          Employee then continues to earn vacation in the amount of five/sixths
          (5/6) day per month, and on the monthly date of hire date. This
          results in the Employee continuing to earn vacation at the rate of ten

          must be taken during the eighteen (18) month period following earned

     officer of the Company on behalf of and reimbursed b the Company,
     including, without limitation, salary, commission, bonus, interest, rent or
     travel and entertainment expenses, which are disallowed in whole or in part
     as a deductible expense for federal income tax purposes on the grounds that
     said payments constitute unreasonable compensation to an employee or
     officer, shall be repaid by the employee or officer to the Company to the
     full extent of the disallowance, if the Board, in its discretion, agrees to
     enforce the repayment of each such amount disallowed.

premises of Company under any circumstances whatsoever without the prior written
consent of Company, and the same shall be promptly returned to Company by

benefit or purposes or for the benefit or purposes of any other person,
partnership, corporation, firm, association or other business organization,

7.   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

     Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to fully
compensate Company for damages resulting from the breach or threatened breach of
Sections 4, 5, and 6 of this Agreement, and accordingly, that Company shall be
entitled to temporary and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining
orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, to enforce such
Sections without the necessity of proving actual damages therewith. This
provision with respect to injunctive relief shall not, however, diminish

Employee harmless against expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees,
judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with any proceeding arising by reason of Employee's
employment with Company if Employee, in incurring the above expenses, acted in
good faith and in a manner Employee believed to be in the best interests of
Company and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe Employee's conduct was unlawful.

     The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more
provisions may be determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole
or in part, the remaining provisions, and any partially unenforceable provisions

equipment and all other physical items related to the business of Company, other
than a merely personal item of a general professional nature, whether of a
public nature or not, and whether prepared by Employee or not, are and shall
remain the exclusive property of Company and shall not be removed from the
premises of Company under any circumstances whatsoever without the prior written
consent of Company, and the same shall be promptly returned to Company by
Employee on the expiration or termination of his or her employment with Company
or at any time prior thereto upon the request of Company.

7.   SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS AND EMPLOYEES

     Both during and within one year after the period of employment, Employee
shall not in any way attempt to interfere with the business of Company and,
shall not call on, solicit, interfere with or attempt to entice away, either
directly or indirectly, any employee of Company with whom he or she became
acquainted during his or her employment with Company, either for his or her own
benefit or purposes or for the benefit or purposes of any other person,
partnership, corporation, firm, association or other business organization,
entity or enterprise.

8.   NONCOMPETITION

     Except as set forth in this Section 8, for a period of 18 months after
termination of this Agreement, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly,
engage or participate in, assist or have any interest in any person,
partnership, corporation, firm, association or other business organization,
entity or enterprise (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, security
holder, creditor, consultant or otherwise) which, directly or indirectly,
manufactures, designs, develops, engineers, markets or otherwise produces or
offers for sale or sells inventions, products, processes, systems or services
the same as, similar to or competitive with any devices, inventions, products,
processes, systems or services manufactured, designed, developed, engineered,
marketed or otherwise produced or offered for sale or sold by Company (or any
successor thereof) in the United States or abroad.

     The parties intend that the covenant contained in this Section 8 shall be
construed as a series of separate covenants. If, in any judicial or arbitration
proceeding, a court shall refuse to enforce any of the separate covenants deemed
included in this paragraph, then this unenforceable covenant shall be deemed
eliminated from these provisions for the purpose of those proceedings to the
extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced.
Moreover, if, in any judicial or arbitration proceedings, the term of
non-competition shall be determined to be unreasonable, the parties agree that
the term shall be shortened to the maximum period deemed reasonable under the
laws of the state of Oregon, and that modified period shall be enforceable as
though originally set forth herein.

9.   INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

     Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to fully
compensate Company for damages resulting from the breach or threatened breach of
Sections 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement, and accordingly, that Company shall
be entitled to temporary and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining
orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, to enforce such
Sections without the necessity of proving actual damages therewith. This
provision with respect to injunctive relief shall not, however, diminish
Company's right to claim and recover damages.

10.  INDEMNIFICATION

     Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold
Employee harmless against expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees,
judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with any proceeding arising by reason of Employee's
employment with Company if Employee, in incurring the above expenses, acted in
good faith and in a manner Employee believed to be in the best interests of
Company and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe Employee's conduct was unlawful.

11.  COPIES OF AGREEMENT

     Employee authorizes Company to send a copy of this Agreement to any and all
future employers which he or she may have, and to any and all persons, firms,
and corporations, with whom he or she may become affiliated in a business or
commercial enterprise, and to inform any and all such employers, persons, firms
or corporations that Company intends to exercise its legal rights should
Employee breach the terms of this Agreement or should another party induce a
breach of Employee's part.

12.  SEVERABLE PROVISIONS

     The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more
provisions may be determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole
or in part, the remaining provisions, and any partially unenforceable provisions
to the extent enforceable, shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

13.  BINDING AGREEMENT

     This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon
Company, its successors and assigns.
