<PAGE>

         (a)      a tender or exchange offer for at least 20% of the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company is consummated;

         (b)      the shareholders of the Company approve an agreement to merge
or consolidate the Company into another corporation or to sell all or
substantially all of the assets or adopt a plan of liquidation;

         (c)      any person, group or entity becomes the beneficial owner of at
least 20% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company in a transaction which
has not been approved in advance by the Board of Directors;

         (d)      the directors at the beginning of any two year period cease to
constitute a majority at any time during such two year period, other than by
reason of death or retirement.

However, in no event shall a Change of Control Date be deemed to have occurred
if the Board, by written action taken prior to, and with respect to, an event
otherwise constituting a Change of Control Date, determines that such event
shall not constitute a Change of Control Date for purposes of this Agreement.

         5.       TERM OF OPTION. The Option shall terminate ten years from the
date of this Agreement, but shall be subject to earlier termination as provided
herein or in the Plan.

         (a)      VOLUNTARY TERMINATION OR TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE.

         If the Employee ceases to be an employee of the Company or of an
Affiliate (for any reason other than death or Disability or termination of the
Employee for cause), the Option may be exercised within three (3) months after
the date the Employee ceases to be an employee or, if earlier, the date upon
which the Option terminates, as originally prescribed by this Agreement. In such
event, the Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that the right to
purchase shares under the Plan has vested and accrued and is in effect at the
date of such cessation of employment.

         (b)      TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.

         In the event the Employee's employment is terminated by the Company (or
an Affiliate) for "cause" (as defined in the Plan), the Employee's right to
exercise any unexercised portion of this Option shall cease immediately, and
this Option shall thereupon terminate.

         (c)      DISABILITY.

         In the event of the Disability of the Employee (as determined by the
Administrator, as defined in the Plan), the Option shall be exercisable within
one year after the date of such Disability or the date upon which the Option
terminates as originally prescribed by this Agreement, whichever is earlier. In
such event, the Option shall be exercisable to the extent that the right to
purchase the Shares hereunder has accrued on the date the Employee becomes
Disabled and is in effect as of such determination date.

         (d)      DEATH.

         In the event of the death of the Employee while an employee of the
Company or of an Affiliate, the Option, to the extent exercisable but not
exercised as of the date of death, may be exercised by the Employee's legal
representatives or any person who acquired the Employee's rights to the Option
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In such event, the Option
must be exercised, if at all, within two years after the date of death of the
Employee or, if earlier, the date upon which the Option terminates, as
originally prescribed by this Agreement.

         6.       NON-ASSIGNABILITY. The Option shall not be transferable by the
Employee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and
shall be exercisable, during the Employee's lifetime, only by the Employee or
his or her guardian or legal representative. The Option shall not be assigned,
pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise)
and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any
attempted transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of
the Option or of any rights granted hereunder contrary to the provisions of this
paragraph 5, or the levy of any attachment or similar process upon the Option or
such rights, shall be null and void.

         7.       EXERCISE OF OPTION AND ISSUE OF SHARES. The Option may be
exercised in whole or in part (to the extent that it is exercisable in
accordance with its terms) by giving written notice to the Company, together
with the tender of the Option price. Such written notice shall be signed by the
person exercising the Option, shall state the number of Shares with respect to
which the Option is being exercised, shall contain any representation required
by paragraph 7 below and shall otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement and the Plan. The Company shall pay all transfer or original
issue taxes with respect to the issue of the Shares pursuant hereto and all
other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection
herewith. Except as specifically set forth herein, the holder acknowledges that
any income or other taxes due from him or her with respect to this Option or the
shares issuable pursuant to this Option shall be the responsibility of the
holder and that the Company may, in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code,
require the holder to pay additional withholding taxes in respect of the amount
that is considered compensation includable in such holders' gross income. The
holder of this Option shall have rights as a shareholder only with respect to
any Shares covered by the Option after due exercise of the Option and tender of
the full exercise price for the shares being purchased pursuant to such
exercise.

