                                WARRANT AGREEMENT

            THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT, dated as of December 9, 1999 by and between
eSpeed, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Martin J. Wygod (the
"Grantee").

In accordance with the letter agreement dated as of November 1, 1999 by and
between the Company and the Grantee, and in consideration for the services
rendered pursuant thereto, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee a warrant
(the "Warrant") to purchase shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the
"Shares") on the following terms and conditions:

1.    Number of Shares. The number of Shares subject to the Warrant shall equal
      110,000.

2.    Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to the Warrant shall
      equal $22.00.

3.    Exercisability/Termination. The Warrant shall be fully exercisable only
      during the four year period commencing on the first anniversary hereof and
      ending on the fifth anniversary hereof, at which time any unexercised
      portion of the Warrant shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
      Warrant shall terminate upon the consummation of any transaction whereby
      the Company (or any successor to the Company or substantially all of its
      business) becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of any corporation or other
      entity, unless such other corporation or entity shall continue or assume
      the Warrant (in which case such other corporation or entity shall be
      treated as the Company for all purposes hereunder, and shall make
      appropriate adjustment pursuant to paragraph 5 below in the number and
      kind of shares of stock subject thereto and the exercise price per share
      thereof to reflect consummation of such transaction). If the Warrant is
      not to be so assumed, the Company shall notify the Grantee of consummation
      of such transaction at least ten days in advance thereof.

4.    Exercise Procedures. The Grantee shall exercise the Warrant by delivery of
      written notice to the Company setting forth the number of Shares with
      respect to which the Warrant is to be exercised, together with a certified
      check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company for an amount
      equal to the sum of the exercise price for such Shares.

5.    Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event any
      recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger,
      consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or
      other securities, any special and nonrecurring dividend or distribution
      (whether in the form of cash, securities or other property), liquidation,
      dissolution, or other similar transactions or events, affects the Shares
      such that an adjustment is, in the sole discretion of the Company,
      appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of
      the Grantee, then the Company shall equitably adjust (i) the number and
      kind of Shares that may be delivered or deliverable in respect of the
      Warrant, and/or (ii) the exercise
<PAGE>

      price. In addition, the Company is authorized to make adjustments in the
      terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, the Warrant
      (including, without limitation, cancellation of the Warrant in exchange
      for its in-the-money value, if any, or substitution of the Warrant using
      stock of a successor or other entity) in recognition of unusual or
      nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, an event described in
      the preceding sentence) affecting the Company or any subsidiary of the
      Company or the financial statements of the Company or any subsidiary of
      the Company, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or
      accounting principles.

6.    Restrictions on Issuing Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue
      or deliver Shares upon exercise of the Warrant or take any other action in
      a transaction subject to the requirements of any applicable securities
      law, any requirement under any listing agreement between the Company and
      any national securities exchange or automated quotation system or any
      other law, regulation or contractual obligation of the Company until the
      Company is satisfied that such laws, regulations, and other obligations of
      the Company have been complied with in full. Certificates representing
      Shares issued pursuant to exercise of the Warrant will be subject to such
      stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as may be applicable under
      such laws, regulations and other obligations of the Company, including any
      requirement that a legend or legends be placed thereon.

7.    Limitations on Transferability. The Warrant will not be transferable by
      the Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to a
      beneficiary in the event of the Grantee's death, shall not be pledged,
      mortgaged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, or otherwise subject to
      the claims of creditors; provided, however, that the Warrant or any
      portion thereof may be transferred by the Grantee to (a) trusts
      established for the benefit of his children, stepchildren and
      grandchildren or (b) charities. Any such transferee shall be bound by the
      terms of this Agreement.

8.    Taxes. The Grantee shall be responsible for the payment of all income,
      social security taxes and Medicare taxes related to the exercise of the
      Warrant, and shall indemnify the Company against any liability it may
      incur with respect to such taxes, including by reason of the Company not
      withholding any such taxes on behalf of the Grantee.

9.    No Stockholder Rights. The Warrant shall not confer on the Grantee any of
      the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until Shares are
      duly issued or transferred and delivered to the Grantee upon exercise of
      the Warrant.

