                                      -3-
<PAGE>

         a.       Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the
                  Company. Director shall be entitled to the rights of
                  indemnification provided in this Section l(a) if, by reason of
                  Director's Services, Director is, or is threatened to be made,
                  a Party to a Proceeding other than a Proceeding by or in the
                  right of the Company (which is addressed in Section 1(b)
                  below). Pursuant to this Section 1(a), the Company shall
                  indemnify Director against all Liabilities and Expenses that
                  have been incurred by Director in connection with such
                  Proceeding, or in connection with any claim, issue, or matter
                  therein, if Director acted in good faith and in a manner that
                  Director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
                  best interests of the Company; provided, however, that, with
                  respect to any criminal Proceeding, Director must additionally
                  have had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
                  unlawful.

         b.       Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Director shall
                  be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this
                  Section 1(b) if, by reason of Director's Services, Director
                  is, or is threatened to be made, a Party to a Proceeding that
                  has been brought by or in the right of the Company (not by
                  another person, as provided in Section 1(a) above). Pursuant
                  to this Section 1(b), the Company shall indemnify Director
                  against all Expenses (and not Liabilities) that have been
                  incurred by Director in connection with such Proceeding, or in
                  connection with any claim, issue, or matter therein, if
                  Director acted in good faith and in a manner that Director
                  reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
                  interests of the Company.

         c.       Sole Limit on Indemnification. The Company shall not be
                  required to indemnify Director pursuant to this Agreement only
                  if it is finally determined by a court or by a Decision-Maker,
                  under the procedures and subject to the presumptions that are
                  set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof, to be unlawful to do so
                  under Section 902 of the Act, either because: (i) Director did
                  not meet the standard of conduct set forth above in Sections
                  1(a) and 1(b); or (ii) if Director is judged to be liable in a
                  Proceeding because he or she derived an improper personal
                  benefit (whether or not in connection with Director's
                  Services).

3.       Indemnification for Expenses When Director is Wholly or Partly
         Successful

         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent
that Director is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any
Proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, the Company
shall indemnify Director to the maximum extent permitted by law against all
Expenses that have incurred by Director in connection with such Proceeding. If
Director is not wholly successful in such Proceeding, but is successful, on the
merits or otherwise, with respect to one or more but less than all of the
claims, issues, or matters therein, the Company shall indemnify Director against
all Expenses that have been incurred by Director in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue, or matter. For purposes of this Section 3,
and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue, or matter in such a
Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a
successful result as to such claim, issue, or matter, whether such dismissal was
for substantive or procedural reasons.

                                      -4-

4.       Contribution in the Event of Joint Liability by Director and by the
         Company

         Subject to all the limitations of the Act, this Agreement, and the
further provisions of this Section 4 below, if the Company is jointly liable
with Director (or would be liable, if joined in such Proceeding), the Company
shall pay the entire amount of Liabilities and Expenses relating to such
Proceeding, without requiring Director to contribute to such payment.
Furthermore, the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of
contribution it may have against Director in such instance. The Company shall
not enter into any settlement of any such Proceeding in which the Company is
jointly liable with Director (or would be liable, if joined in such Proceeding)
unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims that
have been asserted against Director.

         a.       Proportionate Liability in Certain Instances. Without
                  diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set
                  forth in the preceding paragraph, if, for any reason, Director
                  shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any
                  liabilities and/or expenses (such as those described in the
                  definitions of "Liabilities" and "Expenses" of Director
                  herein) in connection with any Proceeding in which the Company
                  is jointly liable with Director (or would be, if joined in
                  such Proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount
                  of such liabilities and/or expenses in proportion to the
                  relative benefits received by the Company, together with all
                  directors, officers, and/or employees of the Company (other
                  than Director) who are jointly liable with Director (or would
                  be liable, if joined in such Proceeding), on the one hand, and
                  the benefits received by the Director, on the other hand, from
                  the transaction or event from which such Proceeding arose;
                  provided, however, that the proportion determined on the basis
                  of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary to conform to
                  law, be further adjusted by reference to the relative fault of
                  the Company and all directors, officers, or employees of the
                  Company (other than Director) who are jointly liable with
                  Director (or would be liable, if joined in such Proceeding),
                  on the one hand, and the fault of Director, on the other hand,
                  in connection with the transaction or event from which such
                  Proceeding arose, as well as any other equitable
                  considerations which the Act or the laws of the State of Utah
                  may require to be considered. The relative fault of the
                  Company and all directors, officers, or employees of the
                  Company (other than Director) who are jointly liable with
                  Director (or would be liable, if joined in such Proceeding),
                  on the one hand, and the fault of Director, on the other hand,
                  shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the
                  degree to which their actions were motivated by intent to gain
                  personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their
                  liability is primary or secondary, and the degree to which
                  their conduct is active or passive.

