           THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is made as of this 1st day of April, 2001,
by and between FUELNATION INC., a Florida corporation (the "COMPANY") whose
current main office address is: 1700 North Dixie Highway, Suite 125, Boca Raton,
Florida 33432, and, Christopher R. Salmonson, whose current mailing address is
10501 North West 66th Street, Parkland, Fl 33076. (the "EXECUTIVE"). In
consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

           1. EMPLOYMENT, POSITION AND DUTIES Upon the terms and conditions set
forth herein, the Company agrees to employ the Executive, and the Executive
hereby accepts employment with the Company in the capacity of the "Position" and
for the term of the "Employment Period" as defined on the annexed Schedule of
Terms of Employment which is fully incorporated into the text hereof by this
reference. During the Employment Period, Executive shall perform the normal
duties, responsibilities and authority of such Position which shall expressly
include those duties and responsibilities set forth on the annexed Schedule of
Terms of Employment ("Duties and Responsibilities") subject to the power of the
Company's board of directors (the "Board") to expand or limit such duties,
responsibilities and authority and to override actions of officers of the
Company. During the Employment Period, Executive shall report to the Board, or
the Chief Executive Officer, at the Board's election, and shall devote his best
efforts and his full business time and attention to the business and affairs of
the Company, excluding the permitted vacation time and time-off for sickness and
other absences as set forth on the annexed Schedule of Terms of Employment.
Executive shall perform his Duties and Responsibilities to the Company hereunder
to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and
efficient manner. Nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit Executive from making
passive investments that are not otherwise prohibited in this Agreement, or as
otherwise provided for in the Schedule of Terms of Employment recited below.

           2.        COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.

           (a) BASE SALARY. During the Employment Period, Executive's initial
base salary shall be the Initial Base Salary set forth in the Schedule of Terms
of Employment per annum or such higher rate as the Board may designate from time
to time (as so adjusted, the "BASE SALARY"), which Base Salary shall be payable
in regular installments in accordance with the Company's general payroll
practices. Failure of Company to promptly pay Executive the regular installments
or bonuses in accordance with the Company's general payroll practices shall be
considered a Termination of Executive without Cause. In addition, during the
Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the
Company's Executive benefit programs for which similar Executives of the Company
are generally eligible, or as otherwise provided for in the Schedule of Terms of
Employment recited below.

           (b) EXPENSES. During the Employment Period, the Company shall
reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred by him in the course of
performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are
consistent with the Company's policies in effect from time to time with respect
to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to the Company's
requirements with respect to approval, reporting and documentation of such
expenses.

           (c) BONUS. The Board shall develop and adopt a bonus plan which the
Board believes to be customary for businesses in the Company's industry for an
Executive in the position of the Executive (the "Bonus Plan"). In addition to
the Base Salary, the Board shall award a bonus to Executive in accordance with
the Bonus Plan following the end

                                      - 1 -

of each fiscal year during the Employment Period based upon Executive's
performance and the Company's operating results during such year, or as
otherwise provided for in the Schedule of Terms of Employment.

           (d) All amounts payable to Executive as compensation hereunder shall
be subject to customary withholding by the Company.

           3. EMPLOYMENT PERIOD. The term of the employment hereunder shall
begin on the "Begin Date" and shall end on the "End Date" as set forth on the
annexed Schedule of Terms of Employment (the "Employment Period") provided that,
the Employment Period shall terminate prior to its expiration upon the
following; (i) the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon the
effective date of the Executive's resignation, death or permanent mental or
physical disability or incapacity (as determined by the Board in its good faith
judgment); (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by the Company at any
time prior to such date for Cause (as defined below) or without Cause for any
reason or no reason whatsoever. No later than 150 days prior to the expiration
of each Employment Period, shall automatically be extended for successive
one-year terms following the expiration of the initial Employment Period, and on
each anniversary thereafter, unless terminated sooner pursuant to the provisions
hereof, or unless the Company gives written notice to the Executive within 150
days prior to the expiration of the Employment Period including any renewal
periods thereafter stating its election not to extend the Employment Period for
any additional term thereafter. Except as otherwise provided herein, any
termination of the Employment Period by the Company shall be effective as
specified in a written notice from the Company to Executive. Executive shall
notify the Company at least 60 days prior to the effective date of Executive's
resignation. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of Executive's
rights to salary, bonuses, fringe benefits and other compensation hereunder
which accrue or become payable after the termination or expiration of the
Employment Period shall cease upon such termination or expiration, other than
those expressly required under COBRA. The Company may offset any amounts
Executive owes it (assuming the Executive has outstanding borrowed cash funds
from Company) against any amounts it owes Executive hereunder.

