                                      Page 397

                                   Witnesseth:

1.       Yankees' Concession

(A)      Yankees  hereby  agrees to waive its rights to hourly fee  payments and
         document  licensing  under the Amended  Agreement  until and  including
         December 31, 1999; provided that such waiver shall not pertain to:

         (1)      Yankees'  out  of  pocket  costs, as  described in the Amended
                  Agreement;

         (2)      The services of Yankees  general counsel as general counsel to
                  Colmena;

         (3)      Costs  of   subscriptions  to  periodicals  and  purchases  of
                  software   used  to  assist   Colmena  to  comply  with  legal
                  obligations,  including,  without limitation,  reorganization,
                  corporate, employee benefit, securities and tax laws; and

         (4)      Paralegal,  bookkeeping,  secretarial  and  clerical  services
                  provided by Yankees' personnel to or for the benefit of
                  Colmena.

(B)      To the extent that Colmena is unable to make  payments for the expenses
         excepted  from Yankees'  waiver in Section 1(A) of this 2nd  Amendment,
         Colmena  hereby  agrees  that  Yankees or its  designees  may, at their
         election,  accept payment therefor in Colmena  securities of its choice
         valued  at 50%  of the  price  last  paid  therefor  prior  to  Yankees
         election;  provided that the  determination  as to price will take into
         account  whether or not the  securities  were  freely  tradeable  under
         applicable  federal and state  securities laws and pricing  comparisons
         will be based on securities with comparable trading status.

(C)      Yankees hereby agrees to lend Colmena the sum of $40,000 at 8% interest
         per annum,  repayable  within 30 days after demand therefor by Yankees,
         secured by assets of Colmena selected by Yankees, and evinced by one or
         more negotiable  promissory notes executed by Colmena on a form of note
         selected  by Yankees,  when and as  required  by Colmena,  for the sole
         purpose of paying  expenses  required to bring Colmena into  compliance
         with its  reporting  obligations  under the Exchange  Act, and expenses
         incidental  thereto which will not compromise  Colmena's ability to pay
         for expenses required to attain such compliance.

2.       Compensation & Reimbursement

     Colmena hereby agrees that in  consideration  for Yankees  concessions  and
agreements reflected in Section 1 above:

(A)      The common stock  purchase  options  granted to Yankees  under  Section
         1.4(B) of the Amended Agreement are hereby amended as follows:

         (1)      The options will  henceforth  be extended to cover every class
                  of Colmena  Capital  Stock  (the term  "Capital  Stock"  being
                  defined  for   purposes  of  this   Agreement  as  all  equity
                  securities or securities convertible into equity securities or
                  exchangeable therefor,  including, without limitation,  common
                  stock,  preferred  stock,  convertible  debentures,   options,
                  warrants,  etc.)  outstanding or Reserved (the term "Reserved,
                  as used in the Amended  Agreement,  as further amended by this
                  2nd Amendment,  being defined as securities allocated under an
                  agreement,  option,  warrant or obligation for future issuance
                  pursuant  to an  obligation  binding on Colmena  under  normal
                  circumstances);

         (2)      The quantity of Colmena's Capital Stock subject to the Yankees
                  Warrant  is  hereby  increased  from  51% of all of  Colmena's
                  outstanding  or Reserved  common stock at the time exercise is
                  completed to 75% of all of Colmena's  outstanding  or Reserved
                  Capital Stock at the time  exercise is  completed,  subject to
                  anti-dilutive  rights  for a  period  of three  fiscal  months
                  thereafter  pursuant to which  additional  securities shall be
                  issued  to the  order of  Yankees  in such  amounts  as may be
                  required  so that the  securities  issued  under  the  Yankees
                  Warrant equal 75% of Colmena's  Capital Stock  outstanding  or
                  Reserved at the end of the first three fiscal months following
                  issuance  of the last unit of  securities  paid for by Yankees
                  under the Yankees Warrant;

