notice (the "Option Notice") to the
Investors and the Other Executives setting forth the number of Available Shares
and the purchase price for the Available Shares. Each Investor and each Other
Executive may elect to purchase any or all of the Available Shares by giving
written notice to the Company within one month after the Option Notice has been
given by the Company. As soon as practicable, and in any event within ten days
after the expiration of the one month period set forth above, the Company shall
notify each holder of Subject Shares as to the number of shares being purchased
from such holder by the Investors and the Other Executives (the "Supplemental
Repurchase Notice"). At the time the Company delivers the Supplemental
Repurchase Notice to such holder(s), the Company shall also deliver written
notice to the Investors and the Other Executives setting forth the number of
shares each such Person is entitled to purchase, the aggregate purchase price
and the time and place of the closing of the transaction. If the Investors and
Other Executives elect to purchase an aggregate number of any class or type
(i.e., vested or unvested) of Subject Shares greater than the number of such
class or type of Subject Shares which such Persons are entitled to purchase
pursuant to the Repurchase Option, such class or type shall be allocated among
the Investors and Other Executives pro rata based upon the number of shares of
Underlying Common Stock owned by each such Person (but in no event shall the pro
rata share of any such Person result in such Person acquiring a number of
Subject Shares of any class or type in excess of the number of such class or
type requested to be purchased by such Person). If the number of

                                       3
<PAGE>

shares of any class then held by Executive is less than the total number of
shares of such class which the Investors and the Other Executives have elected
and are entitled to purchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option, such Persons
shall purchase the remaining shares elected to be purchased from the other
holder(s) of Non Restricted Executive Stock under this Agreement, pro rata
according to the number of shares of Non Restricted Executive Stock of such
class held by such other holder(s) at the time of delivery of such Repurchase
Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest share).

                  (e) The closing of the purchase of Subject Shares pursuant to
the Repurchase Option shall take place on the date designated by the Company in
the Repurchase Notice or Supplemental Repurchase Notice, which date shall not be
more than one month nor less than five days after the delivery of the last such
notice. The Company will pay for the Subject Shares to be purchased by it
pursuant to the Repurchase Option by first offsetting amounts outstanding under
any bona fide debts owed by Executive to the Company; upon full repayment of
such bona fide debts, the Company will make payment by, subject to Subsection
(f) below, a check or wire transfer of funds. Each Investor and Other Executive
will pay for Subject Shares to be purchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option by
check or wire transfer of funds. Each purchaser of Subject Shares pursuant to
the Repurchase Option will be entitled to receive customary representations and
warranties from the sellers regarding such sale and to require all sellers'
signatures be guaranteed.

                  (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, all repurchases of Subject Shares by the Company shall be subject to
applicable restrictions contained in the Florida Business Corporation Act and in
the Company's and its Subsidiaries' debt and equity financing agreements. If any
such restrictions prohibit the repurchase of Subject Shares hereunder which the
Company is otherwise entitled or required to make, the Company may make such
repurchases as soon as it is permitted to do so under such restrictions.

         4. Restrictions on Transfer of Executive Stock.

                  (a) RETENTION OF NONRESTRICTED EXECUTIVE STOCK. Until the
fourth anniversary of the date of this Agreement, Executive shall not sell,
transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any interest in any shares of
Executive Stock, except for Exempt Transfers (as defined in Section 4(b) below).

                  (b) TRANSFER OF EXECUTIVE STOCK. Subject to Section 4(a)
above, Executive shall not Transfer any interest in any shares of Executive
Stock, except pursuant to: (i) the provisions of Section 3 hereof, a Public
Sale, a Sale of the Company or the provisions of the Restricted Securities
Agreement ("Exempt Transfers") or (ii) the provisions of this Section 4;
provided that in no event shall any Transfer of Executive Stock pursuant to this
clause (ii) be made for any consideration other than cash payable upon
consummation of such Transfer; and provided further that Unvested Shares may
only be Transferred pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 hereof; and provided
further that Restricted Shares that remain unvested under the Restricted
Securities Agreement may only be Transferred pursuant to the Restricted
Securities Agreement. Executive will not consummate any Transfer permitted by
clause (ii) of the preceding sentence until 60 days after the Sale Notice has
been given to the Company, the Investors and the Other Executives, unless the
parties to the Transfer have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 4
prior to the expiration of such 60 day period. (The date of the first to occur
of such events is referred to herein as the "Authorization Date").