         8.       PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT. Unless the offering and sale of the
Shares to be issued upon the particular exercise of the Option shall have been
effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any
successor legislation (the "Act"), the Company shall be under no obligation to
issue the Shares covered by such exercise unless and until the following
conditions have been fulfilled.

         The person(s) who exercise the Option shall represent to the Company,
at the time of such exercise, that such person(s) are acquiring such Shares for
his or her own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in
connection with, the distribution of any such Shares, in which event the
person(s) acquiring such Shares shall be bound by the provisions of the
following legend which shall be endorsed upon the certificate(s) evidencing
their option Shares issued pursuant to such exercise;

                  "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN
                  ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
                  FEDERAL SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES
                  LAWS OF ANY STATE. WITHOUT SUCH REGISTRATION, SUCH SECURITIES
                  MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE
                  TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT UPON DELIVERY TO THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION
                  OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS
                  NOT REQUIRED FOR SUCH TRANSFER OR THE SUBMISSION TO THE
                  COMPANY OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY BE SATISFACTORY TO THE
                  COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY SUCH TRANSFER SHALL NOT BE IN
                  VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR
                  APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR ANY RULE OR REGULATION
                  PROMULGATED THEREUNDER."

                                       3

         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company may delay
issuance of the Shares until completion of any action or obtaining of any
consent, which the Company deems necessary under any applicable law (including
without limitation state securities or "blue sky" laws).

         9.       EMPLOYEE COVENANTS.

         (a)      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Employee acknowledges that the
information, observations and data obtained by Employee while employed by the
Company (including those obtained by him while employed at the Company prior to
the date of this Agreement) concerning the business or affairs of the Company
("Confidential Information") are the property of the Company. Therefore,
Employee agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for
his own account any Confidential Information, unless and to the extent that the
aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the
public other than as a result of Employee's acts or omissions to act. Employee
shall deliver to the Company at the termination of employment, or at any other
time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and
other documents (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information or
the business of the Company which he may then possess or have under his control.

         (b)      INVENTIONS AND PATENTS.

                  (i)      Employee agrees that all inventions, innovations,
improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, and
all similar or related information which relates to the Company's actual or
anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or
services and which are conceived, developed or made by Employee while employed
by the Company ("Work Product") belong to the Company. Employee will promptly
disclose such Work Product to the President and perform all actions reasonably
requested by the President to establish and confirm such ownership.

                  (ii)     Employee is hereby advised that Section 8(b)(i) of
this Agreement regarding the Company's ownership of intellectual property does
not apply to any invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities or trade
secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on
Employee's own time, unless (i) the invention relates to the business of the
Company or to the Company's actual or demonstrably anticipated research or
development or (ii) the invention results from any work performed by Employee of
the Company.

         (c)      NON-COMPETE, NON-SOLICITATION.

                  (i)      Employee acknowledges that in the course of his
employment with the Company he will become familiar, and during his employment
with the Company he has become familiar, with the Company's trade secrets and
with other confidential information concerning the Company and that his services
will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. Therefore,
Employee agrees that, during employment and for eighteen months thereafter, he
shall not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate in, consult
with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any business competing
with the business of the Company in the United States or any foreign country
where the Company is authorized to do business. For purposes of this Agreement,
a business shall be deemed competitive if it is a restaurant, sandwich shop or
food service operation offering principal menu entrees or items which are the
same or confusingly similar to those than offered at any Schlotzsky's restaurant
or outlet worldwide. Nothing herein shall prohibit Employee from being a passive
owner of not more than 5% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation
which is publicly traded, so long as Employee has no active participation in the
business of such corporation.

                                       4
<PAGE>

                  (ii)     During employment, Employee shall not (i) induce or
attempt to induce any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company
or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company and any
employee thereof, (ii) hire directly or through another entity any person who
was an employee of the Company at any time during employment or (iii) induce or
attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of
the Company to cease doing business with the Company or in any way interfere
with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business
relation and the Company.

