terminate except as expressly provided below.

<PAGE>   4

                           (A) Executive is convicted of, pleads guilty to or
pleads nolo contendere to a felony crime involving moral turpitude;

                           (B) Executive is found guilty of or pleads no contest
to fraud, conversion, embezzlement, falsifying records or reports or a similar
crime involving the Company's property;

                           (C) Executive willfully breaches this Agreement in a
material way, which breach remains uncured thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof shall have been sent to Executive;

                           (D) The voluntary resignation by Executive as an
employee of the Company (except pursuant to Section 7); or

                           (E) Insubordination or incompetence, as reasonably
determined by the Board after Executive has had the opportunity to address the
Board with respect to the matter.

         (b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6(a) above,
Executive's rights and the Company's obligations hereunder shall forthwith
terminate except as expressly provided below.

         (c) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) or (ii)
hereof, Executive or his estate shall be entitled to receive:

                  (i) A cash payment equal to Executive's Base Salary hereunder
for a three (3) month period, payable within thirty (30) days of the date of
such termination; and

                  (ii) All bonuses granted to Executive pursuant to Section 4(b)
above.

The Company may purchase insurance to cover all or any part of its obligations
set forth in this Section 6(c), and Executive agrees to take a physical
examination to facilitate the obtaining of such insurance. However, death and
disability benefits are not conditioned upon the Executive's insurability or the
Company's obtaining insurance.

         (d) Whenever compensation is payable to Executive hereunder during a
time when he is partially or totally disabled and such disability (except for
the provisions hereof) would entitle him to disability income or to salary
continuation payments from the Company according to the terms of any plan now or
hereafter provided by the Company or according to any Company policy in effect
at the time of such disability, the compensation payable to him hereunder shall
be inclusive of any disability income or salary continuation and shall not be in
addition thereto. If disability income is payable directly to Executive by an
insurance company under an insurance policy paid for by the Company, the amounts
paid to him by such insurance company shall be considered to be part of the
payments to be made by the Company to him pursuant to this Section, and shall
not be in addition thereto.

events:

         (a) Executive is not appointed or retained as Chief Technology Officer
of the Company;

         (b) The Board materially reduces Executive's duties and
responsibilities hereunder. Executive's duties and responsibilities shall not be
deemed materially reduced for purposes hereof solely by virtue of the fact that
the Company is (or substantially all of its assets are) sold to, or is combined
with, another entity provided Executive shall (i) continue to have the same
duties and responsibilities with respect to the Company's core business, and
(ii) report directly to the board of directors of the entity that acquires the
Company or its assets; or

         (c) The Company shall have notified Executive prior to June 30th in any
year during the Term that the Agreement shall not be extended.

8. Consequences of Breach by the Company.

thereon under Subtitle A of the Code and under applicable state law is equal to
(y) the excess of all Excess Parachute Payments (excluding payments under this
sentence) over income tax thereon under Subtitle A of the Code and under

and stature, in the event of termination by the Company hereunder (except under
Section 6(a)), or in the event of termination by Executive under Section 7
before the end of the Term, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the
provisions of this Agreement regarding further payments of
