                  Company to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential
                  Information, and to preserve its goodwill, constitute

                  U.S. Company are entitled to protect;

         (f)      the Employee rightfully obtains from a third party who has the
                  right to transfer or disclose it.

The Employee acknowledges that the foregoing covenant is necessary and
fundamental for the protection of the businesses of Cool Entertainment and the
U.S. Company and that a breach by the Employee of such covenant would result in
damage to Cool Entertainment and the U.S. Company which would not be adequately
compensated by an award of damages to Cool Entertainment or the U.S. Company and

<PAGE>
                                     - 6 -

decreed or issued by any court of competent jurisdiction to restrain or enjoin
the Employee from breaching such covenant.

12.               NON-COMPETITION

12.1              The Employee covenants and agrees that he will not, until that
day which is the earlier of: (i) one year from the expiry of the Term; and (ii)
the day the Vendors become entitled to terminate Chelsea's right of first
refusal provided in Section 7 of the Amendment and Restatement pursuant to
Section 7.4(h)(i) of the Escrow Agreement:

                  (a)   directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever,
alone or in association with any other person, firm or corporation (other than
the Company or Cool Entertainment), as a principal, agent, shareholder,
director, guarantor, creditor, or in any other relationship whatsoever, save and
except as an employee only, engage or be concerned or interested in any business
substantially similar to the business of Cool Entertainment and which may
compete with the business of Cool Entertainment at any time during that period
in any territory in which Cool Entertainment carries on its business;

                  (b)   directly or indirectly, use or disclose to any person,
except duly authorized officers and employees of the Company and Cool
Entertainment, any Confidential Information acquired by him by reason of his
involvement and association with the Company; or

                  (c)   directly or indirectly, solicit any customer of Cool

12.2              The parties recognize that irreparable damage would result
from any violation of the covenant in Section 12.1. It is therefore expressly
agreed that, in addition to any and all of the remedies available to the Company
and Cool Entertainment, they will each be entitled to the immediate remedy of
injunction or such other equitable relief as may be decreed or issued by any
court of competent jurisdiction to enforce Section 12.1 hereof.

12.3              The Employee acknowledges that the covenant in Section 12.1
hereof is given for good and valuable consideration (receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged), and that by reason of his unique knowledge of and his association
with the business of Cool Entertainment, the scope of such covenant as to time
and area is reasonable and commensurate with the protection of the legitimate
interests of Cool Management and Cool Entertainment. The covenant in
Section 12.1 shall survive termination of the Employees employment hereunder for
a period of one year, and such covenant is severable for that purpose. If any
part of such covenant is held to be unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, such part may be severed and replaced by

<PAGE>
                                     - 7 -

the widest term that would not be held to be void or unenforceable. The Employee
waives all defences to the strict enforcement of such covenant.

13.               ENTIRE  AGREEMENT

to the matters referred to herein and there are no representations or

that invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remainder which shall
continue in full force and effect and be construed as if this Agreement had been
executed without the invalid portion.

16.               AMENDMENTS

This Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing signed by the Parties.

                           Employee's duties hereunder and are not remedied by
                           the Employee within a reasonable period of time after
