additional one-year term as of the Effective Date of a Change in Control and may
not be terminated by the Company until the completion of such one-year term.

employment at any time for Cause, in which event Executive shall not be entitled
to receive any payments or other benefits under this Agreement.

     10.  Death of Executive. In the event Executive dies subsequent to
Executive's entitlement to benefits under this Agreement but prior to the

     11.  Withholding of Taxes. The Company may deduct from the amount of any
benefits payable hereunder any taxes required to be withheld by the federal or

     14.  Agreement Not To Compete. Executive hereby recognizes and
acknowledges that: (a) in his executive capacity with Company he will be given
knowledge of, and access to, the Confidential Information; (b) in the event that
Executive was to enter into competition with Company, Executive's knowledge of
such Confidential Information would be of invaluable benefit to a competitor of
Company, and could cause irreparable harm to Company's business interests; and
(c) Executive's consent and agreement to enter into the noncompetition
provisions and covenants set forth herein is an integral condition of this
Agreement, without which Company would not have agreed to provide Confidential
Information to Executive nor to his compensation, benefits, and other terms of
this Agreement. Accordingly, in consideration for his employment, compensation,
benefits, access to and entrustment of Confidential Information, and the
goodwill, training and experience provided to Executive during his Employment
Period, Executive hereby covenants, consents and agrees that during the
Employment Period, and for a period of one (1) year after his employment is
terminated for any reason Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, acting
alone or in conjunction with others, for his own account or for the account of
others, including, without limitation, as an officer, director, stockholder in

     (b)  Engage or participate in any Similar Business to Company within the
          entire continental United States (referred to herein as the
          "Restricted Area");

     (c)  Request or advise any service provider, supplier, or customer to
          reduce or cancel any business that it may transact with Company or any
          of its affiliated entities;

     (d)  Solicit, induce, or otherwise attempt to influence any employee of the
          Company or any of its affiliated entities, to terminate his or her
          relationship with the Company or any of its affiliated entities; or

     (e)  Make any statement or perform any act intended to advance an interest
          of an existing or prospective competitor of the Company or any of its
          affiliated entities in any way that demonstrably injures the
          reputation, goodwill or any other business interest of Company or any
          of its affiliated entities.

     For purposes of this Agreement, "Similar Business to Company" means any
business or other enterprise that is competitive with the current or planned
businesses, products, services or operations of the Company or any of its
affiliated entities at the time of termination of Executive's employment.

products, energy and futures in any of the forgoing shall be excluded so long as
Executive does not undertake this for a competitor of the Company.

          Executive hereby agrees that the limitations set forth in this
Section 14 on his rights to compete with Company after his termination of
employment are reasonable and necessary for the protection of Company. In this
regard, Executive specifically agrees that such limitations as to the period of
time, geographic area and types and scopes of restriction on his activities, as
specified above, are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill and other
business interests of Company. If Company fails to make any payments under
Articles 2-5 then this Section is no longer binding on the Executive.

     15.  Arbitration.

     (a)  Arbitrable Matters. If any dispute or controversy arises between
Executive and the Company as to their respective rights or obligations under
this Agreement, then either party may submit the dispute or controversy to
arbitration under the then-current National Employment Dispute Resolution Rules
of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) (the "Rules"); provided, however,
the Company shall retain its rights to seek a restraining order or injunctive
relief pursuant to Section 14. Any arbitration hereunder shall be conducted
before a panel of three arbitrators unless the parties mutually agree to a
single arbitrator. The site for any arbitration hereunder shall be either Harris
County or Fort Bend County, Texas, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the
parties.

     (b)  Submission to Arbitration. The party submitting any matter to
arbitration shall do so in accordance with the Rules. Notice to the other party
shall state

                                                                1 of 2 Originals

the question or questions to be submitted for decision or award by arbitration.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 24, Executive shall be entitled to
seek specific performance of the Executive's right to be paid during the
pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under this Agreement. In order to
prevent irreparable harm, the arbitrator may grant temporary or permanent
injunctive or other equitable relief for the protection of property rights.

     (c)  Arbitration Procedures. The arbitrator shall set the date, time and
place for each hearing, and shall give the parties advance written notice in
accordance with the Rules. Any party may be represented by counsel or other
authorized representative at any hearing. The arbitration shall be governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.ss.ss.1 et. seq. (or its successor). The
arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if
applicable) of the State of Texas to the claims asserted to the extent that the
arbitrator determines that federal law is not controlling.

     (d)  Compliance with Award.

          (i) Any award of an arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the
          parties to such arbitration, and each party shall immediately make
          such changes in its conduct or provide such monetary payment or other
          relief as such award requires. The parties agree that the award of the
          arbitrator shall be final and binding and shall

                                                                1 of 2 Originals

          be subject only to the judicial review permitted by the Federal
          Arbitration Act.

