                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") made by and between Presstek, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Employer"), and Edward J. Marino (the "Employee").

         WHEREAS, Employee is currently a member of the Board of Directors of
the Employer and both the Employer and the Employee now wish for Employee to be
employed as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Employer; and

         WHEREAS, the Employee wishes to commence his employment with the
Employer and the Employer wishes to commence its employment of Employee on a
date to be mutually determined by the parties, but in any event on or prior to
June 2, 2002.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the promises
hereafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby
AGREE as follows:

1.       EMPLOYMENT. Commencing as of a date to be mutually determined by the
         Employee and the Employer, but in no event later than June 2, 2002 (the
         "Start Date"), the Employee shall be employed as Chief Executive
         Officer and President of the Employer and shall continue to serve as a
         member of the Board of Directors of the Employer through the Term of
         this Agreement. The Employee shall render executive, policy, operations
         and other management services to the Employer of the type customarily
         performed by persons situated in similar executive and management
         capacities. The Employee shall perform such other related duties as the
         Board of Directors of the employer may from time to time reasonably
         direct.

2.       COMPENSATION. The Employer agrees to pay the Employee during the Term
         of this Agreement an annual base salary equal to $350,000 U.S. Dollars
         with the salary to be reviewed annually during the Term of this
         Agreement by the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of the
         Employer. In the annual salary review, the Board of Directors may
         compensate the Employee for increases in the market value of the
         Employee's duties and responsibilities hereunder and may provide for
         performance or merit increases. The base salary of the Employee shall
         not be decreased at any time during the Term of this Agreement from the
         amount then in effect, unless the Employee otherwise agrees in writing.
         The salary shall be payable to the Employee not less frequently than
         monthly.

         In addition, Employee will upon the commencement of his employment with
         the Employer, relocate to the New Hampshire area. The Employer will
         reimburse Employee for his reasonable moving expenses relating to his
         relocation to the New Hampshire area and will reimburse Employee for
         his reasonable living expenses for the first 90 days of his relocation
         to the New Hampshire area, in each case, upon presentation by the
         Employee of an itemized account of such expenditures.

<PAGE>
         Participation in discretionary bonuses, retirement and other employee
         benefit plans and fringe benefits shall not reduce the salary payable
         to the Employee under this Section 2.

3.       DISCRETIONARY BONUSES. During the Term of this Agreement, the Employee
         shall be entitled to receive an annual cash bonus of up to 30% of the
         Employee's then annual base salary, based on the Employee's
         contribution to the accomplishment of key annual corporate objectives
         mutually determined by the Employee and the Employer. During the Term
         of this Agreement, the Employee also shall be entitled to participate
         in an equitable manner with all other eligible executive employees of
         the Employer in any other incentive compensation and bonus programs
         authorized and declared by the Board of Directors or Compensation
         Committee of Employer for executive employees. No other compensation
         provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed a substitute for the
         Employee's right to participate in such incentive compensation or bonus
         programs when and as declared.

4.       STOCK OPTION GRANT; PARTICIPATION IN STOCK OPTION, RETIREMENT AND
         EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS; FRINGE BENEFITS. The Employee shall be granted,
         on the date hereof (the "Grant Date"), options to purchase 500,000
         shares of common stock of the Employer at a price per share equal to
         $5.23, such options to vest as follows: 25% upon the Grant Date, an
         additional 25% on the first anniversary of the Grant Date, an
         additional 25% on the second anniversary of the Grant Date and the
         remaining 25% on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (subject to
         the earlier vesting of the options, in their entirety, upon the
         execution by the Employer of a definitive agreement relating to a
         Trigger Event. For this purpose "Trigger Event" shall mean (a) the sale
         by the Employer of all or substantially all of its assets, or (b) the
         acquisition of a majority of the shares of common stock of the Employer
         by a third party pursuant to which holders of the Employer's common
         stock prior to such transaction receive equity securities or cash from
         the third party in exchange for their common stock of the Employer),
         and to be in the form of, and have such other terms and conditions as
         are set forth in, the option agreement annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

         In addition to the foregoing stock options, and subject to the
         eligibility requirements that may be applicable, the Employee shall be
         entitled to participate in any plan or arrangement of the Employer
         relating to stock options, stock purchases, pension, thrift, or profit
         sharing benefits, or other benefits under qualified or non-qualified
         deferred compensation plans, group life insurance, medical coverage,
         education or any other employee benefits that the Employer may adopt or
         make available for the benefit of Employee or of executive employees
         generally.

         The Employee shall also be entitled during the Term of this Agreement
         to any fringe benefits which may be or become available, during the
         Term of this Agreement, to executive employees of the Employer, and to
         the payment or reimbursement of reasonable expenses for attending
         annual and periodic meetings of trade associations, and any other
         benefits which are commensurate with the duties and responsibilities to
         be performed by the Employee under this Agreement.

<PAGE>
5.       EMPLOYMENT TERM. "Term," as used in this Agreement, shall refer to the
         Term of this Agreement as defined in this paragraph. The Term of the
         employment under this Agreement shall commence on the Start Date and
         shall initially end two years thereafter, on the day preceding the
         second anniversary of the Start Date, unless sooner terminated in
         accordance with the provisions hereof. The Term of employment under
         this Agreement shall, on each anniversary of the Start Date thereafter
         (commencing with the second anniversary of the Start Date), be
         automatically extended for an additional year unless Employer or
         Employee gives written notice to the other, at least 90 days prior to
         such anniversary date, that he or it does not concur in such extension.
         If neither party gives notice of non-concurrence in such extension, the
         Term will be automatically extended for an additional year.

6.       STANDARDS. The Employee shall perform his duties and responsibilities
         under this Agreement in accordance with such reasonable standards as
         are established from time to time by the Board of Directors of
         Employer. The reasonableness of such standards shall be measured
         against standards for executive performance generally prevailing in
         similar high technology companies.

7.       VOLUNTARY ABSENCES; VACATIONS. The Employee shall be entitled to an
         annual paid vacation during the Term of this Agreement of four (4)
         weeks per year or such longer period as the Board of Directors may
         approve or such longer periods to which the Employee may be entitled as
         an employee of the Employer. The timing of paid vacations shall be
         scheduled in a reasonable manner by the Employee.

