2004, by and between Global Payment Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation,
with executive offices at 425B Oser Avenue, Hauppauge, New York, 11788 (the
"Company"), and Thomas McNeill, residing at 32 Seneca Drive, Commack, New York
11725 (the "Executive").

                                   WITNESSETH

         WHEREAS, Executive is Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company;

         WHEREAS, Executive is presently employed by the Company pursuant to
that certain Employment Agreement between the parties dated May 1, 2000 (the
"Old Employment Agreement"); and

         WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to terminate the Old
Employment Agreement and enter into a new agreement based on the terms and
conditions set forth below;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.   TERMINATION OF OLD EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         The Company and Executive agree that the Old Employment Agreement shall
be terminated concurrently with the execution of this Agreement and shall be of
no further force or effect. Each of the parties hereto waives and releases all
rights he or it may have under the Old Employment Agreement as of the date
hereof.

2.   EMPLOYMENT

         2.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company
agrees to employ Executive as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company with responsibility for the performance of such duties, consistent with
such positions and the By-Laws of the Company, as may be from time to time be
assigned to him by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of
Directors") or its Chief Executive Officer. The Executive shall have the duties
and responsibilities normally inherent in such capacity in public corporations
of similar size and character. Executive hereby accepts such employment.

         2.2 The term of this Agreement shall commence on the effective date of
this Agreement, and shall continue until the first anniversary of such date (the
"Initial Term"), unless earlier terminated as hereinafter provided. This
Agreement shall automatically renew for consecutive periods of one year (each,
an "Additional Term"), unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal
to the other party hereto 180 days prior to the termination of the Initial Term
or any Additional Term as the case may be. The period of Executive's employment
hereunder shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Employment Term."

                                                                    Exhibit 10.5

         2.3 Throughout the Employment Term, Executive shall devote his best
efforts and all of his business time, attention and skills to the business and
affairs of the Company.

3.   SALARY

         Effective on the commencement of the Employment Term, Executive shall
receive a Base Salary ("Base Salary") at the rate of $166,000 per year, less
applicable withholdings and deductions, payable in accordance with the Company's
regular payroll practices for senior executives of the Company. The Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee thereof shall review such Base Salary,
upon the earlier to occur of: (i) generation by the Company of pre-tax monthly
profits of at least $100,000 (the "Required Profits") for a period of three (3)
consecutive months (the "Measuring Period"); or (ii) the one year anniversary of
the execution of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 3, whether the
Company has generated the Required Profits for the Measuring Period shall be
determined by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Audit
Committee") in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")
consistently applied to the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2003 unless a change in such principles is recommended by
the Company's independent certified public accountants as being required under
GAAP, upon written application by Executive. The Audit Committee shall render
its determination within a reasonable time following Executive's written
application. If the Audit Committee determines that the Company has generated
the Required Profits during the Measuring Period, the Board of Directors or the
Compensation Committee thereof shall determine whether and, if so, by how much
Executive's Base Salary shall increase as contemplated in this Section 3. Any
such increase shall be effective the first day of the first month following the
conclusion of the Measuring Period, but such Base Salary may not be decreased.

4.   ANNUAL BONUS

         During each year of the Employment Term, Executive shall be eligible to
receive a discretionary bonus (the "Discretionary Bonus"). Whether such
Discretionary Bonus shall be granted to the Executive, and, if granted, the
timing, amount and manner of payment of such Discretionary Bonus shall be
determined at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company's Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee thereof.

5.   INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

         During the Employment Term, Executive shall be eligible, in a manner
equal to that of the Company's other senior executives, to receive grants of
stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock. All of such
options shall be granted under one or more of the stock option plans of the
Company (the "Plan"). All of such options shall be subject to the terms and
conditions specified in the Plan and in any agreements entered into by the
Company and Executive with respect thereto.

