Chairman.

     2.   Duties. The Employee will perform duties described in Exhibit "A,"
          ------
attached to this Agreement and incorporated by this reference, together with
such additional reasonably related duties assigned by the Chief Executive

     3.   Exclusive Service. Except with respect to the matters specified below,
          -----------------
Employee will devote substantially all his working time and efforts to the
business and affairs of the Company. The foregoing shall not, however, preclude
the Employee: (a) from engaging in appropriate civic, charitable or religious
activities; (b) from serving on the boards of directors of other entities, with
the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld;

          -----------------

          4.1  Initial Term. The Company agrees to continue the Employee's
               ------------
employment, and the Employee agrees to remain in the employ of the Company,

the Effective Date, unless the Employee's employment is earlier terminated
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

          4.2  Renewal. The term of this Agreement shall be extended
               -------
automatically, without further action of either party, as of three (3) years

day of the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, the Company or the
Employee shall notify the other in writing of its intention not to renew this
Agreement, in which case the Employee's employment shall terminate at the end of
the original term or any extension thereof. If either party notifies the other
of its intention not to renew this Agreement less than ninety (90) days prior to
the end of the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, then such
termination shall be effective ninety (90) days from such notice. No notice of
non-renewal may be given by either party after a renewal term has commenced. Any
such renewal shall be upon such terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the Employee. The
notice of non-renewal by either party shall in no way constitute a breach of
this Agreement.

          5.1  Base Salary. The Employee's initial base annual salary will be

additional bonus of 3% of the "Value" (as defined below) of any reorganization,
purchase of assets, merger or other form of acquisition or similar transaction

initiated by Employee or the Company or a third party. The bonus will be awarded
in the form of 50% in cash and 50% in shares of Common Stock of the Company
issued at 50% of the price per share for which the Value was determined so as to
give effect to the restricted nature of such shares of Common Stock. The Company

products, systems, programs, projects and know-how, pricing, cost of providing
service and equipment, operating and maintenance costs, marketing and selling
techniques and information, customer data, customer names and addresses,
customer service requirements, supplier lists, and confidential information
relating to theCompany's policies, employees, and/or business strategy (all of
such information herein referenced to as the "Confidential Information"). The
Employee recognizes that the business of the Company is dependent upon
Confidential Information and that the protection of the Confidential Information
against unauthorized disclosure or use is of critical importance to the Company.
The Employee agrees that, without prior written authorization of the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, the Employee will not, during his employment,
divulge to any person, directly or indirectly, except to the Company or its
officers and agents or as reasonably required in connection with the Employee's
duties on behalf of the Company, or make independent use of, except on behalf of
the Company, any of the Company's Confidential Information, whether acquired by
the Employee during his employment or not. The Employee further agrees that the
Employee will not, at any time after his employment has ended, use or divulge to
any person directly or indirectly any Confidential Information, or use any
Confidential Information in subsequent employment of any nature. If the Employee
is subpoenaed, or is otherwise required by law to testify concerning
Confidential Information, the Employee agrees to notify the Company upon receipt
of a subpoena, or upon belief that such testimony shall be required. This
nondisclosure provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any
reason. The Employee acknowledges that the Company would not employ the Employee
but for his covenants and promises contained in this Section 8.

     9.   Return of Documents. The Employee agrees that if the Employee's
          -------------------
relationship with the Company is terminated (for whatever reason), the Employee
shall not remove or take with the Employee, but will leave with the Company or
return to Company, all Confidential Information, records, files, data,
memoranda, reports, customer lists, customer information, product information,
price lists, documents and other information, in whatever form (including

                                       7
<PAGE>

on computer disk), and any and all copies thereof, or if such items are not on
the premises of the Company, the Employee agrees to return such items
immediately upon the Employee's termination or the request of the Company. The
Employee acknowledges that all such items are and remain the property of the
Company.

     10.  No Interference or Solicitation. The Employee agrees that during his
          --------------------------------
employment, and for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of
his employment (for whatever reason), that neither he nor any individual,
partner(s), limited partnership, corporation or other entity or business with
which he is in any way affiliated, including, without limitation, any partner,
limited partner, director, officer, shareholder, employee, or agent of any such
entity or business, will: (i) request, induce or attempt to influence, directly
or indirectly, any employee of the Company to terminate their employment with
the Company; or (ii) employ any person who as of the date of this Agreement was,
or after such date is or was, an employee of the Company. The Employee further
agrees that during the period beginning with the commencement of the Employee's
engagement with the Company and ending twelve (12) months after the termination
of the Employee's employment with the Company (for whatever reason), he shall
not, directly or indirectly, as an employee, agent, consultant, stockholder,
director, partner or in any other individual or representative capacity of the
Company or of any other person, entity or business, solicit or encourage any
present or future customer, supplier, contractor, partner or investor of the
Company to terminate or otherwise alter his, his or its relationship with the
Company. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any
reason.

