                  WHEREAS, Wachovia, as sole Lender and Agent, has agreed with
Borrower to modify certain terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement; and

                  WHEREAS, all Current Affiliate Guarantors will obtain direct
and material economic benefits from this Amendment being made, and have agreed
to join with Borrower in executing this Amendment in order to confirm their
continuing credit support to Borrower in respect thereof; and

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals
and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Current Affiliate
Guarantors (sometimes hereinafter called, collectively, the "Loan Parties" and,
individually a "Loan Party"), together with Wachovia, as sole Lender and Agent,
each intending to be legally bound, hereby acknowledge, covenant and agree as
follows:

         1.       Definitions. In addition to terms defined in the Credit
Agreement and used in this Amendment as defined therein, and terms elsewhere
defined in this Amendment, the following terms, as and when used in the Credit
Agreement, henceforth shall have the meanings assigned to such terms
hereinbelow (and such terms, together with all other terms elsewhere defined in
this Amendment, shall be deemed expressly incorporated by reference into
Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement and made an integral part thereof in the
appropriate alphabetical order) effective as of the Amendment Date:

         (i)      the "Borrowing Limitation" definition appearing in Section
10.1 shall be changed in its entirety to read as follows:

                  "Borrowing Limitation" shall mean an amount equal to the
         lesser of (A) the Borrowing Base; or (B) $9,668,000, reducing,
         however, to (i) $9,318,000, on May 20, 2002, (ii) $9,068,000, on July
         1, 2002, and (iii) subsequent to July 1, 2002, to $9,068,000 minus the
         sum of $250,000 per month, effective on the first day of each
         succeeding calendar month; e.g., said amount shall reduce to
         $8,818,000 effective on August 1, 2002; the foregoing to be
         accompanied by mandatory reductions in the Revolving Loans then
         outstanding of not less than $350,000, to be made on May 20, 2002, and
         not less than $250,000 per month, to be made beginning on the first
         day of July, 2002, and continuing on the first day of each succeeding
         calendar month thereafter; and reducing to zero (0) on the Expiry
         Date.

         (ii)     the "Expiry Date" definition appearing in Section 10.1 shall
be changed, in its entirety, to read as follows:

                  "Expiry Date" means November 15, 2002.

                                       2
<PAGE>
         (iii)    there shall be deemed added to Section 10.1 of the Credit
Agreement, in the appropriate alphabetical order, a new definition, to read as
follows:

                  "Fourth Amendment" shall mean the Fourth Amendment, dated as
         of May 20, 2002, amending this Agreement.

         2.       No More Loans. The terms of Section 2 of the Fourth
Amendment, pertaining to the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, are
incorporated by reference herein and made an integral part hereof, as a
restatement thereof for clarity.

         3.       EBITDA. In reference to Section 3 of the Fourth Amendment,
the terms of which are likewise incorporated by reference herein and made an
integral part hereof, the suspension of Borrower's compliance with Section
4.2(F) of the Credit Agreement referenced therein shall be permitted by Lenders
to be continued through the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2002, in
addition to the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2002, so long as Borrower's
EBITDA for each such Fiscal Quarter, adjusted as reflected in the last sentence
of this Section 3, is at least $1.00; provided, however, that, in the event
that EBITDA for a Fiscal Quarter, as so adjusted, is less than $1.00, the
suspension of Borrower's compliance with Section 4.2(f) of the Credit Agreement
referenced therein shall be permitted by Lenders to be continued through the
Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2002, so long as and provided that Baran
makes cash available to Borrower, either in the form of an equity contribution
or one or more subsequent disbursements of the Baran Loan, as that term is
defined in Section 5 below (separate and apart, however, from the initial
disbursement of the Baran Loan), in an amount equal to the amount necessary to
cause EBITDA for such Fiscal Quarter to be at least $1.00 or, solely for the
Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2002, the sum of $3,000,000, if the lesser
amount (but no such limitation shall apply in respect of the Fiscal Quarter
ending September 30, 2002), with such cash to be made available to Borrower as
soon as practicable after, but not later than thirty (30) days after, the end
of such Fiscal Quarter; and provided, further, that Borrower provides
documentary evidence to such effect to the Agent coincident with such cash
being made available to Borrower. For purposes of determining Borrower's
compliance herewith, there shall be added back to EBITDA for the Fiscal
Quarters ended June 30, 2002 and September 30, 2002 any non-cash restructuring
expenses incurred during such period and any accrued, but unpaid fees payable
to Baran (as that term is hereinafter defined) during such period, in each
case, to the extent deducted in computing net income for such period; but, any
cash restructuring expenses incurred during such period and any cash fees paid
to Baran during such period (including, but not limited to, those permitted to
be paid pursuant to Section 4 below) shall not be added back to EBITDA.

