non-exclusive,  revocable  appointment  to solicit and secure  applications  and
renewals of the Company's  group health,  life and  disability  contracts.  This

Company,  or delivered to him/her in person.  The Broker/Agent shall immediately
notify the Company of overpayments  and of payments to which the Broker/Agent is
not  entitled  and shall  refund the  erroneous  payment to the  Company or make
arrangements for the erroneous payment to be charged against future  commissions

diminish or restrict the Company's right to recover  overpayments or commissions
paid in error.

        by Altius.

                         ARTICLE II. OBLIGATIONS OF ALTIUS

2.1      Commissions.   Altius  will  pay   Producer   first  year  and  renewal
         commissions on an Altius enrollment resulting from applications for the
         Altius  Plan(s)  that are  obtained by Producer and accepted by Altius.
         Such commissions shall be based on the commission  schedule(s) attached
         to this  Agreement  as Exhibit 3 and  incorporated  herein and shall be
         paid  on  membership  premiums  actually  received  by  Altius  for the
         enrollments produced by Producer. Payment shall be as set forth in this
         paragraph.  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of this  Agreement,
         Altius may modify or replace its commission  schedule(s) on thirty (30)
         days prior written notice to Producer, and such modified or replacement
         schedule(s)  shall apply to all  enrollments  effective  following  the
         effective date of such modification or replacement.

2.2      Renewal  Commissions.  Renewal commissions shall be payable to Producer
         by Altius,  as provided  under Section 2.3 hereof (i) as long as Altius
         retains the enrollment  produced by Producer (such  retention  being at
         Altius'  option);  and (ii) as long as  Altius  has a valid  broker  of
         record letter  naming  Producer as the  representative  of the employer
         group,  (iii) and so long as this Agreement is still in effect.  In the
         event the employer group notifies Altius that it intends to discontinue
         or change  its  broker of  record,  Altius  will  cease its  payment of
         commission,  with or without notice to the Producer, as of the last day
         of the month in which Altius is notified by the employer group.

2.3      Payment of Commissions.  Altius will pay Producer net  compensation for
         all  Producer's  business due within thirty (30) days following the end
         of each calendar month based on membership  premiums actually received,
         earned and  reconciled by Altius during the calendar month for Producer
         generated  business.  If there is a return of  membership  premiums  on
         Producer generated business, for any reason, Altius will charge back to
         Producer the amount of  commission  previously  paid to Producer on the
         amount of returned membership premiums.

2.4      Loss of  Commissions.  No  further  commissions  shall  be  payable  to
         Producer  should this  Agreement be  terminated  for cause  pursuant to
         Section 3.3. Additionally, no further commissions shall be payable if:

        a.  Producer fails to immediately  remit to Altius any funds received on
            behalf of Altius; or

         b. Producer  shall be indebted to Altius for more than sixty (60) days;
            or

         c. Producer  induces or attempts to induce any Altius member to give up
            Altius coverage or replace a Altius benefit  agreement with coverage
            by any other  company  unless  such  change is  clearly  in the best
            interest of the Altius member; or

         d. Producer  commits any act of fraud or  dishonesty  or  breaches  any
            contractual duty of this Agreement; or

         e. Producer fails to notify Altius of any change of Producer's  address
            within 90 days.

2.5      Offset Against  Commissions.  Producer agrees that any  indebtedness of
         Producer to Altius  shall be a first lien against any  commissions  due
         Producer  and may be offset  and be  deducted  at Altius'  option  from
         commissions due to Producer.

2.6      Survival of Provisions. The provisions of this Article II shall survive
         the termination of this Agreement.

                                                                      (Initials)

                        ARTICLE III. TERM AND TERMINATION

3.1      Term.  This Agreement  shall become  effective on the effective date of
         the Utah  Insurance  Department  Producer  appointment  with Altius set
         forth  above,  which shall be the first day of the  following  month in
         which  it  has  been  signed  by  the  Producer  and  by an  authorized
         representative of Altius, and shall continue in effect until terminated
         by either party as provided below.

3.2      Termination Without Cause. This Agreement may be terminated at any time
         by either party giving the other thirty (30) days prior written notice.
         The effective date of  termination  shall be the first day of the month
         following the thirty (30) day notice. Such termination shall not impair
         Producer's  right to receive  commissions  except as  provided  in this
         Agreement for the effective dates of this Agreement.

