foregoing shall not, however, preclude the Employee: (a) from engaging in
appropriate civic, charitable or religious activities; (b) from serving on the
boards of directors of other entities, with the consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (c) from providing incidental
assistance to family members on matters of family business, so long as the

responsibilities to the Company.
4. Term of Agreement.
------- ---------
4.1 Initial Term. The Company agrees to continue the Employee's
------------
employment, and the Employee agrees to remain in the employ of the Company,
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years after
the Effective Date, unless the Employee's employment is earlier terminated
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
4.2 Renewal. The term of this Agreement shall be extended
-------
automatically, without further action of either party, as of three (3) years
after the Effective Date and on each succeeding anniversary of that date, for
terms of one (1) year, unless on or before ninety (90) days prior to the last
day of the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, the Company or the
Employee shall notify the other in writing of its intention not to renew this
Agreement, in which case the Employee's employment shall terminate at the end of
the original term or any

this Agreement or any extension thereof, then such termination shall be
effective ninety (90) days from such notice. No notice of non-renewal may be
given by either party after a renewal term has commenced. Any such renewal shall
be upon such terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, unless otherwise
agreed between the Company and the Employee. The notice of non-renewal by either

5. Compensation and Benefits.
-------------------------
5.1 Base Salary. The Employee's initial base annual salary will be no
-----------
less than $85,000 per year for the first year of her employment with the

Board of Directors at least annually and will increase to no less that $110,000
per year effective on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and to no less
than $125,000 per year effective on the second anniversary of the Effective

without limitation pension and profit-sharing plans, stock option, incentive or
other bonus plans, life, health, disability, accident, vision and dental
insurance programs, paid vacations and sabbatical leave plans, and similar plans
or programs, in accordance with the rules established for individual
participation in any such plan. The Employee will also be entitled to reasonable

Initial Option cannot be transferred by the Employee except in the event of her
death, and must be exercised by the Employee (or in the event of her death, by

common stock on exercise of the Initial Option shall be cash, cashless exercise
(also called net zero transaction), recourse promissory note and such other

similar change in the capital structure of the Company without consideration,
then the number of shares subject to the Initial Option will be proportionately
adjusted.

--------------
for all reasonable legal expenses incurred by the Employee in connection with
the preparation of this Agreement, up to a maximum of $500.

whichever provides her with the greater economic benefit: (i) the total amount
of such benefits; or (ii) the largest amount that would result in no portion of

