                                  ARTICLE III.
                            TERMINATION OF SERVICES

          3.1  Termination. Executive's employment with the Company hereunder
may be terminated by the Company or the Executive, as applicable, at any time
prior to the end of the Term for any of the following reasons:

               (a) Disability. Upon the failure of the Executive to render
services to the Company for a continuous period of six (6) months because of the
Executive's physical or mental disability or illness, the Company may terminate
this Agreement and the Executive's employment hereunder, provided such
termination does not otherwise violate applicable law. If there should be a
dispute between the parties as to the Executive's physical or mental disability,
such dispute shall be settled by the opinion of an impartial reputable physician
agreed upon for such purpose by the parties or their representatives. The
certificate of such physician as to the matter in dispute shall be final and
binding on the parties.

purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean: (i) without the consent of
the Executive, the assignment to him of any duties inconsistent with Executive's
position and authority as contemplated in Section 1.1 of this Agreement,
including any adverse or material change in Executive's reporting
responsibilities and/or diminution of any material duties or responsibilities
previously assigned to Executive by the Board; (ii) the failure of the Company
to perform any of its material obligations hereunder; (iii) a reduction in the
overall compensation and benefits available to Executive; or (iv) without the

principally rendered in a location that is more than 100 miles from the Work
Location.

               (c) Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement and the
Executive's employment hereunder for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Cause" shall mean: (i) the Executive's willful failure or refusal to materially
perform his duties under this Agreement; (ii) the Executive's willful failure or
refusal to follow material directions of the Board or any other act of material,
willful insubordination on the part of Executive; (iii) the engaging by the
Executive in willful misconduct which is materially and demonstrably injurious
to the Company or any of its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates, monetarily
or otherwise; (iv) the commission by the Executive of an act of fraud or
embezzlement against the Company or any of its divisions, subsidiaries or
affiliates; (v) any conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, the
Executive with respect to a felony (other than a traffic violation); or (vi) any
act of fraud or dishonesty committed by the Executive which is materially
detrimental to the business or

                                       4

reputation of the Company. No act nor failure to act on the Executive's part
shall be considered "willful" unless he has acted or failed to act, with an
absence of good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or failure
to act was in the best interests of the Company. Executive's employment shall
not be terminated for Cause prior to notice of such termination being provided
to Executive, and if the reasons for such termination for Cause are curable,
after the Executive has had a reasonable opportunity to cure.

               (d) Without Cause. The Company may terminate this Agreement
without Cause upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Executive.

Disability. In the event that Executive's employment is terminated by the
Company with Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason, Executive shall be

               (c) reimbursement of any unreimbursed business expenses,
financial planning expenses, legal fees, country club dues or automobile
expenses incurred prior to the date of termination.

          3.3  Payment on Termination without Cause or for Good Reason. Subject
to the Executive's continuing compliance with the covenants contained in Section
4.3 of this Agreement (the "Covenants") and the execution by the Executive of a
binding general waiver and release of claims in substantially the form attached

and conditions as provided to other active employees.

          3.4  Death. In addition to any death benefits which may be payable

terminated during the Term by reason of Death, the Executive's estate shall be
entitled to receive the following amounts in a lump sum:

               (a) payment of any earned, but unpaid salary accrued through and

stock or debt of any public corporation as long as the Executive is not
otherwise in violation of this Covenant.

               (b) No Diversion. The Executive covenants and agrees that (i)
during the Term and (ii) the Post-Termination Period, he shall not divert or
attempt to divert or take advantage of or attempt to take advantage of any

the Company and, in addition to any other remedies it may have, and
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.4, the Company shall be entitled to
temporary injunctive relief without being required to post a bond and permanent
injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage. The Company
may elect to seek one or more of these remedies at its sole discretion on a case
by case basis. Failure to seek any or all remedies in one case does not restrict
the Company from seeking any remedies in another situation. Such action by the
Company shall not constitute a waiver of any of its rights. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that any breach of any of the Covenants during the
period of his employment shall be grounds for immediate dismissal and forfeiture
of any accrued and unpaid, bonus or other compensation and benefits, including
all options and Bonus Stock granted pursuant to this Agreement and all other

any and all other rights and remedies the Company may exercise.

               (e) Severability and Modification of Any Unenforceable Covenant.
It is the parties' intent that each of the Covenants be read and interpreted
with every reasonable inference given to its enforceability. However, it is also
the parties' intent that if any term, provision or condition of the Covenants is
held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions
thereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated. Finally, it is also the parties' intent that if it is
determine any of the Covenants are unenforceable because of over breadth, then
the covenants shall be modified so as to make it reasonable and enforceable
under the prevailing circumstances.

               (f) Tolling. In the event of the breach by Executive of any
Covenant the running of the period of restriction shall be automatically tolled
and suspended for the amount of time that the breach continues, and shall
automatically recommence when the breach is remedied so that the Company shall
receive the benefit of Executive's compliance with the Covenants. This paragraph
shall not apply to any period for which the Company is awarded and receives
actual monetary damages for breach by the Executive of a Covenant with respect
to which this paragraph applies.
