     of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock
     of any corporation listed on a national securities exchange or publicly
     traded in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this
     Section 5.01.

          B. "Non-Compete Period" means the period commencing on the date of the
     consummation of the Merger and shall be in full force and effect at all

               (iii) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by the
          Employee for any reason other than for Good Reason prior to the end of
          Period 1, the Non-Compete Period shall end twelve (12) months after
          such date of termination.

               (iv) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by the
          Company for any reason after the end of Period 1 but prior to the end

     carrying out, directly or indirectly, any activity that would be prohibited
     by the above provisions of this Section 5.01 if such activity were carried
     out by the Employee, either directly or indirectly, and in particular the
     Employee agrees that she will not, directly or indirectly, induce or assist
     any employee or former employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
     (including Wasatch) to carry out, directly or indirectly, any such
     activity.

     5.02 COVENANT FOR PROTECTION OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.

                                     - 8 -

<PAGE>

          A. The Employee recognizes and acknowledges that: (a) in the course of
     the Employee's employment by Wasatch she has obtained Confidential
     Information (as hereafter defined) and that in the course of her employment
     hereunder she will acquire additional Confidential Information; (b) the
     Confidential Information is the property of the Company and its
     subsidiaries; (c) the use, misappropriation or disclosure of the
     Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust and could cause
     irreparable injury to the Company; and (d) it is essential to the
     protection of the Company's goodwill and to the maintenance of the
     Company's competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept
     secret and that the Employee not disclose the Confidential Information to
     others or use the Confidential Information to the Employee's own advantage
     or the advantage of others or in any way to disadvantage the Company.
     "Confidential Information" means information, whether or not reduced to
     writing, and whether in paper, electronic, digital, analog or other format,
     relating to the past, present or planned business of the Company and its
     subsidiaries (including Wasatch), which has not been made generally known
     to the public or the industry by the Company or its subsidiaries (including
     Wasatch), including, without limitation, trade secrets, know-how,
     inventions, new product and product development information, research
     results, marketing and sales programs, customer and supplier information,
     financial data, employee records, cost information, pricing information,
     sales and marketing strategies, business systems, computer systems,
     software, software systems and techniques, the identity of customers, all
     information received under an obligation of confidentiality to customers,
     and all information generated for customers

          B. NON-DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Employee agrees to
     hold and safeguard the Confidential Information in trust for the Company,
     its successors and assigns and agrees that she shall not, without the prior
     written consent of the Board, use for the Employee's own benefit or
     purposes or misappropriate or disclose or make available to any Person for
     use outside the Company's organization at any time, either during her
     employment with the Company or subsequent to the termination of her
     employment with the Company, for any reason, including, without limitation,
     termination by the Company for cause or without cause, any of the
     Confidential Information or any copy, notes or item embodying Confidential
     Information, whether or not developed by the Employee, except (a) as
     required in the performance of the Employee employment duties and as
     authorized by the Company and (b) to the extent that such information (i)
     is or becomes generally available to the public or the industry other than
     as a result of a disclosure by the Employee in violation of this Agreement,
     or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to a court order or other
     legal process (provided the Employee gives the Company notice of such
     obligation when the Employee receives notice of such obligation and prior
     to any disclosure pursuant to such obligation affords the Company the
     opportunity and cooperates with the Company in any efforts by the Company
     to limit the scope of such obligation and/or to obtain confidential
     treatment of any material disclosed pursuant to such obligation). The
     Employee agrees that her obligations with respect to Confidential
     Information shall continue even after termination of her employment with
     the Company.

          C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
     restrictions set forth in this Article 5 are reasonable in scope and
     essential to the preservation of the Company's business and proprietary
     properties and that enforcement of these restrictions will not cause
     Employee any hardship, and because of Employee's background and experience,
     will not in any manner preclude Employee, in the event of a termination of
     this Agreement, from becoming gainfully employed in such a manner and to
     such an extent as will provide a standard

                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>

     of living for herself and the members of her family of at least the sort
     and fashion to which she and they have become accustomed.

