Termination by employer, for cause (all five officers):
Employer may terminate employee for cause, meaning failure by the
employee to correct, cease, or otherwise alter any action or omission
to act that constitutes a material and willful breach of the employment
agreement likely to result in material damage to the Company, or

been included as an exhibit to ASI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended September 30, 1992 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
