be employed by the Company, on the terms set forth herein;

      NOW THEREFORE,  in consideration of the mutual covenants  contained herein
and other good and valuable consideration,  the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      Section 1. Employment. The Company hereby employs Executive, and Executive

      Section 2. Position and Duties.  During the Employment  Period,  Executive
will serve as Chief Operating Officer of the Company and render such managerial,
analytical, administrative,  marketing, creative and other executive services to
the Company and its Affiliates, as are from time to time necessary in connection

illness or other  incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its
Affiliates.  Executive will perform his duties and  responsibilities to the best
of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy,  businesslike and efficient manner.

regular  installments in accordance  with the general  payroll  practices of the
Company. After the first twelve (12) months of the Employment Period,  Executive

the Company.

      (d) Reimbursement of Expenses.  During the Employment  Period, the Company

documentation of such expenses.

      Section 4. Termination.

      (a) The  Employment  Period  will  continue  until  the  earlier  of:  (i)
Executive's  resignation (A) for Good Reason on 30 days' written notice, (B) for
any other reason or no reason (a  resignation  described  in this clause  (i)(B)
being a resignation  by the Executive  "Without Good Reason") or (C) as a result
of  Executive's   death  or  Disability,   which  resignation  shall  be  deemed
automatically tendered upon Executive's death or Disability;  or (ii) the giving
of  notice  of  termination  by the  Company  (A) for Cause or (B) for any other
reason or for no reason (a termination  described in this clause (ii)(B) being a
termination by the Company  "Without  Cause").  For purposes of this  Agreement,
"Cause"  means (i) any  willful or  intentional  act of  Executive  that has the
effect of injuring the  reputation or business of the Company or its  Affiliates
in any material respect,  (ii) Executive's use of illegal drugs,  (iii) that the
Executive has materially failed to perform his duties hereunder and such failure
continues  uncured  for 30  days  after  notice  to  Executive  by the  Company;
provided,  the  foregoing  notice  shall only be  required  with  respect to one
material  breach  that  occurs  in any  12-month  period,  or  (iv)  Executive's
indictment,  conviction  or a plea of guilty or no contest or similar  plea with
respect to, a felony,  an act of fraud or  embezzlement,  a breach of  fiduciary
duty  to the  Company  or any of its  Subsidiaries,  or a (v)  breach  of any of
Sections 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement. For the purposes of


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

this  Agreement,  "Good  Reason"  means (i) any  substantial  diminution  in the
Executive's  professional  responsibilities,  (ii)  any  intentional  act  which
creates  a  workplace  environmental  that,  by duress  or  otherwise,  makes it
impossible for Executive to continue his employment, (iii) a reduction in Salary
or the overall level of other  compensation  and benefits to which  Executive is
entitled  under this  Agreement,  or (iv) the  failure by the Company to pay the
Executive any portion of the Executive's current  compensation when due and such
failure  continues  for 7 days after notice to Company from  Executive  provided
that the  foregoing  notice  shall  only be  required  with  respect to one such
failure  in any  12-month  period.  For  avoidance  of doubt,  Executive  hereby
acknowledges  that the Board may from time to time  reorganize the operations of
the Company resulting in a change in Executive's title or direct employer, which
change alone shall not constitute Good Reason so long as (A) any change in title
or  reporting   responsibilities   results  in  no  substantial   diminution  in
Executive's  responsibilities and (B) any new direct employer agrees to be bound
by the terms and conditions of this Agreement,  without  modification other than
to reflect the change in title and employer.