          D. SEPARATE AGREEMENT. The covenants of Employee contained in this
     Article 5 shall each be construed independently of any other provision in
     this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of
     Employee against Company whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise,
     shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Company of such
     covenants. This covenant may be enforced by specific performance or any
     available legal or equitable remedy, including, but not limited to,
     temporary restraining orders or preliminary and permanent injunctions, and
     the Company and its affiliated corporations shall be entitled to recover
     from Employee all court costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in
     enforcing this covenant. The remedies hereunder shall not be exclusive of
     each other, but shall be cumulative.

     5.03 AGREEMENT NOT TO SOLICIT BUSINESS RELATIONS. The Employee agrees that,
during the Term and Non-Compete Period, she will not, directly or indirectly, on
her own behalf or in the service or on behalf of others, solicit, divert or
appropriate, or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate any supplier,
licensor, licensee or other business relation of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries (including Wasatch) (including, without limitation, other Persons
with whom the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) has
contractual or other arrangements to provide services for the Company or any of
its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) who has been a supplier, licensor, licensee
or other business relation within the two (2) years prior to such termination of
employment or any prospective supplier, licensor, licensee or other business
relation with whom the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) or
any of their agents or representatives has had contact within the two (2) years
prior to such termination of employment for the purpose of inducing such party
to cease or to not begin doing business with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries (including Wasatch) or to do business competitive with that
conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) with any
other Person.

     5.04 AGREEMENT NOT TO SOLICIT EMPLOYEES. The Employee agrees that, during
the Non-Compete Period, she will not, either directly or indirectly, on her own
or in the service or on behalf of others solicit, divert or hire, or attempt to
solicit, divert or hire any Person employed by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries (including Wasatch).

     ARTICLE 6.0 - TERMINATION.

     6.01 GROUNDS FOR TERMINATION. The employment of the Employee shall
terminate prior to the expiration of the Term set forth in Article 2 in the
event that at any time during the Term:

          (a) the Employee shall die, or

          (b) the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good
     faith, that any of the following events or conditions has occurred or
     exists:

               (i) The Employee suffers a Disability (as hereinafter defined).
          For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee will be deemed to have a
          "Disability"

                                     - 10 -
<PAGE>

          if the Employee is adjudged mentally incompetent by a court of
          competent jurisdiction.

               (ii) Cause exists. "Cause" shall mean any of the following: (A)
          embezzlement, fraud, misappropriation or dishonesty by the Employee
          against or with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries
          (including Wasatch) or the conviction of any felony or other offense
          involving dishonesty, disloyalty, fraud or moral turpitude (or a plea
          of nolo contendere with respect to any such offense or felony); (B)
          the Employee's engaging in gross negligence or willful misconduct in
          the performance of the Employee employment duties; or (C) the breach
          by the Employee of any provision of this Agreement, in any material
          respect, which breach or failure is not cured by the Employee after
          reasonable prior written notice (provided, that any such notice also
          must include a statement that failure to cure any such breach or
          failure may result in the termination by the Company of the Employee's
          employment for Cause) or is not capable of being cured; or

          (c) written agreement of the Company and the Employee.

Notwithstanding any termination of employment pursuant to this Article 6, the
Employee, in consideration of her employment hereunder to the date of such
termination, shall remain bound following any such termination by the provisions
of this Agreement which specifically relate to periods, activities or
obligations upon or subsequent to the termination of the Employee's employment.

     ARTICLE 7.00 - GENERAL MATTERS

     7.01 CONFLICT. The Employee represents and warrants to Company that she has
not executed any written agreement with any other Person that would prohibit the
Employee from entering into this Agreement. Further, the Employee represents and
warrants to Company that the execution of this Agreement by the Employee and her
services rendered to Company pursuant to this Agreement will not conflict with
any obligations or duties which the Employee may have to prior employers or
pursuant to any other agreement.

     7.02 NON-DISCLOSURE OF AGREEMENT. The Employee and the Company agree that,
during the term of this Agreement and after the termination of this Agreement,
neither shall disclose the terms and provisions of this Agreement to any Person
other than their professional advisors, and in the case of the Company, other
than to its affiliates, except in connection with a dispute hereunder, or as
required in connection with a proceeding before a court, arbitrator,
administrative agency or other governmental or judicial entity or as otherwise
required by law.

     7.03 ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in
part, by either party without the written consent of the other party, except
that the Company may, without the consent of the Employee, assign its rights and
delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any Person (a) with or into
which the Company merges or consolidates, (b) to which the Company sells or
transfers all or substantially all of its assets or (c) of which fifty percent
(50%) or more of the equity investment and the voting control is owned, directly
or indirectly, by, or is

                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>

under common ownership with, the Company. After any such assignment by the
Company, 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 7.03.

