<PAGE>

disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder. Travelers shall advance to an
Indemnified Person reasonable attorney's fees and other costs and expenses
incurred in connection with defense of any action or proceeding arising out of

            11. Activities of the Consultant and Others.

                  (a) The Consultant and its members, agents, officers and
employees who may or may not also be affiliates or employees of HPB Associates,
LP (the "Fund"), may engage, simultaneously with their investment management
activities on behalf of the Portfolio hereunder, in other businesses, and may
render services similar to those described in this Agreement for other
individuals, companies, trusts or persons, and shall not solely by reason of
such engaging in other businesses or rendering of services for others be deemed
to be acting in conflict with the interests of Travelers. Members, employees, or
officers of the Consultant, in their individual capacities, may be shareholders,
directors, officers or employees of the Fund but shall not be deemed thereby to
have interests which are in conflict with the interests of Travelers;

                  (b) Travelers acknowledges that:

                        (i) The Consultant is not registered as an advisor under
the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, and

                        (ii) That Howard Berkowitz, the principal of the
Consultant, will continue to be the principal manager of the Fund, (and in the
future related funds) and that such activities shall not be deemed in conflict
with the Consultant's activities under the Agreement; and

<PAGE>
                        (iii) The Fund (or related funds) may invest with
Portfolio Managers in which the assets of the Portfolio are invested, and share
information with CAI and Travelers with respect to Portfolio Manager or
prospective Portfolio Managers and such activities shall not be deemed to be a
conflict between Travelers and Consultant for purposes of the provisions of
Section 14(b) hereof, nor a violation of the confidentiality provisions of
Section 12.

                        (iv) Future conflicts of interest may develop between
Travelers and Consultant related to the investing activities described above. In
such event the parties will consult with each other and take additional actions
(e.g. consultant may recluse itself from any activity related to an investment
for which there is a conflict) to avoid any such conflicts.

            12. Confidentiality. Advisor acknowledges that in the course of
performing his obligations hereunder he will have access to Confidential
Information of Travelers. For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential
Information" means, all confidential, proprietary or secret information or data
of Travelers disclosed to Advisor or that Advisor becomes aware of during the
course of this Agreement, whether printed, written, oral or electronically
stored or reproduced, including but not limited to Travelers strategies,
objectives, operational processes, products, service payments, historical or
projected financial statements and assumptions, organizational documents and
management information system specifications, data, software, trade secrets and
reports, including any summaries thereof or notations thereon. Advisor shall
accept and retain all Confidential Information in strictest confidence and shall
not disclose any Confidential

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
Information to any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, except (1)
to any employee of this who requires access to the Confidential Information for
purposes of providing consulting services hereunder; (2) upon and in accordance
with Travelers prior written authorization and (3) to the extent such
information becomes publicly available otherwise than by Consultant.

If Advisor is requested or required by law, regulation or legal or judicial
process to disclose any Confidential Information, Advisor shall notify Travelers
immediately and cooperate with Travelers, at Travelers expense, in seeking a
protective order or other remedy.

            13. Enforcement of Proprietary Rights. The Consultant acknowledges
that, in the event of any actual or impending breach of any of the provisions of
Section 12 of this Agreement regarding the use or disclosure of confidential
information or other property of Travelers, the damages incurred by Travelers
would be irreparable and inadequate remedy. Consequently, Travelers shall have
the right, in addition to any restrain any breach or threatened breach or
otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of Section 12 of this Agreement
without showing or proving any actual damage to Travelers, and Travelers shall
not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking any such relief.

of the Portfolio or confidential information in its own interest or for its own
account; (2) act in any transaction involving the assets of the Portfolio on

interest of Travelers or the assets of Travelers Portfolio; or (3) receive any
consideration for his own personal account from any party dealing with Travelers

jointly with others during his employment by the Company, whether or not during
normal working hours or on the premises of the Company (all of which are
collectively referred to in this Agreement as "Developments").

(c) Employee agrees to assign and does hereby assign to the Company (or any
person or entity designated by the Company) all his right, title and interest in
and to all Developments and all related patents, patent applications, copyrights
and copyright applications, and shall promptly assign to the Company (or any
person or entity designated by the Company) all such right, title and interest
which becomes vested in the Employee by operation of law or otherwise. However,
this Paragraph 6(c) shall not apply to Developments which do not relate to the
present or planned business or research and development of the Company and which
are made and conceived by the Employee not during normal working hours, not on
the Company's premises and not using the Company's tools, devices, equipment or
Confidential Information.

(d) Employee agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, both during and after
his employment with the Company, with respect to the procurement, maintenance
and enforcement of copyrights and patents (both in the United States and foreign
countries) relating to Developments. Employee shall sign all papers, including,

deem necessary or desirable in order to protect its rights and interests in any
Development.

Nondisclosure Agreement not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement
shall continue to be effective.

7. NON-DISCLOSURE. Employee agrees that he shall not directly or indirectly
disclose any of the terms of this Agreement to anyone other than his immediate
family or counsel, except as such disclosure may be required for accounting or
tax reporting purposes or as otherwise may be required by law.

be, will not, at any time in the future, make any disparaging statements about
the other (in the case of Employee, in addition, about SS&C's products or its
employees), unless such statements are made truthfully in response to a subpoena
or other legal process.

9. CHOICE OF LAW AND FORUM; DISPUTE RESOLUTION. This Agreement shall be
interpreted, construed and in all respects governed under the laws of the State
of Connecticut without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any action, suit
or proceeding related to any dispute, claim or controversy or otherwise related
to the rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be
brought in the Superior Court of the State of Connecticut or in the United
States District Court for the District of Connecticut, and the parties hereto
submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and shall not bring any such
action, suit or proceeding, except in such courts.

10. SURVIVAL. The obligations of Employee under paragraphs 5-8 and of SS&C under
paragraph 8 shall survive the termination of Employee's employment (except if
Employee revokes his acceptance of this Agreement prior to the Effective Date).

11. NOTICES. Any notice, request or instruction to be given hereunder shall be
in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally or by recognized
courier or three days after being sent by certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, to the parties at their respective addresses set

and supersedes all prior negotiations and agreements, whether written or oral.
This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by a document signed by an
authorized officer of SS&C and Employee.

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") nor an "officer" within
the meaning of Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act.

EMPLOYEE UNDERSTANDS THAT HE MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS
AGREEMENT AND THAT HE IS GIVING UP ANY LEGAL CLAIMS HE HAS AGAINST THE PARTIES
RELEASED ABOVE BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT. EMPLOYEE FURTHER UNDERSTANDS THAT HE
MAY HAVE UP TO 21 DAYS TO CONSIDER THIS AGREEMENT, THAT HE MAY REVOKE IT AT ANY
TIME DURING THE 7 DAYS AFTER HE SIGNS IT, AND THAT IT SHALL NOT BECOME EFFECTIVE
