         1.       Exercise of Warrant.

                  1.1. Number of Shares  Issuable upon Exercise.  From and after
the date hereof  through and including the  Expiration  Date,  the holder hereof
shall  be  entitled  to  receive,  upon  exercise  of this  Warrant  in whole in
accordance  with the terms of subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in
part in accordance  with  subsection 1.3, shares of Common Stock of the Company,
subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.

                  1.2. Full  Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in full by

days of exercise to the Company at its principal  office or at the office of its
Warrant agent (as provided  hereinafter),  accompanied by payment, in cash or by
certified or official  bank check  payable to the order of the  Company,  in the
amount  obtained by  multiplying  the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price (as hereinafter  defined)

                  1.3. Partial  Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in part
(but not for a fractional  share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and
at the place  provided in subsection  1.2 except that the amount  payable by the
holder on such partial  exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a)
the  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  designated  by  the  holder  in  the
Subscription  Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial
exercise,  the Company,  at its expense,  will forthwith issue and deliver to or
upon the order of the holder hereof a new Warrant of like tenor,  in the name of
the  holder  hereof  or as such  holder  (upon  payment  by such  holder  of any
applicable transfer taxes) may request, the number of shares of Common Stock for
which such Warrant may still be exercised.

                  1.4. Fair Market Value. Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock as of a  particular  date (the  "Determination  Date")  for each  share of
Common Stock as of a Determination Date shall mean:

                       (a)  If  the  Company's  Common  Stock  is  traded  on an
exchange or is quoted on the National  Association of Securities  Dealers,  Inc.
Automated  Quotation  ("NASDAQ")  National  Market System or the NASDAQ SmallCap
Market, then the closing or last sale price, respectively, reported for the last
business day immediately preceding the Determination Date.

                       (b)  If the  Company's  Common  Stock is not traded on an
exchange or on the NASDAQ  National  Market System or the NASDAQ SmallCap Market
but is traded on the  over-the-counter  market, then the mean of the closing bid
and asked prices  reported for the last business day  immediately  preceding the
Determination Date.

                       (c)  Except as provided in clause (d) below, if the
Company's Common Stock is not publicly traded, then as the Holder and the
Company agree or in the absence of agreement by arbitration in accordance with

arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by education and
training to pass on the matter to be decided.

                       (d)  If  the   Determination   Date  is  the  date  of  a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company's charter, then

                                       2

<PAGE>

all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to
the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus
all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in
liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that
all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the
Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.

                  1.5. Company Acknowledgment.  The Company will, at the time of
the exercise of the Warrant,  upon the request of the holder hereof  acknowledge
in writing  its  continuing  obligation  to afford to such  holder any rights to
which  such  holder  shall  continue  to be  entitled  after  such  exercise  in
accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the holder shall fail to make
any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the
Company to afford to such holder any such rights.

                  1.6. Trustee for Warrant Holders.  In the event that a bank or
trust  company  shall  have been  appointed  as trustee  for the  holders of the
Warrants  pursuant to Subsection  3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all
the powers and duties of a warrant agent (as  hereinafter  described)  and shall
accept,  in its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person
as may be entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such
successor,  as the case may be, on  exercise  of this  Warrant  pursuant to this
Section 1.

         2.1  Delivery  of Stock  Certificates,  etc. on  Exercise.  The Company
agrees that the shares of Common Stock  purchased  upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be deemed to be issued to the holder  hereof as the  record  owner of such
shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant  shall have
been  surrendered  and  payment  made for such shares as  aforesaid.  As soon as
practicable  after the exercise of this  Warrant in full or in part,  and in any
event within seven (7) days thereafter, the Company, at its expense,  (including
the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes), will cause to be issued in the
name of and delivered to the holder  hereof,  or as such holder (upon payment by
such holder of any  applicable  transfer  taxes) may direct in  compliance  with
applicable Securities Laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly
and validly  issued,  fully paid and  nonassessable  shares of Common  Stock (or
Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus,
in lieu of any  fractional  share  to  which  such  holder  would  otherwise  be
entitled,  cash equal to such fraction  multiplied by the then Fair Market Value
of one full  share,  together  with any  other  stock  or other  securities  and
property  (including  cash,  where  applicable) to which such holder is entitled
upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.