     7.04 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each party agrees that it would be difficult to
compensate the other party fully for damages for any violation of the provisions
of this Agreement, including without limitation, the provisions of Articles 3
and 5. Accordingly, each party specifically agrees that the other party shall be
entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief to enforce the provisions
of this Agreement, without the posting of any bond. This provision with respect
to injunctive relief shall not, however, diminish the right of either party to
claim and recover damages in addition to injunctive relief.

     7.05 GOVERNING LAW. THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND EFFECT OF THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF UTAH,
EXCLUDING THE "CONFLICT OF LAWS" RULES THEREOF.

     7.06 PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement, at the Effective Time, shall contain
the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
shall at such time supersede all prior agreements, including the Prior
Agreement, and understandings with respect to such subject matter, and the
parties hereto have made no agreement, representations or warranties relating to
the subject matter of this Agreement which are not set forth herein.

     7.07 AMENDMENTS. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be
deemed effective unless made in writing signed by the parties hereto.

     7.08 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 constitute a waiver of
such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that
specifically waived.

     7.09 SEVERABILITY. To the extent any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalid or unenforceable, it shall be considered deleted herefrom and the
remainder of such provision and of this Agreement shall be unaffected and shall
continue in full force and effect. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, should the duration or geographical extent of, or business activities
covered by any provision of this Agreement be in excess of that which is valid
and enforceable under applicable law, then such provision shall be construed to
cover only that duration, extent or activities which may validly and enforceably
be covered. The parties acknowledge the uncertainty of the law in this respect
and expressly stipulate that this Agreement shall be given the construction
which renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not
exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law.

     7.10 NOTICE. A. All notices or other communications required or permitted
by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly

     ARTICLE 4.0 COMPENSATION UPON THE TERMINATION OF THE EMPLOYEE'S EMPLOYMENT

     4.01 If prior to the end of Period 1 the Employee's services hereunder are
terminated:

               A. by the Company for any reason other than pursuant to Section
          6.01, or by the Employee for Good Reason (as hereafter defined), the
          Employee shall be entitled to her Base Salary for each of Period 1 (or
          any pro rata portion thereof) and Period 2 and any Period 1 Bonus
          Payment, subject to the terms herein; or

               B. by the Employee for any reason other than for Good Reason or
          by the Company pursuant to Section 6.01, the Employee shall not be
          entitled to her Base Salary for either Period 1 (or any pro rata
          portion thereof) or Period 2, or any other compensation, subject to
          the terms herein.

     4.02 If after the end of Period 1 but prior to the end of Period 2 the
Employee's services hereunder are terminated:

               A. by the Company for any reason other than pursuant to Section
          6.01, or by the Employee for Good Reason, the Employee shall be
          entitled to her Base Salary for the one-year period following the date
          of any such termination and if such termination occurs after July 31,
          2002, she shall also be entitled to her pro rata share of any Period 2
          Bonus Payment; or

               B. by the Employee for any reason other than for Good Reason, or
          by the Company pursuant to Section 6.01, the Employee shall not be
          entitled to any other compensation, subject to the terms herein.

Any such termination of the Employee's services hereunder must be preceded by
sixty (60) days written notice to the non-terminating party in accordance with
the terms herein.

     4.03 A termination shall be deemed to be for "Good Reason" if (i) it
follows a material reduction of the Employee's duties and responsibilities or a
permanent change in the Employee's duties and responsibilities, in any case,
which are materially inconsistent with the duties and responsibilities of the
Employee then in effect, (ii) the Employee is required to relocate the office
from which she performs her responsibilities to an office that is located more
than 60 miles outside of the City of Salt Lake City, (iii) it follows a material
breach of this Agreement (which shall include, without limitation, a reduction
in the Employee's annual base salary) by the Company which is not curable, or if
curable, is not cured within 30 days of written notice by the Employee
(provided, that any such notice also must include a statement that failure to
cure any such breach may result in a termination by the Employee of her
employment for Good Reason) or (iv) the Board of Directors of the Company
otherwise determines that such termination is for "Good Reason" under the
circumstances then prevailing.