         (d)      FULL-TIME. If Employee is employed full-time by the Company
(and is not a consultant or other independent contractor), Employee agrees to
devote his best efforts and his full business time and attention (except for
permitted vacations, holidays and reasonable periods of illness or incapacity)
to the business and affairs of the Company. Prior to rendering service to a
third party for compensation, Employee shall seek written consent from an
officer of the Company. Such consent may be withheld in the sole judgment of
such officer.

         (e)      NON-DISPARAGEMENT AND NON-DEFAMATION; NO UNAUTHORIZED
STATEMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES. Employee shall not make any oral or written
statements disparaging or defaming Company, its policies or programs, or its
past or present officers, directors or employees. In addition, Employee shall
not make any oral or written statements to third parties (including, but not
limited to, the general public via postings on the internet, the press,
financial analysts, auditors, institutional investors, franchisees, vendors or
suppliers) which are: (i) not authorized by Company regarding Company, its past
or present officers, directors, or employees, or Company's Confidential
Information, and (ii) not required by operation of law.

         (f)      ENFORCEMENT. If, at the time of enforcement of paragraphs 8
(a), (b), (c), (d), or (e) of this Agreement, a court holds that the
restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing,
the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area
reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period,
scope or area. Because Employee's services are unique and because Employee has
access to Confidential Information and Work Product, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or assigns
may, in addition to other rights and remedies at law or in equity [including,
but not limited to, those remedies in Section 9(g) of this Agreement and the
recovery of attorneys' fees and costs] existing in their favor, apply to any
court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunction or other
relief at law or in equity in order to enforce or remedy, or prevent any
violations of, the provisions hereof.

         (g)      FORFEITURE FOR DETRIMENTAL ACTIVITY. If at any time during
employment with the Company or any affiliate, or within one year after
termination of such employment, the Company in its discretion determines that
the optionee has engaged in any "detrimental activity" (as hereinafter defined),
upon demand by the Company the optionee shall forfeit and return to the Company
(1) such optionee's right to exercise any and all options granted to him under
the Plan, whether or not vested or exercisable, and (2) all shares of stock
acquired pursuant to the exercise of options granted to such optionee under the
Plan. If the Company suspects that the optionee has engaged in any detrimental
activity, the exercisability of such optionee's options shall be suspended for
as long as the Company deems necessary to permit the investigation of such
allegation. For purposes of this Paragraph, "detrimental activity" shall mean
any activity that is determined by the Company in its sole and absolute
discretion to be detrimental to the interests of the Company or any of its
affiliates, including, but not limited to, a determination that such optionee
has without the written consent of the Company: (i) breached or violated this
Agreement or any other employment-related agreement between optionee and the
Company or an affiliate; (ii) breached or violated any other written agreement
or release of claims between optionee and the Company or an affiliate; (iii)
violated a written policy of the Company or an affiliate; (iv) improperly used
or disclosed, either during or subsequent to such optionee's employment with the
Company and its affiliates, any proprietary or confidential information of the
Company or any affiliate; (v) been convicted of, or has entered a guilty plea
with respect to, any misdemeanor or felony crime, whether or not connected with
the Company or any affiliate; (vi) entered into employment with a

                                       5
<PAGE>

competitor of the Company or any affiliate of the Company under circumstances
suggesting that such optionee will be using unique or special knowledge gained
as a Company (or Company affiliate) employee to compete with the Company or any
Company affiliate; (vii) solicited or attempted to solicit employees from the
Company or any affiliate; (viii) used information obtained during the course of
his prior employment for his own purposes, such as for the solicitation of
business; (ix) been determined to have engaged in either gross misconduct or
criminal activity harmful to the Company or any Company affiliate; or (x) taken
any action that harms the business interests, reputation, or goodwill of the
Company or any Company affiliate. The provisions of this Section 9(f) shall not
apply after the occurrence of a Change of Control Date.

         10.      NOTICES. Any notices required or permitted by the terms of
this Agreement or the Plan shall be given by personal delivery or registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

         11.      GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced
in accordance with the internal laws, and not the laws of conflict, of the State

with no contractual right to be retained in employment by, or as a consultant
to, the Company or its subsidiaries for any period of time.

