                                                                   April 2, 1999

[BLOCKBUSTER LOGO APPEARS HERE]

El Paso, Texas 79912

Dear Mr. Zine:

     Reference is made to that certain employment agreement between you and
Blockbuster Inc. ("Blockbuster"), dated April 1, 1999 (your "Employment
Agreement").  All defined terms used without definitions shall have the meanings
provided in your Employment Agreement.

     This confirms Blockbuster's agreement as follows:

     1.  Blockbuster Loan.  Blockbuster shall lend you an amount equal to all
Federal, state and local income taxes payable in connection with your Sign-On
Bonus.  An initial loan shall be made when the Sign-On Bonus is paid in the
amount of any withholdings from the Sign-On Bonus.  An additional loan shall be
made at such time as any additional taxes are payable in connection with the
Sign-On Bonus in the amount of such additional taxes as shall be determined from
documentation satisfactory to Blockbuster.  These loans shall bear interest at
the minimum applicable Federal rate defined in Section 7872(f)(2) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The aggregate principal amount of
these loans shall be forgiven, together with any accrued interest thereon, on an
income tax free basis in three equal installments on the first, second and third
anniversaries of your Commencement Date.  Blockbuster will continue to forgive
on the same basis the aggregate principal amount of these loans, and accrued
interest thereon, in the event that Blockbuster terminates your employment
without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason at such times as
such forgiveness would otherwise occur.  If you terminate your employment
without Good Reason or Blockbuster terminates your employment for Cause, any
outstanding aggregate principal amount of these loans, together with any accrued
interest thereon, will accelerate and become immediately due and payable.

     2.  Petro Services. After your Commencement Date you may continue to serve
as a director of Petro Stopping Centers, L.P. ("Petro") and provide consulting
services to Petro.  In addition, during the period from your Commencement Date
through July 1, 1999, you may continue to provide services to Petro on a part
time basis provided that such services do not interfere with your services under
your Employment Agreement.  Blockbuster agrees that your providing the services
to Petro described in this paragraph 2 shall not constitute a breach of your
obligations under your Employment Agreement.

     3.  Non-Mitigation Period.  Your Employment Agreement provides that, in the
event that your employment is terminated by Blockbuster without Cause or you
terminate your employment for Good Reason, you are not required to mitigate the
payments pursuant to paragraphs 8(d)(i)-(iv), and no reduction for other
compensation shall be made, for twelve (12) months after such termination or, if
less, the balance of the Term.  The employment agreements for certain
Blockbuster executives at the executive vice president level currently provide
that, in the event of the termination of their employment without Cause or for
Good Reason, such executives are not obligated to mitigate comparable
termination payments, and no reduction for other compensation shall be made, for
an eighteen (18) months or, if less, the balance of the term of their agreement.
In the event that any of the current Blockbuster executives at the executive
vice president level retain this eighteen (18) month non-mitigation period, you
will also receive the benefit of an eighteen (18) month non-mitigation period.

     If the foregoing correctly sets forth our understanding, please sign and
return all three (3) copies of this letter to the undersigned for execution on
behalf of Blockbuster; after this letter has been executed by Blockbuster and a
fully executed copy returned to you, it shall constitute a binding agreement.

                                        Very truly yours,

                                        BLOCKBUSTER INC.

Board of Directors shall review the Executive's Base Salary annually and the
Board of Directors may adjust the Executive's Base Salary from year to year

things, changes in the cost of living, the Executive's performance and the
performance of Bankshares.  Any action or review by the Board of Directors may
be delegated to an appropriate committee thereof.

     (b) Incentive Compensation.  In addition to the Base Salary and subject to
         ----------------------

hereafter made available to senior executives of Bankshares, as such plans,
programs and arrangements may be in effect from time to time.  Without limiting

negligence, criminal conduct or a violation of any law, governmental regulation
or course of dealing generally accepted in the banking industry. Bankshares
shall maintain in full force and effect directors' and officers' liability
insurance unless the Board of Directors determines that the cost of such
insurance is not commercially reasonable when weighed against the nature of the
coverage available.

and shall not permit any person subject to his direction or control to, directly
or indirectly, anywhere in the State of Georgia within 100 miles of the offices

