the Executive can demonstrate that such information was or became generally
available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the
Executive).

                  (d) Ownership of Developments. All copyrights, patents, trade
secrets, or other intellectual property rights associated with any ideas,
concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, or works of authorship developed or
created by Executive during the course of performing work for Employer or its
customers (collectively, the "Work Product") shall belong exclusively to
Employer and shall, to the extent possible, be considered a work made by the
Executive for hire for Employer within the meaning of Title 17 of the United
States Code. To the extent the Work Product may not be considered work made by
the Executive for hire for Employer, the Executive agrees to assign, and
automatically assign at the time of creation of the Work Product, without any
requirement of further consideration, any right, title, or interest the
Executive may have in such Work Product. Upon the request of Employer, the

                  (g) Acknowledgment by Executive. The Executive acknowledges
and confirms that (i) the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 6 are
reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interest of Employer
including the legitimate interests of the Company, and (ii) the restrictions
contained in this Section 6 (including without limitation the length of the term
of the provisions of this Section 6) are not overbroad, over long, or unfair and
are not the result of overreaching, duress or coercion of any kind. The
Executive further acknowledges and confirms that her full, uninhibited and
faithful observance of each of the covenants contained in this Section 6 will
not cause her any undue hardship, financial, or otherwise, and that enforcement
of each of the covenants contained herein will not impair her ability to obtain
employment commensurate with her abilities and on terms fully acceptable to her
or otherwise to obtain income required for the comfortable support of her and
her family and the satisfaction of the needs of her creditors. The Executive
acknowledges and confirms that her special knowledge of the business of the
Company is such as would cause Employer serious injury or loss if she were to
use such ability and knowledge to the benefit of a competitor or were to compete
with the Company in violation of the terms of this Section 6. The Executive
further acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6 are
intended to be, and shall be, for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by,
Employer's successors and assigns.

                  (h) Reformation by Court. In the event that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Section 6 is
invalid or more restrictive than permitted under the governing law of such
jurisdiction, then only as to enforcement of this Section 6 within the
jurisdiction of such court, such provision shall be interpreted and enforced as
if it provided for the maximum restriction permitted under such governing law.

                  (i) Extension of Time. If the Executive shall be in violation
of any provision of this Section 6 then each time limitation set forth in this
Section 6 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time
during which such violation or violations occur. If Employer seeks injunctive
relief from such violation in any court, then the covenants set forth in this
Section 6 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such
proceeding including all appeals by the Executive.

                  (j) Survival. The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive
the termination of this Agreement, as applicable.

         7. Death. The Term shall terminate upon the death of the Executive and
be of no further force or effect. Upon such termination, Employer will pay the
Executive's estate a lump sum equal to the sum of (A) the product of one-twelfth
of the Annual Base Salary at the date of termination multiplied by the number of
months including fractions thereof remaining in the Term, and (B) the product of
one-twelfth of the Performance Bonus multiplied by the number of months
remaining in the Term. Employer reserves the right to provide this amount
through a policy of insurance on the life of the Executive.


                                     - 6 -

         8. Disability. If during the Term Executive is unable to perform her
services, by reason of illness or incapacity, for a period of 180 consecutive
days or more, Employer may, at its option, upon written notice to Executive,
terminate the Term and her employment hereunder. If the Term is terminated as a
result of the Executive's disability, Employer will pay the Executive the
product of one-twelfth of her Annual Base Salary at the date of termination for
the period remaining in the Term, to be distributed in periodic installments
according to Employer's customary payroll practices, and a lump sum equal to the
product of one-twelfth of the Performance Bonus multiplied by the number of
months remaining in the Term, to be paid at the time of such termination.
Employer shall also continue to pay the premiums for the same or substantially
similar Welfare Benefits for the remainder of the Term. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Executive shall find other employment during the period she is
receiving payments pursuant to this Section 8, then the Executive shall promptly
notify Employer in writing of the date and terms of such employment and Employer
shall be entitled to reduce the amount payable to the Executive pursuant to this
Section 8 during the period from the commencement of such other employment by
the cash compensation received and to be received by the Executive for services
rendered in connection with such other employment. Employer reserves the right
to provide this benefit through a policy of insurance.

         9.       Termination for Cause.

                  (a) Employer shall have the right to terminate the Term and
the Executive's employment hereunder for Cause (as defined below). Upon any
termination pursuant to this Section 9, Employer shall pay to the Executive any
unpaid Annual Base Salary through the effective date of termination specified in
such notice. Employer shall have no further liability hereunder (other than for
reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of
termination, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)).

