    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants herein contained,
      the
      parties hereto agree as follows:

    

    1. Term
      of Agreement.
      Subject
      to the terms and conditions hereof, the term of employment of the Executive
      under this Employment Agreement shall be for the period commencing on the
      Commencement Date and terminating two (2) years from the Commencement Date,

      (Such term of employment is herein sometimes called the “Employment Term”).
      Company may, at its sole discretion, extend this contract for additional
      one-year periods.

    

    2. Employment.
      As of
      the Commencement Date, the Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive as
      Chief Executive Officer and President
      of
      eLinear, Inc. with such duties as assigned from time to time by the Company’s
      board of directors,
      and the
      Executive hereby accepts such employment and agrees to perform his duties and
      responsibilities hereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions
      hereinafter set forth.

    

    3. Duties
      and Responsibilities.

    

    (a) Duties.
      Executive shall perform such duties as are usually performed by a Chief
      Executive Officer and President, with
      such
      duties as assigned from time to time by the Company
      of a
      business similar in size and scope as the Company and such other reasonable
      additional duties as may be prescribed from time-to-time by the Company’s board
      of directors, which are reasonable and consistent with the Company’s operations,
      taking into account Executive’s expertise and job responsibilities. This
      agreement shall survive any job title or responsibility change. All actions
      of
      Executive shall be subject and subordinate to the review and approval of the
      board of directors of the Company. The board of directors of the Company shall
      be the final and exclusive arbiter of all policy decisions relative to the
      Company’s business (including its subsidiaries).

    

    (b) Devotion
      of Time.
      During
      the term of this agreement, Executive agrees to devote his exclusive and
      full-time service during normal business hours to the business and affairs
      of
      the Company (including its subsidiaries) to the extent necessary to discharge
      the responsibilities assigned to Executive and to use reasonable best efforts
      to
      perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the term of
      this Agreement it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for Executive
      to
      manage personal investments or companies in which personal investments are
      made
      so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance
      of Executive’s responsibilities with the Company and which companies are not in
      direct competition with the Company.

    

    4. Compensation
      and Benefits During the Employment Term.

    

    (a) Salary.

    	(c)  	
            Option.
              The Executive shall receive 200,000 incentive stock options exercisable
              at
              $0.50 per share. Vesting of the options shall follow the vesting schedule
              in accordance with Section (e), provided that no vesting shall occur
              unless Executive is employed by the Company on the respective vesting
              date; provided further that if the Company terminates the Executive
              during
              the Employment Term for any reason other than for Cause, for vesting
              calculation purposes, the options due the Executive at year-end will
              be
              prorated in relation to the date of Executive’s employment termination and
              such prorated amount will vest immediately at the date of Executive’s
              employment termination. For the avoidance of doubt, if Executive is
              terminated for Cause, resigns, or dies; Executive will not be entitled
              to
              any prorated vesting as set forth in the previous sentence. In addition,
              if Executive is terminated for any reason, resigns, or dies this option
              shall expire on the earlier of: (i) four years from the date hereof,
              or
              (ii) ninety days from the date of the termination, resignation, or
              death.
              The option shall be evidenced by an option agreement, shall expire
              in five
              years, and shall be subject to the terms of the Company’s existing Stock
              Option Plans. The term of the option is not intended to extend or
              otherwise modify the Employment Term.

    7.
       Revealing
      of Trade Secrets, etc.
      Executive acknowledges the interest of the Company in maintaining the
      confidentiality of information related to its business and shall not at any
      time
      during the Employment Term or thereafter, directly or indirectly, reveal or
      cause to be revealed to any person or entity the supplier lists, customer lists
      or other confidential business information of the Company; provided, however,
      that the parties acknowledge that it is not the intention of this paragraph
      to
      include within its subject matter (a) information not proprietary to the
      Company, (b) information which is then in the public domain through no fault
      of
      Executive, or (c) information required to be disclosed by law.

    

    8. Non-Competition
      Agreement.
      As part
      of the consideration for the compensation and benefits to be paid and extended
      to Executive hereunder, and as an additional incentive for the Company to enter
      into this employment relationship, Executive agrees to the non-competition
      provisions of this section.

    

    (a) Executive
      hereby agrees that for a period commencing on the date hereof and ending one
      (1)
      year following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for
      whatever reason, he will not, directly or indirectly, as employee, agent,
      consultant, stockholder, director, co-partner or in any other individual or
      representative capacity, own, operate, manage, control, engage in, invest in
      or
      participate in any manner in, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services
      for, or otherwise assist any person or entity (other than the Company) that
      engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or
      enterprise that engages or proposes to engage in the business of technology
      consulting and IT equipment sales within Harris County (the
“Territory”).

    

    (b) Restrictions
      on Future Employment.
      Executive understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit his ability
      to
      engage in certain businesses in the Territory during the period provided for
      above, but acknowledges that Executive will receive sufficiently high
      remuneration and other benefits (e.g.,
      high
      remuneration during the term of the Agreement and access to certain confidential
      and proprietary information and trade secrets) under this Agreement to justify
      such restriction. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be
      sufficient remedy for any breach of this section by Executive, and Company
      or
      any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the
      provisions of this section by terminating any payments then owing to Executive
      under this Agreement and/or to specific performance and injunctive relief as
      remedies for such breach or any threatened breach, without any requirement
      for
      the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedies. Such
      remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this
      section, but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity
      to Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, including, without
      limitation, the recovery of damages from Executive and his agents involved
      in
      such breach.

    

    (c) Acknowledgement
      by Parties.
      It is
      expressly understood that the restrictions contained in this section are related
      to and result from the agreements of the Company and Executive in this section
      and it is agreed that the Company and Executive consider the restrictions
      contained in this section to be reasonable and necessary to protect the
      confidential and proprietary information and trade secrets of the Company and
      its subsidiaries and affiliates.

    

    9. Survival.
      In the
      event that this Agreement shall be terminated, then notwithstanding such
      termination, the obligations of Executive pursuant to Section 7 and 8 of this
      Agreement shall survive such termination. 

    

    10. Contents

      Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect
      to the subject matter hereof. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
