     1.   Term of Agreement.  This Agreement will commence on the date hereof
          -----------------
and continue until the second anniversary of the date hereof (the "Term") unless
                                                                   ----

          ------

          (a)  Position.  Officer will be employed as Chief Marketing Officer
               --------
and General Manager, Network Management Tools and Solutions Group of the
Company, and as such will report to the Chief Executive Officer.

          (b)  Obligations to the Company.  Officer agrees to the best of his
               --------------------------
ability and experience that he will, to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Company, at all times loyally and conscientiously perform all of the duties and
obligations required of him pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Officer
will comply with and be bound by the Company's operating policies, procedures
and practices from time to time in effect during the Term.

     3.   Benefits.
          --------

          (a)  Compensation.  Officer shall not receive any guaranteed salary or
               ------------
base compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Officer will be eligible for
commissions based on the revenues of the Company, excluding any revenues
received by the Company from (i) its WebResolve products, (ii) any acquisitions,
joint ventures, mergers other than revenues from Seller (as hereinafter
defined), or (iii) any other material corporate transactions similar to those
stated in Section 3(a)(ii) hereof that add revenue to the Company (together with
(i) and (ii) above, collectively, the "Excluded Revenue Base"). The Company and
Officer may agree from time to time to modify or amend the definition of
Excluded Revenue Base, provided however that any such modification or amendment
shall be invalid and unenforceable unless it is in writing and is signed by both
an authorized executive officer of the Company and Officer.

          (b)  Commissions.  Provided that Officer continues his employment with
               -----------
the Company hereunder, from the date hereof, through the end of fiscal year
2001, Officer shall be eligible to earn commissions based on the following
percentage of the Company's revenue (after deducting the Excluded Revenue Base):

               (1)  one percent (1%) of revenue up to $20,000,000 for fiscal
year 2001; plus

               (2)  one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) of any incremental revenue
between $20,000,001 and $25,000,000 for fiscal year 2001; plus
<PAGE>

               (3)  two percent (2%) of any incremental revenue over $25,000,001
for fiscal year 2001.

          With respect to Officer's commissions for the partial month of the
Company's second fiscal quarter commencing on the date hereof and continuing
through June 30, 2001, Officer shall be entitled to commissions pursuant to the
following formula:  one percent (1%) of the Company's revenue (less the Excluded
Revenue Base) for the entire second fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2001 (the
"Second Quarter"), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of calendar days elapsed in the second quarter that Officer is employed
by the Company, and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in
the Second Quarter.

          Prior to the end of fiscal year 2001, the foregoing commission
structure shall be reviewed by the Compensation Committee and the Board of
Directors of the Company with Officer to determine a revised commission
structure based on revenue targets and percentage commission break points
similar to the fiscal year 2001 commission structure for fiscal year 2002.

          Officer shall receive a recapturable draw from the Company in
accordance with the Company's normal payroll practices (including applicable
withholdings and the like), for each fiscal quarter with an appropriate
adjustment (upward or downward) on the last payroll in the month following the
close of the fiscal quarter for which the actual commissions were earned.  From
time to time, the Company shall make a good faith estimate of the recapturable
draw for each fiscal quarter and shall pay Officer the applicable pro-rata
amount for each normal pay period during each such fiscal quarter.

          (c)  Employee Benefits.  While Officer is an employee of the Company,
               -----------------
Officer will be eligible to participate in the Company's employee benefit plans
of general application, including without limitation, those plans covering
medical, disability and life insurance in accordance with the rules established
for individual participation in any such plan and under applicable law.  While
Officer is an employee of the Company, Officer will be eligible for vacation and
sick leave in accordance with the Company's policies in effect from time to time
and will receive such other benefits as the Company generally provides to its
other employees of comparable position and experience.

          (d)  Expense Reimbursement.  The Company will reimburse Officer for
               ---------------------
all reasonable and necessary expenses actually and properly incurred by Officer
in connection with Officer's duties under this Agreement provided that Officer
first furnish receipts, reports, statements and vouchers for all such expenses
to the Company and such expenses are incurred in accordance with the Company's
general policies, procedures and guidelines regarding such expenditures (as such
may be amended from time to time by the Company in its discretion).

