         carried over to any succeeding  year or years.  In the event  Executive
         carries  forward any unused  vacation time, he shall be entitled to use

         employment hereunder, he may acquire confidential information and trade
         secrets  concerning the operation of Company,  the  unauthorized use or
         disclosure  of which could cause Company  substantial  loss and damages
         which  could not be readily  calculated  and for which no remedy at law
         would be adequate.  Accordingly,  Executive  covenants  and agrees with
         Company  that he will not,  either  during  the term of his  employment
         hereunder  and for a period  of one (1) year  after the  expiration  or
         termination of this Agreement,  disclose, furnish or make accessible to
         any person,  firm or corporation  (except (i) in the ordinary course of
         business in performance of Executive's obligations to Company hereunder
         or (ii) when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by
         any   governmental,   administrative   or  legislative   agency  having
         supervisory  authority  over the  business of Company or (iii) with the
         prior  written  consent of Company  pursuant to authority  granted by a
         resolution of the Board of Directors) any confidential information that
         Executive  has learned or may learn by reason of his  association  with
         Company.  As used herein,  the term  "confidential  information"  shall
         include,  without  limitation,  proprietary  information not previously
         disclosed  to the public or to the trade by Company with respect to the
         business  or affairs of Company or which is  otherwise  made  public or
         disclosed to a third party by persons other than Executive; or of which
         disclosure is compelled by judicial or governmental process, including,
         without  limitation,  information  relating to business  opportunities,
         customer  lists,  price  lists,  trade  secrets,  systems,  techniques,
         procedures,  methods,  inventions,  facilities,  financial information,
         business plans or prospects.

         9.2 Non-Competition.  During the period of his employment hereunder and
         , for nine months  thereafter,  Executive  agrees that,  without  first
         obtaining  the  prior  written  consent  of  Company,  (A) he will not,
         directly or indirectly,  either as principal,  manager, agent, officer,
         stockholder,  partner,  investor,  lender or  Executive or in any other
         similar  capacity,  carry on,  be  engaged  in,  or have any  financial
         interest in, any  business  which is directly in  competition  with the
         business of Company  and/or its  subsidiaries  or affiliates and (B) he
         shall  not,  on his own  behalf  or on behalf  of any  person,  firm or
         company,  directly or  indirectly,  solicit or offer  employment to any

         person who has been employed by Company or any of its affiliates at any
         time during the nine months  immediately  preceding such  solicitation.
         For the purposes of this provision,  employment by a health maintenance
         organization or provider organization that develops, owns or operates a
         disease  management  system  which is used by or for its own members or
         membership and is not sold to other HMOs or provider systems, shall not
         be deemed  directly nor  indirectly  "competitive"  with the  Company's
         business.   Further,  following  the  termination  of  this  Agreement,
         Executive shall not be prohibited from providing consulting services to
         other HMOs, provider systems and/or trade  organizations  provided that
         such consulting services do not result directly in the offering or sale
         of disease  management  services to persons  other than the  consulting
         client's own members or membership.

10.      INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.

         Without intending to limit the remedies available to Company, Executive
acknowledges  that a breach  of the  covenants  contained  in  Section 9 of this
Agreement may result in material  irreparable  injury to Company for which there
is no adequate  remedy at law,  that it will not be possible to measure  damages
for such injuries precisely. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that, upon adequate
proof of Executive's violation of any legally enforceable provision of Section 9
above,  the Company  shall be entitled to obtain a temporary  restraining  order
and/or a preliminary or permanent injunction restraining Executive from engaging
in activities prohibited by such Section or such other relief as may be required
to specifically enforce any of the covenants in such Section.

11.      ASSIGNMENT.

         This  contract  shall be binding  upon and inure to the  benefit of the
heirs and  representatives  of  Executive  and the  assigns  and  successors  of
Company,  but neither this  Agreement  nor any rights or  obligations  hereunder
shall be assignable or otherwise  subject to hypothecation by Executive  (except
by will or by  operation  of the laws of  intestate  succession)  or by Company,
except that  Company  may assign this  Agreement  to any  successor  (whether by
merger,  purchase or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the stock, assets
or  businesses  of Company,  if such  successor  expressly  agrees to assume the
obligations of Company hereunder.

         corporation  or pursuant to which shares of the  Entity's  Common Stock
         would be converted into cash, securities or other property,  other than

         Stock  immediately  prior to the  merger  have  substantially  the same
         proportionate  ownership of common stock of the  surviving  corporation
         immediately after the merger, or (B)

         such  period,  constituted  the Board of  Directors of the Entity shall

         the   election  or  the   nomination   for  election  by  the  Entity's
         stockholders  of each new  director  during  such  two-year  period was
         approved by a vote of at least  two-thirds of the directors  then still
         in office, who were directors at the beginning of such two-year period.

         12.2 Rights and  Obligations.  If a Change in Control of the Company or

                                   Schedule 2

The adjusted  consolidated net earnings ("Adjusted Net Earnings") of the Company
and its  subsidiaries,  for the purpose of computing the Executives'  contingent
vesting of stock options under the provisions of paragraph  5.2(a) above,  shall
be determined,  in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles,
within  ninety (90) days after the end of each  fiscal  year by the  independent
accounting firm employed by the Company as its auditors. The computation by such
accounting  firm  of the  Adjusted  Net  Earnings,  made  in the  manner  herein
provided,  shall be in all respects final and binding upon the Company, upon the
Executive,  and upon all others,  and the Company shall pay such compensation to
the Executive within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year in question.

         For the purpose of computing the Executive contingent compensation, the
Adjusted  Net  Earnings  of the  Company  and its  subsidiaries  for  the  above
mentioned  period shall be the  consolidated net earnings of the Company and its
subsidiaries for such period,  as audited and reported upon, for the purposes of
the Company's  annual report to stockholders  for such period,  by the Company's
independent  auditors,  plus all amounts charged against such  consolidated  net
earnings in respect of the following:

         (i)               Taxes of the United  States and  foreign  governments
                           (including,  but without  limitation,  excess profits
                           taxes) based upon or  measured,  in whole or in part,
                           by  income of the  Company  or its  subsidiaries  but
                           exclusive  of sate and  territorial  taxes  and taxes
                           imposed by political subdivisions thereof;

         (ii)              Contingent compensation, if any, which may be payable
                           by the Company under any plan or agreement, including
                           this  Agreement,  other  than a  profit-sharing  plan
                           qualified  under Section 401 of the Internal  Revenue
                           Code or any statutory provision that may hereafter be
                           enacted to replace such section;

         (iii)             All   items   of   non-recurring    loss   or   other
                           extraordinary   charge  which,  by  reason  of  size,
                           character,  or other factors did not, in the sole and
                           uncontrolled  judgment  of the  Board  of  Directors,
                           arise  in  the  ordinary  and  usual  course  of  the
                           business  of  the   Company  and  its   subsidiaries,
                           including expenses properly attributable to such loss
                           or charge;

less, however, all amounts included in such consolidated net earnings in respect
of items of capital gain,  non-recurring  profit, or other extraordinary  credit
which, by reason of size,  character,  or other factors did not, in the sole and
uncontrolled judgment of the Board of Directors, arise in the ordinary and usual
course of business of the Company and its subsidiaries, after deducting expenses
properly  attributable to such gain, profit, or credit, except and to the extent
that the Board of Directors,  in its sole and uncontrolled judgment,  shall find
that the Executive was  responsible for such gain,  profit,  or credit and shall
direct the inclusion,  in whole or in part, of such gain,  profit,  or credit in
the computation of consolidated net earnings.
