subsidiaries and affiliates in the performance of Executive's services
and duties.  Executive will not actively engage in any other business
or business activity without the prior consent of the President of the
Company.  Nothing herein contained will limit the right of Executive to

or otherwise materially conflict with any policies which have been
promulgated and distributed by the Company.

obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of
mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the
provisions of this Agreement.  The Company agrees to pay, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the
Executive may incur as a result of any contest by the Company or others
of the validity or the enforceability of, or liability under, any
provision of this Agreement.

         As consideration for Company entering into this Agreement with
Executive, Executive agrees to release and hold harmless Company from
any and all obligations that Company may otherwise have to Executive
pursuant to the terms of that certain Severance Agreement with
Executive dated October 29, 1999, as amended.  If a Change in Control,
as defined in this Agreement, occurs on or before June 30, 2001, then
the benefits described in Section 2 of the Severance Agreement dated
October 29, 1999 will be paid to the Executive concurrently with such
Change in Control, as defined in this Agreement, and no benefits will
be paid pursuant to this Agreement.

     5.  Non-Exclusivity of Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in
any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans, programs, policies or
practices provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and for
which the Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or
otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any stock
option, restricted stock or other agreements with the Company or any of
its subsidiaries except for any benefit, bonus, incentive or right to
which the Executive would be entitled to which are released pursuant to
Section 4 of this Agreement.  Amounts which are vested benefits or
which the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan,
policy, practice or program of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
on the Termination Date shall be payable in accordance with such plan,
policy, practice or program.

     6.  Funding.  The Company shall pay the benefits under this
Agreement out of its general assets pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.  There shall be no special fund out of which benefits shall
be paid, nor shall the Executive be required to make a contribution as
a condition of receiving benefits.

     7.  Tax Withholding.  The Company may withhold or cause to be
withheld from any benefits payable under this Agreement all federal,
state, city or other taxes that are required by any law or governmental
regulation or ruling.

oral or written, between the Company and Executive concerning severance
payments.

     10.  Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and
enforced according to, the laws of the State of Texas.  The invalidity
of any provision shall be automatically reformed to the extent
permitted by applicable law and shall not affect the enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof.  Executive hereby waives any objection
which he may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit,
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement
brought in the District Court of Harris County, State of Texas, or in

obligations under this Agreement to any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates, provided that in each case the Company shall remain
responsible for its obligation hereunder.

     12.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several
identical counterparts, and by the parties hereto on separate
counterparts, and each counterpart, when so executed and delivered,

counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

     13.  Modification.  This Agreement may be modified only by written
agreement signed by Executive and by the President or Secretary of the
Company.  The failure to insist upon compliance with any provision
hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision or any other
provision hereof.
