of termination pursuant to this subparagraph.  In the event of a
termination under this subparagraph (B), Employee shall be paid the
same compensation at the same times that would be paid under this
Agreement through the effective date of Employee's termination.  In the
event of a termination pursuant to this subparagraph, the Annual Bonus

year within which said termination occurs, shall be pro-rated and paid
to Employee through the date of termination of Employee's daily
managerial responsibilities.

     (C)  Severance Pay.  Upon any termination pursuant to
paragraph 6(F) or 7(A) hereof, in addition to any compensation due
Employee pursuant to those paragraphs, Employee shall be paid the
compensation that he would have been paid under this Agreement for Two
(2) months after the date of termination.  Such compensation shall
include any Annual Bonus payable to Employee pursuant to paragraph 5(B)
hereof, for the fiscal year within which said termination occurs, which
Annual Bonus shall be pro-rated through the date of termination of
Employee's daily managerial responsibilities.  Employer shall also
provide Employee, at the Employer's expense, for a period of twelve
(12) month's beginning with the date of termination, with life
insurance, medical insurance, dental insurance and long-term disability
insurance that, taken as a whole, are substantially similar to the
benefits provided to Employee immediately prior to the date of termination.

     8.  Change of Ownership.  This Agreement shall terminate in the
event that the Employer or all or substantially all of Employer's
assets, and/or goodwill, or its stock are purchased in conjunction with
a corporate (stock or assets) sale, or merger. In such event, Employee
shall be entitled to his annual salary and Annual Bonus from the
effective date of such transaction, as well as the buyout provision
provided in Section 7(a), above, through the end of the term of this
Agreement or for a period of one (1) year, whichever such period is
longer, provided Employee is not offered a comparable position under
the same terms and conditions of this agreement with the acquiring
company or operation.  All such compensation and severance pay will be
paid within ninety (90) days of the effective date of the transaction.
In the event of such payment, Employer and Employee shall have no
further obligations under this Agreement except that Employer will pay
all premiums for health insurance policies then in effect for Employee,
through the end of such compensation period.

the time such costs or expenses are incurred by or imposed upon him) to
the full extent provided for in the Employer's Articles of
Incorporation or the laws of the State of Nevada, whichever is broader,

     7.  Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated pursuant to
the following:

     (A)  Voluntary Termination by either the Employee or the
Employer.  The Employee may voluntarily terminate this Agreement by
providing ninety (90) days written notice to Employer in the event of a
termination pursuant to this subparagraph.  All compensation hereunder
shall terminate as of the effective date of such termination.  The
Employer may voluntarily terminate this Agreement by providing ninety
(90) days written notice to the Employee "Written Notice".  For the
right to voluntarily terminate the Employee, the Employer must pay to
the Employee Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), payable
on the last day of the Written Notice. All options earned will remain
in force, and all Annual Bonus Cash and Annual Bonus Shares earned will

effective and pursuant to a pro-rata formula based upon the time that
had expired in that year prior to the effective date of the Written Notice.

     (B)  Involuntary Termination.  This Agreement may be
terminated by the Employer for "Just Cause", or as provided for in
paragraph 12.  For purposes of this Agreement, "Just Cause" shall mean:
Unappealable conviction by a trial court of a felony or crime involving
moral turpitude; declaration of unsound mind by court order; or the
failure to diligently apply himself to the duties required by Employer.
In the event the Employee is judged by Employer as failing to
diligently apply himself to the duties hereunder, Employer will provide
written notice to Employee specifying with particularity the conduct
constituting such failure and such steps as are necessary to warrant
the deficiency of performance.  Employee will be allowed thirty (30)
days from the date of such notice to attempt to correct the
deficiencies.  Upon the expiration of this cure period, Employer will
provide written notice to Employee of the adequacy or failure of
efforts made by Employee to correct the deficiencies.  The Employer
agrees to provide the Employee at least sixty (60) days written notice
of termination pursuant to this subparagraph.  In the event of a
termination under this subparagraph (B), Employee shall be paid the
same compensation at the same times that would be paid under this
Agreement through the effective date of Employee's termination.  In the
event of a termination pursuant to this subparagraph, the Annual Bonus
payable to Employee pursuant to paragraph 5(B) hereof, for the fiscal
year within which said termination occurs, shall be pro-rated and paid
to Employee through the date of termination of Employee's daily
managerial responsibilities.

     (C)  Severance Pay.  Upon any termination pursuant to
paragraph 6(F) or 7(A) hereof, in addition to any compensation due
Employee pursuant to those paragraphs, Employee shall be paid the
compensation that he would have been paid under this Agreement for Two
(2) months after the date of termination.  Such compensation shall
include any Annual Bonus payable to Employee pursuant to paragraph 5(B)
hereof, for the fiscal year within which said termination occurs, which
Annual Bonus shall be pro-rated through the date of termination of
Employee's daily managerial responsibilities.  Employer shall also
provide Employee, at the Employer's expense, for a period of twelve
(12) month's beginning with the date of termination, with life
insurance, medical insurance, dental insurance and long-term disability
insurance that, taken as a whole, are substantially similar to the
benefits provided to Employee immediately prior to the date of termination.

     8.  Change of Ownership.  This Agreement shall terminate in the
event that the Employer or all or substantially all of Employer's
assets, and/or goodwill, or its stock are purchased in conjunction with
a corporate (stock or assets) sale, or merger. In such event, Employee
shall be entitled to his annual salary and Annual Bonus from the
effective date of such transaction, as well as the buyout provision
provided in Section 7(a), above, through the end of the term of this
Agreement or for a period of one (1) year, whichever such period is
longer, provided Employee is not offered a comparable position under
the same terms and conditions of this agreement with the acquiring
company or operation.  All such compensation and severance pay will be
paid within ninety (90) days of the effective date of the transaction.
In the event of such payment, Employer and Employee shall have no
further obligations under this Agreement except that Employer will pay
all premiums for health insurance policies then in effect for Employee,
through the end of such compensation period.

     9.  Obligations on Termination.  In addition to the obligations
on the Employee set forth in paragraph 7 herein, upon termination of
employment for any reason, the Employee shall deliver to the Employer
all correspondence, letters, records, computer programs, data bases and
any and all other material pertaining to or containing information
relative to the business of the Employer or its affiliates which the
Employee has acquired during his association with Employer.

Employee (and his heirs, executor, and administrators) from all claims,
liabilities, judgments, settlements, costs and expenses, including all
attorneys' fees, imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him in
connection with or resulting from any action, suit, proceeding, or
claim to which he is or may be made a party by reason of his being or

the time such costs or expenses are incurred by or imposed upon him) to
the full extent provided for in the Employer's Articles of
Incorporation or the laws of the State of Nevada, whichever is broader,
as in effect on the date of execution hereof.  Such right of
