                             1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN

      1. Purpose; Types of Awards; Construction.

            The purpose of the AutoInfo, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") is to align the interests of officers, other key employees, consultants
and non-employee directors of AutoInfo, Inc. (the "Company") and its
subsidiaries with those of the stockholders of the Company, to afford an
incentive to such officers, employees, consultants and directors to continue as
such, to increase their efforts on behalf of the Company and to promote the
success of the Company's business. To further such purposes, the Committee may
grant options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. The provisions
of the Plan are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 16(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with
the requirements thereof, as now or hereafter construed, interpreted and applied
by regulations, rulings and cases.

      2. Definitions.

            As used in this Plan, the following words and phrases shall have the
meanings indicated below:

                  (a) "Agreement" shall mean a written agreement entered into
between the Company and an Optionee in connection with an award under the Plan.

                  (b) "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the Company.

                  (c) "Cause" when used in connection with the termination of an
Optionee's employment by the Company or the cessation of an Optionee's service
as a consultant or a member of the Board, shall mean (i) the conviction of the
Optionee for the commission of a felony, (ii) the willful and continued failure
by the Optionee substantially to perform his duties and obligations to the
Company or a Subsidiary (other than any such failure resulting from his
incapacity due to physical or mental illness), or (iii) the willful engaging by
the Optionee in misconduct that is demonstrably injurious to the Company or a
Subsidiary. For purposes of this Section 2(c), no act, or failure to act, on an
Optionee's part shall be considered "willful" unless done, or omitted to be
done, by the Optionee in bad faith and without reasonable belief that his action
or omission was in the best interest of the Company. The Committee shall
determine whether a termination of employment is for Cause for purposes of the
Plan.

Plan and to exercise all the powers and authorities either specifically granted
to it under the Plan or necessary or advisable in the administration of the

            Awards may be granted to officers and other key employees of and
consultants to the Company, and its Subsidiaries, including officers and
directors who are employees, and to Non-employee Directors. In determining the
persons to whom awards shall be granted and the number of shares to be covered
by each award, the Committee shall take into account the duties of the
respective persons, their present and potential contributions to the success of
the Company and such other factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in
connection with accomplishing the purpose of the Plan.

      5. Stock.

            The maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved for the grant
of awards under the Plan shall be 2,000,000, subject to adjustment as provided
in Section 9 hereof. Such shares may, in whole or in part, be authorized but
unissued shares or shares that shall have been or may be required by the
Company.

            If any outstanding award under the Plan should for any reason
expire, be canceled or be forfeited without having been exercised in full, the
shares of Common Stock allocable to the unexercised, canceled or terminated
portion of such award shall (unless the Plan shall have been terminated) become
available for subsequent grants of awards under the Plan.

      6. Terms and Conditions of Options.

            Each Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an
Agreement, in such form and containing such terms and conditions as the
Committee shall from time to time approve, which Agreement shall comply with and
be subject to the following terms and conditions, unless otherwise specifically
provided in such Option Agreement:

                  (a) Number of Shares. Each Option Agreement shall state the
number of shares of Common Stock to which the Option relates.

                  (b) Type of Option. Each Option Agreement shall specifically
state that the Option constitutes an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified
Stock Option.

                  (c) Option Price. Each Option Agreement shall state the Option
Price, which shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair
Market Value of the shares of Common Stock covered by the Option on the date of
grant unless, with respect to Nonqualified Stock Options, otherwise determined
by the Committee. The Option Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 9 hereof. The date as of which the Committee

                                       6
<PAGE>

adopts a resolution expressly granting an Option shall be considered the day on
which such Option is granted, unless such resolution specifies a different date.

                  (d) Medium and Time of Payment. The Option Price shall be paid
in full, at the time of exercise, in cash or in shares of Common Stock then
owned by the Optionee having a Fair Market Value equal to such Option Price or
in a combination of cash and Common Stock or, unless the Committee shall
determine otherwise, by a cashless exercise procedure through a broker-dealer.

