prevent or restrict him in any way from performing his duties for Employer
anywhere in the world;

      (C) His/her past, present, and anticipated future activities have not and
will not infringe on the proprietary rights of others;

      (D) He/she is not obligated under any contract (including licenses,
covenants, guaranties, or moral or legal commitments of any nature) or other
agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree, or order of any tribunal which
would be in conflict with his obligation to use his best efforts to promote the
interests of Employer or which would be in conflict with Employer's business as
conducted or as proposed to be conducted;

      (E) Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Agreement, nor the

<PAGE>    Exhibit - 10.23

      (F) Employer and its continued success depend upon the use and protection
of a large body of confidential and other proprietary information. Under this
Agreement Employee will hold a position of trust and confidence by virtue of
which Employee will necessarily possess and have access to highly valuable,
confidential, and proprietary information of Employer not known to the public in
general. It would be improper for Employee to make use of this information for
the benefit of himself/herself and others. Employer has a protectable interest
in all such information, and all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, and
other documents (including copies thereof), on any medium of recording
containing such information are and will remain the property of Employer.

      (G) Employee's services will be of special, unique, and extraordinary
value to Employer.

      6. Special Covenants. A. Nondisclosure and Nonuse. Employee agrees that,
except as may be required to be disclosed to a third party in the discharge of
Employee's duties under this or other Agreements with Employer, he/she shall
regard and preserve as confidential all information pertaining to the business
of Employer, its customers, and others that has been obtained by him/her during
the course of his/her employment. During any period of employment by or other
affiliation with Employer, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, use for
Employee's own benefit or for the benefit of any third party or disclose to any
others any of such information without written authority from the President of
Employer. Employee shall not directly or indirectly knowingly acquire or attempt
to acquire an interest in any business entity relating to any line of business
in which Employer engages or intends to engage and, to Employee's knowledge,
with which Employer has within the previous twelve months entertained
discussions or which has within the previous twelve months requested and
received information relating to the acquisition of such business by Employer.
The obligations set forth in the preceding sentences of this Subsection shall
not apply to any information which is or comes into the public domain through no
wrongful act or omission of Employee. This Subsection shall not be construed as
restricting Employee from disclosing any information (whether proprietary and
confidential to Employer or not) to employees of Employer or others engaged by
Employer who reasonably require access to such information in order to discharge
their duties to Employer. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this
Subsection, if Employee obtains any information subject to statutory,
regulatory, or judicial restraints on disclosure, including but not limited to
federal and state securities laws and regulations, or any information which he
is directed to disclose by law, regulation, government administrative action, or
judicial order, he shall observe said restraints and directives.

      (B) Noncompetition. So long as Employee is employed by or otherwise
affiliated with Employer and for an additional 36 months thereafter, Employee
shall not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate in, consult
with, render services for, or in any way engage in the business of Employer,
except as provided in Subsection 2(C) above.

<PAGE>    Exhibit - 10.23

      (C) Nonsolicitation. So long as Employee is employed by or otherwise
affiliated with Employer and for an additional 36 months thereafter, Employee
shall not directly or indirectly (1) knowingly induce or attempt to induce any
employee of Employer to leave the employ of Employer; or (2) knowingly engage
any person who, within the previous six months, was an employee of or a
contractor providing services to Employer.

      (D) Noninterference. So long as Employee is employed by or otherwise
affiliated with Employer and for an additional 36 months thereafter, Employee
shall not directly or indirectly knowingly induce or attempt to induce any owner
of a site location, customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation of
Employer to cease doing business with Employer or in any way interfere with the
relationship between any such owner, customer, supplier, licensee, or other
business relation and Employer.

      (E) Acknowledgments. Employee acknowledges that the provisions in this
Section are in consideration of employment by Employer and the other obligations
of Employer under this Agreement. Employee expressly agrees and acknowledges
that the restrictions in this Section do not preclude Employee from earning a
livelihood, nor do they reasonably impose limitations on Employee's ability to
earn a living. Employee agrees and acknowledges that the potential harm to
Employer of the non-enforcement of the provisions of this section outweighs any
harm to Employee of their enforcement by injunction, specific performance, or
otherwise. Employee acknowledges that Employee has carefully read this Agreement
and has given careful thought to the restraints imposed upon him/her by this
Agreement, and is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and
proper protection of Employer. Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that
each and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to
subject matter, time period, and geographical scope, and may be enforced by
equitable remedies including Temporary Restraining Orders, Preliminary
Injunctions, and Permanent Injunctions.

      (F) Employee's obligations under this Section shall also run to any
subsidiary, joint venture, or other business entity in which Employer has a
direct or indirect ownership interest with voting or other control rights, as
well as to Employer, and the term "Employer" as used in this Section shall be
deemed to include any such subsidiary, joint venture, or other business entity,
as well as Employer.

Employee.

      (A) Definition. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Employer Intellectual
Property" includes inventions, discoveries, improvements, creations,

Employee agrees that no rights in Employer Intellectual Property are or shall be
retained by Employee.

enforceable by Employee and Employer. Employee shall not assign any rights or
delegate any duties under this Agreement without the written consent of the
President of Employer. Employer may assign its rights and delegate its
obligations hereunder to any subsidiary, joint venture, or other business entity
in which Employer has a direct or indirect ownership interest with voting or

Employer may be released from its obligations under this Agreement upon such an
assignment or delegation.

Agreement shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
particular circumstance by any tribunal of competent jurisdiction, each such
provision shall be valid in other circumstances and for the particular
circumstance the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be read and
construed as though the said invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had
never been a part hereof. However, if any one or more of the provisions in this
Agreement shall be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical
scope, activity, or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and
