     CONSULT YOUR PERSONAL TAX ADVISOR: SUBSTANTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL RESULT
FROM YOUR EXERCISE OF THIS STOCK OPTION

     CORONADO INDUSTRIES,  INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Corporation") hereby
grants to KAREN  TRASK (the  "Optionee"),  pursuant to the 2001  Employee  Stock
Option Plan of the  Corporation  (the "Plan")  which is  incorporated  herein by
reference, an option to purchase a total of TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND (25,000) Shares
as defined in the Plan (the "Option"),  on the terms and conditions set forth in
the Plan and  hereinafter.  This  Option  shall not be  exercisable  later  than
December 25, 2011 (herein referred to as the "Expiration Date").

     1.  VESTING.  Subject to the terms and  conditions of this  Agreement,  the
Shares  subject  to this  Option  shall be fully  vested and  exercisable  as of
December 26, 2002.

     2.  OPTION  PRICE.  The Option  price for the 25,000  Shares of this Option
shall be $.20 per share.

     3.  TERMINATION.  This option and all rights  hereunder  to the extent such
rights shall not have been exercised shall terminate and become null and void if
the Optionee ceases to be a employee of the Company or its subsidiaries (whether
by resignation,  retirement,  dismissal, death or otherwise), except that (a) in
the event of the death or  disability  of the Optionee  while an employee of the
Company,  this  option  only to the extent  exercisable  at the date of death or
disability  may be  exercised  within the  applicable  period of time and by the
persons  indicated  in Article  VI (6) of the Plan,  and (b) in the event of the
termination  of the  Optionee's  employment by the Company for any other reason,
this option only to the extent  exercisable at the date of such  termination may
be exercised  prior to the  expiration of three (3) months from the date of such
termination,  and shall terminate in all other respects; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
in no event may this option be exercised after the Expiration Date.

     4. EXERCISE.  This Option is exercisable  with respect to all, or from time
to time with respect to any portion, of the Shares described above which have at
that time become vested, by delivering  written notice of such exercise,  in the
<PAGE>
form  prescribed by the Board,  to the principal  office of the Secretary of the
Corporation.  Each such notice  shall be  accompanied  by payment in full of the
Option price of such Shares.

     5.  NON-TRANSFERABLE.  This Option shall during the Optionee's  lifetime be
exercisable  only by the  Optionee,  and  neither  this  Option  nor  any  right
thereunder  shall  be  transferable  except  by  will or  laws  of  descent  and
distribution,  or be subject to attachment,  execution or other similar process.
In the  event of any  attempt  by the  Optionee  to  alienate,  assign,  pledge,
hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Option or any right  thereunder,  except
as provided for herein, or in the event of the levy of any attachment, execution
or similar process upon the rights or interest hereby conferred, the Corporation
may  terminate  this  Option by notice to the  Optionee  and this  Option  shall
thereupon become null and void.

     6. LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. If the sale of the Shares purchased hereunder is not
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, but an exemption is available which
requires an investment or other representation, the Optionee shall represent and
agree at the time of exercise  that the Shares being  acquired  upon  exercising
this Option are being acquired for investment,  and not with view to the sale or
distribution  thereof,  and shall make such other  representations as are deemed
necessary or appropriate by the  Corporation and its counsel.  In addition,  the
Optionee  agrees that the  following  legend may be included on the  certificate
representing the Shares:

          The  shares  represented  hereby  have not been  registered  under the
United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and may not be sold, pledged,
or otherwise  transferred without an effective  registration  thereof under such
act or an opinion of counsel,  satisfactory to the company and its counsel, that
such registration is not required.

     7. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.

          (a) If the Corporation is merged or consolidated  into or with another
corporation (other than by a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is
the surviving  corporation) or the Corporation or the  Corporation's  assets are
purchased by another company in exchange for stock,  the Corporation  shall give
the  Optionee  written  notice  of  the  Corporation's  initial  or  preliminary
agreement to the transaction and the details of the transaction at least 60 days
prior to the closing of the transaction and an additional 30 days written notice
prior to the closing date of the transaction and each postponed  closing date of
the  transaction.  The then  exercisable but  unexercised  Shares granted in the
Option may be exercised by the Optionee at any time prior to the closing date of
the  transaction and such exercised  Shares shall then be deemed  outstanding at
the close of the transaction.
<PAGE>
     8. TAX CONSEQUENCES.