         b.       Claims of Contribution by Other Directors, Officers,
                  Employees, or Agents of the Company. The Company hereby agrees
                  to fully indemnify and hold Director harmless from any claims
                  of contribution which may be brought by directors, officers,
                  employees, or agents of the Company (other than Director), who
                  may be jointly liable with Director in any action, suit, or
                  proceeding in which such directors, officers, employees, or
                  agents of the Company have been named as parties by reason of
                  their services to the Company in such capacities.

5.       Advancement of Expenses.

         a.       Request for Advancement by Director. Notwithstanding any other
                  provision of this Agreement, if Director incurs Expenses in
                  connection with any Proceeding by reason of Director's
                  Services, Director may, from time to time, make a request to
                  the Company that the Company advance such Expenses to
                  Director, and the Company may advance such Expenses to
                  Director, whether prior to or after the final disposition of
                  such Proceeding, pursuant to the procedures set forth in this
                  Section 5 below. Director shall furnish to the Company a
                  written affirmation of his good faith belief that he or she
                  has met the applicable standard of conduct for such
                  indemnification under Section 902 of the Act. Such statement
                  or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred
                  by Director and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by
                  an undertaking by or on behalf of Director to repay any such
                  advanced Expenses if it shall ultimately be determined by a
                  court or by a Decision-Maker that Director is not entitled to
                  be indemnified against such Expenses because he or she did not
                  meet the applicable standard of conduct for such
                  indemnification under Section 902 of the Act. Such undertaking
                  by Director shall be an unlimited general obligation of
                  Director, shall be unsecured, and the Company must accept such
                  undertaking without reference to Director's financial ability
                  to make such repayment.

         b.       Determination of Advancement and Payment. The Decision-Maker
                  shall make a determination of whether Director is entitled to
                  advancement of Expenses and shall pay such amount to Director
                  pursuant to the deadlines, procedures, and the presumptions
                  contained in Section 6 below. All advances of Expenses by the
                  Company to Director shall be interest free.

         c.       Repayment of Advanced Expenses by Director. Notwithstanding
                  the foregoing, the obligation of the Company to advance
                  Expenses pursuant to this Section 5 shall be subject to the
                  condition that, if, when and to the extent that the Company
                  determines that Director would not be permitted to be
                  indemnified under applicable law, Director shall reimburse the
                  Company within thirty (30) days of such determination for all
                  such amounts theretofore advanced to Director by the Company;
                  provided, however, that if Director has commenced or
                  thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent
                  jurisdiction to secure a determination that Director should be
                  indemnified under applicable law, any determination made by
                  the Company that Director would not be permitted to be
                  indemnified under applicable law shall not be binding and
                  Director shall not be required to reimburse the Company for
                  any advance of Expenses until a final judicial determination
                  is made with respect thereto (and as to which all rights of
                  appeal therefrom have been exhausted or have lapsed).

         It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for Director rights for
the advancement of Expenses and for indemnification for Liabilities and Expenses
that are as favorable as may be permitted under the Act and public policy of the
State of Utah. Accordingly, the parties agree that the following procedures and
presumptions shall apply in the event of any question as to whether Director is
entitled to indemnification under this Agreement:

         a.       Request by Director for Payment. Director shall submit to the
                  Company a written request for Payment. Such request shall be
                  accompanied by such documentation and information that is
                  reasonably available to Director and that is relevant to
                  whether and to what extent Director is entitled to Payment.
                  The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of
                  such a request, advise the Board of Directors in writing that
                  Director has requested such Payment.