                  (c) FIRST REFUSAL RIGHTS. The Company may elect to purchase
all (but not less than all) of the shares of Executive Stock to be transferred
upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by
delivering a written notice of such election to Executive, the Investors and
Other Executives within 20 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the
Company. If the Company has not elected to purchase all of the Executive Stock
to be transferred, each Investor and each Other Executive may elect to purchase
all or any portion of the Executive Stock to be transferred upon the same terms
and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by giving written notice of
such election to Executive within 40 days after the Sale Notice has been given
to the Investors and each Other Executive. If the Investors

                                       4
<PAGE>

and the Other Executives elect to purchase an aggregate number of any class of
Executive Stock greater than the number of such class of Executive Stock
specified in the Sale Notice, such number of shares of Executive Stock shall be
allocated among the Investors pro rata based upon the number of shares of
Underlying Common Stock owned by each such Investor and Other Executive (but in
no event shall the pro rata share of any Investor or Other Executive result in
such Investor or Other Executive acquiring a number of any class of Executive
Stock in excess of the number of such class of Executive Stock requested by such
Investor or Other Executive). If neither the Company nor, in the aggregate, the
Investors and the Other Executives elect to purchase all of the shares of
Executive Stock specified in the Sale Notice, Executive may transfer the shares
of Executive Stock specified in the Sale Notice, subject to the provisions of
Section 4(d) below, at a price and on terms no more favorable to the
transferee(s) thereof than specified in the Sale Notice during the 60 day period
immediately following the Authorization Date. Any shares of Executive Stock not
transferred within such 60 day period will be subject to the provisions of this
Section 4(c) upon subsequent transfer. The Company may pay the purchase price
for such shares by offsetting amounts outstanding under any bona fide debts owed
by Executive to the Company with the balance, if any, subject to Section 3(f)
(except "Subject Shares" shall be deemed to refer to "Executive Shares") by
check or wire transfer of funds.

                  (d) PARTICIPATION RIGHTS. If neither the Company nor, in the
aggregate, the Investors and Other Executives have elected to purchase all of
the Executive Stock specified in the Sale Notice pursuant to Section 4(c) above,
each Investor and Other Executive may elect to participate in the contemplated
Transfer by delivering written notice to Executive and the Company within 50
days after receipt by such Investor or Other Executive of the Sale Notice. If
any Investor or Other Executive has elected to participate in such sale,
Executive and such Investor or Other Executive will be entitled to sell in the
contemplated sale, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares
of the Company's Common Stock equal to the product of: (i) the quotient
determined by dividing the percentage of the Company's Underlying Common Stock
held by such Person, by the aggregate percentage of the Company's Underlying
Common Stock owned by Executive (including both Vested and Unvested Shares) and
the Investors and the Other Executives participating in such sale and (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the contemplated sale. Any
purchaser in a sale subject to this Section 4(d) will be required to purchase
from each Investor and Other Executive electing to participate, at such Person's
election, a portion of the Convertible Preferred held by such Person equal to
the greater of the percentage of (x) such Person's Convertible Preferred being
sold in such transaction and (y) Executive's Common Stock being sold in such
transaction.

         For example, IF:

                           (i) the Sale Notice contemplated a sale of 100 shares
         of Common Stock;

                           (ii) Executive was at such time the owner of 200
         shares of Underlying Common Stock (which was equal to 20% of the total
         Underlying Common Stock); and

                           (iii) one Investor elected to participate and that
         Investor owned 600 shares of Underlying Common Stock (which was equal
         to 60% of the total Underlying Common Stock) and 250 shares of
         Convertible Preferred;

                           THEN

                           (A) Executive would be entitled to sell 25 shares of
         Common Stock (20% 80% x 100 shares); and

                           (B) that Investor would be entitled to sell 75 shares
         of Common Stock (60% /divided by/ 80% x 100 shares) and 31.25 shares of
         Convertible Preferred (the same percentage of that

                                       5
<PAGE>

         Investor's Convertible Preferred as the percentage of that Investor's
         Common Stock being sold, i.e., 12.5%).

Executive will use his best efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective
transferee(s) to the participation of each Investor and Other Executive desiring
to participate in the contemplated Transfer and will not transfer any Executive
Stock to the prospective transferee(s) if such trans feree(s) refuses to allow
the participation of such Investor and Other Executive.