                  (e) Exercise Schedule and Period of Options. Each Option
Agreement shall provide the exercise schedule for the Option as determined by
the Committee; provided, however, that, the Committee shall have the authority
to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and
under such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. The
exercise period shall be ten (10) years from the date of the grant of the Option
unless otherwise determined by the Committee; provided, however, that, in the
case of an Incentive Stock Option, such exercise period shall not exceed ten
(10) years from the date of grant of such Option. The exercise period shall be
subject to earlier termination as provided in Sections 6(f) and 6(g) hereof. An
Option may be exercised, as to any or all full shares of Common Stock as to
which the Option has become exercisable, by written notice delivered in person
or by mail to the Secretary of the Company, specifying the number of shares of
Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised.

                  (f) Termination. Except as provided in this Section 6(f) and
in Section 6(g) hereof, an Option may not be exercised unless (i) with respect
to an Optionee who is an employee of the Company, the Optionee is then in the
employ of the Company or a Subsidiary (or a company or a Parent or Subsidiary
company of such company issuing or assuming the Option in a transaction to which
Section 424(a) of the Code applies), and unless the Optionee has remained
continuously so employed since the date of grant of the Option and (ii) with
respect to an Optionee who is a Non-employee Director, the Optionee is then
serving as a member of the Board or as a member of a board of directors of a
company or a Parent or Subsidiary company of such company issuing or assuming
the Option. In the event that the employment of an Optionee shall terminate or
the service of an Optionee as a member of the Board shall cease (other than by
reason of death, Disability, Retirement or Cause), all Options of such Optionee
that are exercisable at the time of such termination may, unless earlier
terminated in accordance with their terms, be exercised within ninety (90) days
after the date of such termination or service (or such different period as the
Committee shall prescribe).

                  (g) Death, Disability or Retirement of Optionee. If an
Optionee shall die while employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or serving as a
member of the Board, or within ninety (90) days after the date of termination of
such Optionee's employment or cessation of such Optionee's service (or within
such different period as the Committee may have provided pursuant to Section
6(f) hereof), or if the Optionee's employment shall terminate or service shall
cease by reason of Disability or Retirement, all Options theretofore granted to
such Optionee (to the extent otherwise exercisable) may, unless earlier
terminated in accordance with their terms, be exercised by the Optionee or by
his beneficiary, at any time

                                       7
<PAGE>

within one year after the death, Disability or Retirement of the Optionee (or
such different period as the Committee shall prescribe). In the event that an
Option granted hereunder shall be exercised by the legal representatives of a
deceased or former Optionee, written notice of such exercise shall be
accompanied by a certified copy of letters testamentary or equivalent proof of
the right of such legal representative to exercise such Option. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, Options not otherwise exercisable on the date of
termination of employment shall be forfeited as of such date.

                  (h) Other Provisions. The Option Agreements evidencing awards
under the Plan shall contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent
with the Plan as the Committee may determine, including penalties for the
commission of competitive acts and a provision providing that no option may be
exercised prior to the consummation of an underwritten initial public offering
of the Company's securities pursuant to a registration statement filed pursuant
to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

      7. Nonqualified Stock Options.

            Options granted pursuant to this Section 7 are intended to
constitute Nonqualified Stock Options and shall be subject only to the general
terms and conditions specified in Section 6 hereof.

      8. Incentive Stock Options.

            Options granted pursuant to this Section 8 are intended to
constitute Incentive Stock Options and shall be subject to the following special
terms and conditions, in addition to the general terms and conditions specified
in Section 6 hereof. An Incentive Stock Option may not be granted to a
Non-employee Director or a consultant to the Company.

                  (a) Value of Shares. The aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the shares
of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under this
Plan and all other option plans of any subsidiary become exercisable for the
first time by each Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000.

                  (b) Ten Percent Stockholder. In the case of an Incentive Stock
Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, (i) the Option Price shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the shares
of Common Stock on the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option, and (ii)
the exercise period shall not exceed five (5) years from the date of grant of
such Incentive Stock Option.

                                       8

      9. Effect of Certain Changes.

                  (a) In the event of any extraordinary dividend, stock
dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, stock split, warrant or
rights issuance, or combination or exchange of such shares, or other similar
transactions, each of the number of shares of Common Stock available for awards,
the number of such shares covered by outstanding awards, and the price per share
of Options, as appropriate, shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee to
reflect such event and preserve the value of such awards; provided, however,
that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated.