           For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean (i) the commission
of any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, or the commission of any
act or omission involving dishonesty or fraud with respect to the Company or any
of its affiliates or any of its or their customers or suppliers, (ii) reporting
to work under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs or drug or alcohol abuse
(whether or not at the workplace), (iii) conduct causing the Company or any of
its affiliates substantial public disgrace or disrepute or economic harm, (iv)
substantial and repeated failure to perform duties as reasonably directed by the
Board, (v) gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to the Company or
any of its affiliates or (vi) any material breach of this Agreement or any other
agreement between the Company and Executive (which, in the case of clause (iv),
(v) or (vi) above, is not cured to the Board's reasonable satisfaction within 10
days after written notice thereof from the Board to Executive if the Board
determines in its reasonable discretion that any such matter is subject to
cure).

           Upon expiration of the Employment provided or any subsequent renewal
without further extension or if the Employment Period is terminated by the
Company for Cause, Executive shall only be entitled to receive his Base Salary
through the date of termination or expiration and shall not be entitled to any
other salary, compensation or benefits thereafter, and the Company expressly
reserves and retains all other rights and remedies. If the Employment Period is
terminated by the Company due to death, disability or without Cause, Executive
shall be entitled to continue to receive his Base Salary payable in regular
installments for the period set forth on Schedule of Employment Terms, (the
"Severance Period") if and only if the Executive has executed (except in the
case of Executive's death) and delivered to the Company a general release of all
claims against the Company and its stockholders, directors and Executives in
form and substance satisfactory to the Company and only so long as Executive has
not breached and during the Severance period does not breach the provisions of
paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 hereof, which shall extend beyond the Employment Period
and shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.

           4. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Executive acknowledges that the
information, observations and data (including trade secrets) business practices,
methods, sources, contacts and the identities and telephone numbers of
customers, suppliers, vendors, agents and other contacts obtained by him while
employed by the Company (including those obtained while employed by the Company
prior to the date of this Agreement) concerning the business or affairs
of the Company or any of its affiliates ("Confidential Information") are the
property of the Company or such affiliate. Therefore, Executive agrees that he
shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own purposes any
Confidential Information without the prior consent of the Board or the Chief
Executive Officer, unless and to the extent that the Confidential Information
becomes generally known to and available for use by the public in the same form
or compilation, other than as a result of Executive's acts or omissions, phone
books, logs, Rolodexes, calendars. Executive shall deliver to the Company at the
termination or expiration of the Employment Period, or at any other time the
Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer
tapes, printouts and software and other documents and data in whatever form (and
all copies and reproductions thereof) embodying or relating to the Confidential
Information, Work Product (as defined below) or the business of the Company or
its affiliates which he may then possess, have access to or have under his
control.

           5. INVENTIONS AND PATENTS. Executive acknowledges that all
inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analysis,
drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patent
able) which relate to the Company's or its affiliates' actual or anticipated
business, research and development or existing or future products or services
and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive while employed by the
Company (including those obtained while employed by the Company prior to the
date of this Agreement) ("Work Product") belong to the Company are works for
hire and any proprietary rights which the Executive might have under the law or
otherwise are hereby expressly assigned to the Company. Executive shall promptly
disclose such Work Product to the Board and, at the Company's expense, perform
all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the
Employment Period) to assign, establish and confirm such ownership (including,
without limitation, executing any assignments, consents, powers of attorney and
other instruments).

           6. ENFORCEMENT. If, at the time of enforcement of any provision
hereof by the Company, a court of competent jurisdiction shall hold that the
restrictions stated therein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing,
the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such
circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and
that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions
contained therein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law.
Because Executive's services are unique and because Executive has access to
Confidential Information and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money
damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement.
Therefore, in the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Executive of
this Agreement, the Company, in addition and supplementary to other rights and
remedies existing in its favor, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or
injunctive or other equitable relief from any court in order to enforce or
prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other
security). In addition, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by
Executive, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation
has been duly cured. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained
herein are reasonable and that he has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement
with his legal counsel.

           7. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Executive hereby represents and
warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or
cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Executive is
not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, non-compete agreement or
confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity and (iii) upon the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be

its terms. The Company hereby represents and warrants to Executive that (i) the

by the Company and does not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or
cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
decree to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound and (ii) upon the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Executive, this Agreement shall be
the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company
in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that
he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and

conditions contained herein.

illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provision or any action in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement
shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

           11. COMPLETE AGREEMENT; HEADINGS. This Agreement, those documents

jurisdiction other than the State of Florida.

