          obtained by, or furnished to, the Employee while the Employee shall
          have been employed by or associated with the Company is confidential
          information and the Company's exclusive property; provided, however,
          that this prohibition will not apply to any item of confidential
          information which is otherwise publicly available or becomes so other
          than as a result of the Employee's violation of this Agreement. Upon
          termination of this Agreement, Employee shall promptly return to the
          Company all books, manuals, reports, client and customer lists, keys
          and other materials referred to above and any other materials that

promptly disclose in writing to the Company all such ideas,

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5

         concepts, inventions, improvements and developments, and will
         cooperate fully in confirming, protecting and obtaining legal
         protection of the Company's ownership rights.

              (c)   The Employee expressly agrees and understands that the
         remedy at law for any breach by him of this Section 9 will be
         inadequate and that the damages flowing from such breach are not
         readily susceptible of being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly,
         it is acknowledged that upon adequate proof of the Employee's
         violation of any legally enforceable provision of this Section 9,
         the Company shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief and
         may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further
         breach. Nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to limit the
         Company's remedies at law or in equity for any breach by the Employee
         of any of the provisions of this Section 9 that may be pursued or
         availed of by the Company.

              (d)   In the event that the Employee shall violate any legally
         enforceable provision of this Section 9 as to which there is a
         specific time period during which he is prohibited from taking
         certain actions or from engaging in certain activities, as set forth
         in such provision, then such violation shall toll the running of that
         time period from the date of its commencement until the date of its
         cessation.

              (e)   The Employee has carefully considered the nature and
         extent of the restrictions upon him and the rights and remedies
         conferred upon the Company under this Section 9, and hereby
         acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable in time and
         territory, are designed to eliminate competition that would otherwise
         be unfair to the Company, do not stifle the inherent skill and
         experience of the Employee, would not operate as a bar to the
         Employee's sole means of support, are fully required to protect the
         legitimate interests of the Company and do not confer a benefit upon
         the Company disproportionate to the detriment to the Employee.

         10. WITHHOLDING TAXES. All payments to the Employee or his beneficiary
shall be subject to withholding on account of federal, state and local taxes as
required by law. If any payment hereunder is insufficient to provide the amount
of such taxes required to be withheld, the Company may withhold such taxes from
any other payment due the Employee or his beneficiary. In the event all cash
payments due the Employee are insufficient to provide the required amount of
such withholding taxes, the Employee or his beneficiary, within five days after
written notice from the Company, shall pay to the Company the amount of such
withholding taxes in excess of all cash payments due the Employee or his
beneficiary.

         11. ASSIGNABILITY; BINDING NATURE. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, heirs
(in the case of the Employee) and assigns. No rights or obligations of the

                                      -5-

event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in the preceding sentence,
it will use its best efforts to cause such assignee or transferee expressly to
assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No
obligations of the Employee wider this Agreement may be assigned or transferred
by the Employee.

restrictions upon him and the rights and remedies conferred upon the Company

experience of the Employee, would not operate as a bar to the Employee's sole
means of support, are fully required to protect the legitimate interests of the
Company and do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the
detriment to the Employee.

any other payment due the Employee or his beneficiary. In the event all cash
payments due the Employee are insufficient to provide the required amount of
such withholding taxes, the Employee or his beneficiary, within five days after

withholding taxes in excess of all cash payments due the Employee or his
beneficiary.

the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee
assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in
this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company further
agrees that, in the event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in the
preceding sentence, it will use its best efforts to cause such assignee
or transferee expressly to assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the
Company hereunder. No obligations of the Employee under this Agreement may be
assigned or transferred by the Employee.

         13. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein,
this Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the
Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior
agreements, whether written or oral, between the Parties concerning the subject
matter hereof.

similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same or any prior or
subsequent time. Any waiver

Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in

thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent
