               securities to be issued, or otherwise) of any such taxes.

         C.    Each  Participant  may satisfy  the  withholding  obligations  by
               paying  to the  Corporation  a cash  amount  equal to the  amount
               required to be  withheld or by  tendering  to the  Corporation  a
               number of shares of Common  Stock  having a value  equivalent  to
               such  cash  amount,  or by  use  of any  available  procedure  as
               described under Article Three hereof.

XIII.     Costs and Expenses.

          The costs and  expenses of  administering  this Plan shall be borne by

          employee receiving a Plan Award.

XIV.      Funding of Plan.

         A.   This Plan shall be unfunded.

         B.    Neither  the  Corporation  not  AmeriCom  shall  be  required  to

               Award under this Plan.

         C.    Neither the  Participants  nor any other  persons  shall have any
               interest  in any fund or in any  specific  asset or assets of the

               except to the extent expressly provided hereunder.

         D.    The  interests  of  each   Participant  and  former   Participant

               creditors of the Corporation and A,eriCom.

XV.      Other Incentive Plans.

         The adoption of this Plan does not preclude the adoption by appropriate
         means of any other  incentive plan for  employees,  or the grant of any

XVI.     Payments Due Missing Persons.

         A.    AmeriCom  shall make a  reasonable  effort to locate all  persons
               entitled to benefits  under this Plan;  however,  notwithstanding
               any  provisions of this Plan to the contrary,  if, after a period
               of one year from the date such  benefits  shall be due,  any such
               persons entitled to benefits have not been located,  their rights
               under this Plan shall stand suspended.

         B.    Before this provision  becomes  operative,  AmeriCom shall send a
               certified  letter  to  all  such  persons  at  their  last  known
               addresses  advising  them that their rights under this Plan shall
               be suspended.

         C.    Subject to all applicable  state escheat laws, any such suspended
               amounts  shall be held by the  Corporation  for a  period  of one
               additional  year and  thereafter  such amounts shall be forfeited
               and thereafter remain the property of the Corporation.

XVII.    Incapacity.

         If the  Committee  shall  receive  evidence  satisfactory  to it that a
         person  entitled  to receive  payment of any Plan Award is, at the time
         when  such  benefit  becomes  payable,  a minor,  or is  physically  or
         mentally  incompetent  to  receive  such Plan Award and to give a valid
         release  thereof,  and that another  person or an  institution  is then
         maintaining  or has  custody  of such  person  and  that  no  guardian,
         committee  or other  representative  of the estate of such person shall
         have been duly  appointed,  the Committee may make payment of such Plan
         Award  otherwise  payable  to such  person  to  such  other  person  or
         institution, including a custodian under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act,
         or corresponding  legislation (who shall be an adult, a guardian of the
         minor or a trust  company),  and the  release by such  other  person or
         institution shall be a valid and complete  discharge for the payment of
         such Plan Award.

XVIII.   Evidence of Award.

         Each Plan Award may be evidenced by a signed  written  instrument  (the
         "Award   Indentures")   between  the  Corporation,   AmeriCom  and  the
         Participant containing the terms and conditions of the award.

XIX.     Publication & Availability of Plan.

         A.    A  current  copy of this  Plan and any  interpretative  and legal
               materials  deemed  appropriate  by the  Committee  shall  be made
               generally  available to the potential Award  recipients who, as a
               condition to the delivery of an Award  Indenture,  must represent
               that  they  have had  access  to such  materials  and have  fully
               reviewed them.

         B.    The  foregoing  availability  requirements  will  be  met  if the
               subject  materials are maintained on AmeriCom's  Internet website
               and are accessible  there to potential  Award  recipients  either
               generally or through use of a password actually provided to them.

         C.    In the  event  the  required  materials  are  not  maintained  on
               AmeriCom's Internet website,  then they must be made available in
               hard copy to potential Award  recipients  prior to delivery of an
               Award Indenture.

II.       Shares of Common Stock underlying awards of securities  (derivative or

          such  Common  Stock held in the  Corporation's  treasury  or shares of
          Common Stock acquired on the open market.

          its general counsel shall:

               thereof, in its records of the Corporation's affairs;

               event that shares adequate to meet the Corporation's  obligations
               under the Plan are not authorized;

          E.   Assure that, in conjunction  with the issuance or transfer of any
               securities under the Plan, the holder complies with all reporting
               and registration  requirements  imposed under the Securities Act,
               the Exchange Act, comparable provisions of applicable state laws,
               policies of the Corporation implemented to assure compliance with
               all  such  laws  and  the  regulations   and  rules   promulgated
               thereunder, or the legally available exemptions therefrom.