8.       TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

         (a)  (i)    The Board of Directors of the Employer may terminate the
                     Employee's employment at any time, but any termination by
                     the Board of Directors other than termination for Cause (as
                     defined in Section 8(a)(iii) below) shall not prejudice the
                     Employee's right to receive compensation and other benefits
                     under this Agreement. In the event of a termination for
                     Cause, the Employee shall have no right to receive
                     compensation or other benefits, including payment of legal
                     fees and expenses incurred, for any period after
                     termination for Cause except as otherwise required by law.
                     Regardless of the reason for the termination of Employee's
                     employment, other than termination for Cause, the Employer
                     shall continue to be subject to any independent obligation
                     to Employee under any employee benefit plan in which the
                     Employee is then a participant, and to any obligation for
                     severance pay, if any, in accordance with the then existing
                     severance policies of the Employer.

              (ii)   In the event that the Employee's employment ceases by
                     reason of (a) the Employer's termination of the Employee's
                     employment during the Term other than for Cause, or (b) the
                     Employer's non-concurrence in the automatic extension of
                     the Term, the Employer shall be obligated concurrently with
                     the termination of such employment, in lieu and replacement
                     of the Employee's entitlement to any compensation and other
                     benefits under this Agreement

<PAGE>
                     pursuant to Section 8(a)(i), to make a lump sum cash
                     payment to the Employee as liquidated damages in an amount
                     equal to the Employee's then current annual salary
                     multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be
                     12 and the numerator of which shall be the number of months
                     remaining in the Term, plus an additional amount equal to
                     the Employee's then current annual salary for one (1) full
                     year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employer's
                     termination of the Employee's employment without Cause
                     occurs in connection with, or within two (2) years after, a
                     "Change in Control" as defined in Section 9(b) hereof, the
                     amount payable to the Employee shall be determined under
                     Section 9(a) as limited by Section 9(c) hereof. Such
                     payment to the Employee shall be made on or before the
                     Employee's last day of employment with the Employer. The
                     liquidated damages shall not be reduced by any compensation
                     which the Employee may receive for other employment with
                     another employer after termination of his employment with
                     the Employer. In addition, the Employee shall be entitled
                     to have all existing retirement or employee benefits of the
                     type referred to in Section 4 hereof continue for the
                     remainder of the Term when the Agreement is terminated,
                     except as otherwise required by law or provided in the
                     related retirement or other employee benefit plans or
                     agreements.

              (iii)  References in this Agreement to "termination for Cause"
                     shall mean termination on account of acts or omissions of
                     Employee which constitute Cause as defined below. Any
                     determination with respect to a termination for Cause shall
                     require the approval of the Board of Directors of the
                     Employer. "Cause" shall mean any of the following:

                     (A)    conviction of a felony,

                     (B)    theft from the Employer,

                     (C)    breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit,

                     (D)    sustained and continuous conduct by Employee which
                            adversely affects the reputation of the Employer,

                     (E)    continued failure of the Employee to substantially
                            and satisfactorily perform his duties or obligations
                            under this Agreement following twenty (20) days'
                            notice by the Employer to the Employee and a failure
                            by the Employee to correct the deficiency cited in
                            such notice (other than any such failure resulting
                            from Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental
                            illness).

         (b)      The Employee shall have no right to terminate his employment
                  under this Agreement prior to the end of the Term of this
                  Agreement, unless such termination is either for Good Reason
                  (as described in Section 9(a) hereof) in connection with, or
                  within two (2) years after, a Change in Control or approved by
                  the Board of

<PAGE>
                  Directors of the Employer. In the event that the Employee
                  violates this provision, or in the event that Employee is
                  terminated for Cause, Employee shall be entitled to no further
                  payments pursuant to this Agreement, and the Employer shall be
                  entitled, in addition to its other legal remedies, to request
                  a court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin the employment of
                  the Employee with any significant competitor of the Employer,
                  for a period of two (2) years or the remaining Term of this
                  Agreement plus one (1) year, whichever is less. Upon written
                  consent, the Board may permit the Employee to work for a
                  significant competitor during such period. During such period,
                  even if the Employee is permitted to be employed by a
                  significant competitor, he shall not without the approval of
                  the Board of Directors of the Employer induce any officer of
                  the Employer to accept employment from such competitor, nor
                  shall he use proprietary and confidential information of the
                  Employer for the benefit of such competitor.

9.       CHANGE IN CONTROL.

         (a)  (i)    If during the Term of this Agreement there is a Change in
                     Control of the Employer, and Employee's employment with the
                     Employer is terminated involuntarily (other than for
                     Cause), or voluntarily for Good Reason (as defined below),
                     in connection with or within two (2) years after such
                     Change in Control, then the Employee shall be entitled to
                     receive as a severance payment, for services previously
                     rendered to the Employer, a lump sum cash payment as
                     provided in Section 9(a)(ii) below.

              (ii)   Subject to Section 9(c) hereof, the lump sum cash payment
                     (the "Payment") shall be in an amount equal to three (3)
                     times the Employee's average annual compensation which was
                     payable by the Employer and was includible by the Employee
                     in his gross income for federal income tax purposes with
                     respect to the five (5) most recent taxable years of the
                     Employee ending prior to such Change in Control of the
                     Employer (or such portion of such period during which the
                     Employee was a full-time employee of the Employer), less
                     one dollar.

              (iii)  As used herein, the term "Good Reason" means, unless
                     previously consented to in writing by the Employee, the
                     occurrence of any one of the following:

                     (A)    the assignment to the Employee of duties and
                            responsibilities that are not at least substantially
                            equivalent to the Employee's duties and
                            responsibilities with the Employer immediately prior
                            to such Change in Control;

                     (B)    the failure to continue the Employee in a position
                            and title that is at least substantially equivalent
                            to the position held by the Employee with the
                            Employer immediately prior to such Change in
                            Control, except in connection with the termination
                            of the Employee's employment for Cause or as a
                            result of death or permanent disability;

<PAGE>
                     (C)    a reduction in or failure to pay currently total
                            annual cash compensation in an amount equal to or
                            greater than the sum of (i) the Employee's salary at
                            the highest annual rate in effect during the 12-
                            month period immediately prior to such Change in
                            Control, and (ii) the bonus paid to similarly
                            situated employees pursuant to the acquiring
                            Employer's executive bonus plan for the fiscal year
                            ending immediately prior to such Change in Control;

                     (D)    the Employee's benefits under any employee benefit
                            or welfare plan of the acquiring Employer are less,
                            or are reduced to less, other than reductions
                            mandated by a change in law, than the benefits of
                            similarly situated employees under any employee
                            benefit or welfare plan of the acquiring Employer in
                            effect immediately prior to such Change in Control;

                     (E)    the Employee is reassigned to a place of business
                            which is more than 50 miles from Hudson, New
                            Hampshire; or

                     (F)    any breach by the Employer of this Agreement.