          -----------
definitions will apply:

          (a)  "Cause" for Officer's termination will exist if the Company
                -----
terminates Officer's employment for any of the following reasons: (i) Officer's
willful failure substantially to perform his duties hereunder (other than any
such failure due to Officer's physical or mental illness), and such willful
failure is not remedied within 10 business days after written notice from the
Chief Executive Officer or President, which written notice shall state that
failure to remedy such conduct may result in Termination for Cause, (ii)
Officer's engaging in willful and serious misconduct that has caused or is
reasonably expected to result in material injury to the Company and its
affiliates, taken as a whole, (iii) Officer's conviction of or entering a plea
of guilty or nolo contendere to a crime that constitutes a felony, or (iv)

written notice from the Chief Executive Officer, which written notice shall
state that failure to remedy such conduct may result in Termination for Cause.

          (b)  "Disability" shall mean that Officer has been unable to perform
                ----------
his duties hereunder as the result of his incapacity due to physical or mental
illness, and after its commencement such inability, which continues for at least
120 consecutive calendar days or 150 calendar days during any consecutive
twelve-month period, is determined to be total and permanent by a physician
selected by the Company and its insurers and acceptable to Officer or to

          ---------------------------------------------------------------
Officer will sign, or has signed, a Confidential Information and Invention
Assignment Agreement (the "Confidentiality Agreement") substantially in the form
                           -------------------------
attached hereto as Exhibit A.  Officer hereby represents and warrants to the
                   ---------
Company that he has complied with all obligations under the Confidentiality
Agreement and agrees to continue to abide by the terms of the Confidentiality
Agreement and further agrees that the provisions of the Confidentiality
Agreement will survive

                                       3
<PAGE>

any termination of this Agreement or of Officer's employment relationship with
the Company. Officer acknowledges that upon breach of the confidentiality
provisions contained in this Section 6, the Company would sustain irreparable
harm from such breach, and, therefore, Officer agrees that in addition to any
other remedies which the Company may have under this Agreement, the
Confidentiality Agreement or otherwise, the Company will be entitled to obtain
equitable relief, including specific performance and injunctions, restraining
him from committing or continuing any such violation of this Agreement or the
Confidentiality Agreement.

     7.   Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Covenants; Breach of Agreement.
          -----------------------------------------------------------------

          (a)  Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Covenants.  In consideration
              --------------------------------------------
for the Company's entering into this Agreement and for the payment of any
benefits hereunder, Officer hereby agrees that he will not, during the Term, do
any of the following without the prior written consent of the Chief Executive
Officer:

               (i)    Compete.  Carry on any business or activity (whether
                      -------
directly or indirectly, as a partner, stockholder, principal, agent, director,
affiliate, employee or consultant) which is competitive with the business
conducted by the Company (as conducted now or during the Term), nor engage in
any other activities that conflict with Officer's obligations to the Company.

               (ii)   Solicit Business.  Solicit or influence or attempt to
                      ----------------
influence any client, customer or other person either directly or indirectly, to
direct his, her or its purchase of the Company's products and/or services to any
person, firm, corporation, institution or other entity in competition with the
business of the Company.

               (iii)  Solicit Personnel.  Solicit or influence or attempt to
                      -----------------
influence any person or entity employed or engaged as a consultant by the
Company to terminate or otherwise cease his, her or its employment or consulting
relationship with the Company or become an employee or consultant of any
competitor of the Company.  This Section 7(a)(iii) is to be read in conjunction
with Section 6 of the Confidentiality Agreement executed by Officer.

          (b)  Breach of Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Provisions.  Officer
               -------------------------------------------------------
acknowledges that the Company's entering into this Agreement and committing to
make any payments required hereunder represents consideration for Officer's
agreement to abide by the restrictions set forth in Section 7(a).

     8.   Repurchase Option.  The Company or its assignees shall have the option
          -----------------
to repurchase all or a portion of the Shares (as defined below) on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Section (the "Repurchase Option") if Officer ceases
to be employed by the Company (as defined below) for Cause.