                  (b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each Option
granted under the Plan and then outstanding but not yet exercisable shall
thereupon become fully exercisable.

      10. Surrender and Exchange of Awards.

            The Committee may permit the voluntary surrender of all or a portion
of any Option granted under the Plan or any option granted under any other plan,
program or arrangement of the Company or any Subsidiary ("Surrendered Option"),
to be conditioned upon the granting to the Optionee of a new Option for the same
number of shares of Common Stock as the Surrendered Option, or may require such
voluntary surrender as a condition precedent to a grant of a new Option to such
Optionee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, such new Option may be an
Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option, and shall be exercisable
at the price, during such period and on such other terms and conditions as are
specified by the Committee at the time the new Option is granted.

      11. Period During Which Awards May Be Granted.

            Awards may be granted pursuant to the Plan from time to time within
a period of ten (10) years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board, or
the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company, whichever is
earlier, unless the Board shall terminate the Plan at an earlier date.

      12. Nontransferability of Awards.

            Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, awards granted
under the Plan shall not be transferable otherwise than by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution, and awards may be exercised or otherwise realized,
during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee or by his guardian or
legal representative.

      13. Approval of Shareholders.

            The Plan shall take effect upon its adoption by the Board and shall
terminate on the tenth anniversary of such date, but the Plan (and any grants of
awards made prior to the

                                       9
<PAGE>

shareholder approval mentioned herein) shall be subject to the approval of
Company's shareholders, which approval must occur within twelve months of the
date the Plan is adopted by the Board.

      14. Agreement by Optionee Regarding Withholding Taxes.

            If the Committee shall so require, as a condition of exercise of a
Nonqualified Stock Option (a "Tax Event"), each Optionee who is not a
Non-employee Director shall agree that no later than the date of the Tax Event,
such Optionee will pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee regarding payment of any federal, state or local taxes of any kind
required by law to be withheld upon the Tax Event. Alternatively, the Committee
may provide that such an Optionee may elect, to the extent permitted or required
by law, to have the Company deduct federal, state and local taxes of any kind
required by law to be withheld upon the Tax Event from any payment of any kind
due the Optionee. The withholding obligation may be satisfied by the withholding
or delivery of Common Stock. Any decision made by the Committee under this
Section 15 shall be made in its sole discretion.

      15. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

            The Board at any time and from time to time may suspend, terminate,
modify or amend the Plan; provided, however, that, unless otherwise determined
by the Board, an amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the
Plan to continue to comply with Rule 16b-3, Section 162(m) of the Code or any
other law, regulation or stock exchange requirement shall not be effective
unless approved by the requisite vote of stockholders. Except as provided in
Section 10 (a) hereof, no suspension, termination, modification or amendment of
the Plan may adversely affect any award previously granted, unless the written
consent of the Optionee is obtained.

      16. Rights as a Shareholder.

            An Optionee or a transferee of an award shall have no rights as a
shareholder with respect to any shares covered by the award until the date of
the issuance of a stock certificate to him for such shares. No adjustment shall
be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or
other property) or distribution of other rights for which the record date is
prior to the date such stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
Section 10(a) hereof.

      17. No Rights to Employment or Service as a Director.

            Nothing in the Plan or in any award granted or Agreement entered
into pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Optionee the right to continue in the
employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or as a member of the Board or to be
entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or such
Agreement or to interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or
any such Subsidiary to terminate such Optionee's employment or service.

                                       10
<PAGE>

Awards granted under the Plan shall not be affected by any change in duties or
position of an employee Optionee as long as such Optionee continues to be
employed by the Company or any Subsidiary.

      18. Beneficiary.

            An Optionee may file with the Committee a written designation of a
beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from
time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary
survives the Optionee, the executor or administrator of the Optionee's estate
shall be deemed to be the Optionee's beneficiary.

      19. Governing Law.

            The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant
hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.

                                       11EXHIBIT 10-I

                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

      AGREEMENT amended and restated as of October 1, 1999 by and between
AutoInfo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Auto") and William Wunderlich residing
at 14 Frost Pond Road, Stanford, Connecticut 06903 ("Wunderlich").