      (b) In the  event  the  Employment  Period is  terminated  by the  Company
Without  Cause or the  Executive  resigns  for  Good  Reason,  then,  so long as
Executive continues to comply with Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof, Executive will be
entitled to continue to receive an amount (the  "Severance  Amount")  during the
three (3) month period  following the  Termination  Date or during the remaining
period of the first twelve (12) months of the  Employment  Period,  whichever is
longer (the  "Severance  Term") equal to the Salary in effect at the Termination
Date and payable in accordance with the Company's  regular  payment  schedule in
effect at the  Termination  Date. In addition,  in connection  with  termination
described in the preceding sentence,  Executive shall be entitled to receive (x)
any incentive payments earned and accrued but not yet paid to Executive prior to
the Termination  Date, (y) continued  medical coverage during the Severance Term
pursuant  to COBRA at the  Company's  expense;  and (z) all  accrued  and unpaid
Salary  and  unused  vacation  time  through  the   Termination   Date  and  all
unreimbursed  business expenses incurred through the Termination Date; provided,
as a  condition  to  receiving  the  Severance  Amount or any payment or benefit
described  in  paragraphs  4(b)(x) and 4(b)(y),  Executive  shall be required to
execute  and  deliver to the  Company  immediately  prior to the payment of such
first installment a release in the form of Exhibit A.

      (c)  In  the  event  the  Employment  Period  is  terminated  due  to  the
Executive's  death,  or  resignation  Without Good Reason or by the Company with
Cause then,  so long as Executive  continues to comply with  Sections 6, 7 and 8
hereof,  Executive will be entitled to receive the items described in paragraphs
4(b)(x) and 4(b)(z) above.

      (d) In the event the  Employment  Period is terminated by the Executive or
the Company due to the Executive's Disability,  then the Executive shall receive
his monthly  Salary and benefits  through the end of the calendar month is which
such  termination  occurs and,  so long as  Executive  continues  to comply with
Sections  6, 7 and 8 hereof,  Executive  will be  entitled  to receive the items
described in Sections 4(b)(x),(y) and (z) above.

      Section 5. Resignation as Officer or Director.  Upon the Termination Date,
Executive  will be deemed to have  resigned  from each position (if any) that he
then holds as an officer or director of the Company and each of its  Affiliates,
and Executive will take any and all


                                      -3-
<PAGE>

reasonable  action  that the Company may request in order to confirm or evidence
such resignation.

      Section  6.  Confidential  Information.  Executive  acknowledges  that the
information,  observations and data that may be obtained by Executive during his
employment  relationship  with,  or through  his  involvement  as a  consultant,
contractor,   representative,  agent,  officer,  director,  partner,  member  or
stockholder of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates thereof (each
of the Company,  any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates being a "Related Company"
and, collectively, the "Related Companies"), prior to and after the date of this
Agreement   concerning  the  business  or  affairs  of  the  Related   Companies
(collectively,  "Confidential  Information") are and will be the property of the
Related Companies.  Therefore, Executive agrees that he will not disclose to any
unauthorized  Person or use for the  account of himself or any other  Person any
Confidential  Information  without the prior written  consent of the Company (by
the  action of the  Board),  unless  and to the  extent  that such  Confidential
Information  has become  generally  known to and available for use by the public
other than as a result of  Executive's  improper acts or omissions to act, or is
required to be disclosed by law. Executive will deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Company at, or within two days of, the Termination  Date, or at any other
time the Company may request,  all memoranda,  notes, plans,  records,  reports,
computer  tapes and software and other  documents and data (and copies  thereof)
containing  or  relating  to  Confidential  Information  or the  business of any
Related Company which Executive may then possess or have under his control.

      Section 7. Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation.

      (a)  Non-Compete.   Executive  acknowledges  that  during  his  employment
relationship  with,  or through his  involvement  as a  consultant,  contractor,
representative, agent, officer, director, partner, member or stockholder of, the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries,  or any of their respective  Affiliates or any
predecessor  thereof,  Executive has and will become familiar with trade secrets
and  Confidential  Information  concerning such  companies,  and with investment
opportunities  relating to their  respective  businesses,  and that  Executive's
services have been and will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the
foregoing entities. Therefore, Executive agrees that, during his employment with
the  Company  and for one year  after the  Termination  Date  (the  "Non-Compete
Period"), he will not, directly or indirectly,  invest in, own, manage, operate,
finance,  control,  or  participate  in the  ownership,  management,  operation,
financing,  or control of, be employed by, render  services to, or in any manner
connected  with any  business  (in each case  including  on his own behalf or on
behalf of another  Person),  whose products,  services or activities  compete in
whole or in part with the products, services or activities of the Company or its
Affiliates, as they now exist or may exist during such one year period, anywhere
within the United  States;  provided,  however,  that  Executive may purchase or
otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) 2% of any class of securities of any
enterprise (but without  otherwise  directly or indirectly  participating in the
activities of such  enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or
regional  securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934.  Executive  agrees  that  this  covenant  is
reasonable  with  respect to its  duration,  geographical  area,  and scope.  By
initialing in the space provided below,  Executive acknowledges that he has read
carefully and had the  opportunity  to consult with legal counsel  regarding the
provisions of this Section 7(a). _____ [initial].


