7.       MISCELLANEOUS

                                        5

<PAGE>

7.01     Employee acknowledges that he is familiar with the Company an its
         business and that the restrictions contained in sections 5 and 6 hereof
         are reasonably required for the protection of the Company's legitimate
         business interests, and the restrictions do not impose undue hardship
         on the Employee or operate as a bar to his sole means of support.

7.02     Upon any breach or threatened breach of the restrictions contained in
         Sections 5 and 6 hereof, the parties recognize that damages or other
         remedies at law would be inadequate to protect the legitimate business
         interests of the Company and would cause the Company irreparable harm.
         Therefore, any court of competent jurisdiction may grant equitable
         relief such as restraining orders and preliminary or permanent
         injunctions o specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement and
         to protect the Company against any breach or threatened breach. If the
         Company is required by applicable law to furnish a bond or other surety
         as a condition of the entry of an injunction or restraining order,
         Employee agrees that such bond or surety shall be in the minimum amount
         required by law. This provision concerning injunctive relief shall not,
         however, diminish the right of the Company to claim and recover damages
         including an accounting for profits earned by Employee as a result of
         breach, in addition to injunctive relief. If the Company prevails in
         any litigation relating to this Agreement, the Company shall also be
         entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorney's fees.

7.03     Each of the Company's rights under this Agreement is separate and in
         addition to all other rights under applicable law. The Company may
         exercise and enforce one or more of those rights, as well as any other
         rights under the law, one at a time or all at once. Neither the waiver
         by the Company of any right in a specific instance, nor any delay or
         failure to act shall operate as a waiver of any right under this
         Agreement or prevent the future exercise or enforcement of the right.

7.04     The law of the State of Minnesota shall govern this Agreement in all
         respects. If any term of the Agreement conflicts with applicable law,
         all other terms of this Agreement shall remain in effect and
         enforceable. Further, if any provision is held to be over broad as
         written, such provisions shall be construed to narrow its application
         to the extent necessary to make the provisions enforceable according to
         applicable law, and shall be enforced as so amended. Employee
         acknowledges the uncertainty of the law in this respect and expressly
         stipulates that this Agreement be given the construction, which renders
         its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not
         exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law. Any Court
         is also authorized to extent the duration of any restriction under
         Section 6 for the period that any violation of Section 6 exists.

7.05     Any notice or communication required or permitted under this Agreement
         shall be deemed given if in writing and delivered personally or mailed
         by U.S. certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage
         prepaid, addressed to the party notified at the address stated below,
         or at such address as a party hereafter designates by notice.

7.06     The provisions of Sections 5,6,and 7 hereof shall surviv any
         termination of Employee's employment or this Agreement.

7.07     This Agreement contains the entire Agreement and all material
         representations between the parties relating to the subject matter
         hereof, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, and may e
         modified or amended only in a writing signed by all parties. All
         captions titles and masculine pronouns are for convenience only and may
         not be used to interpret or to define the terms of this Agreement.

7.08     This Agreement shall be binding upon Employee's heirs, personal
         representatives, and assigns, and may be transferred by the Company to
         its successors and assigns.

         By signing this Agreement, the parties agree to the above terms.

         conviction for any crime punishable as a felony or as a gross
         misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, which actions, in the judgment
         of the Company, have a material adverse effect upon Employee's ability
         to perform the duties which are assumed or assigned under Section 3
         hereof, or which actions or occurrences are materially adverse to the
         interests of the Company. Termination of Employee's employment for
         Cause under Subsection 5(a)(ii) above shall be effective upon notice.
         Termination of Employee's employment for Cause under Subsection 5(a)(i)
         shall be effective upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice provided
         that prior to the giving of such notice of termination, the Company
         shall notify Employee that a factual basis for termination for Cause
         exists and specify such basis.

         this Section 5, the Company shall have no further obligation to
         Employee under this Agreement, and Employee shall only be entitled to
         payment by the Company for all compensation accrued under this
         Agreement to such date of termination. However, such termination of
         Employee's employment shall not terminate or extinguish Employee's
         obligations under Sections 6, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14 and 15 (unless
         otherwise provided therein) or Employee's obligation or liability to
         pay to the Company any amounts owed to the Company by Employee,
         including, but not limited to, any amounts misappropriated or obtained
         by Employee, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the

         to be paid out over the six (6) months following Employee's date of
         termination in at least semi-monthly installments (hereinafter
         referenced as "Severance Allowance").

         Disclosure of Confidential Information.

         Employee Shall Not Disclose Confidential Information. Employee will

         Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation, association
         or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, without the prior
         written consent or authorization of a duly authorized officer of the
         Company.

