acquire in such Confidential Information and Materials as they are
-5-
created, throughout the world, in perpetuity. Further, Officer hereby waives
any and all moral rights he may have in such Confidential Information and
Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation acknowledges that

equipment, supplies, facilities or Confidential Information and Material of
the Corporation are used and which are developed entirely on Officer's own
time and (i) do not relate directly to the business of the Corporation or

majority thereof; or (c) the stockholders of Corporation approve a merger or

or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of Corporation
outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by

surviving entity) at least 80% of the combined voting power of the voting
securities of Corporation or such surviving entity outstanding immediately
after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders approve a plan of
complete liquidation of Corporation or an agreement for the sale or
disposition by Corporation of all or substantially all of Corporation's
assets.
For purposes of this Agreement "Good Reason" shall include,
but not be limited to, any of the following (without the Officer's express
written consent): (a) the assignment to the Officer by the Corporation of
duties inconsistent with, or a substantial diminution in the nature or status

the Corporation in the Officer's compensation, benefits, or perquisites as in
effect on the date of a Change in Control; (c) a relocation of the
Corporation's principal offices to a location outside Denver, Colorado, or

8. REMEDIES.
8.1 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
8.1.1 If Officer violates Subsection 5.1, Officer shall
pay to Corporation the sum of $100,000.00 as liquidated damages to compensate
Corporation for its lost
-7-
investment of money for recruitment, training, cost of replacement, lost
revenues and other damages due to the likely disruption of the operation of
Corporation's business.
8.1.2 If Officer violates Subsection 5.2, Officer shall
pay to Corporation as liquidated damages the greater of Corporation's gross
billings to the client to which products or services are supplied in
violation of Subsection 5.2 during the year immediately prior to the first
improper solicitation or $25,000.00, to compensate Corporation for its lost
revenue, client development expenses and other damages.
8.1.3 If Officer violates Subsection 5.3, Officer shall
pay to Corporation as liquidated damages, in compensation for its recruitment
and training costs, lost revenues and other damages, the following sums for
each employee or independent contractor hired or engaged in violation of
Subsection 5.3:
Employee or Independent Contractor Amount
---------------------------------- ------
Vice-President or other officer $100,000
Other Manager or Recruiter $ 50,000
Marketer or other sales personnel $ 50,000
Programmers or other billable personnel $ 12,500
Other office staff $ 5,000
8.1.4 Officer and Corporation have carefully considered
the issue of liquidated damages and after negotiation agree that they are a
reasonable compromise after attempting to estimate what the actual damages
would be and assessing the risk of collection.
8.1.5 Officer authorizes Corporation to disclose the
terms of Sections 5, 6 and 8 of this Agreement to any subsequent employer or
client of Officer.
8.2 EQUITABLE REMEDIES. The service rendered by Officer to
Corporation and the information disclosed to Officer during his employment
are of a unique and special character, and any breach of Sections 5 or 6
hereof will cause Corporation irreparable injury and damage which will be
extremely difficult to quantify. Although the parties have agreed on
liquidated damages for some of the potential breaches by Officer, they agree
that because of the risk of collection and intangibles which are impossible
to measure, Corporation will be entitled to, in addition to all other
remedies available to it, injunctive relief to prevent a breach and to secure
the enforcement of all provisions of Sections 5 and 6. Officer represents his
experience and knowledge will enable him to earn an adequate living in a
non-competitive business and that the injunctive relief will not prevent him
from providing for himself and his family. Injunctive relief may be granted
immediately upon the commencement of any such action without notice to
Officer, WHICH NOTICE OFFICER SPECIFICALLY WAIVES.
-8-
8.3 COSTS. If litigation is brought to enforce or interpret any
provision contained herein, the court shall award reasonable attorneys' fees
and disbursements to the prevailing party as determined by the court.
8.4 SEVERABILITY. THE PARTIES HAVE CAREFULLY CONSIDERED ALL OF
SECTIONS 5, 6 AND 8 AND AGREE THAT THEY REPRESENT A PROPER BALANCING OF THEIR
INTERESTS AND WILL NOT PREVENT OFFICER FROM EARNING A LIVING AFTER
TERMINATION OF HIS EMPLOYMENT. It is the express intent of the parties hereto
that the obligations of, and restrictions on, the parties as provided in
Sections 5 and 6 shall be enforced and given effect to the fullest extent
legally permissible. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to
enforce one or more of the covenants or agreements contained in this
Agreement because the duration thereof is too long, the scope thereof is too
broad or some other reason, for the purpose of such proceeding, the court may
reduce such duration or scope to the extent necessary to permit the
enforcement of such obligations and restrictions.
9. MISCELLANEOUS.
9.1 PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS. Corporation's obligation to pay Officer
the compensation provided herein is subject to the condition precedent that
Officer perform his obligations.
9.2 WAIVER. The waiver of the breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach of the same or other provision hereof.
9.3 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; MODIFICATIONS. This Agreement represents the
entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof, and this Agreement supersedes any and all prior understandings,
agreements, plans and negotiations, whether written or oral, with respect to
the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, any under
standings, agreements or obligations respecting any past or future
compensation, bonuses, reimbursements or other payments to Officer from
Corporation. All modifications to this Agreement must be in writing and
signed by the party against whom enforcement of such modification is sought;
provided; however, that the provisions concerning Position, Base Salary
(subject to the limitation in Section 3.1) and Bonus set forth on Exhibit A
may be modified at any time by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.
9.4 NOTICES. All notices and other communications under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery, or
first-class mail, certified or registered with return receipt requested, or
by commercial overnight courier or by fax and shall be deemed to have been
duly given upon hand delivery, three (3) days after mailing, the first

Agreement as of the date first above written.
