way while he was employed by the Company or by any of its subsidiaries.

reason, during the 12-month period following such termination, the Employee will
not directly or indirectly (as a director, officer, executive employee, manager,
consultant,  independent contractor, advisor or otherwise) engage in competition
with,  or own any interest in,  perform any services for,  participate  in or be
connected with any business or organization that engages in competition with the

Agreement  shall be sufficient  if in writing and if sent by registered  mail to
the Company at its  principal  executive  offices or to the Employee at the last
address filed by him in writing with the Company, as the case may be.

11. NON-ASSIGNMENT.

         The interests of the Employee under this  Employment  Agreement are not
subject  to  the  claims  of  his  creditors  and  may  not  be  voluntarily  or
involuntarily assigned, alienated or encumbered.

12.  SUCCESSORS.

         This Agreement  shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the
Company and its successors and assigns and upon any person acquiring, whether by
merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all
