assist in developing new business, new partnerships and evaluate
new technologies. This is a key position in our Company and you
will need to be committed to the building of our business.

     up to $65,000 house reimbursement expenses. ASD will pay

     $322,000 and is expected to sell for $285,000 less $18,000
     real estate expenses. If the selling price is higher than
     $285,000, the $65,000 will be reduced proportionately.