I.        Officers and  Employees of AmeriCom  who are  regularly  employed on a
          salaried   basis  as  common  law  employees   shall  be  eligible  to

II.       Eligibility  for  participation  under  the Plan  shall  expire on the
          earlier of any date required  under  applicable  laws or the ninetieth
          day  following  the  end  of the  participants  association  with  the
          Corporation and its Subsidiaries.

                                   ARTICLE SIX
                                     AWARDS

I.        The Committee shall have the authority,  in its  discretion,  to grant
          Incentive Stock Options.

II.       Notwithstanding   anything  contained  herein  to  the  contrary,   an
          Incentive  Stock Option may be granted only to common law employees of
          AmeriCom  but not to any  director or officer who is not also a common
          law employee.

III.      The terms and conditions of the Options shall be determined  from time
          to time by the Committee;  provided, however, that the Options granted
          under this Plan shall be subject to the following:

         A.         Exercise Price.

               1.   The Committee shall establish the exercise price at the time
                    any Option is granted at such amount as the Committee  shall
                    determine;  provided,  however,  that the exercise price for
                    each share of Common Stock  purchasable  under any Incentive
                    Stock Option granted hereunder

                                    Page 35
<PAGE>

                    shall be such  amount as the  Committee  shall,  in its best
                    judgment,  determine to be not less than one hundred percent
                    (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at
                    the date the Option is granted; and provided,  further, that
                    in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a person
                    who,  at the time such  Incentive  Stock  Option is granted,
                    owns shares of stock of the  Corporation or of any Parent or
                    Subsidiary  which possess more than ten percent (10%) of the
                    total  combined  voting  power of all  classes  of shares of
                    stock of the Corporation or of any Parent or Subsidiary, the
                    exercise  price for each share of Common Stock shall be such
                    amount  as  the  Committee,  in  its  best  judgment,  shall
                    determine to be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%)
                    of the Fair  Market  Value per share of Common  Stock at the
                    date the Option is granted.

               2.   The  exercise   price  will  be  subject  to  adjustment  in
                    accordance  with the  provisions  of  Article  Seven of this
                    Plan.

         B.    Payment of Exercise Price.

               1.   The price per share of Common  Stock  with  respect  to each
                    Option shall be payable at the time the Option is exercised.

               2.   Such price  shall be payable in cash or  pursuant  to any of
                    the methods set forth in Article Three VII-B hereof.

               3.   Shares of  Common  Stock  delivered  to the  Corporation  in
                    payment of the  exercise  price  shall be valued at the Fair
                    Market Value of the Common Stock on the date  preceding  the
                    date of the exercise of the Option.

         C.    Exercisability of Options.

               1.   Except as provided  in Article  Five III with  reference  to
                    eligibility and Article Six III-A-5 hereof with reference to
                    termination   of   relationship,   each   Option   shall  be
                    exercisable  in  whole  or  in  installments,  and  at  such
                    time(s),  and subject to the  fulfillment  of any conditions
                    on,  and to any  limitations  on,  exercisability  as may be
                    determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of such
                    Options.

               2.   The  right to  purchase  shares  of  Common  Stock  shall be
                    cumulative  so that when the right to purchase any shares of
                    Common  Stock has accrued such shares of Common Stock or any
                    part thereof may be purchased at any time  thereafter  until
                    the expiration or termination of the Option.

         D.    Expiration of Incentive Stock Options.

               No Incentive Stock Option by its terms shall be exercisable after
               the  expiration  of ten (10)  years from the date of grant of the
               Option; provided, however, that in the case of an Incentive Stock
               Option  granted  to a person  who,  at the time  such  Option  is
               granted, owns shares of stock of the Corporation or of any Parent
               or Subsidiary possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total
               combined  voting  power of all  classes of shares of stock of the
               Corporation or of any Parent or Subsidiary, such Option shall not
               be  exercisable  after the  expiration of five (5) years from the
               date such Option is granted.

