            will not be entitled to any additional remuneration whatsoever for
            his work with the exception of that specifically set out in this

      Parent Company.

      exceeding shall not be transferred to such Fund but shall be added to the
      Salary.

3.3   Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party,
      other than in circumstances constituting Cause (as defined below), the

4.1   Maintenance of Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that
      in the course of employment hereunder the Executive will, either directly
      or indirectly, have access to and be entrusted with information (whether
      oral, written or by inspection) relating to the Company or its Parent
      Company or their respective affiliates, associates or customers (the
      "Confidential Information"). For the purposes of this Agreement,
      "Confidential Information" includes, without limitation, any and all
      Developments (as defined herein), trade secrets, inventions, innovations,

      copyrightable or uncopyrightable or patentable or unpatentable. The
      Executive acknowledges that the Confidential Information constitutes a
      proprietary right, which the Company is entitled to protect. Accordingly
      the Executive covenants and agrees that during the Term and thereafter
      until such time as all the Confidential Information becomes publicly known
      and made generally available through no action or inaction of the
      Executive, the Executive will keep in strict confidence the Confidential
      Information and shall not, without prior written consent of the Company,
      disclose, use or otherwise disseminate the Confidential Information,
      directly or indirectly, to any third party.

4.2   Exceptions. The general prohibition contained in Section 4.1 against the
      unauthorized disclosure, use or dissemination of the Confidential
      Information shall not apply in respect of any Confidential Information
      that:

      (a)   is available to the public generally in the form disclosed;

      (b)   becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the Executive;

      (c)   is already in the lawful possession of the Executive at the time of
            receipt of the Confidential Information; or

      (d)   is compelled by applicable law to be disclosed, provided that the
            Executive gives the Company prompt written notice of such
            requirement prior to such disclosure and provides assistance in
            obtaining an order protecting the Confidential Information from
            public disclosure.

4.3   Developments. Any information, technology, technical data or any other
      thing or documentation whatsoever which the Executive, either by himself
      or in conjunction with any third party, has conceived, made, developed,
      acquired or acquired knowledge of during the Executive's employment with
      the Company or which the Executive, either by himself or in conjunction
      with any third party, shall conceive, make, develop, acquire or acquire
      knowledge of (collectively the "Developments") during the Term or at any
      time thereafter during which the Executive is employed by the Company that
      is related to conducting research and clinical study shall automatically

<PAGE>

      form part of the Confidential Information and shall become and remain the
      sole and exclusive property of the Company. Accordingly, the Executive
      does hereby irrevocably, exclusively and absolutely assign, transfer and
      convey to the Company in perpetuity all worldwide right, title and
      interest in and to any and all Developments and other rights of whatsoever
      nature and kind in or arising from or pertaining to all such Developments
      created or produced by the Executive during the course of performing this
      Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to effect any
      registration in the world to protect the foregoing rights. The Company
      shall have the sole, absolute and unlimited right throughout the world,
      therefore, to protect the Developments by patent, copyright, industrial
      design, trademark or otherwise and to make, have made, use, reconstruct,
      repair, modify, reproduce, publish, distribute and sell the Developments,
      in whole or in part, or combine the Developments with any other matter, or
      not use the Developments at all, as the Company sees fit.

4.4   Protection of Developments. The Executive does hereby agree that, both
      before and after the termination of this Agreement, the Executive shall
      perform such further acts and execute and deliver such further
      instruments, writings, documents and assurances (including, without
      limitation, specific assignments and other documentation which may be
      required anywhere in the world to register evidence of ownership of the
      rights assigned pursuant hereto) as the Company shall reasonably require
      in order to give full effect to the true intent and purpose of the
      assignment made under Section 4.3 hereof. If the Company is for any reason
      unable, after reasonable effort, to secure execution by the Executive on
      documents needed to effect any registration or to apply for or prosecute
      any right or protection relating to the Developments, the Executive hereby
      designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and
      agents as the Executive's agent and attorney to act for and in the
      Executive's behalf and stead to execute and file any such document and do
      all other lawfully permitted acts necessary or advisable in the opinion of
      the Company to effect such registration or to apply for or prosecute such
      right or protection, with the same legal force and effect as if executed
      by the Executive.

4.5   Fiduciary Obligation. The Executive declares that the Executive's
      relationship to the Company is that of fiduciary, and the Executive agrees
      to act towards the Company and otherwise behave as a fiduciary of the
      Company.

4.6   Remedies. The parties to this Agreement recognize that any violation or
      threatened violation by the Executive of any of the provisions contained
      in this Article 4. will result in immediate and irreparable damage to the
      Company and that the Company could not adequately be compensated for such
      damage by monetary award alone. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that in
      the event of any such violation or threatened violation, the Company
      shall, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company at law
      or in equity, be entitled as a matter of right to apply to such relief by
      way of restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction and to such
      other relief as any court of competent jurisdiction may deem just and
      proper.