6.   TERMINATION UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS

         Except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, in the event that
Executive's employment is terminated by the Company other than for "Cause" (as
hereinafter defined) or Executive terminates his employment for "Good Reason"
(as hereinafter defined) prior to the end of the Employment Term, Executive
shall be entitled to receive in lieu of any and all other payments, a severance
payment in an aggregate amount equal to (1) Executive's yearly Base Salary in
effect on the date of his termination multiplied by .75 (i.e. for each $1.00 of
Base Salary Executive would receive $0.75) plus (2) an amount equal to the
Discretionary Bonus, if any, projected by the Board of Directors for the fiscal
year in which termination occurs (subject to the terms and conditions of Section
4), and, in the case of the Discretionary Bonus only, pro rated by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the actual number of days elapsed in the current
fiscal year and denominator of which shall be 365. If the Company notifies the
Executive of its intention not to renew this Agreement as provided in Section
2.2 and if Executive is still employed by the Company at the end of the
Employment Term, then Executive shall be entitled to receive in lieu of any and
all other payments, a severance payment in an aggregate amount equal to (1)
Executive's yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination
multiplied by .4167 (i.e., for each $1.00 of Base Salary Executive would receive
$0.4167 plus (2) an amount equal to the Discretionary Bonus, if any, projected
by the Board of Directors for the fiscal year in which termination occurs
(subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4), and, in the case of the
Discretionary Bonus only, pro rated by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the actual number of days elapsed in the current fiscal year and denominator
of which shall be 365. Any payment provided to Executive under the terms of this
Section 6 is referred to herein as a "Severance Payment". The Severance Payment
shall be payable to Executive in equal installments in accordance with the
Company's normal payroll practices as if Executive were still employed by the
Company over a period of five (5) months without regard to who terminates the
Executive's employment or for what reason. In addition to the Severance Payment,
Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits set forth in Section 7.1 on
terms and conditions no less favorable to the Executive than those in effect
immediately prior to the Executive's termination during the period that the
Severance Payment is payable to him.

7.   CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

         7.1 During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to
participate, to the extent Executive is eligible under the terms and conditions
thereof, in any benefit plans which the Company may from time to time provide to
its senior executives during the Employment Term. Unless otherwise specifically
set forth herein, the Company shall be under no obligation to institute or
thereafter continue the existence of any such benefit plan.

         7.2 The Company currently has directors and officers liability
insurance. The Company covenants that Executive shall be covered under such
policy through the Employment Term, and thereafter with respect to matters
occurring during the Employment Term.

         7.3 Executive shall be entitled to four weeks of vacation per year, in
accordance with existing policies of the Company.

         ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
         Exchange Act) of 50% or more (on a fully diluted basis) of either (i)
         the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, taking into
         account as outstanding for this purpose such common stock issuable upon
         the exercise of options or warrants, the conversion of convertible
         stock or debt, and the exercise of any similar right to acquire such
         common stock (the "Outstanding Company Common Stock") or (ii) the
         combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the
         Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the
         "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that for
         purposes of this subsection (a), the following acquisitions shall not
         constitute a Change of Control: (w) any acquisition by the Company or
         any "affiliate" of the Company, within the meaning of 17 C.F.R. &
         230.405 (an "Affiliate"), (x) any acquisition by any employee benefit
         plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any

         the Board of Directors (the "Incumbent Board") ceasing for any reason
         to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors; provided,
         however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to such
         effective date whose election, or nomination for election by the
         Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority
         of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be
         considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
         Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose
         initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or
         threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of
         directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or
         consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board of Directors;
         or

              (c) Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or
         sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of
         the Company (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless, following
         such Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the
         individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively,
         of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
         Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially
         own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of, respectively, the then
         outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the
         then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the
         election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting
         from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a

         corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or
         all or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or
         though one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions
         as their ownership of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and
         Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, immediately
         prior to such Business Combination, and (ii) no Person (excluding any
         employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the
         Company, any Affiliate of the Company, the corporation resulting from
         such Business Combination or any Affiliate of such corporation)
         beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more (on a fully
         diluted basis) of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the
         corporation resulting from such Business Combination, taking into
         account as outstanding for this purpose such common stock issuable upon
         the exercise of options or warrants, the conversion of convertible
         stock or debt, and the exercise of any similar right to acquire such
         common stock, or the combined voting power of the then outstanding
         voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such
         ownership existed prior to the Business Combination and (iii) at least
         a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation
         resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent
         Board at the time of the execution of this Agreement or of the action
         of the Board of Directors providing for such Business Combination; or

              (d) Approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete
         liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

writing no later than 10 days prior to a Change of Control whether it desires
Executive to remain employed for a maximum of six months following the Change of
Control (the "Transition Period"). If Executive is notified that it is not
desired that he remain employed following the Change of Control, or if no such
notice is given or the notice references a transition period of more than six
months, Executive shall have the right to voluntarily terminate his employment
during the 60-day period following the Change of Control and, subject to Section
8.4 below, such termination shall be deemed to have occurred for Good Reason for
purposes of this Agreement.

         8.3 If Executive is properly notified that the Company or its successor
or purchaser desires Executive to remain employed for a Transition Period, and
if Executive remains employed for the Transition Period, then Executive shall
have the right to voluntarily terminate his employment during the 60-day period
following the end of the Transition Period and, subject to Section 8.4 below,
such termination shall be deemed to have occurred for Good Reason for purposes
of this Agreement. Any termination of Executive's employment by Executive prior
to the end of the Transition Period shall not be considered termination for Good
Reason.