10.   Piggyback Registration Rights. If the Company intends to register
      securities of any of its shareholders for an offering to the public while
      the Warrant is exercisable, the Company shall notify the Grantee of its
      intention to do so and, subject to such limitations as shall affect all
      selling shareholders equally and as may be imposed by any underwriter of
      such offering or by law, the Grantee may irrevocably elect to participate
      in such offering on a pari passu basis

                                       2
<PAGE>

      with any other selling shareholders (other than the Investors (as defined
      in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of date of the closing of
      the Company's initial public offering, between the Company and the
      Investors) who shall have priority over the Grantee on any cutback) based
      on the relative number of shares owned and options or warrants vested of
      each of such other selling shareholders (and its affiliates and permitted
      assigns) and the Grantee (the "Pari Passu Percentage"). Such participation
      shall be under the same terms and conditions as may apply to such other
      shareholders, provided that the Grantee shall not have any rights to
      select the underwriter or similar matters given to the other shareholders.
      The Grantee shall make any election within 30 days of receipt of such
      notice of intent to register by a writing given to the Secretary of the
      Company, which writing shall indicate his irrevocable election to sell in
      the intended offering, the number of Shares he wishes to sell and the
      portion thereof to be included by him. The Grantee's notice may not be for
      less than 50% of the number of Shares of the Grantee. The Grantee shall be
      responsible for delivery of the Shares covered by the notice on a timely
      basis. The Company shall only have to give notice of intent to register
      under this paragraph to the Grantee and any notice of intent to
      participate shall only be valid if received from the Grantee (or in the
      event of his death, his executor). The Company may at any time abandon any
      offering. The Company or the underwriter may at any time cutback
      (including, without limitation, limiting the amount to the extent a prior
      amount had not been specified) on the number of shares in any offering in
      which the Company is offering shares and the underwriter may at any time
      cutback (including, without limitation, limiting the amount to the extent
      a prior amount had not been specified) on the number of shares to be
      offered by shareholders in any offering in which the Company is not also
      offering shares. In either such case the Grantee's Shares to be offered
      shall be proportionately reduced so that the amounts offered by the
      Grantee and by other shareholders (and their affiliates and permitted
      assigns) satisfy the Pari Passu Percentage. The Grantee shall have no
      right to participate in any offering by the Company that does not include
      any shares owned by other shareholders and the provision of this paragraph
      shall not apply to any registration on Form S-8, or otherwise with regard
      to securities of compensatory plans of the Company, or any registration
      relating to business acquisitions on Form S-1 or Form S-4. The Grantee
      shall sign such underwriting and other agreements in the same forms as
      signed by the other participating shareholders.

11.   Demand Registration Right. Subject to the Company's qualification to use a
      Form S-3, from and after the date that is one year after the date hereof,
      the Grantee may request, in writing, registration (the "Demand
      Registration") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
      "Securities Act"), of all or a portion of the Shares and the Shares
      underlying the warrant granted on the date hereof to Pamela S. Wygod,
      Trustee under the Trust Agreement dated 12/30/87 for the benefit of Adam
      Yellin ("the "Other Shares") on Form S-3; provided, however, that such
      request must include at least 75% of the aggregate of the Shares and the
      Other Shares. Thereafter, the Company will use all reasonable efforts to
      effect the Demand Registration under the Securities Act within thirty (30)
      days after the receipt of the request. The Company shall not be required
      to effect the Demand Registration requested by the

                                       3
<PAGE>

      Grantee if either (a) within the six (6) months preceding the receipt by
      the Company of such request, the Company has filed a registration
      statement to which the Piggyback Registration rights set forth in Section
      10 hereof apply or (b) such Grantee may sell the Shares and the Other
      Shares requested to be included in the Demand Registration without
      registration under the Securities Act, pursuant to the exemption provided
      by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from
      time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or registration adopted by the
      Commission. The Granter shall be entitle to no more than one (1) Demand
      Registration. The Company agrees to keep the Demand Registration effective
      for a period of sixty (60) days beyond the effective date.

12.   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
      accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

            THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT, dated as of December 9, 1999 by and between
eSpeed, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Pamela S. Wygod,
Trustee under the Trust Agreement dated 12/30/87 for the benefit of Adam Yellin
(the "Grantee").

In accordance with the letter agreement dated as of November 1, 1999 by and
between the Company and the Grantee, and in consideration for the services
rendered pursuant thereto, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee a warrant
(the "Warrant") to purchase shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the
"Shares") on the following terms and conditions:

1.    Number of Shares. The number of Shares subject to the Warrant shall equal
      25,000.

13.   Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to the Warrant shall
      equal $ 22.00.

