shareholders. Employee understands that applicable federal securities laws
impose significant restrictions concerning the use or disclosure of certain
non-public information in general and in buying or selling, or disclosing with

access to material information concerning Company which is not generally
available to members of the general public. Employee understands that Employee
is subject to these restrictions. During and after Employee's employment,

<PAGE>


Employee agrees that Employee will not at any time disclose, to any person or
entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, nor use for Employee's own personal
benefit or the benefit of any person or entity, any information concerning the
financial or business or other operations of the Company that is not publicly
known, provided that this restriction shall not apply to information required to
be disclosed under applicable laws, regulation, court order or subpoena to which
Employee is subject. Upon the termination of the Employee's employment under
this Agreement for any reason, the Employee hereby agrees to return to Company
all data and information relating to the business of Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates that Employee obtained during or prior to the time of
Employee's employment. It is expressly agreed that the terms and conditions of
this Section 8 shall apply after any termination, whether voluntary or
involuntary, of Employee's employment under this Agreement.

     9. Alternative Dispute Resolution: Employee agrees that any and all
disputes that Employee has with Company, or any of Company's employees, which
arise out of Employee's employment or under the terms of this Agreement shall be
resolved through final and binding arbitration, as specified herein. This shall
include, without limitation, disputes relating to this Agreement, Employee's
employment with Company or the termination thereof, claims for breach of
contract or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and any
claims of discrimination or other claims under any federal, state or local law
or regulation now in existence or hereinafter enacted and as amended from time
to time concerning in any way the subject of Employee's employment with Company
or its termination. The only claims not covered by this Section 9. are wage
claims, claims for benefits under the workers' compensation laws or claims for
unemployment insurance benefits, which will be resolved pursuant to those laws.
Binding arbitration will be conducted in either Arapahoe, Denver or Jefferson
County, Colorado in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American
Arbitration Association Employment Dispute Resolution Rules. Each Party will
split the cost of the arbitration filing and hearing fees, and the cost of the
arbitrator. The arbitrator also will determine whether each Party will pay its
own attorneys' fees or whether one Party will pay all or part of the other
Party's attorneys' fees. Employee understands and agrees that the arbitration
shall be instead of any civil litigation and that the arbitrator's decision
shall be final and binding to the fullest extent permitted by law and
enforceable by any court having jurisdiction thereof. Employee further
represents that he is making a voluntary and knowing waiver of his right to
pursue any and all employment-related claims in court.

     10. Non-Compete: Employee acknowledges and recognizes the highly
competitive nature of Company's business and that Employee's duties hereunder
justify reasonably restricting Employee's future employment activities following
any termination of employment with Company. Employee agrees that while Employee
is employed with Company, and for a period of two years following termination of
employment with Company, Employee will not reveal any proprietary or trade
secret information regarding Company that is not already available to the
public.
