<PAGE>

      (ii) your base compensation is reduced by an amount greater than five
percent (5%) of your Base Compensation prior to such reduction.

       "CHANGE OF CONTROL"  shall mean the  occurrence  of any of the  following
events:

      (i)   The acquisition, other than from the Company (which term for
            purposes of this Subsection (i) includes any successor corporation),
            or any subsidiary thereof by any person or group (as such terms are
            used for the purposes of Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities
            Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 ACT")) of beneficial
            ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
            1934 Act) of securities with voting power equal to fifty percent
            (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then
            outstanding voting securities;

      (ii)  Approval by the Company's stockholders of (a) a merger or
            consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation if the
            stockholders of the Company, immediately before such merger or
            consolidation do not, immediately after such merger or
            consolidation, own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent
            (50%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
            securities of the corporation resulting from such merger or
            consolidation in substantially the same proportion as their
            ownership of the combined voting power of the voting securities of
            the Company outstanding immediately before such merger or
            consolidation or (b) dissolution of the Company or an agreement for
            the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
            assets of the Company.

            Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  a Change in  Control  shall not be
            deemed to occur solely  because  fifty  percent (50%) or more of the
            combined voting power of the Company's then  outstanding  securities
            is acquired by (i) a trustee or other fiduciary  holding  securities
            under one or more employee  benefit plans  maintained by the Company
            or  any  of  its   subsidiaries  or  (ii)  any  corporation   which,
            immediately  prior  to  such  acquisition,   is  owned  directly  or
            indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in the same proportion
            as their ownership of stock in the Company immediately prior to such
            acquisition.

            For purposes of the foregoing definition, the Company's stockholders
            are deemed to be the indirect owners of any assets,  including stock
            interests, held by the Company or any subsidiary thereof.

                  REPRESENTATION; NON-COMPETITION; CONFIDENTIALITY

      5.1 CFO Representation. The CFO represents that the CFO's execution of
this Agreement and the performance of his duties required hereunder will neither
be a breach of any other employment or other agreement nor a breach of any
non-competition or similar agreement.

      5.2 Non-Competition. (a) The CFO agrees that during the Term and for the
period of one (1) year thereafter, he will not engage, directly or directly,
either as principal, agent, consultant, proprietor, creditor, stockholder,
director, officer or employee, or participate in the ownership, management,
operation or control of any business which directly or indirectly competes with
the business of the Company. The CFO acknowledges and agrees that the current
market for the Company's business extends throughout the world and that it is
therefore reasonable to prohibit the CFO from competing with the Company
anywhere in such territory. This Section shall not apply to the CFO's ownership
of less than five percent (5%) of the capital stock of a company having a class
of capital stock which is traded on any national stock exchange or on the
over-the-counter market.

            (b) During  the Term and for the period of one (1) year  thereafter,
the CFO agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly,  (i) solicit, divert or
recruit or encourage any of the employees of the Company,  or any person who was
an employee of the Company  during the Term,  to leave the employ of the Company
or terminate or alter their contractual relationship in a way that is adverse to
the Company's  interests,  (ii) solicit or divert business from the Company,  or
assist any person or entity in doing so or attempting to do so or (iii) cause or
seek to cause any person or entity to  refrain  from  dealing or doing  business
with the Company or assist any person or entity in doing so or  attempting to do
so.

      5.3  Confidential  Information.  (a) The CFO agrees  that he shall hold in
strict  confidence and shall not at any time during or after his employment with
the Company, directly or indirectly, (i) reveal, report, publicize, disclose, or
transfer any  Confidential  Information (as described below) or any part thereof
to any person or entity,  (ii) use any of the  Confidential  Information  or any
part thereof for any purpose other than in the course of his duties on behalf of
the  Company,  or (iii)  assist any person or entity  other than the  Company to
secure any benefit from the  Confidential  Information or any part thereof.  All
Confidential  Information (regardless of the medium retained) and all abstracts,
summaries or writings based upon or reflecting any  Confidential  Information in
the CFO's  possession  shall be delivered by the CFO to the Company upon request
therefor  by the Company or  automatically  upon the  expiration  of the Term or
termination of this Agreement.