     4.04 If the Employee's services are terminated for any reason, the Employee
also shall be entitled to (a) any benefits mandated under the Consolidated
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA") or required under the terms
of any death, insurance or retirement plan, program or agreement provided by the
Company and to which the Employee is a party or in

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

which the Employee is a participant, including, but not limited to, any
short-term or long-term disability plan or program, if applicable, and (b) any
reimbursement owed to her by the Company in accordance with Section 3.04 for
expenses incurred through the date of termination.

     ARTICLE 5.00 - COVENANTS

     5.01 COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE.

               A. The Employee acknowledges that the Company and its
          subsidiaries are engaged in highly competitive businesses and have a
          compelling business interest in preventing unauthorized use or
          disclosure of Confidential Information, that the Company and its
          subsidiaries have highly valuable and long-term customer relationships
          which they have a legitimate interest in protecting, and that the
          Employee has had and may continue to have access to those customers
          and has had and will have access to Confidential Information.
          Accordingly, the Employee agrees that, during the Non-Compete Period
          (as defined below), she shall not engage or participate as an owner,
          principal, partner, officer or director in any business which is
          competitive with the business of the Company and its subsidiaries as
          conducted (or contemplated to be conducted) on the date of termination
          of her employment, including, without limitation, such business that
          is conducted in any geographic area in which the Company's and its
          subsidiaries, business is conducted (or contemplated to be conducted);
          provided, however, that ownership by the Employee, as a passive
          investment, of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares
          of capital stock of any corporation listed on a national securities
          exchange or publicly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not
          constitute a breach of this Section 5.01.

               B. "Non-Compete Period" means the period commencing on the date
          of the consummation of the Merger and shall be in full force and
          effect at all times the Employee is employed by the Company without
          limitation and shall end in accordance with the terms hereof.

                    (i) If at any time the Employee's services hereunder are
               terminated by the Employee for Good Reason, the Non-Compete
               Period shall end on the date of such termination.

                    (ii) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by
               the Company for any reason prior to the end of Period 1, the
               Non-Compete Period shall end at the end of Period 2.

                    (iii) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by
               the Employee for any reason other than for Good Reason prior to
               the end of Period 1, the Non-Compete Period shall end twelve (12)
               months after such date of termination.

                    (iv) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by
               the Company for any reason after the end of Period 1 but prior to
               the end of Period 2,

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

               the Non-Compete Period shall end at twelve (12) months after such
               date of termination.

                    (v) If the Employee's services hereunder are terminated by
               the Employee for any reason other than for Good Reason after the
               end of Period 1 but prior to the end of Period 2, the Non-Compete
               Period shall end on the date of such termination.

          C. The Employee further agrees that during the Non-Compete Period, she
     will not, directly or indirectly, assist or encourage any other Person in
     carrying out, directly or indirectly, any activity that would be prohibited
     by the above provisions of this Section 5.01 if such activity were carried
     out by the Employee, either directly or indirectly, and in particular the
     Employee agrees that she will not, directly or indirectly, induce or assist
     any employee or former employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
     (including Wasatch) to carry out, directly or indirectly, any such
     activity.

     5.02 COVENANT FOR PROTECTION OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.

          A. The Employee recognizes and acknowledges that: (a) in the course of
     the Employee's employment by Wasatch she has obtained Confidential
     Information (as hereafter defined) and that in the course of her employment
     hereunder she will acquire additional Confidential Information; (b) the
     Confidential Information is the property of the Company and its
     subsidiaries; (c) the use, misappropriation or disclosure of the
     Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust and could cause
     irreparable injury to the Company; and (d) it is essential to the
     protection of the Company's goodwill and to the maintenance of the
     Company's competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept
     secret and that the Employee not disclose the Confidential Information to
     others or use the Confidential Information to the Employee's own advantage
     or the advantage of others or in any way to disadvantage the Company.
     "Confidential Information" means information, whether or not reduced to
     writing, and whether in paper, electronic, digital, analog or other format,
     relating to the past, present or planned business of the Company and its
     subsidiaries (including Wasatch), which has not been made generally known
     to the public or the industry by the Company or its subsidiaries (including
     Wasatch), including, without limitation, trade secrets, know-how,
     inventions, new product and product development information, research
     results, marketing and sales programs, customer and supplier information,
     financial data, employee records, cost information, pricing information,
     sales and marketing strategies, business systems, computer systems,
     software, software systems and techniques, the identity of customers, all
     information received under an obligation of confidentiality to customers,
     and all information generated for customers