         Scope. Employee's covenant in Subsection 6(a) to not disclose
         Confidential Information shall not apply to information which, at the
         time of such disclosure, may be obtained from sources outside of the
         Company, its agents, lawyers or accountants, so long as those sources
         did not receive the information directly or indirectly as the result of
         Employee's action.

         Title. All documents or other tangible or intangible property relating
         in any way to the Business of the Company which are conceived or
         generated by Employee or come into Employee's possession during the
         employment period shall be and remain the exclusive property of the
         Company, and Employee agrees to return all such documents, and tangible
         and intangible property, including, but not limited to, all records,
         manuals, books, blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda, notes,
         notebooks, lists reports, data, tables, magnetic tapes, computer disks,
         calculations or copies thereof, which are the property of the Company
         or which relate in any way to the Business, customers, products,
         practices or techniques of the Company, and all other property of the
         Company, including, but not limited to, all documents which in whole or
         in part

<PAGE>

         contain any Confidential Information of the Company which in any of
         these cases are in Employee's possession or under Employee's control,
         to the Company upon the termination of Employee's employment with the
         Company, or at such earlier time as the Company may request him to do
         so.

         Compelled Disclosure. In the event a third party seeks to compel
         disclosure of Confidential Information by Employee by judicial or
         administrative process, Employee shall notify the Board of Directors of
         the Company within two (2) business days of such occurrence and furnish
         to the Board of Directors a copy of the demand, summons, subpoena or
         other process served upon Employee to compel such disclosure, and will
         permit the Company to assume, at its expense, but with Employee's
         cooperation, defense of such disclosure demand. In the event that the
         Company refuses to contest such third party disclosure demand under
         judicial or administrative process, or a final judicial order is issued
         compelling disclosure of Confidential Information by Employee, Employee
         shall be entitled to disclose such information in compliance with the
         terms of such administrative or judicial process or order.

         Employee Acknowledgments.

         Employee recognizes that the Company is continually engaged in the
         design and development of Internet/Set Top Box, and related Technology
         and other technologies (hereinafter "Technology"), and that such
         Technology is kept in strict confidence by the Company. Employee is
         aware that the Technology is vital to the Company's success.

         Employee further understands that the success of the Company depends,
         to a great extent, on its ability to protect its Confidential
         Information, including that comprising the Technology, its manufacture
         and marketing, from unauthorized disclosure, use or publication.
         Inasmuch as Employee will gain knowledge of or have access to the
         Confidential Information about the Technology and its manufacture and
         marketing, in whole or in part, in the course of employment, Employee
         acknowledges that the Company is and will be entrusting Employee with
         this valuable information.

         Employee understands that the Company is engaged in a continuous
         program of research, development, production and marketing of its
         present and future products, and the enhancement of its Technology.
         Employee further understands that, as an essential part of Employee's
         employment by the Company, he will be integrally involved in the
         development and manufacture of the technology as such will have access
         to the Company's Confidential Information.

         Employee Representations and Warranties.

         Employee represents and warrants that performance of the terms of this
         Agreement as an employee of the Company does not and will not cause
         Employee to breach any agreement, commitment or understanding Employee
         has with any other party, whether formal or informal, to assign to such
         other party inventions Employee may hereafter make, or to keep in
         confidence proprietary information of such other party which Employee
         acquired or learned prior to Employee's employment by the Company.

         Employee represents and warrants that Employee has not brought and will
         not bring to the Company, or use for the benefit of the Company, any
         materials and/or documents of a former employer (which, for purposes of
         this Section, shall also include persons, firms, corporations and other
         entities for which Employee has acted as an independent contractor or
         consultant) that are not generally available to the public or to the
         trade, unless Employee has obtained written authorization from any such
         former employer permitting Employee to retain and use said materials
         and/or documents. With respect to any materials and/or documents that
         Employee may bring to the Company for use in the course of Employee's
         employment, Employee hereby further represents and warrants that
         Employee's use (or the Company's use) of such materials and/or
         documents will not violate the intellectual property rights of any
         former employer of Employee, or any other party.

         reduced to practice by Employee, either alone or jointly with others,
         during the period of Employee's employment, by the Company, or which
         are reduced to practice during the period of twelve (12) months
         following the termination of Employee's employment, that relate to or
         are useful in the present or future business of the Company; or (ii)
         which result from tasks assigned Employee by the Company, or from
         Employee's use of the premises or other resources owned, leased or
         contracted by the Company.