                  2.2. Cashless Exercise.

                       (a)  Payment  may  be  made  either  in  (i)  cash  or by
certified or official  bank check or checks  payable to the order of the Company
equal to the applicable  aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by delivery of Warrants,
Common Stock and/or  Common Stock  receivable  upon  exercise of the Warrants in
accordance  with  Section  (b) below,  or (iii) by a  combination  of any of the
foregoing  methods,  for the number of Common Shares  specified in such form (as
such  exercise  number shall be adjusted to reflect any  adjustment in the total
number of shares of Common  Stock  issuable  to the holder per the terms of this
Warrant)  and the holder  shall  thereupon  be entitled to receive the number of
duly authorized,  validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein.

                       (b)  Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the
contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than
the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of
exercising this Warrant for cash the holder may elect to receive shares equal to
the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being
cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company
together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company
shall issue to the holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the
following formula:

                                       3

<PAGE>

                            X=Y (A-B)
                                 ---
                                   A
                            --------

                      Where X=   the  number of  shares  of  Common  Stock to be
                                 issued to the holder

                            Y=   the   number  of   shares   of   Common   Stock
                                 purchasable  under  the  Warrant  or, if only a
                                 portion of the Warrant is being exercised,  the
                                 portion of the Warrant being  exercised (at the
                                 date of such calculation)

                            A=   the  Fair  Market  Value  of one  share  of the
                                 Company's  Common  Stock  (at the  date of such
                                 calculation)

                            B=   Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such
                                 calculation)

                       (c)  The  Holder may not  employ  the  cashless  exercise
feature  described  above at any time that the  Warrant  Stock to be issued upon
exercise  is  included at the date of  exercise  for  unrestricted  resale in an
effective registration statement.

         3.       Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.

                  3.1.  Reorganization,  Consolidation,  Merger, etc. In case at
any time or from time to time,  the Company  shall (a) effect a  reorganization,
(b)  consolidate  with or merge into any other  person,  or (c)  transfer all or
substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan
or arrangement  contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such
case,  as a condition  to the  consummation  of such a  transaction,  proper and
adequate  provision  shall be made by the  Company  whereby  the  holder of this
Warrant,  on the exercise  hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the
consummation of such  reorganization,  consolidation  or merger or the effective
date of such  dissolution,  as the case may be,  shall  receive,  in lieu of the
Common  Stock (or Other  Securities)  issuable  on such  exercise  prior to such
consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property
(including  cash) to which  such  holder  would  have  been  entitled  upon such
consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such
holder had so exercised this Warrant,  immediately prior thereto, all subject to
further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.

                  3.2. Dissolution.  In the  event  of any  dissolution  of the
Company  following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or
assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution,  shall at its expense deliver or
cause to be delivered  the stock and other  securities  and property  (including
cash,  where  applicable)  receivable  by the holders of the Warrants  after the
effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust
company  having its principal  office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder
or holders of the Warrants.

                  3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization,
consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer)
referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and
effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other
securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the
consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective
date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall
be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in
the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of
the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have
expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the
event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the
consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such
event will the Company's securities and property (including cash, where
applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants be delivered to the
Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.

                                       4

<PAGE>

         4.  Extraordinary  Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the
Company shall (a) issue  additional  shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or
other  distribution on outstanding  Common Stock,  (b) subdivide its outstanding
shares of Common  Stock,  or (c)  combine its  outstanding  shares of the Common
Stock into a smaller  number of shares of the Common  Stock,  then, in each such
event,  the Purchase  Price  shall,  simultaneously  with the  happening of such
event,  be adjusted by multiplying  the then Purchase  Price by a fraction,  the
numerator  of which  shall be the number of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding
immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding  immediately  after such event,  and the
product so obtained shall  thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect.  The
Purchase Price, as so adjusted,  shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive  event or events described herein in this Section 4.
The  number of shares of Common  Stock  that the  holder of this  Warrant  shall
thereafter,  on the  exercise  hereof as  provided  in Section 1, be entitled to
receive shall be increased to a number  determined by multiplying  the number of
shares of Common  Stock that would  otherwise  (but for the  provisions  of this
Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator
is the  Purchase  Price that would  otherwise  (but for the  provisions  of this
Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect
on the date of such exercise.

         5.  Certificate  as to  Adjustments.  In each case of any adjustment or
readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the
exercise of the  Warrants,  the Company at its expense will  promptly  cause its
Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment
or  readjustment  in  accordance  with the terms of the  Warrant  and  prepare a
certificate  setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail
the facts upon which such  adjustment  or  readjustment  is based,  including  a
statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any
additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed
to have been issued or sold,  (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding,  and (c) the Purchase Price
and the number of shares of Common  Stock to be received  upon  exercise of this
Warrant,  in effect  immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as
adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant.  The Company will  forthwith
mail a copy of each  such  certificate  to the  holder  of the  Warrant  and any
Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).