          This Stock Option is intended as an  "Incentive  Stock  Option"  under
Section 422A of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Substantial tax
consequences  are involved in the decision to exercise  this Option.  Therefore,
the  Optionee  should  consult  with  and seek  advice  from  his  personal  tax
consultant prior to exercising this Option.

     9. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Neither the granting of this Option nor the exercise thereof shall
be  construed  as  conferring  upon the  Optionee  any right to  continue in the
engagement of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, or as interfering with
or  restricting  in any way the  right  of the  Corporation  to  terminate  such
engagement at any time.

          (b)  Neither the  Optionee,  nor any person  entitled to exercise  his
rights in the event of his death,  shall have any of the rights of a stockholder
with respect to the Shares  subject to this  Option,  except after such date the
Optionee  or such person has been  issued the Shares by the  Corporation  or its
agent.

          (c)  The   Corporation   is  relieved   from  any  liability  for  the
non-issuance  or  non-transfer  or any delay in the  issuance or transfer of any
Shares  subject  to  this  Option  which  results  from  the  inability  of  the
Corporation to obtain,  or in any delay in obtaining,  from each regulatory body
having  jurisdiction all requisite  authority to issue or transfer Shares of the
Corporation in satisfaction of this Option if counsel for the Corporation  deems
such authority necessary for the lawful issuance or transfer of any such shares.

          (d) No Shares  acquired by  exercise  of this Option  shall be sold or
otherwise  disposed of in  violation of any federal or state  securities  law or
regulation in the Untied States.

          (e)  This  Option  shall  be  exercised   in   accordance   with  such
administrative  regulations  as the  Corporation's  Board  may from time to time
adopt. All decisions of the Board upon any legitimate question arising under the
Plan or under this Stock Option  Agreement  shall be conclusive and binding upon
the Optionee and all other persons, if determined in good faith.

day and year first written above.

     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made as of November 28, 2001, to
be effective as of October 1, 2001 (the "Effective  Date") by and between VODAVI
TECHNOLOGY,  INC.,  a Delaware  corporation  ("Employer")  and GREGORY K. ROEPER

     3. COMPENSATION AND OTHER BENEFITS.

          (a) SALARY.  Employer shall pay to Employee,  as compensation  for the
services rendered by Employee during Employee's employment under this Agreement,
a base  salary at a rate of (a)  $155,000  per annum for the  period  commencing
October 1, 2001 and ending December 31, 2001; and (b) $165,000 per annum for the
remainder of the term of this Agreement (the "Base Salary").  Employer shall pay
the Base Salary in accordance with the Company's established payroll procedures.

          (b) BONUS. In addition to the Base Salary,  Employee shall be eligible
to receive annual bonus compensation (the "Bonus") in an amount to be set by the
Compensation  Committee of the Company's Board of Directors,  at the committee's
sole and exclusive discretion.

          (c)  REIMBURSEMENT.  Employer shall reimburse  Employee for all travel

<PAGE>
          (d) FRINGE BENEFITS.  Employee shall be entitled to participate in any
group insurance, pension, retirement, vacation, expense reimbursement, and other
plans,  programs,  and  benefits  approved  by the Board of  Directors  and made
available from time to time to executive  employees of Employer generally during
the term of Employee's  employment  hereunder.  The foregoing shall not obligate
Employer to adopt or maintain any particular plan, program, or benefit.

     4. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT.

          (a) EMPLOYMENT TERM. The term of Employee's employment hereunder shall
commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until  September 30, 2002. The
term of Employee's employment hereunder shall automatically renew for successive
one-year  terms,  unless and until  terminated  by either party  giving  written
notice to the other not less than 30 days  prior to the end of the  then-current
term or as otherwise set forth in Section 4(b).

          (b) TERMINATION UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein contained:

               (i) DEATH.  Employee's  employment  and this  Agreement  shall be
automatically terminated,  without notice, effective upon the date of Employee's
death.