8. Nondisclosure. The Employee acknowledges that during the course of her
-------------
employment by the Company, the Company will provide, and the Employee will
acquire, knowledge of special and unique value with respect to the Company's
business operations, including, by way of illustration, the Company's existing
and contemplated product line, trade secrets, compilations, business and
financial methods or practices, plans, hardware and software technology
products, systems, programs, projects and know-how, pricing, cost of providing
service and equipment, operating and maintenance costs, marketing and selling
techniques and information, customer data, customer names and addresses,
customer service requirements, supplier lists, and confidential information
relating to the Company's policies, employees, and/or business strategy (all of
such information herein referenced to as the "Confidential Information"). The
Employee recognizes that the business of the Company is dependent upon
Confidential Information and that the protection of the Confidential Information
against unauthorized disclosure or use is of critical importance to the Company.
The Employee agrees that, without prior written authorization of the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, the Employee will not, during her employment,
divulge to any person, directly or indirectly, except to the Company or its
officers and agents or as reasonably required in connection with the Employee's
duties on behalf of the Company, or make any independent use of, except on
behalf of the Company, any of the Company's Confidential Information, whether
acquired by the Employee during her employment or not. The Employee further
agrees that the Employee will not, at any time after her employment has ended,
use or divulge to any person directly or indirectly any Confidential
Information, or use any Confidential Information in subsequent employment of any
nature. If the Employee is subpoenaed, or is otherwise required by law to
testify concerning Confidential
6
Information, the Employee agrees to notify the Company upon receipt of a
subpoena, or upon belief that such testimony shall be required. This
nondisclosure provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any
reason. The Employee acknowledges that the Company would not employ the Employee
but for her covenants and promises contained in this Section 8.
9. Return of Documents. The Employee agrees that if the Employee's
-------------------
relationship with the Company is terminated (for whatever reason), the Employee
shall not remove or take with the Employee, but will leave with the Company or
return to Company, all Confidential Information, records, files, data,
memoranda, reports, customer lists, customer information, product information,
price lists, documents and other information, in whatever form (including on
computer disk), and any and all copies thereof, or if such items are not on the
premises of the Company, the Employee agrees to return such items immediately
upon the Employee's termination or the request of the Company. The Employee
acknowledges that all such items are and remain the property of the Company.
10. No Interference or Solicitation. The Employee agrees that during her
-------------------------------
employment, and for a period of thirty-six (36) months following the termination
of her employment (for whatever reason), that neither she nor any individual,
partner(s), limited partnership, corporation or other entity or business with
which she is in any way affiliated, including, without limitation, any partner,
limited partner, director, officer, shareholder, employee, or agent of any such
entity or business, will: (i) request, induce or attempt to influence, directly
or indirectly, any employee of the Company to terminate their employment with
the Company; or (ii) employ any person who as of the date of this Agreement was,
or after such date is or was, an employee of the Company. The Employee further
agrees that during the period beginning with the commencement of the Employee's
engagement with the Company and ending six (6) months after the termination of
the Employee's employment with the Company (for whatever reason), she shall not,
directly or indirectly, as an employee, agent, consultant, stockholder,
director, partner or in any other individual or representative capacity of the
Company or of any other person, entity or business, solicit or encourage any
present or future customer, supplier, contractor, partner or investor of the
Company to terminate or otherwise alter her, her or its relationship with the
Company. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any
reason.
11. Non-Competition. In consideration of the numerous mutual promises
---------------
contained in the Agreement between the Company and the Employee, including,
without limitation, those involving Confidential Information, and in order to
protect the Company's Confidential Information and to reduce the likelihood of
irreparable damage which would occur in the event such information is provided
to or used by a competitor of the Company, the Employee agrees that during her
employment and for an additional period of six (6) immediately following the
termination of her employment, whether voluntary or involuntary (the "Non-
Competition Term"), not to, directly or indirectly, either through any form of
ownership or as a director, officer, principal, agent, employee, employer,
adviser, consultant, shareholder, partner, or in any individual or
representative capacity whatsoever, without the prior written consent of the
Company (which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion): (i) compete for
or solicit business related to an application service provider for or on behalf
of any person or business entity with a place of business in the United States
or Canada; (ii) own, operate, participate in,
7
undertake any employment with or have any interest in any entity with a place of
business in the United States or Canada in the business of marketing and selling
of application service provider to persons or business entities, except owning
publicly traded stock for investment purposes only in which the Employee owns
less than 5%; (iii) compete for or solicit application service provider business
from any customer of the Company (or its successors by merger); or (iv) use in
any competition, solicitation, or marketing effort any Confidential Information,
any proprietary list, any information concerning customers of the Company.
If, during any period within the Non-Competition Term, the Employee is not
in compliance with the terms of this Section 11, the Company shall be entitled
to, among other remedies, compliance by the Employee with the terms of this
Section 11 for an additional period equal to the period of such noncompliance.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Non-Competition Term" shall also
include this additional period. The Employee hereby acknowledges that the
geographic boundaries, scope of prohibited activities and the time duration of
the provisions of this Section 11 are reasonable and are no broader than are
necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company.
This non-competition provision shall survive the termination of the
Employee's employment and can only be revoked or modified by a writing signed by
the parties which specifically states an intent to revoke or modify this
provision. The Employee acknowledges that the Company would not employ her but
for her covenants or promises contained in this Section 11.
12. Reformation of Section 11. The Company and the Employee agree and
-------------------------
stipulate that the agreements and covenants not to compete contained in Section
11 hereof are fair and reasonable in light of all of the facts and circumstances
of the relationship between the Employee and the Company; however, the Employee
and the Company are aware that in certain circumstances courts have refused to
enforce certain agreements not to compete. Therefore, in furtherance of, and not
in derogation of the provisions of Section 11, the Company and the Employee
agree that in the event a court should decline to enforce the provisions of
Section 11, that Section 11 shall be deemed to be modified or reformed to
restrict the Employee's competition with the Company or its affiliates to the
maximum extent, as to time, geography and business scope, which the court shall
find enforceable; provided, however, in no event shall the provisions of Section
11 be deemed to be more restrictive to the Employee than those contained herein.
12. Injunctive Relief. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
-----------------
agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement are essential to protect
the Confidential Information, business, and goodwill of the Company. The
Employee further acknowledges that the breach of any of the agreements contained
herein, including, without limitation, the confidentiality covenants specified
in Section 8, the non-solicitation covenants specified in Section 10, and the
non-competition covenants contained in Section 11, will give rise to irreparable
injury to the Company, inadequately compensable in damages. Accordingly, the
Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent or cure breaches or
threatened breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specific
performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court of
8
competent jurisdiction, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies
which may be available. The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that in the
event of the termination of the Employee's employment with the Company, whether
voluntary or involuntary, that the enforcement of a remedy hereunder by way of
injunction shall not prevent the Employee from earning a reasonable livelihood.
The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained herein
are necessary for the protection of the Company's legitimate business interests
and are reasonable in scope and content.
13. Miscellaneous
-------------
13.1 Indemnification and Errors and Omissions Insurance. The Company
--------------------------------------------------
agrees to indemnify and defend the Employee on terms no less favorable than any
indemnification agreement the Company has at any time during the term of this
Agreement with an executive or officer of the Company.
13.2 Arbitration. The Employee and the Company shall submit to
-----------
mandatory binding arbitration in any controversy or claim arising out of, or
relating to, this Agreement or any breach hereof. Such arbitration shall be
conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American
Arbitration Association in effect at that time, and judgment upon the
determination or award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator is hereby authorized to award to the
prevailing party the costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses)
of any such arbitration.
13.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be found
------------
by any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or
unenforceable, then the parties hereby waive such provision to the extent that
it is found to be invalid or unenforceable and to the extent that to do so would
not deprive one of the parties of the substantial benefit of its bargain. Such
provision shall, to the extent allowable by law and the preceding sentence, be
modified by such arbitrator or court so that it becomes enforceable and, as
modified, shall be enforced as any other provision hereof, all the other
provisions continuing in full force and effect.
13.4 No Waiver. The failure by either party at any time to require
---------
performance or compliance by the other of any of its obligations or agreements
shall in no way affect the right to require such performance or compliance at
any time thereafter. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision
hereof shall not be taken or held to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding
breach of such provision or as a waiver of the provision itself. No waiver of
any kind shall be effective or binding, unless it is in writing and is signed by
the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced.
13.5 Assignment. This Agreement and all rights hereunder are personal
----------
to the Employee and may not be transferred or assigned by the Employee at any
time. The Company may assign its rights, together with its obligations
hereunder, to any parent, subsidiary, affiliate or successor, or in connection
with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of
9
its business and assets, provided, however, that any such assignee assumes the

reduced by all federal, state, local and other withholding and similar taxes and
payments required by applicable law.

agreement between the parties relating to employment of the Employee with the
Company, and this Agreement supersedes and cancels any and all previous
