     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is made as of the 1st day of July 2002, (the
"agreement"), superceding and replacing that certain Employment Agreement made
the 1st day of September, 1999, (the "prior agreement") by and between Prologic
Management Systems, Inc., an Arizona corporation (the "Company"), and John W.
Olynick, an individual (the "Executive").

     R E C I T A L S:

     WHEREAS, the Company desires that the Executive be employed by the Company
in order to ensure that the services of Executive shall be available to the
Company on a long term basis; and

     WHEREAS, Executive desires to be employed by the Company on the following
terms and conditions;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

     A G R E E M E N T:

     1. The Employment Period.

     Initial Period. The "Employment Period," shall be July 1, 2002 to June 30,
2005 ("Original Employment Period"), unless terminated or renewed pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement.

     2. Employment and Duties.

     (a) Employment. The Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby
accepts employment with the Company for the Employment Period as President of
the Company and as President of Basis, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company (or such other executive management positions as the Board of Directors
may elect from time to time ), reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer
of the Company. Executive shall perform such duties in said position as may be
reasonably specified from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer or by the
Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") or their designated representatives`
for the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates. It is understood that
Executive will use his best efforts to perform his duties in the manner directed
by the Management and in compliance with all federal, state and local laws,
ordinances and regulations.

     (b) Time Devoted to Duties. Executive shall devote substantially all of his
non-personal time and efforts to the business of the Company, its subsidiaries
and affiliates, the amount of such time to be sufficient to permit him to
diligently and faithfully to serve and endeavor to further the Company's
interests to the best of his ability. Executive shall not, during the Employment
Period, (i) accept any other employment, or (ii) engage, directly or indirectly,
in any other business activity (whether or not pursued for pecuniary gain) that
is or may be competitive with, or that might place him in a competing position
to that of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, provided, however,
that an investment of less than one percent (1%) in a public company which
competes with the Company but with which Executive has no other involvement will
not violate the terms hereof. The Executive hereby represents that his
employment hereunder and compliance by him of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement will not conflict with or result in the breach of any agreement by
which he may be bound.

     (c) Relocation. The parties acknowledge that Executive resides in
Connecticut and will be initially based in Connecticut working from his office
located in his residence. However, if the Company desires to relocate Executive
to an alternate site, then such relocation will be determined by mutual
agreement of Executive and the Company. In the event that the parties cannot
reach mutual agreement as to the permanent location/residence, the Executive
and, or the Company may terminate this agreement pursuant to section 4 (h).

         adjusted for acquisitions or dispositions. Each annual bonus shall be
         paid to executive within 90 days after the end of the fiscal year.

(a) (i), (ii) and (iii) earned and accrued by him prior to the date of
termination. Upon such payment, the Company's obligations to the Executive shall
terminate. The Executive shall not be entitled to any other compensation or
other severance payment. Furthermore, to the extent permitted by applicable laws
and the Plan, all stock options granted to Executive in connection with the
prior agreement, but not yet exercisable on a pro rata basis at the date of
termination, shall become null and void.

     (c) Termination of Employment by the Company or by Executive upon Lack of
Agreement on Relocation. In the event of termination prior to the completion of

Executive for a period ("Transition Period") not to exceed six months in such
capacity as the Company determines appropriate. However, during the Transition
Period, the Executive will be allowed up to three days per calendar month in
which to secure another employment. Subject to the continuing provisions of
Section 4, employment during the Transition Period will terminate no earlier

Period shall be as set forth in Section 3 with the specific exclusion of
Sections 3 (a) (ii), 3 (b), 3 (d) and 3 (e) as earned and accrued by him through
the final date of actual employment under this section. Upon such payment, the

expressly acknowledges that the subject matter, territorial and time
restrictions contained in this paragraph are reasonable and are properly
required for the adequate protection of the Company's property interests.

                                                                              14

     (c) No Waiver. No waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall be
considered valid unless in writing and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver
of any subsequent breach or default of the same or similar nature. The failure
of any party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on
any occasion shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of the right to
insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement on
that or any other occasion.

     (d) Enforcement; Severability. In the event that any term or provision of
this Agreement shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be overly
broad in scope, duration or area of applicability, the court considering the
same shall have the power and is hereby authorized and directed to modify such
term or provision to limit such scope, duration or area, or all of them, so that
such term or provision is no longer overly broad and to enforce the same as so
limited. Subject to the foregoing sentence, in the event that any provision of
this Agreement shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such
invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not
affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement.

independent and separable covenants which shall survive the termination of the
Employment Period.
