non-competition restrictions contained herein are fair and reasonable as to

                  detailed in this Agreement by Corporation shall not constitute
                  a waiver of those rights or be considered a basis for
                  estoppel. Corporation may exercise its rights under this
                  Agreement despite any delay or failure to enforce those
                  rights.

         (i)      SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall, for
                  any reason, be held violative of any applicable law, and so
                  much of the Agreement is held to be unenforceable, then the
                  invalidity of such a specific provision of this Agreement
                  shall not be deemed to invalidate any other provisions of this
                  Agreement, which other provisions shall remain in full force
                  and effect unless removal of the invalid

                                       9

<PAGE>

                  provisions destroy the legitimate purposes of this Agreement,
                  in which event this Agreement shall be cancelled.

                  entire Agreement by and between the parties, except as

                  perform the duties of President of the Corporation, except
                  disability, for more than thirty (30) days after delivery of
                  written demand by the Corporation for performance which shall
                  specify the manner and means which the Corporation believes
                  that the Executive is not performing the duties of President,

the Executive upon the occurrence of any one of the following events:

         (a)      DISABILITY. In the event the Executive's health impairs the
                  performance of the duties of President and such is hazardous
                  to Executive's physical or mental health or life, provided a
                  written statement from a qualified physician is delivered to
                  the Board of Directors reasonably describing such impairment.

         (b)      GOOD CAUSE. (i) the Corporation or the Board of Directors

                  to vest the powers and authority of President, (iv) the Board
                  of Directors shall fail to comply with any material provision
                  of the Agreement which is not cured within ten (10) days of
                  delivery of written notice to the Board of Directors; or (v)
                  any purported termination by Corporation not in compliance
                  with the requirements of paragraph 8(e).

         10.      EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION UPON TERMINATION. The Corporation shall
pay the Executive upon the event of termination the compensation set forth
below:

         (a)      DEATH. The Corporation shall continue the salary for a period

                  and pay such in accordance with the payroll policies of the

                  period of six (6) months after this agreement is terminated

                  (ii) in lieu of further salary payments after the Date of
                  Termination, the Corporation shall pay as severance pay to
                  Executive, the greater of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or
                  an amount equal to two times the salary remaining unpaid under
                  the term of this agreement or two times the amount equal to
                  the annual salary in effect at the Date of Termination,
                  payable in one lump sum on or before five (5) business days
                  after the Date of Termination; and (iii) if the termination
                  arises out of a breach by the Company of this agreement, the
                  Corporation shall pay all other damages to which the Executive
                  may be entitled in law or equity resulting from such breach,
                  including damages for loss of benefits, legal expenses

<PAGE>

                  dividing the severance amount due by $1.00 which number of
                  shares when delivered shall be in full payment and
                  satisfaction of the Corporation's obligation to Executive.

                  employee benefits, plans and programs in which Executive was
                  entitled to participate and did participate immediately prior

                  Cause, the Corporation shall terminate all employee benefits,
                  plans and programs in which Executive was entitled to
                  participate and did participate immediately prior to the Date
                  of Termination.

         (f)      MITIGATION. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate

Executives' own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, engage in as
an employee or owner of any competitive business or organization located within
a 100 mile radius of the Counties of Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, Collin, Rockwall,

for Executives' own benefit or disclose to any person any information,
including confidential information, which is obtained or learned while acting

agreements contained in this paragraph on the part of Executive shall be
construed as an integral part of an enforceable agreement and the agreements
contained herein were made at the time this agreement was consummated by the
parties. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the non-competition
restrictions contained herein are fair and reasonable as to geographical
area, length of time and scope of activity restrained. The existence of any
claim or cause of action against Executive by the Corporation, whether
predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to
the enforcement by the Corporation of the agreements contained in this
paragraph.

                  notice of termination the person receiving such notice
                  notifies the other in writing that a dispute exists, the
                  Date of Termination shall be the date he dispute is finally

                  time limits shall be strictly construed and rigidly enforced.

         (e)      NO WAIVER. A failure or delay in the enforcement of the rights
                  detailed in this Agreement by Corporation shall not constitute
                  a waiver of those rights or be considered a basis for
                  estoppel. Corporation may exercise its rights under this
                  Agreement despite any delay or failure to enforce those
                  rights.

         (f)      DISPUTE OR CONTEST. In the unlikely event that a dispute
                  occurs or an action in law or equity arises out of the
                  operation, construction, or interpretation of this Agreement,
                  the prevailing party shall be entitled, in addition to any
                  other relief granted to reasonable expenses for attorneys'

         (i)      SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall, for
                  any reason, be held violative of any applicable law, and so
                  much of the Agreement is held to be unenforceable, then the
                  invalidity of such a specific provision of this Agreement
                  shall not be deemed to invalidate any other provisions of this
                  Agreement, which other

                                       9
<PAGE>

                  provisions shall remain in full force and effect unless
                  removal of the invalid provisions destroy the legitimate
                  purposes of this Agreement, in which event this Agreement
                  shall be cancelled.

         (j)      MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement represents the
                  entire Agreement by and between the parties, except as