                                      Page 398

<PAGE>

         (3)      The aggregate exercise price for the Yankees Warrant is hereby
                  increased from $40,000 to $80,000,  the Parties  acknowledging
                  that  the  Yankees  Warrant  has,  as of the  date of this 2nd
                  Amendment, been exercised by Yankees as to 6,000,000 shares of
                  Colmena's  common  stock  for which it has paid  $30,000,  the
                  balance of the $50,000  exercise price being  allocated to the
                  remaining securities issuable thereunder;

         (4)      The term of the Yankees  Warrant is hereby  extended until the
                  latter of December  31, 2002,  or the 100th day after  Colmena
                  registers the securities  remaining unissued under the Yankees
                  Warrant in a manner  permitting  their resale to the public as
                  free trading  securities in compliance  with federal and state
                  securities laws to which they,  Yankees and the purchasers may
                  be subject in conjunction therewith.

(B)      Yankees  shall have the  preferential  right to  subscribe  for Colmena
         securities, in addition to those exercisable under the Yankees Warrant,
         at a price equal to 50% of the price paid by any other subscribers to a
         specific  offering,  limited  offering  or private  placement,  for any
         securities  that  have  not  been  subscribed  for  by  other  persons,
         including Colmena's officers,  directors or other stockholders,  within
         ten days before the end of a designated subscription period.

2.1      Survival of Non-amended Provisions; Interpretations

(A)      Except as amended  hereby or as required to fully  implement the intent
         of the amendments  effected hereby,  the Amended Agreement shall remain
         in full force and effect.

(B)      The Parties hereby agree that to the extent  possible  under  generally
         accepted accounting principals and the auditing rules of the Securities
         and Exchange Commission,  the compensation granted to Yankees under the
         Amended  Agreement,  as amended  hereby,  shall not be  interpreted  to
         require  Colmena to treat non-cash  compensation  as though it had been
         paid in cash,  as an  expense,  and then  the  cash  received  had been
         contributed  by Yankees to  Colmena as a capital  contribution,  and if
         such  interpretation  cannot be legally  avoided,  the Parties agree to
         negotiate  in good faith to modify the terms of the Amended  Agreement,
         as amended hereby,  so as to provide the  compensation  called for in a
         manner that avoids such accounting treatment.

                  purposes  of this  transaction  and,  the use of this  form of
                  agreement or of any derivation  thereof without Yankees' prior
                  written permission is prohibited.

         (3)      The  Amended  Agreement,   as  further  amended  by  this  2nd
                  Amendment,   shall  not  be  construed  more   stringently  or
                  interpreted   less   favorably   against   Yankees'  based  on
                  authorship.

(B)      Colmena hereby  acknowledges that Yankees is not a law firm and has not
         provided it with any advice,  legal or otherwise,  in conjunction  with
         the Amended  Agreement,  as further amended by this 2nd Amendment,  but
         rather,  has  suggested  that it  rely  solely  on its own  independent
         officers,  directors and advisors (other than Yankees) in evaluating or
         interpreting  the  Amended  Agreement,  as further  amended by this 2nd
         Amendment.

         In Witness  Whereof,  the Parties  have  executed  this 2nd  Amendment,
effective as of the last date set forth below.

                                      Page 402Agreement to Serve as Corporate Secretary

         This  agreement to serve as corporate  secretary (the  "Agreement")  is
made and entered into by and between  Colmena  Corp.,  a publicly  held Delaware
corporation  with a class of  securities  registered  under Section 12(g) of the
Securities  Act  of  1934,  as  amended   ("Colmena"  and  the  "Exchange  Act,"
respectively), and Vanessa H. Lindsey, a Florida resident ("Mrs. Lindsey").