         8.4 If, within one year following a Change of Control, Executive's
employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause, or Executive

circumstances described in Section 8.2 and 8.3), (i) if the price per share of
the Company's common stock paid to the Company's stockholders by the acquirer of
the Company is $4.00 or greater, Executive shall, in lieu of any amounts payable
to Executive under Section 6, receive an aggregate payment equal to (a)
Executive's yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination (i.e.
for each $1.00 of Base Salary Executive would receive $1.00), plus (b) an amount
equal to the Discretionary Bonus paid to Executive for the fiscal year
immediately preceding the fiscal year in which termination occurs, and, in the
case of the Discretionary Bonus only, pro rated by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the actual number of days elapsed in the current fiscal year and

the denominator of which shall be 365 (the amount calculated under (b) shall be
referred to herein as the "Termination Bonus"), the aggregate of such payments
to be made to Executive in a lump sum no later than five days following his
termination; (ii) if the price per share of the Company's common stock paid to
the Company's stockholders by the acquirer of the Company is greater than $2.99
but less than $4.00, Executive shall, in lieu of any amounts payable to
Executive under Section 6, receive an aggregate payment equal to (a) Executive's
yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination multiplied by .75
(i.e. for each $1.00 of Base Salary Executive would receive $.75) plus (b) the
Termination Bonus, the aggregate of such payments to be made to Executive in a
lump sum no later than five days following his termination; (iii) if the price
per share of the Company's common stock paid to the Company's stockholders by
the acquirer of the Company is $2.99 or less, Executive shall, in lieu of any
amounts payable to Executive under Section 6, receive an aggregate payment equal
to (a) Executive's yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination
multiplied by .50 (i.e., for each $1.00 of Base Salary Executive would receive
$.50), plus (b) the Termination Bonus, the aggregate of such payments to be made
to Executive in a lump sum no later than five days following his termination;
and (iv) in the event that a Change of Control occurs other than by a Person
purchasing the shares of the Company's common stock from the Company's
stockholders, Executive shall, in lieu of any amounts payable to Executive under
Section 6, receive an aggregate payment equal to (a) Executive's yearly Base
Salary in effect on the date of his termination (i.e. for each $1.00 of Base
Salary Executive would receive $1.00) plus (b) the Termination Bonus, the
aggregate of such payments to be made to Executive in a lump sum no later than
five days following his termination. In addition to the payments provided in
this Section 8.4, Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits set forth
in Section 7.1 for six, nine or twelve months following such termination, on
terms and conditions no less favorable to the Executive than those in effect
immediately prior to the Executive's termination, the duration of such benefits
to be twelve months if his Base Salary (as above provided) is multiplied by 1.0,
nine months if his Base Salary (as above provided) is multiplied by .75 or six
months otherwise.

9.   TERMINATION FOR GOOD REASON

         9.1 Executive may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason at
any time during the Employment Term, in which event Executive shall resign from
all of his positions with the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good
Reason" shall mean the Executive's good faith determination that any of the
following has occurred (without Executive's express prior written consent).

              (i) The assignment to Executive by the Company of duties
     inconsistent with those of a Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
     (including status, titles, offices and lines of reporting), except in
     connection with the termination of Executive's employment for Cause (in
     accordance with Section 10 hereof), disability (as defined in Section

     Agreement.

10.  DISCHARGE FOR CAUSE

payments to Executive shall thereupon cease and terminate except for any
obligations accrued but which remain unpaid.

Executive involving willful malfeasance or gross negligence having an adverse
effect on the Company, or (b) failure to act by Executive involving material
malfeasance or gross negligence having an adverse effect on the Company provided
that any action or failure to act by Executive shall not constitute "Cause" if,
in good faith, Executive believed such action or failure to act to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Company, or if Executive shall be entitled,
under applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the
Company, to be indemnified with respect to such action or failure to act, (c) in
the event Employer makes a good faith determination that Executive is so
disabled, for mental or physical reasons, that Executive is unable to

view of the Company, is necessary and proper to more fully effectuate the
provisions of this Section 12.5. All expenses in connection with the obligations
of Executive under this Section 12.5 shall be borne by the Company or its
nominee.

         12.6 Records. During the period of his employment by the Company,
Executive shall make and maintain adequate and current written records of all
Inventions, in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and/or reports relating
thereto, which records shall be and shall remain the property of the Company and
shall be available to the Company at all times. Upon termination of the

notebooks and other materials which refer or relate to any aspect of the
business which are in the possession of Executive, including all copies thereof,
shall be promptly returned to the Company.

         12.7 Injunctive Relief, etc. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and
agree that (i) the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach
by Executive of any of his obligations under this Section 12, (ii) monetary
damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach, and (iii) the
Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy
which it may have, in the event of any such breach. It is hereby also agreed
that the existence of any claims which Executive may have against the Company or
its subsidiaries, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, shall not be a
defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of its rights under this
Section 12.

