continued availability of Executive.

         C.       The Company desires to employ Executive, and Executive desires

the Company and Executive.

                                    AGREEMENT

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, terms,
covenants, and conditions set forth herein and the performance of each, it is
hereby agreed as follows:

         1. EMPLOYMENT AND DUTIES.

                  (a) EMPLOYMENT. The Company hereby employs Executive, and
Executive hereby agrees to act, as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of
the Company. As such, Executive shall have responsibilities, duties, and
authority reasonably accorded to, expected of, and consistent with Executive's
position, and Executive shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer and
to the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"). Executive hereby accepts
this employment upon the terms and conditions herein contained and, subject to
paragraph l(c) hereof, agrees to devote his best efforts and substantially all
of his business time and attention to promote and further the business of the
Company.

                  (b) POLICIES. Executive shall faithfully adhere to, execute,
and fulfill all lawful policies established by the Company.

                  (c) OTHER ACTIVITIES. Executive shall not, during the term of
his employment hereunder, be engaged in any other business activity pursued for
gain, profit, or other pecuniary advantage if such activity interferes in any
material respect with Executive's duties and responsibilities hereunder. The
foregoing limitations shall not be construed as prohibiting Executive from (i)
making personal investments in such form or manner as will neither require his
services in the operation or affairs of the companies or enterprises in which
such investments are made nor subject Executive to any conflict of interest with
respect to his

<PAGE>

duties to the Company, (ii) serving on any civic or charitable boards or
committees, (iii) delivering lectures or fulfilling speaking engagements, or
(iii) serving, with the written approval of the Board, as a director of one or
more public corporations, in each case so long as any such activities do not
significantly interfere with the performance of Executive's responsibilities
under this Agreement.

                  (d) PLACE OF PERFORMANCE. Executive shall not be required by
the Company or in the performance of his duties to relocate his primary
residence.

         2. COMPENSATION. For all services rendered by Executive, the Company
shall compensate Executive as follows:

                  (a) BASE SALARY Effective the date hereof, the base salary
payable to Executive shall be Two Hundred Twenty-five Thousand Dollars
($225,000) per year, payable on a regular basis in accordance with the Company's
standard payroll procedures, but not less than monthly. On at least an annual
basis, the Board or a committee of the Board shall review Executive's
performance and may make increases to such base salary if, in its sole
discretion, any such increase is warranted. In no event shall Executive's base
salary be reduced to a level below Two Hundred Twenty-five Thousand Dollars
($225,000).

                  (b) BONUS OR OTHER INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. Executive shall be
eligible to receive a bonus or other incentive compensation as may be determined
by the Board or a committee of the Board based upon such factors as the Board or
such committee, in its sole discretion, may deem relevant, including, without
limitation, the performance of Executive and the Company; provided, however,
that the Board or a committee of the Board shall establish for each fiscal year
of the Company a bonus program in which Executive shall be entitled to
participate, which provides Executive with a reasonable opportunity, based on
the past compensation practices of the Company and Executive's then base salary,
to maintain or increase Executive's total compensation compared to the previous
fiscal year.

                  (c) EXECUTIVE PERQUISITES, BENEFITS, AND OTHER COMPENSATION.
Executive shall be entitled to receive additional benefits and compensation from
the Company in such form and to such extent as specified below:

                           (i)      REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES. Reimbursement
for business travel and other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by
Executive in the performance of his services under this Agreement. All
reimbursable expenses shall be appropriately documented in reasonable detail by
Executive upon submission of any request for reimbursement and shall be in a
format and manner consistent with the Company's expense reporting policy.

                           (ii)     VACATION. Paid vacation in accordance with
the applicable policy of the Company as in effect from time to time, but in no
event shall Executive be entitled to less than four (4) weeks paid vacation per
year.

                           (iii)    OTHER EXECUTIVE PERQUISITES. The Company
shall provide Executive with other executive perquisites as may be made
available to or deemed appropriate for Executive by the Board or a committee of
the Board and participation in all other Company-

                                       2

<PAGE>

wide employee benefits (including group insurance, pension, retirement, and
other plans and programs) as are available to the Company's executive officers
from time to time.

