     THIS AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT  AGREEMENT  ("Amendment")  is made and entered

     WHEREAS,  the Executive  has been  employed by the Company  pursuant to the
terms  of  an  employment   agreement  dated  January  1,  1990  (the  "Original
Agreement"),  as amended  December 5, 1990, (the "1990  Amendment"),  January 3,
1994  (the  "1994  Amendment"),  and  April  15,  1995  (the  "1995  Amendment")
(collectively, the "Executive Agreement");

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ the Executive to perform
the  duties  described  in the  Original  Agreement  (as  amended  by  the  1990
Amendment,   the  1994  Amendment  and  the  1995  Amendment,   the  "Employment
Agreement").

     WHEREAS, the Executive desires to accept such continued employment with the
Company; and

     WHEREAS,  the  Executive  and the  Company  desire to amend the  Employment
Agreement as set forth herein;

     NOW THEREFORE,  based on the foregoing premises and in consideration of the
mutual  covenants  and  agreements  contained  herein,  and for  other  good and
valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.   Paragraph 2 of the Original Employment  Agreement as amended by paragraph 1
     of the 1995  Amendment,  is  amended  to make  the  term of the  Employment
     Agreement a period of seven years commencing on the date hereof (hereby the
     "Effective Date"), and shall continue until the seventh anniversary date of
     the Effective Date, provided however that the term of this Agreement may be
     continued  thereafter by renewal on a year to year basis, subject to mutual
     agreement  of the  parties  to the  Employment  Agreement,  if at least one
     hundred and eighty (180) days before the date of termination of the date of
     the initial term of this  agreement  and any renewal  hereof,  either party
     gives  the  other  written  notice  of the  intention  not to  extend  this
     Employment  Agreement as so provided.  All other terms and conditions  with
     this paragraph shall remain in full force and effect.

2.   Paragraph 2 (a), (b)(i), (ii) and 2 (c) of the 1995 Amendment is superseded
     by the following provisions:

         Options

(i)  The Executive  shall have the right to receive up to 40% of his annual Base
     Salary  in the  form of ten  (10)  year  non-qualified  stock  options  (as
     described in Section 422 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended)
     to  purchase  common  stock,  $.001 par value (the  "Common  Stock") of the
     Company  ("NQSOs").  The  Executive  shall  provide  written  notice to the
     Company of his intent to receive  NQSOs in lieu of a portion (not to exceed
     40%) of his salary (the "NQSO  Notice") no less than five days prior to the
     date on which his salary is payable.  The number of NQSOs  issuable in lieu
     of Base  Salary  shall be  determined  by  dividing  the amount of the Base
     Salary for which  options  are being  issued by one half of the closing bid
     price on the date the Base  Salary is  payable  as  reported  on the NASDAQ
     Stock Market ("NASDAQ").

(ii) In addition to the options that  Executive may elect to receive  during the
     year at his  option,  in lieu of base  salary  payments,  and in  order  to
     encourage  the  Executive  to use his  maximum  efforts  on  behalf  of the
     Company,  the  Company  shall grant to the  Executive  each year during the
     Initial  Term and each  renewal  term  additional  ten (10)  year  NQSOs to
     purchase one hundred  thousand  (100,000)  shares of the  Company's  Common
     Stock pursuant to the Company's 1998 Stock Option Plan or such other option
     plan as may then be in  effect  (the  "Plan").  The  exercise  price of the
     options being issued shall be one half of the closing bid price as reported
     on NASDAQ on the date of the acquisition's closing.

(iii)As an additional part of the Executive's  incentive option arrangement,  in
     the event that during the Initial  Term or any  renewal  term,  the Company
     acquires any other  business  entity  (whether a corporation  or otherwise)
     introduced to the Company by the Executive, the Executive shall be entitled
     to  receive  additional  ten (10) year  NQSOs to  purchase  (x) a number of
     shares of the Company's Common Stock having a fair market value (based upon
     the market price of the Common Stock on the date of such acquisition) in an
     amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the  consideration  paid in cash, plus
     (y) 10% of the number of shares of the Company's  Securities issued in such
     acquisition  (with same rights as are attached to the securities  issued to
     the seller).  The exercise  price of the options  being issued shall be one
     half of the  closing  bid  price as  reported  on NASDAQ on the date of the
     acquisition's closing.

(iv) As an additional part of the Executive's  incentive option arrangement,  in
     the event that during the Initial  Term or any  renewal  term,  the Company
     organizes a subsidiary or enters into a joint venture or strategic business
     alliance with a third party introduced by the Employee and the Company owns
     a  majority  of the  capital  stock  and  other  equity  interests  of such
     subsidiary  or other  entity,  the  Employee  shall be  entitled to receive
     additional  ten (10)  year  NQSOs to  purchase  a number  of  shares of the
     Company's  Common  Stock having a fair market value (based upon the average
     of the closing  market  prices of the Common  Stock for the 30 trading days
     immediately preceding the end of each fiscal year of the subsidiary or such
     other  entity) in an amount  equal to ten percent  (10%) of the pre-tax net
     profits of such  subsidiary  or other entity for each of the first five (5)
     fiscal years of such subsidiary or other entity.  The exercise price should
     be fifty percent of the closing bid price of the Company's stock on the day
     of the end of the fiscal year of such subsidiary or other entity.