<PAGE>

4.7   Reasonable Restrictions. The Executive agrees that all restrictions in
      this Article 4 are reasonable and valid, and all defenses to the strict
      enforcement thereof by the Company are hereby waived by the Executive.

                                    ARTICLE 5
                                 NON-COMPETITION

5.1   Non Competition. Executive agrees and undertakes that he will not, so long
      as he is employed by the Company and for a period of 12 months following
      termination of his employment for whatever reason, directly or indirectly,
      as owner, partner, joint venture, stockholder, employee, broker, agent,
      principal, corporate officer, director, licensor or in any other capacity
      whatever engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by, or
      have any connection with any business or venture that competes with the
      Company's business, including any business which, when this Agreement
      terminates, the Company contemplates in good faith to be materially
      engaged in within 12 months thereafter, provided that the Company has
      taken demonstrable actions to promote such engagement or that the
      Company's Board of Directors has adopted a resolution authorizing such
      actions prior to the date of termination; provided, however, that
      Executive may own securities of any corporation which is engaged in such
      business and is publicly owned and traded but in an amount not to exceed
      at any one time one percent (1%) of any class of stock or securities of
      such company, so long as he has no active role in the publicly owned and
      traded company as director, employee, consultant or otherwise.

5.2   No Solicitation. Executive agrees and undertakes that during the period of
      his employment and for a period of 12 months following termination, he
      will not, directly or indirectly, including personally or in any business
      in which he is an officer, director or shareholder, for any purpose or in
      any place, employ any person (as an employee or consultant) employed by
      the Company at such time or during the preceding twelve months, unless
      such person has been terminated by the Company, provided however, that
      such person who is terminated by the Company may be employed by Executive
      as described above only after the expiration of twelve months after the
      effective date of such termination.

                                    ARTICLE 6
                                   TERMINATION

6.1   Termination For Cause or Disability. This Agreement may be terminated at
      any time by the Company without notice, for Cause or in the event of the

      shall have:

      (a)   committed an intentional act of fraud, embezzlement or theft in
            connection with the Executive's duties or in the course of the
            Executive's employment with the Company;

            Company;

      (f)   fundamentally breached any of the Executive's material covenants
            contained in this Agreement; or

            specifying in reasonable detail the alleged failure or refusal and
            after a reasonable opportunity for the Executive to cure the alleged
            failure or refusal.

      For the purposes of this Agreement, an act or omission on the part of the
      Executive shall not be deemed "intentional," if it was due to an error in
      judgment or negligence, but shall be deemed "intentional" if done by the
      Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the act or
      omission was in the best interests of the Company, or its respective
      affiliates, associates or customers.

      six (6) months in any twelve (12) month period. Disability shall occur
      upon the end of such six-month period.

6.2   Severance for Termination With Cause. If the Company terminates the
      Executive's employment for Cause, then the Company will not be obligated

      terminate the Executive's employment without Cause, for any reason

      engagement and with 90 days prior written notice thereafter.

6.4   The Notice Period.

      (a)   During the period following the notice of termination (the "Notice
            Period"), Executive shall cooperate with the Company and use his
            best efforts to assist the integration into the Company's
            organization of the person or persons who will assume Executive's
            responsibilities.

      (b)   This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the end
            of the Notice Period and there shall be no change in Executive's
            compensation terms or any of his obligations hereunder during such
            Notice period.

<PAGE>

      (c)   Notwithstanding sub-section (b) above, during the Notice Period the
            Company may, at its discretion, relieve Executive of his position,
            upon which Executive shall leave the Company. Such actions shall not
            derogate in any way or manner whatsoever from Executive's rights to
            receive the Salary until the end of the Notice period.

6.5   Limitation of Damages. It is agreed that in the event of termination of
      employment, neither the Company, nor the Executive shall be entitled to
      any notice, or payment in excess of that specified in this Article 6.

6.6   Return of Materials. Within three (3) days of any termination of
      employment hereunder, or upon any request by the Company at any time, the
      Executive will return or cause to be returned any and all Confidential

      copies thereof), which "assets" include, without limitation, hardware,
      software, keys, security cards and backup tapes that were provided to the
      Executive either for the purpose of performing the employment services
      hereunder or for any other reason. The Executive acknowledges that the
      Confidential Information and the assets are proprietary to the Company,
      and the Executive agrees to return them to the Company in the same
      condition as the Executive received such Confidential Information and
      assets.

      in full force and effect after termination of this Agreement, for any

      void. The parties hereto agree that they have expressed herein their

      matter or operation provided for herein.

9.2   Personal Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement are in lieu of the
      provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, and therefore, no

      relationship between the parties hereto (subject to the applicable
      provisions of law).

9.3   Further Assurances. Each party hereto will promptly and duly execute and

      binding upon the Executive and the Company and their permitted successors
      or assigns. Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended to confer on
      any person other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations
      or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

      shall be declared invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court or other
      lawful authority of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed

      provision of this Agreement, which shall continue to have full force and
      effect.
