                                    RECITALS

         The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or a committee
appointed by the Board (the "Committee") has decided to make a stock option
grant as an inducement for the Grantee to promote the best interest of the
Company and its stockholders and for the Grantee's participation as a member of
the Board.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally
bound hereby, agree as follows:

3.        Term of Option.

          A.  The Option shall have a term of ten years from the Date of
          Grant and shall terminate at the expiration of that period (February
          22, 2010), unless it is terminated at an earlier date pursuant to the
          provisions of this Agreement.

          B.  The Option shall automatically terminate upon the happening of the
          first of the following events:

              1. The expiration of the 90 day period after the Grantee ceases to
          serve on the Board, if the termination is for any reason other than
          disability (as defined in the Company's Amended and Restated 1997
          Equity Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), death or cause (as defined in
          the Plan); or

              2. The expiration of the one year period after the Grantee ceases
          to serve on the Board, on account of the Grantee's disability (as
          defined in the Plan) or death.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised
          after the date that is ten years from the Date of Grant. Any portion
          of the Option that is not vested at the time the Grantee ceases to
          serve on the Board, shall immediately terminate.

4.        Exercise Procedures.

          A.  Subject to the vesting provision of Paragraph 2 above, the Grantee
          may exercise part or all of the vested Option by giving the Committee
          written notice of intent to exercise in the manner provided in
          Paragraph B below, specifying the number of Shares as to which the
          Option is to be exercised. On the delivery date, the Grantee shall pay
          the exercise price (i) in cash, (ii) with the approval of the
          Committee, by delivering Shares of the Company which shall be valued
          at their fair market value on the date of delivery, (iii) by such
          other method as the committee may approve, including payment through a
          broker in accordance with procedures permitted by Regulation T of the
          Federal Reserve Board, or (iv) by any combination of the foregoing.
          The Committee may impose from time to time such limitations as it
          deems appropriate on the use of Shares of the Company to exercise the
          Option.

          B.  The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares upon exercise of
          the Option shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and
          regulations and such approvals by governmental agencies as may be
          deemed appropriate by the Committee, including such actions as Company
          counsel shall deem necessary or appropriate to comply with relevant
          securities laws and regulations. The Company may require that the
          Grantee (or other person exercising the Option after the Grantee's
          death) represent that the Grantee is purchasing Shares for the
          Grantee's own account and not with a view to use for sale in
          connection with any distribution of the Shares, or such other
          representation as the Committee deems appropriate. All obligations of
          the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the rights of the
          Company as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to be
          withheld for any taxes, if applicable.

               1. Change of Control. The provisions of the Plan applicable to a
          Change of Control shall apply to the Option, and, in the event of a
          Change of Control, the Committee may take such actions as it deems
          appropriate pursuant to the Plan.

               2. Stockholder's Agreement. As a condition of receiving this
          Option, the Grantee hereby agrees that, if requested by the Company,
          the Grantee (or other person exercising the Option after the Grantee's
          death) will execute a stockholder's agreement, on such terms as may be
          approved by the Company, with respect to all shares issued upon the
          exercise of the Option.

               3. Restrictions on Exercise. Only the Grantee may exercise the
          Option during the Grantee's lifetime. After the Grantee's death, the
          Option shall be exercisable (subject to the limitations specified in
          the Plan) solely by the legal representatives of the Grantee, or by
          the person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by will or by
          the laws of descent and distribution, to the extent that the Option is
          exercisable pursuant to this Agreement.

               4. Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is not made
          pursuant to the Plan, however the terms of the Plan are incorporated
          herein by reference. The Committee shall have the authority to
          interpret and construe the Option pursuant to the terms of the Plan,
          and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising
          hereunder.

               5. No Employment Rights. The grant of the Option shall not confer
          upon the Grantee any right to be retained by or in the employ of the
          Company and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the
          Company to terminate the Grantee's service at any time. The right of
          the Company to terminate at will the Grantee's service at any time for
          any reason is specifically reserved.