         3. NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT.

                  (a) NON-COMPETITION. Executive shall not, during the period of
his employment by or with the Company, and for a period equal to the longer of
two (2) years immediately following the termination of his employment under this
Agreement or the time during which severance payments are being made by the
Company to Executive in accordance with this Agreement, for any reason
whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in
conjunction with any other person:

                           (i)      OTHER ACTIVITIES. Engage, as an officer,
director, shareholder, owner, principal, partner, lender, joint venturer,
employee, independent contractor, consultant, advisor, or sales representative,
in any Competitive Business within the Restricted Territory;

                           (ii)     SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Call upon any
person who is, at that time, within the Restricted Territory, an employee of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, in a managerial capacity for the purpose or
with the intent of enticing such employee away from or out of the employ of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries;

                           (iii)    SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS. Call upon any
person or entity that is, at that time, or that has been, within one (1) year
prior to that time, a customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, within
the Restricted Territory for the purpose of soliciting or selling products or
services in direct competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries
within the Restricted Territory;

                           (iv)     SOLICITATION OF ACQUISITION CANDIDATES. Call
upon any prospective acquisition candidate, on Executive's own behalf or on
behalf of any person, which candidate was, to Executive's knowledge after due
inquiry, either called upon by the Company, or for which the Company made an
acquisition analysis, for the purpose of acquiring such candidate.

                  (b) CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. As used in this Agreement, the
following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them:

                           (i)      COMPETITIVE BUSINESS shall mean any person
that sells, rents, brokers, leases, stores, repairs, restores, or services
recreational boats or other boating products or provides services relating to
recreational boats or other boating products;

                           (ii)     PERSON shall mean any individual,
corporation, limited liability company, partnership, firm, or other business of
whatever nature;

                           (iii)    RESTRICTED TERRITORY shall mean any state or
other political jurisdiction in which, or any location within two hundred (200)
miles of which, the Company or any subsidiary of the Company maintains any
facilities; sells, rents, brokers, leases, stores,

                                       3

<PAGE>

repairs, restores, or services recreational boats or other boating products; or
provides services relating to recreational boats or other boating products; and

                           (iv)     SUBSIDIARY shall mean the Company's
consolidated subsidiaries, including corporations, partnerships, limited
liability companies, and any other business organization in which the Company
holds at least a fifty percent (50%) equity interest.

                  (c) ENFORCEMENT. Because of the difficulty of measuring
economic losses to the Company as a result of a breach of the foregoing
covenants, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that could be
caused to the Company for which it would have no other adequate remedy,
Executive agrees that the foregoing covenants may be enforced by the Company in
the event of breach by him, by injunctions and restraining orders.

                  (d) REASONABLE RESTRAINT. It is agreed by the parties that the
foregoing covenants in this paragraph 3 impose a reasonable restraint on
Executive in light of the activities and business of the Company (including the
Company's subsidiaries) on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the
current plans of the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries); but it is
also the intent of the Company and Executive that such covenants be construed
and enforced in accordance with the changing activities, business, and locations
of the Company (including the Company's subsidiaries) throughout the term of
this covenant, whether before or after the date of termination of the employment
of Executive. For example, if, during the term of this Agreement, the Company
(including the Company's subsidiaries) engages in new and different activities,
enters a new business, or establishes new locations for its current activities
or business in addition to or other than the activities or business enumerated
above or the locations currently established therefor, then Executive will be
precluded from soliciting the customers or employees of such new activities or
business or from such new location and from directly competing with such new
business within the Restricted Territory through the term of these covenants.

                  (e) OTHER ACTIVITIES. It is further agreed by the parties
that, in the event that Executive shall cease to be employed hereunder and
enters into a business or pursues other activities not in competition with the
Company (including the Company's subsidiaries), or similar activities or
business in locations, the operation of which, under such circumstances, does
not violate this paragraph 3, and in any event such new business, activities, or
location are not in violation of this paragraph 3 or of Executive's obligations
under this paragraph 3, if any, Executive shall not be chargeable with a
violation of this paragraph 3 if the Company (including the Company's
subsidiaries) shall thereafter enter the same, similar, or a competitive (i)
business, (ii) course of activities, or (iii) location, as applicable.

