economic harm to the Company,  or (iv) refused to follow the reasonable  written

confidential  information  of the Company  that in any of these cases are in his

computer  programs,  data  bases,  know-how,  processes,  customers,  suppliers,

information,  and information obtained from third parties under  confidentiality
agreements.  "Trade  Secrets"  also  means  formulas,  patterns,   compilations,
programs,  devices,  methods,  techniques,  or processes that derive independent
economic  value,  actual or  potential,  from not being  generally  known to the
public or to other persons who can obtain  economic value from its disclosure or
use, and is the subject of efforts that are reasonable  under the  circumstances
to maintain its secrecy.  In particular,  the parties agree and acknowledge that
the following  list,  which is not  exhaustive  and is to be broadly  construed,
enumerates some of the Company's Trade Secrets, the disclosure of which would be
wrongful and would cause irreparable injury to the Company:  (i) recipes for the
Company's   specialty   potato  chips  and  other   salted  snack  foods;   (ii)
manufacturing  processes for the foregoing products;  (iii) pricing information;
(iv) product development,  marketing,  sales, customer, and supplier information
related to any Company product or service available commercially or in any stage
of development during Executive's  employment with the Company;  and (v) Company
marketing and business strategies,  ideas, and concepts.  Executive acknowledges
that the  Company's  Trade  Secrets were and are  designed and  developed by the

confidential, and unique, and constitute the exclusive property of the Company.

                                       6

selling these products in the Business Territory.

               11.1.3.  "NON-COMPETITION  PERIOD"  means a period  of 12  months
after the termination of Executive's  employment with the Company unless a court
of competent  jurisdiction  determines that that Period is  unenforceable  under
applicable law because it is too long, in which case the Non-Competition  Period
shall be for the longest of the following  periods that the court  determines is
reasonable under the circumstances:  11 months, 10 months, 9 months, 8 months, 7
months, or 6 months

               11.1.4.  "BUSINESS  TERRITORY"  means the entire  United  States,
unless a court of competent  jurisdiction  determines that that geographic scope
is unenforceable under applicable law because it is too broad, in which case the

would be fair and  appropriate  to do so in the  inverse  order of the volume of
revenue  received or  projected  to be received by the Company from such area or
State at the time of determination.

               11.1.5.  "NON-SOLICITATION  PERIOD"  means a period  of 12 months

Company, any Trade Secrets of the Company.

Agreement will prohibit  Executive from owning a passive investment of less than
one percent of the  outstanding  equity  securities of any company listed on any

                                       7

directors, or officers.

          11.7.  REASONABLENESS.  Executive  and  the  Company  agree  that  the
covenants  set forth in this  Agreement  are  appropriate  and  reasonable  when
considered  in  light  of the  nature  and  extent  of the  Company's  business.
Executive further  acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Company has a legitimate
interest in  protecting  the  Company's  business  activities  and its  current,
pending,  and potential  Trade Secrets;  (ii) the covenants set forth herein are
not  oppressive  to Executive  and contain  reasonable  limitations  as to time,
scope,  geographical area, and activity;  (iii) the covenants do not harm in any
manner  whatsoever the public  interest;  (iv)  Executive's  chosen  profession,
trade, or business is in  manufacturing,  developing,  and marketing retail food
products (the  "Profession")  (v) the  Restricted  Field is only a very small or
limited part of the Profession, and Executive can work in many different jobs in
Executive's Profession besides those in the Restricted Field; (vi) the covenants
set  forth  herein  do  not  completely   restrain  Executive  from  working  in
Executive's  Profession,  and  Executive  can earn a livelihood  in  Executive's
Profession  without  violating  any of the  covenants  set forth  herein;  (vii)
Executive has received and will receive  substantial  consideration for agreeing

<PAGE>
to such covenants, including without limitation the consideration to be received
by  Executive  under  this  Agreement;  (viii) if  Executive  were to work for a
competing  company that engages in activities  in the  Restricted  Field,  there
would be a substantial  risk that  Executive  would  inevitably  disclose  Trade
Secrets to that company;  (ix) the Company  competes with other  companies  that
engage  in  Restricted  Field  Activities  in  the  Business  Territory,  and if
Executive were to engage in prohibited activities in the Restricted Field within
the  Business  Territory,  it would harm the  Company;  (x) the Company  expends
considerable  resources on hiring,  training, and retaining its employees and if
Executive were to engage in prohibited  activities  during the  Non-Solicitation
Period,  it would harm the Company;  and (xi) the Company  expends  considerable
resources  acquiring,  servicing,  and  retaining its Customers and if Executive
were to engage in prohibited  activities during the Non-Solicitation  Period, it

obligations  under this  Agreement to any  corporation,  firm or other  business
entity  (i) with or into which the  Company  may merge or  consolidate,  (ii) to
which the Company may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets or

provisions of this Agreement.  This provision with respect to injunctive  relief
shall not,  however,  diminish  the right of the  Company  to claim and  recover
damages in addition to injunctive relief

waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall
operate  only as to the  specific  term  or  condition  waived,  and  shall  not
constitute  a waiver of such term or  condition  for the future or as to any act
other than that specifically waived.

          14.7.  SEVERABILITY.  To the extent any  provision  of this  Agreement
shall be invalid or  unenforceable,  it shall be  considered  deleted  from this

Company policy or rules of the Company, unless cured by Executive within 30 days
following written notice thereof to Executive,  or (iii) Executive's willful and
material  violation of, or  noncompliance  with,  any  securities  laws or stock
exchange listing rules, including, without limitation, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of

known about the Company or its business,  including without limitation about its
products,  recipes,  projects,  designs,  developmental  or  experimental  work,
computer  programs,  data  bases,  know-how,  processes,  customers,  suppliers,
business  plans,   marketing  plans  and  strategies,   financial  or  personnel
information,  and information obtained from third parties under  confidentiality
agreements.  "Trade  Secrets"  also  means  formulas,  patterns,   compilations,
programs,  devices,  methods,  techniques,  or processes that derive independent
economic  value,  actual or  potential,  from not being  generally  known to the
public or to other persons who can obtain  economic value from its disclosure or
use, and is the subject of efforts that are reasonable  under the  circumstances
to maintain its secrecy.  In particular,  the parties agree and acknowledge that
the following  list,  which is not  exhaustive  and is to be broadly  construed,
enumerates some of the Company's Trade Secrets, the disclosure of which would be
wrongful and would cause irreparable injury to the Company:  (i) recipes for the
Company's   specialty   potato  chips  and  other   salted  snack  foods;   (ii)
manufacturing  processes for the foregoing products;  (iii) pricing information;
(iv) product development,  marketing,  sales, customer, and supplier information
related to any Company product or service available commercially or in any stage
of development during Executive's  employment with the Company;  and (v) Company
marketing and business strategies,  ideas, and concepts.  Executive acknowledges
that the  Company's  Trade  Secrets were and are  designed and  developed by the
Company  at great  expense  and  over  lengthy  periods  of  time,  are  secret,
confidential, and unique, and constitute the exclusive property of the Company.

               11.1.2.  "RESTRICTED  FIELD" means the business of manufacturing,
developing,  marketing,  and/or selling  specialty  potato chips or other salted

selling these products in the Business Territory.