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

      (b)  Non-Solicitation.  During his employment with the Company and for two
years  thereafter,  Executive  will not  directly  or  indirectly  (i) induce or
attempt to induce any employee or  independent  contractor of the Company or any
Subsidiary,  or their  respective  Affiliates to leave the employ or contracting
relationship  with such entity,  or in any way interfere  with the  relationship
between  any such entity and any  employee,  or (ii) induce or attempt to induce
any  customer,  supplier  or  other  business  relation  of the  Company  or any
Subsidiary,  or their respective  Affiliates,  to cease doing business with such
entity or in any way interfere with the relationship  between any such customer,
supplier or other business  relation and such entity. By initialing in the space
provided below,  Executive  acknowledges  that he has read carefully and had the
opportunity  to consult with legal  counsel  regarding  the  provisions  of this
Section 7(b). _____ [initial].

      Section  8.  Inventions  and  Patents.  Executive  acknowledges  that  all
inventions,  innovations,  improvements, know how, plans, development,  methods,
designs, analyses,  specifications,  software, drawings, reports and all similar
or related information  (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice) which
relate to any of the Company's actual or proposed business  activities and which
are  created,  designed or  conceived,  developed  or made by  Executive  during
Executive's past or future employment by the Company, or any Subsidiary,  or any
predecessor thereof ("Work Product") belong to the Company, or its Subsidiaries,
as  applicable.  Any  copyrightable  work falling  within the definition of Work
Product  shall be deemed a "work made for hire" and ownership of all right title
and interest shall rest in the Company.  Executive hereby  irrevocably  assigns,
transfers and conveys, to the full extent permitted by law, all right, title and
interest in the Work Product, on a worldwide basis, to the Company to the extent
ownership of any such rights does not  automatically  vest in the Company  under
applicable  law.  Executive will promptly  disclose any such Work Product to the
Company  and perform all actions  requested  by the Company  (whether  during or
after employment) to establish and confirm ownership of such Work Product by the
Company (including without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney
and other instruments.)

      Section 9.  Enforcement.  The Company and Executive  agree that if, at the
time of  enforcement  of  Section  6, 7 or 8  hereof,  a court  holds  that  any
restriction stated in any such Section is unreasonable under  circumstances then
existing,  then the maximum period,  scope or geographical area reasonable under
such  circumstances  will be substituted  for the stated period,  scope or area.
Because  Executive's  services  are unique and because  Executive  has access to
information of the type described in Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof, the Company and
Executive agree that money damages would be an inadequate  remedy for any breach
of Section 6, 7 or 8 hereof. Therefore, in the event of a breach of Section 6, 7
or 8 hereof,  the Company and any  Subsidiary  thereof 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  relief in order to
enforce,  or prevent  any  violations  of, the  provisions  of Section 6, 7 or 8
hereof.  The provisions of Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof are intended to be for the
benefit  of  the  Company  and  any  Subsidiary  thereof  and  their  respective
successors and assigns.  Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof will survive and continue in
full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the
Employment  Period.  By  initialing  in  the  space  provided  below,  Executive
acknowledges  that he has read carefully and had the opportunity to consult with
legal counsel regarding the provisions of this Section 9. ______ [initial].