         4.       Merger. Lender acknowledges receipt of notice from Borrower
that, effective not later than the Amendment Date, Borrower intends to enter
into a merger agreement (herein, together with all material documents to be
executed in connection therewith, the "Baran Merger Agreement") with Baran
Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("Baran"), pursuant to which as
soon as practicable but in any event on or prior to December 31, 2002, Borrower
intends to merge with and into Baran (the "Baran Merger") resulting in, among
other things, a change of control of Borrower under the terms of Section 6.1(O)
of the Credit Agreement, constituting an Event of Default. Lender has agreed
with Borrower to forbear from taking action in respect of the Default
occasioned by Borrower's entry into the Baran Merger Agreement and to waive the
Event of Default caused by the Merger actually occurring so long as and
provided

                                       3
<PAGE>

that (i) Lender shall have had an opportunity to review and approve the terms
of the Baran Merger Agreement prior to its becoming effective (which approval
shall be evidenced by Lender's execution hereof) and (ii) the Credit Agreement
is terminated and all Obligations are fully paid and satisfied before, or
simultaneously with (but not later than the effective date of) the Baran
Merger being consummated. Lender further consents to and agrees that, during
the period between the Amendment Date and the date on which the Baran Merger is
consummated, Borrower may pay, and Baran may receive, cash consulting fees not
to exceed $40,000 per month, so long as and provided that no Event of Default
or Default then exists or otherwise would be caused by any such payment being
made.

         5.       Subordinated Indebtedness. Lender further acknowledges
receipt of notice from Borrower that, effective on the Amendment Date, Borrower
intends to enter into a note purchase agreement, loan agreement or similar
agreement with Baran (herein, together with all material documents to be
executed in connection therewith, the "Baran Loan Agreement"), pursuant to
which Borrower intends to borrow initially from Baran on the date hereof the
principal sum, in cash, of $5,000,000 (such initial amount, plus any other,
subsequent amounts that Borrower may borrow from Baran pursuant thereto, herein
called, collectively, the "Baran Loan"), the entire amount of which Baran Loan
shall be secured by a Lien (subordinate to Agent's Lien) to be granted on all
or certain assets of Borrower and the Affiliate Guarantors (the "Baran Lien").
Lender hereby consents to the borrowing by Borrower of the Baran Loan and the
granting by Borrower and the Affiliate Guarantors to Baran of the Baran Lien so
long as and provided that (i) Agent shall have had the opportunity to review
and approve all terms of the Baran Loan Agreement prior to its becoming
effective, which approval shall be evidenced by Lender's execution of the
subordination agreement with Baran referenced in clause (iii) below; (ii) the
entire proceeds of the initial disbursement ($5,000,000) of the Baran Loan are
made and disbursed to Borrower, in full, on the Amendment Date, thereafter to
be used by Borrower for its working capital needs and, as may be required under
Section 1 above, in respect of the Borrowing Limitation, to repay Revolving
Loans; and (iii) Baran shall have executed a subordination agreement with Agent
on the Amendment Date, in form and content acceptable to Agent in its sole
discretion, pursuant to which Baran shall subordinate its rights, Liens and
claims against Borrower and the Affiliate Guarantors arising under the Baran
Loan Agreement and the Baran Merger Agreement to those of Agent and Lenders
against Borrower and the Affiliate Guarantors arising under the Credit
Agreement.