               11.1.3.  "NON-COMPETITION  PERIOD"  means a period  of 12  months
after the termination of Executive's  employment with the Company unless a court
of competent  jurisdiction  determines that that Period is  unenforceable  under
applicable law because it is too long, in which case the Non-Competition  Period
shall be for the longest of the following  periods that the court  determines is
reasonable under the circumstances:  11 months, 10 months, 9 months, 8 months, 7
months, or 6 months

               11.1.4.  "BUSINESS  TERRITORY"  means the entire  United  States,
unless a court of competent  jurisdiction  determines that that geographic scope
is unenforceable under applicable law because it is too broad, in which case the
Business Territory shall be amended by eliminating geographical areas and states
from the  following  list  until the  Business  Territory  is  determined  to be
reasonable:   Alabama,   Alaska,  Arizona,   Arkansas,   California,   Colorado,

District of  Columbia,  West  Virginia,  Wisconsin,  Wyoming,  Maricopa  County,
Arizona,  Phoenix, Arizona. The parties acknowledge and agree that if any of the
geographic areas or States listed above are required by law to be eliminated, it
would be fair and  appropriate  to do so in the  inverse  order of the volume of
revenue  received or  projected  to be received by the Company from such area or
State at the time of determination.

               11.1.5.  "NON-SOLICITATION  PERIOD"  means a period  of 12 months

Company, any Trade Secrets of the Company.

          11.3.   NON-COMPETITION   OBLIGATIONS.   Executive   acknowledges  the
substantial  amount of time,  money,  and effort  that the Company has spent and

Non-Competition  Period,  Executive will not, alone or with others,  directly or
indirectly, as an employee, agent, consultant,  advisor, owner, manager, lender,

Restricted  Field  activities  in the  Business  Territory,  nor  have  any such
relationship  with any  person  or  entity  that  engages  in  Restricted  Field
activities in the Business Territory;  provided,  however,  that nothing in this
Agreement will prohibit  Executive from owning a passive investment of less than
one percent of the  outstanding  equity  securities of any company listed on any
national securities exchange or traded actively in any national over-the-counter
market so long as  Executive  has no other  relationship  with such  company  in
violation  of this  Agreement.  The  Non-Competition  Period  set  forth in this
Section  11.3 shall be tolled  during any  period in which the  Executive  is in
breach of the restriction set forth herein.

the termination of such  employment,  or (ii) any person or entity whose account
with the  Company  has been  directly  solicited  at least  twice by the Company

Executive's  own behalf or in the  service  or on the behalf of others  solicit,
divert,  or hire away,  or attempt to solicit,  divert,  or hire away any person
then  employed  by the  Company,  nor  encourage  anyone to leave the  Company's
employ.  The  Non-Solicitation  Period set forth in this  Section  11.5 shall be
tolled during any period in which the Executive is in breach of the  restriction
set forth herein.

          11.6.  NON-DISPARAGEMENT.  Executive  agrees that  during  Executive's

<PAGE>
          11.7.  REASONABLENESS.  Executive  and  the  Company  agree  that  the
covenants  set forth in this  Agreement  are  appropriate  and  reasonable  when
considered  in  light  of the  nature  and  extent  of the  Company's  business.

interest in  protecting  the  Company's  business  activities  and its  current,
pending,  and potential  Trade Secrets;  (ii) the covenants set forth herein are
not  oppressive  to Executive  and contain  reasonable  limitations  as to time,
scope,  geographical area, and activity;  (iii) the covenants do not harm in any
manner  whatsoever the public  interest;  (iv)  Executive's  chosen  profession,
trade, or business is in  manufacturing,  developing,  and marketing retail food
products (the  "Profession")  (v) the  Restricted  Field is only a very small or
limited part of the Profession, and Executive can work in many different jobs in
Executive's Profession besides those in the Restricted Field; (vi) the covenants
set  forth  herein  do  not  completely   restrain  Executive  from  working  in
Executive's  Profession,  and  Executive  can earn a livelihood  in  Executive's
Profession  without  violating  any of the  covenants  set forth  herein;  (vii)
Executive has received and will receive  substantial  consideration for agreeing
to such covenants, including without limitation the consideration to be received
by  Executive  under  this  Agreement;  (viii) if  Executive  were to work for a

would be a substantial  risk that  Executive  would  inevitably  disclose  Trade
Secrets to that company;  (ix) the Company  competes with other  companies  that
engage  in  Restricted  Field  Activities  in  the  Business  Territory,  and if
Executive were to engage in prohibited activities in the Restricted Field within
the  Business  Territory,  it would harm the  Company;  (x) the Company  expends
considerable  resources on hiring,  training, and retaining its employees and if
Executive were to engage in prohibited  activities  during the  Non-Solicitation
Period,  it would harm the Company;  and (xi) the Company  expends  considerable
resources  acquiring,  servicing,  and  retaining its Customers and if Executive
were to engage in prohibited  activities during the Non-Solicitation  Period, it
would harm the Company.