         13.      SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are severable,
and if any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that finding shall in no
way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement. Any such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be deemed
to be automatically modified, and, as so modified, to be included in this
Agreement, such modification being made to the minimum extent necessary to
render the provision valid, legal and enforceable. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, if the severed or modified provision concerns all of a
portion of the essential consideration to be delivered under this Agreement by
one party to the other, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall also be
modified to the extent necessary to equitably adjust the parties' respective
rights and obligations hereunder.

         TO BE EFFECTIVE as of the date first written above.

materially breaches, violates or fails to comply with any one or more of the
provisions of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, those provisions of
Section 4 herein).

         (d)      TERMINATION BY COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE. Subject to the
provisions of Section 3(e), if Company terminates the employment of Employee
without Cause (as defined in the preceding paragraph) at any time during the
term of this Agreement, then Employee shall receive a severance benefit equal to
six (6) months of Employee's then current salary in exchange for a full and
final release by Employee of all claims which might be asserted by or on behalf
of Employee against Company, its affiliated companies, and each of their
officers, directors, agents, and employees (collectively "Parties To Be
Released") related to Employee's employment, separation from employment, and
relationship with Parties To Be Released through date of Employee's termination.
Such release shall not include those claims which cannot be waived by law.
Severance pay required pursuant to this Section shall be payable in the manner
and time in which Employee would have been regularly paid such salary. Company
shall pay such severance less usual withholding for taxes, FICA, and other
standard deductions. Employee shall remain fully responsible for all payments of
federal and state taxes resulting from the receipt of such severance.

         (e)      TERMINATION BY COMPANY OR EMPLOYEE AFTER CHANGE OF CONTROL
DATE. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(f), if a Change of Control Date (as
defined below) occurs at any time during the term of this Agreement, and either
Company terminates employment of Employee with or without cause within six (6)
months after the Change in Control Date or Employee terminates employment of
Employee due to a Change in Circumstances (as defined below) within six (6)
months after the Change in Control Date, then Employee shall receive a severance
benefit equal to twelve (12) months of Employee's then current salary in
exchange for a full and final release by Employee of all claims which might be
asserted by or on behalf of Employee against Company, its affiliated companies,
and each of their officers, directors, agents, and employees (collectively
"Parties To Be Released") related to Employee's employment, separation from
employment, and relationship with Parties To Be Released through date of
Employee's termination. Such release shall not include those claims which cannot
be waived by law. Severance pay required pursuant to this Section shall be

                                       2

payable in the manner and time in which Employee would have been regularly paid
such salary. Company shall pay such severance less usual withholding for taxes,
FICA, and other standard deductions. Employee shall remain fully responsible for
all payments of federal and state taxes resulting from the receipt of such
severance. This Section 4(e) shall apply regardless whether the date of such
termination falls outside the Term of this Agreement.

         A "CHANGE OF CONTROL DATE" shall be deemed to have occurred on the date
on which one or more of the following events occurs:

                  (1)      A tender offer or exchange offer for at least 20% of
the outstanding Common Stock of Company is consummated;

                  (2)      The shareholders of Company approve an agreement to
merge or consolidate Company into another corporation or entity or to sell all
of substantially all of the assets or adopt a plan of liquidation;

                  (3)      Any person, group or entity becomes the beneficial
owner of at least 20% of the outstanding Common Stock of Company in a
transaction which has not been approved in advance by the Board of Directors of
Company;

                  (4)      The directors on the Board of Directors of Company at
the beginning of any two year period cease to constitute a majority at any time
during such two year period, other than by reason of death or retirement.

However, in no event shall a Change of Control Date be deemed to have occurred
if the Board of Directors of Company as constituted prior to the event(s)
constituting a Change of Control Date, by written action taken prior to, and
with respect to, an event otherwise constituting a Change of Control Date,
determines that such even shall not constitute a Change of Control Date for
purposes of this Agreement.