<PAGE>

          (2) During the Restricted Period, the Executive shall not, and shall
not permit any of his respective affiliates, employees, agents or others under
his control to, directly or indirectly, on their own behalf or on behalf of any
other person, (i) call upon, accept business from, or solicit the business of
(or attempt to do any of the foregoing) any customer of Bankshares or any other

customer of Bankshares or any of its affiliates in the Territory, (ii) otherwise
divert or attempt to divert any business from Bankshares or any of its
affiliates operating in the Territory, (iii) interfere with the business
relationships between Bankshares and any of its affiliates operating in the
Territory, on the one hand, and any of its respective customers or others with
whom they have business relationships, on the other hand, or (iv) recruit or
otherwise solicit or induce, or enter into or participate in any plan or
arrangement to cause, any person who is an employee of, or otherwise performing
services for, Bankshares or any of its affiliates to terminate his or her
employment or other relationship with Bankshares or such affiliate, hire any

          (3) The Executive shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, use
or purport to authorize any person to use any name, mark, logo, trade dress or
other identifying words or images which are the same as or similar to those used
currently or in the past by Bankshares in connection with any product or
service, whether or not such use would be in an enterprise competitive with that
of Bankshares or any affiliate of Bankshares.

     (b)  Confidential Information.
          ------------------------

          (1) The Executive acknowledges that in the course of his employment
pursuant to this Agreement, he has had and is expected to continue to have
extensive contact with customers of Bankshares and its affiliates, and to have
knowledge of and access to trade secrets and other proprietary and confidential
information of Bankshares and its affiliates, including, without limitation, the
identity of customers, customers' addresses, suppliers and other persons with
whom Bankshares and its affiliates have business relationships, technical
information, knowhow, plans, specifications, and information relating to the
financial condition, results of operations, employees, products, products under
development, inventions, sources, leads or methods of obtaining new products or
business, pricing formulae, methods or procedures, cost of services and
marketing strategies of Bankshares or its affiliates or any other information
relating to Bankshares or its affiliates that could reasonably be regarded as
confidential or proprietary or which is not available to the public
(collectively, the "Confidential Information"), and that such information, even
to the extent it may be or have been developed or acquired by or through the
efforts of the Executive, constitutes valuable, special and unique assets of
Bankshares and its affiliates developed or acquired at great expense which are
the exclusive property of Bankshares and its affiliates.

          (2) During the Restricted Period, the Executive agrees not to use,
disclose or exploit, the Confidential Information for any reason other than to

<PAGE>

          (3) Upon the termination of the Executive's employment with
Bankshares, the Executive shall promptly deliver to Bankshares all customer
files, correspondence, manuals, notes, notebooks, reports and copies thereof,
and all other materials relating to the Business of Bankshares, including
without limitation any materials incorporating Confidential Information, which
are in the possession or control of the Executive.

     (c) Continuing Obligations.  The Executive acknowledges that Bankshares
         ----------------------
would be irreparably harmed and that monetary damages would not provide an
adequate remedy to it in the event the covenants contained in subsections (a)
and (b) of this Section 9 were not complied with in accordance with their terms.
Accordingly, the Executive agrees that any breach or threatened breach by him of
any provision of subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 9 shall entitle
Bankshares to injunctive and other equitable relief to secure the enforcement of
these provisions, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to it
and it shall be entitled to receive from the Executive reimbursement for all
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by it in enforcing these provisions
whether or not legal action is instituted by Bankshares.  In addition to its
other rights and remedies, Bankshares shall have the right to require the
Executive to account for and pay over to it all compensation, profits, money,
accruals and other benefits derived or received, directly or indirectly, by the
Executive from any action constituting a breach of subsection (a) or subsection
(b) of this Section 9.  It is the desire and intent of the parties that the
provisions of this Section 9 be enforced in full; provided, however, if any
                                                  --------  -------
provisions of this Section 9 relating to the time period, scope of activities or
geographic area of restrictions is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction
to exceed the maximum permissible time period, scope of activities or geographic
area, the maximum time period, scope of activities or geographic area, as the
case may be, shall be reduced to the maximum which such court deems enforceable.
If any provisions of this Section 9 other than those described in the preceding
sentence are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalid or
unenforceable provisions shall be deemed amended (with respect only to the
jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) in such manner as to render
them enforceable and to effectuate as nearly as possible the original intentions
and agreement of the parties.