          (a)  Definition of "Employed by the Company"; "Termination Date".  For
               -----------------------------------------------------------
purposes of this Agreement, Officer will be considered to be "employed by the
Company" if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that Officer is
rendering substantial services to the Company or any parent, subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company.  In case of any dispute as to whether Officer is
employed by the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the
sole discretion to determine whether Officer has ceased to be employed by the
Company or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company and the effective
date on which Officer's employment terminated (the "Termination Date").

                                       4
<PAGE>

          (b)  Shares.  "Shares" shall mean (i) thirty-five percent (35%) of the
               ------
aggregate shares of common stock of the Company ("Company Common Stock") which
Officer is entitled to receive upon the consummation by Seller of all
distributions to Seller's shareholders required by the Purchase Agreement,
without reduction for any indemnification obligations under the Purchase
Agreement (the "Aggregate Potential Officer Distribution") for the first twelve
(12) months from the date of this Agreement, and (ii) twenty-five percent (25%)
of the Aggregate Potential Officer Distribution for the second twelve (12)
months from the date of this Agreement ("Year Two").  In determining the
aggregate shares of Company Common Stock to which Officer is so entitled to
receive, shares to be distributed directly to Officer and those to be deposited
into the Hold-Back Escrow (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) on his behalf
shall both be taken into consideration.  By way of example only, if, out of a
total of 4,500,000 shares of Company Common Stock payable by the Company to
Seller under the Purchase Agreement (of which, a certain percentage is required
to be deposited into the Hold-Back Escrow), 450,000 shares are to be distributed
by Seller to Officer and 450,000 shares are to be deposited into the Hold-Back
Escrow for the benefit of Officer, then the "Shares" would mean 450,000 shares
of Company Common Stock.  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Repurchase
Option shall lapse as to one quarter of the Shares remaining subject to the
Repurchase Option at the beginning of Year Two after the close of each three (3)
fiscal month period during Year Two.  By way of example only, if, at the
beginning of Year Two, Officer has 1,000,000 Shares that remain subject to the
Repurchase Option, such Repurchase Option shall lapse on 250,000 Shares after
the close of each three (3) fiscal month period during Year Two.  The number of
Shares will be proportionately adjusted to reflect any applicable stock
dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of the common
stock of the Company.

          (c)  Exercise of Repurchase Option at Original Price.  If Officer
               -----------------------------------------------
shall cease to be employed by the Company as a result of a Termination for Cause
or a Voluntary Termination and the Termination Date shall occur prior to the
date which is the second year anniversary of the date hereof (the "Second
Anniversary"), then at any time within 90 days after the Termination Date, the
Company may elect to repurchase any or all of the Shares (the "Repurchase
Option") by giving Officer written notice of such election. The Company and/or
its assignee(s) will then have the option to repurchase from Officer (or
Officer's personal representative as the case may be) any or all of the Shares
at a purchase price per share equal to the Purchaser Share Value (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement), as adjusted to reflect any applicable stock dividend,
stock split, reverse stock split or recapitalization of the common stock of the
Company (the "Repurchase Option Price").

          (d)  Payment of the Repurchase Option Price.  The Repurchase Option
               --------------------------------------
Price will be payable, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), by check
or by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness owed by
Officer to the Company (or to such assignee) or by any combination thereof. The
Repurchase Option Price will be paid without interest within ninety (90) days
after the Company gives Officer written notice of the exercise of its Repurchase
Option.

          (e)  Right of Termination Unaffected.  Nothing in this Agreement will
               -------------------------------
be construed to limit or otherwise affect in any manner whatsoever the right or
power of the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company) to
terminate Officer's employment with the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company) at any time for any reason or no reason, with or
without Cause.