                                    Preamble:

         WHEREAS, Mrs. Lindsey currently serves as Secretary for Colmena; and

         WHEREAS,  Colmena  has  required,  as a  condition  for  service  as an
officer,  that all nominees enter into a form of agreement  that  delineates the
proposed officers's rights, duties and responsibilities; and

         WHEREAS,  the  Parties  agree that this  Agreement  provides  important
directives outlining the duties,  obligations,  responsibilities and rights that
are expected of Colmena's officers and Mrs. Lindsey desires to be an officer and
to serve  thereon in  compliance  with the  requirements  of this  Agreement and
Colmena's bylaws:

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  intending to be legally bound, the Parties agree that
if Mrs.  Lindsey  serves as Secretary for the current year, she will be bound by
the following obligations and shall have the following rights:

                                   Witnesseth:

                                    Article I

                       Term, Renewals, Earlier Termination

1.1      Term.

(A)      Subject to the provisions set forth herein,  the term of this Agreement
         shall be deemed to  commence  immediately  following  Mrs.  Lindsey  's
         election as Colmena's  Secretary by Written  Consent in Lieu of Special
         Meeting of the Board of  Directors  dated  January  12,  1999 and shall
         continue  until  the  latter  of  December  31,  2000 or the  election,
         qualification  and  assumption of office by Mrs.  Lindsey's  successor,
         unless earlier terminated as hereinafter set forth.

(B)      In the event that Mrs.  Lindsey is  reelected  or  otherwise  serves as
         secretary  after  December  31,  2000,  then,  unless  a new  agreement
         pertaining  to her  role as  secretary  is  entered  into  specifically
         superceding the provisions of this  Agreement,  this Agreement shall be
         deemed  continuously  self  renewing  for so long as, or whenever  Mrs.
         Lindsey serves as secretary, with the compensation called for hereunder
         being  duplicated  for the  ensuing  year on terms  modified  solely as
         follows:

        (1)    The term and exercise  period of the new Lindsey Options shall be
               modified to reflect,  as closely as  possible,  terms  materially
               similar to those that applied to the Lindsey Option  described in
               Section 3.1 of this Agreement; and

                                      Page 403
<PAGE>

         (2)   The exercise price shall $0.02.

         (3)   The number of Options shall be prorated  based on the part of the
               year during  which  Mrs.Lindsey  serves and based on the roles in
               which Mrs.  Lindsey  serves as Colmena's  secretary  based on the
               formula hereinafter set forth.

1.2      Earlier Termination.

(A)      Colmena shall have the right to terminate this  Agreement  prior to the
         expiration of its Term,  subject to the  provisions of Section 1.3, for
         the following reasons:

         (1)      For Cause:

                  (a)  Colmena may terminate Mrs. Lindsey 's rights under this
                       Agreement at any time for cause.

                  (b)  Such  termination  shall be evidenced by written notice
                       thereof to Mrs.  Lindsey , which  notice  shall  specify
                       the cause for termination.

                  (c)  For purposes hereof, the term "cause" shall mean:

                           (i)      The  inability  of Mrs.  Lindsey  ,  through
                                    sickness or other  incapacity,  to discharge
                                    his duties  under this  Agreement  for 30 or
                                    more  consecutive  days or for a total of 45
                                    or  more   days  in  a  period   of   twelve
                                    consecutive months;

                           (ii)     Dishonesty; theft; or conviction  of a crime
                                    involving  moral turpitude;

                           (iii)    Material  default in the  performance of his
                                    obligations,  services  or  duties  required
                                    under this Agreement or materially breach of
                                    any  provision  of  this  Agreement,   which
                                    default  or breach  has  continued  for five
                                    days after written notice of such default or
                                    breach.

         (2)      Discontinuance of Business:

                  In the event that Colmena discontinues operating its business,
                  this Agreement shall terminate as of the last day of the month
                  on which it ceases operation with the same force and effect as
                  if such  last  day of the  month  were  originally  set as the
                  termination   date   hereof;   provided,   however,   that   a
                  reorganization of Colmena shall not be deemed a termination of
                  its business.

         (3)      Death:

                  This Agreement shall terminate  immediately on Mrs. Lindsey 's
                  death; however, all accrued compensation at such time shall be
                  promptly paid to Mrs. Lindsey 's estate.