     11.  Non-Competition. In consideration of the numerous mutual promises
          ----------------
contained in the Agreement between the Company and the Employee, including,
without limitation, those involving Confidential Information, and in order to
protect the Company's Confidential Information and to reduce the likelihood of
irreparable damage which would occur in the event such information is provided
to or used by a competitor of the Company, the Employee agrees that during his
employment and for an additional period of six (6) months immediately following
the termination by the Company of his employment for Cause or by Employee
voluntarily terminating his employment, (the "Non-Competition Term"), not to,
directly or indirectly, either through any form of ownership or as a director,
officer, principal, agent, employee, employer, adviser, consultant, shareholder,
partner, or in any individual or representative capacity whatsoever, without the
prior written consent of the Company (which consent may be withheld in its sole
discretion): (i) compete for or solicit business related to "Application Service
Provider Services," then presently being offered by the Company to, for or on
behalf of any person or business entity with a place of business in the United
States or Canada; (ii) own, operate, participate in, undertake any employment
with or have any interest in any entity with a place of business in the United
States or Canada in the business of marketing and selling of Application Service
Provider Services to persons or business entities, except owning publicly traded
stock for investment purposes only in which the Employee owns less than 5%;
(iii) compete for or solicit application service provider services business from
any customer of the Company (or its successors by merger); or (iv) use in any
competition, solicitation, or marketing effort any Confidential Information, any
proprietary list, any information concerning customers of the Company.
"Application Service Provided Services" shall mean providing a combination of
software applications, Web hosting and access and telecommunication integration
through the Company's server based computing model.

                                       8
<PAGE>

     If, during any period within the Non-Competition Term, the Employee is not
in compliance with the terms of this Section 11, the Company shall be entitled
to, among other remedies, compliance by the Employee with the terms of this
Section 11 for an additional period equal to the period of such noncompliance.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Non-Competition Term" shall also
include this additional period. The Employee hereby acknowledges that the
geographic boundaries, scope of prohibited activities and the time duration of
the provisions of this Section 11 are reasonable and are no broader than are
necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company.

     This non-competition provision shall survive the termination of the
Employee's employment and can only be revoked or modified by a writing signed by
the parties which specifically states an intent to revoke or modify this
provision. The Employee acknowledges that the Company would not employ him but
for his covenants or promises contained in this Section 11.

     12.  Reformation of Section 11. The Company and the Employee agree and
          --------------------------
stipulate that the agreements and covenants not to compete contained in Section
11 hereof are fair and reasonable in light of all of the facts and circumstances
of the relationship between the Employee and the Company; however, the Employee
and the Company are aware that in certain circumstances courts have refused to
enforce certain agreements not to compete. Therefore, in furtherance of, and not
in derogation of the provisions of Section 11, the Company and the Employee
agree that in the event a court should decline to enforce the provisions of
Section 11, that Section 11 shall be deemed to be modified or reformed to
restrict the Employee's competition with the Company or its affiliates to the
maximum extent, as to time, geography and business scope, which the court shall
find enforceable; provided, however, in no event shall the provisions of Section
11 be deemed to be more restrictive to the Employee than those contained
herein.

     13.  Injunctive Relief. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
          ------------------
agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement are essential to protect
the Confidential Information, business, and goodwill of the Company. The
Employee further acknowledges that the breach of any of the agreements contained
herein, including, without limitation, the confidentiality covenants specified
in Section 8, the non-solicitation covenants specified in Section 10, and the
non-competition covenants contained in Section 11, will give rise to irreparable
injury to the Company, inadequately compensable in damages. Accordingly, the
Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent or cure breaches or
threatened breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specific
performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent
jurisdiction, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies which may be
available. The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of the
termination of the Employee's employment with the Company, whether voluntary or
involuntary, that the enforcement of a remedy hereunder by way of injunction
shall not prevent the Employee from earning a reasonable livelihood. The
Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained herein are

          -------------

               --------------------------------------------------
agrees to indemnify and defend the Employee to the full extent provided by
Delaware law, and on terms no less favorable than any indemnification agreement

or officer of the Company. The Company agrees to reimburse Employee upon demand
for any costs incurred in requesting or obtaining indemnification under this
paragraph.

          14.2 Arbitration. The Employee and the Company shall submit to
               -----------
mandatory binding arbitration to held in Pierce County, Washington, in any
controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or any
breach hereof. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the
commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect
at that time, and judgment upon the determination or award rendered by the
arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The
arbitrator is hereby authorized to award to the prevailing party the costs
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of any such arbitration.

          14.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be found
               ------------
by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable, then the parties hereby waive such provision to the extent that
it is found to be invalid or unenforceable and to the extent that to do so would
not deprive one of the parties of the substantial benefit of its bargain. Such
provision shall, to the extent allowable by law and the preceding sentence, be
modified by such arbitrator or court so that it becomes enforceable and, as
modified, shall be enforced as any other provision hereof, all the other
provisions continuing in full force and effect.

          14.4 No Waiver. The failure by either party at any time to require
               ---------
performance or compliance by the other of any of its obligations or agreements
shall in no way affect the right to require such performance or compliance at
any time thereafter. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision
hereof shall not be taken or held to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding
breach of such provision or as a waiver of the provision itself. No waiver of
any kind shall be effective or binding, unless it is in writing and is signed by
the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced.

          14.5 Assignment. This Agreement and all rights hereunder are personal
               ----------
to the Employee and may not be transferred or assigned by the Employee at any
time. The Company may assign its rights, together with its obligations
hereunder, to any parent, subsidiary, affiliate or successor, or in connection
with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of its
business and assets, provided, however, that any such assignee assumes the
Company's obligations hereunder.

          14.6 Withholding. All sums payable to the Employee hereunder shall be
               -----------
reduced by all federal, state, local and other withholding and similar taxes and
payments required by applicable law.
