Mozart employment.

SECTION 2. Scope. EMPLOYEE will be employed by SEEC in an Executive capacity, to

President or his designee may from time to time specify. EMPLOYEE's title will
be determined by SEEC's President. Initially, EMPLOYEE's duties are outlined in

right, in its sole discretion, to make changes to EMPLOYEE's duties and
responsibilities at any time, and from time to time.

EMPLOYEE is employed by SEEC.

     meanings at the times in question: (i) the word "person" includes

     enjoys any common ownership with SEEC, and any subsidiary of any of the
     foregoing.

B.   While EMPLOYEE is employed by SEEC, EMPLOYEE shall use his best efforts to
     further the best interests and welfare of SEEC. EMPLOYEE may work for
     himself, and/or for others, but agrees that while he is employed by SEEC,

     i.   perform, directly or indirectly, any work or services whatsoever for

          competition with any SEEC technology or services, including but not

          without the written authorization of SEEC, which authorization SEEC
          may in its sole discretion refuse;

     ii.  perform, directly or indirectly, any work or services for any
          competitor of SEEC, without the written authorization of SEEC, which
          authorization SEEC may in its sole discretion refuse;

     iii. induce or attempt to persuade any employee of SEEC to terminate such
          employment; or

     business relationship, while EMPLOYEE is employed by SEEC.

     SEEC harm for which money damages will be inadequate. Therefore EMPLOYEE

     restrain such breach.

SECTION 5. EMPLOYEE agrees to abide by (i) such lawful employment policies and