         12.8 Scope of Restriction. It is the intent of the parties hereto that
the covenants contained in this Section 12 shall be enforced to the fullest
extent permissible under the laws and public policies of each jurisdiction in
which enforcement is sought (Executive hereby acknowledging that said
restrictions are reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company).
Accordingly, it is hereby agreed that if any of the provisions of this Section
12 shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason
whatsoever, said provision shall be (only with respect to the operation thereof
in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) construed by
limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent permissible,
without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the
validity or enforceability of said provision in any other jurisdiction.

         12.9 Nonexclusivity. The undertakings of Executive contained in this
Section 12 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any obligations which he
may have with respect to the subject matter hereof, whether by contract, as a
matter of law or otherwise.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"),  effective as of April 5,
2004, by and between Global Payment Technologies,  Inc., a Delaware corporation,
with  executive  offices at 425B Oser Avenue,  Hauppauge,  New York,  11788 (the
"Company"),  and Thomas  Oliveri,  residing at 19 Arcadia Drive,  Dix Hills,  NY
11746 (the "Executive").

                                   WITNESSETH

         WHEREAS,  Executive is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company;

         WHEREAS,  Executive  is presently  employed by the Company  pursuant to
that certain  Employment  Agreement  between the parties dated July 1, 2001 (the
"Old Employment Agreement"); and

         WHEREAS,  the  Company  and  Executive  desire  to  terminate  the  Old
Employment  Agreement  and  enter  into a new  agreement  based on the terms and
conditions set forth below;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.   TERMINATION OF OLD EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         The Company and Executive agree that the Old Employment Agreement shall
be terminated  concurrently with the execution of this Agreement and shall be of
no further force or effect.  Each of the parties  hereto waives and releases all
rights  he or it may have  under  the Old  Employment  Agreement  as of the date
hereof.

2.   EMPLOYMENT

         2.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,  the Company
agrees to employ  Executive as the President and Chief Executive  Officer of the
Company with responsibility for the performance of such duties,  consistent with
such  positions  and the By-Laws of the Company,  as may be from time to time be
assigned  to him by the  Board  of  Directors  of the  Company  (the  "Board  of
Directors").  In such  capacity,  the  Executive  shall be the  highest  ranking
officer of the Company and shall have the duties and  responsibilities  normally
inherent in such capacity in public  corporations of similar size and character.
Executive hereby accepts such employment.

         2.2 The term of this Agreement  shall commence on the effective date of
this  Agreement,  and shall continue  until the second  anniversary of such date
(the "Initial Term"),  unless earlier terminated as hereinafter  provided.  This
Agreement shall  automatically  renew for consecutive periods of one year (each,
an "Additional  Term"),  unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal
to the other party hereto 180 days prior to the  termination of the Initial Term
or any Additional Term as the case may be. The period of Executive's  employment
hereunder shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Employment Term."

                                                                    Exhibit 10.6

         2.3  Throughout the Employment  Term,  Executive  shall devote his best
efforts and all of his business  time,  attention and skills to the business and
affairs of the Company.

3.   SALARY

         Effective on the commencement of the Employment  Term,  Executive shall
receive a Base Salary  ("Base  Salary") at the rate of $200,000  per year,  less
applicable withholdings and deductions, payable in accordance with the Company's
regular payroll practices for senior executives of the Company. Such Base Salary
shall increase to the rate of $225,000 per year,  less  applicable  withholdings
and  deductions,  upon the earlier to occur of: (i) generation by the Company of
pre-tax  monthly  profits of at least  $100,000 (the  "Required  Profits") for a
period of three (3) consecutive months (the "Measuring Period"); or (ii) the one
year  anniversary  of the  execution  of this  Agreement.  For  purposes of this
Section 3,  whether the  Company  has  generated  the  Required  Profits for the
Measuring  Period  shall be  determined  by the Audit  Committee of the Board of
Directors  (the  "Audit   Committee")  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles ("GAAP")  consistently applied to the Company's financial
statements for the fiscal year ended  September 30, 2003 unless a change in such
principles  is  recommended  by  the  Company's   independent  certified  public
accountants as being required under GAAP, upon written application by Executive.
The Audit  Committee  shall render its  determination  within a reasonable  time
following  Executive's written  application.  If the Audit Committee  determines
that the Company has generated the Required Profits during the Measuring Period,
Executive's  Base  Salary  shall  increase  as  contemplated  in this  Section 3
effective  the first day of the first  month  following  the  conclusion  of the
Measuring Period.

