of this  Agreement,  in which event the terms and  provisions of this  Agreement
shall control.

     12.  Compensation  Review.  The Company  will conduct  periodic  reviews of
Employee and his performance no less frequently than annually. While the Company
currently  anticipates  that  during  such  reviews,  it may  consider  possible

Company shall have no obligation to alter or adjust any compensation or benefits
due to Employee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     13. Expense Reimbursement.  Employee shall be reimbursed by the Company for
the  reasonable  and  necessary  business  expenses  incurred by Employee in the

procedures related to expense reimbursement and approval thereof.

     14. Conflict of Interest. Employee shall devote his full time and attention
to the business of the Company and the diligent discharge of the duties assigned
to Employee  throughout the term of this Agreement.  Unless  consented to by the
Company, Employee will not, directly or indirectly,  have any business interests
or investments (whether as principal, partner,  shareholder,  director, officer,
employee, agent or otherwise) that: (i) are other than passive investments which
do not require Employee's direct personal time, attention,  or services; or (ii)
create any conflict of interest with the Company or with  Employee's  employment
by the Company.  For  purposes of the  foregoing,  a conflict of interest  shall
include,  but not be limited to, any direct or indirect interest in any business
or  enterprise  that is  competitive  with the  Company  or any  corporation  or
business enterprise directly or indirectly  controlling,  controlled by or under
common control with the Company.

     Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  during the period  Employee is employed by
the Company,  Employee may own up to 1% of the outstanding  equity securities of
stock in any  corporation  which is listed  upon a national  stock  exchange  or
traded in the over-the-counter market.

     15. Confidentiality;  Restrictive Covenants. Employee acknowledges that his
employment  with the Company will afford Employee an opportunity to identify the
Company's business  strategies and know-how,  enable him to establish  favorable
relations  with the Company's  customers,  business  prospects and suppliers and
provide  him with  access to other  confidential,  trade  secret or  proprietary
information  of  the  Company  (collectively,  the  "Confidential  Information")
including, without limitation,  business and marketing plans, customer files and
lists, business prospects,  sales techniques,  billing files,  software,  source
code, financial  information,  reports,  summaries,  spreadsheets,  evaluations,
drawings,  specifications,  seismic data,  reserve reports,  prospect  analyses,
geological  and  geophysical  data,  maps,  models,  interpretations,  and other
confidential  or  proprietary  information  of the  Company  whether in written,
graphic,  electronic or any other format. Employee further acknowledges that the
Company will expend considerable  amounts of time, money and other assets in the
development of this Confidential Information which is essential to its business,
and Employee  acknowledges  that his employment by the Company is conditioned on
his  promise  not  to  use  any  Confidential  Information  or  to  divulge  any
Confidential  Information  to any person or entity not  employed  by the Company
without the Company's prior written approval. Employee, therefore, agrees not to
use, disclose or in any manner reveal to any person, firm, company,  corporation
or  other  entity  any of the  Confidential  Information  conveyed  to him or in
connection  with his  employment  by the  Company  prior or  subsequent  to this
Agreement

                                       4
<PAGE>

other than for Employee to carry out his duties under this  Agreement.  Anything
herein to the contrary  notwithstanding,  this Agreement shall be inoperative as
to such  portions  of the  Confidential  Information  which  (i)  are or  become
generally  available  to the public  other than as a result of a  disclosure  by
Employee;  (ii) become available to Employee on a  nonconfidential  basis from a
source, other than the Company or its representatives,  which has represented to
Employee (and which Employee has no reason to disbelieve after due inquiry) that
such source is  entitled  to  disclose  it, or (iii) were known to Employee on a
nonconfidential  basis  prior to  disclosure  to  Employee by the Company or its
representatives.

     Employee  further agrees that while he remains in the employ of the Company
and for a period of twelve (12) months following  termination of such employment
by  Employee  or by the  Company  for  cause,  Employee  will  not  directly  or
indirectly  (whether  through any person,  firm,  company,  corporation or other
entity,  other than the Company),  do any of the following  anywhere  within the
geographical area in which the Company does business:

          a. For his own account, for any person, firm, company,  corporation or
     other  entity,  other than the Company,  or for any other  reason,  solicit
     business or cause agents of any person, firm, company, corporation or other
     entity to  solicit  business  of a type  similar to that  solicited  by the
     Company from or for any person, firm, company,  corporation or other entity
     who was, at the effective date of the  termination  of his employment  with
     the Company,  or within a one (1) year period prior to such termination,  a
     customer of the Company,  as disclosed by the Company's  books and records,
     or solicit business from any prospective  customer of the Company with whom
     the Company has had  contact  within the one (1) year period  prior to such
     termination as disclosed by the Company's books and records;

          b. In any way, directly or indirectly,  whether  personally or through
     agents,  other  persons  or  otherwise,  divert or take away or  attempt to
     divert or take away any of such customers or  prospective  customers or any
     of the Company's  suppliers or business  prospects,  or otherwise interfere
     with or attempt to interfere with the Company's  relations with any of such
     customers, prospective customers, business prospects or suppliers; or

          c. In any other  way,  whether  personally  or through  agents,  other
     persons or otherwise, induce or attempt to induce any director, employee or
     agent of the Company to terminate his employment with the Company.

     16. Severability of Restrictive Covenants. It is understood and agreed that
the restrictions  imposed by the provisions of the foregoing Section 15 and each
subsection  thereof  are  separate  and  severable,  and it is the intent of the
parties hereto that in the event the restrictions imposed by said Section or any
subsection  should be  determined by any court of competent  jurisdiction  to be
void for any reason whatsoever,  the remaining  provisions of this Agreement and
the  restrictions  imposed by the remainder of said Section or subsection  shall
remain valid and binding upon the parties. It is also agreed and understood that
in the event any restriction contained in Section 15 should be considered by any
court of competent  jurisdiction to be unenforceable because unreasonable either
in length of time or area to which said restriction applies, it is the intent

                                       5
<PAGE>

of both parties hereto that said court reduce and reform the provisions  thereof
so as to apply to limits considered enforceable by said court.

     17. Equitable Remedies.  Recognizing that irreparable damage will result to
the  Company  in the  event of  breach  of any of the  foregoing  covenants  and
assurances  of Section 15 by  Employee,  the  Company  shall be  entitled  to an
injunction  to be issued by any court of competent  jurisdiction  enjoining  and
restraining  Employee and each and every person,  firm, company,  corporation or
other  entity  acting  in  concert  or  participating  with  Employee  from  the
continuation of such breach, and in addition thereto,  Employee shall pay to the
Company all  ascertainable  damages,  including costs and reasonable  attorneys'
fees and  expenses,  sustained  by the  Company  by reason of the breach of said
covenants and assurances.

     18. Survival of Representations. The covenants, agreements, representations
and warranties contained in or made by Employee pursuant to this Agreement shall
survive Employee's termination of employment,  irrespective of any investigation
made by or on behalf of any party.

     19. Waiver. Failure of either party to demand strict compliance with any of
the terms,  covenants or conditions  hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such
term,  covenant or condition,  nor shall any waiver or  relinquishment by either
party of any right or power  hereunder at any one time or more times be deemed a
waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times.

     20.  Severability.  The invalidity or  unenforceability of any provision or
provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or  enforceability of
any other  provision  of this  Agreement,  which shall  remain in full force and
effect.

construed  in  accordance  with the laws of the State of  Oklahoma  and shall be