      WHEREAS, Wunderlich is currently the President and Chief Financial Officer
of Auto; and

      WHEREAS, the Company desires to assure itself of the benefit of
Wunderlich's services and experience for a period of time; and

      WHEREAS, Wunderlich is willing to enter into an agreement to that end with
the Company upon the terms and conditions herein set forth.

      NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      1. Employment. Auto hereby employs Wunderlich as its President and Chief
Financial Officer and Wunderlich hereby accepts such employment and agrees to
perform his duties and responsibilities hereunder in accordance with the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth.

      2. Duties and Responsibilities. Wunderlich shall be the President and
Chief Financial Officer of Auto during the Employment Term (as defined below).
Wunderlich shall report to and be subject to the direction of the Board of
Directors (the "Board") of Auto and Wunderlich shall perform such duties as may
be assigned to him from time to time by the Board; provided, that such duties
shall be of a nature consistent with the dignity and authority of the positions
of President and Chief Financial Officer. During the Employment Term Wunderlich
shall, subject to the Company's vacation policy, devote substantially all of his
normal business time and attention to the businesses of Auto and its
subsidiaries and affiliates and shall perform such duties in a diligent,
trustworthy, loyal, businesslike and efficient manner, all for the purpose of
advancing the business of Auto and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit Wunderlich from devoting
a nominal amount of his time to his (and his family's) personal investments,
provided, however, that, in case of conflict, the performance of Wunderlich's
duties under this Agreement shall take precedence over his activities with
respect to such investments.

      3. Term. The Term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and
shall continue until September 30, 2001, unless terminated prior thereto in
accordance with the terms and provisions hereof (the "Employment Term").

<PAGE>

      4. Compensation. Auto shall pay to Wunderlich a salary at the rate of
$150,000 per year, payable in such manner as Auto shall determine, but in no
event any less often than monthly, less withholding required by law and other
deductions agreed to by Wunderlich. Wunderlich's annual salary may be increased
during the Employment Term in the sole discretion of the Board.

      5. Bonus. In addition to the compensation provided for in Paragraph 4 of
this Agreement, Wunderlich shall during the Employment Term participate in the
Company's then existing and effective profit sharing and bonus plans.
Furthermore Wunderlich shall receive such other bonuses as determined in the
sole discretion of the Board.

      6. Principal Office. Without Wunderlich's consent, Auto shall not require
Wunderlich to maintain his principal office in any location other than the New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut tri-state area.

      7. Expenses and Benefits.

            (a) Auto shall, consistent with Auto's policy of reporting and
reimbursement of business expenses, reimburse Wunderlich for such other ordinary
and necessary entertainment and business related expenses as shall be incurred
by Wunderlich in the course of the performance of his duties under this
Agreement.

            (b) Auto recognizes that Wunderlich will be required to incur
significant travel in rendering services to Auto hereunder and in connection
therewith Auto shall during the Employment Term provide Wunderlich with a
automobile allowance of $750 per month which the parties agree shall be used to
pay all of the expenses associated with the operation of an automobile
including, without limitation, maintenance, repair and insurance costs.

            (c) Wunderlich shall be entitled to participate, to the extent he
qualifies, in such life insurance, hospitalization, disability and other medical
insurance plans or programs as are generally made available to executive
officers of Auto which shall be consistent with the programs and benefits
currently offered to Wunderlich.

      8. Termination and Termination Benefits.

            (a) Termination by the Company.

                  (i) For Cause. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein,
the Company may terminate this Agreement at any time during the Employment Term
for "cause". For purposes of this subsection 8(a)(i), "cause" shall mean (1) the
continuing failure by the Executive to substantially perform his duties
hereunder for any reason other than total or partial incapacity due to physical
or mental illness, (2) gross negligence or gross malfeasance on the part of the
Executive in the performance of his duties hereunder that

                                       2
<PAGE>

demonstrably cause harm to the Company, and (3) the conviction of the Executive,
by a court of competent jurisdiction, of a felony or other crime involving moral
turpitude. Termination pursuant to this subsection 8(a)(i) shall be effective
immediately upon giving the Executive written notice thereof stating the reason
or reasons therefor with respect to clauses (2) and (3) above, and 15 days after
written notice thereof from the Company to the Executive specifying the acts or
omissions constituting the failure and requesting that they be remedied with
respect to clause (1) above, but only if the Executive has not cured such
failure within such 15 day period. In the event of a termination pursuant to
this subsection 8(a)(i), the Executive shall be entitled to payment of his Base
Compensation and the benefits pursuant to Section 7 hereof up to the effective
date of such termination.

