     give immediate written notice thereof to Client, whereupon Client may, at
     its sole option, immediately terminate this Contract by giving written
     notice of termination to LHSI and make other arrangements for distribution
     of its Products, or permit LHSI to provide other warehousing facilities
     reasonably acceptable to Client for the duration of the Force Majeure.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Client elects to permit
     LHSI to provide a substitute facility and the Force Majeure condition
     continues for more than sixty (60) days, Client may then, at its sole
     option, terminate this Contract by giving written notice of such
     termination to LHSI. In the event of termination during a Force Majeure
     condition, LHSI shall use its best efforts to remove, or enable Client to

     acquired by LHSI while providing services or while the business
     relationship between LHSI and Client exists under this Contract.

6.2  Client shall not disclose, communicate or divulge to, or use for direct or
     indirect benefit of any person, corporation, or other entity, other than

     bond.

6.4  Client's duty of confidentiality with regard to LHSI Information and LHSI's
     duty of confidentiality with regard to Client Information shall not extend
     to:

     (a)  any information that, at the time of disclosure, is in, or after
          disclosure becomes a part of the public domain without breach of this
          Contract (but only after it becomes a part of the public domain);

     (b)  any information that, prior to disclosure by the disclosing party, was
          already in the lawful possession of the recipient party, as evidenced
          by written records kept by the recipient part in the ordinary course
          of its business, or as evidenced by proof of actual prior use by the
          recipient party;

     (c)  any information that, subsequent to disclosure, is obtained by the
          recipient party from a third party 1) who is lawfully in possession of
          that Information, 2) who is not in violation of any contractual, legal
          or fiduciary obligation to the disclosing party with respect to that
          Information; and 3) who does not prohibit the recipient party from
          disclosing the Information to others; or

                                      -10-

     (d)  any information disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or order of
          any court or government agency provided the disclosing party gives the

          other appropriate remedy. In the event such protective order or other
          remedy is not obtained, the disclosing party shall furnish only that
          portion of the information that it is legally required and shall use
          its best efforts to assure confidential treatment of any such
          information disclosed.


6.5  Nonsolicitation of Employees. Client covenants that it shall not, for a

     hereunder be entitled to the following relief:

          Amount"), *** without regard to whether such solicitation results in
          such employee or contractor terminating its relationship with the
          other party. Client acknowledges that the Agreed Damage Amount is not
          a penalty, but rather a reasonable estimate of the actual damages that
          the party would suffer in the event of any violation of Section 6.5
          hereof.

     (b)  An injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction restraining
          Client from committing any such violation and each party hereby