         E.    Exercise   Upon  Option   Holder's   Termination   of  Employment
               Relationship.

               1.   If the  employment of an Option Holder by AmeriCom or by any
                    Parent or Subsidiary is terminated for any reason other than
                    death,  any  Incentive  Stock Option  granted to such Option
                    Holder may not be  exercised  later than three  months  (one
                    year in the case of termination due to Disability) after the
                    date of such termination of employment.

                                    Page 36
<PAGE>

               2.   a.   If an  Option  Holder's  employment  is  terminated  by
                    AmeriCom for Good Cause or if an Option  Holder  voluntarily
                    terminates his employment other than for Disability  without
                    the written consent of the Committee,  regardless of whether
                    such  Option  Holder  continues  to serve as a  director  of
                    AmeriCom,  then the Option Holder shall, at the time of such
                    termination of employment forfeit all rights to exercise any
                    and all of the outstanding  Option(s) theretofore granted to
                    the Option Holder.

                    b.   The  reduction  in the  ownership  of  AmeriCom  by the
                    Corporation  below one share more than 50% shall be deemed a
                    termination  of the  employment of all Option  Holders under
                    this Plan.

         F.    Maximum Amount of Incentive Stock Options.

               1.   Each Plan Award  under  which  Incentive  Stock  Options are
                    granted  shall  provide that to the extent the  aggregate of
                    the  Fair  Market  Value  of  the  shares  of  Common  Stock
                    (determined  as of the  time  of the  grant  of the  Option)
                    subject to such  Incentive  Stock Option and the fair market
                    values  (determined  as of  the  date(s)  of  grant  of  the
                    option(s)  of all other  shares of Common  Stock  subject to
                    incentive  stock options  granted to an Option Holder by the
                    Corporation or AmeriCom which are  exercisable for the first
                    time by any person during any calendar  year,  exceed(s) one
                    hundred thousand dollars  ($100,000),  such excess shares of
                    Common Stock shall not be deemed to be purchased pursuant to
                    Incentive Stock Options.

               2.   The terms of the  immediately  preceding  sentence  shall be
                    applied by taking all options,  whether or not granted under
                    this  Plan,  into  account  in the  order in which  they are
                    granted.

                                   ADJUSTMENTS

I.       Recapitalization, etc.

         A.    In the  event  there is any  change  in the  Common  Stock of the
               Corporation  by reason of any  reorganization,  recapitalization,
               stock  split,   stock  dividend  or  otherwise,   they  shall  be
               substituted   for  or  added  to  each  share  of  Common   Stock
               theretofore  appropriated  or  thereafter  subject,  or which may
               become subject,  to any Option,  the number and kind of shares of
               stock or other  securities into which each  outstanding  share of
               Common  Stock  shall be so  changed  or for which each such share
               shall be exchanged,  or to which each such share be entitled,  as
               the case may be, and the per share  price  thereof  also shall be
               appropriately adjusted.

         B.    Notwithstanding the foregoing:

               1.   Each  adjustment  with respect to an Incentive  Stock Option
                    shall  comply with the rules of Section  424(a) of the Code,
                    or any successor section thereof; and

               2.   In no event shall any  adjustment be made which would render
                    any  Incentive  Stock Option  granted  hereunder to be other
                    than an  Incentive  Stock Option for purposes of Section 422
                    of the Code or any successor thereof.

II.      Merger, Consolidation or Change in Control of Corporation.

         A.    Upon  the  occurrence  of any  of the  events  set  forth  in the
               immediately following subsections,  the holder of any such Option
               theretofore  granted  and still  outstanding  (and not  otherwise
               expired) shall have the right  immediately prior to the effective
               date of such event to exercise such Option(s) in whole or in part
               without  regard to any  installment  provision that may have been
               made part of the terms and

                                    Page 37
<PAGE>

               conditions  of  such  Option(s)  and all  restrictions  regarding
               transferability  and  forfeiture  on shares of  Restricted  Stock
               shall be removed  immediately prior to the effective date of such
               event;  provided that any conditions precedent to the exercise of
               such Option(s), other than the passage of time, have occurred.

         B.    The predicate  events  referred to in the  immediately  preceding
               subsection are:

               1.   The merger or  consolidation of the Corporation with or into

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

I.       Interpretation.

            A. The words "include,"  "includes" and "including" when used herein
               shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words "without
               limitation."