                  (ii) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, the
Company may terminate this Agreement at any time during the Employment Term
without "cause" upon 120 days' notice to the Executive. In the event of a
termination pursuant to this subsection 8(a)(ii), the Executive shall be
entitled to payment of his Base Compensation and the benefits pursuant to
Section 7 hereof up to the effective date of such termination plus a severance
payment equal to $75,000. In order to effect a termination of this Agreement
pursuant to this provision, simultaneously with the delivery of the termination
notice provided for herein, the Company shall have deposited in escrow with
Morse, Zelnick, Rose & Lander, LLP the amount of $75,000 representing the
severance payment provided for herein, which shall be released to Wunderlich on
the 120th day following the date of the termination notice, provided Wunderlich
shall not be in material breach of this Agreement.

                  (iii) Disability. If due to illness, physical or mental
disability, or other incapacity, the Executive shall fail, for a total 90 days
during any 120 day period ("Disability"), to substantially perform the principal
duties required by this Agreement, the Company may terminate this Agreement upon
30 days' written notice to the Executive; provided, however that if the
Executive commences to perform the duties required by this Agreement within such
30-day period and performs such services for 25 out of 30 of the ensuing work
days, then such notice shall be void. In the event of a termination pursuant to
this subsection 8(a)(iii), the Executive shall be (1) paid his Base Compensation
until the Termination Date and his Pro Rata Share of any Incentive Compensation
to which he would have been entitled for the year in which such termination
occurs, and (2) provided with employee benefits pursuant to Section 4, to the
extent available, for the remainder of the Employment Term; provided, however,
that any compensation to be paid to the Executive pursuant to this subsection
8(a)(iii) shall be offset against any payments received by the Executive
pursuant to any policy of disability insurance the premiums of which are paid
for by the Company. Nothing herein shall be construed to violate any Federal or
State law including the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 27 U.S.C.S.
ss.2601 et seq., and the Americans With Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C.S. ss.12101
et seq.

            (b) Termination by the Executive

                  (i) For Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this
Agreement at any time during the Employment Term for "good reason" upon 30 days'
written notice to the Company (during which period the Executive shall, if
requested in writing by the Company, continue to perform his duties as specified
under this Agreement). "Good reason" shall mean: (1) the Company's failure to
make any of the payments or provide any of the benefits to the Executive under
this Agreement; or (2) the Company's material breach of any provision of this
Agreement; provided, however, that the Company has not cured, or made
substantial efforts to cure, such failure or breach within the aforementioned 30
day period. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the Executive for
"good reason" pursuant to this subsection, the Executive shall be paid a
termination payment in the amount of $75,000. The termination payment be paid to
the Executive no later than 5 days following the effective date of the
Executive's termination. For purposes of this subsection 8(b), the date of
termination of the Executive's employment shall be date on which the Executive
ceases to perform services for the Company.

                  (ii) Without Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this
Agreement at any time during the Employment Term for any reason upon 60 days'
written notice to the Company (during which period the Executive shall continue
to perform his duties as specified under this Agreement). In the event of a
termination pursuant to this subsection 8(b)(ii), the Executive shall be
entitled to payment of his Base Compensation and the benefits pursuant to
Section 4 hereof up to the effective date of such termination.

            (c) Stock Options and Other Benefits. In the event that the
Executive is terminated for reasons other than for "cause" or in the event the
Executive terminates this Agreement for "good reason", any stock options then
held by the Executive and/or any other benefits subject to specified vesting
criteria, shall immediately vest in the Executive; provided, however, all stock
options then held by the Executive and/or any other benefits subject to
specified vesting criteria shall expire and/or terminate 90 days after the date
this Agreement is terminated. The Company agrees to take such steps and to
execute such documents as shall be necessary to effectuate the foregoing.

