     WHEREAS,  Murdock  Communications  Corporation  ("MCC")  and  Colin Halford
("Halford")  are  parties  to  a  written  employment agreement (the "Employment
Agreement")  dated  January  1,  1999;  and

     WHEREAS, Halford's employment with MCC ended effective January 1, 2000; and

     WHEREAS,  MCC  continued  to  pay  Halford's  salary through June 30, 2000,
(hereafter  the  "Severance Payments") in partial consideration for the promises
and  agreements  described  below;  and

     WHEREAS,  MCC  and  Halford  mutually  desire  to  terminate the Employment
Agreement  and  release  all  claims and obligations thereunder, pursuant to the
terms  and  promises  set  forth  below;

     MCC  AND  HALFORD  THEREBY  AGREE  AS  FOLLOWS:

     1.     MCC hall issue warrants granting Halford the right to purchase up to
seventy-five  thousand  (75,000)  shares  of MCC stock, at a price of one dollar
($1.00)  per  share, valid for three years from the date of issue, with an issue
date  of  March  22,  2000.

     2.     All  MCC  stock options of which Halford was fully vested as of June
30,  2000, shall remain in full force and effect and may be exercised by Halford
on  or  before  June 30, 2001.  Any such options not exercised on or before June
30,  2001,  shall  expire  without  further  notice  to  Halford.

     3.     In exchange for the Severance Payments Halford has already received,
along  with the additional consideration described in paragraphs 1 and 2, above,
and  without  further  compensation or consideration from MCC, Halford agrees to

and assistance to MCC in matters involving the collection of MCC's aged accounts
receivable,  the  filing of regulatory forms, the payment of MCC's aged accounts
payable and the sale of any MCC assets, through December 31, 2000, to the extent
that  such  advice and counseling does not unreasonably interfere with Halford's
ability  to  perform  the functions of his full-time employment.  After December
31, 2000, Halford may, at his discretion, provide further assistance to MCC from
time-to-time  if  so  requested  by  MCC.

     4.     In exchange for the Severance Payments Halford has already received,
along  with the additional consideration described in paragraphs 1 and 2, above,
and  without  further  compensation or consideration from MCC, Halford agrees to
take  all steps necessary to transfer all telephone accounts relating to Larken,

payment  of any statements, bills, liabilities or obligations pertaining to such
accounts  for  any  time  period  after  May  1,  2000.

     5.     In exchange for the Severance Payments Halford has already received,
along  with the additional consideration described in paragraphs 1 and 2, above,
and  without  further  compensation  or  consideration  from MCC, Halford hereby

that  Halford  may have that arise from or relate to any promissory notes issued
by  MCC  to  Halford.  Any  claims  that Halford has, or may claim to have, that
arise  from  or  relate  to  any promissory notes issued by MCC to Halford shall
survive  the  execution of this Agreement but shall be extinguished in the event
that (1) Halford and MCC reach a separate agreement to extinguish such claims or
(2)  Halford  obtains a full and complete release from any obligations under any
and  all  promissory  notes  that  he  has  issued to the Hartford Carlisle Bank
without  payment  or other valuable consideration supplied by him.  In the event
that  Halford  obtains  a full and complete release of any obligations under any
and  all promissory notes that he has issued to Hartford Carlisle Bank, then any
claims  that  Halford  may  have  against  MCC  that arise from or relate to any
promissory  notes  issued by MCC to Halford shall be limited to the actual value
of  such  payment or consideration plus any allowable reasonable expenses and/or
attorney fees.  Nothing in this paragraph shall act as a release or satisfaction
of  the  obligations evidenced directly by the promissory notes issued by MCC to
Halford.  MCC  hereby releases Halford from any and all obligations, liabilities
or  claims arising from or relating to any acts or omissions, or alleged acts or
omissions,  by  Halford  on  or  before  the Effective Date of this Agreement to
Terminate  Employment  Agreement,  except that MCC does not release Halford from
any  claims  of fraud or other intentional wrongdoing based on any acts that may
have  occurred  during  the  course  of  Halford's  employment  with  MCC.