           16. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. The provisions of this Agreement may be
amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company (as

                             where the Executive is granted common stock options
                             of the Company in an amount equating to 8.0% of the
                             total issued and outstanding shares of all classes
                             of stock and options on a fully diluted basis, with
                             an option exercise price equating to $0.01 per
                             share, where said stock options shall be fully
                             transferrable, have an exercise period of 10 years
                             from granting, shall be non-dilutive (meaning that
                             as any additional stock, options, or warrants are
                             sold by the Company, or issued from its treasury,
                             or the total shares of all classes of stock of the

                             activity), then Executive's total number of options
                             shall increase so that the resultant total options
                             held by Executive shall remain constant at 8.0% of
                             the total issued and outstanding shares of the
                             Company including all stock, options, warrants,

                             of the Company on a fully diluted basis. The full
                             execution of this agreement shall constitute a
                             valid and binding

                             Stock Option Incentive Plan between the Company and
                             the Executive. If the Company terminates the
                             Executive with or without cause at any time, then
                             no options granted to Executive will be returned to
                             the Company, however, the non-dilutive provision
                             will be terminated, and no further options will be
                             granted to Executive. If the Executive resigns at
                             any time, then no options granted to Executive will
                             be returned to the Company, however, the
                             non-dilutive provision will be terminated, and no
                             further options will be granted to Executive. All
                             options recited above shall be granted to Executive
                             at inception of employment, with the exception of
                             those options that are granted to satisfy the
                             non-dilutive provision. As of January 18, 2001,
                             pursuant to information provided in the Company's
                             Private Placement Memorandum, page 29 thereof, the
                             company has Issued or committed to issue all
                             classes of capital stock, options, and warrants in
                             amounts equating to 164,082,466 shares on a fully
                             diluted basis; therefor as of that date Executive's
                             options granting would equate to 13,126,597 options
                             issued on a non-dilutive basis.

Bonus Plan (incentives):     Executive to be paid annually a minimum of 5.0% of
                             the EBIDA pre-tax, net-income of the Company, paid
                             annually on January 31st of each calendar year and
                             if necessary, adjusted on March 31st of each year

                             date on which a Change of Control occurs (the
                             "Change of Control Date") the Company (or, if
                             Executive is employed by a subsidiary, the
                             subsidiary) will continue to employ Executive and
                             Executive will remain in the employ of the Company
                             (or subsidiary), for the period commencing on the
                             Change of Control Date and ending on the earlier to
                             occur of (1) the second anniversary of such date,
                             or (2) the expiration of the Employment Period, to
                             exercise such authority and perform such Executive
                             duties as are commensurate with the authority being
                             exercised and duties be performed by the Executive
                             immediately prior to the Change of Control Date. If
                             the duties and responsibilities are changed by the
                             Company, or the work location is not at the
                             National Office located in Broward or Palm Beach
                             County, as a result of a Change of Control of the
                             Company, then the Executive at his election may
                             consider this event a Termination without cause,
                             and the Executive would be entitled to the amount
                             as stipulated in paragraph (d) below, in lump sum
                             within 5 days of the change of control. However, at
                             each (or any) event of change of control, the
                             Executive has the exclusive right to waive his
                             rights to his voluntary termination, pursuant to
                             the Change of Control, and where the Executive is
                             required to change his place of employment, the
                             Company will reimburse the Executive for his
                             reasonable relocation expenses, including without
                             limitation, moving expenses, temporary living and
                             travel expenses for up to one year while arranging
                             to move his residence to the changed locations,
                             closing costs, real estate commissions, if any,
                             associated with the sale of his existing residence
                             and the purchase of a replacement residence at the
                             changed location, plus an additional amount
                             representing a gross-up of any state or federal
                             taxes payable by Executive as a result of any such
                             reimbursements, and pay Executive a moving bonus
                             equating to 25% of the Executive's last 12 months
                             total gross annual compensation as would be defined
                             on Executive's W-2 form.

                             (c) During the remaining Employment Period after
                             the change of Control Date, the Company (or
                             subsidiary) will (i) continue to pay Executive a
                             salary at not less than the level applicable to
                             Executive on the Change of Control Date, (ii) pay
                             Executive bonuses and income tax incentive bonuses
                             in the amounts not less in amount than those paid
                             during the twelve month period preceding the Change
                             of Control Date, and (iii) continue Executive
                             benefit programs as to Executive at levels in

                             (d) If during the remaining Employment Period after
                             the Change of Control Date (i) Executive's
                             employment is terminated by the Company (or
                             subsidiary), or (ii) there shall have occurred any
                             reduction in Executive's compensation or employment
                             related benefits, or any change in Executive's
                             status, working conditions or management
                             responsibilities, and Executive voluntarily
                             terminates employment within sixty (60) days of any
                             such occurrence, or the last in a series of
                             occurrences, then Executive shall be entitled to
                             receive, subject to the provisions of subparagraphs
                             (e) and (f) below, a lump sum payment equal to 200%
                             of Executive's "base period income" as determined
                             under (e) below. Such amount will be paid to
                             Executive within 5 business days after his
                             termination of employment.

                             (e)The Executive's "base period income" shall be
                             his base salary, however such base salary shall not
                             be less than that as defined in paragraph 3(a)
                             above, and all annual incentive and income tax
                             bonuses, paid or payable to him during or with
                             respect to the twelve month period preceding the
                             date of his termination of employment. If Executive
                             has not been employed for 12 months at the time of
                             his termination of employment, his "base period
                             income" shall be his annualized base salary as
                             defined in paragraph 3(a) above, at the rate then
                             in effect and any annual incentive bonus paid to
                             Executive prior to the date of his termination of
                             employment or payable to Executive with respect to
                             his period of employment.