     12. OTHER AGREEMENTS. Executive reaffirms Executive's obligations set forth
in the  Employee  Proprietary  Rights  Agreement  attached  hereto as EXHIBIT A.

Insider Trading policy.

     13.  ASSIGNMENT.  This Agreement  shall not be  assignable,  in whole or in
part,  by either party  without the written  consent of the other party,  except

obligations  under this  Agreement to any  corporation,  firm or other  business

Company.  Upon such  assignment  by the Company,  the Company  shall  attempt to
obtain the assignees'  written agreement  enforceable by Executive to assume and
perform, from and after the date of such assignment,  the terms, conditions, and
provisions imposed by this Agreement upon the Company. After any such assignment
by the Company and such written agreement by the assignee,  the Company shall be
discharged  from  all  further  liability  hereunder  and  such  assignee  shall
thereafter  be deemed to be the Company for the  purposes of all  provisions  of
this Agreement including this Section 13.

shall be entitled to temporary  and permanent  injunctive  relief to enforce the

of the parties  relating to the subject  matter hereof and  supersedes all prior

be deemed effective unless made in writing signed by Executive and the Company.

          14.6.  NO WAIVER.  No term or  condition  of this  Agreement  shall be
deemed to have been  waived  nor shall  there be any  estoppel  to  enforce  any
provisions  of this  Agreement,  except by a statement in writing  signed by the
party against whom enforcement of the waiver or estoppel is sought.  Any written
waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall
operate  only as to the  specific  term  or  condition  waived,  and  shall  not

other than that specifically waived.

          14.7.  SEVERABILITY.  To the extent any  provision  of this  Agreement
shall be invalid or  unenforceable,  it shall be  considered  deleted  from this
Agreement and the remainder of such  provision  and of this  Agreement  shall be

other acts which the Company may  determine  necessary or  desirable  including,
without  limitation,  giving  evidence and testimony in support of the Company's
rights hereunder.

     (f) INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN WORKS OF AUTHORSHIP.  I acknowledge and

or otherwise, nor to make any distribution.

     (b) NO DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Unless authorized in writing
by the Company, I will maintain all Confidential  Information in confidence and,

the Company and, in any event,  upon  termination  of my  Relationship  with the
Company, I will promptly surrender and deliver to the Company (and will not keep

Confidential  Information,  records,  data, notes,  reports,  proposals,  lists,

employment or other business activity (whether or not for compensation)  that is
competitive  with the business in which the Company is involved or may hereafter
become involved,  nor will I engage in any other activity that conflicts with my
obligations  to the  Company.  Prior to working  on,  planning,  preparing  for,
organizing or engaging in any consulting,  employment or other business activity
outside  my  Relationship  with  the  Company,  I will  consult  my  manager  or
supervisor to ensure that no conflict of interest with the Company exists.

for any period, and unless otherwise  expressly agreed in writing between me and
the Company,  my  Relationship  with the Company may be  terminated at any time,
with or without cause by either myself or the Company.  All of the terms of this
Agreement shall survive any termination of my Relationship with the Company.

9. NO EXPECTATION  OF PRIVACY.  The Company  retains the right,  with or without
cause or notice to me, to access or monitor all Computer Information,  including
but not limited to my e-mail and voice mail.  I agree that I have no  reasonable

of privacy or similar right in the Computer  Information.  I agree that Computer

e-mail or other Computer  Information  stored on the Company's  computer  and/or
communications  systems shall become the property of the Company. I agree that I