                  (f) SEPARATE COVENANTS. The covenants in this paragraph 3 are
severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall
not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any
court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time, or
territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of
the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent that the
court deems reasonable, and the Agreement shall thereby be reformed.

                                       4

<PAGE>

                  (g) INDEPENDENT AGREEMENT. All of the covenants in this
paragraph 3 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other
provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action
of Executive against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or
otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of
such covenants. It is specifically agreed that the period of two (2) years
following termination of employment stated at the beginning of this paragraph 3,
during which the agreements and covenants of Executive made in this paragraph 3
shall be effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any
time during which Executive is in violation of any provision of this paragraph
3.

         4. TERM; TERMINATION; RIGHTS ON TERMINATION.

                  (a) TERM. Unless terminated sooner as provided herein, the
term of Executive's employment under this Agreement shall begin on the date
hereof and continue for three (3) years thereafter (the "Initial Term") and
shall continue on a renewal basis from year to year thereafter (each a "Renewal
Term" and with the Initial Term, the "Term") on the same terms and conditions in
effect as of the time of the latest renewal unless and until notice of
non-renewal shall be given by either party to the other not less than sixty (60)
days prior to the end of the then current term.

                  (b) TERMINATION. Executive's employment under this Agreement
may be terminated in any one of the followings ways:

                           (i)      DEATH OF EXECUTIVE. The employment of
Executive shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death provided that the
Company shall, for a period of six (6) months following such death, pay to the
estate of Executive an amount equal to Executive's base salary and any earned
bonus. In the event of such termination, all options to purchase Common Stock of
the Company held by Executive shall thereupon vest and shall be exercisable
during their full term notwithstanding the termination of employment.

                           (ii)     DISABILITY OF EXECUTIVE. If, as a result of
incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, Executive shall have
been absent from his full-time duties hereunder for six (6) consecutive months,
then thirty (30) days after receiving written notice (which notice may occur
before or after the end of such six (6) month period, but which shall not be
effective earlier than the last day of such six (6) month period), the Company
may terminate Executive's employment provided Executive is unable to resume his
full-time duties at the conclusion of such notice period. Also, Executive may
terminate his employment if his health should become impaired to an extent that
makes the continued performance of his duties hereunder hazardous to his
physical or mental health or his life, provided that Executive shall have
furnished the Company with a written statement from a qualified doctor to such
effect and provided, further, that, at the Company's request made within thirty
(30) days of the date of such written statement, Executive shall submit to an
examination by a doctor selected by the Company who is reasonably acceptable to
Executive or Executive's doctor and such doctor shall have concurred in the
conclusion of Executive's doctor. In the event Executive's employment under this
Agreement is terminated as a result of Executive's disability, Executive shall
receive from the Company, in a lump-sum payment due within ten (10) days of the
effective date of termination, an amount equal to the average of the base salary
and bonus paid to Executive for

                                       5

<PAGE>

the two (2) prior full fiscal years, for the lesser of the time period then
remaining under the Term of this Agreement or for one (1) year. In the event of
such termination, all options to purchase Common Stock of the Company held by
Executive shall thereupon vest and shall be exercisable during their full term
notwithstanding the termination of employment.

                           (iii)    TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY FOR GOOD CAUSE.
The Company may terminate Executive's employment upon ten (10) days prior
written notice to Executive for "Good Cause," which shall mean any one or more
of the following: (A) Executive's willful, material, and irreparable breach of
this Agreement; (B) Executive's gross negligence in the performance or
intentional nonperformance (continuing for thirty (30) days after receipt of
written notice of need to cure) of any of Executive's material duties and
responsibilities hereunder; (C) Executive's willful dishonesty, fraud, or
misconduct with respect to the business or affairs of the Company, which
materially and adversely affects the operations or reputation of the Company;
(D) Executive's conviction of a felony crime involving dishonesty or moral
turpitude; or (E) a confirmed positive illegal drug test result. In the event of
a termination by the Company for Good Cause, Executive shall have no right to
any severance compensation.

