                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Employment Agreement ("AGREEMENT") is entered into as of June 16, 2005
(the "EFFECTIVE DATE"), by and between Vista.com, Inc., a Washington corporation
(the "COMPANY"), and Mark LeMay ("EMPLOYEE").

     The parties agree as follows:

     1. EMPLOYMENT. The Company hereby employs Employee through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Jadeon, Inc. ("JADEON"), and Employee hereby accepts such
employment, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

     2. DUTIES.

          2.1 POSITION. Employee shall report directly to the Company's
President or Chief Executive Officer and perform such duties as are customary
for the position of Division Executive. Employee shall devote Employee's full
business time and efforts to the performance of Employee's assigned duties for
the Company, provided, however, that Employee, subject to the approval of the
President, Chief Executive Officer or the Company's Board of Directors (the
"BOARD"), may devote reasonable periods of time to (a) serving on the boards of
directors of other corporations, and (b) engaging in charitable or community
service activities, so long as none of the foregoing additional activities
materially interferes with Employee's duties under this Agreement.

          2.2 WORK LOCATION. Employee's principal place of work shall be located
in Irvine, California, or such other location as the parties may agree upon from
time to time.

     3. TERM. The employment relationship pursuant to this Agreement shall be
for an initial term (the "INITIAL TERM") commencing on the Effective Date set
forth above and continuing until the earlier of (i) two (2) years from the
Effective Date or (ii) the date on which Employee exercises his right to
repurchase all of the outstanding shares of Jadeon pursuant to Article X of that
certain Stock Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Employee dated
as of May 17, 2005, as amended, and may be terminated by Employee or the Company
at any time, with or without Cause (as defined in Section 7.1) or for Good
Reason (as defined in Section 7.2), subject to the provisions regarding
termination set forth in Section 7; provided, however, that the employment
relationship pursuant to this Agreement shall be automatically renewed for
additional twelve-month terms, unless either party gives the other notice of
intention to terminate not less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the
Initial Term or any renewal period thereof.

     4. COMPENSATION.

          4.1 BASE SALARY. As compensation for Employee's performance of
Employee's duties under this Agreement, the Company shall pay Employee a base
salary ("BASE SALARY"), at a monthly rate, initially, of $10,416.67 (which
equals $125,000.00 per year), payable in accordance with the normal payroll
practices of the Company, less required deductions for state and federal
withholding tax, social security and all other employment taxes and payroll
deductions.

          4.2 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. If, during the period commencing from the
Effective Date through June 16, 2015, cumulative Gross Revenues exceed
$60,000,000 in the aggregate (such excess Gross Revenues shall be referred to
herein as the "EXCESS GROSS REVENUES"), the Company shall pay Employee a
commission equal to the lesser of the following: (a) 10.0% of any such Excess
Gross Revenues recognized by Jadeon for such period, or (b) 100% of Jadeon's net
income plus amortization


                                        1

for such period, calculated consistently with generally accepted accounting
principles, as applied by the Company (the "COMMISSION PAYMENT"), payable on
quarterly basis, less required deductions for state and federal withholding tax,
social security and all other employment taxes and payroll deductions. For
purposes of this Agreement, "GROSS REVENUES" means the gross revenues recognized
by Jadeon from the sales of its products and services from the business
conducted by Jadeon, excluding costs of all hardware sales of Jadeon that are
sold as part of a system installation, in all cases calculated consistently with
generally accepted accounting principles, as applied by the Company. In no event
shall Employee be entitled to any Commission Payment for any Excess Gross
Revenues received by Jadeon or the Company after June 16, 2015. The parties
acknowledge and agree that Jadeon's results of operations will be included in
the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and, as a result, the
parties agree that, for purposes of calculating Jadeon's net income plus
amortization, Jadeon will be assigned its reasonable portion of the general and
administrative costs of the Company, as determined by the Company's independent
auditors, provided that the amount of such general and administrative costs
assigned to Jadeon shall not exceed $20,000 per month.

          4.3 PERFORMANCE AND SALARY REVIEW. The Board will periodically review
Employee's performance on no less than an annual basis to determine whether
Employee's salary or other compensation will be adjusted. Adjustments to salary
or other compensation, if any, will be made by the Board in its sole and
absolute discretion.

          4.4 VACATION. Employee shall accrue three (3) calendar weeks of paid
vacation in each year of this Agreement in addition to regular Company holidays.
Vacation may be carried over to the following year and shall not be deemed
forfeited if unused, provided, however, that Employee may not accrue more than
four (4) calendar weeks of vacation.

     5. BENEFITS AND INSURANCE. Employee shall be entitled to all health
insurance and other benefits that the Company may make generally available from
time to time to its employees.

     6. BUSINESS EXPENSES. The Company shall pay, or promptly reimburse, the
Employee for all reasonable, out-of-pocket business expenses incurred in the
performance of Employee's duties on behalf of Company for which Employee submits
appropriate supporting documentation.

     7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYEE'S EMPLOYMENT.

          7.1 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE BY COMPANY. The Company may terminate
Employee's employment at any time for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement,
"CAUSE" is defined as: (a) acts constituting willful misconduct on the part of
Employee with respect to Employee's obligations or otherwise relating to the

not cured within ten (10) days following written notice specifying the breach of
this Agreement or the Employee NDA given by Employee to the Company; or (b)
Employee's conviction or entry of a plea of nolo contendere for fraud or
embezzlement, any felony, or any crime involving moral turpitude. In the event
Employee's employment is terminated in accordance with this Section 7.1,

prorated to the actual date of Employee's termination of employment with Jadeon
or the Company (the "TERMINATION DATE"), and (ii) accrued but unused vacation as
