                  (ii) Thereafter, during each subsequent twelve month period of
      the balance of the Initial Term and each  Renewal Term (each,  a "Contract
      Year"),  Executive's  salary shall be approved by the  Company's  Board of
      Directors;  provided,  however,  that in each Contract Year, the amount of
      such  salary  shall  not be less than that  paid  during  the  immediately

            (b) Bonus.

                  (i) With respect to each  calendar  year,  including  the year

      directors'  and  officers'  liability  insurance,  listing  fees  etc.) or
      management fees, if any.

                  (ii)  Executive  may make  quarterly  draws  against the Bonus
      equal to 20% of the  Company's  Gross Profit in excess of $700,000 for the
      preceding quarter,  provided,  however,  that no such quarterly draw shall
      exceed 30% of the  Executive's  Base  Salary for such  quarter.  Any draws
      shall be  reconciled  against the Bonus as  computed  after the end of the
      Company's fiscal year.

            (c)   Reimbursement.   The  Company  shall  promptly  reimburse  the
Executive,  in accordance  with the Company's  policies and  practices,  for all
reasonable and necessary traveling expenses,  disbursements and other reasonable
and  necessary  incidental  expenses  incurred  by him for or on  behalf  of the
Company in the  performance  of his duties  hereunder upon  presentation  by the
Executive to the Company of appropriate  receipts and  documentation.  Executive
shall be  entitled  to fly  business  class for any flights in excess of 4 hours
traveling time.

            (d) Automobile  Allowance.  During the Initial Term and each Renewal
Term,  the  Company  shall lease an  automobile  for  Executive  or shall pay to
Executive an allowance  equivalent  to  Executive's  lease or financing  payment
costs for the automobile of Executive's  choice and the Company shall pay all of
Executive's insurance, repairs and maintenance, and fuel costs.

            (e) Standard  Benefits.  During the Term and to the extent available
to  executives  of the  Company  and  DSSI  (including  its  subsidiaries),  the
Executive  shall be entitled  generally  to  participate  in all benefit  plans,
welfare  and  retirement   plans,   401(k)  plans,   life  insurance,   medical,

disability  coverage and such other standard benefits maintained or sponsored by
the Company or its subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Company
shall pay the premiums on a term life insurance policy selected and owned by the
Executive which total amount of the face value of such policy for any given year
shall be five (5) times the aggregate Base Salary for the preceding  year,  (ii)
the Company shall pay Executive's premiums for supplemental  disability coverage
which  shall  provide  for  benefits  of up to 80% of Base  Pay;  and  (iii) the

<PAGE>

a period  of 180 days or  longer  (whether  consecutively  or in the  aggregate)
during any  twelve-month  period (such  condition  being herein referred to as a
"Disability"),  prior to the Executive resuming the performance of his duties as
contemplated  herein,  the Company may terminate the employment of the Executive
under  this  Agreement  and upon such  termination  the  Executive's  employment
hereunder shall terminate.

            (b) If the Executive dies during the Term, his employment  hereunder

            (c) If  there  is a  Change  of  Control,  and  within  one (1) year

As used herein,  the term  "Change of Control"  shall mean the  occurrence  with
respect  to the  Company  or DSSI,  as the case may be, of any of the  following
events:

                  i. An acquisition  of any voting  securities of the Company or
      DSSI (as the case may be, the "Voting Securities") by any "Person" (as the
      term  Person  is used  for  purposes  of  Section  13(d)  or  14(d) of the
      Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  as  amended  (the  "Exchange  Act"))

      meaning of Rule 13d-3  promulgated  under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more
      of the combined voting power of the then  outstanding  Voting  Securities;
      provided  that  prior  to such  acquisition  such  Person  had  Beneficial
      Ownership of less than 50% of the then outstanding Voting Securities;

                  ii. The individuals who, as of the date hereof, are members of
      the Board of DSSI (as the case may be, the "Incumbent  Board"),  cease for
      any reason to  constitute  at least a majority  of such  Board;  provided,
      however,  that if the election or nomination for election by the Company's
      or  DSSI's,  as the  case may be,  stockholders  of any new  director  was
      approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Board, such new
      director shall, for purposes of this Agreement,  be considered as a member
      of the Incumbent Board;  provided,  further,  however,  that no individual
      shall be considered a member of the Incumbent Board if (A) such individual
      initially  assumed  office as a result  of either an actual or  threatened
      "Election  Contest"  (as  described in Rule 14a-11  promulgated  under the
      Exchange  Act) or other actual or  threatened  solicitation  of proxies or
      consents  by or on  behalf  of a Person  other  than the  Board (a  "Proxy
      Contest"),  including  by reason  of any  agreement  intended  to avoid or
      settle any Election  Contest or Proxy Contest,  or (B) such individual was
      designated by a Person who has entered into an agreement  with the Company
      or  DSSI,  as the case  may be,  to  effect  a  transaction  described  in
      subsection  (c)(ii)(A)(1)  or  (c)(ii)(A)(3)  below;  or (iii) approval by
      stockholders of the Company or DSSI, as the case may be, of:

                  (A) A merger,  consolidation or reorganization  involving such
                  company, unless,


                                       5
<PAGE>

                        (1) the stockholders of the Company or DSSI, as the case
                        may be, immediately before such merger, consolidation or
                        reorganization, own, directly or indirectly, immediately
                        following such merger,  consolidation or reorganization,
                        at least a majority of the combined  voting power of the
                        outstanding  Voting  Securities of the corporation  (the
                        "Surviving Corporation");

                        (2) the  individuals  who were members of the  Incumbent
                        Board   immediately   prior  to  the  execution  of  the
                        agreement  providing for such merger,  consolidation  or
                        reorganization  constitute  at least a  majority  of the
                        members  of the  board  of  directors  of the  Surviving
                        Corporation; and

                        (3) no Person  (other than any Person  who,  immediately
                        prior to such merger,  consolidation or  reorganization,
                        had  Beneficial  Ownership  of a majority or more of the
                        then  outstanding   Voting  Securities)  has  Beneficial
                        Ownership of a majority or more of the  combined  voting
                        power of the Surviving  Corporation's  then  outstanding
                        Voting Securities.

                  (B) A complete liquidation or dissolution of such company; or

                  (C) An agreement for the sale or other  disposition  of all or
                  substantially all of the assets of such company to any Person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing,  a Change of Control shall not be deemed to occur
solely because any Person (the "Subject Person") acquired  Beneficial  Ownership
of more than the permitted  percentage of the outstanding Voting Securities as a
result of the  acquisition  of Voting  Securities by the Company or DSSI, as the
case may be,  which,  by reducing the number of Voting  Securities  outstanding,
increased the proportional  number of shares  Beneficially  Owned by the Subject
Person;  provided that if a Change of Control would occur (but for the operation
of this  sentence) as a result of the  acquisition  of Voting  Securities by the
Company or DSSI,  as the case may be, and after  such share  acquisition  by the
Company or DSSI, as the case may be, the Subject  Person  becomes the Beneficial
Owner of any  additional  Voting  Securities  Beneficially  Owned by the Subject
Person, then a Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred.

            (d) If the Company shall have breached a material  provision of this
Agreement (including,  but not limited to, the Company significantly diminishing
the Executive's his position,  duties,  authority,  or  responsibilities  or the
Company's  breach of its  obligations  under Section 5 hereof),  and such breach
remains uncured for ten (10) calendar days after the notice thereof is delivered
to the  Company,  than the  Executive's  employment  hereunder  shall be  deemed
terminated by the Executive upon the expiration of such 10-day cure period.

Executive's  employment  hereunder for "Cause" (a  "Termination  for Cause") and
upon such  termination the Executive's  employment  hereunder shall be deemed to
terminate upon the delivery to the Executive of the notice thereof. For purposes
of this  Agreement,  "Cause" shall be limited to the  Executive's (i) willful or
gross  misconduct  in  performing  his  duties on behalf of the  Company  or its
subsidiaries  or  affiliates  (including  misconduct  or fraud which  results in
material financial injury to the Company),  or (ii)  misappropriation  of funds,

for a period of one (1)  Contract  Year from the date of such  Termination;  and
(ii) all grants pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof will  immediately vest and shall

            (c) Upon a  Termination  for  Cause,  the  Executive  shall  have no
further  rights or claims  against the Company  under this  Agreement  except to

for Cause.

            (d) If the Company shall terminate Executive's employment during the
Term of this Agreement other than for Cause or the Executive shall terminate his

      Executive based upon the three prior years,  or, if the Executive has been
      employed by the Company for less than three  years,  2.9 times the average

      Executive has been employed by the Company;

                  (ii) any unpaid  portion of the Base  Salary  provided  for in

(as defined below),  whether such engagement shall be as an employee,  employer,
owner,  consultant,  partner or other  participant in any Competitive  Business,
(ii)  assist  others in  engaging  in any  Competitive  Business  in the  manner
described in the foregoing  clause (i), (iii) induce employees of the Company or
any of its  subsidiaries  or affiliates to terminate  their  employment with the
Company or any of its  subsidiaries  or  affiliates  and accept  employment in a
competitive  business  or engage in any  Competitive  Business  or (iv)  solicit
customers or vendors of the Company or any of its  subsidiaries or affiliates to
alter or terminate  their business  relationship  with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries  or  affiliates;  provided,  however,  that the  Executive  may own
directly  or  indirectly,  solely as a  passive  investment,  securities  of any
Competitive  Business  traded on any national  securities  exchange or quotation
system if the Executive is not a controlling  person of, nor a member of a group
which controls such person and does not, directly or indirectly,  own 5% or more
of any class of securities of such person. As used herein, the term "Competitive
Business" shall mean the business of re-selling  Hewlett-Packard,  Dell Computer
and IBM hardware in New York, New Jersey and Los Angeles, California.

