Employee agrees that this position shall be her full-time employment; she shall
comply with the covenants of this Agreement; she shall devote her best efforts
and all of her business time, attention and skills to the successful
continuation of the business of the Company.

         2. TERM. The employment of Employee shall commence on the Effective
Date and shall continue through the third anniversary thereof and for
consecutive two-year periods thereafter; provided, that either party may deliver
notice of non-renewal at least 90 days prior to the third anniversary date or
the two-year incremental anniversary date, as the case may be, and the Agreement
shall terminate upon such upcoming anniversary date (the "Term").

         3. COMPENSATION. In consideration of the services to be rendered by
Employee to the Company hereunder, the Company hereby agrees to pay or otherwise
provide Employee the following compensation and benefits, it being understood
that the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom all taxes which may be
required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under any provision of applicable
law (including but not limited to Social Security payments, income tax
withholding and other required deductions now in effect or which may become
effective by law any time during the Term):

                  (a) SALARY. Employee shall receive an annual salary of Four
Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($425,000) with such increases thereto as

fringe benefit program, which the Company may adopt and implement for the
benefit of the Company's employees.

                  (d) EXPENSES. Employee shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by Employee in connection
with the fulfillment of Employee's duties hereunder; provided, however, that
Employee has complied with all policies and procedures relating to the

the Company.

                  (e) PAID TIME OFF. During the Term of employment, Employee
shall be permitted to take time off with such frequency and of such duration as
are consistent with the executive paid time off policies of the Company in
effect on the date of this Agreement so long as the absence of Employee does not
interfere in any material respect with the performance by Employee of Employee's
duties hereunder.

         4.       TERMINATION.

                  (a) DEATH OR DISABILITY. This Agreement shall terminate
automatically upon the Employee's death. If the Company determines in good faith
that the Disability of the Employee has occurred (pursuant to the definition of
"Disability" set forth below), it may give to the Employee written notice of its
intention to terminate the Employee's employment. In such event, the Employee's
employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 90th day after
receipt of such notice by the Employee (the "Disability Effective Date"),
provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt, the Employee could not
have (as determined by the process set forth below) and shall not have returned
to the performance of the essential functions of the Employee's position with or
without reasonable accommodations (as defined in Title I of the American's with
Disabilities Act) ("Reasonable Accommodations"). For purposes of this Agreement,
"Disability" means Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental illness,
which is determined by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and
acceptable to the Employee or the Employee's legal representative (such
agreement as to acceptability not to be withheld unreasonably), to prevent
Employee's substantial and continuous performance of the essential functions of
her position with or without Reasonable Accommodations for a period of more than
12 weeks after its commencement or for an aggregate of sixteen weeks in any
12-month period.

                  (b) CAUSE. The Company may terminate the Employee's employment
for "Cause." For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" means:

                           (i) a significant act or acts of personal dishonesty
         taken by the Employee at the expense of the Company, or

                           (ii) a material violation by the Employee of the
         Employee's obligations under this Agreement which Employee fails to
         cure within a reasonable period of time after receiving notice thereof,
         or


                                       2
<PAGE>

                           (iii) the indictment of the Employee of a felony, or

                           (iv) failure of the employee to substantially perform
         her duties and responsibilities which Employee fails to cure within a
         reasonable period of time after receiving notice thereof; or

                           (v) breach of Employee's representation set forth in
         Section 11 of this Agreement.

                  (c) WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company may, at its option, terminate
Employee's employment without Cause at any time upon written notice to Employee.