                             (f)The amounts payable to Executive under any other
                             compensation arrangement maintained by the Company
                             (or a subsidiary) which became payable, after
                             payment of the lump sum provided for in (a), upon
                             or as a result of the exercise by Executive of
                             rights which are contingent on a Change of Control
                             (and would be considered a "parachute payment"
                             under Internal Revenue Code 280G and regulations
                             thereunder), shall be reduced to the extent
                             necessary so that such amounts, when added to such
                             lump sum, do not exceed 299% of the Executive's
                             "base amount" (as computed in accordance with
                             Internal Revenue Code provisions and regulations)
                             for determining whether Executive has received an
                             excess parachute payment. If Executive has not been
                             employed by the Company (or a subsidiary of the
                             Company) during one or more calendar years
                             immediately preceding the Change of Control Date,
                             this paragraph (f) shall not apply.

Other Special Terms:         FUEL AMERICA, LLC, Although said company shall
                             remain operative, Executive shall not spend
                             significant time away from the Company nor be
                             distracted from his duties and responsibilities as
                             outlined herein.
Arbitration Procedure:

         1. NOTICE OF CLAIM. A party asserting a Claim (the "Claimant") shall
deliver written notice to each party against whom the Claim is asserted
(collectively, the "Opposing Party"), with a copy to the persons required to
receive copies of notices under the Agreement (the "Additional Notice Parties"),
specifying the nature of the Claim and requesting a meeting to resolve same. The
Additional Notice Parties shall be given reasonable notice of and invited and
permitted to attend any such meeting. If no resolution is reached within 10
business days after delivery of such notice, the Claimant or the Opposing Party
may, within 45 days after giving such notice, invoke the arbitration procedure
provided herein by delivering to each Opposing Party and the Additional Notice
Parties a Notice of Arbitration, which shall specify the Claim as to which
arbitration is sought, the nature of the Claim, the basis for the Claim, and the
nature and amount of any damages or other compensation or relief sought. Each
party agrees that no punitive damages may be sought or recovered in any
arbitration, judicial proceeding or otherwise. Failure to file a Notice of
Arbitration within 45 days shall constitute a waiver of any right to relief for
the matters asserted in the notice of claim. Any Claim shall be forever barred,
and no relief may be sought therefor, if written notice of such Claim is not
made as provided above within one year of the date such claim accrues.

agree on an arbitrator to hear and decide the Claim. If the Executive and the
Board cannot agree on an arbitrator within ten business days, then they shall
request the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA") to appoint an
arbitrator experienced in the area of dispute who does not have an ongoing
business relationship with any of the parties to the dispute. If the arbitrator
selected informs the parties he cannot hear and resolve the Claim within the
time-frame specified below, the Executive and the Board shall request the
appointment of another arbitrator by the AAA subject to the same requirements.

         3. ARBITRATION PROCEDURE. The following procedures shall govern the
conduct of any arbitration under this section. All procedural matters relating
to the conduct of the arbitration other than those specified below shall be
discussed among counsel for the parties and the arbitrator. Subject to any
agreement of the parties, the arbitrator shall determine all procedural matters
not specified herein.

         (a) Within 30 days of the service after a Notice of Arbitration, each
party shall afford the other, or its counsel, with reasonable access to
documents relating directly to the issues raised in the Notice of Arbitration.
All documents produced and all copies thereof shall be maintained as strictly
confidential, shall be used for no purpose other than the arbitration hereunder,
and shall be returned to the producing party upon completion of the arbitration.
There shall be no other discovery except that, if a reasonable need is shown,
limited depositions may be allowed in the discretion of the arbitrator, it being
the expressed intention and agreement of each party to have the arbitration
proceedings conducted and resolved as expeditiously, economically and fairly as
reasonably practicable, and with the maximum degree of confidentiality.

         (b) All written communications regarding the proceeding sent to the
arbitrator shall be sent simul taneously to each party or its counsel, with a
copy to the Additional Notice Parties. Oral communications between any of the
parties or their counsel and the arbitrator shall be conducted only when all
parties or their counsel are present and participating in the conversation.

         (c) Within 20 days after selection of the arbitrator, the Claimant
shall submit to the arbitrator a copy of the Notice of Arbitration, along with a
supporting memorandum and any exhibits or other documents supporting the Claim.

         (d) Within 20 days after receipt of the Claimant's submission, the
Opposing Party shall submit to the arbitrator a memorandum supporting its
position and any exhibits or other supporting documents. If the Opposing Party
fails to respond to any of the issues raised by the Claimant within 20 days
after receipt of the Claimant's submission, then the arbitrator may find for the
Claimant on any such issue and bar any subsequent consideration of the matter.