                  (e) CERTAIN PERMITTED TRANSFERS. The restrictions contained in
this Section 4 will not apply with respect to: (i) transfers of shares of
Executive Stock pursuant to applicable laws of descent and distribution or (ii)
transfer of shares of Executive Stock among Executive's Family Group; provided
that such restrictions will continue to be applicable to the Executive Stock
after any such transfer and the transferees of such Executive Stock have agreed
in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. In addition,
following the completion of an underwritten Public Offering, Executive, in his
sole discretion, may pledge any of his Executive Stock (other than Unvested
Shares or Restricted Shares that have not vested under the Restricted Securities
Agreement) as collateral for a loan so long as the pledgee of such stock and the
Executive enter in a pledge agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Board, pursuant to which pledgee, among other things, agrees
that pledgee may only sell such Executive Stock in a Public Sale.

                  (f) NO TRANSFERS OF RESTRICTED SHARES. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary (including, without limitation, the
other provisions of this Section 4), Executive may not transfer, assign, pledge
or otherwise dispose of any interest in any Unvested Shares (except pursuant to
Section 3 hereof) or any Restricted Shares that remain unvested under the
Restricted Securities Agreement (except pursuant to the Restricted Securities
Agreement).

                  (g) TERMINATION OF RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions on the
Transfer of shares of Executive Stock set forth in this Section 4 will continue
with respect to each such share of Executive Stock until the date on which such
Executive Stock has been transferred in a transaction permitted by this Section
4 (except in a transaction contemplated by Section 4(e)); provided that in any
event such restrictions will terminate on a Sale of the Company.

         5. ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF EXECUTIVE STOCK.

                  (a) LEGEND. The certificates representing the Executive Stock
will bear a legend in substantially the following form:

         "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY ISSUED
         AS OF JULY 31, 1997, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
         OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN
         THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN
         EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY
         THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS ON
         TRANSFER, CERTAIN REPURCHASE OPTIONS AND CERTAIN OTHER AGREEMENTS SET
         FORTH IN AN EXECUTIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND AN EXECUTIVE OF
         THE COMPANY DATED AS OF JULY 31, 1997. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE
         OBTAINED BY THE HOLDER HEREOF AT THE COMPANY'S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF
         BUSINESS WITHOUT CHARGE."

                  (b) OPINION OF COUNSEL. No holder of Executive Stock may sell,
transfer or dispose of any Executive Stock (except pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act) without first delivering to the
Company an opinion of counsel (reasonably acceptable in form and

                                       6
<PAGE>

substance to the Company) that neither registration nor qualification under the
Securities Act and applicable state securities laws is required in connection
with such transfer.

                       PROVISIONS RELATING TO EMPLOYMENT

         6. EMPLOYMENT. The Company agrees to employ Executive and Executive
accepts such employment for the period beginning as of the date hereof and
ending upon the earlier of three years from the date hereof (or such later date
as agreed by Executive and the Company) and termination pursuant to Section 7(b)
hereof (the "Employment Period").

                  (a) SALARY, BONUS AND BENEFITS. During the Employment Period,
the Company will pay Executive a base salary (the "Annual Base Salary") as the
Board may designate from time to time, at the rate of not less than $200,000 per
annum. Executive will also be eligible to earn a bonus pursuant to a bonus plan
adopted by the Board for each fiscal year. Executive's Annual Base Salary for
any partial year will be prorated based upon the number of days elapsed in such
year. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to
such other benefits approved by the Board and made available to the Company's
senior management.

                  (b) TERMINATION. The Employment Period will continue until
Executive's resignation, disability (as determined by the Board in its good
faith judgment) or death or until the Board determines in its good faith
judgment that termination of Executive's employment is in the best interests of
the Company. If Executive's employment is terminated by the Company without
Cause, during the one year period commencing on the date of termination (the
"Initial Period"), the Company shall pay Executive an aggregate amount equal to
Executive's Annual Base Salary, payable in equal installments on the Company's
regular salary payment dates (the "Severance Payments"). In addition, the
Company shall have the option, by delivering written notice to Executive within
90 days after the date of termination, to extend the severance period up to the
second anniversary of the date of termination (the "Extended Period"). During
the Extended Period, the Company will continue to make Severance Payments at
same annual rate to Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing and without in any
way modifying the provisions of Section 9 hereof, from and after the first date
that Executive becomes employed with another Person, the Company, at its option,
may eliminate or otherwise reduce the amount of Severance Payments otherwise
required to be made pursuant to this Section 7(b).

