6.1.1 Habitual neglect, gross negligence or malfeasance in the performance of
the duties required of Cheung as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors
which continues uncorrected for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof by Tengtu to Comadex; or

<PAGE>

6.1.2 Consultant's confession or conviction of theft, fraud, embezzlement, or
any other crime involving dishonesty with respect to Tengtu.

If this Agreement is terminated by Tengtu for cause, then Comadex shall be
entitled to receive the Base Compensation and any incentive compensation owed by
Tengtu through the effective date of such termination.

6.2
Termination Upon Death or Disability. This Agreement shall terminate upon
Cheung's death or disability (as defined herein). For this purpose "disability"
means incapacity, whether by reason of physical or mental illness or disability,
which prevents Cheung from substantially performing his material duties as CEO
and Chairman of the Board for six (6) months, or for shorter periods aggregating
six (6) months during the term of this Agreement. Termination for death shall
become effective upon the occurrence of such event and termination for
disability shall become effective upon written notice to Comadex.

6.3
Events Upon Termination. The termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections
6.1 and 6.2 shall also result in the termination of all rights and benefits of
Comadex under this Agreement, except for any rights to compensation accrued
under Section 3 prior to the date of termination or rights to expense
reimbursement under Section 4, and except as provided by law.

6.4
Payments Upon Termination Without Cause. In the event Tengtu elects to terminate
this Agreement prior to the scheduled termination date for any reason other than
Cause, Tengtu shall continue to make all payments and provide all benefits due
under this Agreement for the full remaining term of this Agreement as if there
had been no termination, or $150,000, whichever is greater. Such payments shall
be deemed to be liquidated damages for the damage done to Comadex' and Cheung's
reputation and for having foregone the opportunity to pursue other employment
opportunities while performing services pursuant to this Agreement. Comadex
hereby agrees that such amount shall constitute a realistic and reasonable
valuation of the damages with respect to Consultant's claims.

6.5
Merger or Acquisition of Tengtu.
In the event that Tengtu is merged into another company, or another company
acquires more than fifty percent (50%) of Tengtu's outstanding voting stock, or
the right to acquire more than fifty percent (50%) of Tengtu's outstanding
voting stock, this Agreement shall terminate and all compensation due Comadex
under Section 3.2 as if Comadex performed under this Agreement until November
30, 2004, and any amounts owed Comadex under Section 3.3 shall be payable within
thirty (30) days of the closing of such merger or acquisition. In addition, in
the event of a merger, any Tengtu stock options held by Comadex or Cheung shall
have a new five year period, beginning on the date of closing of the merger,
within which to exercise those stock options to obtain comparable stock in the
successor company.

7. RESIGNATION. In the event that Comadex resigns or terminates this Agreement
with Tengtu, Comadex shall be entitled to no further payments or other benefits
under this Agreement, other than any accrued Base Compensation through the date
of resignation or voluntary termination.

8.
COMADEX' REPRESENTATIONS. Comadex represents and warrants that Comadex has the
power to enter into this Agreement and to perform each of the provisions
contained herein. Comadex represents and warrants that Comadex is not restricted