                  (d) BY EMPLOYEE FOR GOOD REASON. During the Term of
Employment, the Employee's employment hereunder may be terminated by the
Employee for Good Reason upon thirty (30) days prior written notice by Employee
to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean,
without the Employee's consent, any of the following conditions that remain
uncured for a reasonable period of time after notice to the Company by Employee:

                           (i) the assignment to the Employee of any duties
         inconsistent in any material respect with the Employee's position,
         authority, duties or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 1 of
         this Agreement, excluding for this Section 4(d) any isolated and
         inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the
         Company within ten (10) days after receipt of a notice thereof given by
         the Employee;

                           (ii) a material diminution in the Employee's
         reporting relationship such that she would not report directly to the
         Company's Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board;

                           (iii) any failure by the Company to comply with any
         of the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement other than an isolated
         and inadvertent failure not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by
         the Company within ten (10) days after receipt of notice thereof given
         by the Employee; or

                           (iv) any purported termination by the Company of the
         Employee's employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by this
         Agreement.

                  (e) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination by the Company or
Employee shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the Employee hereto
given in accordance with Section 12 of this Agreement. For purposes of this
Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" means a written notice which


                                       3
<PAGE>

                           (i) indicates the specific termination provision in
         this Agreement relied upon,

                           (ii) sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and
         circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the
         Employee's employment under the provision so indicated, and

                           (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below)
         is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the
         termination date.

         The failure by the Employee or Company to set forth in the Notice of
         Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of
         the basis for termination shall not waive any right of such party
         hereunder or preclude such party from asserting such fact or
         circumstance in enforcing his or its rights hereunder.

                  (f) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" means the date
of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein, as
the case may be; provided, however, that

                           (i) if the Employee's employment is terminated by the
         Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination
         shall be the date on which the Company notifies the Employee of such
         termination, and

                           (ii) if the Employee's employment is terminated by
         reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the
         date of death of the Employee or the Disability Effective Date, as the
         case may be.

         5.       OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY UPON TERMINATION.

                  (a) DEATH. If the Employee's employment is terminated by
reason of the Employee's death, this Agreement shall terminate without further
obligations to the Employee's legal representatives under this Agreement, other
than those obligations accrued or earned and vested (if applicable) by the
Employee as of the Date of Termination, including, for this purpose the
obligation to pay the Employee

                           (i) the Base Salary through the Date of Termination
         at the rate in effect on the Date of Termination (the "Base Salary"),

                           (ii) the amount equal to the target bonus for the
         fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs multiplied by the
         fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of months of
         Employee's employment during such fiscal year and the denominator of
         which will be 12, and

                           (iii) any compensation previously deferred by the
         Employee (together with accrued interest, if any, thereon) and not yet
         paid by the Company and any accrued


                                       4
<PAGE>
         vacation pay not yet paid by the Company (such amounts specified in
         clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are hereinafter referred to as "Accrued
         Obligations").

                  All such Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Employee's
estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of
the Date of Termination.

                  (b) DISABILITY. If the Employee's employment is terminated by
reason of the Employee's Disability, this Agreement shall terminate without
further obligations to the Employee, other than those obligations accrued or
earned and vested (if applicable) by the Employee as of the Date of Termination,
including for this purpose, all Accrued Obligations. All such Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Employee in a lump sum in cash within 30 days
of the Date of Termination. Employee shall be entitled after the Disability
Effective Date to receive disability benefits provided by the Company to
disabled employees or their families in accordance with such plans, programs,
practices and policies relating to disability, if any, in effect on the
Disability Effective Date.

                  (c) CAUSE. If the Employee's employment shall be terminated
for Cause, the Company's obligations to the Employee shall terminate other than
the obligation to pay to the Employee the portion of Base Salary earned and the
balance of paid time off earned by Employee through the Date of Termination plus
the amount of any compensation previously deferred by the Employee, if any,
consistent with Company policy.

                  (d) GOOD REASON; OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE, DISABILITY OR DEATH.

                           (i) If the Company shall terminate the Employee's
                  employment (other than for Cause or Disability and except if
                  the Employee's employment is terminated as a result of her
                  death) or if, during the Term, the Employee shall terminate
                  her employment for Good Reason, the Company shall continue in
                  accordance with the Company's normal payroll procedures to pay
                  Employee: (A) Base Salary for a period of twelve (12) months
                  following the Date of Termination and (B) an amount equal to
                  the target bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of
                  Termination occurs ("Target Bonus").

