     (a) Employee agrees:

          (1) To give the Board  three (3)  month's  written  advance  notice of
     voluntary termination of Employment with Employer. Such notice will include
     Employee's future employment or self-employment intentions,  identification

     development,  of the Employer. Employee acknowledges that Employer does not
     have  an  adequate  remedy  at law  in the  event  Employee  violates  this

     Paragraph  8(a)(1)  above,  or any change  therein  pursuant  to  Paragraph
     8(a)(3) above,  Employer will advise Employee as to whether such employment
     constitutes a Competing Business as defined in Paragraph 8(a)(4) above.

termination is voluntary or involuntary  and for whatever  reason.  In addition,
8(a)(1) will apply in the case of a voluntary termination by Employee.

9.   WAIVER OF AGREEMENT NOT TO COMPETE.

     The Employer,  based on the facts revealed to it by the Employee  regarding

agency,  as the case may be, with  Employer.  In the event of violation  hereof,
Employer may terminate any payments due to Employee hereunder.