              (iv)   Payment under this Section 9(a) shall be in lieu of any
                     amount owed to the Employee as liquidated damages for
                     termination without Cause under Sections 8(a)(i) and (ii)
                     hereof. However, payment under this Section 9(a) shall not
                     be reduced by any compensation which the Employee may
                     receive from other employment with another employer after
                     termination of his employment with the Employer.

         (b)      A "change in control of the Employer," for purposes of this
                  Agreement, shall be deemed to have taken place if: (i) a third
                  person, including a "group" as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of
                  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, becomes the beneficial
                  owner of shares of the Employer having 20 percent or more of
                  the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of
                  directors of the Employer; or (ii) as the result of, or in
                  connection with, any cash tender or exchange offer, merger, or
                  other business combination, sale of assets or contested
                  election, or any combination of the foregoing transactions,
                  the persons who were directors of the Employer before such
                  transaction shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board
                  of Directors of the Employer or any successor institution.

         (c)      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or of
                  any other agreement, contract, or understanding heretofore or
                  hereafter entered into by the Employee with the Employer,
                  except an agreement, contract, or understanding hereafter
                  entered into that expressly modifies or excludes application
                  of this Section 9(c) ("Other Agreements"), and notwithstanding
                  any formal or informal plan or other arrangement heretofore or
                  hereafter adopted by the Employer for the direct or indirect
                  provision of compensation to the Employee (including groups or
                  classes of

<PAGE>
                  participants or beneficiaries of which the Employee is a
                  member), whether or not such compensation is deferred, is in
                  cash, or is in the form of a benefit to or for the Employee (a
                  "Benefit Plan"), the Employee shall not have any right to
                  receive any payment or other benefit under this Agreement, any
                  Other Agreement, or any Benefit Plan if such payment or
                  benefit, taking into account all other payments or benefits to
                  or for the Employee under this Agreement, all Other
                  Agreements, and all Benefit Plans, would cause any payment to
                  the Employee under this Agreement to be considered a
                  "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)
                  of the Internal Revenue Code as then in effect (a "Parachute
                  Payment"), as determined by a nationally recognized accounting
                  firm selected by the Board. In the event that the receipt of
                  any such payment or benefit under this Agreement, any Other
                  Agreement, or any Benefit Plan would cause the Employee to be
                  considered to have received a Parachute Payment under this
                  Agreement, then the Employee shall have the right, in the
                  Employee's sole discretion, to designate those payments or
                  benefits under this Agreement, any Other Agreements, and/or
                  any Benefit Plans, which should be reduced or eliminated so as
                  to avoid having the payment to the Employee under this
                  Agreement be deemed to be a Parachute Payment.

10.      EXPENSES; AUTOMOBILE ALLOWANCE.

         (a)      The Employee is authorized to incur, during the Term of this
                  Agreement, reasonable expenses for promoting the business of
                  the Employer, including without limitation expenses for
                  entertainment, travel and similar items. The Employer will
                  promptly reimburse the Employee for all such expenses, upon
                  the presentation by the Employee, from time to time, of an
                  itemized account of such expenses.

         (b)      During the Term of this Agreement, the Employer shall buy or
                  lease a full-size luxury vehicle of Employer's choosing for
                  the Employer's exclusive use and/or, at the Employee's option,
                  provide Employee with a monthly automobile allowance in an
                  amount sufficient to pay Employee's costs for the purchase or
                  lease of such a vehicle, and the Employer shall reimburse the
                  Employee (upon submission by him of reasonably itemized
                  accounts thereof) for all maintenance, repairs, insurance,
                  gasoline, tolls, parking and other reasonable upkeep and
                  related expenses on such vehicle.

11.      LEGAL EXPENSES. The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless the
         Employee from and against any and all costs and liabilities, including
         without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or in
         connection with becoming, being or having been an officer or director
         of the Employer, except in relation to matters as to which the Employee
         shall be finally adjudged not to have acted in good faith in the
         reasonable belief that his action or failure to act was in the best
         interest of the Employer.

12.      SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; ASSUMPTION BY SUCCESSORS. All rights hereunder
         shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their personal or
         legal representatives, heirs, successors or assigns. This Agreement may
         not be assigned or pledged by the Employee. The Employer will require
         any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, assignment,

<PAGE>

         merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the
         business and/or assets of the Employer in any consensual transaction
         expressly to assume this Agreement and to agree to perform hereunder in
         the same manner and to the same extent that the Employer would be
         required to perform if no such succession had taken place. References
         herein to the Employer will be understood to refer to the successor or
         successors of the Employer, respectively.

13.      OTHER CONTRACTS. The Employee shall not, during the Term of this
         Agreement, have any other paid employment (other than with a subsidiary
         or affiliate of the Employer) except with the prior approval of the
         Board of Directors of the Employer.

14.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
         between the parties and supersedes all prior employment agreements and
         understandings, whether written or oral.

15.      AMENDMENTS OR ADDITIONS. No amendments or additions to this Agreement
         shall be binding unless in writing and signed by the parties.

16.      SECTION HEADINGS. The section headings used in this Agreement are
         included solely for convenience and shall not affect, or be used in
         connection with, the interpretation of this Agreement.

17.      SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
         severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall
         not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions
         hereof.

18.      GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
         United States where applicable and otherwise by the laws of the State
         of New Hampshire, except the choice of law rules thereof.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement this 3rd
day of April, 2002.

                      NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                                 PRESSTEK, INC.
                                 --------------

     AGREEMENT made as of this 3rd day of April 2002 between Presstek, Inc. (the
"Company"), a Delaware corporation, having a principal place of business in
Hudson, New Hampshire, and Edward J. Marino (the "Grantee") residing at 69
Lochmere Lane, Nashua, New Hampshire 03063.