         6.       Certain Representations And Warranties Of Loan Parties. Each
Loan Party represents and warrants to Wachovia as the Agent and sole Lender as
further inducements to its entry into this Amendment that: (a) it has the power
and authority to enter into, deliver and to perform this Amendment and any Loan
Documents to be executed and delivered in connection herewith (herein,
"Amendment Documents"), and to incur any obligations provided for in this
Amendment and any Amendment Documents, all of which have been duly authorized
and approved in accordance with its corporate documents; (b) it has obtained
all consents or approvals from any Person necessary to permit it to enter into
and perform under the amendment Documents without its being in violation of any
material agreements with such Persons; (c) this Amendment, together with all
Amendment Documents, shall constitute, when executed, its valid and legally
binding obligations in accordance with their respective terms; (d) except with
respect to events or circumstances occurring subsequent to the date thereof and
known to the Agent and the Lenders, all representations and warranties made by
it in the Credit Agreement remain true

                                       4
<PAGE>
and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, with the same force
and effect as if all such representations and warranties were fully set forth
herein; (e) its obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents remain valid and enforceable obligations, and the execution and
delivery of the Amendment and the other Amendment Documents shall not be
construed as a novation of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents; (f) as of the date hereof, it has no knowledge of any offsets,
counterclaims or defenses existing in its favor in respect of the payment of
any of the Obligations; and (g) as of the date hereof, after giving effect
hereto, it has no knowledge that any Default or Event of Default exists; and
(h) it owns no Domestic Subsidiaries which are not Loan Parties. Each Loan
Party further relieves and releases Wachovia, as Agent and sole Lender, and
Wachovia's directors, officers, agents and other representatives, from any
liability for any action taken (or omitted to be taken) by any thereof in
respect of, pursuant to, or in connection with, this Amendment, the Credit
Agreement or any Loan Document.

         7.       Miscellaneous.

                  (a)      Reference to Agreement and Note. This Amendment
shall become effective upon its execution and all other Amendment Documents (if
any) by all parties hereto and thereto. Upon the effectiveness of this
Amendment, each reference in the Credit Agreement to "this Agreement" and each
reference in the other Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement, shall mean and
be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

                  (b)      Effect on Loan Documents. Except as specifically
amended above, the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall remain
in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

                  (c)      No Waiver. The execution, delivery and effectiveness
of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy
of the Agent or Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a
waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein.

                  (d)      Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay on
demand all reasonable costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the
preparation, reproduction, execution, and delivery of this Amendment and the
other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, including (A) the
costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in conducting and completing its field
audit, as contemplated in the First Amendment, and (B) the reasonable fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect hereto. All such
fees and charges, if not paid promptly when due, may be charged directly as
Revolving Loans.

                  (e)      No Novation. Nothing contained herein is intended,
or shall be construed, to constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement or any
Loan Document.

                  (f)      Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without
giving effect to conflict of law provisions.

                  (g)      Loan Document. This Amendment constitutes a Loan
Document.

efforts to the performance of his duties, responsibilities and services to the

         (c)      Incentive Bonus. Employee shall be eligible to receive an
incentive bonus (the "Incentive Bonus") equal to the lesser of (i) the Maximum
Bonus or (ii) the product obtained by multiplying the EBITDA Ratio by the
Maximum Bonus. The Incentive Bonus shall be paid to Employee on April 1, 2003;
provided, however, that the Incentive Bonus shall not be payable in the event
that (i) the employment of the Employee is terminated by the Company pursuant
to Section 4(c) hereof, (ii) the employment of Employee is terminated by the
Company or the Employee, for any reason prior to December 31, 2002, or (iii)
during the period beginning January 1, 2003 and ending April 1, 2003, Employee

this Section 3(c), the following terms shall have the meanings indicated below:

         "Maximum Bonus" shall mean an amount equal to 10% of the Employee's
Base Salary.