               6. No Stockholder Rights. Neither the Grantee, nor any person
          entitled to exercise the Grantee's rights in the event of the
          Grantee's death, shall have any of the rights and privileges of a
          stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to the Option, until
          certificates for Shares have been issued upon the exercise of the
          Option.

               7. Assignment and Transfers. The rights and interests of the
          Grantee under this Agreement may not be sold, assigned, encumbered or
          otherwise transferred except, in the event of the death of the
          Grantee, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the
          event of any attempt by the Grantee to alienate, assign, pledge,
          hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the Option or any right
          hereunder, except as provided for in this Agreement, or in the event
          of the levy or any attachment, execution or similar process upon the
          rights or interests hereby conferred, the Company may terminate the
          Option by notice to the Grantee, and the Option and all rights
          hereunder shall thereupon become null and void. The rights and
          protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or
          assigns of the Company and to the Company's parents, subsidiaries and
          affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the
          Grantee's consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee
          serves as the representative or

                                       3

          designee of a stockholder of the Company which has the right, either
          pursuant to contract or the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, to
          specifically designate or elect a director, then the Grantee may
          assign his rights and interests under this Agreement to such
          stockholder.

               8. Applicable Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and
          effect of this instrument shall be governed by and determined in
          accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

               9. Notice. Any notice to the Company provided for in this
          Instrument shall be addressed to the Company in care of the President
          at 1009 Commerce Park Drive, Oak Ridge, Tennessee 37830, and any
          notice to the Grantee shall be addressed to such address as the
          Grantee may designate to the Company in writing. Any notice shall be
          delivered by hand, sent by telecopy or enclosed in a properly sealed
          envelope addressed as stated above, registered and deposited, postage
          prepaid, in a post office regularly maintained by the United States
          Postal Service.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its duly authorized
officers to execute and attest this Agreement, and the Grantee has executed
this Agreement, effective as of the Date of Grant.

         In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter
set forth, the Company and the Executive do hereby agree as follows:

         1.       EMPLOYMENT.

                  (a)      The Company hereby employs the Executive and the
Executive hereby agrees to serve the Company on the terms and conditions set
forth herein.

                  (b)      The employment term shall commence on July 1, 1999
and shall continue in effect until terminated in accordance with Section 5 or
any other provision of the Agreement.

         2.       POSITION AND DUTIES.

         The Executive shall serve as an Officer of the Company and shall
perform such duties and responsibilities as may from time to time be prescribed
by the Company's board of directors (the "Board"), provided that such duties
and responsibilities are consistent with the Executive's position. The
Executive shall perform and discharge faithfully, diligently and to the best of
his/her ability such duties and responsibilities and shall devote all of
his/her working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company and
its affiliates.

         3.       COMPENSATION.

                  (a)      BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay to the Executive
an annual base salary ("Base Salary") of Three Hundred Three Thousand Six
Hundred Dollars ($303,600), payable in equal semi-monthly installments
throughout the term of such employment subject to Section 5 hereof and subject
to applicable tax and payroll deductions. The Company shall consider increases
in the Executive's Base Salary annually, and any such increase in salary
implemented by the Company shall become the Executive's Base Salary for
purposes of this Agreement.

                  (b)      INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. Provided Executive has duly
performed his/her obligations pursuant to this Agreement, the Executive shall
be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under the Management
Incentive Compensation Plan implemented by the Company.

<PAGE>   2

                  (c)      OTHER BENEFITS. During the term of this Agreement,
the Executive shall be entitled to participate in the long term incentive plan
implemented by the Company and any employee benefit plans and arrangements
which are available to senior executive officers of the Company, including,
without limitation, group health and life insurance, split dollar life
insurance, pension and savings and the Senior Management Employment Policy.