14.   Exercisability/Termination. The Warrant shall be fully exercisable only
      during the four year period commencing on the first anniversary hereof and
      ending on the fifth anniversary hereof, at which time any unexercised
      portion of the Warrant shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
      Warrant shall terminate upon the consummation of any transaction whereby
      the Company (or any successor to the Company or substantially all of its
      business) becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of any corporation or other
      entity, unless such other corporation or entity shall continue or assume
      the Warrant (in which case such other corporation or entity shall be
      treated as the Company for all purposes hereunder, and shall make
      appropriate adjustment pursuant to paragraph 5 below in the number and
      kind of shares of stock subject thereto and the exercise price per share
      thereof to reflect consummation of such transaction). If the Warrant is
      not to be so assumed, the Company shall notify the Grantee of consummation
      of such transaction at least ten days in advance thereof.

      check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company for an amount
      equal to the sum of the exercise price for such Shares.

      recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger,
      consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or
      other securities, any special and nonrecurring dividend or distribution
      (whether in the form of cash, securities or other property), liquidation,
      dissolution, or other similar transactions or events, affects the Shares
      such that an adjustment is, in the sole discretion of the Company,
      appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of
      the Grantee, then the Company shall equitably adjust (i) the number and
      kind of Shares that may be delivered or deliverable in respect of the
      Warrant, and/or (ii) the exercise price. In addition, the Company is
      authorized to make adjustments in the terms and

<PAGE>

      conditions of, and the criteria included in, the Warrant (including,
      without limitation, cancellation of the Warrant in exchange for its
      in-the-money value, if any, or substitution of the Warrant using stock of
      a successor or other entity) in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring
      events (including, without limitation, an event described in the preceding
      sentence) affecting the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or the
      financial statements of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or
      in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting
      principles.

17.   Restrictions on Issuing Stock. The Company shall not be obligated to issue
      or deliver Shares upon exercise of the Warrant or take any other action in
      a transaction subject to the requirements of any applicable securities
      law, any requirement under any listing agreement between the Company and
      any national securities exchange or automated quotation system or any
      other law, regulation or contractual obligation of the Company until the
      Company is satisfied that such laws, regulations, and other obligations of
      the Company have been complied with in full. Certificates representing
      Shares issued pursuant to exercise of the Warrant will be subject to such
      stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as may be applicable under
      such laws, regulations and other obligations of the Company, including any
      requirement that a legend or legends be placed thereon.

18.   Limitations on Transferability. The Warrant will not be transferable by
      the Grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to a
      beneficiary in the event of the Grantee's death, shall not be pledged,
      mortgaged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, or otherwise subject to
      the claims of creditors; provided, however, that the Warrant or any
      portion thereof may be transferred by the Grantee to (a) trusts
      established for the benefit of his children, stepchildren and
      grandchildren or (b) charities. Any such transferee shall be bound by the
      terms of this Agreement.

19.   Taxes. The Grantee shall be responsible for the payment of all income,
      social security taxes and Medicare taxes related to the exercise of the
      Warrant, and shall indemnify the Company against any liability it may
      incur with respect to such taxes, including by reason of the Company not
      withholding any such taxes on behalf of the Grantee.

20.   No Stockholder Rights. The Warrant shall not confer on the Grantee any of

      intention to do so and, subject to such limitations as shall affect all
      selling shareholders equally and as may be imposed by any underwriter of
      such offering or by law, the Grantee may irrevocably elect to participate
      in such offering on a pari passu basis with any other selling shareholders
      (other than the Investors (as defined in the Registration