         "EBITDA Ratio" shall mean the quotient obtained by dividing EBITDA by
$4,000,000.

         "EBITDA" shall mean the earnings of all regions before taking into
account interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and corporate cost

         (d)      Employee/Fringe Benefits. Employee shall be eligible to
participate in all employee benefit programs and fringe benefits (including,
but not limited to, medical, dental, vision, life, accidental death and

plans or programs, as may be in effect from time to time) as provided by the
Company to executive employees, subject to any and all terms, conditions, and
eligibility requirements for said programs and benefits, as may from time to
time be prescribed by the Company.

         (e)      Other Business Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Employee
for his actual out-of-pocket, business expenses that are incurred by Employee
and are reasonable and necessary in relation to and in furtherance of
Employee's performance of his duties to the Company. Such reimbursement shall
be subject to compliance with the Company's reimbursement policies and the
provision of substantiating documents of said expenses as may be reasonably
requested by the Company.

         (f)      Vacation. Employee shall be entitled to twenty-one (21) days
Paid Time Off (PTO) per year for vacation and otherwise shall be subject to the
Company's normal vacation policy as it pertains to carryover of vacation from
one calendar year to another. Illness, other personal time away from work, and
holidays shall be allowed in accordance with the Company's normal policies;
provided, that vacation shall be taken at such times as shall not unreasonably
interfere with the Employee's responsibilities hereunder.

         4.       TERMINATION. Employee's employment may be terminated prior to
the expiration of the employment term as follows:

                                       2
<PAGE>
         (a)      Death or Disability. Employee's employment hereunder shall
terminate automatically upon Employee's death. In such event, Employee's estate
shall be entitled to receive any earned and unpaid Base Salary and bonus,
prorated through the date of death. If Employee is prevented from performing
the essential functions of his position, with or without reasonable
accommodations, as a result of physical or mental illness, injury or incapacity
for either (i) a period of ninety (90) consecutive days, or (ii) more than one
hundred eighty (180) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period,
then Employee acknowledges that he would be unable to perform the essential
functions of his job and the Company may terminate the Employee's employment
upon written notice to Employee. The date of disability shall be the date
specified by the Board of Directors of the Company in the written notice
provided to Employee by the Company. In the event of termination due to
disability, Employee shall be entitled to receive any earned and unpaid Base
Salary and bonus, prorated through the date of disability. While receiving
disability income payments under the Company's disability income plan, Employee
shall not be entitled to receive any Base Salary hereunder, but shall continue
to participate in the Company's benefit plans, to the maximum extent permitted
by such plans, until the termination of his employment. Termination of his
employment for disability shall not restrict or limit the Employee's
opportunity to receive continued benefits under the Company's then existing
disability plans(s) in accordance with the terms of such plan(s).

         (b)      Termination Without Cause. This Agreement may be terminated
by Employee or by the Company at any time, for any reason or without cause or
reason, by giving fourteen (14) days written notice to the other party. In the
event the Company terminates Employee's employment without cause, then Employee
shall be entitled to any earned and unpaid Base Salary prorated through the
date of termination and severance pay in the form of continuation of payment of
his annualized base salary for a period of six (6) months from the date of such
termination, which shall be paid in accordance with the Company's regular
payroll practices and subject to any and all applicable taxes and statutory
deductions.

         (c)      Termination For Cause: This Agreement may be immediately
terminated by the Company without notice at any time and without further
obligation, except for Base Salary earned through the date of termination, for
any of the following reasons: (a) fraud, misrepresentation, or dishonesty; (b)
negligence; (c) criminal acts or conduct, criminal conviction of Employee or
the entering by Employee of a plea of "guilty", "no contest", or "nolo
contendere" to any misdemeanor or felony; (d) inattention to or failure to
properly and accurately perform duties and responsibilities assigned to
Employee by the Company, such performance to be judged in the Company's sole
and exclusive discretion; (e) reckless or willful misconduct; or (f) the
engaging by Employee in act or activity prohibited under the terms of this
Agreement.

