     (c)  Termination  for Cause or  Without  Good  Reason.  If  Employer  shall

                  NON-DISCLOSURE COVENANT; EMPLOYEE INVENTIONS

     Section 7.1 Acknowledgments by the Executive.  Executive  acknowledges that
(a) during the Term and as a part of his employment,  Executive will have access
to  Confidential  Information;   (b)  public  disclosure  of  such  Confidential
Information  could have an adverse effect on the Employer and its business;  (c)
because  Executive  possesses  substantial  technical  expertise  and skill with
respect to Employer's  business,  Employer desires to obtain exclusive ownership
of each Employee  Invention,  and Employer will be at a substantial  competitive
disadvantage if Employer fails to acquire  exclusive  ownership of each Employee
Invention;  and (d)  the  provisions  of this  Article  VII are  reasonable  and
necessary to prevent the improper use or disclosure of Confidential  Information
and to provide Employer with exclusive ownership of all Employee Inventions.

     Section  7.2  Agreements  of  the  Executive.   In   consideration  of  the
compensation  and  benefits  to be paid or  provided  to  Executive  by Employer
pursuant to this Agreement, Executive covenants as follows:

     (a) Confidentiality.

     (i)  During and following the Term,  Executive  will hold in confidence the
          Confidential  Information  and  will  not  disclose  the  Confidential
          Information,  or any portion thereof,  to any Person,  except with the
          specific  prior  written  consent of Employer  or except as  otherwise
          expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

     (ii) Any trade  secrets of Employer or its  affiliates  will be entitled to
          all of the protections and benefits pursuant to applicable law. If any
          information that Employer or its affiliates deems to be a trade secret
          is determined by a court of competent  jurisdiction


                                       6
<PAGE>


          not  to be a  trade  secret  for  purposes  of  this  Agreement,  such
          information will, nevertheless, be considered Confidential Information
          for  purposes  of  this   Agreement.   Executive   hereby  waives  any
          requirement  that Employer  submit proof of the economic  value of any
          trade secret or post a bond or other security.

    (iii) None of the  foregoing  obligations  and  restrictions  applies to any
          part of the Confidential  Information that Executive  demonstrates was
          or became generally  available to the public other than as a result of
          a direct or indirect disclosure by Executive.

     (iv) The  Executive  will not  remove  from the  Employer's  or  Employer's
          affiliates'  premises  (except  to  the  extent  such  removal  is for
          purposes of the performance of the Executive's duties at home or while
          traveling, or except as otherwise specifically authorized by Employer)
          any document,  record,  notebook,  plan, model, component,  device, or
          computer software or code,  whether embodied in a disk or in any other
          form (collectively,  the "Proprietary Items").  Executive agrees that,
          as between  Employer  and  Executive,  all of the  Proprietary  Items,
          whether or not developed by Executive,  are the exclusive  property of
          Employer.  Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, or upon
          the  request of  Employer  during the Term,  Executive  will return to
          Employer all of the  Proprietary  Items in  Executive's  possession or
          subject to  Executive's  control,  and Executive  shall not retain any
          copies,  abstracts,  sketches,  or other physical embodiment of any of
          the Proprietary Items.

     (b) Employee Inventions. Each Employee Invention will belong exclusively to
Employer. Executive covenants that Executive will promptly:

     (i)  disclose to Employer in writing any Employee Invention;

     (ii) assign to Employer or to a party designated by Employer, at Employer's
          request and without additional compensation,  all of Executive's right
          to the  Employee  Invention  for the  United  States  and all  foreign
          jurisdictions;

    (iii) execute and deliver to Employer such  applications,  assignments,  and
          other  documents  as  Employer  may  request in order to apply for and
          obtain  patents or other  registrations  with  respect to any Employee
          Invention in the United States and any foreign jurisdictions;

     (iv) sign all other papers  necessary  to carry out the above  obligations;
          and

     (v)  give  testimony  and  render  any  other   assistance  in  support  of
          Employer's rights to any Employee Invention.

