or;

          (ii) Failure by Executive to satisfactorily perform the duties stated

goals, and objectives as assigned from time to time by the Company in writing,
if Executive has not corrected or remedied, or has not commenced to correct or
remedy, such unsatisfactorily or non-substantial performance of such specified
duties within thirty (30) days (or such other time as may be provided in writing
by the Company) of Executive's actual receipt of such written notice; or

          (iii) Executive's gross negligence or willful misconduct relating to
the Company that is materially injurious to the Company; or

          (iv) Executive's excessive use of alcohol or illegal drugs that (A)

received by Executive; or

          (v) Executive's abandonment of his position or termination of this
Agreement for "No Good Reason;" or

          (vi) Any material breach by Executive of this Agreement or of any of
the Company's applicable written policies then in effect, including without
limitations, the Company's Code of Ethics for Officers and Directors with
written notice thereof by the Company, provided such notice is actually received
by Executive and an appropriate period to cure such material breach, if such
breach is curable, is given and has expired.

     Upon the Company's termination of this Agreement and Executive's employment
For Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to, and the Company shall pay the
Executive the following "For Cause Separation Pay": the Executive's Base Salary
and benefits through the effective date of termination at the Executive's then
current rate (including any applicable pro rated bonus and accrued vacation
pay). Except as provided for herein or in any other written agreement, the
Company shall have no other liabilities or obligations to Executive upon payment
in full of the For Cause Separation Pay.

     c) Termination by Company Without Cause. The Company may terminate "Without
Cause" Executive's employment with the Company or this Agreement at any time for
any or no reason upon thirty (30) Days written notice. Such termination by
Company shall be deemed to be "without cause" by the Company. In the event of
termination by the Company pursuant to this Section, Executive shall execute a
full and complete release of any and all claims against the Company in a form
satisfactory to


                                       3
<PAGE>

the Company, in which event, for a period of six (6) months commencing from the
effective date of termination, the Executive shall be entitled to and shall
receive, and the Company shall pay the following "Without Cause Separation Pay":
(i) An amount equal to Executive's Base Salary as of the date of termination;
plus (ii) a pro rata portion of any accrued vacation not already taken and of
any bonus that would have been paid to Executive under any bonus plan which is
adopted by the Company's Compensation Committee or Board of Directors in such
year if the Company and Executive had met the targeted goals to the date of
termination; plus (iii) the continuation for three (3) months from the effective
date of termination of all of Executive's benefits including, without
limitation, all insurance plans, on the same terms and conditions as had been
provided to Executive prior to the termination, all of the foregoing which shall
be payable in accordance with the Company's customary payroll practices then in
effect, plus (iv) any unvested options shall be vested as of the date of
termination.

     d) Termination by Executive For Good Reason. Executive may terminate this
Agreement for "Good Reason" by giving the Company thirty (30) days prior written
notice (the "Notice Period") to that effect, specifically stating Executive's
Good Reason for terminating in sufficient detail to allow the Company to respond
effectively to the notice, with the termination becoming effective on the 31st
day after such notice is actually received by the Company (the "Termination
Date"), unless the Company at its option cures any alleged breach, if curable,
on or before the Termination Date, or if the breach is not capable of being
cured within the Notice Period, Company made good faith efforts to cure any
alleged breach prior to the Termination Date. The stated Good Reason must be one
or more of any of the reasons defined as a "Good Reason" herein. As used in this
Agreement, a "Good Reason" means termination by Executive only for any one or
more of the following reasons:

          (i) Any reduction of Executive's then-current Base Salary without
Executive's prior written consent; or

          (ii) Any material breach of this Agreement by the Company, not cured
or in the process of being cured by the Company as provided herein after the
Company receives not less than 30 days prior written notice by the Executive.

          An Executive's termination for any of the foregoing Good Reasons shall
be treated the same as a termination "Without Cause" by the Company for purposes
of calculating separation pay, entitling the Executive to the Without Cause
Separation Pay set forth in Section 5(c).

     e) Termination by Executive for No Good Reason. Executive may terminate
this Agreement for any reason (other than a Good Reason) or no reason at any
time with not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company
(such termination shall be called a termination for "No Good Reason"). After the
Company receives notice of a termination for No Good Reason, the Company may by
written notice to the Executive cause the effective date of any such termination
to be accelerated without causing such termination to be considered a
termination by the Company Without Cause. Executive's termination for No Good
Reason shall be treated the same as a termination "For Cause" by the Company for
purposes of calculating separation pay, entitling the Executive to the For Cause
Separation Pay set forth in Section 5(b). For avoidance of doubt, a termination
by Executive for any reason that is also a Good Reason shall be treated as a
termination by Executive for Good Reason as set forth in Section 5(d).

     f) Return of Company Property. Upon any termination of this Agreement,
Executive shall immediately return to the Company all property of the Company in
Executive's possession, including Confidential Information (as defined below).
Executive acknowledges that the Company may withhold


                                        4

<PAGE>

any compensation and benefits owed to Executive hereunder until all such
property is returned in good condition, normal wear and tear excepted.