            (b) The Executive  understands  that the foregoing  restrictions may
limit  his  ability  to earn a  livelihood  in a  Competitive  Business,  but he
nevertheless   believes  that  he  has  received  and  will  receive  sufficient
consideration  and other benefits  (including stock option grants) in connection
with his  employment to clearly  justify such  restrictions.  Nothing  contained


                                       8

herein shall  prohibit the  Executive  from engaging in a business that is not a
Competitive  Business,  as long as he remains  otherwise in compliance with this
Agreement.

            (c)   Anything   contained   in  this  Section  9  to  the  contrary
notwithstanding,  the  enforceability  of the  provisions  hereof by the Company
against  Executive  shall  be  entirely   conditioned  and  dependent  upon  the
observance by the Company of its  obligations to Executive  hereunder  including
the payment by Company to Executive of all amounts  provided under  subparagraph
5(a), 5(b), 8(a) and 8(b).

            (d) The  Executive  agrees  that he will not,  at any time during or
after the Term,  disclose  to any person,  firm,  corporation  or other  entity,
except as required by law, a court of competent jurisdiction,  or any recognized
subpoena  power,  or to  prosecute  claims under this  Agreement,  any secret or
confidential  information  not already in,  available  to or known by the public
domain  concerning  the  business,  clients  or  affairs  of the  Company or any
subsidiary or affiliate thereof for any reason or purpose  whatsoever other than
in  furtherance  of the  Executive's  work for the Company or any  subsidiary or
affiliate  thereof  nor shall the  Executive  make use of any of such  secret or
confidential  information  for his own purpose or for the benefit of any person,
firm,  corporation or other business entity except the Company or any subsidiary
or affiliate thereof.

SECTION  10.  MUTUAL  NON-DISPARAGEMENT.   In  consideration  of  the  foregoing
provisions of this  Agreement,  each party agrees that it will not,  directly or
indirectly,  make or cause others to make any  statement or take any action that
could reasonably be construed to be a false or misleading statement of fact or a
libelous,  slanderous or  disparaging  statement of or concerning the Executive,
the Company, its subsidiaries,  its affiliates, its businesses or its employees,
officers, directors, agents, consultants or stockholders.

SECTION 11. ENFORCEMENT.  It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that
the  provisions  of this  Agreement  shall be  enforced  to the  fullest  extent
permissible  under the laws and public policies applied in each  jurisdiction in
which enforcement is sought.  Accordingly,  if any particular  provision of this
Agreement  shall be adjudicated to be invalid or  unenforceable,  such provision
shall be deemed amended to delete  therefrom the portion thus  adjudicated to be
invalid or  unenforceable,  such  amendment  to apply  only with  respect to the
operation  of such  provision  in the  particular  jurisdiction  in  which  such
adjudication  is  made;  provided,  however,  that  if any  one or  more  of the
provisions  contained in this  Agreement  shall be  adjudicated to be invalid or
unenforceable  because  such  provision  is held to be  excessively  broad as to
duration,  geographical  scope,  activity or subject,  such  provision  shall be
deemed amended by limiting and reducing it so as to be valid and  enforceable to
the maximum extent  compatible  with the applicable  laws of such  jurisdiction,
such  amendment to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in
the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

            (a)  Notwithstanding  anything  contained  in this  Agreement to the
contrary, the provisions of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or other
termination of the Term or this Agreement until, by their terms, such provisions
are no longer operative.

            (b) It is  understood  and agreed that the  provisions  of Section 9
(Non-Competition;   Non-Disclosure   of  Information)  and  Section  10  (Mutual
Non-disparagement)  of this  Agreement  are separate and distinct from any other
agreement between the parties hereto.  Accordingly,  in the event of a breach of

arising  under such  provisions  and not for any damages which may be claimed to
arise  under or with  respect  to any  other  agreement  that is not  separately
breached.

sole discretion,  maintain  "key-person" life and disability  insurance policies

provide such  information  as the Company may  reasonably  request in connection
with the Company's obtaining and maintaining such policies.