            B. The headings  contained in this Plan are for  reference  purposes
               only  and  shall  not   affect   in  any  way  the   meaning   or
               interpretation of this Plan.

            C. The captions in this Plan are for  convenience and reference only
               and in no way define, describe, extend or limit the scope of this
               Plan or the intent of any provisions hereof.

            D. All pronouns and any variations  thereof shall be deemed to refer
               to the masculine,  feminine,  neuter,  singular or plural, as the
               identity   of  the   Party  or   Parties,   or   their   personal
               representatives, successors and assigns may require.

            E. Each exhibit and schedule  referenced in this Plan, if any, shall
               be annexed hereto and shall be considered a part hereof as if set
               forth in the body hereof in full.

II.      Severability.

            A. Whenever  legally  possible,  each provision of this Plan will be
               interpreted  in such  manner as to be  effective  and valid under
               applicable  law, but if any  provision of this Plan is held to be
               invalid,  illegal  or  unenforceable  in any  respect  under  any
               applicable  law or rule  in any  jurisdiction,  such  invalidity,
               illegality  or   unenforceability   will  not  affect  any  other
               provision  or any  other  jurisdiction  but  this  Plan  will  be
               interpreted,  construed and enforced in such  jurisdiction  as if
               such invalid,  illegal or unenforceable  provision had never been
               contained herein.

               unenforceable,  by acceptance of a Plan Award, a recipient  shall
               be deemed to have  irrevocably  agreed to authorize a tribunal of
               competent jurisdiction,  acting at the request of the Corporation
               or AmeriCom,  to substitute in its place the legally  enforceable
               provision most closely effecting the intent of the provision that

          shall  provide  the Client  with the  Services,  on a  reasonable,  as
          required basis, consistent with Yankees's other business activities.

(C)       Because of the Client's status under federal  securities  laws, in any
          circumstances where Yankees is describing the securities of the Client
          to  a  third  Party,   Yankees  shall  disclose  to  such  person  the
          compensation received from the Client to the extent required under any
          applicable laws, including,  without limitation,  Section 17(b) of the
          Securities Act of 1933, as amended;  however,  the Parties acknowledge
          they  do  not  contemplate  that  Yankees  shall  be  involved  in any
          activities  on  behalf  of  Client  requiring  such   descriptions  or
          disclosures,  or that the Services  involve any activities  subject to
          regulation  under  federal  or state  securities  laws  other than the
          prohibitions  of the Foreign  Corrupt  Practices  Act,  except for the
          introduction  of the  Client and its  principals  to  licensed  broker
          dealers in securities,  securities analysts and appropriate  corporate
          information and stockholder relations specialists.

1.2       Fiduciary Obligation to Client

     In rendering  its  services,  Yankees shall not disclose to any third party
any  confidential  non-public  information  furnished by the Client or otherwise

1.3      Limitations on Services

(A)       The Parties  recognize that certain  responsibilities  and obligations
          are imposed by federal and state securities laws and by the applicable
          rules and regulations of stock exchanges,  the National Association of
          Securities  Dealers,  Inc.  (collectively  with its subsidiaries being
          hereinafter  referred to as the "NASD"),  in-house "due  diligence" or
          "compliance"   departments  of  licensed   securities   firms,   etc.;
          accordingly,  Yankees agrees that it will not release any  information
          or data about the Client to any selected or limited person(s), entity,
          or group if the Consultant is aware that such  information or data has
          not been generally released or promulgated.

(B)       Yankees  shall  restrict or cease,  as  directed  by the  Client,  all
          efforts  on behalf  of the  Client,  including  all  dissemination  of
          information   regarding  the  Client,   immediately  upon  receipt  of
          instructions  (in  writing by fax or letter) to that  effect  from the
          Client.

1.4       Consultant's Compensation

(A)       Yankees  will  bill at its  standard  hourly  rates for all work as to
          which a prior written  arrangement  with different  terms has not been
          entered into,  however,  no hourly billable  services will be provided
          except at the Client's  specific  request and, the service of Yankees'
          directors,  Messrs.  William A. Calvo,  III, and Leonard Miles Tucker,

<PAGE>

          provided  at the fixed rate of $10,000  per month,  in the  aggregate,
          payment for which will be deferred and accrued  until  adequate  funds
          become  available or this  Agreement is  terminated,  whichever  shall
          first occur.

