deemed to have a "Disability" if, for physical or mental reasons, the Executive
is unable to perform the essential functions of the Executive's duties with
reasonable accommodation under this Agreement for 120 consecutive days, or 120
days during any twelvemonth period, as determined in accordance with this
Section 6.2. The Disability of the Executive will be determined by a medical
doctor selected by written agreement of the Employer and the Executive upon the
request of either party by notice to the other. If the Employer and the
Executive cannot agree on the selection of a medical doctor, each of them will
select a medical doctor and the two medical doctors will select a third medical
doctor who will determine whether the Executive has a Disability. The
determination of the medical doctor selected under this Section 6.2 will be
binding on both parties. The Executive must submit to a reasonable number of
examinations by the medical doctor making the determination of disability under
this Section 6.2, and the Executive hereby authorizes the disclosure and release
to the Employer of such determination and all supporting medical records. If the
Executive is not legally competent, the Executive's legal guardian or duly
authorized attorney-in-fact will act in the Executive's stead, under this
Section 6.2, for the purposes of submitting the Executive to the examinations,
and providing the authorization of disclosure, required under this Section 6.2.

with respect to a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude for which
imprisonment is a possible punishment.
6.4 TERMINATION PAY

Employer will be obligated to pay the Executive (or, in the event of his death,
his designated beneficiary as defined below) the compensation provided in this
Section 6.4:
(a) Termination by the Employer for Cause or
Termination by Executive Without Cause. If the Employer terminates this
Agreement for cause or Executive terminates his employment without cause, the

termination is effective, but will not be entitled to any bonus compensation for
the calendar year during which such termination occurs.
(b) Termination upon Disability. If this
Agreement is terminated by either party as a result of the Executive's
Disability, as determined under Section 6.2, the Employer will pay the Executive
his Salary through the remainder of the calendar month during which such

the date of termination or the remaining term under this Employment Agreement.
(e) Termination by Executive Due to a Change
of Control. If this Agreement is terminated by Executive due to a Change of
Control that occurs after September 21, 2000, then (i) Employer shall continue
to pay to Executive his monthly Salary and bonus, based upon the average annual
bonus paid previously to Executive prior to termination of this Agreement, for

three year Employment Period; and (ii) all Options plus all other stock, options
or other equity rights in Employer which Executive received in connection with

Employer and the Executive acknowledge that the services to be
performed by the Executive under this Agreement are unique and valuable and
that, as a result of the Executive's employment, the Executive will be in a
relationship of confidence and trust with Employer and will come into possession
of "Confidential Information" (i) owned or controlled by Employer and its
subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) in the possession of Employer and its
subsidiaries and affiliates and belonging to third parties; or (iii) conceived,
originated, discovered or developed, in whole or in part, by the Executive. As
used herein "Confidential Information" means trade secrets and other
confidential or proprietary business, technical, personnel or financial
information of Employer, whether or not the Executive's work product, in
written, graphic, oral or other tangible or intangible forms, including but not
limited to specifications, samples, records, data, computer programs, drawings,
diagrams, models, consumer names, ID's or email addresses, business or marketing
plans, studies, analyses, projections and reports, communications by or to
attorneys (including attorney-client privileged communications), memos and
other materials prepared by attorneys or under their direction (including
attorney work product), and software systems and processes that are not readily
available to the public, even it is not specifically marked as a trade secret or
confidential, unless Employer advises the Executive otherwise in writing or
unless the information has been shared by Employer with entities not bound by
nondisclosure agreements. In consideration of the compensation and benefits to
be paid or provided to the Executive by the Employer under this Agreement, the
Executive agrees not to directly or indirectly use or disclose to anyone, either
during the Employment Period or after the termination of this Agreement, except
in the performance of his duties of his employment with Employer or with
Employer's prior written consent, any Confidential Information of Employer. This
nondisclosure covenant does not apply to information that is disclosed or
becomes public through another source; which Executive is required to disclose
pursuant to court order, subpoena or applicable law (provided that Executive
will use reasonable efforts to provide Employer with prompt notice of any such
requests or requirement so that
7
Employer may seek an appropriate protective order); or which is disclosed in any
proceeding to enforce or interpret this Agreement. The Executive agrees that in
the event of the termination of the Executive's employment for any reason, the
Executive will deliver to Employer, upon request, all property belonging to
Employer, including all documents and materials of any nature pertaining to the
Executive's work with Employer and will not take with him any documents or
materials of any description, or any reproduction thereof of any description,
containing or pertaining to any Confidential Information.
8. NONCOMPETITION
During the term of this Agreement and for a one year period
after termination of this Agreement by Employer for cause or by Executive
without any cause whatsoever (i.e., not as a result of termination by Executive
under Sections 6.1(e), or 6.1(f)), as set forth in Sections 6.1(c) and (d), the
Executive agrees that he shall not (a) work for or be interested in any business
which serves as a holding company primarily for the purpose of acquiring
entities whose products and services are delivered to consumers over the
Internet ("Internet Entities"), (b) engage or be interested in or receive any
compensation from any business in which the services to be rendered by the
Executive to such business directly relates to services or products which are
directly competitive with "primary" services or products offered by the Employer
or a subsidiary or affiliate of Employer at the Executive's termination date; or
(c) induce or attempt to induce any employee, agent or customer of Employer or
any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate or reduce the scope of his,
her or its relationship with Employer. A product or service shall be deemed
"primary" only if such service or product constitutes a primary component of the
core business of Employer or its majority owned subsidiaries and affiliates on
Executive's termination date. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "work
for or be interested in any business" means that the Executive is a stockholder,
director, officer, employee, partner, individual proprietor, lender or
consultant with that business, but not if (i) his interest is limited solely to
the passive ownership of five percent (5%) or less of any class of the equity or
debt securities of a corporation whose shares are listed for trading on a
national securities exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market, or (ii)
he is interested in a company listed on Schedule 8 hereto, or after termination
hereof, works for such company; provided however, that so long as this
noncompetition agreement is in effect, Executive shall not work for a company
listed on Schedule 8 if such company serves as a holding company primarily for
the purpose of acquiring Internet Entities. In the event that any part of this
Section 8 is adjudged invalid or unenforceable by any court of record, board of
arbitration or judicial or quasi judicial entity having jurisdiction thereof by
reason of length of time, geographical coverage, activities covered, or for any
other reason, then the invalid or unenforceable provisions of this covenant
shall be deemed reformed and amended to the maximum extent permissible under
applicable law and shall be enforced and enforceable as so amended in accordance
with the intention of the parties as expressed herein.

9. GENERAL PROVISIONS
9.1 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ADDITIONAL REMEDY
The Executive acknowledges that the injury that would
be suffered by the Employer as a result of a breach of the provisions of any
provision of Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement would be irreparable and that an
award of monetary damages to the Employer for such a breach would be an
inadequate remedy. Consequently Employer will have the right, in addition to any
other rights it may have, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or
threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provisions of
Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement, and the Employer will not be obligated to
post bond or other security in seeking such relief.
9.2 WAIVER
The rights and remedies of the parties to this
Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay
by either party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this
Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no
single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude
any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise
of any other right, power, or privilege.
9.3 NOTICES
All notices, consents, waivers, and other
communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to
have been duly given when (a) delivered by hand, (b) sent by facsimile (with
written confirmation of receipt), provided that a copy is mailed by registered
mail, return receipt requested, or (c) when received by the addressee, if sent
by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service (receipt requested), in