                           (iv)     TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT GOOD
CAUSE OR BY EXECUTIVE WITH GOOD REASON; FAILURE OF THE COMPANY TO RENEW. The
Company may terminate Executive's employment without Good Cause during the Term
hereof upon the approval of a majority of the members of the Board, excluding
Executive if Executive is a member of the Board. Executive may terminate his
employment under this Agreement for Good Reason upon ten (10) days prior notice
to the Company. In addition, the Company may determine not to renew Executive's
employment under this Agreement.

                                    (A) RESULT OF TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY
WITHOUT GOOD CAUSE OR BY EXECUTIVE WITH GOOD REASON. Should the Company
terminate Executive's employment without Good Cause or should Executive
terminate his employment with Good Reason during the Term, or should the Company
determine not to renew Executive's employment under this Agreement at any time
following the Initial Term, the Company shall pay to Executive for eighteen (18)
months after such termination, on such dates as would otherwise be paid by the
Company, an amount equal to the average of the base salary and bonus paid to
Executive for the two (2) prior full fiscal years. Further, if the Company
terminates Executive's employment without Good Cause or Executive terminates his
employment with Good Reason, (1) all options to purchase Common Stock of the
Company held by Executive shall vest thereupon and shall be exercisable during
their full term notwithstanding the termination of employment, and (2) Executive
shall be entitled to receive all other unpaid benefits due and owing through
Executive's last day of employment. Further, any termination by the Company
without Good Cause or by Executive for Good Reason shall operate to shorten the
period of non-competition set forth in paragraph 3 and during which the terms of
paragraph 3 apply to one (1) year from the date of termination of employment.

                                    (B) DEFINITION OF GOOD REASON. Executive
shall have "Good Reason" to terminate his employment upon the occurrence of any
of the following events: (1) Executive is demoted by means of a reduction in
authority, responsibilities, or duties; (2) Executive's annual base salary as
determined pursuant to paragraph 2 is reduced to a level that is

                                       6

<PAGE>

less than ninety percent (90%) of the base salary paid to Executive during the
prior contract year under this Agreement; (3) a change is made in Executive's
bonus other than as contemplated by paragraph 2(b), unless Executive has agreed
in writing to that demotion, reduction, or change; or (4) the Company breaches a
material provision of this Agreement.

                           (v)      RESIGNATION BY EXECUTIVE WITHOUT GOOD
REASON. Executive may, without cause, and without Good Reason terminate his own
employment under this Agreement, effective thirty (30) days after written notice
is provided to the Company or such earlier time as any such resignation may be
accepted by the Company. If Executive resigns or otherwise terminates his
employment without Good Reason, Executive shall receive no severance
compensation.

                           (vi)     CHANGE IN CONTROL OF THE COMPANY.

                                    (A) POSSIBILITY OF CHANGE IN CONTROL.
Executive understands and acknowledges that the Company may be merged or
consolidated with or into another entity and that such entity shall
automatically succeed to the rights and obligations of the Company hereunder or
that the Company may undergo another type of Change in Control. In the event
such a merger or consolidation or other Change in Control is initiated prior to
the end of the Term, then the provisions of this paragraph 4(b)(vi) shall be
applicable.

                                    (B) TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE. Subject to the
exceptions set forth in paragraph 4(b)(vi)(E), if any Change of Control is
initiated during Executive's employment hereunder, Executive may, at his sole
discretion, elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by providing
written notice to the Company at least five (5) business days at any time prior
to or within one (1) year after the closing of the transaction giving rise to
the Change in Control. In such case, the applicable provisions of paragraph
4(b)(iv) hereof will apply as though the Company had terminated Executive's
employment without Good Cause during the Term; however, under such
circumstances, the amount of the severance payments due to Executive shall be
paid in a lump sum, the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions of
paragraph 3 hereof shall all apply for a period of one (1) year from the
effective date of termination.