         5.       CONFIDENTIALITY.

         (a)      Employee agrees that, both during and after termination of
his employment for any reason, Employee will hold in a fiduciary capacity for
the benefit of the Company, and shall not, without the prior written consent of
the Company, directly or indirectly use (for his own benefit or for the benefit
of any other person or entity) or disclose, except as authorized by the Company
in connection with the performance of Employee's duties, any Confidential
Information, as defined hereinafter, that Employee may have or acquire (whether
or not developed or compiled by Employee and whether or not Employee has been
authorized to have access to such

                                       3
<PAGE>
Confidential Information) during the term of, or in connection with, his
employment. The term "Confidential Information" as used in this Agreement shall
mean and include any information, data and know-how relating to the business of
the Company that is disclosed to Employee by the Company or known by him as a
result of his relationship with the Company and not generally within the public
domain (whether constituting a trade secret or not), including without
limitation, the following information:

                           (i)      financial information, such as Company's
         earnings, assets, debts, prices, fee structures, volumes of purchases
         or sales or other financial data, whether relating to Company
         generally, or to particular products, services, geographic areas, or
         time periods;

                           (ii)     supply and service information, such as
         information concerning the goods and services utilized or purchased by
         the Company, the names or addresses of suppliers, terms of supply or
         service contracts, or of particular transactions, or related
         information about potential suppliers, to the extent that such
         information is not generally known to the public, and to the extent
         that the combination of suppliers or use of a particular supplier,
         though generally known or available, yields advantages to Company the
         details of which are not generally known;

                           (iii)    marketing information, such as details
         about ongoing or proposed marketing programs or agreements by or on
         behalf of Company, marketing forecasts or results of marketing efforts
         or information about impending transactions;

                           (iv)     personnel information, such as employees'
         personal or medical histories, compensation or other terms of
         employment, actual or proposed promotions, hirings, resignations,
         disciplinary actions, terminations or reasons therefor, training
         methods, performance, or other employee information;

                           (v)      customer information, such as any
         compilation of past, existing or prospective customers, customer
         proposals or agreements between customers and the Company, status of
         customer accounts or credit, or related information about actual or
         prospective customers; and

                           (vi)     information provided to the Company by a
         third party under an obligation of confidentiality.

                  The term "Confidential Information" does not include
information that has become generally available to the public by the act of one
who has the right to disclose such information without violating any right of
the Company or the customer to which such information pertains.

         (b)      The covenant contained in this Section 5 shall survive the
termination of Employee's employment with the Company for any reason for a
period of two (2) years; provided, however, that with respect to those items of
Confidential Information which constitute a trade secret under applicable law,
the Employee's obligations of confidentiality and non-disclosure as set forth
in this Section 5 shall continue to survive after said two (2) year period to
the greatest extent

                                       4
<PAGE>
permitted by applicable law. These rights of the Company are in addition to
those rights the Company has under the common law or applicable statutes for
the protection of trade secrets.

         6.       NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Employee agrees that he will,
for so long as he is employed hereunder and for a period of one (1) year after
termination of his employment, refrain from, unless previously consented to in
writing by the Company, on his behalf or on behalf of any other person or
entity, soliciting the employment of, employing or encouraging to leave the
employment of the Company, its successors or assigns or any affiliate of the
Company or its successors or assigns, any individual who at such time or within
one hundred eighty (180) days prior to such time is or was an employee of the
Company, its successors or assigns or any affiliate of the Company or its
successors or assigns.