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Grantee a Non-Qualified Stock
Option to purchase 500,000 shares of its common stock of a par value of $.01 a
share (the "Shares"), under and for the purposes of the 1998 Stock Incentive
Plan of the Company (the "Plan") pursuant to the terms thereof;

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Grantee understand and agree that unless
otherwise defined herein any terms used herein have the same meanings as in the
Plan.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set
forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

     1.   GRANT OF OPTION. The Company hereby grants to the Grantee the right
and option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of Five Hundred Thousand
(500,000) shares of its Common Stock, $.01 par value, on the terms and
conditions and subject to all the limitations set forth herein and in the Plan,
which is incorporated herein by reference. The Grantee acknowledges receipt of a
copy of the Plan.

     2.   PURCHASE PRICE. The purchase price of the Shares covered by the Option
shall be $5.23 per share.

                                       1
<PAGE>

     3.   EXERCISE OF OPTION. The Option granted hereby shall be exercisable as
to 125,000 shares of Common Stock on April 3, 2002, and exercisable as to an
additional 125,000 shares of Common Stock on each of April 3, 2003, April 3,
2004 and April 3, 2005.

     4.   TERM OF OPTION. The Option shall terminate ten (10) years from the
date of this Agreement, but shall be subject to earlier termination as provided
herein or in the Plan.

     If the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Company or by any Subsidiary
(as defined in the Plan) of the Company for any reason other than death,
disability, termination for cause or voluntary termination without the consent
of the Company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, the Option may be exercised
within thirty (30) days after the date the Grantee ceases to be an employee, or
within ten (10) years from the granting of the Option, whichever is earlier, but
may not be exercised thereafter. In such event, the Option shall be exercisable
only to the extent that the right to purchase Shares under the Plan has accrued
and is in effect at the date of such cessation of employment.

     In the event the Grantee's employment is terminated by the Company or
Subsidiary, as the case may be, for "cause" (as defined in the Plan), or
voluntarily by the Grantee without the consent of the Company or Subsidiary, the
Grantee's right to exercise any unexercised portion of this Option shall cease
forthwith, and this Option shall thereupon terminate.

     In the event of retirement of the Grantee, the Option shall be exercisable
within twelve (12) months after the date of retirement or, if earlier, within
the originally prescribed term of the Option. In the event of retirement, the
Option shall be exercisable to the extent that the right to purchase the Shares
hereunder has accrued on the date of retirement.

                                       2
<PAGE>

     In the event of disability of the Grantee [as determined by the Board of
Directors of the Company or the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan Committee (the
"Committee") of the Company, as the case may be, and as to the fact and date of
which the Grantee is notified by the Board or the Committee, as the case may be,
in writing], the Option shall be exercisable within twelve (12) months after the
date of such disability or, if earlier, the term originally prescribed by this
Agreement. In such event, the Option shall be exercisable to the extent that the
right to purchase the Shares hereunder has accrued on the date the Grantee
becomes disabled and is in effect as of such determination date.

     In the event of the death of the Grantee while an employee of the Company
or Subsidiary, as the case may be, or within thirty days after the termination
of employment (other than termination for cause or without consent of the
Company or Subsidiary), the Option shall be exercisable to the extent
exercisable but not exercised as of the date of death and in such event, the
Option must be exercised, if at all, within one (1) year after the date of death
of the Grantee or, if earlier, within the originally prescribed term of the
Option.

     5.   NON-ASSIGNABILITY. The Option shall not be transferable by the Grantee
otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be
exercisable, during the Grantee's lifetime, only by the Grantee. The Option
shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation
of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or
similar process. Any attempted transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or
other disposition of the Option or of any rights granted

                                       3
<PAGE>

hereunder contrary to the provisions of this Section 5, or the levy of any
attachment or similar process upon the Option or such right, shall be null and
void.

     6.   EXERCISE OF OPTION AND ISSUE OF SHARES. The Option may be exercised in
whole or in part (to the extent that it is exercisable in accordance with its
terms) by giving written notice to the Company, together with the tender of the
Option price. Such written notice shall be signed by the person exercising the
Option, shall state the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is
being exercised, shall contain any warranty required by Section 7 below and
shall otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
Plan. The Company shall pay all original issue taxes with respect to the issue
of the Shares pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses necessarily
incurred by the Company in connection herewith. Except as specifically set forth
herein, the holder acknowledges that any income or other taxes due from him with
respect to this Option or the Shares issuable pursuant to this Option shall be
the responsibility of the holder. The holder of this Option shall have rights as
a shareholder only with respect to any Shares covered by the Option after due
exercise of the Option and tender of the full exercise price for the Shares
being purchased pursuant to such exercise.

     7.   PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT. Unless the offering and sale of the Shares to
be issued upon the particular exercise of the Option shall have been effectively
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as now in force or hereafter
amended, or any successor legislation (the "Act"), the Company shall be under no
obligation to issue the Shares covered by such exercise unless and until the
following conditions have been fulfilled:

                                       4
<PAGE>

          (a)  The person(s) who exercise the Option shall warrant to the
Company, at the time of such exercise, that such person(s) are acquiring such
Shares for his or her own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for
sale in connection with, the distribution of any such Shares, in which event the
person(s) acquiring such Shares shall be bound by the provisions of the
following legend which shall be endorsed upon the certificate(s) evidencing
their option Shares issued pursuant to such exercise:

          "The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered
          under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Such shares
          may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless they have
          first been registered under the Act or, unless, in the opinion of
          counsel satisfactory to the Company's counsel, such registration is
          not required."

          (b)  The Company shall have received an opinion of its counsel that
the Shares may be issued upon such particular exercise in compliance with the
Act without registration thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company may delay issuance of the Shares until completion of any
action or obtaining of any consent, which the Company deems necessary under any
applicable law (including without limitation state securities or "blue sky"
laws).

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") made by and between Presstek, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Employer"), and Moosa E. Moosa (the "Employee").

         WHEREAS, on March 11, 2002, the Employee commenced employment as Chief
Financial Officer and Vice President of Finance of the Employer; and

         WHEREAS, the Employee and the Employer wish to enter into an agreement
setting forth the terms and conditions of Employee's employment, as described
herein that is to supercede all prior understandings and agreements concerning
Employee's employment with Employer (whether written or oral).