                           (ii) If the Company shall consummate a Change of
                  Control transaction (as defined below) which results in the
                  termination of Employee's employment with the Company within
                  one-year prior to or one-year following the consummation of
                  the Change of Control transaction, the Company shall continue
                  in accordance with the Company's normal payroll procedures to
                  pay Employee: (A) Base Salary for a period of two years
                  following the Date of Termination and (B) in each such year,
                  an amount equal to the Target Bonus.

                           (iii) Subject to any limitations imposed by law, the
                  terms of the Company's plans, programs and policies, or the
                  terms of any option agreements, during the one-year or
                  two-year period following termination (as defined in the
                  preceding clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 5(d)), the
                  Company shall continue


                                       5
<PAGE>
                  benefits for Employee and her family at least equal to those
                  which would have been provided in accordance with Section 3(c)
                  of this Agreement if the Employee's employment had not been
                  terminated.

                           (iv) "CHANGE OF CONTROL" shall mean (A) a sale of a
                  majority of the Common Stock of the Company, (B) a sale of
                  substantially all of the assets of the Company, (C) a merger
                  in which the Company is not to be the surviving corporation;
                  provided, however, that any transaction between the Company
                  and any affiliate of the Company shall not be deemed to
                  constitute a Change of Control under this Section 5(d), or (D)
                  individuals who constitute the Board of Directors of the
                  Company on any day (the "INCUMBENT BOARD") cease for any
                  reason other than their deaths or the expiration of the Class
                  B-1 and Class B-2 board seats (as defined in the Company's
                  Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) to
                  constitute at least a majority of the Incumbent Board on the
                  following day (which day shall be the day on which a "change
                  of control" shall be deemed to have occurred), provided that
                  any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date of
                  this Agreement whose election or nomination for election was
                  approved by a vote of not less than two-thirds of the
                  Incumbent Board (excluding the Class B-1 and Class B-2
                  Directors) shall be considered, for purposes of this section,
                  as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board.

                           (v) In the event that the benefits provided for in
                  this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Employee constitute
                  "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the
                  Internal Revenue Code ("the Code") and will be subject to the
                  excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, the Employee
                  shall receive a payment from the Company sufficient to pay
                  such excise tax, plus an additional payment from the Company
                  sufficient to pay the excise tax and federal and state income
                  and employment taxes arising from the payments made by the
                  Company to Employee pursuant to this sentence. Unless the
                  Company and the Employee otherwise agree in writing, the
                  determination of Employee's excise tax liability and the
                  amount required to be paid under this Section 5(d)(v) shall be
                  made in writing by the independent auditors who are primarily
                  used by the Company immediately prior to the Change of Control
                  (the "Accountants"). For purposed of making the calculations
                  required by this Section 5(d)(v), the Accountants may make
                  reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning
                  applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith
                  interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G
                  and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Employee shall
                  furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as
                  the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a
                  determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all
                  costs the Accountants reasonably may incur in connection with
                  any calculations contemplated by this Section 5(d)(v).

                  (e) STOCK OPTIONS. Except as otherwise provided herein,
Employee shall have ninety (90) days from the Date of Termination to exercise
any vested but unexercised options previously granted to Employee to purchase
shares of the Common Stock of the Company. Any


                                       6
<PAGE>

such exercise will be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the
applicable stock option plan and stock option agreement.