                                        2
<PAGE>

      Rights Agreement dated as of the date of the closing of the Company's
      initial public offering, between the Company and the Investors) who shall
      have priority over the Grantee on any cutback) based on the relative
      number of shares owned and options or warrants vested of each of such
      other selling shareholders (and its affiliates and permitted assigns) and
      the Grantee (the "Pari Passu Percentage"). Such participation shall be
      under the same terms and conditions as may apply to such other
      shareholders, provided that the Grantee shall not have any rights to
      select the underwriter or similar matters given to the other shareholders.
      The Grantee shall make any election within 30 days of receipt of such
      notice of intent to register by a writing given to the Secretary of the
      Company, which writing shall indicate his irrevocable election to sell in
      the intended offering, the number of Shares he wishes to sell and the
      portion thereof to be included by him. The Grantee's notice may not be for
      less than 50% of the number of Shares of the Grantee. The Grantee shall be
      responsible for delivery of the Shares covered by the notice on a timely
      basis. The Company shall only have to give notice of intent to register
      under this paragraph to the Grantee and any notice of intent to
      participate shall only be valid if received from the Grantee (or in the
      event of his death, his executor). The Company may at any time abandon any
      offering. The Company or the underwriter may at any time cutback
      (including, without limitation, limiting the amount to the extent a prior
      amount had not been specified) on the number of shares in any offering in
      which the Company is offering shares and the underwriter may at any time
      cutback (including, without limitation, limiting the amount to the extent
      a prior amount had not been specified) on the number of shares to be
      offered by shareholders in any offering in which the Company is not also
      offering shares. In either such case the Grantee's Shares to be offered
      shall be proportionately reduced so that the amounts offered by the
      Grantee and by other shareholders (and their affiliates and permitted
      assigns) satisfy the Pari Passu Percentage. The Grantee shall have no
      right to participate in any offering by the Company that does not include
      any shares owned by other shareholders and the provision of this paragraph
      shall not apply to any registration on Form S-8, or otherwise with regard
      to securities of compensatory plans of the Company, or any registration
      relating to business acquisitions on Form S-1 or Form S-4. The Grantee
      shall sign such underwriting and other agreements in the same forms as
      signed by the other participating shareholders.

22.   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
      accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT dated as of January 21, 1997,
                       between PACKERWARE CORPORATION, a Kansas corporation (the
                       "Corporation"), and BRUCE J. SIMS (the "Employee").

        Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated
as of January 14, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), among Berry Plastics
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Berry"), PackerWare Acquisition
Corporation, a Kansas corporation ("Acquisition Sub"), PackerWare Corporation, a
Kansas corporation ("PackerWare"), and the stockholders of Packerware, on the
date hereof Acquisition Sub merged with and into PackerWare, with PackerWare
being the surviving corporation (for ease of reference, prior to the merger
PackerWare Corporation is referred to herein as "PackerWare" and after the
merger PackerWare Corporation is referred to herein as the "Corporation"). As a
result of such merger, the Corporation became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Berry. Prior to the execution hereof, the Employee has been an officer of
Packerware, and after the date hereof, he will be an officer of the Corporation,
and as such has substantial experience that has value to the Corporation. The
Corporation desires to employ the Employee, and the Employee desires to accept
such employment, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set
forth. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
covenants and obligations hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

        1. EMPLOYMENT; TERMINATION OF PREVIOUS AGREEMENT. (a) Effective as of
the date hereof (such date, the "Commencement Date," for all purposes hereof),
the Corporation shall employ the Employee, and the Employee shall accept
employment by the Corporation, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth.

        (b) Reference is made to the Employment Agreement dated September 1994,
as amended on March 5, 1996 (the "Old Employment Agreement"), between the
Employee and PackerWare. The Employee, PackerWare and the Corporation agree that
the Old Employment Agreement is hereby terminated and of no further force or
effect. In addition, the Employee hereby releases and forever discharges
PackerWare and the Corporation from all claims and obligations arising out of
the Old Employment Agreement.

        2. TERM. Subject to earlier termination as provided herein, the
employment of the Employee hereunder shall commence on the Commencement Date and
terminate on January __, 2002. Such period of employment is hereinafter referred
to as the "Employment Period."

        3. DUTIES. During the Employment Period, the Employee shall be initially
employed by the Corporation as the Vice President-Sales and Marketing,
Housewares, and shall perform such duties and services consistent with such
position as may reasonably be assigned to the Employee by the Chief Executive
Officer of the Corporation or his designees. The Employee will be primarily
responsible for the housewares and lawn and garden sectors of the Corporation's
<PAGE>
business, as well as selected aspects of the drink cup business, all as
determined by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