                  (d)      FRINGE BENEFITS. The Company shall pay or reimburse
Executive for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by him/her in
connection with his/her duties hereunder, upon submission by Executive to the
Company of such written evidence of such expense as the Company may require.
Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Company will provide Executive with
the use of a vehicle for purposes within the scope of his/her employment and
shall pay all expenses for fuel, maintenance and insurance in connection with
such use of the automobile. The Company further agrees that Executive shall be
entitled to four (4) weeks of vacation in any year of the term of employment
hereunder. Nothing paid to the Executive under any such Company plans or
arrangements shall be deemed to be in lieu of compensation to the Executive
hereunder.

         4.       NON-DISCLOSURE, NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION
                  COVENANTS.

                  (a)      ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. The Executive acknowledges that as
an Executive Officer of the Company (i) he/she frequently will be exposed to
certain "Trade Secrets" and "Confidential Information" of the Company (as those
terms are defined in Subsection 4(b)), (ii) his/her responsibilities on behalf
of the Company will extend to all geographical areas where the Company is doing
business, and (iii) any competitive activity on his/her part during the term of
his employment and for a reasonable period thereafter would necessarily involve
his/her use of the Company's Trade Secrets and Confidential Information and,
therefore, would unfairly threaten the Company's legitimate business interests,
including its substantial investment in the proprietary aspects of its business
and the goodwill associated with its customer base. Moreover, the Executive
acknowledges that, in the event of the termination of his/her employment with
the Company, he/she would have sufficient skills to find alternative,
commensurate work in his/her field of expertise that would not involve a
violation of any of the provisions of this Section 4. Therefore, the Executive
acknowledges and agrees that it is reasonable for the Company to require
him/her to abide by the covenants set forth in this Section 4. The parties
acknowledge and agree that if the nature of the Executive's responsibilities
for or on behalf of the Company and the geographical areas in which the
Executive must fulfill them materially change, the parties will execute
appropriate amendments to the scope of the covenants in this Section 4.

                  (b)      DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Section 4, the
following terms shall have the following meanings:

                           (i)      "COMPETITIVE POSITION" shall mean (i) the
Executive's

one percent (1%) or control of all or any portion of a Competitor, or (ii) any
employment, consulting partnership, advisory, directorship, agency, promotional
or independent contractor arrangement between the Executive and any Competitor
whereby the Executive is required to perform executive level services
substantially similar to those that he will perform for the Company as an
Executive Officer.

                           (ii)     "COMPETITOR" of the Company shall refer to
any person or entity engaged, wholly or partly, in the business of
manufacturing and distributing farm equipment machinery and replacement parts.

                           (iii)    "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" shall mean the
proprietary and confidential data or information of the Company, other than
"Trade Secrets" (as defined below), which is of tangible or intangible value to
the Company and is not public information or is not generally known or
available to the Company's competitors.

                           (iv)     "TRADE SECRETS" shall mean information of
the Company, including, but not limited to, technical or non-technical data,
formulas, patterns, compilations, programs, devices, methods, techniques,
drawings, processes, financial data, financial plans, products plans, or lists
of actual or potential customers or suppliers, which: (a) derives economic
value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being
readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic
value from its disclosure or use; and (b) is the subject of efforts that are
reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.

                           (v)      "WORK PRODUCT" shall mean all work product,
property, data, documentation, "know-how", concepts or plans, inventions,
improvements, techniques, processes or information of any kind, relating to the
Company and its business prepared, conceived, discovered, developed or created
by the Executive for the Company or any of the Company's customers.

                  (c)      NONDISCLOSURE; OWNERSHIP OR PROPRIETARY PROPERTY.

