Agreement to amend and restate the Prior Agreement in its entirety, hereby agree
as follows:
1. Employment, Duties and Acceptance Term.
--------------------------------------
1.1 Employment, Duties. The Company hereby employs the Executive for
------------------
the Term (as defined in Section 1.4), to render services to the Company as

agrees to devote substantially all of the Executive's business time, effort and
skill to promote the interests of the Company, except as may be required by the

directors of another corporation and except for normal holiday and vacation
periods and of periods of illness and incapacity. The Executive further agrees
to accept

director of any subsidiary of the Company, without any additional compensation
therefor.
1.3 Location. The duties to be performed by the Executive hereunder
--------

1.4 The Term. The term of the Executive's employment under this
--------
Agreement (the "Term") shall commence on the date hereof and shall end on March
31, 2000 (or such later date to which the Term may be extended by mutual written
agreement between the Company and the Executive), unless earlier terminated as
hereinafter provided.
2. Compensation; Benefits.
-----------------------
2.1 (a) As compensation for services to be rendered pursuant to this
Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the Executive during the Term a base
salary, payable in accordance with the Company's payment policy for executive
officers, at the annual rates set forth below, less such deductions or amounts
to be withheld as required by applicable law and regulations (the "Base
Salary"), plus such increases as may be implemented from time to time in
accordance with this Section 2.1(a). Any increase in the Base Salary from the
annual rates set forth below shall be implemented by the Company only if
approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (or, if such Board delegates
such authority to its Compensation Committee, by such Compensation Committee)in
its discretion. In the event that the Board (or such Compensation Committee, if
applicable), in its sole discretion , from time to time determines to increase
the Base Salary, such increased amount shall, from and after the effective date
of the increase, constitute "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement and
shall not thereafter be reduced except as otherwise contemplated by Section
2.1(b) hereof. The Executive shall be entitled to annual compensation reviews in
which all aspects of his compensation (including, without limitation, benefits)
will be compared with the compensation (including, without limitation, benefits)
of chief executive officers of similarly situated companies toward the objective
of providing the Executive with appropriate rewards and incentives.
(b) Subject to Section 2.1(a) hereof, (i) for the period ending
August 31, 1998, the Base Salary shall be not less than a rate of Two Hundred
Thousand ($200,000) Dollars per year, (ii)for the period from September 1, 1998
through December 31, 1998 (the "Second Period"), the Base Salary shall be not
less than a rate of Three Hundred Thousand ($300,000)Dollars per year and
(iii)for the balance of the Term (the "Balance Period"), the Base Salary shall
not be less than a rate of Two Hundred Thousand ($200,000), Dollars per year,
provided that with respect to the Balance Period, any diminution in Base Salary
from that paid during the Second Period shall be implemented only after the
Company's Board of Directors (or, if such Board delegates such authority to its
Compensation Committee, such Compensation Committee)reviews the Executive's
total compensation (including, without limitation, benefits) and provides the
Executive with incentives and/or performance-based compensation
-2-
arrangements that, in such Board's or Committee's view and sole discretion,
properly incentivize the Executive under the circumstances then prevailing.
2.2 Bonus. In addition to the amounts to be paid to the Executive
-----
pursuant to Section 2.1, the Executive shall be paid annual bonuses of not less
than 50%, but no more than 100%, of the Base Salary. The amount of the annual
bonus shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (or, if such

Directors of the Company (or, if such Board delegates such authority to its
Compensation Committee, by such Compensation Committee) before the start of the
year in which such bonus is to be paid. For the first bonus period (year ending
December 31, 1998), however, the performance objectives to be achieved shall (i)
be determined by the Company's Board of Directors (or, if such Board delegates
such authority to its Compensation Committee, by such Compensation Committee)no

in raising capital sufficient to enable the Company to meet its operational
objectives, (b) the Executive's efforts in implementing the Company's WWeXchange

Bonus. In the event that the Company fails to pay (within five days after
receiving written notice of default) any amount required to be paid to Executive

comply with Section 4 hereof; provided, however, that if the Company fails to
make any such payments due to a lack of sufficient financial resources to make
such payments, (i) the Executive shall remain obligated to comply with Section 4
hereof for a period of ninety days after the Company first defaults in its
obligations under this Section 3.4 (but in no event for a period expiring after

Section 4 shall preclude Executive from becoming "Associated With" an entity

with such entity do not include the provision of such internet telephony
services and (B) the provision of internet telephony services to wholesale
customers does not represent a substantial portion of such entity's overall
business activities. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall

"Competing Business" means the business of any person, corporation (for
profit or not for profit) or other entity which indirectly or directly

forth in Section 4.1 of this Agreement shall restrict the Executive from the
date of this Agreement until the earliest of: (a) two (2) years following

Executive for other than Good Reason; (b) one (1)year following termination of
this Agreement (i) by the Company other than for Cause or (ii) by the Executive
for Good Reason; and (c) upon termination of this Agreement, if this Agreement
terminates pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof or upon expiration of the Term.
4.3 If any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1 or 4. 2, or any
part thereof, hereafter are construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the same
shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants, which shall be
given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.
4.4 If any of the covenants contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 5, or
any part thereof, are held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such
provision or the area covered thereby, the parties agree that the court making
such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area of
such provision to the maximum extent possible and, in its reduced form, said
provision shall then be enforceable.
4.5 The parties hereto intend to and hereby confer jurisdiction to
enforce the covenants contained in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 upon the courts of any
state within the geographical scope of such covenants. In the event that the
courts of any one or more of such states shall hold such covenants wholly
unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such covenants or otherwise, it is the
intention of the parties hereto that such determination not bar or in any way
affect the Company's right to the relief provided above in the courts of any
other states within the geographical scope of such covenants as to breaches of
such covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, the above covenants as
they relate to each state being for this purpose severable into diverse and
independent covenants.
4.6. In the event that any action, suit or other proceeding in law or
in equity is brought to enforce the covenants contained in Sections 4.1 and 4.2
or to obtain money damages for the breach thereof, and such action results in
the award of a judgment for money damages or in the granting of any injunction
in favor of the Company, all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) of
the Company in such action, suit or other proceeding shall (on demand of the
Company) be paid by the Executive. In the event the Company fails to obtain a
judgment for money damages or an injunction in favor of the Company, all

(on demand of the Executive) be paid by the Company.
