alternative plan) on a basis not materially less favorable, both

thousand dollars ($103,000.00)
(as initially established and as increased as set forth below,
the "Base Salary"). The Base Salary shall be paid to Employee in
equal semi-monthly installments in arrears on the seventh (7th)
and twenty-second (22nd) day of each month, commencing as of the
first semi-monthly pay period following the effective date of

(22nd) day of any month not be a business day, Employee's semi-
monthly installment of the Base Salary otherwise due on such date
shall


Page 4 - EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
be paid to Employee on the business day closest to the date such
semimonthly installment is due (i.e., if the seventh (7th) day of
the month falls on a Saturday, the semi- monthly installment
shall be paid on the preceding business day or if the seventh
(7th) day of the month falls on a Sunday, the semi-monthly
installment shall be paid on the next following business day).
Employee's Base Salary may be increased at the discretion of
Employer during the Term of this Agreement.

     3.02 Bonus Compensation. Nothing herein shall preclude the
Employer from authorizing the payment of additional compensation
to Employee over and above the Base Salary at any time payable to
her under this Agreement, whether as a bonus or otherwise. The
payment of such additional compensation shall not operate as an
amendment obligating Employer to make any similar payment or to
pay additional compensation at any future time or for any future
period, or be deemed to affect Employee's Base Salary in any
manner. Employee will participate in whatever bonus
plan is adopted by Employer including any cash bonus pools
established from time to time by Employer for Corporate
Executives.

efforts to continue to provide directors' and officers' liability
insurance covering Employee (with respect to events occurring
prior to termination of Employment) on terms no less favorable
(in terms of coverage and amounts) than those of such insurance
in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control. Following a
Change of Control, Employer will indemnify and hold harmless
Employee (and advance expenses) to the full extent provided in
the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Employer as in effect
immediately prior to the Change of Control.

     4.03 Tuition Reimbursement. Employee shall be entitled to

by such new employer's group medical health and life insurance
plan with benefits substantially similar to those provided by
Employer's insurance plan and without any pre-existing
conditions, exclusions, limitations or restrictions, whichever
occurs first. Such reimbursement shall be reduced for an amount
equivalent to the amounts charged Employee for health coverage
immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change of Control.

pursuant to this Section 5.06 shall satisfy the Employer's
obligations under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation
Act of 1985 ("COBRA") during the period that such continuation

termination by Employer within two years after a Change of
Control or by Employee for Good Reason occurs and such
termination is disputed, Employer shall pay to Employee all

result of a termination in seeking to obtain or enforce any right
or benefit provided by this Agreement (whether or not Employee is
successful in obtaining or enforcing such right or benefit) .

bonus) and continue Employee as a participant in all
compensation, benefit and insurance plans in which Employee was a
participant when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given,
until the dispute is finally resolved; provided that Employee's
right to continue to provide such services is solely within the
discretion of Employer, and nothing herein shall prohibit
Employer from terminating such services.

               (2) if Employee is no longer providing services,
Employer shall pay Employee fifty percent (50%) of the amount
specified in Section 5.03 and Employer will provide Employee with
the other benefits provided in Section 5.06, if, and only if,
Employee agrees in writing that if the dispute is resolved
against Employee, Employee will promptly refund to Employer all
payments specified in Section 5.03 that Employee receives under
this paragraph (c) plus interest at the rate provided in Section
1274(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