                           (i)      The Executive hereby covenants and agrees
that: (i) with regard to information constituting a Trade Secret, at all times
during the Executive's employment with the Company and all times thereafter
during which such information continues to constitute a Trade Secret; and (ii)
with regard to any Confidential Information, at all times during the
Executive's employment with the Company and for three (3) years after the
termination of the Executive's employment with the Company, the Executive shall
regard and treat all information constituting a Trade Secret or Confidential
Information as strictly confidential and wholly owned by the Company and will
not, for any reason in any fashion, either directly or indirectly, use, sell,
lend, lease, distribute, license, give, transfer, assign, show, disclose,
disseminate, reproduce, copy, appropriate or otherwise communicate any such
information to any party for any purpose other than strictly in accordance with
the express terms of this Agreement and other than as may be required by law.

                           (ii)     To the greatest extent possible, any Work
Product shall be deemed to be "work made for hire" (as defined in the Copyright
Act, 17 U.S.C.A, ss. 101 et seq., as amended) and owned exclusively by the
Company. The Executive hereby unconditionally and irrevocably transfers and
assigns to the Company all rights, title and interest the Executive may
currently have or in the future may have by operation of law or otherwise in or
to any Work Product, including, without limitation, all patents, copyrights,
trademarks, service marks and other intellectual property rights. The Executive
agrees to execute and deliver to the Company any transfers, assignments,
documents or other instruments which the Company may deem necessary or
appropriate to vest complete title and ownership of any Work Product, and all
rights therein, exclusively in the Company.

                           (iii)    The Executive shall immediately notify the
Company of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any
Trade Secrets or Confidential Information by the Executive or any other person
of which the Executive becomes aware. In addition to complying with the
provisions of section 4(c) (i) and 4 (c) (ii), the Executive shall exercise his
best efforts to assist the Company, to the extent the Company deems reasonably
necessary, in the procurement of any protection of the Company's rights to or
in any of the Trade Secrets or Confidential Information.

                           (iv)     Immediately upon termination of the
Executive's employment with the Company, or at any point prior to or after that
time upon the specific request of the Company, the Executive shall return to
the Company all written or descriptive materials of any kind in the Executive's
possession or to which the Executive has access that constitute or contain any
Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, and the confidentiality obligations
of this Agreement shall continue until their expiration under the terms of this
Agreement.

                  (d)      NON-COMPETITION. The Executive agrees that during
his/her employment, he/she will not, either directly or indirectly, alone or in
conjunction with any other party, (i) accept or enter into a Competitive
Position with a Competitor of the company, or (ii) take any action in
furtherance of or in conjunction with a Competitive Position with a Competitor
of the Company. The Executive agrees that for two (2) years after any
termination of his employment with the Company, he/she will not, in the
"Restricted Territory" (as defined in the next sentence), either directly or
indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party, (A) accept or enter
into a Competitive Position with a Competitor of the Company, or (B) take any
action in furtherance of or in conjunction with a Competitive Position with a
Competitor of the Company. For purposes of this Section 4, "Restricted
Territory" shall refer to all geographical areas comprised within the fifty
United States of America, Western Europe, Brazil and Canada. The Executive and
the Company each acknowledge that the scope of the Restricted Territory is
reasonable because (1) the Company is conducting substantial business in all
fifty states (as well as several foreign countries), (2) the Executive occupies
one of the top executive positions with the Company, and (3) the Executive will
be carrying out his employment responsibilities in all locations where the
Company is doing business.

                  (e)      NON-SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS. The Executive agrees
that during the term of his/her employment, he/she will not, either directly or
indirectly, along or in

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5

conjunction with any other party, solicit, divert or appropriate or attempt to
solicit, divert or appropriate any customer or actively sought prospective
customer of the Company for or on behalf of any Competitor of the Company. The
Executive agrees that for two (2) years after any termination of his employment
with the Company, he/she will not, in the Restricted Territory, either directly
or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party, for or on behalf
of a Competitor of the Company, solicit, divert or appropriate or attempt to
solicit, divert or appropriate any customer or actively sought prospective
customer of the Company with whom he had substantial contact during a period of
time up to, but no longer than, eighteen (18) months prior to any termination
of his/her employment with the Company.