4.   ANNUAL BONUS

         During each year of the Employment Term, Executive shall be eligible to
receive  a  discretionary  bonus  (the  "Discretionary  Bonus").   Whether  such
Discretionary  Bonus shall be granted to the  Executive,  and,  if granted,  the
timing,  amount  and  manner of payment  of such  Discretionary  Bonus  shall be
determined  at the  sole  and  absolute  discretion  of the  Company's  Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee thereof.

5.   INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

         During the Employment  Term,  Executive shall be eligible,  in a manner
equal to that of the Company's  other senior  executives,  to receive  grants of
stock  options to purchase  shares of the Company's  common  stock.  All of such
options  shall be  granted  under one or more of the stock  option  plans of the
Company  (the  "Plan").  All of such  options  shall be subject to the terms and
conditions  specified  in the Plan  and in any  agreements  entered  into by the
Company and Executive with respect thereto.

6.   TERMINATION UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS

         Except as  otherwise  provided  in Section 8 hereof,  in the event that
Executive's  employment  is terminated by the Company other than for "Cause" (as
hereinafter  defined) or Executive  terminates  his employment for "Good Reason"
(as  hereinafter  defined)  prior to the end of the Employment  Term,  Executive
shall be entitled to receive in lieu of any and all other payments,  a severance
payment in an aggregate  amount equal to (1)  Executive's  yearly Base Salary in
effect on the date of his termination  multiplied by 1.5 (i.e. for each $1.00 of
Base Salary  Executive  would  receive  $1.50)  plus (2) an amount  equal to the
Discretionary  Bonus, if any, projected by the Board of Directors for the fiscal
year in which termination occurs (subject to the terms and conditions of Section
4), and, in the case of the  Discretionary  Bonus only, pro rated by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the actual number of days elapsed in the current
fiscal year and  denominator of which shall be 365. If the Company  notifies the
Executive of its  intention  not to renew this  Agreement as provided in Section
2.2  and if  Executive  is  still  employed  by the  Company  at the  end of the
Employment  Term, then Executive shall be entitled to receive in lieu of any and
all other  payments,  a severance  payment in an  aggregate  amount equal to (1)
Executive's yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination plus (2)
an amount equal to the  Discretionary  Bonus, if any,  projected by the Board of
Directors for the fiscal year in which termination  occurs (subject to the terms
and conditions of Section 4), and, in the case of the Discretionary  Bonus only,
pro rated by a fraction,  the  numerator of which shall be the actual  number of
days elapsed in the current  fiscal year and  denominator of which shall be 365.
Any payment  provided to Executive under the terms of this Section 6 is referred
to herein as a "Severance  Payment".  The Severance  Payment shall be payable to
Executive in equal  installments in accordance with the Company's normal payroll
practices  as if Executive  were still  employed by the Company over a period of
eighteen (18) months if termination is by the Company other than for Cause or by
the  Executive for Good Reason or twelve (12) months  otherwise.  In addition to
the Severance  Payment,  Executive shall be entitled to receive all benefits set
forth in Section 7.1 on terms and  conditions no less favorable to the Executive
than those in effect immediately prior to the Executive's termination during the
period that the Severance Payment is payable to him.

7.   CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

         7.1  During  the  Employment  Term,  Executive  shall  be  entitled  to
participate,  to the extent Executive is eligible under the terms and conditions
thereof, in any benefit plans which the Company may from time to time provide to
its senior executives during the Employment Term. Unless otherwise  specifically
set forth  herein,  the Company  shall be under no  obligation  to  institute or
thereafter continue the existence of any such benefit plan.

         7.2  The  Company  currently  has  directors  and  officers   liability
insurance.  The Company  covenants  that  Executive  shall be covered under such
policy  through the  Employment  Term,  and  thereafter  with respect to matters
occurring during the Employment Term.

         7.3 The Company will reimburse Executive for any premium Executive pays
for life insurance on  Executive's  life,  obtained by Executive,  that benefits
Executive's  beneficiaries  up to a  maximum  reimbursement  by the  Company  of
$1,500.00 per year.

         7.4 Executive  shall be entitled to four weeks of vacation per year, in
accordance with existing policies of the Company.