             (b) For  purposes  of this  Agreement,  "Confidential  Information"
shall mean any information relating to the business, operations, affairs, assets
or condition  (financial  or  otherwise)  of the Company  which is not generally
known by non-company  personnel,  or is proprietary or in any way  constitutes a
trade secret (regardless of the medium in which information is maintained) which
the CFO  develops or which the CFO obtains  knowledge of or access to through or
as a result of the CFO's relationship with the Company. Confidential Information
specifically  includes,  without  limitation,   business  and  marketing  plans,
financings, cost and pricing information, supplier information, all source code,
system and user documentation,  and other technical documentation  pertaining to
the hardware and software programs of the Company, including any proposed design
and  specifications  for future  products and products in  development,  and all
other technical and business information considered confidential by the Company.
Confidential  Information  shall not include any  information  that is generally
publicly available or otherwise in the public domain other than as a result of a
breach by the CFO of his obligations hereunder.  For purposes of this Agreement,
information shall not be deemed Confidential Information if (i) such information
is available from public sources, (ii) such information is received from a third
party not under an obligation to keep such  information  confidential,  or (iii)
the  CFO  can   conclusively   demonstrate   that  such   information  had  been
independently developed by the CFO.

                                       5

      5.4  Remedies.   The  CFO  agrees  and  acknowledges  that  the  foregoing
restrictions and the duration and the territorial  scope thereof as set forth in
this  Sections  5.2 and 5.3 are under all of the  circumstances  reasonable  and
necessary for the protection of the Company and its business.  In the event that
the CFO shall breach any of the  provisions  of Sections 5.2 or 5.3, in addition
to and without limiting or waiving any other remedies  available to the Company,
at law or in equity,  the  Company  shall be entitled  to  immediate  injunctive
relief in any court,  domestic  or  foreign,  having the  capacity to grant such
relief,  to  restrain  any such breach or  threatened  breach and to enforce the
provision of this Agreement.

                                     ARTICLE VI

            8.1 The Executive's employment shall terminate upon the death of the
Executive.   The  Company  may  terminate   the   Executive's   employment   for
"Disability".  For purposes of this Employment  Agreement,  a "Disability" shall
mean  physical  or  mental  disability   preventing  Executive  from  performing
Executive's  duties  hereunder  for  a  consecutive  period  of 6  months  or an
aggregate  of 180 days in any 12  month  period  as  determined  by the  written
opinion of a  physician  selected  in good faith by the Company and agreed to by
Executive,  his  family or his duly  appointed  personal  representative,  which
Employment Agreement is not to be unreasonably withheld.

            8.2 The Company may terminate the Executive's employment for "Cause"
at any time by providing  written notice of such termination to the Executive in
accordance  with the provisions of this  Employment  Agreement.  For purposes of
this Employment Agreement, the term "Cause" shall mean any of the following: (1)
Executive has been  convicted by, or shall have entered a plea of guilty or nolo
contendere,  in a court  of  competent  and  final  jurisdiction  for any  crime
involving moral turpitude, fraud, embezzlement,  misappropriation,  or any other
felony or crime  punishable  by  imprisonment,  (2)  Executive  shall commit any
material act of fraud, embezzlement or other act of misappropriation,  which act
causes harm to the Company,  or (3) Executive  shall  continually and habitually
neglect  Executive's duties and shall fail to correct such breach within 30 days
after written notice of such habitual and continual neglect,  then, in each such
case, the Company shall have the right to give Notice of Termination (as defined
below) of the Executive's employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
may  not  terminate  the   Executive's   employment   for  Cause  unless  (a)  a
determination  that  Cause  exists is made and  approved  by a  majority  of the
members  of the  Board of  Directors,  (b)  Executive  is given at least 10 days
written  notice  of  the  Board  of  Directors   meeting  called  to  make  such
determination,  (c) Executive and his legal counsel are given the opportunity to
address such meeting, and (d) the conduct constituting Cause is capable of cure,
and such conduct is not cured to the Board of Directors'  satisfaction within 30
days  following  receipt  of  written  notice  delivered  by the  Company to the
Executive  specifying in reasonable  detail the nature of the conduct and states
that it is grounds for  termination  for Cause.  The Company may give  Executive
Notice  of  Termination  for  Cause  only  after  the  conditions  set  forth in
sub-clauses (a), (b), (c), and (d) of this Section 8.2 have been met.