         7. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

                  (a) Executive acknowledges that the information, observations
and data obtained by him concerning the business and affairs of the Company and
its affiliates and its and their predecessors during the course of his
performance of services for, or employment with, any of the foregoing persons
(whether or not compensated for such services) are the property of the Company
and its affiliates, including information concerning acquisition opportunities
in or reasonably related to the Company's business or industry of which
Executive becomes aware during such period, and any Initial Period or Extended
Period. Therefore, Executive agrees that he will not at any time (whether during
or after the Employment Period) disclose to any unauthorized person or, directly
or indirectly, use for his own account, any of such information, observations or
data without the Board's consent, unless and to the extent that the
aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the
public other than as a direct or indirect result of Executive's acts or
omissions to act or the acts or omissions to act of other senior or junior
management employees of the Company; or any of its Subsidiaries. Executive
agrees to deliver to the Company at the termination of his employment, or at any
other time the Company may request in writing (whether during or after the
Employment Period), all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other
documents, regardless of the format or media (and copies thereof), relating to
the business of the Company and its affiliates and its and their predecessors
(including, without limitation, all acquisition prospects, lists and contact
information) which he may then possess or have under his control.

                  (b) INVENTIONS AND PATENTS. Executive acknowledges that all
inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses,
drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not
patentable) that relate to the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' actual or
anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or
services and that are conceived, developed, made or reduced to practice by
Executive while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries or any of its and
their predecessors ("Work Product") belong to the Company or such Subsidiary and
Executive hereby assigns, and agrees to assign, all of the above to the Company
or such Subsidiary. Any copyrightable work prepared in whole or in part by
Executive in the course of his work for any of the foregoing entities shall be
deemed a "work made for hire" under the copyright laws, and the Company or such
Subsidiary shall own all rights therein. To the extent that any such
copyrightable work is not a "work made for hire," Executive hereby assigns and
agrees to assign to Company or such Subsidiary all right, title and interest,
including without limitation, copyright in and to such copyrightable work.
Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product and copyrightable work to
the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether
during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm the Company's or
its Subsidiary's ownership (including, without limitation, assignments,
consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

         8. NONCOMPETITION AND NONSOLICITATION

                  (a) NONCOMPETITION. Executive acknowledges that in the course
of his employment with predecessors of the Company and its affiliates, he has
become familiar with, and during the course of his employment with the Company
and its Subsidiaries he will become familiar with, the Company's and its
affiliates' trade secrets and with other confidential information concerning the
Company and its affiliates and that Executive's services will be of special,
unique and extraordinary value to the Company and its Subsidiaries and that the
Company's ability to accomplish its purposes and to successfully pursue its
business plan and compete in the marketplace depend substantially on the skills
and expertise of Executive. Therefore, and in further consideration of the
compensation being paid to Executive hereunder, and the Vesting Common Stock
being issued to Executive hereunder, Executive agrees that, during the
Employment Period and any Initial Period or Extended Period, so long as
Severance Payments are being made unless Severance Payments are not required to
be made pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7(b) (the "Noncompete Period"),
he shall not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate in,
consult with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any business
competing with the businesses of the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any business
in which the Company or its Subsidiaries has commenced negotiations or has
requested and received information relating to the acquisition of such business
within eighteen months prior to the termination of the Executive's employment
with the Company, in any country where the Company, its Subsidiaries, or other
aforementioned business conducts business.

                  (b) NONSOLICITATION. During the two years following
Termination, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another entity:
(i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary to
leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way willfully
interfere with the relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary and any
employee thereof (ii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier,
licensee or other business relation of the Company or any Subsidiary to cease
doing business with the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with
the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business
relation and the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) initiate or engage in any
discussions regarding an acquisition of, or Executive's employment (whether as
an employee, an independent contractor or otherwise) by, any businesses in which
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has entertained discussions or has
requested and received information relating to the acquisition of such business
by the Company or its Subsidiaries upon or within the 18 month period prior to
the termination of the Executive's employment with the Company.

                  (c) ENFORCEMENT. If, at the time of enforcement of Section 8
or 9 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are
unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that
the maximum duration, scope or geographical area reasonable under such

                                       8
<PAGE>

circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that
the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover
the maximum duration, scope and area permitted by law. Because Executive's
services are unique and because Executive has access to confidential
information, the parties hereto agree that money damages would be an inadequate
remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or assigns
may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to
any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive
or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the
provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security).

shall be entitled to strike two names from the other party's list of firms, and

unless the appraiser's valuation is not less than 10% greater than the amount
determined by the Board, in which case, the costs of the appraiser shall be
borne by the Company. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and
binding upon all parties. If the Repurchase Option is exercised within 90 days