         (e) Within 20 days after receipt of the Opposing Party's response, the
Claimant may submit to the arbitrator a reply to the Opposing Party's response,
or notification that no reply is forthcoming.

         (f) Within 10 days after the latest submission as provided above, the
arbitrator shall notify the parties and the Additional Notice Parties of the
date of the hearing on the issues raised by the Claim. Scheduling of the hearing
shall be within the sole discretion of the arbitrator, but in no event more than
30 days after the last submission by the parties, and shall take place within 50
miles of the corporate headquarters of the Company at a place selected by the
arbitrator or such other place as is mutually agreed. Both parties shall be
granted substantially equal time to present evidence at the hearing. The hearing
shall not exceed one business day, except for good cause shown.

         (g) Within 30 days after the conclusion of the hearing, the arbitrator
shall issue a written decision to be delivered to both parties and the
Additional Notice Parties (the "Final Determination"). The Final Determination
shall address each issue disputed by the parties, state the arbitrator's
findings and reasons therefor, and state the nature and amount of any damages,
compensation or other relief awarded.

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>

         (h) The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and
non-appealable and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with applicable
law in such court as has jurisdiction thereof.

         4. COSTS OF ARBITRATION. As part of the Final Determination, the
arbitrator shall determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of the
arbitration, including the arbitrator's fee and both parties' attorneys' fees
and expenses, based upon the extent to which each party prevailed in the
arbitration. In the event that any relief which is awarded is non-monetary, then
such costs and expenses shall be allocated in any manner as may be determined by
the arbitrators.

         5. SATISFACTION OF AWARD. If any party fails to pay the amount of the
award, if any, assessed against it within 30 days after the delivery to such
party of the Final Determination, the unpaid amount shall bear interest from the
date of such delivery at the lesser of (i) the prime lending rate reported by
the Wall Street Journal plus three hundred basis points and (ii) the maximum
rate permitted by applicable usury laws. In addition, such party shall promptly
reimburse the other party for any and all costs or expenses of any nature or
kind whatsoever (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in seeking to
collect such award or to enforce any Final Determination.

         6. CONFIDENTIALITY OF PROCEEDINGS. The parties hereto agree that all of
the arbitration proceedings provided for herein, including any notice of claim,
the Notice of Arbitration, the submissions of the parties, and the Final
Determination issued by the arbitrator, shall be confidential and shall not be
disclosed at any time to any person other than the parties, their
representatives, the arbitrator and the Additional Notice Parties; PROVIDED THAT
this provision shall not prevent the party prevailing in the arbitration from
submitting the Final Determination to a court for the purpose of enforcing the
award, subject to comparable confidentiality protections if the court agrees;
and PROVIDED FURTHER that the foregoing shall not prohibit disclosure to the
minimum extent reasonably necessary to comply with (i) applicable law (or

           THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is made as of this 10th day of February,
2001, by and between FUELNATION INC., a Florida corporation (the "Company") with

accepts employment with the Company in the capacity of the "Position" and for
the term of the "Employment Period" as defined on the annexed Schedule of Terms
of Employment (Exhibit A attached hereto) which is fully incorporated into the
text hereof by this reference. During the Employment Period, Employee shall
perform the normal duties, responsibilities and authority of such Position which
shall expressly include those duties and responsibilities set forth on the
annexed Schedule of Terms of Employment ("Duties and Responsibilities") subject
to the power of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") to expand or

attention to the business and affairs of the Company, excluding the permitted
vacation time and time-off for sickness and other absences as set forth on the
annexed Schedule of Terms of Employment. Employee shall perform his Duties and
Responsibilities to the Company hereunder to the best of his abilities in a
diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner. Nothing in this
paragraph shall prohibit Employee from making passive investments that are not
otherwise prohibited in this Agreement.

           2.        COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.

           (a) BASE SALARY. During the Employment Period, Employee's initial
base salary shall be the Initial Base Salary set forth in the Schedule of Terms
of Employment per annum or such higher rate as the Board may designate from time
to time (as so adjusted, the "Base Salary"), which Base Salary shall be payable
in regular installments in accordance with the Company's general payroll
practices. In addition, during the Employment Period, Employee shall be entitled
to participate in all of the Company's employee benefit programs for which
similar employees of the Company are generally eligible.

           (c) BONUS. The Board shall develop and adopt a bonus plan which the
Board believes to be customary for businesses in the Company's industry for an
employee in the position of the Employee (the "Bonus Plan"). In addition to the
Base Salary, the Board shall award a bonus to Employee in accordance with the
Bonus Plan following the end of each fiscal year during the Employment Period
based upon Employee's performance and the Company's operating results during
such year.

           (d) All amounts payable to Employee as compensation hereunder shall
be subject to customary withholding by the Company.