1.3      Final Settlement.

         Upon  termination of this Agreement and payment to Mrs.  Lindsey of all
amounts due her hereunder,  Mrs. Lindsey or her representative shall execute and
deliver to the terminating entity on a form prepared by the terminating  entity,
a receipt for such sums and a release of all  claims,  except such claims as may
have been  submitted  pursuant to the terms of this  Agreement  and which remain
unpaid, and, shall forthwith tender to Colmena all records,  manuals and written
procedures, as may be desired by it for the continued conduct of its business.

                                   Article II

                       Performance of Duties as a Director

2.1      Performance of Duties

(A)      Mrs.  Lindsey shall  perform her duties as  secretary,  pursuant to the
         requirements set forth in Colmena's  certificate of  incorporation  and
         bylaws (its  "Constituent  Documents"),  in good faith, in a manner she
         reasonably  believes to be in the best  interests of Colmena,  and with
         such care as is legally  required for  secretary  under the laws of the
         State  of  Delaware  and the  United  States  Securities  and  Exchange
         Commission,  (the  "Commission")  unless a higher  standard  of care is
         specified in Colmena's Constituent Documents.

(B)      In  performing  her duties,  Mrs.  Lindsey shall be entitled to rely on
         information,  opinions,  reports  or  statements,  including  financial
         statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or presented
         by:

         (1)   One or more  officers or employees  of Colmena whom Mrs.  Lindsey
               reasonably  believes to be reliable and  competent in the matters
               presented;

         (2)   Legal counsel,  public accountants or other persons as to matters
               which Mrs. Lindsey reasonably believes to be within such persons'
               professional or expert competence; or

         (3)   A committee of Colmena's  board of directors  upon which she does
               not serve,  duly  designated  in  accordance  with a provision of
               Colmena's  certificate of incorporation or bylaws,  as to matters
               within its designated  authority,  which  committee Mrs.  Lindsey
               reasonably believes to merit confidence.

(C)      Mrs.  Lindsey shall not be considered to be acting in good faith if she
         has knowledge  concerning  the matter in question that would cause such
         reliance described in Section 2.1(B) to be unwarranted.

(D)      If Mrs.  Lindsey is  requested  to provide  comments  on any  corporate
         matters  through a written  request  delivered  by hand,  mail,  fax or
         e-mail,  then,  unless  she  affirmatively  provides  written  comments
         thereto  or  specifies  in a  written  response  that she is  unable or
         unwilling to provide  comments  thereto,  she shall be presumed to have
         approved the matter as accurate,  complete and not  misleading,  and if
         she has  indicated her  inability or  unwillingness  to comment on more
         than three  occasions  within any fiscal year, she shall be presumed to
         have refused to perform her duties as secretary in a manner  justifying
         her removal therefrom for cause under this Agreement.

2.2      Conflicts of Interest

(A)      Neither  Mrs.  Lindsey nor any  affiliate  thereof  will enter into any
         contract  or other  transaction  with  Colmena  unless the fact of such
         relationship  or interest is disclosed  or known to Colmena's  board of
         directors  or  committee  which  authorizes,  approves or ratifies  the
         contract  or  transaction  and  it is  approved  by a vote  or  consent
         sufficient for the purpose without counting the vote or consent of Mrs.
         Lindsey ; and, if  stockholder  approval is required,  the fact of such
         relationship  or interest  is  disclosed  or known to the  stockholders
         entitled to vote and they authorize, approve or ratify such contract or
         transaction by vote or written consent.

2.3      Performance and Attendance

(A)      Mrs.  Lindsey  shall use her best  efforts to  participate  in a timely
         manner  in  all  meetings  of  Colmena's   board  of  directors  or  of
         committees,  and if  unavailable  in person,  to make  arrangements  to
         participate by teleconference or other legally available means.

         data that  Colmena is  required to file with the  Commission,  with the
         United  States  Internal  Revenue  Service  (the  "Service")  and  with
         comparable state and local agencies.

