conditions described in this Agreement.  The Employee shall be the Chief Technology
Officer of the Company, with the responsibility for the day-to-day management
of the Company's technical operations.  Subject to (a) the general supervision
of the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), and (b) the Employee's duty to report

time-to-time, Employee shall have all of the authority to perform his
employment duties for the Company.



2.               



3.                 
Time

to devote his
full working time and attention to the management of the Company's business
affairs, the implementation of its strategic plan, as determined by the CEO,
and the fulfillment of his duties and responsibilities as Chief Technology Officer. 
Expenditure of a reasonable amount of time for personal matters and business
and charitable activities shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement,
provided that those activities do not materially interfere with the services
required to be rendered to the Company under this Agreement.




4.                 
The
Company's Authority.

-1-








CloudCommerce, and Warp 9, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Merger Agreement").  Upon the expiration of the term of those obligations, and
if Employee is then employed by the Company, then thereafter and throughout the
remaining term of this Agreement, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly,
either as an employee, employer,  consultant, agent, principal, partner,
stockholder (in a private company), corporate officer, director, or in any
other individual or representative capacity, engage or participate in any
business that is in direct competition with the business of the Company or its
affiliates.  Furthermore, any commissions, referral fees or other compensation
paid to Employee by other payors during the term of this Agreement will be the
property of the Company, and therefore, all such compensation will promptly be
remitted by Employee to the Company.




6.                 
Term of
Agreement. 
Subject to earlier termination as provided herein, the term of this Agreement
shall be for two (2) years.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and
Employee agree that Employee's employment hereunder may be terminated by the
Employee resigning with "Good Reason" or by the Company's declaration of
termination with "Cause" at any time, subject to the terms of this Section 5
and Section 6.  Such termination shall be effective upon delivery of
written notice from the acting party to the other of its election to terminate
employment pursuant to this Section 5.  "Cause" when used in connection
with the termination of employment with the Company, shall mean the termination
of the Employee's employment by the Company by reason of (i) Employee's
material breach of any of this Agreement which breach, if curable, is not cured
within thirty (30) days of written notice to Employee of such breach; (ii) the
conviction of, or the entering of a guilty plea or no contest plea by, the
Employee for a crime involving moral turpitude by a court of competent
jurisdiction; (iii) the commission by the Employee of an act of fraud upon the
Company or any of its affiliates; (iv) the misappropriation of any funds or
property of the Company or any of its affiliates by the Employee; (v) the
failure by the Employee to perform material duties reasonably assigned to him
or otherwise assigned to and accepted by Employee, or to comply with any
written Company policy after reasonable written notice and opportunity to cure
such performance; (vi) the engagement by the Employee in any direct, material
conflict of interest with the Company without compliance with the Company's
conflict of interest policy, if any, then in effect;  or (vii) the engagement
in any activity which would constitute a material violation of the provisions
of the Company's insider trading policy, if any, then in effect.  Cause shall
not be present unless (1) the Company shall have given Employee written notice
specifying in reasonable detail the event or circumstances constituting Cause,
and (2) Employee fails to cure such event or circumstances within forty-five
(45) days from the date of such notice from the Company. "Good Reason" when
used in connection with the resignation of employment from the Company by
Employee, shall mean the resignation from the Company by Employee by reason of:
(i) any deliberate breach by the Company with any of the material provisions of
this Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent failure
which is remedied by Company promptly after Company's receipt of written notice
thereof from Employee; (ii) a material diminution in Executive's authorities,
duties or responsibilities normally associated with Employee's position or 
Employee is assigned duties and responsibilities that are inconsistent, in a
material respect, with the scope of duties and responsibilities associated with
Employee's status as a senior executive officer; (iii) the Company's failure to
nominate the Employee for election to the Board of Directors and to use its best
efforts to have him elected and re-elected, as applicable or (iii) a material
breach by the Company of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or By-laws if
such breach would materially prejudice Employee.  Good Reason shall not be
present unless (1) Employee shall have given the 



-2-






Company written
notice specifying in reasonable detail the event or circumstances constituting
Good Reason, and (2) the Company fails to cure such event or circumstances
within forty-five (45) days from the date of such notice from Employee.  




7.                 
Severance
Benefits.                          


6.1  Continuation
of Salary and Benefits.  In the event that the Employee's employment is
terminated by the Employee for Good Reason prior to the end of the initial
term, the Company shall, subject to the terms of Sections 6.2 and 6.3 below,
and only if and as long as Employee is not in breach of his obligations under
this Agreement, pay compensation to Employee in the manner set forth below. If
the Employee's employment is terminated by the Employee for Good Reason during
the term of this Agreement, then the Company shall continue to pay to Employee
his current base salary provided for under this Agreement in periodic payments
in accordance with its customary payroll practices for a period of until the second
(2nd) anniversary date of this Agreement (the "Severance Payment
Period"). If the Employee's employment is terminated by the Employee for Good
Reason, the Company shall also continue to provide benefits in the kind and
amounts provided to its employees generally throughout the Severance Payment
Period, including continuation of any Company-paid benefits provided pursuant
hereto, for the Employee and, if applicable, the Employee's spouse and minor
children, provided such benefits will be subject to immediate termination to
the extent Employee receives benefits under another similar benefit plan. 
Employee agrees that the above payments shall be a full settlement of the
Company's obligations to Employee hereunder in the event of a termination for
Good Reason.




  6.2       Disability;
Death.       If at any time during the term of this Agreement, Employee
is unable, due to physical or mental disability, to perform effectively his
duties hereunder, the Company shall continue payment of compensation as
provided in Section 9.1 during the first six (6) months of such
disability to the extent not covered by the Company's disability insurance
policies.  Upon the expiration of such six-month period, the Company, at its
sole option, may continue payment of Employee's salary for such additional
periods as the Company elects, or may terminate this Agreement without any
further obligations hereunder.  If Employee should die during the term of this
Agreement, Employee's employment and the Company's obligations hereunder shall
terminate as of the end of the month in which Employee's death occurs and there
will be no salary and benefit continuation period.  Employee shall be deemed to
have incurred a disability if Employee suffers a physical or mental condition
which (i) satisfies the definition of "total disability" in the Company's
disability insurance policies, or (ii) if no such policy or plan is then
covering Employee, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors,
prevents Employee from engaging in any substantial gainful employment with the
Company for a period of more than six (6) months.


6.3       Standstill
Agreement; Lock-up Letters.      So long as
Employee is employed by the Company or receives severance compensation as
provided in Section 6.1 above, Employee agrees that he will sign any reasonable
securities lock-up letters, standstill agreements, or other similar
documentation required by an underwriter in connection with a public offering of
securities by the Company or its parent corporation or take other actions
reasonably related thereto as requested by the Board of Directors under similar
terms and conditions as for other management employees of the Company generally. 
Failure to take any such action shall be a "Cause" for termination and shall
cause Employee to forfeit any further rights to compensation or other payments
hereunder.  In addition, 


-3-






Employee agrees that in such event the Company can
seek and obtain specific performance of such covenant, including any injunction
requiring execution thereof, and the Employee hereby appoints the then current
president of the Company to sign any such documents on his behalf so long as
such documents are prepared on the same basis as for other management
shareholders generally.


 6.4       Relocation
or Material Changes in Duties.  If Employee's employment is terminated
because of Employee' refusal to relocate to another office of the Company that
is more than twenty (20) statute miles from the Employee's then current office,
or to accept a material change in duties, such termination shall be deemed a
termination with Cause.  




8.

7.1.      Confidential
Information.  As used herein the term "Confidential Information" shall

no reason at all.