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the promises
hereafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby
AGREE as follows:

1.       EMPLOYMENT. Commencing as of March 11, 2002 (the "Start Date"), the
         Employee shall be employed as Chief Financial Officer and Vice
         President of Finance of the Employer through the Term of this
         Agreement. The Employee shall render executive, financial policy and
         other management services to the Employer of the type customarily
         performed by persons situated in similar executive and management
         capacities. The Employee shall perform such other related duties as the
         Chief Executive Officer and President and/or Board of Directors of the
         Employer may from time to time reasonably direct.

2.       COMPENSATION. The Employer agrees to pay the Employee during the Term
         of this Agreement a monthly base salary of $16,666.66 (an annualized
         rate equal to $200,000.00 U.S. Dollars) with the salary to be reviewed
         annually during the Term of this Agreement by the Board of Directors or
         Compensation Committee of the Employer. In the annual salary review,
         the Board of Directors may compensate the Employee for increases in the
         market value of the Employee's duties and responsibilities hereunder
         and may provide for performance or merit increases. The base salary of
         the Employee shall not be decreased at any time during the Term of this
         Agreement from the amount then in effect, unless the Employee otherwise
         agrees in writing. The salary shall be payable to the Employee not less
         frequently than monthly. All payments and benefits in this Agreement
         shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local
         withholding, payroll and other taxes.

         Participation in discretionary bonuses, retirement and other employee
         benefit plans and fringe benefits shall not reduce the salary payable
         to the Employee under this Section 2.

3.       DISCRETIONARY BONUSES. During the Term of this Agreement, the Employee
         shall be entitled to receive an annual cash bonus of up to 40% of the
         Employee's then annual base salary, based on the Employee's
         contribution to the accomplishment of key annual corporate objectives
         mutually determined by the Employee and the Employer. During the Term
         of this Agreement, the Employee also shall be entitled to participate
         in an equitable manner with all other eligible executive employees of
         the Employer in any other incentive compensation and bonus programs
         authorized and declared by the Board

<PAGE>
         of Directors or Compensation Committee of Employer for executive
         employees. No other compensation provided for in this Agreement shall
         be deemed a substitute for the Employee's right to participate in such
         incentive compensation or bonus programs when and as declared.

4.       STOCK OPTION GRANT; PARTICIPATION IN STOCK OPTION, RETIREMENT AND
         EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS; FRINGE BENEFITS. The Employee was granted a
         non-qualified stock option to purchase 90,000 shares of common stock of
         the Employer on March 11, 2002 (the "March Grant"). On April 3, 2002,
         the Employee was granted an additional non-qualified stock option to
         purchase 25,000 shares of common stock of the Employer on (the "April
         Grant"). The March Grant and the April Grant will each be governed by
         the terms and conditions of the written stock option agreement that the
         Employee signed for the respective Grant, as well as the Employer's
         1998 Stock Incentive Plan.

         In addition to the foregoing stock options, and subject to the
         eligibility requirements that may be applicable, the Employee shall be
         entitled to participate during the Term in any plan or arrangement of
         the Employer relating to stock options, stock purchases, pension,
         thrift, or profit sharing benefits, or other benefits under qualified
         or non-qualified deferred compensation plans, group life insurance,
         medical coverage, education or any other employee benefits that the
         Employer may adopt or make available for the benefit of Employee or of
         executive employees generally.

         The Employee shall also be entitled during the Term of this Agreement
         to any fringe benefits which may be or become available, during the
         Term of this Agreement, to executive employees of the Employer, and to
         the payment or reimbursement of reasonable expenses for attending
         annual and periodic meetings of trade associations, and any other
         benefits which are offered by the Employer during the Term and are
         commensurate with the duties and responsibilities to be performed by
         the Employee under this Agreement.

5.       EMPLOYMENT TERM. "Term," as used in this Agreement, shall refer to the
         Term of this Agreement as defined in this paragraph. The Term of the
         employment under this Agreement shall commence on the Start Date and
         shall initially end two years thereafter, on the day preceding the
         second anniversary of the Start Date, unless sooner terminated in
         accordance with the provisions hereof. The Term of employment under
         this Agreement shall, on each anniversary of the Start Date thereafter
         (commencing with the second anniversary of the Start Date), be
         automatically extended for an additional year unless Employer or
         Employee gives written notice to the other, at least 60 days prior to
         such anniversary date, that he or it does not concur in such extension.
         If neither party gives notice of non-concurrence in such extension, the
         Term will be automatically extended for an additional year, unless
         sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof.

6.       STANDARDS. The Employee shall perform his duties and responsibilities
         under this Agreement in accordance with such reasonable standards as
         are established from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer and
         President and/or Board of Directors of

<PAGE>
         Employer. The reasonableness of such standards shall be measured
         against standards for executive performance generally prevailing in
         similar high technology companies.

7.       VOLUNTARY ABSENCES; VACATIONS. The Employee shall be entitled to an
         annual paid vacation during the Term of this Agreement of four (4)
         weeks per year or such longer period as the Board of Directors may
         approve or such longer periods to which the Employee may be entitled as
         an employee of the Employer. The timing of paid vacations shall be
         scheduled in a reasonable manner by the Employee.

8.       TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

         (a)  (i)    The Employer may terminate the Employee's employment at any
                     time, but any termination by the Employer other than
                     termination for Cause (as defined in Section 8(a)(iii)
                     below) shall not prejudice the Employee's right to receive
                     compensation and other benefits under this Agreement,
                     except as stated otherwise in this Agreement. In the event
                     of a termination for Cause, the Employee shall have no
                     right to receive compensation or other benefits, including
                     payment of legal fees and expenses incurred, for any period
                     after termination for Cause except as otherwise required by
                     law. Regardless of the reason for the termination of
                     Employee's employment, other than termination for Cause,
                     the Employer shall continue to be subject to any
                     independent obligation to Employee under any employee
                     benefit plan in which the Employee is then a participant to
                     the extent required by any such plan or by applicable law.

