         11. UNIQUE NATURE OF SERVICES AND COVENANTS AND EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS.

                  (a) It is agreed that the services to be rendered by the
Employee under the terms of this Employment Agreement are of a unique, unusual,
special and extraordinary nature, and of a peculiar value, the loss of which
cannot be 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

                                       8
<PAGE>

remedies, shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent
a breach of this Employment Agreement by the Employee.

                  (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.