               (ii)  DISABILITY.  If  Employee  shall  fail  to  perform  any of
Employee's essential job duties under this Agreement as the result of illness or
other incapacity, with or without reasonable accommodation, for a period of more
than 12 consecutive weeks, or for more than 12 weeks within any 12-month period,
as determined by Employer for purposes of compliance with the Family and Medical
Leave Act, Employer may, at its option,  and upon notice to Employee,  terminate
Employee's employment and this Agreement effective on the date of that notice.

               (iii)  UNILATERAL  DECISION  OF  EMPLOYER.  Employer  may, at its
option,  upon  notice to  Employee,  terminate  Employee's  employment  and this
Agreement  effective  on the date of that  notice.  A  reduction  in  Employee's
responsibilities,  as such  responsibilities  are described in Section 1 of this
Agreement,  by  Employer  shall  constitute  a  termination  under this  Section
4(b)(iii).

               (iv) UNILATERAL DECISION BY EMPLOYEE. Employee may, at his option
and upon notice to Employer,  terminate Employee's employment and this Agreement
effective on the date of that notice.

               (v) TERMINATION  "FOR CAUSE".  Employer may terminate  Employee's
employment  and this  Agreement,  and the rights and  obligations of the parties
hereunder  at any  time,  effective  upon  written  notice to  Employee,  if the
termination  of  Employee's  employment  is "for  cause."  For  purposes of this
Section 4(b)(v), "for cause" shall mean discharge resulting from a determination
by  Employer  that  Employee  (A)  has  been  convicted  of a  felony  involving
dishonesty, fraud, theft, or embezzlement, (B) has performed an act or failed to
act,  which if he were  prosecuted and  convicted,  would  constitute a crime or
offense  involving  money or property of Employer,  or which would  constitute a
felony  in any  jurisdiction  involved,  (C) has  violated  Employer's  policies
prohibiting  sexual harassment or

                                       2
<PAGE>
discrimination  or harassment or  discrimination  of any other  protected  basis
under  federal,  state,  or local law,  or (D) has  willfully  and  persistently
breached or violated any of the provisions of this Agreement, and such breach or
violation shall have continued for a period of 10 days after Employer shall have
given  Employee  written  notice  specifying  the nature  thereof in  reasonable
detail.

               (vi) CHANGE OF  CONTROL.  In the event of a Change of Control (as
defined  below),  Employer or Employee  may, at their  respective  option,  upon
notice to the other,  terminate  Employee's  employment  by providing  the other
party with 30 days'  written  notice after the  effective  date of the Change of
Control. For the purposes of this Agreement,  the term "Change of Control" shall
mean

                    (1) the  approval  by a  majority  of  Employer's  Board  of
Directors  of (A) any  merger  or  consolidation  in which  Employer  is not the
surviving  entity;  (B) any reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving
entity; or (C) any transaction involving the sale of all or substantially all of
Employer's  assets to any person other than a wholly or majority owned direct or
indirect subsidiary of Employer; or

                    (2) Individuals  who, as of the Effective  Date,  constitute
the Board of  Directors  of the Company (the  "Incumbent  Board")  cease for any
reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board,  provided that any person
becoming  a  director  subsequent  to the  Effective  Date  whose  election,  or
nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of
at least a majority of the directors then  comprising the Incumbent Board (other
than an election or  nomination of an  individual  whose  initial  assumption of
office is in connection with an actual or threatened  election  contest relating
to the election of the directors of the Company)  shall be, for purposes of this
Agreement,  considered  as though  such  person  were a member of the  Incumbent
Board.

          (c)  RESULT  OF  TERMINATION.  In  the  event  of the  termination  of
Employee's  employment pursuant to Sections 4(b)(i) (iv) or (v) above,  Employee
shall receive no further compensation under this Agreement and all of Employee's
unvested  Options  shall  be  cancelled.  In the  event  of the  termination  of
Employee's employment pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) or (iii) above,

               (i)  Employee  shall  continue  to  receive  his Base  Salary and
benefits for the remaining term of this Agreement. Such payments will be payable
in one lump-sum amount within 10 days of the event of termination;

               (ii)  Employee's  vested  options  as of the date of  termination
shall remain  outstanding  through the 90-day period  following the then-current
term of this  Agreement.  All of Employee's  unvested  options as of the date of
termination shall be cancelled; and

               (iii)  Employer  shall  forgive  any  balance  owed  by  Employee
pursuant to Employer's funding of Employee's Group Life Insurance policy.