         b.       Determination of Right to Payment by Decision-Maker. Upon
                  Director's request for Payment, the Company shall make a
                  determination of whether Director is entitled to a Payment in
                  the specific case. Such determination shall be made by one of
                  the following three Decision-Makers, with Director having the
                  sole right to select which one of these three Decision-Makers
                  shall make such determination: (i) by a majority vote of the
                  members of the Board of Directors or a special committee
                  thereof), as provided in the Act; (ii) by "Special Legal
                  Counsel," as defined in the Act; or (iii) by a majority vote
                  of the holders of the Company's voting stock (except for those
                  shares held or controlled by Director), as provided in the
                  Act. In making this determination, the Decision-Maker shall
                  act reasonably and in good faith.

         c.       Fees of Special Legal Counsel. The Company shall pay any and
                  all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by such Special
                  Legal Counsel in connection with such counsel's acting as
                  such.

         d.       Presumptions. In making a determination whether Director is
                  entitled to receive a Payment, the Decision-Maker shall
                  presume the following, and anyone seeking to overcome these
                  presumptions shall have the burden of proof by clear and
                  convincing evidence:

                  i.       Director has met the standard of conduct in Section
                           902 of the Act and is entitled to indemnification
                           under this Agreement;

                  ii.      Director has reasonably relied on information,
                           opinions, reports, or statements, including financial
                           statements and other financial data, that have been
                           delivered to him by the Company's officers,
                           employees, legal counsels, public accountants, other
                           professional advisors, or by a committee of the Board
                           of Directors on which Director is not a member; and

                  iii.     The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of
                           any other Director of the Company or of any other
                           officer, employee, or agent of the Company are not
                           the knowledge and/or actions (or failure to act) of
                           Director.

         e.       Timing of Determination. If the Board of Directors or Special
                  Legal Counsel is to make the determination of whether Director
                  is entitled to Payment, such determination shall be made
                  within twenty-one (21) days after receipt by the Company of
                  Director's request therefor. If, however, such determination
                  is to be made by the shareholders of the Company, then, within
                  fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the
                  Director's request therefor, the Board of Directors (or a
                  committee thereof) shall resolve to submit such determination
                  to the shareholders of the Company for their consideration
                  either at (i) at an annual meeting of the shareholders that is
                  scheduled to be held within seventy-five (75) days after the
                  Company's receipt of Director's request for Payment; or (ii)
                  at a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company that
                  is scheduled to be held within sixty (60) days from the date
                  on which the Board of Directors calls such special meeting.

         f.       Timing and Method of Payment. Once the Decision-Maker has made
                  a determination that Director is entitled to a Payment, the
                  Company shall make such Payment to Director within seven (7)
                  days following the date on which such determination is made.
                  The Company shall make such Payment in such currency, by such
                  method of payment (check or wire transfer), and to such
                  person, all of which Director shall designate. By way of
                  example, if Director has incurred legal fees in connection
                  with a Proceeding, Director may instruct the Company to pay
                  such fees directly to Director's legal counsel, without the
                  need for Director to have paid such fees first.

         g.       Director's Cooperation. Director shall cooperate with the
                  Decision-Maker in making the determination of whether Director
                  is entitled to Payment. Such cooperation shall include
                  Director's providing, upon reasonable advance request, any
                  documentation or information which is not privileged or not
                  otherwise protected from disclosure, which is reasonably
                  available to Director, and which is relevant to making a
                  determination of whether and to what extent Director is
                  entitled to such Payment.

         h.       Costs and Expenses by Director in Making the Determination.
                  Any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees and
                  disbursements) incurred by Director in so cooperating with the
                  Decision-Maker shall be borne by the Company, and the Company
                  shall indemnify Director for all such expenses, regardless of
                  whether Director is determined to be entitled or not to such
                  Payment.

         i.       Presumption of Success on the Merits or Otherwise. The Company
                  acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition of a
                  Proceeding--short of final judgment--may be successful if it
                  permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction,
                  disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any Proceeding
                  to which Director is a Party is resolved in any manner other
                  than by adverse judgment against Director (including, without
                  limitation, settlement of such Proceeding with or without
                  payment of money or other consideration), it shall be presumed
                  that Director has been successful on the merits or otherwise
                  in such Proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this
                  presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of
                  persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. The termination
                  of a Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or
                  upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of
                  itself, be determinative that Director did not meet the
                  standard of conduct that would entitle him to indemnification
                  hereunder.