         7.       NON-COMPETITION. Employee expressly covenants and agrees that
during the term of his employment hereunder and for a period of six (6) months
after termination of his employment for any reason, he will not, without the
prior written consent of the Company, obtain or accept a "Competitive Position"
in the "Restricted Territory" with a "Competitor" of the Company (as such terms
are hereafter defined), if the Company or its successors or assigns is also
then still engaged in the Company's Business. For purposes of this Agreement, a
"Competitor" of the Company means any business, individual, partnership, joint
venture, association, firm, corporation or other entity engaged, wholly or
partly, in the business of turnkey cable, fiber optic, and wireline and
wireless telecommunications services including land use planning; site
acquisition; site, systems (including but not limited to RF) and structural
engineering; permitting and zoning; civil, site and tower construction; tower
erection; tower design and manufacturing; equipment services; site management
and maintenance; and build-to-suit financing/ownership of sites; a "Competitive
Position" means the provision of services for the benefit of any Competitor of
the Company whereby Employee will use any Confidential Information (as that
term is defined in Section 5), or whereby Employee has duties for such
Competitor that are the same as or substantially similar to those actually
performed by him pursuant to the terms hereof; and the "Restricted Territory"
means and includes the geographic area comprising the area within 100 miles of
the following office locations of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates
and/or divisions as set forth on Exhibit "A"; provided that on the date at
issue the Company has not permanently ceased to conduct business within such
area. Employee acknowledges and agrees that he has been or will be working
within and throughout the Restricted Territory as defined above or has had or
will have material contact with customers or actively sought prospective
customers of the Company located within such areas.

         8.       MATERIAL CONTACT. For the purposes of Sections 7 and 8 of
this Agreement, "material contact" exists between Employee and each customer or
potential customer: (i) with whom Employee dealt; (ii) whose dealings with the
Company were coordinated or supervised by Employee; or (iii) about whom
Employee obtained Confidential Information in the ordinary course of business
as a result of Employee's performance of his duties and responsibilities
hereunder and in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, such
occurrence was within two (2) years prior to the date of termination of
Employee's employment with the Company.

         9.       TOLLING OF PERIOD OF RESTRAINT. Employee hereby expressly
acknowledges and agrees that in the event the enforceability of any of the
terms of this Agreement shall be challenged in court or pursuant to arbitration
and Employee is not enjoined from breaching any

                                       5
<PAGE>
of the restraints set forth in Sections 5 through 8, then if a court of
competent jurisdiction or arbitration panel finds that the challenged restraint
is enforceable, the time period of the restraint shall be deemed tolled upon
the filing of the lawsuit challenging the enforceability of the restraint until
the dispute is finally resolved and all periods of appeal have expired, but in
no event shall any restriction endure beyond the two (2) year anniversary of
the Employee's termination from employment with the Company.

         10.      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. The Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees
that the restrictions contained in Sections 5 through 8 are fair and reasonable
and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the
Company. Employee acknowledges that in the event the Employee's employment with
the Company terminates for any reason, the Employee will be able to earn a
livelihood without violating the restrictions contained in Sections 5 through 8
and that the Employee's ability to earn a livelihood without violating such
restrictions is a material condition to the Employee's employment and continued
employment with the Company.

         11.      WORK PRODUCT; INVENTIONS.

         (a)      Ownership by the Company. The Company shall own all right,
title and interest in and to all work product developed by Employee in
Employee's provision of services to the Company, including without limitation,
all preliminary designs and drafts, all other works of authorship, all
derivative works and patentable and unpatentable inventions and improvements,
all copies of such works in whatever medium such copies are fixed or embodied,
and all worldwide copyrights, trademarks, patents or other intellectual
property rights in and to such works (collectively the "Work Product"). All
copyrightable materials of the Work Product shall be deemed a "work made for
hire" for the purposes of U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. ss. 101 et seq., as
amended.

         (b)      Assignment and Transfer. In the event any right, title or
interest in and to any of the Work Product (including without limitation all
worldwide copyrights, trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights
therein) does and shall not vest automatically in and with the Company,
Employee agrees to and hereby does irrevocably assign, convey and otherwise
transfer to the Company, and the Company's respective successors and assigns,
all such right, title and interest in and to the Work Product with no
requirement of further consideration from or action by Employee or the Company.

         (c)      Registration Rights. The Company shall have the exclusive
worldwide right to register, in all cases as "claimant" and when applicable as
"author," all copyrights in and to any copyrightable element of the Work
Product, and file any and all applicable renewals and extensions of such
copyright registrations. The Company shall also have the exclusive worldwide
right to file applications for and obtain (i) patents on and for any of the
Work Product in Employee's name and (ii) assignments for the transfer of the
ownership of any such patents to the Company.