          (d) RESULT OF CHANGE OF CONTROL. As incentive for Employee to actively
pursue the best interests of Employer's  stockholders,  in the event of a Change
of Control

                                       3
<PAGE>
(as that term is  defined  in  Section  4(b)(vi)  of this  Agreement),  then (i)
Employee shall earn a minimum bonus of $100,000, which shall be paid in one lump
sum payment  within ten business days from the  effective  date of the Change of
Control  in the  event of a Change  of  Control,  and (ii) any  options  held by
Employee that remain  unvested as of the effective date of the Change of Control
shall  become  fully  vested  and  exercisable  as of such  effective  date.  In
addition,  in the event of the termination of Employee's  employment pursuant to
Section 4(b)(vi) above Employee shall continue to receive the greater of (A) his
Base Salary and  benefits  for the  remaining  period of this  Agreement  or (B)
$165,000. Such payments will be payable in one lump-sum amount within 10 days of
the event of termination.

     5. COMPETITION AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

          (a)  INTERESTS  TO BE  PROTECTED.  For purposes of this Section 5, the
term "Employer" shall include Vodavi  Technology,  Inc. and any entity that is a
direct or indirect subsidiary of Vodavi Technology, Inc. during the term of this
Agreement. The parties acknowledge that Employee will perform essential services
for Employer during the term of Employee's  employment  with Employer.  Employee
will be exposed to, have access to, and be required to work with a  considerable
amount  of  Confidential  Information  (as  defined  below).  The  parties  also
expressly  recognize  and  acknowledge  that the personnel of Employer have been
trained by and are valuable to Employer and that Employer will incur substantial
expense in  recruiting  and training  personnel if it must hire new personnel or
retrain  existing  personnel  to fill  vacancies.  The  parties  also  expressly
recognize that it could seriously  impair the goodwill and diminish the value of
Employer's  business  should  Employee  compete  with  Employer  in  any  manner
whatsoever. The parties acknowledge that this covenant has an extended duration;
however,  they agree that this covenant is  reasonable,  and it is necessary for
the protection of Employer, its stockholders, and employees. For these and other
reasons,  and the fact  that  there  are  many  other  employment  opportunities
available to Employee if his employment with Employer is terminated, the parties
are in full and complete agreement that the following  restrictive covenants are
fair and  reasonable  and are entered into freely,  voluntarily,  and knowingly.
Furthermore,  each party was given the  opportunity to consult with  independent
legal counsel before entering into this Agreement.

          (b)  NON-COMPETITION.  During the term of Employee's  employment  with
Employer and for the period ending 12 months after the termination of Employee's
employment with Employer,  regardless of the reason therefor, Employee shall not
(whether  directly  or  indirectly,  as owner,  principal,  agent,  stockholder,
director,  officer, manager,  employee,  partner,  participant,  or in any other
capacity) engage in or become financially interested in any competitive business
conducted  within the Restricted  Territory (as defined below).  As used herein,
the term "competitive business" shall mean any business that designs,  develops,
markets, or supports commercial telephone systems,  commercial grade telephones,
voice processing systems  (including,  but not limited to, automated  attendant,
voice  mail or fax mail,  or  interactive  voice  response),  computer-telephony
integration  products,  and related  computer  software  products;  and the term
"Restricted  Territory"  shall  mean  any area in which  Employer  conducts  its
business during Employee's employment hereunder.

          (c)  NON-SOLICITATION  OF  EMPLOYEES.  During  the term of  Employee's
employment  and for a period of 12 months after the  termination  of  Employee's
employment with

                                       4
<PAGE>
Employer,  regardless  of the reason  therefor,  Employee  shall not directly or
indirectly,  for himself,  or on behalf of, or in  conjunction  with,  any other
person, company, partnership, corporation, or other entity, seek to hire or hire
any of Employer's  personnel or  employees,  with the exception of his Executive
Assistant,  for the purpose of having such employee  engage in services that are
the same,  similar,  or related to the services that such employee  provided for
Employer.