     Section 7.3 Disputes or Controversies.  Executive  acknowledges that in the
event that a dispute or controversy resulting from or relating to this Agreement
be submitted for  adjudication to any court,  arbitration  panel, or other third
party,  the  preservation  of the  secrecy of  Confidential  Information  may be
jeopardized.  All pleadings,  documents,  testimony and records  relating to any

                                       7
<PAGE>


such  adjudication  will be  maintained  in secrecy  and will be  available  for
inspection by Employer,  Executive,  and their respective attorneys and experts,
who will  agree,  in advance and in writing,  to receive and  maintain  all such
information in secrecy, except as may be limited by them in writing.

                                  ARTICLE VIII.
                      NON-COMPETITION AND NON-INTERFERENCE

     Section 8.1 Acknowledgments by Executive.  Executive  acknowledges that (a)
the services to be performed by him pursuant to this Agreement are of a special,
unique,  unusual,  extraordinary,  and  intellectual  character;  (b) Employer's
business conducted  nationally and Employer's services and products are marketed
throughout the United States;  (c) Employer  competes with other businesses that
are or could be located in any part of the United States; and (d) the provisions
of this  Article VIII are  reasonable  and  necessary to protect the  Employer's
business.

     Section 8.2 Covenants of Executive. In consideration of the acknowledgments
by Executive,  and in  consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid
or provided to Executive by Employer,  Executive  covenants  that Executive will
not, directly or indirectly:

     (a) during the Term,  except in the course of his  employment  pursuant  to
this Agreement,  and during the Post-Agreement  Period,  directly or indirectly,
engage or invest in, own, manage, operate,  finance,  control, or participate in
the ownership, management,  operation, financing, or control of, be employed by,
associated  with, or in any manner  connected with, lend the Executive's name or
any similar name to, lend Executive's credit to or render services or advice to,
any business whose products,  services or activities compete in whole or in part
with the  products,  services or  activities of the Employer or any affiliate of
Employer anywhere in the United States;  provided,  however,  that the Executive
may purchase or otherwise  acquire up to (but not more than) three  percent (3%)
of any class of securities of any issuer (but without otherwise participating in
the activities of such issuer), if such securities are listed on any national or
regional  securities  exchange or have been registered pursuant to Section 12(g)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

     (b)  whether  for  Executive's  own account or for the account of any other
Person,  at any time  during  the Term and the  Post-Agreement  Period,  solicit
business of the same or similar type being carried on by the Employer,  from any
Person known by Executive to be a customer of Employer, whether or not Executive
had  personal  contact  with such  Person  during  and by reason of  Executive's
employment with Employer;

     (c) whether for Executive's  account or the account of any other Person (i)
at any time during the Term and the Post-Agreement Period,  solicit,  employ, or
otherwise  engage as an employee,  independent  contractor,  or  otherwise,  any
Person who is or was an  employee  of Employer at any time during the Term or in
any manner induce or attempt to induce any employee of Employer to terminate his
or her employment  relationship  with  Employer;  or (ii) at any time during the
Term and the Post-Agreement Period,  interfere with Employer's relationship with
any  Person,  including  any  Person  who at any  time  during  the  Term was an
employee, contractor, supplier, or customer of Employer; or

with the Employer, plus five (5) years.

     If any covenant in this Section 8.2 is  determined  by a court of competent
jurisdiction  to be  unreasonable,  arbitrary,  or against public  policy,  such
covenant  will be considered to be divisible  with respect to scope,  time,  and
geographic  area,  and such reduced scope,  time, or geographic  area, or all of
them, as a court of competent  jurisdiction may determine to be reasonable,  not
arbitrary,  and not against public policy,  will be effective,  obligatory,  and
enforceable against Executive.

     The period of time  applicable  to any covenant in this Section 8.2 will be
extended by the duration of any violation by Executive of such covenant.

     Executive  will,  while the  covenant  pursuant  to this  Section 8.2 is in
effect, give notice to Employer,  within ten (10) days after accepting any other
employment,  of the identity of Executive's  employer.  Employer may notify such
employer  that  Executive  is  obligated by this  Agreement  and, at  Employer's
election,  furnish  such  employer  with a copy of this  Agreement  or  relevant
portions thereof.