         (d)      Additional Documents. Employee agrees to execute and deliver
all documents requested by the Company regarding or related to the ownership
and/or other intellectual property rights and registrations specified herein.
Employee hereby further irrevocably

                                       6
<PAGE>
designates and appoints the Company as Employee's agent and attorney-in-fact to
act for and on Employee's behalf and stead to execute, register and file any
such assignments, applications, registrations, renewals and extensions and to
do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the registration, prosecution
and issuance of patents, copyright or similar protections with the same legal
force and effect as if executed by Employee.

         12.      RIGHTS TO MATERIALS. All records, files, memoranda, computer
programs, reports, price lists, customer lists, drawings, plans, sketches,
projections, business plans, financial information, Company documents and the
like (together with all copies thereof) relating to the business of the
Company, which Employee shall use or prepare or come in contact with in the
course of, or as a result of, his employment shall, as between the parties
hereto, remain the sole property of the Company. Upon the termination of his
employment or upon the prior demand of the Company, he shall immediately return
all such materials and shall not thereafter cause removal thereof from the
premises of the Company.

         13.      ASSISTANCE IN LITIGATION. Employee shall, upon reasonable
notice, furnish such information and assistance to the Company as may
reasonably be required by the Company in connection with any litigation in
which it is, or may become, a party, and which arises out of facts and
circumstances known to Employee. The Company shall promptly reimburse Employee
for his out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the fulfillment of
his obligations under this Section; provided, however, that Employee's
obligations under this Section shall only exist during the term of this
Agreement and during the period, if any, during which he receives compensation
from the Company following the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

         14.      SEVERABILITY. The parties covenant and agree that the
provisions contained herein are reasonable and are not known or believed to be
in violation of any federal, state, or local law, rule or regulation. Except as
noted below, should any provision of this Agreement be declared or determined
by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid for any
reason, the validity of the remaining parts, terms or provisions of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby and the invalid or unenforceable part,
term or provision shall be deemed not to be a part of this Agreement. The
covenants set forth in this Agreement are to be reformed pursuant to Section 15
if held to be unreasonable or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and, as
written and as reformed, shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement.

         15.      REFORMATION. If any of the covenants or promises of this
Agreement are determined by any court of law or equity, with jurisdiction over
this matter, to be unreasonable or unenforceable, in whole or in part, as
written, Employee hereby consents to and affirmatively requests that said court
reform the covenant or promise so as to be reasonable and enforceable and that
said court enforce the covenant or promise as so reformed.

         16.      INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Employee understands, acknowledges and
agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of the
covenants and promises contained in this Agreement, the Company will suffer
irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law and the Company
will therefore be entitled to obtain, without bond, injunctive relief enjoining
said breach or threatened breach. The Employee further acknowledges, however,
that the Company shall have the right to seek a remedy at law as well as or in
lieu of equitable relief in the event of any such breach.

                                       7
<PAGE>
         17.      EMPLOYEE'S OBLIGATIONS UPON TERMINATION. Upon the termination
of Employee's employment hereunder for whatever reason, Employee shall
automatically tender Employee's resignation from any office Employee may hold
with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, and Employee shall not at
any time thereafter represent himself to be connected or to have any connection
with the Company or its related entities.

         18.      ASSIGNMENT. Due to the personal service nature of Employee's
obligations, Employee may not assign this Agreement. Subject to the
restrictions in this Section, this Agreement shall be binding upon and benefit
the parties hereto, and their respective heirs, successors or assigns. The term
"Company" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the successors
and assigns of the original or any subsequent entity constituting the Company
as well as any and all divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates thereof.

         19.      MUTUAL NON-DISPARAGEMENT; PRESS RELEASES.

         (a)      Mutual Non-Disparagement. The Company and Employee agree that
neither party will undertake any disparaging or harassing conduct directed at
the other at any time during the term of this Agreement or following
termination hereof.