2.4      Resignation

         Mrs.  Lindsey may resign at any time by  providing  Colmena's  board of
directors with written notice indicating the Secretary's intention to resign and
the effective  date  thereof.;  provided,  however,  that  resignation,  whether
voluntary or presumptive (as provided above) shall result in a forfeiture of all
rights to compensation under this Agreement,  other than as to compensation that
has accrued pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

                                   Article III
                                  Compensation

3.1      Secretary's Plan Options

(A)      Mrs.  Lindsey is hereby granted an option to purchase  24,000 shares of
         Colmena's  common stock,  exercisable  beginning on January 1, 2001 and
         ending on December 31, 2002,  unless extended,  at an exercise price of
         $0.02 per share.

(B)      The securities to be issued as  compensation  under this Agreement (the
         "Securities") will be issued without  registration under the provisions
         of Section 5 of the Securities Act or the  securities  regulatory  laws
         and regula tions of the State of Florida (the "Florida  Act")  pursuant
         to  exemptions  provided  pursuant  to  Section  4(6)  of the  Act  and
         comparable provisions of the Florida Act;

         (1)   Mrs.  Lindsey shall be  responsible  for preparing and filing any
               reports  concerning this transaction with the Commission and with
               Florida  Division  of  Securities,  and  payment of any  required
               filing fees (none being expected);

         (2)   All  of  the  Securities  will  bear  legends  restricting  their
               transfer,   sale,   conveyance  or   hypothecation   unless  such
               Securities are either  registered under the provisions of Section
               5 of the Act and under the  Florida  Act,  or an opinion of legal
               counsel,  in form and substance  satisfactory to legal counsel to
               Colmena is provided to  Colmena's  General  Counsel to the effect
               that such  registration is not required as a result of applicable
               exemptions therefrom;

         (3)   Colmena's  transfer agent shall be instructed not to transfer any
               of the Securities  unless the General Counsel for Colmena advises
               it that such transfer is in compliance with all applicable laws;

         (4)   Mrs. Lindsey is acquiring the Securities for her own account, for
               investment  purposes only, and not with a view to further sale or
               distribution; and

         (5)   Mrs. Lindsey or her advisors have examined information concerning
               Colmena  contained  on the  Commission's  Internet  web  site  at
               www.sec.gov,  in the EDGAR  archives,  as well as Colmena's books
               and records and have questioned  Colmena's officers and directors
               as to  such  matters  involving  Colmena  as she  or  she  deemed
               appropriate.

                                      Page 406

<PAGE>

(C)       In the  event  that  Colmena  files  a  registration  or  notification
          statement  with the  Commission  or any  state  securities  regulatory
          authorities  registering  or qualifying any of its securities for sale
          or resale to the public as free  trading  securities,  it will  notify
          Mrs.  Lindsey of such intent at least 15  business  days prior to such
          filing, and shall, if requested by her, include any shares theretofore
          issued  upon  exercise  of  the  Options  in  such   registration   or
          notification  statement,  provided that Mrs.  Lindsey  cooperates in a
          timely  manner  with  any  requirements   for  such   registration  or
          qualification  by notification,  including,  without  limitation,  the
          obligation to provide complete and accurate information therefor; and,
          provided  further  that,  the  inclusion  of such  securities  in such
          notification   or   registration   statement  is  not  deemed  by  any
          participating  underwriter to be detrimental to a proposed offering of
          Colmena's  securities  to the public or to the price or  liquidity  of
          Colmena's publicly held securities.

3.2     Contingent Compensation

         In  addition  to the  compensation  described  above and in Section 3.1
(unless  comparable  compensation  is provided for under the terms of a separate
employment or consulting agreement):

(A)      In the event that Mrs. Lindsey arranges or provides funding for Colmena
         on terms more  beneficial  than those  reflected in  Colmena's  current
         principal  financing  agreements,  copies of which are  included  among
         Colmena's  records  available  through the SEC's  EDGAR web site,  Mrs.
         Lindsey shall be entitled, at her election, to either:

