                  Period; and

employment by the Company or the Executive shall be communicated by a written

         (a)      "EMPLOYMENT TERMINATION DATE" shall mean the date on which the

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

                  (3)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by the
                           Company for Cause, the date on which a Notice of
                           Termination is given;
                  (4)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by the
                           Company other than for Cause or the death of the
                           Executive, the date specified in the Notice of
                           Termination; and
                  (5)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by
                           voluntary action of the Executive, the date specified
                           in the Notice of Termination.

         (b)      Termination Upon Executive's Death. In the event of the
                  Executive's death, the Company shall pay to the Executive's
                  estate any unpaid amount of Salary, benefits and un-reimbursed
                  expenses through the date of death.

         (c)      Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate the
                  Executive's employment hereunder and the Employment Period
                  for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, "CAUSE" shall
                  mean termination because of the Executive's personal
                  dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, excessive
                  absences, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit,
                  failure to perform required duties, violation of any law, rule
                  or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar
                  offenses) or the material breach of any provision of this
                  Agreement. If the Executive's employment is terminated for
                  Cause, the Company shall pay the Executive (or his successors)
                  his unpaid Salary, benefits and un-reimbursed expenses through
                  the Employment Termination Date.

         (d)      Compensation Upon Termination by Company Other Than for Cause.
                  If the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment
                  after its ninety (90) day probationary period for any reason
                  other than pursuant to Sections 9(b) or 9(c), then the Company
                  shall pay to the Executive his unpaid Salary, benefits and un-
                  reimbursed expenses for the remainder of the Employment
                  Period. Further, the Company shall immediately vest all
                  unvested Options in accordance with the grants provided in
                  Section 6 as would have been paid during the tenure of this
                  Agreement had the Executive not been terminated, and allow the
                  Executive one year from the Employment Termination Date in
                  which to exercise such Options.

         (e)      Termination by Executive. In the event that the Executive
                  voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company prior
                  to the expiration of the Employment Period, the Executive
                  shall be entitle only to the payment of the amounts which
                  would be payable to him under Section 9(c) above as if he had
                  been terminated for cause. However, in the event that the
                  Executive terminates his employment with the Company prior to
                  the expiration of the Employment Period for a good cause due
                  to a material adverse change in the condition of his
                  employment, and such adverse change is confirmed by an
                  independent arbitrator to be a reasonable reason to resign,
                  then the Executive shall be entitled to Severance Pay. For the
                  purposes of this Agreement, "SEVERANCE PAY" shall mean Salary
                  equivalent to

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

                  one week's salary for each completed month of service, but not
                  to exceed the completion of the Company's Salary obligations
                  during the Employment Period.

SECTION 10. COMPANY PROTECTION PROVISIONS. The following provisions apply for
the protection of the Company and shall survive indefinitely beyond the duration
of this Agreement:

         (a)      Non-Competition. During the Restricted Period (as hereinafter
                  defined), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly
                  compete with the Company by owning, managing, controlling or
                  participating in the ownership, management or control of, or
                  be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or
                  associated with any Competitive Business in any location in
                  which the Company is doing business as of the Employment
                  Termination Date. As used herein, the term "RESTRICTED PERIOD"
                  means the Employment Period and a period of six months
                  thereafter. As used herein, a "Competitive Business" is any
                  other corporation, limited liability company, partnership,
                  proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity
                  that is engaged in any business from which the Company has
                  derived more than 10% of its revenues during the twelve months
                  preceding the Employment Termination Date or in which the
                  Company has invested 10% or more of its total assets as of the
                  time in question.

         (b)      Non-Interference. During the Restricted Period, the Executive
                  shall not induce or solicit any employee of the Company or any
                  person doing business with the Company to terminate his or her
                  employment or business relationship with the Company or
                  otherwise interfere with any such relationship.

