                       CONFIDENTIAL RESIGNATION AGREEMENT

         This Confidential Resignation Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into
by and between Juan C. G. de Ledebur,("de Ledebur") and FATS, Inc. ("FATS"), de
Ledebur's employer, on this 27th day of March, 2000.

         WHEREAS, de Ledebur and FATS desire to enter into an agreement that
sets forth the terms and conditions of de Ledebur's resignation of employment.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements
contained herein, the adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
de Ledebur and FATS agree as follows:

1.       de Ledebur's full-time duties as Vice President, International
Marketing and Sales for FATS ended on March 27, 2000 (the "Active Severance
Date").

2.       de Ledebur shall continue to be employed by FATS through September 30,
2000 or until de Ledebur commences full-time employment with another employer,
whichever is earlier (the "Final Severance Date"). The "Final Severance Date"
shall be the "Termination of Employment Date" for purposes of Stock Option
Agreements. During the period between the Active Severance Date and the Final
Severance Date, de Ledebur agrees that he will make himself available to answer
questions and to provide consultation to FATS on matters in which he was
involved prior to the Active Severance Date. FATS agrees that it will schedule
such communications with de Ledebur at such times and under such circumstances
that will not unreasonably interfere with de Ledebur's future employment or his
efforts to obtain employment with another employer. de Ledebur's employment with
FATS will cease for all purposes on the Final Severance Date.

3.       Effective as of the Active Severance Date, de Ledebur shall resign from
his position as an officer of FATS and all related entities, including Firearms
Training Systems, Inc.

4.       FATS will pay de Ledebur his current bi-weekly salary of $5,192.31 (to
be reduced by any part-time earnings received by de Ledebur during the period
between the Active Severance Date and the Final Severance Date), less
withholding for income and employment taxes to the extent required by law,
through the Final Severance Date. Such payments will be made to de Ledebur on
FATS' regularly scheduled pay dates.

6.       de Ledebur shall be entitled to continue to participate in FATS'
established employee benefit plans and programs through the Final Severance Date
on the same terms and conditions as comparable executive-level FATS employees.
Following the Final Severance Date, de Ledebur shall have the right to continue
to participate in the FATS group health plan, at his own expense, in accordance
with, and to the extent provided by, part 6 of Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The Company may
extend the employee benefit plans and programs participation for as many as six
(6) months following the Final Severance Date on request of de Ledebur. At the
conclusion of de Ledebur's participation in the Company's Employee Benefit Plan
and Programs, de Ledebur shall be eligible at his own expense for full COBRA
benefits.

vacation policy through his Active Severance Date. He will not earn any further
vacation benefits during the period between his Active Severance Date and the
Final Severance Date. de Ledebur shall be paid for any earned but unused
vacation benefits that he may have as of the Active Severance Date upon
execution of this agreement.

8.       a.       de Ledebur, on his own behalf and on behalf of anyone claiming
through him, hereby agrees and promises not to sue, file an administrative
charge (other than any claim for unemployment benefits that can be claimed for
any period following the Final Severance Date in the event de Ledebur is unable
to secure future employment), or otherwise initiate any legal proceeding
against, and further agrees to release and discharge FATS and its parents,
owners, divisions, subsidiaries, partnerships, affiliates and/or other related
entities, including the entities described in the Prospectus for Firearms

has, has ever had, or may ever have, whether currently known or unknown, against
any of the Released Parties arising from any act or omission of any nature or

13.      de Ledebur and FATS mutually agree that neither will disclose the
existence or terms of this Agreement to any third parties with the exception of
his accountants, attorneys, spouse, future employers, and FATS employees with a
need to know, each of whom shall be bound by this confidentiality provision, or
as may be required to comply with legal process. de Ledebur understands and
agrees that this promise of confidentiality is a material inducement to FATS to
enter into this Agreement.

admission by FATS, any of the other Released Parties, or de Ledebur that it has
violated any law, interfered with any right, breached any obligation, or
otherwise engaged in any improper or illegal conduct with respect to FATS, de
Ledebur or otherwise, and all Parties expressly deny any such illegal or
wrongful conduct.

that de Ledebur has breached or failed to comply with any of his obligations
under this Agreement or under the Non-Competition Agreement, as amended herein,
at any time during the one-year period commencing on the Final Severance Date
(the "Compliance Period"), then FATS, in addition to any other remedies that it
may have either in law or in equity, may declare that de Ledebur is not in
compliance with this Agreement provided that nothing contained herein shall
require de Ledebur to return to FATS any salary, bonus or benefits that have
accrued hereunder prior to the Final Severance Date. However, de Ledebur's
duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Non-Compete Agreement, as
amended herein, shall continue in full force and effect. In the event of a
dispute, then FATS shall place payments in escrow pursuant to arbitration or
proceedings outlined in Paragraph 18.

16.      For all purposes, de Ledebur's termination of employment (Final
Severance Data) hereunder shall be deemed to be a termination by the Company
other than for "cause", provided that the terms and conditions of this Agreement
are complied with.

parties hereto with regard to the matters described herein. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of FATS and its successors and assignees, and shall be
binding upon de Ledebur and de Ledebur's heirs, administrators, executors, and
personal representatives.