     g) Change in Control. If, within ninety (90) days prior to a Change of
Control, as defined in Executive's Stock Option Agreement, the Agreement
terminates for any reason (other than pursuant to Section 5(b) or (e) above),
then, (i) any unvested options shall vest as of the date of the Change of
Control and shall remain vested and exercisable as specified in Executive's
Stock Option Agreement, and (ii) Executive shall receive, and the Company shall
pay the Executive, the "Without Cause Separation Pay" set forth in Section 5(c)
above.

extent permitted by law, all such discoveries, inventions and improvements will
be deemed works made-for-hire. Executive grants and agrees to convey to Company
or its nominee the entire right, title and interest, domestic and foreign, which
Executive may have in such discoveries, improvements or inventions, or a lesser
interest therein, at the option of Company. Executive further agrees to
promptly, upon request, sign all applications for patents, copyrights,

          (ii) Executive agrees that, except as required by Executive's duties
or authorized in writing by the Company, Executive will not at any time during
and for a period of three (3) years after the termination of Executive's
employment with the Company, disclose, directly or indirectly, any Confidential
Information of the Company to any third party; except as may be required by
applicable law or court order, in which case Executive shall promptly notify
Company so as to allow it to seek a protective order if it so elects;

          (iii) Executive agrees to take all reasonable steps necessary, or
reasonably requested by the Company, to ensure that all Confidential Information
of the Company is kept confidential for the use and benefit of the Company and
its subsidiaries; and

in the possession of or under the control of Executive. Executive further agrees
that, if requested by the Company to return any Confidential Information
pursuant to this Subsection (iv), Executive will not make or retain any copy or
extract from such materials.

          For the purposes of this Section 6(d), "Confidential Information"

the Company or entrusted to the Company in confidence by its customers, of which
Executive gained knowledge by reason of Executive's employment by the Company,

become engaged, but does not apply to information which is generally known to
the public or the trade, unless such knowledge results from an unauthorized
disclosure by Executive. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited
to, any and all information developed by or for the Company concerning plans,
marketing and sales methods, materials, processes, business forms, procedures,
devices used by the Company, its suppliers and customers with which the Company
had dealt with prior to Executive's termination of employment with the Company,

materials, including, software programs, source code, object code,
specifications, documents, abstracts and summaries developed in connection with
Executive's employment. Executive acknowledges that the programs and
documentation developed in connection with Executive's employment with the
Company shall be the exclusive property of the Company, and that the Company
shall retain all right, title and interest in such materials, including without
limitation patent and copyright interests. Nothing herein shall be construed as
a license from the Company to Executive to make, use, sell or copy any
inventions, ideas, trade secrets, trademarks, copyrightable works or other
intellectual property of the Company during the Term of this Agreement or
subsequent to its termination.

     e) Executive acknowledges that there is no general geographical restriction
contained in this Section 6 because the Company's and/or Affiliates' Customers
are not confined to one geographical area or operate on a national level.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction were to
determine that any of the foregoing covenants would be held to be unreasonable
in time or distance or scope, the time or distance or scope may be reduced by
appropriate order of the court to that deemed reasonable.


                                        6

     f) Executive confirms that Executive is not bound by the terms of any
agreement with any previous Company or other party which restricts in any way
Executive's use or disclosure of information or Executive's engagement in any
business, except as Executive may disclose in a separate schedule attached to
this Agreement prior to Company's and Executive's execution of this Agreement.
Further, Executive represents that Executive has delivered to the Company prior
to executing this Agreement true and complete copies of any agreements disclosed
on such attached schedule. Executive represents to the Company that Executive's
execution of this Agreement, employment with the Company and the performance of
Executive's proposed duties for the Company will not violate any obligations
Executive may have to any such previous Company or other party. In any work for
the Company, Executive will not disclose or make use of any information in
violation of any agreements with or rights of any such previous Company or other
party, and will not bring to the premises of the Company any copies or other
tangible embodiments of non-public information belonging to or obtained from any
such previous employment or other party. In the event of breach of this
subsection (f) Executive hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents (the "Indemnified
Parties") from any and all damages, suits, claims, liabilities, actions
(individually and collectively, the "Indemnity Event") arising or resulting from
such breach. In the event of any Indemnity Event, the Indemnified Parties shall
provide Executive with timely written notice of same, and thereafter Executive
shall at its own expense defend, protect and hold harmless the applicable
Indemnified Parties against said Indemnity Event. If the Executive should fail
to so defend and/or indemnify and save harmless the Indemnified Parties, then in
such instance the Indemnified Parties shall have full rights to defend, pay or
settle said Indemnity Event on their behalf without notice to Executive and with
full rights to recourse against Executive for all fees, costs, expenses and
payments made or agreed to be paid to discharge said Indemnity Event.

     g) Assistance in Litigation. Executive shall upon reasonable notice,
furnish such information and proper assistance to the Company as it may

          i) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and
obligations contained in this Section 6 relate to special, unique and
extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of the terms of this Section
will cause the Company irreparable injury for which adequate remedies at law are
not available. Therefore, Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled
(without having to post a bond or other surety) to an injunction, restraining
order, or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction,
restraining the Executive from committing any violation of the covenants and
obligations set forth in this Section 6.

          ii) The Company's rights and remedies under this Section 6 are
cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and remedies the Company may
have pursuant to the specific provisions of this Agreement and at law or in
equity.