         6. CONFIDENTIALITY. Employee acknowledges that, during the course of
Employee's performance of services for the Company, Employee will acquire
knowledge with respect to the business operations, including, by way of
illustration, the Companies' existing and contemplated services, products, trade
secrets, ideas, know how, research and development, formulas, models,
compilations, processes, computer code generated or developed, software or
programs and related documentation, business and financial methods or practices,
plans, pricing, operating margins, marketing, merchandising and selling
techniques and information, customer lists, details of customer agreements,
sources of supply, employee compensation and benefit plans, patient records and
data, and other confidential information relating to the Companies' policy,
operating strategy, expansion strategy or business strategy (all of such
information herein referred to as the "Confidential Information"); provided,
that the term Confidential Information shall not include information which is
generally known to the public or the industry other than as a result of
Employee's breach. Employee shall not use, in any way, or disclose any of the
Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, either during the term of
Employee's employment or at anytime thereafter, except as required in the course
of Employee's employment. Employee acknowledges that all computer code,
programs, files, records, documents, information, data and similar items and
documentation relating to the business of the Companies (including all copies
thereof), whether prepared by Employee or otherwise, are the exclusive property
of the Companies and, upon termination of Employee's employment with the Company
(for whatever reason), Employee shall not take, but shall leave with the
Company, all such computer code, programs, files, records, documents,
information, data and similar items and documentation relating to the business
of the Companies (including all copies thereof). The obligations of this Section
6 are continuous and shall survive the termination of Employee's employment with
the Company.

         7. RESTRICTIONS ON COMPETITIVE EMPLOYMENT. During the term of
Employee's employment and for the twelve-month period following termination of
Employee's employment, or such longer period as the Company shall make payments
to Employee under Section 5(d) of this Agreement (the "RESTRICTED PERIOD"),
Employee will not, become engaged in, render services to, permit Employee's name
to be used in connection with, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by,
participate in, consult with, or be connected in any manner, whether as an
officer, director, employee, agent, consultant, stockholder (other than as the
holder of less than 2% of the aggregate outstanding shares of a class of equity
securities publicly traded on a national securities exchange or quotation
system) or other capacity with the ownership, management, operation or control
of, any business or enterprise substantially engaged or about to become engaged
substantially in the Business of the Companies. The Business of the Companies
includes, but is not limited to, all those products and services that are
presently or hereafter marketed by the Companies that are significant lines of
business for the Companies, or that are in the development stage at the time of
termination of Employee's employment and are actually marketed by the Companies
and/or their affiliates thereafter, as well as, the following businesses: (i)
the pharmacy benefit management business; (ii) formulary management and rebate
administration services; (iii) the distribution of specialty pharmaceuticals;
(iv) disease state


                                       7
<PAGE>
management services; (v) the prescription discount card business; (vi) medical
or prescription claim informatics business; and (vii) services to or on behalf
of any pharmaceutical or biotech manufacturer that relate to the foregoing
clauses (i) through (vi). These restrictions do not preclude Employee from
seeking employment in the health care industry outside the narrow lines
described above. In the event this Agreement expires and is neither renewed nor
replaced, and Employee's employment terminates when no employment agreement is
in effect, then Employee's obligations under this Section 7 shall continue, at
the Company's option, for up to one year provided that the Company shall
continue to cause Employee to receive the amounts specified in Section 5(d) of
this Agreement.

         8. NONINTERFERENCE. Employee agrees that during the term of Employee's
employment and for the twelve month period following the termination of
Employee's employment by the Company, or such longer period as the Company shall
make payments to Employee under Section 5(d) of this Agreement, Employee shall
not, directly or indirectly, whether as principal, agent, officer, employee,
investor, consultant, stockholder, or otherwise, alone or in association with
any other person:

                  (a) Induce or attempt to influence, directly or indirectly,
any employee of the Companies to terminate his employment with the Companies,

                  (b) Disparage the good name or reputation of the Companies or
business of the Companies or engage in any conduct that brings the Companies or
the Companies' business into public ridicule or disrepute; or

                  (c) Solicit, induce or encourage any customer, prospective
customer, consultant, independent contractor or supplier of the Companies for
the purpose of offering products or services that, directly or indirectly,
compete or interfere with the Business of the Companies. For purposes of this
section, "prospective customer" shall mean any party who has had contact with
the Companies within the six-month period immediately preceding termination of
employment hereunder.

         9. INVENTIONS AND PATENTS. Employee agrees that all inventions, ideas,
innovations, improvements or discoveries relating to the Business of the
Companies or the Companies' method of conducting business (including new
contributions, improvements, ideas and discoveries, whether patentable or