         (c)      Confidentiality. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that,
                  by reason of the nature of his duties as an officer and
                  employee, he will have or may have access to and become
                  informed of confidential and secret information which is a
                  competitive asset of the Company ("CONFIDENTIAL
                  INFORMATION"), including without limitation any lists of
                  customers or subscribers, financial statistics, research data
                  or any other statistics and plans contained in profit plans,
                  capital plans, critical issue plans, strategic plans or
                  marketing or operation plans or other trade secrets of the
                  Company and any of the foregoing which belong to any person or
                  company to which the Executive has access by reason of his
                  employment relationship with the Company. The Executive agrees
                  faithfully to keep in strict confidence, and not, either
                  directly or indirectly, to make known, divulge, reveal,
                  furnish, make available or use (except for use in the regular
                  course of his employment duties) any such Confidential
                  Information. The Executive acknowledges that all manuals,
                  instruction books, price lists, experiment logs or papers,
                  information and records and other information and aids
                  relating to the Company's business, and any and all other
                  documents containing Confidential Information furnished to
                  the Executive by the Company or otherwise acquired or
                  developed by the Executive, shall at all times be the property
                  of the

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

                  Company. Upon termination of the Employment Period, the
                  Executive shall return to the Company any such property or
                  documents which are in his possession, custody or control, but
                  his obligation of confidentiality shall survive such
                  termination of Employment Period until and unless any such
                  Confidential Information shall have become, through no fault
                  of the Executive, generally known to the trade. The
                  obligations of the Executive under this subsection are in
                  addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, all other
                  obligations of confidentiality that the Executive may have to
                  the Company under general legal or equitable principles.

         (d)      Remedies. It is expressly agreed by the Executive and the
                  Company that these provisions are reasonable for purposes of
                  preserving for the Company its business, goodwill and
                  proprietary information. It is also agreed that if any
                  provision is found by a court having jurisdiction to be
                  unreasonable because of scope, area or time, then that
                  provision shall be amended to correspond in scope, area or
                  time to that considered reasonable by a court and as amended
                  shall be enforced and the remaining provisions shall remain
                  effective. In the event of any breach of these provisions by
                  the Executive, the parties recognize and acknowledge that a
                  remedy at law will be inadequate and the Company may suffer
                  irreparable injury. The Executive acknowledges that the
                  services to be rendered by him are of a character giving them
                  peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be adequately
                  compensated for in damages; accordingly, the Executive
                  consents to injunctive and other appropriate equitable relief
                  without the posting of any type of bond or surety upon the
                  initiation of proceedings therefore by the Company in order to
                  protect the Company's rights. Such relief shall be in addition
                  to any other relief to which the Company may be entitled at
                  law or in equity.

SECTION 11. INDEMNIFICATION. As an officer of the Company, the Executive shall
be indemnified by the Company in accordance with the indemnification provisions
of the Company's Bylaws, and otherwise to the extent to which officers of a
corporation registered under the laws of Florida may be indemnified pursuant to
Section 607.0850 of the Florida statutes and to the extent to which officers of
a corporation organized under the laws of Nevada may be indemnified pursuant to
Nevada statutes.

SECTION 12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as hereinafter expressly provided,
the agreements, covenants, terms and provisions of this Agreement shall bind the
respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the
parties. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties shall,
without the consent of the other, assign or transfer this Agreement or any
rights or obligations hereunder, except as provided in this Section 12. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Executive's right to receive payments hereunder
shall not be assignable or transferable, whether by pledge, creation of

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

a security interest or otherwise, and in the event of any attempted assignment
or transfer in contravention of this Section 12, the Company shall have no
liability to pay to the purported assignee or transferee any amount so attempted
to be assigned or transferred.

action or legal proceeding must be brought in Palm Beach County, Florida; (b)
consents to the jurisdiction of such court in any suit, action or proceeding;
(c) waives any objection which it may have to the laying of venue of any such
suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts; and (d) agrees that service of

                  of the Company for which Executives are or shall become
                  eligible. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent
                  the Board of Directors from amending or otherwise altering any

for all reasonable and necessary business expenses, including all normal and
necessary moving expenses, incurred in providing services to the Company upon
the Executive's submission of appropriate documentation evidencing such expenses
in accordance with the Company's reimbursement policies as determined from time

SECTION 9. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Any termination of the Executive's
employment by the Company or the Executive shall be communicated by a written
Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement,
a "NOTICE OF TERMINATION" shall mean a notice that shall indicate the provisions
in this Agreement relied upon.