(v)  As an additional part of the Executive's  incentive option arrangement,  in
     the event that the Executive is successful  in raising  additional  capital
     for the Company  during the terms hereof or any extension of such term, the
     Executive  shall be entitled to receive  additional  ten (10) year NQSOs in
     amount  equal to the product of dividing  10% of the capital  raised by the
     fair market value of the Company's common stock at the date of closing. The
     exercise  price for the  options  being  issued  will be at one half of the
     closing bid price on the date of the financial transaction or at the end of
     the Company's fiscal year,  whichever bid price is lower.  Such NQSOs shall
     vest on the closing date of any such  acquisition  and be  exercisable at a
     price equal to one half of the closing bid price for the  Company's  Common
     Stock as reported on the NASDAQ on such date.

(vi) As  additional  compensation,  the Company will grant to the  Executive the
     following  number of Shares of the Company's  Common  Stock,  which are not
     registered  under  the Act,  upon the  occurrence  of any of the  following
     events:

     (a)  Options to purchase  100,000 Shares in the fiscal year that "Operating
          Income" (as defined in Paragraph 2(d) in the 1995 Amendment), is equal
          to or greater than $100,000,  and (2) in each  successive  fiscal year
          Operating  Income  increases by 10% as compared to the previous fiscal
          year; and

     (b)  Options to purchase  50,000 Shares if Gross Revenue of any  subsidiary
          or  intermediary  subsidiary  increases  by  15% in  any  fiscal  year
          compared to the previous fiscal year.

          The exercise price of such options  granted  hereunder  shall be fifty
     percent the closing bid price on the last day of the fiscal year.

(vii)(a)  If there is any stock  dividend,  stock split,  or  combination of
          shares of Common Stock of the Company, the number and amount of shares
          then subject to this option shall be proportionately and appropriately
          adjusted;  no change shall be made in the aggregate  purchase price to
          be paid for all  shares  subject  to this  option,  but the  aggregate
          purchase  price shall be allocated  among all shares,  subject to this
          option after giving effect to the adjustment.

     (b)  If there is any change in the Common Stock of the  Company,  including
          recapitalization, reorganization, sale or exchange of assets, exchange
          of  shares,   offering  of  subscription   rights,   or  a  merger  or
          consolidation in which the Company is the surviving  corporation,  all
          of  the  options  granted  to  the  Executive  under  the  Executive's
          Agreement,  shall be immediately exercisable.  Failure of the Board of
          Directors to provide for an adjustment  pursuant to this  subparagraph
          prior to the effective date of any Company  action  referred to herein
          shall  be  conclusive  evidence  that no  adjustment  is  required  in
          consequence of such action.

     (c)  If  the  Company  is  merged  into  or  consolidated  with  any  other
          corporation,  or if it sells all or substantially all of its assets to
          any  other  corporation,  then  either  (i) the  Company  shall  cause
          provisions  to be made for the  continuance  of this option after such
          event, or for the  substitution  for this option of an option covering
          the number and class of securities which the Executive would have been
          entitled to receive in such mergers or consolidation by virtue of such
          sale if the  Executive  had been the  holder  or record of a number of
          shares of Common Stock of the Company  equal to the number  covered by
          the unexercised portion of this option, or (ii) the Company shall give
          to the  Executive  written  notice of its  election  not to cause such
          provision to be made and this option shall be exercisable in full (or,
          at the election of the Executive, in part) at any time during a period
          of twenty days, to be designated by the Company,  ending not more than
          10 days prior to the effective  date of the merger,  consolidation  or
          sale, in which case this option shall not be exercisable to any extent
          after the  expiration  of such 20 day  period.  In no event,  however,
          shall this option be exercisable after the Termination Date.

3.       Expenses

     The Company shall pay all original issue and transfer taxes with respect to
the issuance and transfer of shares of stock pursuant thereto and all other fees
and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith.

4.       Notice of Exercise of Options

(a)  The person  exercising an option shall not be considered a record holder of
     the  Stock  so  purchased  for any  purpose  until  the date on which he is
     actually  recorded  as the  holder  of such  stock  in the  records  of the
     Company.

(b)  This option shall be exercisable whether or not Executive shall continue to
     be an employee of the Company,  or early,  normal or deferred retirement or
     prior to the earlier date on which the option  expires in  accordance  with
     its terms,  except that if the  Executive  is an employee of the Company at
     the  time of his  death,  then  this  option  shall be  exercisable  by his
     personal  representative  or heirs,  as the case may be,  within the twelve
     month period next  succeeding the death of the  Executive,  or prior to the
     earlier date on which the option expires in accordance with its terms.

5.   Binding Upon Heirs,  Successors and Assigns.  This Amendment shall inure to
     the  benefit  of and be binding  upon,  The  Company,  its  successors  and
     assigns, including, without limitation, any person, partnership, company or
     corporation which may acquire  substantially all of The Company's assets or
     business,   or  with  or  into  which  The  Company   may  be   liquidated,
     consolidated, merged, or otherwise combined, and shall inure to the benefit
     of the Executive, his heirs, distributees and personal representatives, and
     be binding upon the Executive.

6.   Waiver. The failure of either party to insist in any one or more instances,
     upon  performance  of any of the terms,  covenants  or  conditions  of this
     Amendment shall not be construed as a waiver of further  performance of any
     such term, covenant or condition,  but the obligations of either party with
     respect thereto shall continue in full force and effect.

     11,  1998,  this  Amendment  supersedes  the  terms and  provisions  of the
     Employment  Agreement and any previous agreements between the Executive and

     adjudged  by  any  court  of  competent   jurisdiction  to  be  invalid  or
     unenforceable,  such judgment  shall not affect,  impair or invalidate  the
     remainder of this Agreement,  but shall be confined in its operation to the
     provisions of this Agreement  directly involved in the controversy in which
     such judgment shall have been rendered.