8.   CHANGE OF CONTROL

         8.1 For the  purpose of this  Agreement,  a "Change of  Control"  shall
mean:

              (a) The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the
     meaning of Section 13(d) (3) or 14(d) (2) of the Securities Exchange Act of

     (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3  promulgated  under the Exchange  Act) of
     50% or more (on a fully diluted  basis) of either (i) the then  outstanding
     shares of common stock of the Company,  taking into account as  outstanding
     for this purpose such common stock issuable upon the exercise of options or
     warrants,  the conversion of convertible stock or debt, and the exercise of
     any similar  right to acquire such common stock (the  "Outstanding  Company
     Common  Stock") or (ii) the combined  voting power of the then  outstanding
     voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election
     of directors  (the  "Outstanding  Company  Voting  Securities");  provided,
     however,   that  for  purposes  of  this   subsection  (a),  the  following
     acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control:  (w) any acquisition
     by the Company or any "affiliate" of the Company,  within the meaning of 17
     C.F.R.  & 230.405 (an  "Affiliate"),  (x) any  acquisition  by any employee
     benefit plan (or related  trust)  sponsored or maintained by the Company or
     any  Affiliate,  (y)  any  acquisition  by any  corporation  pursuant  to a

     the Board of Directors (the  "Incumbent  Board")  ceasing for any reason to
     constitute  at  least a  majority  of the  Board  of  Directors;  provided,
     however,  that  any  individual  becoming  a  director  subsequent  to such
     effective date whose election,  or nomination for election by the Company's
     shareholders,  was  approved  by a  vote  of at  least  a  majority  of the
     directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though
     such individual were a member of the Incumbent  Board,  but excluding,  for
     this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs
     as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the
     election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation
     of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person  other than the Board of
     Directors; or

              (c) Consummation of a  reorganization,  merger or consolidation or
     sale or other  disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
     Company (a "Business  Combination"),  in each case, unless,  following such

     entities who were the beneficial owners,  respectively,  of the Outstanding
     Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities  immediately
     prior  to  such  Business   Combination   beneficially   own,  directly  or

                                                                    Exhibit 10.6

     indirectly, more than 60% of, respectively,  the then outstanding shares of
     common stock and the combined voting power of the then  outstanding  voting
     securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors,  as the
     case may be, of the  corporation  resulting from such Business  Combination
     (including,  without  limitation,  a corporation  which as a result of such
     transaction owns the Company or all or  substantially  all of the Company's
     assets either directly or though one or more subsidiaries) in substantially
     the same  proportions as their ownership of the Outstanding  Company Common
     Stock  and  Outstanding  Company  Voting  Securities,  as the  case may be,
     immediately  prior  to  such  Business  Combination,  and  (ii)  no  Person
     (excluding  any  employee  benefit  plan (or related  trust)  sponsored  or

     corporation)  beneficially owns, directly or indirectly,  20% or more (on a
     fully diluted basis) of the then outstanding  shares of common stock of the
     corporation resulting from such Business  Combination,  taking into account
     as  outstanding  for this  purpose  such  common  stock  issuable  upon the
     exercise of options or warrants,  the  conversion of  convertible  stock or
     debt,  and the exercise of any similar  right to acquire such common stock,
     or the combined voting power of the then outstanding  voting  securities of
     such corporation  except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to
     the  Business  Combination  and (iii) at least a majority of the members of
     the board of  directors of the  corporation  resulting  from such  Business
     Combination  were  members  of  the  Incumbent  Board  at the  time  of the
     execution  of this  Agreement  or of the  action of the Board of  Directors
     providing for such Business Combination; or

              (d)  Approval  by the  stockholders  of the  Company of a complete
     liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

writing no later  than 10 days  prior to a Change of Control  whether it desires
Executive to remain employed for a maximum of six months following the Change of
Control (the  "Transition  Period").  If  Executive  is notified  that it is not
desired that he remain employed  following the Change of Control,  or if no such
notice is given or the notice  references a  transition  period of more than six
months,  Executive shall have the right to voluntarily  terminate his employment
during the 60-day period following the Change of Control and, subject to Section
8.4 below, such termination shall be deemed to have occurred for Good Reason for
purposes of this Agreement.

         8.3 If Executive is properly notified that the Company or its successor
or purchaser desires Executive to remain employed for a Transition  Period,  and
if Executive  remains employed for the Transition  Period,  then Executive shall
have the right to voluntarily  terminate his employment during the 60-day period
following the end of the  Transition  Period and,  subject to Section 8.4 below,
such  termination  shall be deemed to have occurred for Good Reason for purposes
of this Agreement.  Any termination of Executive's employment by Executive prior
to the end of the Transition Period shall not be considered termination for Good
Reason.

