                       BILL OF SALE AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

      This Bill of Sale and Release Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered
into by and between Neutral Posture Ergonomics, Inc. ("NPE" or the "Company")
and David W. Campbell ("Employee").

      WHEREAS, the Company has employed Employee as President;

      WHEREAS, Employee and the Company have agreed that Employee will cease his
employment with the Company;

      WHEREAS, NPE and Employee have agreed to resolve any and all potential
disputes, claims, or causes of action which have or may have arisen between them
and growing out of Employee's employment with the Company;

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following mutual promises,
payments and conditions contained in this Agreement, and effective on the eighth
day following Employee's execution of this Agreement ("Effective Date"), the
parties voluntarily agree as follows:

      1. SEVERANCE DATE. Employee's employment with NPE has ended as of May 15,
1999 ("Last Day Worked").

      2. SEVERANCE PAYMENT. The Company will pay Employee a sum in the aggregate
gross amount of $71,700, less applicable federal tax and social security

will be made to Employee in semi-monthly amounts payable on the fifteenth and
last day of each month beginning May 30, 1999 until December 31, 1999. This
Section 2 shall be deemed to amend and supercede all payment obligations under
the Employment Agreement, dated as of July 1, 1997, between NPE and Employee,
but does not in any way amend or change the obligations and rights under Article
2 and 3 of the Employment Agreement.

      3. BILL OF SALE. Employee hereby transfers, sells and assigns unto NPE (i)

NPE provided to Employee. The options and the shares of Common Stock owned by
Employee are being transferred and sold to the Company in consideration for
Employee's release. Employee acknowledges that he is not already entitled to
such payments and the right to transfer his options and shares of Common Stock
to the Company.

      4. MEDICAL AND DENTAL BENEFITS. Employee shall be covered under the
medical and dental plans in which Employee has elected to participate as of the
Last Day Worked until December 31, 1999.

<PAGE>
      After such time, the Company's health care program benefits will be
provided in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), and the terms of the Company's health care
program, as it may be amended form time to time. Employee may continue medical

rates. Full details of Employee's rights and obligations under COBRA will be
sent under separate cover.

      5. LIFE INSURANCE. Employee will continue to be covered by the Company's
supplemental life insurance policy until August 20, 1999. NPE shall pay 50% of

to continue beyond Employee's Last Day Worked shall cease on Employee's Last Day
Worked, unless provided otherwise in the relevant plan or policy or by law.

      8. COVENANT OF COOPERATION. Employee agrees to cooperate with NPE in any
litigation or administrative proceedings (E.G., EEOC charges) involving any
matters with which Employee was involved during Employee's employment with the
Company.

      9. RELEASE. In consideration of the above payments and agreements by NPE,
Employee forever and unconditionally releases and discharges NPE and any of its
parent or affiliate companies or divisions and each of their owners, directors,
officers, employees, assigns, representatives or agents ("Releasees") from any
and all claims, complaints, or causes of action relating to or arising out of