                  (b) For purposes hereof, the term "Cause" shall mean the
Executive's conviction of a felony, the Executive's personal dishonesty directly
affecting the Company; willful misconduct or gross negligence (which shall
require prior written notice to the Executive from the CEO unless not curable or
such misconduct or gross negligence is injurious to Employer); breach of a
fiduciary duty involving personal profit to the Executive; or intentional
failure to substantially perform her duties after written notice to the
Executive from the CEO that, in the reasonable judgment of the CEO, the
Executive has failed to perform specific duties.

         10. Termination Without Cause. At any time Employer shall have the
right to terminate the Term and the Executive's employment hereunder by written
notice to the Executive. Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 10 (that
is not a termination under any of Sections 7, 8, 11 or 12), Employer shall pay
to the Executive a lump sum equal to the sum of (A) the product of one-twelfth
of the Annual Base Salary at the date of termination multiplied by the number of
months remaining in the Term, and (B) the

                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>   8
product of one-twelfth of the Performance Bonus multiplied by the number of
months remaining in the Term. Employer shall also continue to pay the premiums
for the same or substantially similar Welfare Benefits and the Executive shall
be entitled to the other benefits set forth in Section 5(b), (c) and (d) for the
remainder of the Term. In the event such entitlement is not allowed by law, the
Executive shall be entitled to the cash equivalent of that benefit. The Company
shall have no further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement for
reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject,
however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)). The Executive shall be entitled to
receive all severance payments and benefits hereunder regardless of any future
employment undertaken by the Executive as long as she is in full compliance with
the terms of this Agreement.

         11.      Termination by Executive.

                  (a) The Executive shall at all times have the right, upon 30
days written notice to Employer, to terminate the Term and her employment
hereunder.

                  (b) Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 11 by the
Executive without Good Reason (as defined below), Employer shall pay to the
Executive any unpaid Annual Base Salary through the effective date of
termination specified in such notice. Employer shall have no further liability
hereunder (other than for reimbursement for reasonable business expenses
incurred prior to the date of termination, subject, however, to the provisions
of Section 5(a)). The Executive shall be entitled to receive all severance
payments and benefits hereunder regardless of any future employment undertaken
by the Executive as long as she is in full compliance with the terms of this
Agreement.

                  (c) Upon any termination pursuant to this Section 11 by the
Executive for Good Reason, Employer shall pay to the Executive the same amounts
that would have been payable by Employer to the Executive under Section 10 of
this Agreement if the Executive's employment had been terminated by Employer
without Cause. Employer shall have no further liability hereunder (other than
for reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of
termination, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 5(a)).

                  (d) For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean
(A) the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 12 hereof) in
Employer during the Term and (B) prior to the earlier of the expiration of the
Term and one (1) year after the date of the Change in Control, the Term and
Executive's employment with Employer is terminated by Employer without Cause, as
defined in Section 9(b) (and other than pursuant to Section 7 by reason of the
Executive's death or Section 8 by reason of the Executive's disability) or the
Executive terminates the Term and her employment as a result of (i) the
assignment to the Executive of duties which are materially inconsistent with or
substantially lesser in responsibility and scope than those usually performed by
a Vice President of the Company, excluding for this purpose an isolated,
insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is
remedied by Employer promptly

                                     - 8 -

after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive; or (ii) the failure by
Employer to comply with any of the material provisions of Section 4 of this
Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not
occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by Employer promptly after receipt
of notice thereof given by the Executive.

                  12.      Change in Control.

                  (a) For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Change in
Control" shall mean:

                           (i) Approval by the stockholders of Employer of (x) a
         reorganization, merger, consolidation or other form of corporate
         transaction or series of transactions, in each case, with respect to
         which persons who were the stockholders of Employer immediately prior
         to such reorganization, merger or consolidation or other transaction do
         not, immediately thereafter, own more than 50% of the combined voting
         power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the
         reorganized, merged or consolidated company's then outstanding voting
         securities, or (y) a liquidation or dissolution of Employer or (z) the
         sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Employer (unless such
         reorganization, merger, consolidation or other corporate transaction,
         liquidation, dissolution or sale is subsequently abandoned); or

                           (ii) Individuals who constitute the Board of
         Directors of the Company (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason
         to constitute at least a majority of the Incumbent Board, provided that
         any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof, whose
         election, or nomination for election by stockholders, was approved by a
         vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the
         Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual
         whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or
         threatened election contest relating to the election of the directors,
         as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated
         under the Securities Exchange Act) shall be, for purposes of this
         Agreement, considered as though such person were a member of the

                           (iii) The acquisition (other than from Employer) by
         any person, entity or "group," within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3)
         or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act (excluding, for this
         purpose, Employer or its subsidiaries, or any executive benefit plan of
         Employer or its subsidiaries) which acquires beneficial ownership
         (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities
         Exchange Act), of 20% or more of either the then outstanding shares of
         the Company or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
         securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of
         the applicable entity.