                  (f)      NON-SOLICITATION OF COMPANY PERSONNEL. The Executive
agrees that, except to the extent that he/she is required to do so in
connection with his/her express employment responsibilities on behalf of the
Company, during the term of his/her employment he/she will not, either directly
or indirectly, alone on in conjunction with any other party, solicit or attempt
to solicit any employee, consultant, contractor or other personnel of the
Company to terminate, alter or lessen that party's affiliation with the Company
or to violate the terms of any agreement or understanding between such
employee, consultant, contractor or other person and the Company. The Executive
agrees that for two (2) years after any termination of his/her employment with
the Company, and in the Restricted Territory, he/she will not, either directly
or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other party, solicit or attempt
to solicit any "material" or "key" (as those terms are defined in the next
sentence) employee, consultant, contractor or other personnel of the Company to
terminate, alter or lessen that party's affiliation with the Company or to
violate the terms of any agreement or understanding between such employee,
consultant, contractor or other person and the company. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, "material" or "key" employees, consultants, contractors or
other personnel of the Company are those who have access to the Company's Trade
Secrets and Confidential Information and whose position or affiliation with the
Company is significant.

                  (g)      REMEDIES. Executive agrees that damages at law for
the Executive's violation of any of the covenants in this Section 4 would not
be an adequate or proper remedy and that should the Executive violate or
threaten to violate any of the provisions of such covenants, the Company or its
successors or assigns shall be entitled to obtain a temporary or permanent
injunction against Executive in any court having jurisdiction prohibiting any
further violation of any such covenants, in addition to any award or damages,
compensatory, exemplary or otherwise, for such violation, if any.

                  (h)      PARTIAL ENFORCEMENT. The Company has attempted to
limit the rights of the Executive to compete only to the extent necessary to
protect the Company from unfair competition. The Company, however, agrees that,
if the scope of enforceability of these restrictive covenants is in any way
disputed at any time, a court or other trier of fact may modify and enforce the
covenant to the extent that it believes to be reasonable under the
circumstances existing at the time.

                  (a)      DEATH. The Executive's employment hereunder shall
terminate upon the death of the Executive, provided, however, that for purposes
of the payment of compensation and benefits to the Executive under this
Agreement the death of the Executive shall be deemed to have occurred ninety
(90) days from the last day of the month in which the death of the Executive
shall have occurred.

                  (b)      INCAPACITY. The Company may terminate the
Executive's employment hereunder at the end of any calendar month by giving
written Notice of Termination to the Executive in the event of the Executive's
incapacity due to physical or mental illness which prevents the proper
performance of the duties of the Executive set forth herein or established
pursuant hereto for a substantial portion of any six (6) month period of the
Executive's term of employment hereunder. Any question as to the existence,
extent or potentiality of illness or incapacity of Executive upon which Company
and Executive cannot agree shall be determined by a qualified independent
physician selected by the Company and approved by Executive (or, if Executive
is unable to give such approval, by any adult member of the immediate family or
the duly appointed guardian of the Executive). The determination of such
physician shall be certified in writing to the Company and to the Executive and
shall be final and conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement.

                  (c)      CAUSE. The Company may terminate the Executive's
employment hereunder for Cause by giving written Notice of Termination to the
Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall have "Cause"
to terminate the Executive's employment hereunder upon: (i) the Executive's
habitual drunkenness or chronic substance abuse; (ii) a willful failure by the
Executive to materially perform and discharge the duties and responsibilities
of the Executive hereunder; (iii) any breach by the Executive of the provisions
of Section 4 hereof; (iv) any misconduct by the Executive that is materially
injurious to the Company; or (v) a conviction of a felony involving the
personal dishonesty or moral turpitude of the Executive.

                  (d)      WITHOUT CAUSE; GOOD REASON.

