relating  to  the  Business  of  the  Employer,   whether  or  not   patentable,
copyrightable  or susceptible to other forms of  protection,  which,  during the
term of the  Employee's  employment  with  the  Employer,  the  Employee  makes,
creates,  develops,  writes  or  conceives  whether  during  or  outside  of the
Employee's  regular  working  hours,  either  solely  or  jointly  with  another
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Innovations"). The Employee hereby
covenants  and  agrees  that all such  Innovations  shall be  deemed to be works
made-for-hire for the Employer.

     (b)  The  Employee  hereby  covenants  and  agrees  without  charge  to the

all  Innovations;  (ii) upon the  Employer's  request,  to  execute  promptly  a

reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in any action at law, and that a
breach by the Employee will cause the Employer great and irreparable  injury and
damage. It is agreed that the Employer, in addition to any other remedies, shall

     (b)  The parties hereto agree that by virtue of the special  knowledge that
the Employee will gain about the affairs, business,  operations,  customers, and
other  employees of the  Employer as a  consequence  of the  Employee  rendering
services to the Employer under this Employment  Agreement,  irreparable loss and
damage would be suffered  and  incurred by the  Employer if the Employee  should
breach or violate any of the covenants or agreements  contained in Paragraphs 7,
8, 9, or 10 hereof and that money damage alone would be an inadequate remedy for
the loss and damage  which would be suffered and incurred by the Employer in the
event of such breach or violation;  and the parties hereto  further  acknowledge
and agree that each of such covenants and agreements are reasonably necessary to
protect and preserve the Business of the Employer. The Employee therefore agrees
and consents that, in addition to any other remedies  available to the Employer,
at law or in equity,  the  Employer  shall be entitled to a  restraining  order,
injunction,  or other  similar  remedy  to  prevent  a breach  or  violation  or
contemplated  breach or  violation  by the  Employee of any of the  covenants or
agreements  contained  in  Paragraphs  7, 8, 9, or 10  hereof.  In the event the
Employer  seeks  an  injunction  hereunder,   the  Employee  hereby  waives  any
requirement for the posting of a bond or other security.

     12.  EMPLOYER'S OBLIGATIONS;  ASSIGNMENT.  The Employer's obligation to pay
          the Employee  compensation and other amounts due hereunder and to make
          the  arrangements  provided  herein  shall be  unconditional,  and the
          Employee  shall have no  obligation  whatsoever  to  mitigate  damages
          hereunder. If litigation after a Change of Control shall be brought to
          enforce or interpret any provision contained herein, the Employer,  to
          the extent permitted by applicable law and the Employer's  Articles of
          Incorporation  and Bylaws,  hereby  indemnifies  the  Employee for the
          Employee's  reasonable  attorneys' fees and disbursements  incurred in
          such litigation.  Except as provided herein,  this Agreement shall not
          be terminated by any merger or consolidation  or other  reorganization
          of the  Employer.  In the  event  any such  merger,  consolidation  or
          reorganization  shall  be  accomplished  by  transfer  of  stock or by
          transfer of assets or  otherwise,  the  provisions  of this  Agreement
          shall be binding  upon and inure to the  benefit of the  surviving  or
          resulting  corporation or person. This Agreement shall be binding upon
          and inure to the  benefit  of the  executors,  administrators,  heirs,
          successors and assigns of the parties; provided,  however, that except
          as herein expressly  provided,  this Agreement shall not be assignable
          either by the  Employer  (except to an  Affiliate  of the  Employer in
          which event the Employer shall remain liable if the Affiliate fails to
          meet  any  obligations  to  make  payments  or  provide   benefits  or
          otherwise) or by the Employee.  This  provision  does not prohibit the
          transfer,  encumbrance or other alienation of the corporate securities
          of the Employer.

     13.  WAIVER;   CUMULATIVE  REMEDIES.  A  waiver  by  either  party  of  any
          paragraph,  term or  condition  of this  Employment  Agreement  in any
          instance  shall  not be  deemed  or  construed  to be a waiver of such
          paragraph,  term or  condition  for the  future  or of any  subsequent
          breach thereof, and any such waiver must be in writing. All rights and
          remedies  contained in this  Employment  Agreement are  cumulative and
          none of them  shall be  construed  so as to limit any  other  right or
          remedy of either party.