                  (b) The payments made pursuant to the provisions of Section 11
as a result of a termination by the Executive for the Good Reason described in
Section 11(d) above shall be in lieu of any and all compensation due to
Executive for the years that would otherwise be remaining in the Term. Upon
receipt of said lump sum payment, this Agreement and all rights and duties of
the parties shall be terminated, except as follows. In consideration for such
lump sum payment and for the right to terminate under the conditions set forth
above, Executive agrees to consult with Employer (or its successors), and its
officers if requested to do so for a period of at least one (1) year from the
date of such termination. However, Executive shall be required to devote only
such part of her time to such services as Executive believes reasonable in
Executive's sole discretion, including not interfering with Executive's
employment, and the time and date such services are offered shall be determined
by Executive so long as that time and date is within a reasonable period of time
after the request. It is expressly agreed that the Company's rights to avail
itself of the advice and consultation services of Executive shall at all times
be exercised in a reasonable manner, that adequate notice shall be given to
Executive in such events, and that non-compliance with any such request by
Executive for good reason, including, but not limited to, ill health or prior
commitments, shall not constitute a breach or violation of this Agreement.
Executive agrees that, except for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses
incurred by her with respect to such consultation and advisory services, payable
as such consultation and advisory services are rendered, she shall not be
entitled to any further compensation. It is understood that in furnishing any
advisory and consulting services provided herein, Executive shall not be an
executive of Employer but shall act in the capacity of independent contractor.

         13. Waivers. It is understood that either party may waive the strict
performance of any covenant or agreement made herein; however, any waiver made
by a party hereto must be duly made in writing in order to be considered a
waiver, and the waiver of one covenant or agreement shall not be considered a
waiver of any other covenant or agreement unless specifically in writing as
aforementioned.

         14. Savings Provisions. The invalidity, in whole or in part, of any
covenant or restriction, or any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or
word, or other provisions of this Agreement, as the same may be amended from
time to time shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions thereof.

         15. Governing Law. The Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to its
choice of law provisions.

         16. Notices. If either party desires to give notice to the other in
connection with any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, said notice

after the IPO/Spin-off, at the Parent Company's or Company's then principal
executive offices):

                  If to Employer:   Michael P. Hoopis
                                    Water Pik Technologies, Inc.
                                    23 Corporate Plaza
                                    Suite 246

                  If to Executive:  At the most recent home address of the
                                    Executive on the official
                                    records of the Employer

         17. Default. In the event either party defaults in the performance of
its obligations under this Agreement, the non-defaulting party may, after giving
30 days notice to the defaulting party to provide a reasonable opportunity to
cure such default, proceed to protect its rights by suit in equity, action at
law, or, where specifically provided for herein, by arbitration, to enforce
performance under this Agreement or to recover damages for breach thereof,
including all costs and attorneys' fees, whether settled out of court,
arbitrated, or tried (at both trial and appellate levels).

         18. Section 162(m) Limits. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if and to the extent that any remuneration payable by Employer to the
Executive for any year would exceed the maximum amount of such remuneration that
Employer may deduct for that year by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code,
payment of the portion of the remuneration for that year that would not be so
deductible under Section 162(m) shall, in the sole discretion of the Board, be
deferred so that it shall become payable at such time or times as the Board
reasonably determines that it would be deductible by Employer under Section
162(m), with interest at the "short-term applicable federal rate" as such term
is defined in Section 1274(d) of the Code.

         19. No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing expressed or implied in this
Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person
other than Employer, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, legal representatives, successors and assigns, any rights or
remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

         20. Waiver of Jury Trial. ALL PARTIES KNOWINGLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO
REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION IN ANY COURT OF LAW, TRIBUNAL OR LEGAL
PROCEEDING INVOLVING THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.

         21.      Successors.
