         information concerning the organization and functioning of the business
         of the Company, and that such information is a valuable trade secret
         and the sole property of the Company. Accordingly, except as required
         by law, legal process, or in connection with any litigation between the
         parties hereto with respect to matters arising out of this agreement,
         you agree that you will not, at any time during your employment with
         the Company or after such employment, whether such employment is
         terminated as a result of your resignation or discharge, disclose or
         furnish any such information to any person other than an officer of the
         Company, and you will make no use of any such information for your
         personal benefit.

         The Company licenses the use of computer software from a variety of
         outside companies and, unless authorized by the software developer,
         does not have the right to reproduce it. You may use software only in
         accordance with the license agreement, whether on local area networks
         or on multiple machines. If you learn of any misuse of software or
         related documentation within the Company, you must notify your
         department manager. If you make, acquire or use unauthorized copies of
         such computer software, you shall be disciplined as appropriate under
         the circumstances. Such discipline may include termination.

         You agree that for a period of two years from the date of voluntary or
         involuntary termination, you will not solicit on your behalf, or on
         behalf of a third party, any then current employee of the Company, to
         leave his or her employment with the Company for employment with
         another employer.

         You further agree that in the event of such termination, whether
         voluntary or involuntary, you will not remove from the offices of the
         Company any personal property that does not rightfully and legally
         belong to you and that you will return on the date of your said
         termination, to an authorized representative of the Company, any and
         all property belonging to the Company. You also agree that you will
         provide passwords on request for personal computer files.

10.      At-Will Employment. You understand and agree that you are being
         employed for an unspecified term and that this is an "at-will"
         employment relationship. This means that either you or the Company may
         terminate your employment at will at any time with or without cause or
         notice. This at-will aspect of your employment, which includes the
         right of the Company to transfer, discipline, demote and/or reassign,
         may not be modified, amended or rescinded except by an individual
         written agreement signed by both you and the Company's President. This
         letter sets forth the entire agreement between the parties and there
         are no prior or contemporaneous representations, promises or
         conditions, whether oral or written, to the contrary.

This offer of employment is contingent upon the satisfactory completion of a
background check, verifying that the information provided by you on your
application and resume is accurate and correct. The Company reserves the right
to withdraw an offer of employment, or to terminate employment, at any time
based on information arising from the background check.

If you are in agreement with the terms of this letter, please sign and return
one copy of the enclosed letter to the Human Resource Department to effect the
commencement of your employment. If you have any questions, please contact me at
your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,

/s/ Randall L. Herrel, Sr.