         (1)      A fee equal to 5% of such savings, on a continuing basis; or

         (2)      If equity  funding is  provided  through  Mrs.  Lindsey or any
                  affiliates  thereof,  a discount  of 5% from the bid price for
                  the subject  equity  securities,  if they are issuable as free
                  trading  securities,  or, a discount of 25% from the bid price
                  for the subject  equity  securities,  if they are  issuable as
                  restricted  securities  (as the  term  restricted  is used for
                  purposes of SEC Rule 144); and

         (3)      If equity funding is arranged for Colmena by Mrs.  Lindsey and
                  Colmena is not obligated to pay any other source  compensation
                  in conjunction  therewith,  other than the normal  commissions
                  charged by broker dealers in securities in compliance with the
                  compensation  guidelines  of the NASD,  Mrs.  Lindsey shall be
                  entitled  to a bonus in a sum equal to 5% of the net  proceeds
                  of such funding.

(B)      In the event that Mrs. Lindsey generates business for Colmena, then, on
         any sales  resulting  therefrom,  Mrs.  Lindsey  shall be entitled to a
         commission equal to 5% of the net income derived by Colmena  therefrom,
         on a continuing basis.

3.3      Indemnification.

         Colmena will defend,  indemnify and hold Mrs. Lindsey harmless from all
liabilities,  suits,  judgments,  fines,  penalties or  disabilities,  including
expenses  associated   directly,   therewith  (e.g.  legal  fees,  court  costs,
investigative  costs,  witness fees, etc.) resulting from any reasonable actions
taken by her in good faith on behalf of  Colmena,  its  affiliates  or for other
persons or entities at the request of the board of directors of Colmena,  to the
fullest extent legally  permitted,  and in conjunction  therewith,  shall assure
that all required  expenditures  are made in a manner making it unnecessary  for
Mrs. Lindsey to incur any out of pocket expenses;  provided,  however, that Mrs.
Lindsey permits  Colmena to select and supervise all personnel  involved in such
defense  and that Mrs.  Lindsey  waives  any  conflicts  of  interest  that such
personnel may have as a result of also representing Colmena,  their stockholders
or other  personnel and agrees to hold them harmless from any matters  involving
such representation, except such as involve fraud or bad faith.

                                Special Covenants

4.1      Confidentiality.

         (1)   Mrs. Lindsey  acknowledges that, in and as a result of her duties
               hereunder,  she will be  developing  for Colmena,  making use of,
               acquiring and/or adding to,  confidential  information of special
               and unique nature and value relating to such matters as Colmena's
               trade  secrets,  systems,   procedures,   manuals,   confidential
               reports,  personnel  resources,  strategic  and  tactical  plans,
               advisors,  clients, investors and funding sources;  consequently,
               as  material  inducement  to the  entry  into this  Agreement  by
               Colmena,  Mrs. Lindsey hereby covenants and agrees that she shall
               not, at anytime during or following the terms of her service as a
               member of Colmena's  board of directors,  directly or indirectly,
               personally use, divulge or disclose,  for any purpose whatsoever,
               any of such  confidential  information which has been obtained by
               or disclosed to her as a result of her association  with Colmena,
               or Colmena's affiliates.

         (2)   In the event of a breach or threatened  breach by Mrs. Lindsey of
               any of the provisions of this Section 4.1,  Colmena,  in addition
               to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies or damages
               available  to  Colmena,  whether  at law or in  equity,  shall be
               entitled  to a  permanent  injunction  in order to  prevent or to
               restrain any such breach by Mrs.  Lindsey , or by Mrs. Lindsey 's
               partners,   agents,    representatives,    servants,   employers,
               employees,  affiliates  and/or any and all  persons  directly  or
               indirectly acting for or with her.