(B)       In addition to the  compensation  described  above with  reference  to
          services  during the Initial Term of this Agreement and whether or not
          the following services are rendered during such Initial Term:

          (1)  In the event that  Yankees  arranges or provides  funding for the
               Client on terms  more  beneficial  than  those  reflected  in the
               Client's current principal financing agreements,  copies of which
               are included  among the Client's  records  available  through the
               SEC's EDGAR web site, the subject  Consultant  shall be entitled,
               at its election, to either:

               (a)  A fee equal to 25% of such savings,  on a continuing  basis;
                    or

               (b)  If  equity  funding  is  provided   though  Yankees  or  any
                    affiliates  thereof, a discount of 10% from the lowest price
                    at which such securities are offered to any other person for
                    the subject equity securities,  if they are issuable as free
                    trading  securities,  or, a discount  of 50% from the lowest
                    price at which  such  securities  are  offered  to any other
                    person  for the  subject  equity  securities,  if  they  are
                    issuable as restricted securities (as the term restricted is
                    used for purposes of SEC Rule 144); and

          (2)  In the event that  Yankees  generates  business  for the  Client,
               then, on any sales resulting therefrom, Yankees shall be entitled
               to a commission  equal to 10% of the gross income  derived by the
               Client therefrom, on a continuing basis.

          (3)  In the event that Yankees or any affiliate  thereof  arranges for
               an acquisition  by the Client,  then Yankees shall be entitled to
               compensation  equal  to 10% of the  compensation  paid  for  such
               acquisition,  in  addition  to any  compensation  negotiated  and
               received from the acquired entity or its affiliates.

(C)      Client will assure that its legal counsel promptly prepares all reports
         which then  existing  holders  of the  Client's  securities  (including
         Yankees,  its  affiliates  and  successors in interest) are required to
         file with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  as a result of the
         Client's reporting status, including Securities and Exchange Commission
         Forms 3, 4 and 5, Schedules 13(d) and Schedules 13(g), and shall submit
         all such reports to the subject  stockholders  for prompt execution and
         timely filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(D)       (1)  In  addition to payment of fees,  the Client will be  responsible
               for  payment  of all  costs  and  disbursements  associated  with
               Yankees's services either:

               (b)  Reflected in an operating budget approved by the Client; or

               (c)  Approved in writing by the Client;  provided,  however, that
                    the refusal by the Client to approve  expenditures  required
                    for the proper performance of Yankees's services will excuse
                    performance of such services.

          (2)  All of  Yankees's  statements  will be paid  within 10 days after
               receipt.

          (3)  In the event  additional  time for payment is  required,  Yankees
               will have the option of selling  the account  receivable  and the
               Client agrees to pay interest thereon at the monthly rate of 1%.

          (4)  In the event  collection  activities  are  required,  the  Client
               agrees to pay all of  Yankees's  out of pocket  costs  associated
               therewith.

          (5)  There  will be no change or  waiver of the  provisions  contained
               herein, unless such charge is in writing and signed by the Client
               and Yankees.

(E)       (1)  The  rights  to Class A  Options,  as well as rights to all other

               confirmed,  in accordance with their terms  immediately  prior to
               execution of this Agreement.

           (2) AmeriNet hereby confirms and acknowledges  that Yankees has fully
               complied with its obligations under the Old Agreements,  that all
               of  Yankees  rights  thereunder  are fully  vested,  and that all
               compensation payable thereunder has been fully earned.

           (3) Nothing  in  this  Agreement   shall  be  deemed  to  affect  the
               obligation  of AmeriNet to Yankees  under  their  revolving  loan
               agreement,  entered into on or about May 5, 2000 or Yankee rights

                                  ARTICLE THREE
              CONSULTANT'S CONFIDENTIALITY & COMPETITION COVENANTS

3.1      General Provisions

(A)      Yankees  acknowledges  that,  in and as a result of its entry into this
         Agreement, it will be making use of confidential information of special
         and unique  nature and value  relating to such  matters as the Client's
         trade secrets, systems, procedures,  manuals,   confidential   reports;

                                    Page 48
<PAGE>

          consequently,  as material inducement to the entry into this Agreement
          by the Client,  Yankees hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not,
          at anytime during the term of this Agreement, any renewals thereof and
          for two years  following  the  terms of this  Agreement,  directly  or
          indirectly,  use, divulge or disclose, for any purpose whatsoever, any
          of  such  confidential  information  which  has  been  obtained  by or
          disclosed  to it as a result  of its  entry  into  this  Agreement  or
          provision of services hereunder.