Agreement) and the past,  present and future  stockholders,  members,  partners,
directors, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, legal representatives,
successors  and assigns of the foregoing,  in their personal and  representative
capacities (collectively, the "Company Parties"), from liability for, and hereby
waives, any and all claims,  damages, or causes of action of any kind related to
Employee's   employment  with  any  Company  Party,   the  termination  of  such
employment, and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to
the date of this Agreement  including  without  limitation any alleged violation
through the date of this Agreement of: (i) the Age  Discrimination in Employment

amended;  (iii) the Civil Rights Act of 1991;  (iv) Section 1981 through 1988 of

and all  rights,  benefits  or claims  Employee  may have  under any  employment

agreeing that, in exchange for the  consideration  recited in the first sentence
of this paragraph, any and all potential claims of this nature that Employee may
have against the Company Parties, regardless of whether they actually exist, are
expressly settled,  compromised and waived. By signing this Agreement,  Employee

Agreement.  This  release  also  applies to any claims  brought by any person or
agency or class  action under which  Employee may have a right or benefit.  THIS
RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER
GROSS OR SIMPLE)  OR OTHER  FAULT,  INCLUDING  STRICT  LIABILITY,  OF ANY OF THE
COMPANY PARTIES.

      Employee  agrees  not to  bring  or join any  lawsuit  against  any of the
Company  Parties in any court relating to any of the Released  Claims.  Employee
represents  that  Employee  has not  brought or joined any  lawsuit or filed any
charge or claim  against any of the  Company  Parties in any court or before any
government agency and has made no assignment of any rights Employee has asserted
or may have against any of the Company Parties to any person or entity,  in each
case,  with  respect to any  Released  Claims.  If Employee  brings or joins any
lawsuit  against  any  of the  Company  Parties  in  any  court  or  before  any
arbitration  tribunal  (except as necessary to protect  Employee's  rights under
this release or with respect to Employee's entry into this release)  relating to
any of the  Released  Claims,  and  Employee  is the  prevailing  party  in such
lawsuit,  Employee  shall be obligated to return to the Company all amounts paid
to Employee under this release, to the extent permitted under applicable law and
ordered by the court or arbitration  tribunal,  as applicable.  Further,  if any
Company Party is the  prevailing  party in any lawsuit  Employee  brings against
such Company Party relating to Employee's  employment or other matters that have
been released or waived in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable
law (such as if  Employee's  claim are found to be  brought  in bad  faith),  in
addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, Employee agrees to
pay all  costs  and  expenses  incurred  by such  person  or  entity,  including
reasonable attorneys' fees, in defending against such lawsuit.

      By executing and delivering this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that:

      (a) Employee has carefully read this Agreement;

      (b) Employee has had at least 21 days to consider  this  Agreement  before
the execution and delivery hereof to the Company;

      (c) Employee has been and hereby is advised in writing that  Employee may,
at  Employee's  option,  discuss this  Agreement  with an attorney of Employee's
choice and that Employee has had adequate opportunity to do so; and

      (d)  Employee  fully  understands  the  final and  binding  effect of this
Agreement;  the only promises made to Employee to sign this  Agreement are those
stated in the  Employment  Agreement  and herein;  and  Employee is signing this
Agreement  voluntarily  and of  Employee's  own free  will,  and  that  Employee
understands and agrees to each of the terms of this Agreement.

      Notwithstanding the initial effectiveness of this Agreement,  Employee may
revoke the delivery (and therefore the  effectiveness)  of this Agreement within
the seven day period  beginning on the date Employee  delivers this Agreement to
the Company  (such  seven day period  being  referred to herein as the  "Release
Revocation Period"). To be effective,  such revocation must be in writing signed
by Employee and must be delivered to the Company before 11:59 p.m.,  Louisville,
Kentucky time, on the last day of the Release Revocation Period. If an effective
revocation is delivered in the foregoing  manner and  timeframe,  this Agreement
shall be of no force  or  effect  and  shall  be null  and  void ab  initio.  No
consideration  shall be paid if this  Agreement  is revoked by  Employee  in the
foregoing manner.