        4. TIME TO BE DEVOTED TO EMPLOYMENT. Except for vacation, absences due
to temporary illness and absences resulting from causes set forth in Section 7,
the Employee shall devote the Employee's business time, attention and energies
on a full-time basis to the performance of the duties and responsibilities
referred to in Section 3. The Employee shall not during the Employment Period be
engaged in any other business activity which, in the reasonable judgment of the
executive officers of the Corporation, would conflict with the ability of the
Employee to perform his duties under this Agreement, whether or not such
activity is pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage. The
Corporation understands that the Employee is a member of the Board of Directors
and a shareholder of Innovative Interactive Inc. ("Innovative"), a promotion
company, and the Corporation understands and agrees that the Employee may devote
some time and attention to Innovative; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Employee is
still bound by, and must comply with, the provisions of this Agreement
(including, without limitation, this Section 4 and Section 11) notwithstanding
such involvement with Innovative.

        5. COMPENSATION; BENEFITS; REIMBURSEMENT.

        (A) BASE SALARY. During the Employment Period, the Corporation shall pay
to the Employee an annual base salary of $155,000, which shall be subject to
review and, at the option of persons having authority regarding such matters at
the Corporation, subject to increase (such salary, as the same may be increased
from time to time as aforesaid, being referred to herein as the "Base Salary").
The Base Salary shall be payable in such installments (but not less frequent
than monthly) as is the policy of the Corporation with respect to employees of
the Corporation at substantially the same level of employment as the Employee.

        (B) BONUS. During the Employment Period, the Employee shall be entitled
to participate in all bonus and incentive programs of the Corporation (the
"Programs") generally available from time to time to employees of the
Corporation at substantially the same level of employment as the Employee, such
participation to be in substantially the same manner as the participation
therein by such employees.

        (C) BENEFITS. During the Employment Period, the Employee shall be
entitled to four weeks vacation per year and such other benefits (together with
the Programs, the "Benefit Arrangements") as are generally made available from
time to time to other employees of the Corporation at substantially the same

of a vehicle provided by the Corporation.

        (D) REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES. During the Employment Period, the

practices of the Corporation in effect from time to time with respect to other
employees of the Corporation at substantially the same level of employment as
the Employee, for all reasonable and necessary traveling expenses and other
disbursements incurred by him for or on behalf of the Corporation in connection
with the performance of his duties hereunder upon presentation by the Employee
to the Corporation of appropriate documentation therefor.

        (E) DEDUCTIONS. The Corporation shall deduct from any payments to be
made by it to the Employee under this Section 5 or Section 9 any amounts
required to be withheld in respect of any Federal, state or local income or
other taxes.

any location more than 50 miles outside of Lawrence, Kansas without the
Employee's prior consent.

        7. DISABILITY OR DEATH OF THE EMPLOYEE. (a) If, during the Employment
Period, the Employee is incapacitated or disabled by accident, sickness or
otherwise (hereinafter, a "Disability") so as to render the Employee mentally or
physically incapable of performing the services required to be performed under
this Agreement for 90 days in any period of 360 consecutive days, the
Corporation may, at any time thereafter, at its option, terminate the employment
of the Employee under this Agreement immediately upon giving the Employee notice
to that effect, it being understood that upon such termination the Employee
shall be eligible for the disability benefits provided by the Corporation.

        (b) If the Employee dies during the Employment Period, the Termination
Date (as defined below) shall be deemed to be the date of the Employee's death.

        8. TERMINATION. (a) The Corporation may terminate the employment of the
Employee and all of the Corporation's obligations under this Agreement (except
as hereinafter provided) at any time for "cause" by giving the Employee notice
of such termination, with reasonable specificity of the grounds therefor. For
the purposes of this Section 8, "cause" shall mean (i) willful misconduct with
respect to the business and affairs of the Corporation or any subsidiary or
affiliate thereof, insubordination or willful neglect of duties (other than
neglect due solely to the Employee's illness or other involuntary mental or
physical disability), including the Employee's violation of any material
Corporation policy, (ii) material breach of any of the provisions of this
Agreement, (iii) conviction for a crime involving moral turpitude or fraud, or
(iv) the material untruth, inaccuracy or breach of any representation or
warranty of PackerWare contained in Section 5 of the Merger Agreement that (A)
results or could reasonably be expected to result in losses, expenses, damages
or other liability incurred by the Corporation in an amount greater than
$250,000 and (B) arose out of facts or circumstances of which the Employee had
knowledge or should have had knowledge in the exercise of his duties as
President of PackerWare. A termination pursuant to this Section 8(a) shall take
effect immediately upon the giving of the notice contemplated hereby.