           3. EMPLOYMENT PERIOD. The term of the employment hereunder shall
begin on the "Begin Date" and shall end on the "End Date" as set forth on the
annexed Schedule of Terms of Employment (the "Employment Period") provided that,
the Employment Period shall terminate prior to its expiration upon the
following; (i) the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon the
effective date of the Employee's resignation, death or permanent mental or
physical disability or incapacity (as determined by the Board in its good faith
judgment); (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by the Company at any
time prior to such date for Cause (as defined below) or without Cause for any
reason or no reason whatsoever. The Employment Period shall automatically be
extended for successive one-year terms following the expiration of the
Employment Period and on each anniversary thereafter, unless terminated sooner
pursuant to the provisions hereof, or unless the Company or Employee gives
written notice to the other party within 30 days prior to the expiration of the
Employment Period including any renewal periods thereafter stating their
election not to extend the Employment Period for any additional term thereafter.
Except as otherwise provided herein, any termination of the Employment Period by
the Company shall be effective as specified in a written notice from the Company
to Employee. Employee shall notify the Company at least 30 days prior to the

compensation hereunder which accrue or become payable after the termination or
expiration of the Employment Period shall cease upon such termination or
expiration, other than those expressly required under COBRA. The Company may
offset any amounts Employee owes it against any amounts it owes Employee
hereunder.

Board's reasonable satisfaction within 10 days after written notice thereof

from the Board to Employee if the Board determines in its reasonable discretion
that any such matter is subject to cure).

           Upon expiration of the Employment Provided or any subsequent renewal
without further extension or if the Employment Period is terminated by the
Company for Cause, Employee shall only be entitled to receive his Base Salary
through the date of termination or expiration and shall not be entitled to any
other salary, compensation or benefits thereafter, and the Company expressly
reserves and retains all other rights and remedies. If the Employment Period is
terminated by the Company due to death, disability or without Cause, Employee
shall be entitled to continue to receive his Base Salary payable in regular
installments for the period set forth on the annexed Schedule of Employment
Terms, (the "Severance Period") if and only if the Employee has executed and
delivered to the Company a general release of all claims against the Company and
its stockholders, directors and employees in form and substance satisfactory to
the Company and only so long as Employee has not breached and during the
Severance period does not breach the provisions of paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 hereof,
which shall extend beyond the Employment Period and shall survive termination or
expiration of this Agreement.

           4. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Employee acknowledges that the
information, observations and data (including trade secrets) business practices,
methods, sources, contacts and the identities and telephone numbers of
customers, suppliers, vendors, agents and other contacts obtained by him while
employed by the Company (including those obtained while employed by the Company
prior to the date of this Agreement) concerning the business or affairs of the
Company or any of its affiliates ("Confidential Information") are the property
of the Company or such affiliate. Therefore, Employee agrees that he shall not
disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own purposes any Confidential
Information without the prior written consent of the Board, unless and to the
extent that the Confidential Information becomes generally known to and
available for use by the public in the same form or compilation, other than as a
result of Employee's acts or omissions, phone books, logs, Rolodexes, calendars.
Employee shall deliver to the Company at the termination or expiration of the
Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda,
notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software and other
documents and data in whatever form (and all copies and reproductions thereof)
embodying or relating to the Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined
below) or the business of the Company or its affiliates which he may then
possess, have access to or have under his control.

           5. INVENTIONS AND PATENTS. Employee acknowledges that all inventions,
innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analysis, drawings,
reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patent-able)
which relate to the Company's or its affiliates' actual or anticipated business,
research and development or existing or future products or services and which
are conceived, developed or made by Employee while employed by the Company
(including those obtained while employed by the Company prior to the date of
this Agreement) ("Work Product") belong to the Company are works for hire and
any proprietary rights which the Employee might have under the law or otherwise
are hereby expressly assigned to the Company. Employee shall promptly disclose
such Work Product to the Board and, at the Company's expense, perform all
actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the
Employment Period) to assign,

establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, executing
any assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

           6. NON-COMPETE, NON-SOLICITATION. In further consideration of the
compensation to be paid to Employee hereunder, Employee acknowledges that in the
course of his employment with the Company on and after the date hereof he shall
become familiar, and during his employment with the Company prior to the date
hereof he has become familiar, with the Company's trade secrets and with other
Confidential Information concerning the Company and its predecessors and its
affiliates and that his services have been and shall be of special, unique and
extraordinary value to the Company. Therefore, Employee agrees that, during the
Employment Period and for Twenty-Four (24) months thereafter (the "Non -compete
Period"), he shall not directly or indirectly own any interest in, manage,
control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any manner
engage in any business competing with the businesses of the Company and its
affiliates as such businesses exist or are in process on the date of the
termination or expiration of the Employment Period, within any geographical area
in the United States in which the Company or its affiliates engage or plan to
engage in such businesses. Employee is entitled to receive his Base Salary for
the initial Non compete Period payable in regular installments.