         6.  Reservation  of  Stock,  etc.  Issuable  on  Exercise  of  Warrant;
Financial Statements.  The Company will at all times reserve and keep available,
solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants,  all shares of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of
the Warrant.  This Warrant  entitles the holder hereof to receive  copies of all
financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the
holders of the Company's Common Stock.

         7.  Assignment; Exchange of Warrant. Subject to compliance with
applicable Securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may
be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") with respect to
any or all of the Shares. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with
the Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the
"Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities
laws, the Company at its expense (but with payment by the Transferor of any
applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of the
Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the
Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement
Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces
thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces
of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.

         8.   Replacement  of  Warrant.   On  receipt  of  evidence   reasonably
satisfactory  to the Company of the loss,  theft,  destruction  or mutilation of
this Warrant  and, in the case of any such loss,  theft or  destruction  of this
Warrant,   on  delivery  of  an  indemnity   agreement  or  security  reasonably
satisfactory  in form and  amount  to the  Company  or,  in the case of any such
mutilation,  on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant,  the

                                       5

Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new

          failure or neglect by the  Employee to perform  his duties  hereunder,
          (ii) the  violation or attempted  violation of any  provision  hereof,
          (iii) the commission of any felony, including, without limitation, any
          fraud  against  the  Employer,  any  of  its  affiliates,  clients  or
          customers of the Employer.

6.   CONFIDENTIALITY.

     6.1. Employee acknowledges he will have access to operating,  financial and
          other information of Employer and customers of the Employer including,
          without limitation, procedures, business strategies, and prospects and
          opportunities,  techniques, methods and information about, or received
          by it, from its customers and that  divulgence will  irreparably  harm
          the Employer ("Confidential Information").  Employee also acknowledges
          that the foregoing provides Employer with a competitive  advantage (or
          that  could  be  used  to  the  disadvantage  of  the  Employer  by  a
          competitor).  Employee also  acknowledges the interest of the Employer
          in maintaining the  confidentiality  of such  information and Employee
          shall  not,  nor any  person  acting on behalf of  Employee,

<PAGE>

          divulge,  disclose or make known in any way or use for the  individual
          benefit of  Employee or others any of such  Confidential  Information.
          The foregoing is not applicable to such Confidential  Information that
          is established  by Employee to be in the public domain  otherwise than
          as a result of its  unauthorized  disclosure  by Employee or any other
          person.

     6.2. The customers of the Employer entrust the Employer with responsibility
          for their business in the expectation  that the Employer will hold all
          such  matters,  including  in some  cases the fact that they are doing
          business with the Employer and the specific transactions in which they
          are engaged,  in the strictest  confidence  ("Customer  Confidences").
          Employee  covenants that after the  termination of his employment with
          the  Employer,  he will hold all Customer  Confidences  in a fiduciary
          capacity  and will not  directly  or  indirectly  disclose or use such
          information.

     6.3. Employee  hereby  assigns to the Employer his entire right,  title and
          interest  in any  idea,  concept,  technique,  invention  and  related
          documentation,   other  works  of   authorship,   and  the  like  (all
          hereinafter  called  "Developments")  made,  conceived,   written,  or
          otherwise created solely by him or jointly with others, whether or not
          such Developments are patentable,  subject to copyright  protection or
          susceptible to any other form of protection which relate to the actual
          business or research or development of the Employer.  Employee,  after
          the termination of its employment  with Employer,  shall return to the
          Employer (and shall not retain any copies or excerpts  therefrom)  all
          documents,  notes,  analyses  or  compilations,  including  all copies
          thereof,  and all other property  relating to the Employer  ("Employer
          Documents")  including,  but not limited to,  documents  generated  by
          Employee pursuant to his relation with the Employer.

     6.4. Employee  acknowledges  that the Employer  has a  compelling  business
          interest in  preventing  unfair  competition  stemming from the use or
          disclosure of Customer Confidences and Confidential Information in the
          event that, after any termination on the post-employment activities of
          Employee,   Employee  goes  to  work  or  becomes  affiliated  with  a
          competitor of the Employer.