     (d) Modification of Restrictive Period.  In the event this Agreement is
         ----------------------------------
terminated either (i) by Bankshares at any time for any reason other than for
Cause, as defined in Section 10 of this Agreement, or (ii) by the Executive for
Good Reason, as defined in Section 10 of this Agreement, the term "Restrictive
Period" as described in Section 9(a) of this Agreement shall terminate on the
date all amounts otherwise payable to the Executive either have been paid to him
or should have been paid to him pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     10.  Termination.  During the Term, employment, including without

this Agreement, all compensation, salary, expense reimbursement, and the

     (a)  A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) during
the Term of this Agreement, individuals who at the beginning of such period
constitute the board of directors of Bankshares (the "Beginning PAB Board")

from such business combination or any employee benefit plan or related trust of
Bankshares or such resulting corporation) beneficially owns 25% or more of the
combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of such corporation,
except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the business
combination, or (z) less than a majority of the members of the board of
directors of the corporation resulting from such business combination were
members of the Bankshares Board of Directors at the time of the execution of the
definitive agreement for such merger or consolidation; or, (iv) substantially
all of the assets of Bankshares shall be sold to another entity, person or
group, other than a sale to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bankshares, regardless
of the form of transaction.

     (b)  In the event of a Change in Control and the Executive is employed by
Bankshares at such time, the Executive shall be entitled for a period of 90 days
after the date of the closing of the transaction effecting the Change in Control
and at his election, to either (i) deliver written notice to Bankshares of the

title, compensation, benefits, and location. Any extension of employment under
Section 12(b)(ii) of this Agreement shall be deemed to be an extension of the
Term of this Agreement, during which all of the provisions of this Agreement
shall remain in effect.

     (c)  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Executive
shall receive the compensation set forth in Section 12(c)(1) of this Agreement

Control, or at any time following the occurence of a Change of Control, (the
"Termination of Employment"), Bankshares shall pay to the Executive a lump sum
cash payment in an amount equal to the product of 2 and 11/12 multiplied by the
Executive's annual compensation from Bankshares, including salary, bonuses, all
perquisites, and all other forms of compensation paid to the Executive for his
benefit or the benefit of his family, however characterized, for the fiscal year
during the term of this Agreement for which such compensation was highest (the
"Executive's Annual Salary").  The payment provided for in this Section 12(c)(1)
shall be due and payable to the Executive within 30 days after the date the
Termination of Employment.

          (2) If Bankshares takes any of the following actions during the
following 12 months (such action being deemed to be a termination without
Cause):  (i) a reduction in the Executive's salary, bonus provisions or other
perquisites as were in effect immediately prior to the time period contemplated
in Section 12(c)(1) regarding a Change in Control; (ii) a material change in the
Executive's status, offices, or titles with Bankshares as were in effect on the
effective date of this Agreement, (iii) the failure by Bankshares to increase
the Executive's salary annually in accordance with an established procedure,
(iv) Bankshares' requirement that the Executive relocate more than 50 miles from
the offices of Bankshares at the location set forth in Section B of Appendix I
attached hereto, or (v) the termination of this Agreement by the Executive
pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof.  In any such event, the Executive shall be
entitled to receive all payments provided for in Section 12(c)(1) of this
Agreement.

     (d)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12 of this
Agreement, in no event shall Bankshares pay or be obligated to pay the Executive
an amount which would be an Excess Parachute Payment. The term "Excess Parachute
Payment" shall mean any payment or any portion thereof which would be an "excess
parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and would result in the imposition of an
excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, in the opinion of tax counsel
selected by Bankshares' independent accountants and acceptable to the Executive.
If it is established pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal
Revenue Service administrative appeals proceeding that, notwithstanding the good
faith of Executive and Bankshares in applying the terms of this Section 12 of
this Agreement, a payment (or portion thereof is made is an Excess Parachute
Payment, then, except as hereafter provided, the Executive shall have the
obligation to repay Bankshares upon demand an amount equal to the minimum amount
(but without interest) necessary to insure that no payments made or to be made
by Bankshares pursuant to this Section 12 of this Agreement is an Excess
Parachute Payment; provided, however, that if, in the opinion of tax counsel
selected by Bankshares' independent accountants and acceptable to the Executive,
such payment will not ensure than no Excess Parachute Payment would be made
hereunder, then (i) no such repayment obligation will exist and (2) Bankshares
shall pay to the Executive an additional amount in cash equal to the amount
necessary to cause the amount of the aggregate after tax cash compensation and
benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive to be equal to the aggregate
after tax compensation and benefits he would have received, as if Sections 280G
and 4999 of the Code had not been enacted.