3.3      Termination For Cause.  Notwithstanding  the provisions of Section 3.2,
         Altius may terminate this Agreement  immediately at any time for cause,
         by giving written notice to Producer.  For purposes of this  Agreement,
         such cause shall include,  but not be limited to, the events  described
         in Section 2.4 hereof.  The right to terminate this Agreement for cause
         shall not be exclusive, but shall be cumulative with all other remedies
         available at law or in equity.  In  addition,  this  Agreement  will be
         terminated  automatically and without any required notice by Altius, in
         its sole discretion, if any of the following occurs: (i) if Producer is
         a   corporation,    the   dissolution   of   the   corporation;    (ii)
         disqualification  of Producer to do business under  applicable  law; or
         (iii) revocation or termination of Producer's license.

3.4      Obligation of Parties after Termination.  Termination shall not relieve
         either party of any obligation  under this Agreement  which arose prior
         to  termination.  Upon  termination  each party shall  promptly pay any
         money owed to the  other,  and the  Producer  will  promptly  return to
         Altius any all contract forms,  property,  records,  or other materials
         furnished by Altius.

                         ARTICLE IV. GENERAL PROVISIONS

4.1     Independent  Contractor  Relationship.   Producer  agrees  that  in  the
        performance  of  the  work,   duties  and  obligations  of  the  parties
        hereunder,  each party shall be deemed to be acting and performing as an
        independent  contractor and nothing in this Agreement shall he construed
        or deemed a relationship  of employer and employee,  partnership,  joint
        venture,  or principal and agent,  nor shall this Agreement be construed
        in any proceeding or for any purpose  whatsoever so as to make the other
        party liable to any third person for the debts, faults or actions of the
        other.

                                                                      (Initials)

4.2     Arbitration.  Should any dispute  arise  between  the  parties  over any
        provision of this Agreement or over any  performance of this  Agreement,
        the dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration.  This arbitration
        shall be conducted  according  to the rules of the American  Arbitration
        Association, but need not necessarily be conducted by that organization.
        Each  party  shall  initially   equally   contribute  to  the  costs  of
        arbitration.  During  the  arbitration  each  party  shall  bear its own
        attorneys' fees. Upon award of the arbitrator,  both the decision of the
        arbitrator and the award shall be final and the  prevailing  party shall
        be entitled to recover from the other party its share of the arbitration
        costs expended,  and all costs,  including attorneys' fees. In the event
        the  arbitrator  fails to render  an award  within  ninety  (90) days of
        submission  of the  matter for  decision,  or such  longer  times as the
        parties may  stipulate,  then either party may elect to have all further
        arbitration proceedings terminated and the matter submitted for judicial
        resolution.   All  reasonable   costs  and  fees  incurred   during  the
        arbitration shall then be awarded by the court to the prevailing party.

4.3     Non-Exclusive  Arrangement.  This is not an exclusive Agreement.  Altius
        may use other  persons and entities for the same or similar  services as
        are being provided by Producer.

4.4     Assignability.  The rights and  obligations  set forth in this Agreement
        may be assigned by Altius to an  affiliate  or other entity of Altius or
        Altius' parent corporation. The rights and obligations set forth in this
        Agreement  may not be  assigned by  Producer  without the prior  written
        consent of Altius. Any attempted  assignment not in compliance with this
        Section is void and cause for immediate termination by Altius.

4.5     Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed to be invalid
        or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by arbitration,
        it shall be deemed  severable  from the  remainder of the  Agreement and
        shall not cause the invalidity or  unenforceability  of the remainder of
        the Agreement.

4.6     Enforcement.  If any action at taw or in equity is  necessary to enforce
        or interpret the terms of the Agreement,  the prevailing  party shall be
        entitled to payment by the other party of  reasonable  attorney's  fees,
        costs and necessary  disbursement  and expenses in addition to any other
        relief to which such party may be entitled.

4.9    Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement by the
       other party shall not  constitute a continuing  waiver or a waiver of any
       subsequent breach of the same or a different Section of this Agreement.

4.10    Amendment.  Altius may amend this  Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior
        written  notice,  but any such amendment shall not affect the Producer's