     6.5. Employee further  acknowledges that all customers he services or dealt
          with while  employed  with the Employer are  customers of the Employer
          and not Employee's  personally.  Employee also  acknowledges  that, by
          virtue of his  employment  with the  Employer,  Employee has gained or
          will gain knowledge of the identity,  characteristics  and preferences
          of the customers of the Employer,  and that Employee will not use such
          Customer Confidences and Confidential Information at any time.

7.   COVENANTS NOT TO COMPETE OR SOLICIT.

     7.1. The Employee undertakes that during the term of this Agreement and for
          24 months thereafter,  he will not, directly or indirectly (whether as
          sole proprietor, partner, stockholder,  director, officer, employee or
          in any  other  capacity  as  principal  or  agent)  compete  with,  or
          participate in any business that competes with, the Employer; provided
          that the Employee may invest in (i) the  securities of any business or

          enterprise)  which are listed on a  national  or  regional  securities

                  terminate his employment by the Employer; or

          7.2.2.  In any other  manner  interfere  with,  disrupt  or attempt to

                  Employee to any accounts,  customers or clients referred to in
                  this Section 7, or any other person.

     Employee shall return to the Employer all  documents,  including all copies
     thereof,  and all other property relating to the business or affairs of the
     Employer,   including,  without  limitation,   customer  lists,  agents  or
     representatives  lists,   commission  schedules  and  information  manuals,
     letters,  materials,  reports,  lists and records (all such  documents  and
     other  property  being   hereinafter   referred  to   collectively  as  the
     "Materials"),  in his possession or control, no matter from whom or in what
     manner he may have acquired such property.  The Employee  acknowledges  and
     agrees that all of the  Materials are property of the Employer and releases
     all claims of right of ownership thereto.

9.   ENFORCEMENT  OF  COVENANTS.  The  parties  acknowledge  and agree  that the
     covenants  contained in Sections 6, 7 and 8 are essential  elements of this
     Agreement and that,  but for the  agreements of the Employee to comply with
     such  covenants,  the Employer would not have entered into this  Agreement.
     The parties further  acknowledge and agree that a breach by the Employee of
     the  covenants  contained in Sections 6, 7 and 8 may result in  irreparable
     injury to the  Employer  for which there is no  adequate  remedy at law and
     that the  Employer  shall be  entitled to seek  enforcement  of the same by
     means of a temporary  restraining  order and/or a preliminary  or permanent
     injunction issued by any court having  jurisdiction  thereof.  In the event
     that the Employee breaches any of the covenants  contained in Sections 6, 7
     and 8, the Employer shall be entitled to an accounting and repayment of all
     profits,  Commissions and benefits the Employee receives in connection with
     such  breach.  The  Employee  agrees to  indemnify  and hold  harmless  the
     Employer  against  all  of  its  costs  and  expenses  (including,  without
     limitation,  reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) incurred in connection
     with the  enforcement  of the  covenants  contained in Sections 6, 7 and 8,
     except,  with  respect  to the  enforcement  of any  such  covenant  by the
     Employer,  to the extent that the Employer is the  prevailing  party in any
     action or proceeding commenced by the Employer in connection therewith. The
     covenants contained in Sections 6, 7 and 8 shall survive the termination of
     this  Agreement.  The  remedies  provided  in this  Section  9 shall  be in
     addition to, and not in lieu of, any other  remedies  and relief  including
     damages to which the Employer may be entitled.

10.  BLUE-PENCIL.  If any court of competent jurisdiction shall at any time deem
     the term of any of the covenants  and  undertakings  of the Employee  under
     Sections  6, 7 and 8 herein  too  lengthy,  the other  provisions  of those
     Sections 6, 7 and 8 shall  nevertheless  stand,  the period of  restriction
     shall be  deemed  to be the  longest  period  permissible  by law under the
     circumstances.   The  court  in  each  case  shall  reduce  the  period  of
     restriction to permissible duration.

11.  MUTUAL  INDEMNITIES.  THE COMPANY AND EMPLOYEE  JOINTLY  AGREE TO AND SHALL
     INDEMNIFY,  DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS The OTHER FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL
     CLAIMS,  LOSSES,  DAMAGES,  CAUSES OF ACTION, SUITS, AND LIABILITY OF EVERY
     KIND,  INCLUDING ALL EXPENSES OF  LITIGATION,  COURT COSTS,  AND ATTORNEYS'
     FEES, FOR INJURY TO OR DEATH OF ANY PERSON,  OR FOR DAMAGE TO ANY PROPERTY,
     ARISING OUT OF EITHER  NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT IN CONNECTION WITH THE WORK
     DONE BY EMPLOYEE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT;  PROVIDED THAT THIS  INDEMNIFICATION
     SHALL NOT APPLY IN THE EVENT OF ANY GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL

<PAGE>

     MISCONDUCT BY THE EMPLOYEE.