(B)       In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Yankees of any of the
          provisions of this Article Three,  the Client,  in addition to and not
          in limitation of any other  rights,  remedies or damages  available to
          the  Client,  whether  at law or in  equity,  shall be  entitled  to a
          permanent  injunction  in order to  prevent  or to  restrain  any such
          breach by such Consultant,  or by its partners,  directors,  officers,
          stockholders, agents, representatives, servants, employers, employees,
          affiliates  and/or any and all persons  directly or indirectly  acting
          for or with it.

3.2       Special Remedies

          In view of the irreparable  harm and damage  which  would  undoubtedly
occur to the  Client  and its  clients as a result of a breach by Yankees of the
covenants or agreements contained in this Article Three, and in view of the lack
of an adequate remedy at law to protect the Client's  interests,  Yankees hereby
covenants and agrees that the Client shall have the following  additional rights
and remedies in the event of a breach hereof:

(A)      Yankees  hereby  consents to the  issuance  of a  permanent  injunction
         enjoining it from any  violations  of the  covenants  set forth in this
         Article Three; and

(B)      Because it is  impossible  to ascertain or estimate the entire or exact
         cost,  damage or injury  which the Client or its  clients  may  sustain
         prior to the effective  enforcement of such injunction,  Yankees hereby
         covenants  and  agrees  to pay  over to the  Client,  in the  event  it
         violates the covenants and agreements  contained in this Article Three,
         the greater of:

         (1)   Any payment or compensation of any kind received by it because of
               such violation before the issuance of such injunction, or

         (2)   The sum of One Thousand Dollars per violation, which sum shall be
               liquidated damages,  and not a penalty, for the injuries suffered
               by the Client or its clients as a result of such  violation,  the
               Parties  hereto  agreeing  that such  liquidated  damages are not
               intended as the exclusive  remedy available to the Client for any
               breach of the covenants and agreements  contained in this Article
               Three,  prior to the  issuance  of such  injunction,  the Parties
               recognizing  that the only adequate  remedy to protect the Client
               and its clients from the injury caused by such breaches  would be
               injunctive relief.

                                    Page 49
<PAGE>

3.3      Cumulative Remedies

         Yankees hereby  irrevocably  agrees that the remedies described in this
Article  Three shall be in  addition  to, and not in  limitation  of, any of the
rights or  remedies  to which the Client and its  clients are or may be entitled
to, whether at law or in equity, under or pursuant to this Agreement.

3.4      Acknowledgment of Reasonableness

(A)       Yankees hereby represents,  warrants and acknowledges that its members
          or officers and  directors  have  carefully  read and  considered  the
          provisions of this Article Three and,  having done so, agrees that the
          restrictions  set  forth  herein  are  fair  and  reasonable  and  are
          reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Client,
          its members, officers, directors,  consultants,  agents and employees;
          consequently,   in  the   event   that  any  of  the   above-described
          restrictions  shall be held  unenforceable  by any court of  competent
          jurisdiction,  Yankees hereby covenants, agrees and directs such court
          to substitute a reasonable judicially  enforceable limitation in place
          of any limitation  deemed unenforce able and, Yankees hereby covenants
          and  agrees  that if so  modified,  the  covenants  contained  in this
          Article  Three shall be as fully  enforceable  as if they had been set
          forth herein directly by the Parties.

(B)       In  determining  the  nature  of  this   limitation,   Yankees  hereby
          acknowledges,  covenants  and  agrees  that  it is the  intent  of the
          Parties  that  a  court   adjudicating  a  dispute  arising  hereunder
          recognize that the Parties desire that these  covenants not to compete
          or  circumvent  be  imposed  and  maintained  to the  greatest  extent
          possible.