         8.4 If,  within one year  following  a Change of  Control,  Executive's
employment  is  terminated  by the Company  other than for Cause,  or  Executive
terminates  his  employment  for Good Reason  (including  for this purpose under
circumstances  described in Section 8.2 and 8.3),  (i) if the price per share of

the Company's common stock paid to the Company's stockholders by the acquirer of
the Company is $4.00 or greater, Executive shall, in lieu of any amounts payable
to  Executive  under  Section  6,  receive  an  aggregate  payment  equal to (a)
Executive's  yearly  Base  Salary  in  effect  on the  date  of his  termination
multiplied by 1.5 (i.e.  for each $1.00 of Base Salary  Executive  would receive
$1.50),  plus (b) an amount equal to the  Discretionary  Bonus paid to Executive
for the fiscal year immediately  preceding the fiscal year in which  termination
occurs,  and,  in the  case of the  Discretionary  Bonus  only,  pro  rated by a
fraction,  the  numerator of which shall be the actual number of days elapsed in
the current  fiscal year and the  denominator  of which shall be 365 (the amount
calculated  under (b) shall be referred to herein as the  "Termination  Bonus"),
the  aggregate  of such  payments to be made to Executive in a lump sum no later
than five days  following  his  termination;  (ii) if the price per share of the
Company's common stock paid to the Company's stockholders by the acquirer of the
Company is greater than $2.99 but less than $4.00,  Executive  shall, in lieu of
any amounts payable to Executive  under Section 6, receive an aggregate  payment
equal  to (a)  Executive's  yearly  Base  Salary  in  effect  on the date of his
termination  multiplied  by 1.25 (i.e.  for each $1.00 of Base Salary  Executive
would  receive  $1.25) plus (b) the  Termination  Bonus,  the  aggregate of such
payments to be made to Executive in a lump sum no later than five days following
his termination; (iii) if the price per share of the Company's common stock paid
to the Company's  stockholders  by the acquirer of the Company is $2.99 or less,
Executive  shall,  in lieu of any amounts  payable to Executive under Section 6,
receive an  aggregate  payment  equal to (a)  Executive's  yearly Base Salary in
effect  on the date of his  termination,  plus (b) the  Termination  Bonus,  the
aggregate  of such  payments to be made to Executive in a lump sum no later than
five days  following  his  termination;  and (iv) in the event  that a Change of
Control  occurs other than by a Person  purchasing  the shares of the  Company's
common stock from the Company's  stockholders,  Executive  shall, in lieu of any
amounts payable to Executive under Section 6, receive an aggregate payment equal
to (a)  Executive's  yearly Base Salary in effect on the date of his termination
multiplied by 1.5 (i.e.  for each $1.00 of Base Salary  Executive  would receive
$1.50) plus (b) the Termination Bonus, the aggregate of such payments to be made
to Executive in a lump sum no later than five days  following  his  termination.
Upon a Change of Control,  all of Executive's  options shall vest in full and be
immediately  exercisable and Executive's  401(k) shall vest in full. In addition
to the payments  provided in this Section  8.4,  Executive  shall be entitled to
receive all  benefits  set forth in Section 7.1 for twelve,  fifteen or eighteen
months following such termination,  on terms and conditions no less favorable to
the  Executive  than  those  in  effect  immediately  prior  to the  Executive's
termination,  the  duration of such  benefits to be eighteen  months if his Base
Salary (as above  provided) is  multiplied  by 1.5,  fifteen  months if his Base
Salary (as above provided) is multiplied by 1.25 or twelve months otherwise.

following has occurred (without Executive's express prior written consent).

     Agreement.

10.  DISCHARGE FOR CAUSE

         10.1 The Company  shall have the right to terminate  the  employment of
Executive during the Employment  Term. If the Company  terminates the employment
of  Executive  other  than for  Cause,  the  provisions  of  Section  6 and,  if
applicable,  Section 8 shall apply. If the Company  terminates the employment of
Executive for Cause,  its  obligation  under this  Agreement to make any further

effect on the  Company,  or (b) failure to act by Executive  involving  material
malfeasance or gross negligence having an adverse effect on the Company provided
that any action or failure to act by Executive shall not constitute  "Cause" if,
in good faith,  Executive believed such action or failure to act to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Company, or if Executive shall be entitled,
under  applicable  law or the  Certificate  of  Incorporation  or By-Laws of the
Company, to be indemnified with respect to such action or failure to act, (c) in
the  event  Employer  makes a good  faith  determination  that  Executive  is so
disabled,   for  mental  or  physical  reasons,  that  Executive  is  unable  to
satisfactorily  perform his duties hereunder for an aggregate of 180 days during
any period of 12 consecutive months, or (d) the death of Executive.

and written)  relating to the  Company,  any of its  subsidiaries  or any of its
activities, other than such information which can be shown by Executive to be in
the public domain (such  information not being deemed to be in the public domain
merely because it is embraced by more general information which is in the public
domain)  other than as the result of a breach of the  provisions of Section 12.2
below,  including,  but not limited to,  information  relating  to:  technology;
research;  test procedures and results;  machinery and equipment;  manufacturing
processes;  financial  information;  products;  identity and  description of raw

be required in connection with the  performance by him of his duties  hereunder)
or thereafter directly or indirectly, use, communicate,  disclose or disseminate
any Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever.