         (a)      "EMPLOYMENT TERMINATION DATE" shall mean the date on which the
                  Employment Period and the Executive's right and obligation to
                  perform employment services for the Company shall terminate
                  effective upon the first to occur of the following:
                  (1)      The expiration of the Employment Period;

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

                  (3)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by the
                           Company for Cause, the date on which a Notice of
                           Termination is given;
                  (4)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by the
                           Company other than for Cause or the death of the
                           Executive, the date specified in the Notice of
                           Termination; and
                  (5)      If the Executive's employment is terminated by
                           voluntary action of the Executive, the date specified
                           in the Notice of Termination.

         (b)      Termination Upon Executive's Death. In the event of the
                  Executive's death, the Company shall pay to the Executive's
                  estate any unpaid amount of Salary, benefits and un-reimbursed
                  expenses through the date of death.

         (c)      Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate the
                  Executive's employment hereunder and the Employment Period
                  for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, "CAUSE" shall
                  mean termination because of the Executive's personal
                  dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, excessive
                  absences, breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit,
                  failure to perform required duties, violation of any law, rule
                  or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar
                  offenses) or the material breach of any provision of this
                  Agreement. If the Executive's employment is terminated for
                  Cause, the Company shall pay the Executive (or his successors)
                  his unpaid Salary, benefits and un-reimbursed expenses through
                  the Employment Termination Date.

         (d)      Compensation Upon Termination by Company Other Than for Cause.
                  If the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment
                  after its ninety (90) day probationary period for any reason
                  other than pursuant to Sections 9(b) or 9(c), then the Company
                  shall pay to the Executive his unpaid Salary, benefits and un-
                  reimbursed expenses. Further, the Company shall immediately
                  vest all unvested Options in accordance with the grants
                  provided in Section 6 as would have been paid during the
                  tenure of this Agreement had the Executive not been
                  terminated, and allow the Executive one year from the
                  Employment Termination Date in which to exercise such Options.

         (e)      Termination by Executive. In the event that the Executive
                  voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company prior
                  to the expiration of the Employment Period, the Executive
                  shall be entitle only to the payment of the amounts which
                  would be payable to him under Section 9(c) above as if he had
                  been terminated for cause. However, in the event that the
                  Executive terminates his employment with the Company prior to
                  the expiration of the Employment Period due to a material
                  adverse change in the condition of his employment, and such
                  adverse change is confirmed by an independent arbitrator to be
                  a reasonable reason to resign, then the Executive shall be
                  entitled to Severance Pay. For the purposes of this Agreement,
                  "SEVERANCE PAY" shall mean Salary equivalent to one week's

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

                  salary for each completed month of service, but not to exceed
                  the completion of the Company's Salary obligations during the
                  Employment Period.

SECTION 10. COMPANY PROTECTION PROVISIONS. The following provisions apply for
the protection of the Company and shall survive indefinitely beyond the duration
of this Agreement:

         (a)      Non-Competition. During the Restricted Period (as hereinafter
                  defined), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly
                  compete with the Company by owning, managing, controlling or
                  participating in the ownership, management or control of, or
                  be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or
                  associated with any Competitive Business in any location in
                  which the Company is doing business as of the Employment
                  Termination Date. As used herein, the term "RESTRICTED PERIOD"
                  means the Employment Period and a period of six months
                  thereafter. As used herein, a "Competitive Business" is any
                  other corporation, limited liability company, partnership,
                  proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity
                  that is engaged in any business from which the Company has
                  derived more than 10% of its revenues during the twelve months
                  preceding the Employment Termination Date or in which the
                  Company has invested 10% or more of its total assets as of the
                  time in question.

         (b)      Non-Interference. During the Restricted Period, the Executive
                  shall not induce or solicit any employee of the Company or any
                  person doing business with the Company to terminate his or her
                  employment or business relationship with the Company or
                  otherwise interfere with any such relationship.