            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Company may, at its sole option, extend the Non compete Period for up to two (2)
additional 12-month periods by notifying Employee in writing at least 60 days
prior to the end of the Non compete Period or the end of the first 12-month
extension thereof. If the Company so exercises its rights under the preceding
sentence, Employee shall be entitled to continue to receive his Base Salary (or
begin to receive his Base Salary after the termination of the initial Non
compete Period if Employee was not otherwise entitled to receive his Base Salary
during the Initial Non compete Period) payable in regular installments for such
additional 12-month period and (if elected by the Company) such successive
12-month period (subject, in each case, to reductions as provided in this
agreement). Nothing herein shall prohibit Employee from being a passive owner of
not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is
publicly traded, so long as Employee has no active participation in the business
of such corporation.

           During the Non compete Period and during any additional periods
during which Employee is receiving his Base Salary as provided in the preceding
paragraph, Employee shall not directly or indirectly (and shall not permit any
of his affiliates to) (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the
Company or its affiliates to leave the employ of the Company or its affiliates
or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or its
affiliates and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of
the Company or its affiliates at any time during the Employment Period or (iii)
call on, solicit or service any customer of the Company of its affiliates
(including any person or entity that was a customer or other material business
relation of the Company or its affiliates at any time during the 12-month period
ending on the termination of the Employment Period), induce or attempt to induce
any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business
relation of the Company or its affiliates to cease doing business with the
Company or such affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between
any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business
relation and the Company or its affiliates

(including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or
communications regarding the Company or its affiliates).

           7. ENFORCEMENT. If, at the time of enforcement of any provision
hereof by the Company, a court of competent jurisdiction shall hold that the
restrictions stated therein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing,
the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such
circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and
that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions
contained therein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law.
Because Employee's services are unique and because Employee has access to
Confidential Information and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money
damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement.
Therefore, in the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Employee of this
Agreement, the Company, in addition and supplementary to other rights and
remedies existing in its favor, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or
injunctive or other equitable relief from any court in order to enforce or
prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other
security). In addition, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by
Employee, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation
has been duly cured. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained
herein are reasonable and that he has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement
with his legal counsel.

           8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Employee hereby represents and
warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by Employee do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or
cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
decree to which Employee is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Employee is
not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, non-compete agreement or
confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity and (iii) upon the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be
the valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its
terms. The Company hereby represents and warrants to Employee that (i) the

by the Company and does not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or
cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or
decree to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound and (ii) upon the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Employee, this Agreement shall be
the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company
in accordance with its terms. Employee hereby acknowledges and represents that
he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and
obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and
conditions contained herein.

         9. SURVIVAL. 4 through 18 shall survive and continue in full force in
accordance with their terms notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the
Employment Period.

         10. NOTICES. Any notice given or required under this Agreement shall be

                              ARBITRATION PROCEDURE
                                    EXHIBIT B

                  1. NOTICE OF CLAIM. A party asserting a Claim (the "CLAIMANT")
shall deliver written notice to each party against whom the Claim is asserted
(collectively, the "OPPOSING PARTY"), with a copy to the persons required to
receive copies of notices under the Agreement (the "ADDITIONAL NOTICE PARTIES"),
specifying the nature of the Claim and requesting a meeting to resolve same. The
Additional Notice Parties shall be given reasonable notice of and invited and
permitted to attend any such meeting. If no resolution is reached within 10
business days after delivery of such notice, the Claimant or the Opposing Party
may, within 45 days after giving such notice, invoke the arbitration procedure
provided herein by delivering to each Opposing Party and the Additional Notice
Parties a Notice of Arbitration, which shall specify the Claim as to which
arbitration is sought, the nature of the Claim, the basis for the Claim, and the
nature and amount of any damages or other compensation or relief sought. Each
party agrees that no punitive damages may be sought or recovered in any
arbitration, judicial proceeding or otherwise. Failure to file a Notice of
Arbitration within 45 days shall constitute a waiver of any right to relief for
the matters asserted in the notice of claim. Any Claim shall be forever barred,
and no relief may be sought therefor, if written notice of such Claim is not
made as provided above within one year of the date such claim accrues.

                  2. SELECTION OF ARBITRATOR. Within 20 business days after
receipt of the Notice of Arbitration, the Employee and the Board shall meet and
attempt to agree on an arbitrator to hear and decide the Claim. If the Employee
and the Board cannot agree on an arbitrator within ten business days, then they
shall request the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA") to appoint an
arbitrator experienced in the area of dispute who does not have an ongoing
business relationship with any of the parties to the dispute. If the arbitrator
selected informs the parties he cannot hear and resolve the Claim within the
time-frame specified below, the Employee and the Board shall request the
appointment of another arbitrator by the AAA subject to the same requirements.

                  3. ARBITRATION PROCEDURE. The following procedures shall
govern the conduct of any arbitration under this section. All procedural matters
relating to the conduct of the arbitration other than those specified below
shall be discussed among counsel for the parties and the arbitrator. Subject to
any agreement of the parties, the arbitrator shall determine all procedural
matters not specified herein.