          B. NON-DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Employee agrees to
     hold and safeguard the Confidential Information in trust for the Company,
     its successors and assigns and agrees that she shall not, without the prior
     written consent of the Board, use for the Employee's own benefit or
     purposes or misappropriate or disclose or make available to any Person for
     use outside the Company's organization at any time, either during her
     employment with the Company or subsequent to the termination of her
     employment with the Company, for any reason, including, without limitation,
     termination by the Company for cause or without cause, any of the
     Confidential Information or any copy, notes or item embodying

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

     Confidential Information, whether or not developed by the Employee, except
     (a) as required in the performance of the Employee employment duties and as
     authorized by the Company and (b) to the extent that such information (i)
     is or becomes generally available to the public or the industry other than
     as a result of a disclosure by the Employee in violation of this Agreement,
     or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to a court order or other
     legal process (provided the Employee gives the Company notice of such
     obligation when the Employee receives notice of such obligation and prior
     to any disclosure pursuant to such obligation affords the Company the
     opportunity and cooperates with the Company in any efforts by the Company
     to limit the scope of such obligation and/or to obtain confidential
     treatment of any material disclosed pursuant to such obligation). The
     Employee agrees that her obligations with respect to Confidential
     Information shall continue even after termination of her employment with
     the Company.

          C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
     restrictions set forth in this Article 5 are reasonable in scope and
     essential to the preservation of the Company's business --------- and
     proprietary properties and that enforcement of these restrictions will not
     cause Employee any hardship, and because of Employee's background and
     experience, will not in any manner preclude Employee, in the event of a
     termination of this Agreement, from becoming gainfully employed in such a
     manner and to such an extent as will provide a standard of living for
     herself and the members of her family of at least the sort and fashion to
     which she and they have become accustomed.

          D. SEPARATE AGREEMENT. The covenants of Employee contained in this
     Article 5 shall each be construed independently of any other provision in
     this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of
     Employee against Company whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise,
     shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Company of such
     covenants. This covenant may be enforced by specific performance or any
     available legal or equitable remedy, including, but not limited to,
     temporary restraining orders or preliminary and permanent injunctions, and
     the Company and its affiliated corporations shall be entitled to recover
     from Employee all court costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in
     enforcing this covenant. The remedies hereunder shall not be exclusive of
     each other, but shall be cumulative.

          5.03 AGREEMENT NOT TO SOLICIT BUSINESS RELATIONS. The Employee agrees
     that, during the Term and Non-Compete Period, she will not, directly or
     indirectly, on her own behalf or in the service or on behalf of others,
     solicit, divert or appropriate, or attempt to solicit, divert or
     appropriate any supplier, licensor, licensee or other business relation of
     the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) (including,
     without limitation, other Persons with whom the Company or any of its
     subsidiaries (including Wasatch) has contractual or other arrangements to
     provide services for the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including
     Wasatch) who has been a supplier, licensor, licensee or other business
     relation within the two (2) years prior to such termination of employment
     or any prospective supplier, licensor, licensee or other business relation
     with whom the Company or any of its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) or any
     of their agents or representatives has had contact within the two (2) years
     prior to such termination of employment for the purpose of inducing such
     party to cease or to not begin doing business with the Company or any of
     its subsidiaries (including Wasatch) or to do business

     ARTICLE 6.0 - TERMINATION.

     6.01 GROUNDS FOR TERMINATION. The employment of the Employee shall
terminate prior to the expiration of the Term set forth in Article 2 in the
event that at any time during the Term: ---------

          (a) the Employee shall die, or

          (b) the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good
     faith, that any of the following events or conditions has occurred or
     exists:

               (i) The Employee suffers a Disability (as hereinafter defined).
          For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee will be deemed to have a
          "Disability" if the Employee is adjudged mentally incompetent by a
          court of competent jurisdiction.