         Employee agrees that all such Inventions which the Company in its sole
         discretion determines to be related to or useful in its business or its
         research or development, or which result from work performed by
         Employee for the Company, shall be the sole and exclusive property of
         the Company and its assigns, and the Company and its assigns shall have
         the right to use and/or to apply for patents, copyrights or other
         statutory or common law protections for such Inventions in any and all
         countries. Employee further agrees to assist the Company in every
         proper way (but at the Company's expense) to obtain and from time to
         time enforce patents, copyrights and other statutory or common law
         protections for such Inventions in any and all countries. To that end,
         Employee will execute all documents for use in applying for and
         obtaining such patents, copyrights and other statutory or common law
         protections therefor and enforcing the same, as the Company may desire,
         together with any assignments thereof to the Company or to persons or
         entities designated by the Company. Employee's obligations under this
         Subsection shall continue beyond the termination of Employee's
         employment with the Company, but the Company shall compensate Employee
         at a reasonable rate after such termination for time actually spent by
         Employee at the Company's request in providing such assistance.

         Employee hereby acknowledges that all original works of authorship
         which are made by Employee (solely or jointly with others) within the
         scope of Employee's employment which are protectable by copyright are
         "works for hire," as that term is defined in the United States
         Copyright Act (17 USCA, Section 101).

         Assignment of Inventions.

         Any provision in this Agreement requiring Employee to assign Employee's
rights in any Invention to the Company shall not apply to any invention that is
exempt under the provisions of Section 181.78 of the Minnesota Statutes. The
statute states that such assignment agreements do not apply:

                  To an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility or
                  trade secret information of the employer was used and which
                  was developed entirely on the employee's own time, and (1)
                  which does not relate (a) directly to the business of the
                  employer or (b) to the employer's actual or demonstrably
                  anticipated research or development, or (2) which does not
                  result from any work performed by the employee for the
                  employer. (Emphasis added).

         Employee shall execute the Invention Assignment Notice attached here to
as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference.

         Power of Attorney.

         In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure
Employee's signature on any document needed to apply for, obtain or enforce any
intellectual property rights relating to any Invention with respect to which
Employee has made an inventive contribution, whether because of Employee's
unavailability, or Employee's physical or mental incapacity, or for any other
reason whatsoever, Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the
Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Employee's agents and

                                       6
<PAGE>

attorneys-in-fact to act for and in Employee's behalf and stead solely for and
in connection with the execution and filing of any such document with the same
legal force and effect as if such acts were performed by Employee.

         Pre-existing Proprietary Inventions.

         Employee has identified on Exhibit B attached hereto a complete list of
all inventions or improvements which have been made or conceived or first
reduced to practice by Employee alone or jointly with others prior to Employee's
employment by the Company and which Employee desires to exclude from the
operation of this Agreement. If there is no such list on Exhibit C, Employee
represents that Employee has made no such inventions or improvements at the time
of signing of this Agreement.

         Covenant Not to Compete - The parties agree that the Company would be
substantially harmed if Employee competes with the Company during employment
with the Company or after termination of employment with the Company. Employee
acknowledges this is particularly true here, as he is integrally involved in the
research and development of the Company's Technology and Technology
improvements. Therefore, in exchange for benefits provided to Employee
hereunder, Employee agrees that during his employment with the Company and for a
period of two (2) years after termination of such employment for any reason,
Employee will not directly or indirectly, without the written consent of the
Company:

         Render services to or for any Competing Organization or engage in any
         activity that competes with the Business of the Company or in any way
         assists any Competing Organization within any state in the United
         States or within any country in which the Company directly or
         indirectly markets or services products or provides services or
         reasonably intends such period to market or service products or provide
         services provided, however, that ownership of stock or other securities
         in a publicly held corporation, for which Employee's sole purpose is
         that of an investor, is not prohibited;

         During Employee's employment by the Company, Employee agrees not to
         plan or otherwise take any preliminary steps, either alone or in
         concert with others, to set up or engage in any business enterprise
         that would be in competition with the Company or to seek employment
         with a Competing Organization.

         In any way interfere or attempt to interfere with the Company's
         relationships with any of its current or potential customers;

         Hire, offer to hire, entice away, or in any other way persuade or
         attempt to persuade any employee, officer, agent, independent
         contractor, supplier, customer, or subcontractor of the Company to
         discontinue their relationship with the Company; and

         Vilify, criticize, or otherwise slander or defame the Business or
         business practices of the Company or its officers, directors, or
         employees.

Employee further agrees that he will, prior to accepting employment with any new
employer, inform that employer of his covenant not to compete and provide that
employer with a copy of this Agreement.