            8.3 The Executive may terminate his employment  hereunder by written
notice  given to the Company for Good Reason.  For  purposes of this  Agreement,
"Good Reason" shall mean any material  breach of this  Agreement by the Company,
including without limitation:  (i) any reduction in the Executive's Salary; (ii)
the Company  requires the  Executive to be based at an office or location  other
than New York  County,  New York,  Rockland  County,  New York,  or  Westchester
County,  New York, except for travel  reasonably  required in the performance of
the  Executive's  responsibilities;  or  (iii)  the  Company  requires  that the
Executive  perform  duties not  commensurate  with his status as CEO;  provided,
however,  that a material  breach of this  Employment  Agreement  by the Company
shall not  constitute  Good Reason unless the Executive  notifies the Company in
writing of the breach, specifying in detail the nature of the breach and stating
that such breach is grounds  for Good  Reason,  and unless the Company  fails to
cure such  breach  within 10 days after such  notice is sent or given under this
Agreement.

<PAGE>

            8.4 Any termination by the Company under this  Employment  Agreement
shall be  communicated  by Notice of  Termination  to the  Executive.  Except as
otherwise  specifically  and expressly  provided in this  Employment  Agreement,
"Date of Termination" shall mean the actual effective date of any termination of
this Employment  Agreement.  If the Company  terminates the Executive for Cause,
the Date of  Termination  shall be the close of  business  on the day that is 30
days after receipt by the Executive of Notice of Termination  for Cause.  If the
Company  terminate the Executive without Cause, the Date of Termination shall be
the close of business on the day that is 90 days following  receipt by Executive
of Notice of  Termination  without Cause.  If the Executive  terminates for Good
Reason,  the Date of Termination  shall be the close of business on the day that
is the 10th  business  day  after  written  notice is given in  accordance  with
Section 8.4, unless cured by the Company. No Notice of Termination without Cause
shall be effective  if sent prior to the first  anniversary  of this  Employment
Agreement. If the Company terminates the Executive's employment because of death
or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the close of business on the day
that is 90 days following the death or Disability of the Executive. For purposes
of this Employment  Agreement,  a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice in
writing  that  shall  indicate  the  specific  termination   provision  in  this
Employment Agreement relied upon to terminate the Executive's employment and, if
applicable,  shall set forth in  reasonable  detail the facts and  circumstances
claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive's  employment  under
the provision so indicated.

      9.    Compensation and Benefits Payable Following Termination.

            If the Executive's  employment is terminated prior to the expiration
of the Term, the Executive (or his surviving  spouse,  beneficiary or estate, as
the case may be) shall receive the following compensation and benefits:

            9.1 Upon any termination of the Executive's employment under Section
8 hereof,  the Company shall pay the Executive (or his personal  representative)
any accrued but unpaid Salary for services  rendered to the Date of Termination,
the amount of any compensation  previously earned and deferred by the Executive,
any earned but unpaid  incentive  compensation for any calendar year ended prior
to the year in which his employment terminates,  any accrued but unpaid expenses
required to be reimbursed under this Employment Agreement,  and any vacation pay
accrued  to the  date  of the  termination.  The  Company  shall  pay all of the
foregoing amounts, except for earned but unpaid Additional Compensation,  within
30 days after the Date of Termination. Earned but unpaid Additional Compensation
for any  calendar  year  ended  prior  to the  year  in  which  the  Executive's
employment  terminates  shall  be paid at the  same  time  as the  Company  pays
Additional Compensation to its other senior executives.