                                    (C) EFFECTIVE DATE OF CHANGE IN CONTROL. For
purposes of applying paragraph 4 hereof under the circumstances described in
4(b)(vi)(B) above, the effective date of the Change in Control will be the
closing date of the transaction giving rise to the Change in Control and all
compensation, reimbursements, and lump-sum payments due Executive must be paid
in full by the Company following such Change in Control promptly following
Executive's election to terminate his employment. Further, Executive will be
given sufficient time and opportunity to elect whether to exercise all or any of
his options to purchase the Company's Common Stock, such that he may convert the
options to shares of the Company's Common Stock at or prior to or within one (1)
year after the closing of the transaction giving rise to the Change in Control,
if he so desires.

                                    (D) DEFINITION OF CHANGE IN CONTROL. A
"Change in Control" shall mean a change in control of a nature that would be
required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation
14A promulgated under the Securities

                                       7

<PAGE>

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or
if Item 6(e) is no longer in effect, any regulations issued by the Securities
and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, which serve similar purposes; provided further that, without
limitation, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if and when:

                                             (1) TURNOVER OF BOARD. The
following individuals no longer constitute a majority of the members of the
Board: (A) the individuals who, as of the date of this Agreement, constitute the
Board (the "Current Directors"); (B) the individuals who thereafter are elected
to the Board and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was
approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Current Directors then
still in office (such directors becoming "Additional Directors" immediately
following their election); and (C) the individuals who are elected to the Board
and whose election, or nomination for election, to the Board was approved by a
vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Current Directors and Additional
Directors then still in office (such directors also becoming "Additional
Directors" immediately following their election);

                                             (2) TENDER OFFER. A tender offer or
exchange offer is made whereby the effect of such offer is to take over and
control the Company, and such offer is consummated for the equity securities of
the Company representing twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting
power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities;

                                             (3) MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION. The
stockholders of the Company shall approve a merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, or reorganization of the Company, a reverse stock split of
outstanding voting securities, or consummation of any such transaction if
stockholder approval is not obtained, other than any such transaction that would
result in at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the total voting power
represented by the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such transaction being beneficially owned by the holders of
outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to the
transaction, with the voting power of each such continuing holder relative to
other such continuing holders not substantially altered in the transaction; or

                                             (4) LIQUIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS.
The stockholders of the Company shall approve a plan of complete liquidation of
the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or
a substantial portion of the Company's assets to another person or entity, which
is not a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (i.e., fifty percent (50%) or
more of the total assets of the Company).

                                    (E) EXCEPTIONS FROM CHANGE IN CONTROL. A
Change in Control shall not be considered to have taken place for purposes of
this paragraph 4 in the event that both (1) the Change in Control shall have
been specifically approved by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Current and
Additional Directors (as defined above) and (2) the provisions of this Agreement
remain in full force and effect as to Executive. Sales of the Company's Common
Stock beneficially owned or controlled by the Company shall not be considered in
determining whether a Change in Control has occurred.

compensation subsequent to termination, if any, will be due and payable to
Executive only to the extent and in the manner expressly provided above. All
other rights and obligations of the Company and Executive under this Agreement
shall cease as of the effective date of termination, except that the Company's
obligations under paragraph 8 (relating to indemnification of Executive) and
Executive's obligations under paragraph 3 (relating to non-competition),
paragraph 5 (relating to return of Company property), paragraph 6 (relating to
inventions), paragraph 7 (relating to trade secrets), and paragraph 9 (relating
to prior agreements) shall survive such termination in accordance with their
terms.

                  (d) FAILURE TO PAY EXECUTIVE. If termination of Executive's
employment arises out of the Company's failure to pay Executive on a timely
basis the amounts to which he is entitled under this Agreement or as a result of
any other breach of this Agreement by the Company, as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction or pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 14, the
Company shall pay all amounts and damages to which Executive may be entitled as
a result of such breach, including interest thereon and all reasonable legal
fees and expenses and other costs incurred by Executive to enforce his rights
hereunder. Further, none of the provisions of paragraph 3 (relating to
non-competition) shall apply in the event Executive's employment under this
Agreement is terminated as a result of a breach by the Company.