        (b) The Corporation may terminate the employment of the Employee and all
of the Corporation's obligations under this Agreement (except as hereinafter
provided) at any time during the Employment Period without "cause" by giving the
Employee written notice of such termination, to be effective 30 days following
the giving of such written notice.

        (c) The Employee may terminate the employment of the Employee hereunder
at any time during the Employment Period by giving the Corporation at least 30
days' prior written notice of such termination, such termination to be effective
on the date specified in such notice, whereupon all of the Corporation's
obligations hereunder shall terminate (except as hereinafter provided). For
convenience of reference, the date upon which any termination of the

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
employment of the Employee pursuant to Section 7 or 8 hereof shall be effective
shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Termination Date."

        9. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. (a) Upon the effective date of
termination of the Employee's employment pursuant to Section 7, Section 8(a) or
Section 8(c) hereof, neither the Employee nor the Employee's beneficiaries or
estate shall have any further rights under this Agreement or any claims against
the Corporation arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive,
within 30 days of the Termination Date:

                (i) the unpaid portion of the Base Salary provided for in
        Section 5(a), computed on a PRO RATA basis to the Termination Date;

                (ii) reimbursement for any expenses for which the Employee shall
        not have theretofore been reimbursed, as provided in Section 5(d); and

                (iii) the unpaid portion of any amounts earned by the Employee
        prior to the Termination Date pursuant to any Benefit Arrangement;
        PROVIDED, HOWEVER, unless specifically provided otherwise in this
        Section 9, the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any benefits
        under a Benefit Arrangement that have accrued during a fiscal year if
        the terms of such Benefit Arrangement require that the beneficiary be
        employed by the Corporation as of the end of such fiscal year.

        (b) Upon the termination of the Employee's employment pursuant to
Section 8(b), neither the Employee nor the Employee's beneficiaries or estate
shall have any further rights under this Agreement or any claims against the
Corporation arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive:

                (i) the unpaid portion of the Base Salary, computed on a PRO
        RATA basis, for the period from the Commencement Date until the later to
        occur of (A) the third anniversary of the Commencement Date or (B) the
        first anniversary of the Termination Date (as defined in Section 8(c)),
        payable in such installments as the Base Salary was paid prior to the
        Termination Date (it being understood and agreed that all of such
        installments shall be paid regardless of whether the Employee is
        subsequently employed, provided that such employment does not violate
        the provisions of Section 11 hereof);

                (ii) the amount of the bonus payment, if any, attributable to
        the fiscal year during which the Termination Date occurred, computed on
        a PRO RATA basis, payable at such time as the bonus payment is
        customarily paid by the Corporation to its employees; and

                (iii) the payments, if any, referred to in Sections 9(a)(ii) and
        (iii), to the extent not covered by Sections 9(b)(i) and (ii) above.

        (c) The Employee's obligations under Sections 10, 11 and 12 of this
Agreement, and the Corporation's obligations under this Section 9, shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Employee's
employment hereunder.

        10. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. (a) From and after the date hereof, the
Employee shall not use or disclose to any person, firm, corporation or other
business entity (other than any officer, director, employee, affiliate or
representative of the Corporation), except as required in connection with the
performance of the Employee's duties under and in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement and as required by law or judicial process, any Confidential
Information (as hereinafter defined) for any reason or purpose whatsoever, nor
shall the Employee make use of any of the Confidential Information for the
Employee's purposes or for the benefit of any person or entity except the
Corporation or any subsidiary thereof.

        (b) For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" shall
mean (i) the Intellectual Property Rights (as hereinafter defined) of the
Corporation and its subsidiaries and (ii) all other information of a proprietary
or confidential nature relating to the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof, or
the business or assets of the Corporation or any such subsidiary, including,
without limitation, books, records, customer and registered user lists, vendor
lists, supplier lists, distribution channels, pricing information, cost
information, marketing plans, strategies, forecasts, financial statements,
budgets and projections, other than information which is generally within the
public domain at the time of the receipt thereof by the Employee or at the time
of use or disclosure of such Confidential Information by the Employee other than
as a result of the breach by the Employee of the Employee's agreement hereunder.