         A "CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES" shall be deemed to be one or more of the
following:

                  (1)      A change in the nature or scope of the authority,
powers, functions or duties related to Employee's most recent position prior to
the Change of Control Date (as defined above), a change in the location of
Employee's principal office which is not acceptable to Employee, a twenty
percent (20%) or greater change in the amount of Employee's travel for Company
prior to the Change of Control Date, or any reduction in Employee's compensation
after the Change of Control Date; in each event which is not remedied within
thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Employee to Company;

                  (2)      Breach by Company of any of its obligations to
Employee under this Agreement which is not remedied within 30 days after written
notice thereof from Employee to Company; or

                  (3)      After the Change of Control Date (as defined above),
Employee has made a good faith determination that Employee's position has been
significantly affected by the underlying event(s) giving rise to the Change of
Control Date, that Employee is unable to carry out Employee's authority, powers,
and duties of Employee's most recent position prior to the Change of Control
Date, and that Company has not remedied the situation within thirty (30) days of
written notice of such determination from Employee to Company.

         (f)      EXCISE TAX ON TOTAL PAYMENTS.

                  (i)      REDUCTION OF TOTAL PAYMENTS. At Employee's election
by written notice to Company, if any payment received or to be received by
Employee whether payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other
plan, arrangement, or agreement with Company (including, but not limited to,
stock option agreements), any person whose actions result in a Change of Control
Date or other change of control of Company, or any person affiliated with
Company or such person (the "Total Payments"), would be subject to the excise
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended ("IRC
Section 4999"), the Total Payments, beginning with any payment due under this
Agreement, will be reduced until no portion of the Total Payments is subject to
the excise tax imposed by IRC Section 4999. Company shall make the initial
determination as to whether any of the Total Payments would be subject to the
excise tax under IRC Section 4999 utilizing any professionals selected by
Company and agreeable to Employee. Employee shall notify Company in writing of
any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require
Employee to pay any excise tax under IRC Section 4999, and if Employee has
elected to reduce Total Payments as described under this Section 3(f), Employee
shall promptly refund any of the Total Payments Employee received that would
cause the imposition of such tax.

                  (ii)     EMPLOYEE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TAXES. Employee shall
remain fully responsible for all excise taxes imposed by IRC Section 4999 and
all other payments of federal and states taxes resulting from the receipt of the
Total Payments.

4.       EMPLOYEE COVENANTS.

         (a)      NON-DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.
Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has acquired and, during the Term
of this Agreement, will acquire the use of Company's confidential, Proprietary
Information as defined herein. Employee acknowledges that Company's Proprietary
Information is a unique and valuable asset of Company and that any disclosure of
the Proprietary Information by Employee at any time after the Effective Date,
including after the Term of this Agreement and/or after the term of Employee's
employment, could gravely affect Company's ability to successfully conduct its
business and cause Company to suffer irreparable injury. Therefore, after the
Effective Date, during the Term of this Agreement and/or after the expiration or
termination date of this Agreement, Employee hereby agrees to preserve and hold
in confidence the Proprietary Information, not to use the Proprietary
Information in any way, directly or indirectly, and to avoid disclosure of the
Proprietary Information to any person or entity of any kind without the express
written consent of Company, except as such disclosure may be necessary to
accomplish Employee's duties set forth in this Agreement.

         For purposes of this Agreement, "PROPRIETARY INFORMATION" shall mean
(i) the names of any of Company's suppliers or customers and any information
related thereto; (ii) any information considered confidential by Company and any
information concerning Company's business including, but not limited to,
information about Company's operations, plans, processes, management, etc.;
(iii) Company's trade secrets, including any information or material, not
generally known in the industry in which Company is engaged whether developed by
Employee or by other employees of Company; (iv) existing, pending or anticipated
contractual arrangements; and (v) the salaries and capabilities of Company's
employees; provided, however, that Proprietary Information shall not include
information which is in the public domain by action of Company or any other
person entitled to release such information.