4.2      Special Remedies.

         In view of the  irreparable  harm and damage  which  would  undoubtedly
occur to Colmena as a result of a breach by Mrs.  Lindsey  of the  covenants  or
agreements  contained  in this  Article  Four,  and in  view  of the  lack of an
adequate  remedy at law to protect  Colmena's  interests,  Mrs.  Lindsey  hereby
covenants and agrees that Colmena shall have the following additional rights and
remedies in the event of a breach hereof:

(A)      Mrs. Lindsey  hereby consents to the issuance of a permanent injunction
         enjoining  her from  any  violations  of  the  covenants  set  forth in
         Section 4.1 hereof; and

(B)      Because  it is  impossible to ascertain or estimate the entire or exact
         cost,  damage  or  injury  which   Colmena  may  sustain  prior  to the
         effective   enforcement  of  such   injunction,   Mrs.  Lindsey  hereby
         covenants  and agrees to pay over to Colmena, in the event she violates
         the  covenants  and  agreements  contained in  Section 4.2 hereof,  the
         greater of:

         (1)   Any payment or  compensation  of any kind received by her because
               of such violation before the issuance of such injunction, or

         (2)   The sum of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollars per violation,  which
               sum  shall be  liquidated  damages,  and not a  penalty,  for the
               injuries  suffered by Colmena as a result of such violation,  the
               Parties  hereto  agreeing  that such  liquidated  damages are not
               intended as the  exclusive  remedy  available  to Colmena for any
               breach of the covenants and agreements  contained in this Article
               Four,  prior to the  issuance  of such  injunction,  the  Parties
               recognizing that the only adequate remedy to protect Colmena from
               the injury caused by such breaches would be injunctive relief.

4.3      Cumulative Remedies.

         Mrs. Lindsey hereby  irrevocably  agrees that the remedies described in
Section 4.3 hereof shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any of the
rights or remedies to which Colmena is or may be entitled to,  whether at law or
in equity, under or pursuant to this Agreement.

4.4      Acknowledgment of Reasonableness.

          Mrs. Lindsey hereby represents, warrants and acknowledges that she has
     carefully  read and  considered  the  provisions  of this Article Four and,
     having done so, agrees that the  restrictions set forth herein are fair and
     reasonable and are reasonably  required for the protection of the interests
     of Colmena, its officers, other directors and employees;  consequently,  in
     the  event  that  any of the  above-described  restrictions  shall  be held
     unenforceable by any court of competent  jurisdiction,  Mrs. Lindsey hereby
     covenants,  agrees  and  directs  such  court to  substitute  a  reasonable
     judicially  enforceable  limitation  in  place  of  any  limitation  deemed
     unenforceable  and,  Mrs.  Lindsey  hereby  covenants and agrees that if so
     modified,  the  covenants  contained in this Article Four shall be as fully
     enforceable  as if they had been set forth herein  directly by the Parties.
     In  determining  the  nature  of  this  limitation,   Mrs.  Lindsey  hereby
     acknowledges,  covenants  and agrees  that it is the intent of the  Parties
     that a court  adjudicating a dispute arising  hereunder  recognize that the
     Parties  desire that this covenant not to compete be imposed and maintained
     to the greatest extent possible.

4.5      Unauthorized Acts.

         Mrs.  Lindsey hereby  covenants and agrees that she will not do any act
or incur any obligation on behalf of Colmena of any kind  whatsoever,  except as
authorized  by its board of  directors or by its  stockholders  pursuant to duly
adopted stockholder action.

4.6      Covenant not to Disparage

         Mrs.  Lindsey hereby  irrevocably  covenants and agrees that during the
term of this Agreement and after its  termination,  she will refrain from making
any remarks  that could be  construed  by anyone,  under any  circumstances,  as
disparaging,  directly  or  indirectly,  specifically,  through  innuendo  or by
inference, whether or not true, about Colmena, its constituent members, or their
officers,  directors,  stockholders,  employees,  agent or  affiliates,  whether
related to the business of Colmena, to other business or financial matters or to
personal matters.

                    agree to an extended mediation period;

         (2)   In the event that  mediation does not lead to a resolution of the

               (c)  If the  terms  of the  arbitral  award  do not  establish  a
                    prevailing   Party,   then  the  expenses  of   unsuccessful
                    mediation  and  arbitration  shall be borne  equally  by the
