WHEREAS the Executive is a principal officer of the Company and an integral
part of its management;
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure both itself and the Executive of
continuity of management in the event of any actual or threatened change in
control of the Company;
WHEREAS, this Agreement is not intended to alter materially the
compensation and benefits that the Executive could reasonably expect in the
absence of a change in control of the Company and, accordingly, this Agreement
will be operative only upon a change in control of the Company, or if the
Executive's employment is terminated in anticipation of a change in control as
that term is hereafter defined.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants herein
contained and other good, valuable and binding consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed by and between
the parties as follows:
1. Operation of Agreement.
1.01 This Agreement shall be binding immediately upon its execution by
the parties hereto, but, anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, neither the Agreement nor any provision thereof shall be
operative unless and until there has been a Change in Control of the Company, or
if the Executive's employment is terminated in anticipation of a change in
control as defined in paragraph 1.02 below. Upon the date of such a Change in
Control of the Company (the "Effective Date"), this Agreement and all provisions
thereof shall become operative immediately, without the necessity of any further
action on the part of either party hereto.
1.02 For the purpose of this Agreement, the term "Change in
Control of the Company" shall mean a change in control of a nature that would be
required to be disclosed in a proxy statement, governed by the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission as in effect on the date of this Agreement;
provided that without limitation, such a change in control shall be deemed to
have occurred upon the occurrence of any one of the following:
(a) the consummation of any transaction (including without
limitation, any merger, consolidation, tender offer, or exchange offer) the
result of which is that any individual or "person" (as such term is used in
Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2), of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 - the
"Exchange Act") is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as such term is defined in
Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power
of the Company's then outstanding securities,
(b) the first day during any period of 24 consecutive months,
commencing before or after the date of this Agreement that the individuals, who
at the beginning of such 24 month period were directors of the Company for whom
the Executive shall have voted, cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board of Directors of the Company,
(c) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition
(including by merger or consolidation) in one or a series of related
transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
(d) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or
dissolution of the Company, or
(e) the date the Company files a report or proxy statement with
the SEC stating that a change in control has or may occur pursuant to any then
existing contract or termination.
1.03 This Agreement shall terminate forthwith, and without more, in
the event that Executive ceases to be an executive officer of the Company at any
time prior to the Effective Date whether by reason of his death, Disability,
discharge, resignation or otherwise; except that either party wishing to
terminate the employment relationship, other than by reason of death, Disability
or discharge for Cause, hereby agrees to give the other party at least 60 days
prior written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the commencement
of any discussions of any third party that ultimately result in the occurrence
of a Change of Control, the Company shall not at the instance or upon the
suggestion of such third party terminate the employment or reduce the
compensation of Executive.
1.04 This Agreement shall terminate three years from the date hereof;
provided, however, that this Agreement shall be continued in full force and
effect for an additional period of three years following such term, unless the
Company elects to terminate this Agreement at the end of such term and provides
at least 30 days' prior written notice to Executive; and provided, further, that
following the commencement of any discussions with any third party that
ultimately result in the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall
not make such election to terminate this Agreement at the instance or upon the
suggestion of such third party.
1.05 Except as provided in paragraphs 1.03 and 1.04 above, nothing
expressed or implied herein shall create any right or duty (on the part of the
Company or Executive) to have Executive remain in the employment of the Company
at any time prior to the Effective Date, each reserving all rights to terminate
the employment relationship at any time (subject to the notice requirement
contained in paragraphs 1.03 and 1.04 above) prior to the Effective Date, with

sum payment by providing written notice of such election to the Company. The
Company agrees to make a lump sum payment of the total of such amounts within 30
days of Executive's notice of election to receive lump sum payment. It is
acknowledged and agreed that no lump sum payment will shorten the Term of

Company or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and
its Subsidiaries unless a successor or successors (by merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to which all or a significant portion of the assets have been
transferred shall have assumed all duties and obligations of the Company under
this Agreement.
An election by the Executive to terminate his employment given under the
provisions of this paragraph 7.03 shall not be deemed a voluntary termination of
employment by the Executive for the purpose of this Agreement or any plan or
practice of the Company.
7.04 For the purpose of any provision of this Agreement, the
termination of the Executive's employment shall be deemed to have been for
"Cause" only if:

and resulting or intended to result directly or indirectly in gain or personal
enrichment at the expense of the Company; or
(b) there has been a breach by the Executive during the Period
of Employment of the provisions of paragraph 3.03 above, relating to the time to
be devoted to the affairs of the Company, or of Section 8.01, relating to
confidential information, and such breach results in demonstrably material
injury to the Company and with respect to any alleged breach of paragraph 3.03
or of section 8.01 hereof, the Executive after notice and an opportunity to be
heard either shall have failed to remedy such alleged breach or shall have
failed to take all reasonable steps to that end within thirty days from his
receipt of written notice by the Company pursuant to resolution duly adopted by
the Board of Directors of the Company; and provided that thereafter
(c) there shall have been delivered to the Executive a certified
copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company adopted by the
affirmative vote of not less than three-fourths of the entire membership of the
Board of Directors called and held for that purpose and at which the Executive
was given an opportunity to be heard, finding that the Executive was guilty of
conduct set forth in subparagraphs (a) or (b) above, specifying the particulars
thereof in detail.
Anything in this paragraph 7.04 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, the employment of the Executive shall in no event be
considered to have been terminated by the Company for Cause if termination of
his employment took place (a) as the result of bad judgment or negligence on the
part of the Executive, or (b) as the result of an act or omission without intent
of gaining therefrom directly or indirectly a profit to which the Executive was
not legally entitled, or (c) because of an act or omission believed by the
Executive in good faith to have been in or not opposed to the interest of the
Company, or (d) for any act or omission in respect of which a determination
could properly be made that the Executive met the applicable standard of conduct
prescribed for indemnification or reimbursement or payment of expenses under the
Policies of the Company or the laws of the State of Wyoming or the directors'
and officers' liability insurance of the Company, in each case as in effect at
the time of such act or omission, or (e) as the result of an act or omission
which occurred more than twelve calendar months prior to the Executive's having
been given notice of the termination of his employment for such act or omission
unless the commission of such act or such omission could not at the time of such
commission or omission have been known to a member of the Board of Directors of
the Company (other than the executive, if he is then a member of the Board of
Directors), in which case more than twelve calendar months from the date that
the commission of such act or such omission was or could reasonably have been so
known, or (f) as the result of a continuing course of action which commenced and
was or could reasonably have been known to a member of the Board of Directors of
the Company (other than the Executive) more than twelve calendar months prior to
notice having been given to the Executive of the termination of his employment.
7.05 In the event that the Executive's employment shall be terminated
by the Company during the Period of Employment and such termination is alleged
to be for Cause, or the Executive's right to terminate his employment under
paragraph 7.03(b) above shall be questioned by the Company or for any other
reason, the Executive shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and
remedies provided by law, at his election either to seek arbitration in Xxxxxx
County, Texas under the rules of the American Arbitration Association by serving
a notice to arbitrate upon the Company or to institute a judicial proceeding, in
either case within ninety days after having received notice of termination of
his employment under paragraph 7.03(b) is subject to question or that the
Company is withholding or proposes to withhold payments or provision of benefits
or within such longer period as may reasonably be necessary for the Executive to
take action in the event that his illness or incapacity should preclude his
taking such action within such ninety-day period.

8.01 The Executive agrees not to disclose, either while in the
Company's employ or at any time thereafter, to any person not employed by the

information obtained by him while in the employ of the Company, including,

distribution or customers or trade secrets; provided, however, that this

required by law or Court order.