         (c)      DELIVERY OF RECORDS AND PROPERTY. Upon termination of
Employee's employment with Company, Employee shall promptly return all records,
files, documents, materials and copies relating to Company or its business and
any other property (including computer equipment) belonging to Company.

         (d)      NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-INTERFERENCE. During the period
Employee receives any severance benefits under this Agreement, Employee agrees
not to: (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Company to leave the
employ of Company; (ii) hire directly or through another entity any person who
was an employee of Company; (iii) in any way interfere with the relationship
between Company and any employee thereof; or (iv) induce or attempt to induce
any customer, supplier, franchisee, licensee or other business relation of
Company to cease doing business with

                                       4
<PAGE>

Company or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer,
supplier, franchisee, licensee or business relation and Company.

         (e)      NON-DISPARAGEMENT AND NON-DEFAMATION; NO UNAUTHORIZED
STATEMENTS TO THIRD PARTIES. Employee shall not make any oral or written
statements disparaging or defaming Company, its policies or programs, or its
past or present officers, directors or employees. In addition, Employee shall
not make any oral or written statements to third parties (including, but not
limited to, the general public via postings on the internet, the press,
financial analysts, auditors, institutional investors, franchisees, vendors or
suppliers) which are: (i) not authorized by Company regarding Company, its
policies or programs, its past or present officers, directors, or employees, or
Company's Proprietary Information [as defined in Section 4(a) of this
Agreement], and (ii) not required by operation of law.

         (f)      REMEDIES. If Employee violates any of the provisions set forth
in Section 4 of this Agreement, Employee acknowledges and agrees that Company
will suffer immediate and irreparable harm. Consequently, Employee acknowledges
and agrees that Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief, either
by temporary or permanent injunction, to prevent such a violation, and entitled
to any other available remedies both at law and in equity, including, but not
limited to, the recovery of damages and to the recovery of reasonable attorneys'
fees and costs related Company's enforcement and prosecution of its rights and
remedies as to Employee's violation(s).

5.       MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a)      SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are severable,
and if any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that finding shall in no
way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement. Any such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be deemed
to be automatically modified, and, as so modified, to be included in this
Agreement, such modification being made to the minimum extent necessary to
render the provision valid, legal and enforceable.

         (b)      WRITTEN AGREEMENT. All previous oral agreements regarding the

         (d)      SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. Each of the parties submits to the
jurisdiction of any state or federal court or administrative agency in Travis
County, Texas, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may
be heard and determined in any such court or agency. Each party also agrees not
to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement
in any other county. Each of the parties waives any defense of inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any
bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other party with
respect thereto. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any action or
proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law or equity.

         (e)      LEGAL CONSULTATION. The parties acknowledge and agree that
both parties have been accorded a reasonable opportunity to review this
Agreement with legal counsel prior to executing the agreement and that every
covenant, term, and provision of this Agreement shall be construed simply
according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any party.

         (f)      NOTICES. All notices required to be delivered under the terms
of this Agreement shall be forwarded by personal delivery, expedited delivery
service (e.g., Federal Express) or United States certified mail, return receipt
requested. Notices shall be deemed to be communicated and effective on the
earlier of the day of receipt or three days after mailing. Such notices shall be

Agreement to the contrary, if any action at law or in equity, including an
action for declaratory relief, is brought to enforce or interpret the provisions
of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs from the other party; provided, however that no party
shall be a prevailing party unless such party has recovered more as a result of
a final order resulting from judicial proceedings than the amount, if any,
offered by an opposing party to settle the dispute.

         (h)      SURVIVAL. Employee acknowledges that Employee will receive
Proprietary Information and special training from Company; and that the
provisions concerning Employee Covenants contained herein are valuable to
Company and their protection, maintenance and enforcement constitute a
legitimate interest to be protected by Company. Employee acknowledges that
Employee has carefully considered these matters before entering into this
Agreement. The provisions of Section 4 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement. Employee acknowledges that Company will suffer irreparable injury if
such provisions are violated and Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief,
to all other available legal remedies both at law and in equity (including, but
not limited, the recovery of damages), and to reasonable attorneys' fees and