              (ii)   In the event that the Employee's employment ceases by
                     reason of (a) the Employer's termination of the Employee's
                     employment during the Term other than for Cause, or (b) the
                     Employer's non-concurrence in the automatic extension of
                     the Term, the Employer shall be obligated in lieu and
                     replacement of the Employee's entitlement to any
                     compensation and other benefits under this Agreement
                     pursuant to Section 8(a)(i), to make severance payments to
                     the Employee as liquidated damages in an aggregate amount
                     that is equal to the Employee's then current annual salary
                     multiplied by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be
                     12 and the numerator of which shall be the number of months
                     remaining in the Term, plus an additional amount equal to
                     the Employee's then current annual salary for one (1) full
                     year (collectively, the "Severance Payments"). The
                     Severance Payments shall be paid after termination of
                     employment in equal installments according to the
                     Employer's normal payroll practices then in effect, over a
                     period of time post termination as is equal to the sum of:
                     (A) the number of months remaining in the Term when
                     Employee's employment ceased and (B) twelve (12) months
                     (such period of time over which the Severance Payments are
                     to be made, the "Severance Period"). Notwithstanding the
                     foregoing, if the Employer's termination of the Employee's
                     employment without Cause occurs within two (2) years after,
                     a "Change in Control" as defined in Section 9(b) hereof,
                     the amount payable to the Employee shall be determined
                     under Section 9(a) as limited by Section 9(c) hereof. Such
                     payment to the Employee shall be made on or before the
                     Employee's last day of employment with the Employer. The
                     liquidated damages shall not be reduced by any compensation
                     which the Employee may receive for other employment with
                     another employer after termination of his employment with
                     the Employer. In addition, the Employee shall be entitled
                     to have all existing

<PAGE>
                     retirement or employee benefits of the type referred to in
                     Section 4 hereof continue for the remainder of the Term
                     when the Agreement is terminated, except as otherwise
                     required by law or provided in the related retirement or
                     other employee benefit plans or agreements.

              (iii)  References in this Agreement to "termination for Cause"
                     shall mean termination on account of acts or omissions of
                     Employee which constitute Cause as defined below. Any
                     determination with respect to a termination for Cause shall
                     require the approval of the Board of Directors of the
                     Employer. "Cause" shall mean any of the following:

                     (A)    conviction of a felony,

                     (B)    theft from the Employer,

                     (C)    breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit,

                     (D)    sustained and continuous conduct by Employee which
                            adversely affects the reputation of the Employer,

                     (E)    continued failure of the Employee to substantially
                            and satisfactorily perform his duties or obligations
                            under this Agreement following twenty (20) days'
                            notice by the Employer to the Employee and a failure
                            by the Employee to correct the deficiency cited in
                            such notice (other than any such failure resulting
                            from Employee's incapacity due to physical or mental
                            illness).

         (b)      The Employee shall have no right to terminate his employment
                  under this Agreement prior to the end of the Term of this
                  Agreement, unless such termination is either for Good Reason
                  (as described in Section 9(a) hereof) in connection with, or
                  within two (2) years after a Change in Control or approved by
                  the Board of Directors of the Employer. In the event that the
                  Employee violates this provision, or in the event that
                  Employee is terminated for Cause, Employee shall be entitled
                  to no further payments pursuant to this Agreement.

9.       CHANGE IN CONTROL.

<PAGE>
         (a)  (i)    If during the Term of this Agreement there is a Change in
                     Control of the Employer, and Employee's employment with the
                     Employer is terminated involuntarily (other than for
                     Cause), or voluntarily for Good Reason (as defined below),
                     and in each case within two (2) years after such Change in
                     Control, then the Employee shall be entitled as a severance
                     payment, for services previously rendered to the Employer,
                     a lump sum cash payment as provided in Section 9(a)(ii)
                     below.

              (ii)   Subject to Section 9(c) hereof, the lump sum cash payment
                     (the "Payment") shall be in an amount equal to two (2)
                     times the Employee's average annual compensation which was
                     payable by the Employer and was includible by the Employee
                     in his gross income for federal income tax purposes with
                     respect to the five (5) most recent taxable years of the
                     Employee ending prior to such Change in Control of the
                     Employer (or such portion of such period during which the
                     Employee was a full-time employee of the Employer), less
                     one dollar.

              (iii)  As used herein, the term "Good Reason" means, unless
                     previously consented to in writing by the Employee, the
                     occurrence of any one of the following:

                     (A)    the assignment to the Employee of duties and
                            responsibilities that are not at least substantially
                            equivalent to the Employee's duties and
                            responsibilities with the Employer immediately prior
                            to such Change in Control;

                     (B)    the failure to continue the Employee in a position
                            and title that is at least substantially equivalent
                            to the position held by the Employee with the
                            Employer immediately prior to such Change in
                            Control, except in connection with the termination
                            of the Employee's employment for Cause or as a
                            result of death or permanent disability;

                     (C)    a reduction in or failure to pay currently total
                            annual cash compensation in an amount equal to or
                            greater than the sum of (i) the Employee's salary at
                            the highest annual rate in effect during the 12-
                            month period immediately prior to such Change in
                            Control, and (ii) the bonus paid to similarly
                            situated employees pursuant to the acquiring
                            Employer's executive bonus plan for the fiscal year
                            ending immediately prior to such Change in Control;

                     (D)    the Employee's benefits under any employee benefit
                            or welfare plan of the acquiring Employer are less,
                            or are reduced to less, other than reductions
                            mandated by a change in law, than the benefits of
                            similarly situated employees under any employee
                            benefit or welfare plan of the

<PAGE>
                            acquiring Employer in effect immediately prior to
                            such Change in Control;

                     (E)    the Employee is reassigned to a place of business
                            which is more than 50 miles from Hudson, New
                            Hampshire; or

                     (F)    any breach by the Employer of this Agreement.

              (iv)   Payment under this Section 9(a) shall be in lieu of any
                     amount owed to the Employee as liquidated damages for
                     termination without Cause under Sections 8(a)(i) and (ii)
                     hereof. However, payment under this Section 9(a) shall not
                     be reduced by any compensation which the Employee may
                     receive from other employment with another employer after
                     termination of his employment with the Employer.