7.       Remedies of Director

         a.       Remedies. In the event that (i) the Decision-Maker fails to
                  make a determination of whether Director is entitled to a
                  Payment within the required time, as set forth in Section 7
                  above, (ii) the Decision-Maker determines that Director is not
                  entitled to a Payment under the Act and this Agreement, (iii)
                  the Company fails to make a required Payment to Director
                  within the required time, as set forth in Section 7 above,
                  Director shall be entitled to an adjudication in an
                  appropriate court of the State of Utah, or in any other court
                  of competent jurisdiction, of his entitlement to such Payment.
                  Director shall commence such proceeding, seeking an
                  adjudication thereof within 180 days following the date on
                  which Director first has the right to commence such proceeding
                  pursuant to this Section 7(a). The Company shall not oppose
                  Director's right to seek any such adjudication.

         b.       Effect of Adverse Determination. In the event that the
                  Decision-Maker shall have determined that Director is not
                  entitled to a Payment, any judicial proceeding commenced
                  pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects
                  as a de novo trial on the merits, and Director shall not be
                  prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination by the
                  Decision-Maker.

         c.       Effect of Positive Determination. If the Decision-Maker shall
                  have determined that Director is entitled to indemnification,
                  the Company shall be bound by such determination in any
                  judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7,
                  absent a prohibition of such indemnification under the Act.

         d.       Expenses of Enforcement. In the event that Director, pursuant
                  to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights
                  under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or
                  to recover under any D&O Insurance maintained by the Company,
                  the Company shall pay on his behalf, in advance, any and all
                  expenses (of the types described in the definition of
                  "Expenses" above) that are actually incurred by Director, or
                  on his behalf, in such judicial adjudication, regardless of
                  whether Director ultimately is determined to be entitled to
                  such Payment or such recovery of proceeds from such D&O
                  Insurance.

         e.       The Company is Bound. The Company shall be precluded from
                  asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to
                  this Section 7 that the procedures and presumptions of this
                  Agreement are not valid, not binding, or not enforceable, and
                  the Company shall stipulate in any such court that the Company
                  is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

                                      -9-

8.       Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Superior Rights; D&O Insurance;
         Subrogation

         a.       Rights are Non-Exclusive and Cumulative. The rights of
                  indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be
                  deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Director may at
                  any time be entitled under applicable law, the Articles, the
                  Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders, a resolution of
                  the Board of Directors, or otherwise. Every other right or
                  remedy to which Director may be entitled shall be cumulative
                  and in addition to every other right and remedy given to
                  Director hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in
                  equity, or otherwise. The assertion or employment by Director
                  of any right or remedy hereunder or otherwise shall not
                  prevent the concurrent assertion or employment by Director of
                  any other right or remedy.

         b.       Survival of Rights. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this
                  Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict
                  any right of Director under this Agreement in respect of any
                  action taken or omitted by Director in his Services prior to
                  such amendment, alteration, or repeal.

         c.       Superior Rights. To the extent that a change in the Act,
                  whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater
                  indemnification than would be afforded currently under the
                  Articles, the Bylaws, and under this Agreement, it is the
                  intent of the parties hereto that Director shall enjoy by this
                  Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change.

         d.       D&O Insurance. The Company shall maintain D&O Insurance that
                  covers the services of directors and officers to the Company
                  or, at the Company's request, to another entity (including the
                  Services of Director). Such D&O Insurance shall provide
                  coverage that is commercially reasonable, considering the
                  Company's size, type of business, and claims history. Such
                  policy of D&O Insurance shall protect Director to the maximum
                  extent that any other director or officer is protected
                  thereunder. If a claim arises under any such policy of D&O
                  Insurance, the Company will make demands for such insurance in
                  accordance with the requirements of such policy.

         e.       Subrogation. In the event the Company makes any Payment to
                  Director, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of
                  such Payment to all of the rights of recovery that Director
                  may have under the Company's D&O Insurance. Director shall
                  execute all documents and shall take all action that may be
                  necessary for the Company to secure such rights of subrogation
                  to bring suit to enforce such rights.