If the Executive's employment is terminated for any reason prior to the last day
of a  calendar  year,  the  Company  shall pay the  Executive  (or his  personal
representative) as severance pay, an amount equal to the pro rata portion (based
on the number of days of employment prior to the termination date) of the annual
Additional  Compensation that would have been payable to the Executive if he had
continued in employment  through the end of the calendar year.  Such amount will
be paid at the  same  time  and in the  same  manner  as the  annual  Additional
Compensation for such year is paid to other senior executive officers.

            9.2 In the event that the  Executive's  employment  is terminated by
the  Company  without  Cause  pursuant  to Section 8 above,  the  Company  shall
continue to provide the  Executive the Salary and benefits set forth in Sections
4.1 and 5.2 above  that would have been  payable to him if he had  continued  to
perform his normal duties and  responsibilities  on a full-time  basis until the
earlier  of (i) one  year  from  the date of this  Employment  Agreement  or the
expiration of the Term or (ii) his death.

            9.3 If the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, then
the Company shall pay to the Executive as severance pay the following amounts:

            (i) his then unpaid Salary,  in accordance  with the regular payroll
practices of the Company,  through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect
as of the Date of Termination;

            (ii) after the  Termination  Date,  the Executive  shall continue to
receive his Salary,  in  accordance  with the regular  payroll  practices of the
Company, at the rate that is in effect as of the Date of Termination through the
six month period following the Date of Termination; and

            (iii) the payments set forth in Section 9.3 above.

            9.4  Except as may  otherwise  be  provided  under  this  Employment
Agreement,

            (i) any benefits to which the Executive may be entitled  pursuant to
the plans,  policies  and  arrangements  referred to in Section 5 above shall be
determined  and paid in  accordance  with the terms of such plans,  policies and
arrangements; and

            (ii)  the  Executive  shall  have no  right  to  receive  any  other
compensation,  or to participate in any other plan, arrangement or benefit, with
respect to future periods after such termination or resignation.

      10.   Restrictive Covenants.

            10.1 The Executive  acknowledges that (i) the business activities of
the Image Group include and are expected to include the  manufacture and sale of
celebrity image memorabilia and sports branded products ("Sports Memorabilia and
Branding  Business"),   (ii)  he  will  have  a  major  responsibility  for  the
development,  management and operation of the business of the Company, (iii) the
Company's business is intended to be international in scope, (iv) his employment
by the Company will bring him into close contact with  confidential  information
of the Company, its Affiliates,  its customers,  and its suppliers,  and (v) the
agreements  and covenants  contained in this Section 10 are essential to protect
the business  interests of the Company and that the Company would not enter into
this Employment  Agreement but for such  agreements and covenants.  Accordingly,
the Executive agrees as follows:

<PAGE>

            10.2  Except  as  otherwise   specifically   provided  for  in  this
Employment Agreement,  throughout the Employment Period and the Post-Termination
Period (as such terms are defined  below) the Executive  shall not,  directly or
indirectly,  (i)  engage in any aspect of the Sports  Memorabilia  and  Branding
Business or (ii) without  limiting  the  generality  of clause (i) above,  be or

co-venturer or  otherwise),  any  individual,  corporation,  firm,  association,
partnership,  joint  venture or other  business  entity,  which is engaged in or
which is planning to engage in any aspect of the Sports Memorabilia and Branding
Business;   provided,  however,  that  the  Executive  may  own,  solely  as  an
investment,  securities of any publicly held corporation  traded on any national
securities  exchange in the United States of America,  if the Executive is not a
controlling  person of or member of a group that controls,  such corporation and
does not, directly or indirectly, own more than 1% of any class of securities of
such corporation.

                  10.2.1    Throughout   the    Employment    Period   and   the
Post-Termination  Period,  the Executive  shall not,  directly or indirectly (i)
induce or attempt to influence any executive of any member of the Image Group to
leave its employ, (ii) aid or agree to aid any competitor,  customer or supplier
of the  Image  Group in any  attempt  to hire any  person  who  shall  have been

preceding such requested aid, or (iii) induce or attempt to influence any person
or  business  entity who was a customer  or  supplier of any member of the Image

whether the Executive  developed  such  Proprietary  Information,  nor shall the
Executive make use of any such Proprietary Information for his own benefit.