                                       5
<PAGE>

          (f)  Escrow.  As security for Officer's faithful performance of this
               ------
Agreement, Officer agrees, immediately upon receipt of the stock certificate(s)
evidencing the Shares, to deliver such certificate(s), together with two (2)
copies of a blank Stock Power and Assignment Separate from Stock Certificate in
the form of Exhibit 1 attached hereto ("Stock Powers"), both executed by Officer
            ---------
and by Officer's spouse, if any (with date and number of Shares left blank), to
the Secretary of the Company or other designee of the Company (the "Escrow
Holder"), who is hereby appointed to hold such certificate(s) and Stock Powers
in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers of
such Shares as are in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Escrow
Holder will act solely for the Company as its agent and not as a fiduciary.
Officer and Company agree that Escrow Holder will not be liable to any party to
this Agreement (or to any other party) for any actions or omissions unless
Escrow Holder is grossly negligent or intentionally fraudulent in carrying out
the duties of Escrow Holder under this Agreement.  Escrow Holder may rely upon
any letter, notice or other document executed with any signature purported to be
genuine and may rely on the advice of counsel and obey any order of any court
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  The Shares
will be released from escrow on the Second Anniversary to the extent the Company
has not previously exercised its Repurchase Option.

     9.   Conflicts.  Officer represents that his performance of all the terms
          ---------
of this Agreement will not breach any other agreement to which Officer is a
party.  Officer has not, and will not during the Term, enter into any oral or
written agreement in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement.
Officer further represents that he is entering into or has entered into an
employment relationship with the Company of his own free will and that he has
not been solicited as an employee in any way by the Company.

     10.  Release.  In consideration for the Company's entering into this
          -------
Agreement, Officer agrees that upon his termination of employment with the
Company, he will execute an agreement in a form acceptable to the Company
pursuant to which Officer will agree to release the Company and its officers,
agents and successors from claims related to or arising from Officer's
employment relationship with the Company that occurred through and including the
date of termination of employment.

     11.  Successors.  Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect
          ----------
and whether by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise)
or to all or substantially all of the Company's business and/or assets will
assume the obligations under this Agreement and agrees expressly to perform the
obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as
the Company would be required to perform such obligations in the absence of a
succession.  The terms of this Agreement and all of Officer's rights hereunder
will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Officer's personal or legal
representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees,
devisees and legatees.

     12.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including any Exhibits hereto,
          ----------------
constitutes the sole agreement of the parties and supersedes all oral
negotiations and prior writings with respect to the subject matter hereof.

     13.  Miscellaneous Provisions.
          ------------------------

          (a)  Amendments and Waivers.  Any term of this Agreement may be
               ----------------------
amended or waived only with the written consent of the parties.

                                       6
<PAGE>

          (b)  Notices.  Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement will
               -------
be in writing and will be deemed sufficient upon receipt, when delivered
personally or by a nationally-recognized delivery service (such as Federal
Express or UPS), or 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail as certified
or registered mail with postage prepaid, if such notice is addressed to the
party to be notified at such party's address as set forth below or as
subsequently modified by written notice.

          (c)  Choice of Law.  The validity, interpretation, construction and
               -------------
performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws.

          (d)  Severability.  If one or more provisions of this Agreement are
               ------------
held to be unenforceable under applicable law, the parties agree to renegotiate
such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a
mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such
provision will be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the
Agreement will be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii)
the balance of the Agreement will be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

          (e)  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
               ------------
each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.

          (f)  Arbitration.  Any dispute or claim arising out of or in
               -----------
connection with this Agreement will be finally settled by binding arbitration in
Los Angeles County, California in accordance with the rules of the American
Arbitration Association by one arbitrator appointed in accordance with said
rules. The arbitrator will apply California law, without reference to rules of
conflicts of law or rules of statutory arbitration, to the resolution of any
dispute. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties
may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for preliminary or interim
equitable relief, or to compel arbitration in accordance with this paragraph,
without breach of this arbitration provision. This Section 13(f) will not apply
to the Confidentiality Agreement.

          (g)  Advice of Counsel.  EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES
               -----------------
THAT, IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH PARTY HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK
THE ADVICE OF INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, AND HAS READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL OF THE
TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE CONSTRUED
AGAINST ANY PARTY BY REASON OF THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION HEREOF.