        (c) As used herein, the term "Intellectual Property Rights" means all
industrial and intellectual property rights, including, without limitation,
patents, patent applications, patent rights, trademarks, trademark applications,
trade names, service marks, service mark applications, copyrights, copyright
applications, know-how, certificates of public convenience and necessity,
franchises, licenses, trade secrets, proprietary processes and formulae,
inventions, development tools, marketing materials, instructions, confidential
information, trade dress, logos and designs and all documentation and media
constituting, describing or relating to the foregoing, including, without
limitation, manuals, memoranda and records.

        11. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. (a) The Employee acknowledges and recognizes
that during the Employment Period he will be privy to Confidential Information
and further acknowledges and recognizes that the Corporation would find it
extremely difficult to replace the Employee. Accordingly, in consideration of
the premises contained herein and the consideration to be received by the
Employee hereunder (including, without limitation, the severance compensation
described in Section 9(b)(i), if any), without the prior written consent of the
Corporation, the Employee shall not, at any time during the employer/employee
relationship between the Corporation and the Employee and the period beginning
on the date of termination of such employer/employee relationship and ending on
the later to occur of (x) the third anniversary of the Commencement Date and (y)
the first anniversary of such date of termination, (i) directly or indirectly
engage in, represent in any way, or be connected with, any Competing Business
directly competing with the business of the Corporation or any subsidiary or
affiliate thereof within the state in which the Employee is employed or any
other state of the United States, whether such engagement shall be as an
officer, director, owner, employee, partner, affiliate or other participant in
any Competing Business, (ii) assist others in engaging in any Competing Business
in the manner described in clause (i) above, (iii) induce other employees of the
Corporation or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof to terminate their employment
with the Corporation or any such subsidiary or affiliate or to engage in any
Competing Business or (iv)

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
induce any entity or person with which the Corporation or any subsidiary or any
affiliate thereof has a business relationship, contractual or otherwise, to
terminate or alter such business relationship.

        (b) As used herein, "Competing Business" shall mean any business
involving the sale of products in any city or county in any state of the United
States if such business or the products sold by it are competitive, directly or
indirectly, at the time of the Termination of Employment with (i) the business
of the Corporation or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, (ii) any of the
products manufactured, sold or distributed by the Corporation or any subsidiary
or affiliate thereof or (iii) any products or business being developed or
conducted by the Corporation or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof.

        (c) The Employee understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit
his ability to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the
Corporation or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, but he nevertheless believes
that he has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other
benefits as an employee of the Corporation, under the terms of the Merger
Agreement and as otherwise provided hereunder to justify clearly such
restrictions which, in any event (given his education, skills and ability), the
Employee does not believe would prevent him from earning a living.

        12. RIGHT TO INVENTIONS. The Employee shall promptly disclose, grant and
assign to the Corporation for its sole use and benefit any and all inventions,
improvements, technical information and suggestions reasonably relating to the
business of the Corporation or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof
(collectively, the "Inventions") which the Employee may develop or acquire
during the period of the employer/employee relationship between the Corporation
and the Employee (whether or not during usual working hours), together with all
patent applications, letters patent, copyrights and reissues thereof that may at
any time be granted for or upon the Inventions. In connection therewith:

        (a) the Employee recognizes and agrees that the Inventions shall be the
sole property of the Corporation, and the Corporation shall be the sole owner of
all patent applications, letters patent, copyrights and reissues thereof that
may at any time be granted for or on the Inventions;

        (b) the Employee hereby assigns to the Corporation any rights the
Employee may have in or acquire to the Inventions;

        (c) the Employee shall, at the expense of the Corporation, promptly
execute and deliver such applications, assignments, descriptions and other
instruments as may be necessary or proper in the opinion of the Corporation to
vest title to the Inventions and any patent applications, patents, copyrights,
reissues or other proprietary rights related thereto in the Corporation and to
enable it to obtain and maintain the entire right and title thereto throughout
the world;

        (d) the Employee recognizes and agrees that the Inventions to the extent
copyrightable shall constitute works for hire under the copyright laws of the
United States; and

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
        (e) the Employee shall render to the Corporation, at its expense, all
such assistance as it may require in the prosecution of applications for said
patents, copyrights, reissues or other proprietary rights, in the prosecution or
defense of interferences which may be declared involving any said applications,
patents, copyrights or other proprietary rights and in any litigation in which
the Corporation may be involved relating to the Inventions.
