         Agreement shall be paid in a single lump sum payment;

         (g)      Payment of all amounts vested as of the Separation Date and to

remaining outstanding reimbursable expenses you have incurred through the

3.       Stock Incentives and Awards. It is agreed that there are no stock
options, incentives or awards due or payable to, or vested and exercisable by,
you.

4.       Non-Competition, Non-Disclosure, Return of Greyhound Property and
Non-Solicitation. You agree that the provisions of Section 9 of your Employment
Agreement (with the exception of Section 9.d. thereof), as modified by this
Agreement, concerning non-disclosure of Confidential Information, the return of
Greyhound property and the non-solicitation of Greyhound personnel, will
continue in effect. It is agreed that the non-competition provisions of Section
9.d. shall not apply. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, you agree to return
to Greyhound, any and all items of its property that came into your possession
during your employment with Greyhound as required by Section 9.b. of the
Employment Agreement.

5.       Indemnification. We agree that the provisions of Section 8 of your
Employment Agreement concerning indemnification in connection with your
employment with Greyhound through the Separation Date will continue in effect.
Additionally, the Indemnification Agreement dated October 16, 1998 by and
between you and Greyhound will remain in full force and effect.

6.       Other Commitments.

         (a)      During the sixty (60) days following the Separation Date, you
         shall provide transitional assistance to Greyhound to the extent we
         mutually agree at no further cost to Greyhound. During this period,
         Greyhound will reimburse you for all reimbursable business expenses, if
         any, incurred with the approval or at the request of Greyhound and will
         provide reasonable clerical support for any agreed upon transitional
         assistance you have agreed to provide. The non-disclosure obligations
         of your Employment Agreement will continue in effect during the course
         of any such transitional assistance.

         change and will promptly forward all personal e-mail, telephone calls,
         messages or mail in a timely manner.

         (d)      You, Greyhound and Parent have agreed that your separation of
         employment shall be communicated internally and externally as having
         resulted from the Parent's desire for a visible change at Greyhound and
         that none of us shall make any statement, oral or written, that is
         inconsistent with this understanding.