         5. RETURN OF COMPANY PROPERTY. All records, designs, patents, business
plans, financial statements, manuals, memoranda, lists, and other property
delivered to or compiled by Executive by or on behalf of the Company (or its
subsidiaries) or its representatives, vendors, or customers that pertain to the
business of the Company (or its subsidiaries) shall be and remain the property
of the Company and be subject at all times to its discretion and control.
Likewise,

                                       9

<PAGE>

all correspondence, reports, records, charts, advertising materials, and other
similar data pertaining to the business, activities, or future plans of the
Company (or its subsidiaries) that is collected by Executive shall be delivered
promptly to the Company without request by it upon termination of Executive's
employment.

         6. INVENTIONS. Executive shall disclose promptly to the Company any and
all significant conceptions and ideas for inventions, improvements, and valuable
discoveries, whether patentable or not, which are conceived or made by
Executive, solely or jointly with another, during the period of employment or
within one (1) year thereafter, and which are directly related to the business
or activities of the Company (or its subsidiaries) and which Executive conceives
as a result of his employment by the Company. Executive hereby assigns and
agrees to assign all his interests therein to the Company or its nominee.
Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Executive shall execute any and all
applications, assignments, and other instruments that the Company shall deem
necessary to apply for and obtain Letters Patent of the United States or any
foreign country or to otherwise protect the Company's interest therein.

         7. TRADE SECRETS. Executive agrees that he will not, during or after
the period of employment under this Agreement, disclose the specific terms of
the Company's relationships or agreements with its respective significant
vendors or customers, or any other significant and material trade secret of the
Company, whether in existence or proposed, to any person, firm, partnership,
corporation, or business for any reason or purpose whatsoever.

         8. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event Executive is made a party to any
threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative, or investigative (other than an action by the Company
against Executive), by reason of the fact that he is or was performing services
under this Agreement, then the Company shall indemnify Executive against all
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in
settlement, as actually and reasonably incurred by Executive in connection
therewith to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The advancement of
expenses shall be mandatory. In the event that both Executive and the Company
are made a party to the same third-party action, complaint, suit, or proceeding,
the Company agrees to engage competent legal representation, and Executive
agrees to use the same representation, provided that if counsel selected by the
Company shall have a conflict of interest that prevents such counsel from
representing Executive, Executive may engage separate counsel and the Company
shall pay all attorneys' fees of such separate counsel. Further, while Executive
is expected at all times to use his best efforts to faithfully discharge his
duties under this Agreement, Executive cannot be held liable to the Company for
errors or omissions made in good faith if Executive has not exhibited gross,
willful, and wanton negligence and misconduct or performed criminal and
fraudulent acts that materially damage the business of the Company.
Notwithstanding this paragraph 8, the provision of any written indemnification
agreement applicable to the directors or officers of the Company to which
Executive shall be a party shall apply rather than this paragraph 8 to the
extent inconsistent with this paragraph 8.

         9. NO PRIOR AGREEMENTS. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the
Company that the execution of this Agreement by Executive and his employment by
the Company and the performance of his duties hereunder will not violate or be a
breach of any

                                       10

<PAGE>

agreement with a former employer, client, or any other person or entity.
Further, Executive agrees to indemnify the Company for any claim, including, but
not limited to, attorneys' fees and expenses of investigation, by any such third
party that such third party may now have or may hereafter come to have against
the Company based upon or arising out of any non-competition, invention, or
secrecy agreement between Executive and such third party that was in existence
as of the date of this Agreement.

         10. ASSIGNMENT; BINDING EFFECT. Executive understands that he is being
employed by the Company on the basis of his personal qualifications, experience,
and skills. Executive agrees, therefore, he cannot assign all or any portion of
his performance under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding two (2) sentences
and the express provisions of paragraph 11 below, this Agreement shall be
binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto
and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.

         11. COMPLETE AGREEMENT. This Agreement is not a promise of future
employment. Executive has no oral representations, understandings, or agreements
with the Company or any of its officers, directors, or representatives covering
the same subject matter as this Agreement. This written Agreement is the final,
complete, and exclusive statement and expression of the agreement between the
Company and Executive and of all the terms of this Agreement, and it cannot be
varied, contradicted, or supplemented by evidence of any prior or
contemporaneous oral or written agreements. This written Agreement may not be
later modified except by a further writing signed by a duly authorized officer
of the Company and Executive, and no term of this Agreement may be waived except
by writing signed by the party waiving the benefit of such term. This Agreement
hereby supersedes any other employment agreements or understandings, written or
oral, between the Company and Executive.