3.5       Exclusivity

         Yankees shall not be required to devote all of its business time to the
affairs of the  Client,  rather it shall  devote  such time as it is  reasonably
necessary in light of its other business commitments.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR
                 CLIENT' CONFIDENTIALITY & COMPETITION COVENANTS

4.1      General Prohibitions

(A)      The Client  acknowledges  that, in and as a result of its engagement of
         Yankees,  the Client will be making use of confidential  information of
         special  and  unique  nature  and value  relating  to such  matters  as
         Yankees's  business  contacts,  professional  advisors,  trade secrets,
         systems, procedures,  manuals,  confidential reports, lists of clients,
         potential customers and funders;  consequently,  as material inducement

         covenants and agrees that it shall not, at

         anytime during the term of this Agreement,  any renewals thereof an for
         two  years  following  the  terms  of  this   Agreement,   directly  or
         indirectly,  use, divulge or disclose, for any purpose whatsoever,  any
         of  such  confidential  information  which  has  been  obtained  by  or
         disclosed to it as a result of its employment of Yankees,  or Yankees's
         affiliates.

(B)      In the event of a breach or  threatened  breach by the Client of any of
         the provisions of this Article Four, Yankees, in addition to and not in
         limitation  of any other  rights,  remedies  or  damages  available  to
         Yankees,  whether at law or in equity, shall be entitled to a permanent
         injunction  in order to prevent or to  restrain  any such breach by the
         Client, or by the Client's partners, directors, officers, stockholders,
         agents,  representatives,  servants, employers,  employees,  affiliates
         and/or any and all persons  directly or  indirectly  acting for or with
         it.

4.2      Special Remedies

         In view of the  irreparable  harm and damage  which  would  undoubtedly
occur to  Yankees  as a result of a breach by the  Client  of the  covenants  or
agreements  contained  in this  Article  Four,  and in  view  of the  lack of an
adequate  remedy  at law to  protect  Yankees's  interests,  the  Client  hereby
covenants and agrees that Yankees shall have the following additional rights and
remedies in the event of a breach hereof:

(A)      The Client  hereby  consents to the issuance of a permanent  injunction
         enjoining it from any  violations  of the  covenants  set forth in this
         Article Four is; and

(B)      Because it is  impossible  to ascertain or estimate the entire or exact
         cost, damage or injury which Yankees may sustain prior to the effective
         enforcement of such injunction,  the Client hereby covenants and agrees
         to pay over to Yankees,  in the event it  violates  the  covenants  and
         agreements contained in this Article Four, the greater of:

         (1)   Any payment or compensation of any kind received by it because of
               such violation before the issuance of such injunction, or

         (2)   The sum of One Thousand Dollars per violation, which sum shall be
               liquidated damages,  and not a penalty, for the injuries suffered
               by  Yankees as a result of such  violation,  the  Parties  hereto
               agreeing  that such  liquidated  damages are not  intended as the
               exclusive  remedy  available  to  Yankees  for any  breach of the
               covenants and agreements contained in this Article Four, prior to
               the issuance of such injunction, the Parties recognizing that the
               only adequate remedy to protect Yankees from the injury caused by
               such breaches would be injunctive relief.

4.3      Cumulative Remedies

         Client hereby  irrevocably  agrees that the remedies  described in this
Article  Four  shall be in  addition  to, and not in  limitation  of, any of the
rights or remedies to which Yankees is or may be entitled to,  whether at law or
in equity, under or pursuant to this Agreement.

4.4       Acknowledgment of Reasonableness

(A)       The Client  hereby  represents,  warrants  and  acknowledges  that its
          officers  and  directors   have  carefully  read  and  considered  the
          provisions  of this Article  Four and,  having done so, agree that the
          restrictions  set  forth  herein  are  fair  and  reasonable  and  are
          reasonably  required for the  protection  of the interests of Yankees,
          its members, officers, directors,  consultants,  agents and employees;
          consequently,   in  the   event   that  any  of  the   above-described
          restrictions  shall be held  unenforceable  by any court of  competent
          jurisdiction,  the Client  hereby  covenants,  agrees and directs such
          court to substitute a reasonable judicially  enforceable limitation in
          place of any limitation  deemed  unenforceable  and, the Client hereby
          covenants and agrees that if so modified,  the covenants  contained in
          this  Article Four shall be as fully  enforceable  as if they had been
          set forth herein directly by the Parties.

(B)       In  determining  the  nature of this  limitation,  the  Client  hereby
          acknowledges,  covenants  and  agrees  that  it is the  intent  of the
          Parties that a court  adjudicating a dispute hereunder  recognize that
          the Parties  desire that these  covenants not to compete or circumvent
          be imposed and maintained to the greatest extent possible.