12.  TERM. This Agreement shall expire,  unless earlier  terminated,  on January
     25, 2003.  It will  automatically  renew  monthly  until either party gives
     notice not less than thirty (30) days of termination.

13.  ASSIGNMENT  OF CONTRACT.  The Employee may not assign his rights under this
     Agreement without the written consent of the Company.

14.  GOVERNING  LAW.  This  Agreement,  and the  rights and  obligations  of the
     parties  hereto,  shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
     laws of the State of New York without  regard to  principles of conflict of
     laws. Any disputes with respect to the  interpretation of this Agreement or
     the rights and  obligations  of the  parties  hereto  shall be  exclusively
     brought in any federal or state court of competent  jurisdiction located in
     the City of New York,  State of New York.  Each of the  parties  waives any
     right to object  to the  jurisdiction  or venue of such  courts or to claim
     that such courts are an inconvenient forum.

15.  ENTIRE  AGREEMENT   AMENDMENT.   This  Agreement   constitutes  the  entire
     Agreement,  representation  and  understanding  of the parties  hereto with
     respect to the subject  matter  hereof,  and no amendment  or  modification
     shall be valid or binding  unless made in writing and signed by the parties
     to this Agreement.  This Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements,
     either oral or written,  between the Company and  Employee  with respect to
     the subject matter hereof, and contains all of the covenants and agreements
     between the  parties  relating in any way to  Employee's  services  for the
     Company.

16.  NOTICES.  All  notices  or  other  communications   required  or  permitted
     hereunder  shall be in writing.  All notices or other required or permitted
     communications  shall be delivered  or sent,  as the case may be, by any of

17.  MODIFICATION AND WAIVER.  No change or modification of this Agreement shall
     be  valid  or  binding  upon the  parties  hereto  unless  such  change  or
     modification shall be in writing and signed by the Company and Employee. No
     course of dealing  between the Company and Employee,  nor any waiver by the
     Company  of a  breach  of any  provision  of this  Agreement,  or  delay in
     exercising any right under this Agreement, shall operate or be construed as
     a waiver of any subsequent breach by Employee.

18.  REMEDIES FOR BREACH.  Employee  recognizes and acknowledges that the remedy
     at law for a breach by Employee of any of the  covenants  contained in this
     Agreement  shall  be  inadequate.  Employee  agrees  that the  Company,  in
     addition to all other legal and equitable  remedies it may have, shall have
     the right to injunctive  relief to enforce the provisions of this Agreement
     if  there  is such a  breach  or  threatened  breach.  The  Company  hereby
     expressly  reserves  the right to offset any costs it incurs as a result of
     any breach of this  Agreement  by Employee  against any amounts  payable to
     Employee  hereunder and the right to terminate  this Agreement upon written
     notice for a breach of this Agreement by Employee.  Both parties shall have
     all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity for a breach or
     threatened breach of this Agreement.  Employee agrees that all sums payable
     to it under this  Agreement  shall be  available  to the Company to satisfy
     Employee's  breach of this  Agreement and to satisfy  Employee's  indemnity
     agreement set forth herein.  If any action at law or in equity is necessary
     to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement,  the prevailing  party
     shall be entitled to recover its reasonable  costs and attorneys' fees from
     the other party.

19.  REMOVAL OF ILLEGAL, INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE  PROVISIONS.  If any provision
     of this  Agreement is held to be illegal,  invalid or  unenforceable,  such
     provision may be removed.  Thereafter, the Agreement shall be considered to
     be legal,  valid or enforceable  provision as though the removed  provision
     had never  comprised a part of the Agreement.  The remaining  provisions of
     this  Agreement  shall  remain in full  force and  effect  and shall not be
     affected by the  illegal,  invalid or  unenforceable  provision or by their
     removal from this Agreement.

20.  NO  PARTNERSHIP  OR JOINT  VENTURE.  Nothing  in this  Agreement  is either
     intended and should not in any way be construed to create any form of joint
     venture, partnership or agency relationship of any kind between the Company
     and Employee.  The parties expressly  disclaim any intention of any kind to
     create any such relationship between themselves.

21.  TRAVEL POLICY. All travel arrangements must be consistent with the policies
     and practices adopted by the Board.