                           (i)      The Company may terminate the Executive's
employment hereunder without Cause, by giving written Notice of termination to
the Executive.

                           (ii)     The Executive may terminate his employment
hereunder, by giving written Notice of Termination to the Company. For the
purposes of this Agreement, the Executive shall have "Good Reason" to terminate
his employment hereunder upon (and without the written consent of the
Executive) (a) a reduction in the Executive's base salary or benefits received
from the Company, other than in connection with an across-the-board reduction
in salaries and/or benefits for similarly situated employees of the Company or
pursuant to the Company's standard retirement policy; or (b) the relocation of
the Executive's full-time office to a location greater than fifty (50) miles
from the Company's current corporate office; or (c) a material breach by the
Company of this Agreement.

                  (e)      NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination by the
Company pursuant to the Subsections (b), (c) or (d)(i) above or by the
Executive pursuant to Subsection (d)(ii) above, shall be communicated by
written Notice of Termination from the party issuing such notice to the other
party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall
mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision of this
Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and
circumstances claimed to provide a basis for such termination. A date of
termination specified in the Notice of Termination shall not be dated earlier
than ninety (90) days from the date such Notice is delivered or mailed to the
applicable party.

                  (f)      OBLIGATION TO PAY. Except upon voluntary termination
by the Executive without Good Reason and subject to Section 6 below, the
Company shall pay the compensation specified in this Subsection 5(f) to the
Executive for the period specified in this Subsection 5(f). The company also
will continue insurance benefits during the remainder of the applicable period,
including the Severance Period set forth in this Subsection 5(f). If the
Executive's employment shall be terminated by reason of death, the estate of
the Executive shall be paid all sums otherwise payable to the Executive through
the end of the third month after the month in which the death of the Executive
occurred and all bonus or other incentive benefits accrued or accruable to the
Executive through the end of the month in which the death of the Executive
occurred and the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive
under this Agreement. If the Executive's employment is terminated by reason of
incapacity, the Executive or the person charged with legal responsibility for
the Executive's estate shall be paid all sums otherwise payable to the
Executive, including the bonus and other benefits accrued or accruable to the
Executive, through the date of termination specified in the Notice of
Termination, and the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive
under this Agreement. If the Executive's employment shall be terminated for
Cause, the Company shall pay the Executive his Base Salary through the date of
termination specified in the Notice of Termination and the Company shall have
no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement. If the
Executive's employment shall be terminated by the Company, without cause or by
the Executive for Good Reason, the Company shall (x) continue to pay the
Executive the Base Salary (at the rate in effect on the date of such
termination) for a period of two (2) years beginning as of the date of such
termination (such two (2) year period being referred to hereinafter as the
"Severance Period") at such intervals as the same would have been paid had the
Executive remained in the active service of the Company, and (y) pay the
Executive a pro rata portion of the bonus or other incentive benefits to which
the Executive would have been entitled for the year of termination, had the
Executive remained employed for the entire year, which incentive compensation
shall be payable at the time incentive compensation is payable generally under
the applicable incentive plans. The executive shall have no further right to
receive any other compensation benefits or perquisites after the date of
termination of employment except as determined under the terms of the employee
benefit plans or programs of the Company or under applicable law.

         6.       CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SEVERANCE PERIOD; MITIGATION OF
                  DAMAGES.

                  (a)      If during the Severance Period, the Executive
breaches his obligations under Section 4 above, the Company may, upon written
notice to the Executive, terminate the Severance Period and cease to make any
further payments or provide any benefits described in Subsection 5(f).

                  (b)      Although the Executive shall not be required to
mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in Subsection 5(f) by seeking
other employment, any such payments shall be reduced by any amounts which the
Executive receives or is entitled to receive from another employer with respect
to the Severance Period. The Executive shall promptly notify the Company in
writing in the event that other employment is obtained during the Severance
Period.

         7.       NOTICES. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all
other communications to either party hereunder provided for in the Agreement