         (b)      A "Change in Control of the Employer," for purposes of this
                  Agreement, shall be deemed to have taken place if: (i) a third
                  person, including a "group" as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of
                  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, becomes the beneficial
                  owner of shares of the Employer having 20 percent or more of
                  the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of
                  directors of the Employer; or (ii) as the result of, or in
                  connection with, any cash tender or exchange offer, merger, or
                  other business combination, sale of assets or contested
                  election, or any combination of the foregoing transactions,
                  the persons who were directors of the Employer before such
                  transaction shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board
                  of Directors of the Employer or any successor institution.

         (c)      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or of
                  any other agreement, contract, or understanding heretofore or
                  hereafter entered into by the Employee with the Employer,
                  except an agreement, contract, or understanding hereafter
                  entered into that expressly modifies or excludes application
                  of this Section 9(c) ("Other Agreements"), and notwithstanding
                  any formal or informal plan or other arrangement heretofore or
                  hereafter adopted by the Employer for the direct or indirect
                  provision of compensation to the Employee (including groups or
                  classes of participants or beneficiaries of which the Employee
                  is a member), whether or not such compensation is deferred, is
                  in cash, or is in the form of a benefit to or for the Employee
                  (a "Benefit Plan"), the Employee shall not have any right to
                  receive any payment or other benefit under this Agreement, any
                  Other Agreement, or any Benefit Plan if such payment or
                  benefit, taking into account all other payments or benefits to
                  or for the Employee under this Agreement, all Other
                  Agreements, and all Benefit Plans, would cause any payment to
                  the Employee under this Agreement to be considered a
                  "parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)
                  of the Internal Revenue Code as then in effect (a "Parachute
                  Payment"), as determined by a nationally recognized accounting
                  firm selected by the Board. In the event that the receipt of
                  any such payment or benefit under this Agreement, any Other
                  Agreement, or any Benefit Plan would cause the Employee to be
                  considered to have received a Parachute Payment under this
                  Agreement, then the Employee shall have

<PAGE>

                  the right, in the Employee's sole discretion, to designate
                  those payments or benefits under this Agreement, any Other
                  Agreements, and/or any Benefit Plans, which should be reduced
                  or eliminated so as to avoid having the payment to the
                  Employee under this Agreement be deemed to be a Parachute
                  Payment.

10.      EXPENSES; AUTOMOBILE ALLOWANCE.

         (a)      The Employee is authorized to incur, during the Term of this
                  Agreement, reasonable expenses for promoting the business of
                  the Employer, including without limitation expenses for
                  entertainment, travel and similar items. The Employer will
                  promptly reimburse the Employee for all such expenses, upon
                  the presentation by the Employee, from time to time, of an
                  itemized account of such expenses.

         (b)      During the Term of this Agreement, the Employer shall buy or
                  lease a full-size luxury vehicle of Employer's choosing for
                  the Employer's exclusive use and/or, at the Employee's option,
                  provide Employee with a monthly automobile allowance in an
                  amount sufficient to pay Employee's costs for the purchase or
                  lease of such a vehicle, and the Employer shall reimburse the
                  Employee (upon submission by him of reasonably itemized
                  accounts thereof) for all maintenance, repairs, insurance,
                  gasoline, tolls, parking and other reasonable upkeep and
                  related expenses on such vehicle.

11.      NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION, NON-DISCLOSURE AND ASSIGNMENT OF
         INVENTIONS AGREEMENT. As a condition of and in exchange for Employer
         entering into this Agreement, the Employee will contemporaneously sign
         and execute a Non-competition, Non-solicitation, Non-disclosure and
         Assignment of Inventions Agreement (the "Non-competition Agreement") in
         the form attached as Exhibit A hereto. The terms and conditions of the
         Non-competition Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into
         this Agreement in their entirety. The Non-competition Agreement will
         remain in force and effect after the termination of this Agreement and
         after termination of Employee's employment for any reason.
         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon any
         violation or threatened violation by the Employee of any covenants or
         obligations of the Employee contained in the Non-competition Agreement,
         any payments otherwise due to Employee under this Agreement shall
         cease. The cessation of such payments shall be in addition to any other
         remedies available to the Company, whether at law or in equity, in
         connection with such violations or threatened violations.

12.      LEGAL EXPENSES. The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless the
         Employee from and against any and all costs and liabilities, including
         without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or in
         connection with becoming, being or having been an officer or director
         of the Employer, except in relation to matters as to which the Employee
         shall be finally adjudged not to have acted in good faith in the
         reasonable belief that his action or failure to act was in the best

        NONCOMPETITION, NONSOLICITATION, NONDISCLOSURE AND ASSIGNMENT OF
                              INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

                                 (FOR OFFICERS)

     In consideration for and as a condition of employment and/or continued
employment as an officer and/or employee (the "EMPLOYEE") of PRESSTEK, INC., a
Delaware corporation, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively,
the "COMPANY"), and/or in consideration of receiving options to purchase shares
of capital stock of the Company and/or in consideration of receiving any other
form of compensation from or in the Company and/or in consideration of being
entitled to participate in any benefit or stock purchase plan of the Company and
specifically as a condition of entering into the Employment Agreement (as
defined below), the undersigned Employee hereby agrees with the Company as
follows:

     1.   NONCOMPETITION. During the period of employment as an officer and/or
employee of the Company, the Employee will devote his available business time
and best efforts to promoting and advancing the business of the Company. During
the period of employment and for the Post-Employment Period after termination of
employment, the Employee agrees that he or she will not, in any jurisdiction
around the world in which the Company conducts business, whether alone or as a
partner, officer, director, consultant, agent, employee or stockholder of any
company or other commercial enterprise, engage in any business or other
commercial activity which is or may be competitive with the products and
services being designed, conceived, marketed, distributed or developed by the
Company at the time of termination of such employment.

     2.   NONSOLICITATION.

          (a)  During the period of employment by the Company and for the
Post-Employment Period after termination of employment, the Employee will not
directly or indirectly either for himself or for any other person or commercial
enterprise (1) divert or take away or attempt to divert or take away, any of the
Company's customers or business in existence at the time of termination of such
employment with whom the Employee had contact, for whom the Employee performed
services during his employment with the Company and/or that were made known to
the Employee by the Company during his employment with the Company; and/or (2)
solicit or attempt to solicit, with the purpose or effect of engaging in
competition with the Company, any of the Company's customers or business in
existence at the time of termination of such employment with whom the Employee
had contact, for whom the Employee performed services during his employment with
the Company and/or that were made known to the Employee by the Company during
his employment with the Company.