         (c)      Confidentiality. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that,
                  by reason of the nature of his duties as an officer and
                  employee, he will have or may have access to and become
                  informed of confidential and secret information which is a
                  competitive asset of the Company ("CONFIDENTIAL
                  INFORMATION"), including without limitation any lists of
                  customers or subscribers, financial statistics, research data
                  or any other statistics and plans contained in profit plans,
                  capital plans, critical issue plans, strategic plans or
                  marketing or operation plans or other trade secrets of the
                  Company and any of the foregoing which belong to any person or
                  company to which the Executive has access by reason of his
                  employment relationship with the Company. The Executive agrees
                  faithfully to keep in strict confidence, and not, either
                  directly or indirectly, to make known, divulge, reveal,
                  furnish, make available or use (except for use in the regular
                  course of his employment duties) any such Confidential
                  Information. The Executive acknowledges that all manuals,
                  instruction books, price lists, experiment logs or papers,
                  information and records and other information and aids
                  relating to the Company's business, and any and all other
                  documents containing Confidential Information furnished to
                  the Executive by the Company or otherwise acquired or
                  developed by the Executive, shall at all times be the property
                  of the

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

                  Company. Upon termination of the Employment Period, the
                  Executive shall return to the Company any such property or
                  documents which are in his possession, custody or control, but
                  his obligation of confidentiality shall survive such
                  termination of Employment Period until and unless any such
                  Confidential Information shall have become, through no fault
                  of the Executive, generally known to the trade. The
                  obligations of the Executive under this subsection are in
                  addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, all other
                  obligations of confidentiality that the Executive may have to
                  the Company under general legal or equitable principles.

         (d)      Remedies. It is expressly agreed by the Executive and the
                  Company that these provisions are reasonable for purposes of
                  preserving for the Company its business, goodwill and
                  proprietary information. It is also agreed that if any
                  provision is found by a court having jurisdiction to be
                  unreasonable because of scope, area or time, then that
                  provision shall be amended to correspond in scope, area or
                  time to that considered reasonable by a court and as amended
                  shall be enforced and the remaining provisions shall remain
                  effective. In the event of any breach of these provisions by
                  the Executive, the parties recognize and acknowledge that a
                  remedy at law will be inadequate and the Company may suffer
                  irreparable injury. The Executive acknowledges that the
                  services to be rendered by him are of a character giving them
                  peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be adequately
                  compensated for in damages; accordingly, the Executive
                  consents to injunctive and other appropriate equitable relief
                  without the posting of any type of bond or surety upon the
                  initiation of proceedings therefore by the Company in order to
                  protect the Company's rights. Such relief shall be in addition
                  to any other relief to which the Company may be entitled at
                  law or in equity.

SECTION 11. INDEMNIFICATION. As an officer of the Company, the Executive shall
be indemnified by the Company in accordance with the indemnification provisions
of the Company's Bylaws, and otherwise to the extent to which officers of a
corporation registered under the laws of Florida may be indemnified pursuant to
Section 607.0850 of the Florida statutes and to the extent to which officers of
a corporation organized under the laws of Nevada may be indemnified pursuant to
Nevada statutes.

SECTION 12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as hereinafter expressly provided,
the agreements, covenants, terms and provisions of this Agreement shall bind the
respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the
parties. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties shall,
without the consent of the other, assign or transfer this Agreement or any
rights or obligations hereunder, except as provided in this Section 12. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Executive's right to receive payments hereunder
shall not be assignable or transferable, whether by pledge, creation of

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

a security interest or otherwise, and in the event of any attempted assignment
or transfer in contravention of this Section 12, the Company shall have no
liability to pay to the purported assignee or transferee any amount so attempted
to be assigned or transferred.

SECTION 13. NOTICES. All notices and other communications that are required or
may be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered
personally or by express mail or by certified mail addressed to the party
concerned at the addresses noted below, or as notified in writing, if changed.

construed, interpreted and enforced under and with reference to the laws of the
State of Florida. It is the intention of the Company and the Executive to fully
comply with all laws and matters of public policy relating to employment