          (ii) The parties hereto agree that the arbitration award may be
          entered with any court having jurisdiction and the award may then be
          enforced as between the parties, without further evidentiary
          proceedings, the same as if entered by the court at the conclusion of
          a judicial proceeding in which no appeal was taken. The Company and
          the Executive hereby agree that a judgment upon any award rendered by
          an arbitrator may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
          judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

     (e)  Costs and Expenses. Each party shall pay any monetary amount required
by the arbitrator's award, and the fees, costs and expenses for its own counsel,
witnesses and exhibits, unless otherwise determined by the arbitrator in the
award. The compensation and costs and expenses assessed by the arbitrator and
the AAA shall be paid by the Company, unless otherwise determined by the
arbitrator in the award such as, for example, if the arbitrator determines that
Executive's claim was frivolous or not brought in good faith. If court
proceedings to stay litigation or compel arbitration are necessary, the party
who unsuccessfully opposes such proceedings shall pay all associated costs,
expenses, and attorney's fees which are reasonably incurred by the other party
as determined by the arbitrator.

     16.  Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Company and its affiliated entities, and its and
their successors, and upon any person or entity acquiring, whether by merger,
consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all of the
business and/or assets of Company. The Company shall require any successor
(whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to
all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to expressly
assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place; provided, however, no such assumption shall relieve the Company
of its obligations hereunder.

     This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
Executive's personal or legal representative, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees or other Beneficiary. In
the event of the death of Executive while any amount would still be payable
hereunder if such death had not occurred, all such amounts, unless otherwise
specifically provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement to Executive's Beneficiary. "Beneficiary", for this purpose, shall
mean the person or persons designated by Executive in writing to receive any
benefits payable to Executive hereunder in the event of his death or, if no such
person is so designated, Executive's surviving spouse if any, or, if not, then
Executive's estate. No Beneficiary designation shall be effective unless it is
in writing and received by the Company prior to the date of Executive's death.

accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

     19.  Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is
held invalid, in whole or in part, such invalidity shall not affect any other
provision of this Agreement not so held invalid, and each such other provision
shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect.
If this Agreement or any portion thereof conflicts with law or regulation
governing the activities of the Company, the Agreement or appropriate portion
thereof shall be deemed invalid and of no force or effect.

     20.  Confidentiality. Executive shall retain in confidence any and all
confidential information known to him concerning the Company and its business so

     3.   Events Terminating This Agreement.

     (a)  If Employee's employment with the Company is terminated for any
reason before the Effective Date of a Change in Control, this Agreement shall
terminate upon the date of termination of Employee's employment and Employee
shall not be entitled to any benefits or payments under this Agreement.

Employee's employment that may exist from time to time between the parties
hereto, or any other compensation payable by the Company to Employee, whether

contract of employment between the parties hereto, nor shall any provision
hereof, except as expressly stated, restrict the right of the Company to
discharge Employee or restrict the right of Employee to terminate his
employment.

     5.  Term of Agreement. Subject to Employee's earlier termination of
employment with the Company, as provided herein, this Agreement shall remain in
effect until twelve months after its effective date, and shall be automatically
renewed and extended for successive one- year terms commencing on that

Directors, gives Employee written notice of its decision not to renew this
Agreement for the following term provided that such notice is delivered to
Employee at least 90 days before the then current term expires.

one-year term.

paid in cash from the general funds of the Company. Employee shall have no
right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company
may make to aid the Company in meeting its obligations hereunder. Employee shall
cooperate and provide to the Company any documentation as may be required to aid
the Company in meeting its obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this
Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to this paragraph, shall create or be
construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between
the Company and Employee or any other person. The rights of Employee or
Employee's estate to benefits under this Agreement shall be solely those of an
unsecured creditor of the Company.

     7.   Sale of the Company. The sale of all or substantially all of the
property and assets of the Company otherwise than in the usual and regular
course of its business, or a merger of the Company wherein the Company is not
the "surviving corporation" or any other transaction that in effect amounts to
the sale of the Company, shall not serve to terminate this Agreement.

     8.   Termination For Cause. The Company may terminate Employee's
employment at any time for Cause, in which event Employee shall not be entitled
to receive any payments or other benefits under this Agreement.

     9.   Death of Employee. In the event Employee dies subsequent to
Employee's entitlement to benefits under this Agreement but prior to the payment

benefits payable hereunder any taxes required to be withheld by the federal or
any state or local government.

     11.  Prohibition Against Assignment. The right of Employee to benefits
under this Agreement shall not be assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered
in any way, and any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance or other
disposition of such benefits shall be null and void and without effect;
provided, however, that the Company may assign this entire Agreement to any
successor to all or substantially all of the Company's capital stock or business
and assets and this Agreement shall be binding on any such successor.

     12.  Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns, and Employee, his heirs,
executors, administrators and legal representatives. As used in this Agreement,

business entity which at any time, whether by merger, purchase or otherwise,
acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company.

between parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may be
modified only by a written instrument executed by both parties hereto.

          any other provision of this Agreement not so held invalid, and each
          such other provision shall to the full extent consistent with law

          continue in full force and effect. If this Agreement or any portion
          thereof conflicts with law or regulation governing the activities of
          the Company, the Agreement or appropriate portion thereof shall be
          deemed invalid and of no force or effect.