                  (a) Within 30 days of the service after a Notice of
Arbitration, each party shall afford the other, or its counsel, with reasonable
access to documents relating directly to the issues raised in the Notice of
Arbitration. All documents produced and all copies thereof shall be maintained
as strictly confidential, shall be used for no purpose other than the
arbitration hereunder, and shall be returned to the producing party upon
completion of the arbitration. There shall be no other discovery except that, if
a reasonable need is shown, limited depositions may be allowed in the discretion
of the arbitrator, it being the expressed intention and agreement of each party
to have the arbitration proceedings conducted and resolved as expeditiously,
economically and fairly as reasonably practicable, and with the maximum degree
of confidentiality.

                  (b) All written communications regarding the proceeding sent
to the arbitrator shall be sent simultaneously to each party or its counsel,
with a copy to the Additional Notice Parties. Oral communications between any of
the parties or their counsel and the arbitrator shall be conducted only when all
parties or their counsel are present and participating in the conversation.

                  (c) Within 20 days after selection of the arbitrator, the
Claimant shall submit to the arbitrator a copy of the Notice of Arbitration,
along with a supporting memorandum and any exhibits or other documents
supporting the Claim.

                  (d) Within 20 days after receipt of the Claimant's submission,
the Opposing Party shall submit to the arbitrator a memorandum supporting its
position and any exhibits or other supporting documents. If the Opposing Party
fails to respond to any of the issues raised by the Claimant within 20 days
after receipt of the Claimant's submission, then the arbitrator may find for the
Claimant on any such issue and bar any subsequent consideration of the matter.

                  (e) Within 20 days after receipt of the Opposing Party's
response, the Claimant may submit to the arbitrator a reply to the Opposing
Party's response, or notification that no reply is forthcoming.

                  (f) Within 10 days after the latest submission as provided
above, the arbitrator shall notify the parties and the Additional Notice Parties
of the date of the hearing on the issues raised by the Claim. Scheduling of the
hearing shall be within the sole discretion of the arbitrator, but in no event
more than 30 days after the last submission by the parties, and shall take place
within 50 miles of the corporate headquarters of the Company at a place selected
by the arbitrator or such other place as is mutually agreed. Both parties shall
be granted substantially equal time to present evidence at the hearing. The
hearing shall not exceed one business day, except for good cause shown.

                  (g) Within 30 days after the conclusion of the hearing, the
arbitrator shall issue a written decision to be delivered to both parties and
the Additional Notice Parties (the "FINAL DETERMINATION"). The Final
Determination shall address each issue disputed by the parties, state the
arbitrator's findings and reasons therefor, and state the nature and amount of
any damages, compensation or other relief awarded.

                  (h) The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and
non-appealable and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with applicable
law in such court as has jurisdiction thereof.

                  4. COSTS OF ARBITRATION. As part of the Final Determination,
the arbitrator shall determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of the
arbitration, including the arbitrator's fee and both parties' attorneys' fees
and expenses, based upon the extent to which each party prevailed in the
arbitration. In the event that any relief which is awarded is non-monetary, then
such costs and expenses shall be allocated in any manner as may be determined by
the arbitrators.

                  5. SATISFACTION OF AWARD. If any party fails to pay the amount
of the award, if any, assessed against it within 30 days after the delivery to
such party of the Final Determination, the unpaid amount shall bear interest
from the date of such delivery at the lesser of (i) the prime lending rate
reported by the Wall Street Journal plus three hundred basis points and (ii) the
maximum rate permitted by applicable usury laws. In addition, such party shall
promptly reimburse the other party for any and all costs or expenses of any
nature or kind whatsoever (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in
seeking to collect such award or to enforce any Final Determination.

                  6. CONFIDENTIALITY OF PROCEEDINGS. The parties hereto agree
that all of the arbitration proceedings provided for herein, including any
notice of claim, the Notice of Arbitration, the submissions of the parties, and
the Final Determination issued by the arbitrator, shall be confidential and
shall not be disclosed at any time to any person other than the parties, their
representatives, the arbitrator and the Additional Notice Parties; PROVIDED THAT
this provision shall not prevent the party prevailing in the arbitration from
submitting the Final Determination to a court for the purpose of enforcing the
award, subject to comparable confidentiality protections if the court agrees;
and PROVIDED FURTHER that the foregoing shall not prohibit disclosure to the
minimum extent reasonably necessary to comply with (i) applicable law (or
requirement having the force of law), court order, judgment or decree,
including, without limitation, disclosures which may be required pursuant to
applicable securities laws, and (ii) the terms of contractual arrangements (such
as financing arrangements) to which the Company or any Additional Notice Party
may be subject so long as such contractual arrangements were not entered into
for the primary purpose of permitting disclosure which would otherwise be
prohibited hereunder.
