indirectly, compete with the Employer by:

               (i)  performing the duties of an officer, manager, owner,

over-the-counter), in or for any business entity engaged in direct competition
with the Employer, or

               (ii) perform activities or duties substantially similar or
related to the functions, activities or duties performed by Employee for the
Employer from time to time for any business entity engaged in direct competition
with the Employer.

     A business entity shall be considered to be "in direct competition" with
the Employer if it is engaged in the design, sale, manufacture, distribution,
servicing or repairing of machinery or equipment used for or in connection with
the distribution of lottery tickets or any other business that Employer engages
in as of the date the Employee terminates employment with the Employer.

     The restrictions in this Section will apply to all functions, activities
and duties performed in a Restricted Territory, or performed for or on behalf of
any business which is located in or does business in a Restricted Territory,
regardless of where Employee actually performs such functions, activities or
duties.  "Restricted Territory" means:

               (a) Any state within the United States, or any other country or
political or geographic subdivision thereof, in which Employer has submitted a
bid to function as a contractor or subcontractor furnishing or maintaining
lottery ticket machines within the twelve months immediately proceeding

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   5
     The parties expressly agree and acknowledge that the nature of Employer's
business is unique, in that Employer's services are furnished on a state-wide,
or region-wide, or in some instances country-wide basis, and that therefore the
restrictions herein are reasonable and necessary of for the protection of
Employer's legitimate business interests.

     (b)  Covenant Related to Customers. Employee will not in any way, directly
or indirectly, except as an employee of the Employer, solicit, divert or take
away, or attempt to solicit, divert to take away, the business of any of the
customers of the Employer which were served or solicited by Employee for the
Employer during the term of his/her employment, or any of the prospective
customers of the Employer that Employee served or solicited for the Employer
within one (1) year prior to the termination of his/her employment, for the
purpose of selling to any such customer or prospective customer any product or
service substantially similar to any product or service that was offered by the
Employer during his employment.

     Employee will not directly or indirectly attempt or seek to cause any of
the foregoing customers or prospective customers of the Employer to refrain
from maintaining or acquiring from or through the Employer any product or
service that was offered by the Employer during his employment and will not
assist any other person to do so.

     (c)  Covenant Related to Other Employee. Employee will not solicit for
employment, directly or through or on behalf of any other party, any persons who
are then employees of the Employer, or induce or attempt to induce the
termination of any such person's employment with the Employer.

     10.  Confidentiality and Nondisclosure. Employee acknowledges and agrees
that, during the term of this Agreement, he will have access to trade secrets
and other confidential information unique to Employer's business and that the
disclosure or unauthorized use of such trade secrets or confidential information
by Employee will injure Employer's business. Therefore, Employee agrees that he
will not, at any time during or after the term of this Agreement, use, reveal or
divulge any trade secrets or any other confidential information which while not
trade secrets or information unique to Employer's business, is highly
confidential and constitutes a valuable asset of Employer by reason of the
material investment of Employer's time and money in the production of such
information. Employee agrees that during the term of this Agreement and for a
period of three (3) years therefore, he will not use, reveal or divulge any
general confidential and customer information.

     13.  Notice, Monetary Damages and Equitable Relief.

          (a)  The Employee acknowledges that the services to be rendered by him
are of special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and intellectual character, which
gives them a peculiar value and the loss of which cannot reasonably or
adequately be compensated in damages in an action at law; and that a breach by
him of any of the provisions contained in this Agreement will cause the Employer
irreparable injury and damage. The Employee further acknowledges that he
possesses unique skills, knowledge and ability and that any material breach of
the provisions of this Agreement would be extremely detrimental to the Employer.
By reason thereof, the Employee agrees that the Employer shall be entitled, in
addition to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement or otherwise, to
injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or curtail any breach of this
Agreement by him.

          (b)  The Employer and the Employee agree that in the event of a breach
of the provisions of this Agreement by the Employee, that Employer shall give
the Employee written notice of such breach and may terminate the Agreement
pursuant to Section 5 hereof. In the event of a breach by affiliates shall be
entitled to recover full monetary damages for such breach and shall have a right
of set off against any sums or property owing to Employee, under this or any
other agreement.

     14.  Successors Bound: Assignability. The Agreement shall be binding upon
the Employer and the Employee, their respective heirs, executors, administrators
or successors in interest, including without limitation,

any corporation into which the Employer may be merged or by which it may be
acquired.  The Agreement is nonassignable except that the Employer's rights,
duties and obligations under this Agreement may be assigned to its acquiror in
the event the Employer is merged, acquired or sells substantially all of its
assets.

     15.  Severability.  In the event that any one or more of the provisions of
this Agreement or any word, phrase, clause, sentence or other portion thereof
shall be deemed to be illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision or
portion thereof shall be modified or deleted in such a manner so as to make this
Agreement as modified legal and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted
under applicable law.

     16.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement
between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, and there
are not agreements, understandings, specific restrictions, warranties or
representations relating to said subject matter between the parties other than
those set forth herein or herein provided for.  Neither this Agreement nor any
provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but
only by an agreement in waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

entirety any and all other employment or compensation agreements entered into