               (ii) Cause exists. "Cause" shall mean any of the following: (A)
          embezzlement, fraud, misappropriation or dishonesty by the Employee
          against or with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries
          (including Wasatch) or the conviction of any felony or other offense
          involving dishonesty, disloyalty, fraud or moral turpitude (or a plea
          of nolo contendere with respect to any such offense or felony); (B)
          the Employee's engaging in gross negligence or willful misconduct in
          the performance of the Employee employment duties; or (C) the breach
          by the Employee of any provision of this Agreement, in any material
          respect, which breach or failure is not cured by the Employee after
          reasonable prior written notice (provided, that any such notice also
          must include a statement that failure to cure any such breach or
          failure may result in the termination by the Company of the Employee's
          employment for Cause) or is not capable of being cured; or

          (c) written agreement of the Company and the Employee.

Notwithstanding any termination of employment pursuant to this Article 6, the
Employee, in consideration of her employment hereunder to the date of such
termination, shall remain bound following any such termination by the provisions
of this Agreement which specifically relate to periods, activities or
obligations upon or subsequent to the termination of the Employee's employment.

     ARTICLE 7.00 - GENERAL MATTERS

     7.01 CONFLICT. The Employee represents and warrants to Company that she has
not executed any written agreement with any other Person that would prohibit the
Employee from entering into this Agreement. Further, the Employee represents and
warrants to Company that the execution of this Agreement by the Employee and her
services rendered to Company pursuant to this Agreement will not conflict with
any obligations or duties which the Employee may have to prior employers or
pursuant to any other agreement.

     7.02 NON-DISCLOSURE OF AGREEMENT. The Employee and the Company agree that,
during the term of this Agreement and after the termination of this Agreement,
neither shall disclose the terms and provisions of this Agreement to any Person
other than their professional advisors, and in the case of the Company, other
than to its affiliates, except in connection with a dispute hereunder, or as
required in connection with a proceeding before a court, arbitrator,
administrative agency or other governmental or judicial entity or as otherwise
required by law.

     7.03 ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in
part, by either party without the written consent of the other party, except
that the Company may, without the consent of the Employee, assign its rights and
delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any Person (a) with or into
which the Company merges or consolidates, (b) to which the Company sells or
transfers all or substantially all of its assets or (c) of which fifty percent
(50%) or more of the equity investment and the voting control is owned, directly
or indirectly, by, or is under common ownership with, the Company. After any
such assignment by the Company, 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 7.03.

     7.04 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each party agrees that it would be difficult to
compensate the other party fully for damages for any violation of the provisions
of this Agreement, including without limitation, the provisions of Articles 3
and 5. Accordingly, each party specifically agrees that the other party shall be
entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief to enforce the provisions
of this Agreement, without the posting of any bond. This provision with respect
to injunctive relief shall not, however, diminish the right of either party to
claim and recover damages in addition to injunctive relief.

     7.05 GOVERNING LAW. THE VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND EFFECT OF THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF UTAH,
EXCLUDING THE "CONFLICT OF LAWS" RULES THEREOF.

     7.06 PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement, at the Effective Time, shall contain
the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
shall at such time supersede all prior agreements, including the Prior
Agreement, and understandings with respect to such subject matter, and the
parties hereto have made no agreement, representations or warranties relating to
the subject matter of this Agreement which are not set forth herein.

     7.07 AMENDMENTS. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be
deemed effective unless made in writing signed by the parties hereto.

     7.08 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 constitute a waiver of
such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that
specifically waived.

     7.09 SEVERABILITY. To the extent any provision of this Agreement shall be
invalid or unenforceable, it shall be considered deleted herefrom and the
remainder of such provision and of this Agreement shall be unaffected and shall
continue in full force and effect. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, should the duration or geographical extent of, or business activities
covered by any provision of this Agreement be in excess of that which is valid
and enforceable under applicable law, then such provision shall be construed to
cover only that duration, extent or activities which may validly and enforceably
be covered. The parties acknowledge the uncertainty of the law in this respect
and expressly stipulate that this Agreement shall be given the construction
which renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not
exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law.

     7.10 NOTICE. A. All notices or other communications required or permitted
by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly

telephonic confirmation received if transmitted on a business day and during
normal business hours of the recipient, and otherwise on the next business day
following transmission, and (ii) if given by certified or registered mail,
return receipt requested, postage prepaid, upon actual delivery or refusal of
delivery as evidenced by the return receipt, and (iii) if given by courier or
other means, when received or personally delivered (or when delivery is refused,