            (d) Death Benefit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate on the date of the Executive's death.
In such event the Company shall pay Executive's Base Salary to his wife, if she
survives him, or, if she does not survive him, in equal shares to his children
who survive him, through the end of the month in which such death occurs. In
addition, the Company shall pay to Executive's wife, if she survives him, or, if
she does not survive him, in equal shares to his children who survive him, the
Pro Rata Share of any Incentive Compensation to which Executive would have been
entitled for the year in which such death occurs.

            (e) No Mitigation. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate
the amount of any payments provided for by this Agreement by seeking employment
or otherwise,

                                       4
<PAGE>

nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided in this Agreement be
reduced by any compensation or benefit earned by the Executive after termination
of his employment.

      9. Non-Competition. Wunderlich covenants and agrees that during his
employment hereunder and for a period of two years after his employment
hereunder is terminated, he will not, without the prior written consent of Auto,
(a) compete with the business of Auto or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates
and, in particular, he will not without such consent, directly or indirectly,
own, manage, operate, finance, join, control or participate in the ownership,
management, operation, financing or control of, or be connected as a director,
officer, employee, partner, consultant or agent with, any business in
competition with or similar to the business of Auto or any of its subsidiaries
or affiliates; provided, however, that Wunderlich may own up to two percent of
the capital stock of any publicly traded corporation in competition with the
business of Auto or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates if the fair market
value of such corporation's outstanding capital stock exceeds $100 million, and
(b) divert, take away, interfere with or attempt to take away any present or
former employee or customer of Auto or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.
The provisions of this Section 9 shall no longer be applicable if Wunderlich's
employment is terminated by Auto (other than for cause) or by Wunderlich
pursuant to the provisions of Section 8(b)(i) hereof during the Employment Term.
In the event that the provisions of this Section 9 should ever be deemed to
exceed the time or geographic limitations or any other limitations permitted by
applicable law, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed to the maximum
permitted by applicable law. Wunderlich acknowledges and agrees that the
foregoing covenant is an essential element of this Agreement and that, but for
the agreement of Wunderlich to comply with the covenant, the Company would not
have entered into this Agreement, and that the remedy at law for any breach of
the covenant will be inadequate and the Company, in addition to any other relief
available to it, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief
without the necessity of proving actual damage.

      10. Confidential Information. Wunderlich recognizes and acknowledges that
the customer lists, patents, inventions, copyrights, methods of doing business,
trade secrets and proprietary information of Auto including, without limitation,
as the same may exist from time to time, are valuable, special and unique assets
of the business of Auto. Except in the ordinary course of business or as
required by law, Wunderlich shall not, during or after the Employment Term,
disclose any such list of customers or any part thereof, any such patents,
inventions, copyrights, methods of doing business, trade secrets or proprietary
information which are not otherwise in the public domain to any person, firm,
corporation or other entity for any reason whatsoever. In addition, Wunderlich
specifically acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any breach of
the foregoing shall be inadequate and that AutoInfo and the Company, in addition
to any other relief available to them, shall be entitled to temporary and
permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage.

      11. COBRA. In the event of Wunderlich's death during the term of this
Agreement, Auto shall make all COBRA medical premium payments for Wunderlich's
family for the three year period following his death.

                                       5
<PAGE>

      12. Opportunities. During his employment with Auto, Wunderlich shall not
take any action which might divert from Auto or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates any opportunity which would be within the scope of any of the present
or future businesses of Auto or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

      13. Contents of Agreement, Parties in Interest, Assignment, etc. This
Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect
to the subject matter hereof. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto,
except that the duties and responsibilities of Wunderlich hereunder which are of
a personal nature shall neither be assigned nor transferred in whole or in party
by Wunderlich. This Agreement shall not be amended except by a written
instrument duly executed by Auto and Wunderlich.

      14. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall be held
to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such term or provision shall be
ineffective to the extend of such invalidity or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining terms and provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall
be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable term or provision had not been
contained herein.

      15. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be