9.       No Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, Director shall not be entitled to a Payment under this Agreement in
the following instances: (i) for Liabilities and/or Expenses for which Director
has actually received reimbursement under any insurance policy, contract,
agreement, or otherwise; (ii) for expenses and the payment of profits arising
from the purchase and sale by Director of securities in violation of Section
16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or any similar
successor statute; (iii) for Liabilities and Expenses with respect to any
action, suit, or proceeding that is brought by Director against the Company
and/or it directors, officers, employees, or agents; provided, however, that
Director shall be entitled to a Payment under this Agreement with respect to
such action, suit, or proceeding that is brought by Director if either (a) the
bringing of such action, suit, or proceeding or the making of such claim is
approved by the Board of Directors; or (b) such action, suit, or proceeding or
such claim is being brought by Director to assert, interpret, or enforce
Director's rights under this Agreement.

                                      -10-

10.      Duration of Agreement. All agreements and obligations of the Company
contained in this Agreement shall continue during the period in which Director
is a member of the Board of Directors or an officer and shall continue
thereafter so long as Director shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any
proceeding commenced by Director under Section 7 hereof) by reason of Director's
Services, whether or not Director is providing Services at the time any
Liability or Expense is incurred by Director in connection with such Proceeding
(or any proceeding commenced by Director under Section 7 hereof).

11.      Indemnification for Expenses as a Witness. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Director is called to be a
witness, in connection with Director's Services, in any action, suit, or
proceeding that involves the Company and/or its directors, officers, employee,
and/or agents and to which Director is not a party, the Company shall indemnify
Director against all Expenses incurred by Director, or on his behalf, in
connection therewith.

12.      General Provisions

         a.       Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement
                  shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
                  invalid, void, illegal or otherwise unenforceable for any
                  reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality, and
                  enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
                  (including each portion of any section of this Agreement
                  containing any such provision held to be invalid, void,
                  illegal, or unenforceable that is not itself invalid, void,
                  illegal, or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or
                  impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest
                  extent permitted by law; and (b) to the fullest extent
                  possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without
                  limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement
                  containing any such provision that is held to be invalid,
                  void, illegal, or unenforceable that is not itself invalid,
                  void, illegal, or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to
                  give effect to the intent manifested thereby. Without limiting
                  the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to
                  confer upon Director rights to indemnification (including
                  advancement of expenses) to the fullest extent permitted by
                  applicable laws. In the event any provision hereof conflicts
                  with any applicable law, such provision shall be deemed
                  modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the
                  extent necessary to resolve such conflict.


                                      -11-

         b.       Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification,
                  termination, or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding
                  on either party hereto unless such change shall have been
                  executed in writing by each of the parties hereto. No waiver
                  of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or
                  shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof
                  (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a
                  continuing waiver.

         c.       Notice By Director. Director agrees promptly to notify the
                  Company in writing upon being served with or otherwise
                  receiving any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint,
                  indictment, information, or other document relating to any
                  Proceeding or matter which may give rise to his rights of
                  indemnification (including advancement of expenses) hereunder.

         d.       Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other
                  communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
                  deemed to have been duly given if it is (i) delivered by hand
                  to the party to whom said notice or other communication is
                  directed or (ii) mailed by certified or registered mail with
                  postage prepaid, on the third business day after the date on

                  constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the
                  construction thereof.

         g.       Governing Law. The parties agree that this Agreement shall be
                  governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with,

         i.       Construction of this Agreement. The recitals to this Agreement
                  are incorporated in this Agreement by this reference.
                  References in this Agreement to the masculine gender shall
                  include reference to the feminine gender. References in the
                  singular shall include reference to the plural, as
                  appropriate. The use of the words "include" or "including" or
                  similar words in this Agreement shall mean that the items
                  following the words "include" or "including" are not an
                  exhaustive list of the items that precede these words, but are
                  rather some (but not all) of the examples thereof.

         j.       Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire
                  agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the
                  subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and
                  understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties
                  hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
