to take all  previously  planned  vacation  up to three paid  weeks plus  normal
vacation of four weeks for the remainder of the  Company's  2007 fiscal year and

amount as any other executive  officer of the Company may be entitled to in such
year.  If  Employee  attains  the age of 65 while  employed,  Company  will also
procure or reimburse Employee the reasonable cost of "Medigap" insurance.

WORK MADE FOR HIRE: Employee acknowledges that in the discharge of his duties he
will manage and  supervise  the work of engineers  who will develop new products
and concepts  for the Company  primarily  in the field of  automation.  Employee
therefore agrees that all intellectual property in all inventions, developments,
discoveries,  copyrightable  material,  trademarks and trade names  developed by
Employee in the field of automation  during the term of his employment  (whether
before or after  the  execution  of this  Agreement)  and all such  intellectual
property in any other field  conceived or developed  using Company  resources or
during Company business hours by Employee (whether before or after the execution
of this Agreement)  shall be considered  "works made for hire" by Employee,  and
all right,  title and  interest  in such  inventions  shall  belong to  Company.
Employee  agrees to and  hereby  does  irrevocably  assign to the  Company,  its
successors  and  assigns,  all  rights,  title  and  interest  in  and  to  such
intellectual  property to the extent  ownership does not  automatically  vest in
Company by operation of law. At any time  requested by Company,  Employee  shall
execute and deliver all such assignments and other  instruments of conveyance or
otherwise as Company may deem necessary or appropriate to effectuate,  record or
perfect Company's right, title and interest in such intellectual property.  This
assignment does not include Employee's ordinary experience gained while employed
by Company. This assignment is in addition to and not in derogation to any other
rights  Company may have under  statute or the common law,  including  Company's
shop right.

RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS:

         Confidential  Information.   Employee  acknowledges  that  the  Company
possesses  and he will have  access to and use on a  regular  basis  information
constituting  trade secrets under  applicable law. As to any such trade secrets,
Employee  covenants  and agrees (all of which  covenants  and  agreements  shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement) that during the term of
this  Agreement  and for three (3) years after its  expiration  or  termination,
Employee  shall  keep  confidential  and shall not use or  disclose  (except  as
necessary to discharge his duties  hereunder)  any such trade  secrets.  Without
limiting the foregoing,  trade secrets shall include any non-public  information
concerning the Company's products,  software,  designs,  customers,  prospective
customers,  research  and  development,  business  methods,  financial  results,
employees,  and business  strategies and plans, all of which are acknowledged to
give the Company a  commercial  advantage  in part because they are not publicly
known or readily available to others.
         No  Disparagement.  Employee  agrees  that  during  the  term  of  this
Agreement and for one year after its expiration or  termination  for any reason,
he will not take any action or make any  statement,  the natural  consequence of
which would be to  discredit  the  reputation  of the  Company,  its  employees,
products or services. If the Employee is terminated,  the Company agrees that it
will,  in the case of inquiries,  only provide dates of employment  and position
(s) held while working for the Company.
         Non-Compete.  During the term of his  Agreement and for a period of one
year after its expiration or termination  for any reason,  Employee shall not be
employed by, render  services to, own, advise or assist (whether as an employee,
officer,  director,  agent,  consultant or independent  contractor) any business
activity or entity located in the Restricted Territory,  which competes with the
Company.
         For purposes of this  Agreement,  a business shall be deemed to compete
with the Company if the business  activity which the Employee  primarily assists
is to provide (i) engineering or manufacturing  services,  including  consulting
services,  or (ii)  electronic  guidance,  navigation  or control  equipment  or
software,  in either event related to or consisting of the design,  manufacture,
installation  or use of  automated  guided  vehicles  for  ultimate use in North
America.  The phrase  "Restricted  Territory" shall mean the largest  territory,
which may be  judicially  enforced  of the  following:(a)  the  world;(b)  North
America;(c) the United States of America; and(c) the State of North Carolina.
         Non-Solicitation.  For as long as this Agreement is in effect and for a
period of one year  after its  expiration  or  termination,  Employee  shall not
solicit, induce, aid, or suggest or counsel any employees,  consultants to other
persons having  substantial  contractual  relationship with the Company to leave
such employment,  cease  counseling or terminate such contractual  relationships
with the Company.

TERMINATION:

         Death or Disability.  This Agreement shall  automatically  terminate in
the event of  Employee's  death.  The Company  shall have the right to terminate
this  Agreement  if Employee  becomes  permanently  and  totally  disabled or if
Employee  becomes  partially  disabled for a period  exceeding  twenty-four (24)
consecutive months.  Disability shall be as defined by the Company's  disability
insurance carrier, if any, or by the Company's applicable policies.
         Change of Control.  Employee  may  terminate  this  Agreement by giving
thirty  (30) days  written  notice to the  Company at any time within six months
after any of the following events:(i) the Company sells all or substantially all
of its  assets to a single  purchaser  or group of  associated  purchasers  in a
single transaction or series of related transactions;  (ii) at least fifty (50%)
of the outstanding voting shares of the Company are sold, exchanged or otherwise
disposed of in a single transaction or a series of related  transactions;  (iii)
the Company terminates its business or liquidates its assets; or (iv) there is a
merger or  consolidation  of the  Company in a single  transaction  or series of
related transactions  pursuant to which the Company's  shareholders receive less
than fifty  percent  (50%) of the  outstanding  voting  shares in the  surviving
corporation.
         Severance.  If a change of control  event  described  above  occurs and
Employee  elects to terminate  this  Agreement,  the Company shall pay severance
equal to twelve (12) months base salary  plus  Medigap  benefits  (if  otherwise
required  herein) in accordance with current labor laws.  Severance pay shall be
paid out in equal monthly payments for twelve (12) months.
         Early  Termination.  Company  may  at  any  time  terminate  Employee's
employment for cause by action of the Board of Directors.  Termination shall not
affect any  compensation  earned  prior to the  effective  date of  termination.
Employee may terminate his employment and this Agreement at any time.

ARBITRATION:  Any  claim  or  controversy  arising  out of or  related  to  this
Agreement,  or its  breach  (except  an action  seeking a  restraining  order or
injunction  for breach of any of the  Restrictive  Covenants),  shall be finally
settled by binding  arbitration  in the City of Charlotte,  North  Carolina,  in
accordance   with  the  then  governing   rules  of  the  American   Arbitration
Association, Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered and enforced in any
court  of  competent  jurisdiction.  This  Agreement  shall be  interpreted  and
construed  according  to the  laws  of  the  State  of  North  Carolina.  If the
Arbitration panel rules in favor of the Employee,  all costs for the arbitration
shall be borne by the Company.  If the  Arbitration  panel rules in favor of the
Company,  the costs for the arbitration  shall be shared between the two parties
on a 50/50 basis.  Each side shall, in any event, bear the cost of its own legal
counsel.
