developments. Upon request the Employee shall deliver to the Company all CD
ROMS, floppy disks, hard drives or other computer storage devices, computers,
drawings, models or other data and records relating to such developments. In the
event any such developments shall be deemed by the Company to be patentable or

Company in obtaining any patents or copyrights thereon and execute all documents
and do all other things necessary or proper to obtain letters patent and
copyrights and to vest the Company with full title thereto.

     8. Non-competition. For purposes of this Section 8, all references to the
Company shall be deemed to include 4net Software and all of the Company's and
4net Software's affiliates and subsidiaries. The Employee will not utilize his
special knowledge of the business of the Company and his relationships with
customers, suppliers of the Company and others to compete with the Company.
During the Term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years after the
expiration or termination of this Agreement (provided, however, that in the
event that this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term, the
Employee shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 8 during the time
period that would have remained under the Term, plus a period of two (2) years
thereafter), the Employee shall not engage, directly or indirectly or have an
interest, directly or indirectly, in any geographic area where the Company at
that point in time does business or in which its products or services are
marketed, alone or in association with others, as principal, officer, agent,
employee, director, partner or stockholder (except with respect to his
employment by the Company), or through the investment of capital, lending of
money or property, rendering of services or otherwise, in any business
competitive with or substantially similar to that engaged in by the Company (it
being understood hereby, that the ownership by the Employee of two percent (2%)
or less of the stock of any company listed on a national securities exchange
shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 8). During the same period, the
Employee shall not, and shall not permit any of his employees, agents or others
under his control to, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or any other
person, (i) call upon, accept business from, or solicit the business of any
person who is, or who had been at any time during the preceding two (2) years, a
customer of the Company or any successor to the business of the Company, or
otherwise divert or attempt to divert any business from the Company or any such
successor, or (ii) directly or indirectly recruit or otherwise solicit or induce
any person who is an employee of, or otherwise engaged by, the Company or any
successor to the business of the Company to terminate his or her employment or
other relationship with the Company or such successor, or hire any person who
has left the employ of the Company or any such successor during the preceding
two (2) years. The Employee shall not

                                   Page 4 of 8
<PAGE>

at any time, directly or indirectly, use or purport to authorize any person to
use any name, mark, logo, trade dress or other identifying words or images which
are the same as or similar to those used at any time by the Company in
connection with any product or service, whether or not such use would be in a
business competitive with that of the Company.

     9. Remedies. The restrictions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 are considered
by the parties to be fair and reasonable. The Employee acknowledges that the
restrictions contained in Section 7 and 8 will not prevent him from earning a
livelihood. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company would be
irreparably harmed and that monetary damages would not provide an adequate
remedy in the event of a breach of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8.
Accordingly, the Employee agrees that, in addition to any other remedies
available to the Company, the Company (i) shall be entitled to specific
performance, injunction, and other equitable relief to secure the enforcement of
such provisions, (ii) shall not be required to post bond in connection with
seeking any such equitable remedies, and (iii) shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement from the Employee for all attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by
the Company in enforcing such provisions. If any provisions of Sections 7, 8, or
9 relating to the time period, scope of activities or geographic area of
restrictions is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the
maximum permissible time period, scope of activities or geographic area, the
maximum time period, scope of activities or geographic area, as the case may be,
shall be reduced to the maximum which such court deems enforceable. If any
provisions of Sections 7, 8, or 9 other than those described in the preceding
sentence are adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalid or
unenforceable provisions shall be deemed amended (with respect only to the
jurisdiction in which adjudication is made) in such manner as to render them
enforceable and to effectuate as nearly as possible the original intentions and
agreement of the parties.

     10. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the expiration
of the Term set forth in Section 2 upon the occurrence of any of the events set
forth in, and subject to the terms of, this Section 10.

     (a) Death. This Agreement will terminate immediately and automatically upon
the death of the Employee.

     (b) Disability. This Agreement may be terminated at the Company's option,
immediately upon notice to the Employee, if the Employee shall suffer a
permanent disability. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "permanent
disability" shall mean the Employee's inability to perform his duties under this
Agreement for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days due to illness, accident
or any other physical or mental incapacity, as determined by the Board of
Directors of the Company. In the event that a dispute arises with respect to the
disability of the Employee, the parties shall each select a duly licensed
medical doctor to make such a determination. If the two doctors so selected
cannot agree on a determination, they will mutually select a third duly licensed
medical doctor and the decision of the majority of the three doctors will be
binding.

     (c) Cause. This Agreement may be terminated at the Company's option,
immediately upon notice to the Employee, upon: (1) breach by the Employee of any
material provision of this Agreement; (2) breach by the Employee of any
fiduciary duty to the Company, or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries; (3)
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Employee in connection with the
performance of his duties under this Agreement; (4) Employee's failure to
perform (i) any of his duties or responsibilities required pursuant to this
Agreement, or (ii) any reasonable directive of the Chief Executive Officer or
Board of Directors of the Company; (5) fraud, criminal conduct, dishonesty or
embezzlement by the Employee; or (6) Employee's misappropriation for personal
use of any assets (having in excess of nominal value) or business opportunities
of the Company; provided that in any such case with respect to any such breach
that is capable of being cured, the Employee is afforded a ten (10)-day cure
period for such monetary breaches and a thirty (30)-day cure period for such
non-monetary breaches.

     (d) Termination by Employee. This Agreement may be terminated by Employee
prior to the expiration of the Term set forth in Section 2 upon three (3) months
written notice to the Company, which notice may not be given prior to nine (9)
months following the date hereof.

     (e) Effect of Termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant
to this Section 10, the Employee shall be entitled to his Compensation to the
date of termination as set forth in this Section 10, and after such date shall
not be entitled to any Compensation, benefits or other rights granted herein to
the Employee.

the same is sought to be enforced.

     (d) Waiver. Failure of a party to enforce one or more of the provisions of
this Agreement or to require at any time performance of any of the obligations
hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provisions by such party
nor to in any way affect the validity of this Agreement or such party's right
thereafter to enforce any provision of this Agreement, nor to preclude such
party from taking any other action at any time which it would legally be
entitled to take.

extent as though such other company were the Company; and provided, further,