          (d)  CONFIDENTIAL  INFORMATION.  Employee  shall  maintain  in  strict
secrecy all confidential or trade secret information, whether patentable or not,
relating to the business of Employer (the "Confidential  Information")  obtained
by Employee in the course of  Employee's  employment,  and  Employee  shall not,
unless  first  authorized  in  writing  by  Employer,  disclose  to,  or use for
Employee's benefit or for the benefit of any person, firm, or entity at any time
either  during  or  subsequent  to  the  term  of  Employee's  employment,   any
Confidential  Information,  except as required in the  performance of Employee's
duties on behalf of Employer.  For  purposes  hereof,  Confidential  Information
shall  include  without  limitation  any  technical  plans and drawings or other
reproductions  or materials of any kind; any financial  information with respect
to Employer or its business; any trade secrets,  knowledge,  or information with
respect to products,  processes,  inventions,  formulae, software, source codes,
object codes,  algorithms,  and services  provided;  any  operating  procedures,
techniques, or know-how; any business methods or forms; any names, addresses, or
data on suppliers or customers;  and any business  policies or other information
relating to or dealing with the purchasing, sales, advertising,  promotional, or
distribution policies or practices of Employer.

          (e) RETURN OF BOOKS AND PAPERS.  Upon the  termination  of  Employee's
employment  with Employer for any reason,  Employee  shall  deliver  promptly to
Employer all samples or demonstration models,  catalogues,  manuals,  memoranda,
drawings,  software,  source or object code, formulae,  and specifications,  and
operating procedures;  all cost, pricing, and other financial data; all supplier
and customer  information;  all other written or printed  materials that are the
property of Employer (and any copies of them); and all other materials which may
contain  Confidential  Information  relating to the business of Employer,  which
Employee may then have in his possession whether prepared by Employee or not.

          (f) DISCLOSURE OF  INFORMATION.  Employee  shall disclose  promptly to
Employer,  or  its  nominee,  any  and  all  ideas,  designs,   processes,   and
improvements  of  any  kind  relating  to  the  business  of  Employer,  whether
patentable or not,  conceived or made by Employee,  either alone or jointly with
others,  during  working  hours  or  otherwise,  during  the  entire  period  of
Employee's employment with Employer, or within six months thereafter.

          (g) ASSIGNMENT. Employee hereby assigns to Employer or its nominee the
entire right,  title,  and interest in and to all inventions,  discoveries,  and
improvements,  whether  patentable  or not,  that  Employee may conceive or make
during Employee's employment with Employer, or within six months thereafter, and
which  relate  to the  business  of  Employer.  Whenever  requested  to do so by
Employer,  whether  during the period of Employee's  employment  or  thereafter,
Employee  shall  execute  any  and  all  applications,  assignments,  and  other
instruments  that Employer  shall deem  necessary or  appropriate  to apply for,
obtain,  or  maintain  Letters  Patent of the  United  States or of any  foreign
country, or to protect otherwise the interest of Employer therein.

                                       5
<PAGE>
          (h)  EQUITABLE  RELIEF.  In  the  event  a  violation  of  any  of the
restrictions  contained  in this  Section  is  established,  Employer  shall  be
entitled to preliminary and permanent  injunctive  relief as well as damages and
an equitable  accounting of all earnings,  profits,  and other benefits  arising
from such  violation,  which  right shall be  cumulative  and in addition to any
other rights or remedies to which  Employer  may be entitled.  In the event of a
violation  of any  provision  of  Sections  5(b),  5(c),  5(f),  or 5(g) of this
Agreement, the period for which those provisions would remain in effect shall be
extended for a period of time equal to that period beginning when such violation
commenced and ending when the activities  constituting such violation shall have
been finally terminated in good faith.