          (b)  During the period of employment by the Company and for the
Post-Employment Period after termination of employment, the Employee will not
directly or indirectly either for himself or for any other person or commercial
enterprise (1) solicit or induce any employee to terminate his or her employment
relationship with the Company, and/or (2) recruit, attempt to recruit, hire, or
attempt to hire any Company employee other than on behalf of the Company.

     3.   NONDISCLOSURE OBLIGATION. The Employee will not at any time, whether
during or after the termination of employment, for any reason whatsoever, reveal
or disclose to any person or entity (both commercial and non-commercial) any of
the trade secrets or confidential business information of

<PAGE>

                                       -2-

the Company including, but not limited to, its research and development
activities; product designs, prototypes and technical specifications; show-how
and know-how; marketing plans and strategies; pricing and costing policies;
customer and supplier lists and accounts; personnel information; or nonpublic
financial information of the Company so far as they have come or may come to the
Employee's knowledge, except as may be required in the ordinary course of
performing his duties as an employee of the Company. This restriction shall NOT
apply to: (i) information that is in the public domain through no fault of the
Employee; (ii) information received from a third party outside the Company that
was disclosed without a breach of any confidentiality obligation; (iii)
information approved for release by written authorization of the Company; or
(iv) information that may be required by law or an order of any court, agency or
proceeding to be disclosed. The Employee shall keep secret all matters of such
nature and all trade secrets or confidential business information concerning the
Company entrusted to him and shall not rely upon, use or disclose any such
information for the benefit of the Employee or any third party in any manner.

     4.   ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS. The Employee expressly understands and
agrees that any and all right or interest he may obtain in any designs, trade
secrets, technical specifications and technical data, know-how and show-how,
customer and vendor lists, marketing plans, pricing policies, inventions,
concepts, ideas, works of authorship, documentation, formulae, data, designs,
techniques, discoveries, improvements or intellectual property rights of any
kind or any interest therein (whether or not patentable or registrable under
copyright, trademark or similar statutes (including, but not limited to, the
Semiconductor Chip Protection Act) or subject to analogous protection) that he,
whether alone or jointly with others, authors, conceives, devises, develops,
reduces to practice, or otherwise obtains during the Employee's employment with
the Company, and that (i) relate to or arise out of his employment with the
Company; (ii) relate to the Company's present or planned business or any of the
products or services being designed, conceived, developed, marketed,
manufactured or distributed by the Company or that may be used in relation
therewith; (iii) result from the use of premises or personal property (whether
tangible or intangible) owned, leased or contracted for by the Company; (iv)
result from activities engaged in during Company time; and/or (v) result from
use of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company whether such use
occurred prior to or during the Employee's employment with the Company (the
"INVENTIONS"), are and shall immediately become the sole and absolute property
of the Company and its assigns, as works made for hire or otherwise.

The Employee hereby assigns to the Company the sole and exclusive right to such
Inventions. The Employee agrees that he will promptly disclose to the Company
any and all such Inventions, and that, upon request of the Company, the Employee
will execute and deliver any and all documents or instruments and take any other
action which the Company shall deem necessary to assign to and vest completely
in the Company, to perfect trademark, copyright and patent protection with
respect to, or to otherwise protect the Company's trade secrets and proprietary
interest in, such Inventions. The Company agrees to pay any and all copyright,
trademark and patent fees and expenses or other costs incurred by the Employee
for any assistance rendered to the Company pursuant to this Section.

In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure the
Employee's signature on any letters, patent, copyright or other analogous
protection relating to an Invention, the Employee hereby irrevocably designates
and appoints the Company and any of its officers as his agent and
attorney-in-fact, to act for and on his behalf and stead to execute and file any
such application or applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to
further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent, copyright or other
analogous protection thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed
by the Employee. The obligations in this Section shall continue beyond the
termination of Employee's employment.

     5.   ABSENCE OF CONFLICTING AGREEMENTS. The Employee understands the
Company does not desire to acquire from him any trade secrets, know-how or
confidential business information that he may have acquired from others, and
represents and agrees that he will not use any such materials or information in
connection with his employment with the Company. The Employee represents that he
is not bound by any agreement or any other existing or previous business
relationship that conflicts with or prevents the full performance of the
Employee's duties and obligations to the Company during the course of
employment.

     6.   REMEDIES UPON BREACH. The Employee agrees that any breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement by the Employee will cause irreparable
damage to the Company. The Company shall have, in addition to any and all
remedies of law, the right to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent
or cease any violation of the Employee's obligations hereunder.

     7.   MISCELLANEOUS. Any waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision
of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent breach hereof. The Employee and the Company agree that each provision
herein shall be treated as a separate and independent clause, and the
unenforceability of any one clause shall in no way impair the enforceability of
any of the other clauses of the Agreement. Moreover, if one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be
excessively broad as to scope, activity or subject matter so as to be
unenforceable at law, such provision(s) shall be construed and reformed by the
appropriate judicial body by limiting and reducing it (or them), and/or severing
it from the Agreement so as to render the Agreement enforceable to the maximum
extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear. The
obligations of the Employee under this Agreement shall survive the termination
of the Employee's relationship with the Company regardless of the manner of such
termination. All covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit
of and be enforceable by the successors of the Company. This Agreement shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of
New Hampshire. The Employee understands that this Agreement does not create an
obligation on the part of the Company to continue the Employee's employment with
the Company. Any references to gender herein shall be construed to apply equally
to either gender.

     The Employee recognizes and agrees that the enforcement of this Agreement
is necessary to ensure the preservation, protection and continuity of the
confidential business information, trade secrets, workforce and goodwill of the
Company. The Employee agrees that, due to the proprietary nature of the
Company's business, the restrictions set forth in Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 of this
Agreement are reasonable as to duration and scope.

     8.   DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall
have the following meanings:

     "EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT" means the Employment Agreement dated the date hereof
between the Company and the Employee.

     "POST-EMPLOYMENT PERIOD" shall mean the period of time that is the greater
of: (a) the Severance Period (if Employee is entitled to Severance Payments by
reason of Section 8(a)(ii) of the Employment Agreement) and (b) one (1) year.
Capitalized terms used in this definition and not otherwise defined shall have
the meaning given to such terms in the Employment Agreement.