         12.3  Non-compete  Covenant.  Executive shall not, during the period of
his  employment  by the  Company  and,  unless  Executive  has  terminated  this
Agreement  for Good Reason,  for a period of 12 months  thereafter,  directly or
indirectly  (a) engage in any  business  (whether as owner,  manager,  operator,
lender, partner,  shareholder,  licensor,  licensee,  joint venturer,  employee,
consultant or otherwise) in which the Company or any of its then subsidiaries is
or has been  engaged (or is actively  considering  engaging)  during the term of
Executive's  employment  by the  Company  in any  geographic  area in which  the
Company or any of its  respective  subsidiaries  is so  engaged  or is  actively
considering  engaging,  or (b)  take  any  other  action  which  constitutes  an
interference with or a disruption of the activities of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall be permitted to own
(as a passive  investment) not more than 1% of any class of securities  which is
registered  under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended:  provided,
however,  that said 1%  limitation  shall  apply to the  aggregate  holdings  of
Executive and all other  persons and entities with whom  Executive has agreed to
act  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring,  holding,  voting  or  disposing  of such
securities.

         12.4  Certain  Activities.  For purposes of  clarification,  but not of
limitation,  Executive  hereby  acknowledges  and agrees that the  provisions of
Section  12.3  shall  serve as a  prohibition  against  him,  during  the period
referred to therein, directly or indirectly,  hiring, offering to hire, enticing
away or in any other manner  persuading  or  attempting to persuade any officer,
employee,  agent, lessor,  lessee,  licensor,  licensee,  customer,  prospective

applications   therefor   (including    continuations,    continuations-in-part,
divisions, reissues, renewals and extensions) for all countries relating to such
Inventions,  that Executive,  either alone or with others, may make, conceive or
reduce to practice during the term of Executive's  employment by the Company (it
being agreed that any Invention disclosed by Executive within one year following
the termination of Executive's employment by the Company shall be deemed to fall
within the  provisions  of this Section 12.5 unless  proved by Executive to have
been first conceived,  made and reduced to practice following the termination of
his employment by the Company).  Executive  shall (i) promptly  communicate  and
disclose  to the  Company  all  information,  data and  details  concerning  all
Inventions,  and (ii) during the term of  Executive's  employment by the Company
and at any time  thereafter,  execute  all  papers  and  perform  all acts,  and
cooperate  with the Company and its counsel in any other way which,  in the sole
view of the  Company,  is  necessary  and  proper to more fully  effectuate  the
provisions of this Section 12.5. All expenses in connection with the obligations
of  Executive  under  this  Section  12.5  shall be borne by the  Company or its
nominee.

         12.6  Records.  During the  period of his  employment  by the  Company,
Executive  shall make and maintain  adequate and current  written records of all
Inventions,  in the form of notes,  sketches,  drawings and/or reports  relating
thereto, which records shall be and shall remain the property of the Company and
shall  be  available  to the  Company  at all  times.  Upon  termination  of the
Executive's  employment  for any  reason  whatsoever,  all  documents,  records,
notebooks  and  other  materials  which  refer or  relate  to any  aspect of the
business which are in the possession of Executive, including all copies thereof,
shall be promptly returned to the Company.

         12.7 Injunctive Relief,  etc. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and
agree that (i) the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach
by Executive  of any of his  obligations  under this  Section 12, (ii)  monetary
damages  would not be an  adequate  remedy  for any such  breach,  and (iii) the
Company shall be entitled to injunctive  relief, in addition to any other remedy
which it may have,  in the event of any such  breach.  It is hereby  also agreed
that the existence of any claims which Executive may have against the Company or
its  subsidiaries,  whether under this  Agreement or  otherwise,  shall not be a
defense  to the  enforcement  by the  Company  of any of its  rights  under this
Section 12.

         12.8 Scope of Restriction.  It is the intent of the parties hereto that
the  covenants  contained  in this  Section 12 shall be  enforced to the fullest
extent  permissible  under the laws and public policies of each  jurisdiction in
which  enforcement  is  sought  (Executive   hereby   acknowledging   that  said
restrictions  are  reasonably  necessary  for the  protection  of the  Company).
Accordingly,  it is hereby agreed that if any of the  provisions of this Section
12  shall  be  adjudicated  to  be  invalid  or  unenforceable  for  any  reason
whatsoever,  said provision shall be (only with respect to the operation thereof
in the particular  jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) construed by
limiting  and  reducing it so as to be  enforceable  to the extent  permissible,
without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the
validity or enforceability of said provision in any other jurisdiction.

         12.9  Nonexclusivity.  The undertakings of Executive  contained in this
Section 12 shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any obligations which he
may have with respect to the subject  matter hereof,  whether by contract,  as a
matter of law or otherwise.