          (i)  RESTRICTIONS  SEPARABLE.  If the scope of any  provision  of this
Section 5 is found by a Court to be too broad to permit  enforcement to its full
extent, then such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by
law. The parties  agree that the scope of any provision of this Section 5 may be
modified by a judge in any  proceeding to enforce this  Agreement,  so that such
provision can be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. Each and every
restriction  set forth in this Section 5 is  independent  and severable from the
others, and no such restriction shall be rendered unenforceable by virtue of the
fact that, for any reason,  any other or others of them may be  unenforceable in
whole or in part.

          (j)  SURVIVAL.  Employer and Employee  acknowledge  and agree that the
obligations and rights set forth in this Section 5 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and Employee's employment by either Employer or Employee under
Section 4 of this Agreement.

     6. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) NOTICES. All notices, requests,  demands, and other communications

                        6249 N. 78th Street, Unit 21

Either party may alter the address to which  communications  or copies are to be
sent by  giving  notice  of such  change  of  address  in  conformity  with  the
provisions of this paragraph for the giving of notice.

          (b)  INDULGENCES;  WAIVERS.  Neither  any failure nor any delay on the
part of either party to exercise any right,  remedy,  power,  or privilege under
this  Agreement  shall  operate  as a waiver  thereof,  nor shall any  single or
partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege preclude any other or
further exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege,
nor shall any waiver of any right,  remedy,  power, or privilege with respect to
any  occurrence  be  construed  as a waiver of such  right,  remedy,  power,  or
privilege  with  respect  to any other  occurrence.  No waiver  shall be binding
unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.

          (c) CONTROLLING LAW. This Agreement and all questions  relating to its
validity, interpretation,  performance and enforcement, shall be governed by and
construed in accordance  with the laws of the state of Arizona,  notwithstanding
any Arizona or other conflict-of-interest provisions to the contrary.

          (d)  BINDING  NATURE  OF  AGREEMENT;   SUCCESSORS  AND  ASSIGNS.  This
Agreement  shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties  hereto
and their respective heirs, personal representatives,  successors,  and assigns;
provided  that  because  the  obligations  of  Employee  hereunder  involve  the
performance of personal  services,  such  obligations  shall not be delegated by
Employee. For purposes of this Agreement,  successors and assigns shall include,
but not be limited to, any individual, corporation, trust, partnership, or other
entity  that  acquires a majority  of the stock or assets of  Employer  by sale,
merger,  consolidation,  liquidation,  or other form of transfer.  Employer will
require  any  successor  (whether  direct  or  indirect,  by  purchase,  merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or  substantially  all of the business and/or
assets of Employer to expressly  assume and agree to perform  this  Agreement in
the same  manner and to the same  extent  that  Employer  would be  required  to
perform it if no such succession had taken place.

          (e) EXECUTION IN  COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in any
number of  counterparts,  each of which  shall be deemed  to be an  original  as
against any party

                                       7

whose signature appears thereon,  and all of which shall together constitute one
and the same  instrument.  This Agreement  shall become binding when one or more
counterparts hereof,  individually or taken together,  shall bear the signatures
of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories.

          (f)  PROVISIONS  SEPARABLE.  The  provisions  of  this  Agreement  are
independent of and separable from each other, and no provision shall be affected
or rendered  invalid or  unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason
any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

          (g) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and
understanding  between the parties  hereto  with  respect to the subject  matter
hereof   and   supersedes   all  prior  and   contemporaneous   agreements   and
understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written,
except as herein  contained.  The express terms hereof control and supersede any
course of  performance  and/or usage of the trade  inconsistent  with any of the
terms  hereof.  This  Agreement  may not be modified or amended other than by an
agreement in writing.

          (h) PARAGRAPH  HEADINGS.  The paragraph headings in this Agreement are
for  convenience  only; they form no part of this Agreement and shall not affect
its interpretation.

          (i) NUMBER OF DAYS.  In  computing  the number of days for purposes of
this Agreement,  all days shall be counted,  including  Saturdays,  Sundays, and
holidays; provided, however, that if the final day of any time period falls on a
Saturday,  Sunday, or holiday, then the final day shall be deemed to be the next
day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday.