         Consideration - Employee acknowledges and agrees that in addition to
his continued employment with the Company, he has been offered and has
voluntarily accepted the following consideration for his agreements specified
herein:

         Compensation payable in such amount as set forth herein in Section 4;

         The grant of incentive stock options as set forth in Section 4(c)
         herein and as reflected in Exhibit A, attached hereto;

         The severance allowance as set forth herein in at Section 5(d); and

                                       7

         Access to the Company's Confidential Information.

         Communication with Subsequent Employer.

         Upon the termination of Employee's employment, Employee hereby
authorizes the Company to notify any other party, including without limitation,
Employee's future employers, future partners and customers of the Company, as to
the existence of this Agreement, and the existence of Employee's covenants and
responsibilities with respect to the confidential and proprietary information
entrusted to Employee hereunder.

         Breach of Restrictive Covenants.

         It is agreed that it would be difficult or impossible to ascertain the
         measure of damages to the Company resulting from any breach of Sections
         6, 9, 10, 11 or 13, and that injury to the Company from any such breach
         may be irremediable, and that money damages therefor may be an
         inadequate remedy. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by
         Employee of the provisions of any of such Sections, the Company shall
         be entitled to specific performance of such Sections and may seek a
         temporary or permanent injunction to enjoin Employee from breaching
         such Sections without the necessity of proof of damages, in addition to
         any other rights or remedies that the Company may have available under
         applicable law for such breach or threatened breach, including the
         recovery of damages.

         Survival of Restrictive Covenant. The provisions of Sections 6, 9, 10,
         11, 13, 14 and 15 of this Agreement shall continue to be binding upon
         Employee, notwithstanding the termination of employment with the
         Company for any reason whatsoever. Such covenants shall be deemed and
         construed as separate agreements independent of any other provisions of
         this Agreement. The existence of any claim or cause of action by
         Employee against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or
         otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the
         Company of any or all such Sections.

         Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement constitutes the full and
complete understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the
employment of Employee by the Company, and supersedes any prior understanding or
agreement between the parties relating thereto. No amendment, waiver or
modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding unless made in
writing and signed by the parties hereto.

         Assignment. The rights and benefits of the Company and its permitted
assigns under this Agreement shall be fully assignable and transferable to any
other entity (subject to that entities' assumption of the obligations
hereunder):

         which is an affiliate of the Company; or

         which is not an affiliate and with which the Company has merged or
         consolidated, or to which it may have sold substantially all its assets
         in a transaction in which it has assumed the liabilities of the Company
         under this Agreement;

and in the event of any such assignment or transfer, all covenants and
agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by or
against the successors and assigns of the Company. This Agreement is a personal
service contract and shall not be assignable by Employee, but all obligations
and agreements of Employee hereunder shall be binding upon and enforceable
against Employee and Employee's personal representatives, heirs, legatees and
devisees.

         Notices. To be effective, all notices, consents or other communications
required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing. A written notice or other
communication shall be deemed to have been given hereunder (i) if delivered by
hand, when the notifying party delivers such notice or other communication to
all other parties to this Agreement, (ii) if delivered by facsimile or overnight
delivery service, on the first business day following the date such notice or
other communication is transmitted by facsimile or timely delivered to the
overnight courier, or (iii) if delivered by mail, on the third business day
following the date such notice or other communication is deposited in the U.S.
mail by certified or

                                       8

communications shall be directed as follows unless written notice of a change of
address or facsimile number has been given in writing in accordance with this
Section:

         Waiver. No waiver of any term, condition or covenant of this Agreement
by a party shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breaches of the same
or other terms, covenants or conditions hereof by such party.

         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall
constitute one instrument.

         Construction. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective or valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision
or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

         Applicable Law. This Agreement, and the legal relations between the
parties, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the
State of Minnesota without regard to conflicts of law doctrines.

         Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
this Agreement, or its breach, shall be settled by final and binding arbitration
in Minneapolis, Minnesota upon the request of either party. Such arbitration
shall proceed in accordance with the then-governing rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") for Employment Dispute Resolutions or Commercial
Arbitration, at the option of the petitioner. Judgment upon the award rendered
may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. It is agreed
that the parties shall choose a single, neutral arbitration from among a panel
of not less then seven (7) proposed arbitrators and that the parties may have no
more than two (2) panels of arbitrators presented to them by the AAA. The
parties agree that they will share equally the fees of the arbitrator, and they
shall each be responsible for their own attorneys' fees and costs and any filing
fee paid by them unless the arbitrator determines that one party shall pay a
greater portion of such costs and fees and states the justification therefor.

         Representation by Counsel; Interpretation. The Company and Employee
each acknowledge that each party to this Agreement has been, or has had the
opportunity to be, represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement and
the matters contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any
legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in
this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is
expressly waived. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a
reasonable manner to effect the intent of the parties.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
date first above written.