         (b)      Press Releases. Other than as required by applicable law, the
parties agree that no public announcement or similar publicity with respect to
this Agreement or the termination of Employee's employment with the Company
will be issued, if at all, unless the parties agree as to the time, manner and
content of such announcement or publicity. Unless consented to by the Company
in advance or required by law, Employee shall keep this Agreement strictly
confidential and may not make any disclosure of this Agreement or any of its
terms or provisions to any person. The parties will consult with each other in
good faith concerning the means by which the Company's employees, customers and
suppliers and others having dealings with Employee will be informed of the
termination of Employee's employment with the Company.

         20.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT; MODIFICATION; GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement
constitutes the entire understanding between the parties regarding the subject
matters addressed herein and supersedes any prior oral or written agreements
between the parties. This Agreement can only be modified by a writing signed by
both parties, and shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State of Georgia without regard to the choice of law provisions
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the protective provisions contained in
Sections 5 through 12 hereof shall be governed and enforced in accordance with
the laws of the state in which enforcement of such provisions is sought.

                                       8
<PAGE>
         21.      NEGOTIATED AGREEMENT. Employee and the Company agree that
this Agreement shall be construed as drafted by both of them, as parties of
equivalent bargaining power, and not for or against either of them as drafter.

         22.      REVIEW AND VOLUNTARINESS OF AGREEMENT. Employee acknowledges
Employee has had an opportunity to read, review, and consider the provisions of
this Agreement, that Employee has in fact read and does understand such
provisions, and that Employee has voluntarily entered into this Agreement.

         23.      NON-WAIVER. The failure of the Company to insist upon or
enforce strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise
any rights or remedies hereunder will not be construed as a waiver by the
Company to assert or rely upon any such provision, right or remedy in that or
any other instance.

         24.      NO CONFLICTING OBLIGATIONS. Employee hereby acknowledges and
represents that Employee's execution of this Agreement and performance of
employment-related obligations and duties for the Company as set forth
hereunder will not cause any breach, default or violation of any other
employment, non-disclosure, confidentiality, non-competition or other agreement
to which Employee may be a party or otherwise bound. Employee hereby agrees
that he will not use in the performance of his duties for the Company (or
otherwise disclose to the Company) any trade secrets or confidential
information of any prior employer or other person or entity if and to the
extent that such use or disclosure may cause a breach or violation of any
obligation or duty owed to such employer, person, or entity under any agreement
or applicable law.

         25.      RIGHT TO ARBITRATION. Any controversy or claim arising out of
or relating to Employee's employment by the Company, or the termination
thereof, or this Agreement, or the breach thereof (including, without
limitation, any claim that any provision of this Agreement or any obligation of
Employee is illegal or otherwise unenforceable or voidable under law, ordinance
or ruling or that Employee's employment by the Company was illegally
terminated) shall be settled by arbitration at the office of the American
Arbitration Association in Atlanta, Georgia, in accordance with the United
States Arbitration Act (9 USC, ss. 1 et seq.) and the rules of the American
Arbitration Association. Company and Employee each consents and submits to the
personal jurisdiction and venue of the trial courts of Cobb County, Georgia,
and also to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Georgia for purposes of enforcing this
provision. All awards of the arbitration shall be binding and non-appealable
except as otherwise provided in the United States Arbitration Act. Judgment
upon the award of the arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration shall take place at a time noticed by the
American Arbitration Association regardless of whether one of the parties fails
or refuses to participate. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award
punitive damages, but will otherwise have the authority to award any remedy or
relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order or grant, including,
without limitation, specific performance of any obligation created under this
Agreement, the issuance of an injunction or other provisional relief, or the
imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the arbitration process.
The parties shall be entitled to engage in reasonable discovery, including a
request for the production of relevant documents. Depositions may be ordered by
the arbitrator upon a showing of need. The foregoing provisions shall not
preclude the Company from bringing an action in any court of competent
jurisdiction for injunctive or other provisional relief as the

                                       9

Company may determine is necessary or appropriate. [To be initialed below by