            10.3 For the purposes of this  Employment  Agreement  the  following
terms shall have respective meanings ascribed to them below:

                  10.3.1 "Employment Period" means the period of the Executive's
employment  by the  Company,  including  such  period  of  employment,  if  any,
extending beyond the Term.

                  10.3.2  "Post-Termination  Period"  means the two-year  period
commencing with the end of the Employment Period.

            10.4 If the Executive breaches,  or threatens to commit a breach of,
any of the  provisions of Subsection  10.1 (the  "Restrictive  Covenants"),  the
Company  shall have the following  rights and  remedies,  each of which shall be
independent  of the others and  severally  enforceable,  and each of which is in
addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies  available to the
Company at law or in equity:

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

                  10.4.1 The  Executive  shall  account  for and pay over to the
Company all compensation,  profits,  monies, accruals and other benefits derived
or received by the Executive or any person or business  entity  affiliated  with
the Executive as a result of any action or transactions constituting a breach of
any of the Restrictive Covenants.

                  10.4.2  Notwithstanding  the  provisions of Subsection  10.3.1
above, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a violation or
threatened violation of any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall have
no  adequate  remedy at law and shall  therefore  be  entitled  to enforce  each
provision by temporary or permanent  injunctive or mandatory  relief obtained in
any court of competent  jurisdiction  without the necessity of proving  damages,
posting any bond or other  security,  and without  prejudice to any other rights
and remedies which may be available at law or in equity.

                  10.4.3  If any  of  the  Restrictive  Covenants,  or any  part
thereof,  is held to be invalid or unenforceable,  the same shall not affect the
remainder  of the  covenant  or  covenants,  which shall be given full force and
effect, without regard to the invalid or unenforceable portions.

                  10.4.4  If any  of  the  Restrictive  Covenants,  or any  part
thereof,  is held to be unenforceable  because of the duration of such provision
or the area covered thereby, the parties hereto agree that the court making such
determination  shall have the power to reduce the  duration  and/or area of such
provision and, in its reduced from, such provision shall then be enforceable.

                  10.4.5  The  parties   hereto  intend  to  and  hereby  confer
jurisdiction  to  enforce  the  Restrictive  Covenants  upon the  courts  of any
jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Restrictive Covenants. In the
event  that the courts of any one or more of such  jurisdiction  shall hold such
Restrictive  Covenants  wholly  unenforceable  by reason of the  breadth of such
scope  or  otherwise,  it is the  intention  of the  parties  hereto  that  such
determination  not bar or in any way  affect the  Company's  right to the relief
provided above in the courts of any other jurisdictions  within the geographical
scope of such  Restrictive  Covenants,  as to breaches of such covenants in such
other  respective  jurisdictions,  the above  covenants  as they  relate to each
jurisdiction  being,  for this purpose,  severable into diverse and  independent
covenants.

      11.   Inventions.

the premises of the Company,  shall be held by the  Executive  for the exclusive
benefit  of the  Company,  and the  Executive  shall  assign in  writing  to the
Company,  without any payment being required or the part of the Company,  all of
the  right,  title  and  interest  which  he  may  have  acquired  in and to any

and to maintain and enforce  patents or the reissue or extension  thereof on all
Inventions which have been or may be assigned.

      12.   Documentation of Proprietary Information and Inventions.

            All  documents,   records,  models,  prototypes  or  other  tangible

maintain,  in its own  name  and at its own  expense,  life,  health,  accident,
disability or other  insurance upon the Executive in any sum or sums that it may
deem  necessary to protect its  interests,  and the Executive  agrees to aid and
cooperate in all  reasonable  respects with the Company in procuring any and all
such  insurance,  including,  without  limitation,  submitting  to the usual and
customary  medical  examinations,  and by filling out,  executing and delivering