                                   ARTICLE IX.
                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

     Section 9.1 Injunctive Relief and Additional Remedy. Executive acknowledges
that the damage  that would be  suffered  by Employer as a result of a breach of
the  provisions of this  Agreement  (including any provision of Articles VII and
VIII) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Employer
for such a breach would be an  inadequate  remedy.  Consequently,  Employer will
have the right,  in addition to any other rights  Employer  may have,  to obtain
injunctive  relief to restrain any breach or  threatened  breach or otherwise to
specifically  enforce any provision of this Agreement,  and Employer will not be
obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief.

     Section  9.2   Covenants  of  Articles  VII  and  VIII  Are  Essential  and
Independent  Covenants.  The covenants by Executive in Articles VII and VIII are
essential  provisions of this Agreement,  and without  Executive's  agreement to
comply with such covenants,  Employer would not have entered into this Agreement
or employed or continued the  employment  of  Executive.  Employer and Executive
have  independently  consulted their respective counsel and have been advised in
all respects concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such covenants, with
specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by Employer.

     Executive's  covenants in Articles VII and VIII are  independent  covenants
and the  existence  of any claim by  Executive  against  Employer  or any of its
affiliates under this Agreement or otherwise will not excuse  Executive's breach
of any covenant in Articles VII or VIII.

     If  Executive's  employment  pursuant  to  this  Agreement  expires  or  is
terminated,  this  Agreement  will  continue  in full  force  and  effect  as is
necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants and agreements of Executive in
Articles VII and VIII.

     Section 9.3 Offset. Employer will be entitled to offset against any and all
amounts owing to Executive  pursuant to this Agreement the amount of any and all
claims that Employer may have against Executive.

     Section 9.4  Representations  and  Warranties by the  Executive.  Executive
represents and warrants to Employer that the execution and delivery by Executive
of this  Agreement do not,  and the  performance  by  Executive  of  Executive's
obligations  pursuant to this  Agreement will not, with or without the giving of
notice  or the  passage  of  time,  or both  (a)  violate  any  judgment,  writ,
injunction, or order of any court, arbitrator, or governmental agency applicable
to Executive; or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any provisions of or
the  termination  of, or  constitute  a default  under,  any  agreement to which
Executive is a party or by which Executive is or may be obligated.

     Section 9.4  Obligations  Contingent on  Performance.  The  obligations  of
Employer pursuant to this Agreement,  including Employer's obligation to pay the
compensation  provided for in this Agreement,  are contingent  upon  Executive's
performance of Executive's obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

     Section  9.5  Waiver.  The  rights  and  remedies  of the  parties  to this
Agreement are cumulative and not alternative.  Neither the failure nor any delay
by either party in exercising any right,  power,  or privilege  pursuant to this
Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right,  power,  or privilege,  and no
single or partial exercise of any such right,  power, or privilege will preclude
any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise
of any other right,  power,  or privilege.  To the maximum  extent  permitted by
applicable  law,  (a) no claim or right  resulting  from this  Agreement  can be
discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the
claim or right unless in writing  signed by the other party;  (b) no waiver that
may be given by a party will be applicable,  except in the specific instance for
which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to
be a waiver of any  obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving
such  notice or demand to take  additional  action  without  notice or demand as
provided in this Agreement.

     Section 9.6 Binding Effect; Delegation of Duties Prohibited. This Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of, and shall obligate,  the parties hereto and their
respective successors, assigns, heirs, and legal representatives,  including any
entity  with  which the  Employer  may merge or  consolidate  or to which all or
substantially all of its assets may be transferred.  The duties and covenants of
Executive pursuant to this Agreement are personal and may not be delegated.

     Section 9.7 Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications
pursuant  to this  Agreement  shall  be in  writing  or by  telex  or  facsimile
transmission  and shall be  deemed  to have  been duly  given (i) on the date of