         12. NOTICE. Whenever any notice is required hereunder, it shall be
given in writing addressed as follows:

                                          Attention: Robert S. Kant, Esq.

         Notice shall be deemed given and effective on the earlier of three (3)

first class mail, certified,

                                       11

return receipt requested, or when actually received. Either party may change the
address for notice by notifying the other party of such change in accordance
with this paragraph 13.

         13. SEVERABILITY; HEADINGS. If any portion of this Agreement is held
invalid or inoperative, the other portions of this Agreement shall be deemed
valid and operative and, so far as is reasonable and possible, effect shall be
given to the intent manifested by the portion held invalid or inoperative. The
paragraph headings herein are for reference purposes only and are not intended
in any way to describe, interpret, define or limit the extent or intent of the
Agreement or of any part hereof.

         14. MEDIATION ARBITRATION. All disputes arising out of this Agreement
shall be resolved as set forth in this paragraph 15. If any party hereto desires
to make any claim arising out of this Agreement ("Claimant"), then such party
shall first deliver to the other party ("Respondent") written notice ("Claim
Notice") of Claimant's intent to make such claim explaining Claimant's reasons
for such claim in sufficient detail for Respondent to respond. Respondent shall
have ten (10) business days from the date the Claim Notice was given to
Respondent to object in writing to the claim ("Notice of Objection"), or
otherwise cure any breach hereof alleged in the Claim Notice. Any Notice of
Objection shall specify with particularity the reasons for such objection.
Following receipt of the Notice of Objection, if any, Claimant and Respondent
shall immediately seek to resolve by good faith negotiations the dispute alleged
in the Claim Notice, and may at the request of either party, utilize the
services of an independent mediator. If Claimant and Respondent are unable to
resolve the dispute in writing within ten (10) business days from the date
negotiations began, then without the necessity of further agreement of Claimant
or Respondent, the dispute set forth in the Claim Notice shall be submitted to
binding arbitration (except for claims arising out of paragraphs 3 or 7 hereof),
initiated by either Claimant or Respondent pursuant to this paragraph. Such
arbitration shall be conducted before a panel of three (3) arbitrators in Tampa,
Florida, in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment
Disputes of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") then in effect provided
that the parties may agree to use arbitrators other than those provided by the
AAA. The arbitrators shall not have the authority to add to, detract from, or
modify any provision hereof nor to award punitive damages to any injured party.
The arbitrators shall have the authority to order back-pay, severance
compensation, vesting of options (or cash compensation in lieu of vesting of
options), reimbursement of costs, including those incurred to enforce this
Agreement, and interest thereon in the event the arbitrators determine that
Executive was terminated without disability or without Good Cause, as defined in
paragraphs 4(b) and 4(c) hereof, respectively, or that the Company has otherwise
materially breached this Agreement. A decision by a majority of the arbitration
panel shall be final and binding. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators'
award in any court having jurisdiction. The direct expense of any mediation or
arbitration proceeding and, to the extent Executive prevails, all reasonable
legal fees shall be borne by the Company.

         15. NO PARTICIPATION IN SEVERANCE PLANS. Except as contemplated by this
Agreement, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation and other
benefits set forth in this Agreement are and shall be in lieu of any
compensation or other benefits that may otherwise be payable to or on behalf of
Executive pursuant to the terms of any severance pay arrangement of the Company
or any affiliate thereof, or any other similar arrangement of the

                                       12

<PAGE>

Company or any affiliates thereof providing for benefits upon involuntary
termination of employment.

         16. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall in all respects be construed
according to the laws of the state of Florida, notwithstanding the conflict of
laws provisions of such state.

         17. COUNTERPARTS; FACSIMILE. This Agreement may be executed by
facsimile and in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as
of the day and year first above written.
