                  2.3. Term of Employment. The Executive's employment under this
         Agreement   shall commence as of the Effective Time and shall   terminate
         on the earlier of (a) December 31, 2001, or (b) the   termination of the

         except for options   expressly assumed by Parent in the Merger Agreement

         no further force or effect.

         3. SALARY

                  3.1. Base Salary. From the Effective Time, the Executive shall
         be   entitled   to receive a base   salary   ("Base   Salary")   at a rate of
         $230,000   per   annum,    payable   twice   monthly   in   arrears   in   equal
         installments in accordance with the Parent's payroll practices.

                  3.2.   Annual   Review.   The   Executive's   Base Salary   shall be
         reviewed   for   potential   increase   by   the   Parent,    based   upon   the
         Executive's   performance,   not less often than   annually.   Any positive
         adjustments in Base Salary effected as a result of such review shall be
         made by the   Parent in its sole   discretion;   provided,   however,   that
         during the three year period of the Employment Term only, the Executive
         shall receive a minimum increase of ten percent (10%) per annum.
<PAGE>
                  3.3. Bonus.   During his employment   under this Agreement,   the
         Executive   shall be entitled to   participate in Parent's Cash Incentive
         Plan ("Bonus   Plan"),   under which the   Executive   shall be entitled to
          participate   as a "Large   Country   Manager" (as such term is defined in
         the Bonus   Plan) and to   receive   an annual   bonus of up to 130% of his
         Base   Salary,   based on his   level   of   achievement   of the   applicable
         performance criteria. Any bonus will be paid in cash in accordance with
         of the terms and conditions of the Bonus Plan. If Executive   would have
         been   entitled   to a bonus   under   this   Section   for any bonus   period
         (January 1 to June 30, and July 1 to December 31) but for the fact that
         he is no longer   employed by the Company on a bonus payment date (March
         15 or September 15), as opposed to during a bonus period, other than as
         a result of a termination   for Cause or Executive's   resignation,   then
         Executive   shall   nonetheless be entitled to and be paid the applicable
         bonus.

         4. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION.

         The Company will provide the   Executive   with the   following   long-term
incentive compensation arrangement in accordance with the terms of Parent's 1996
Incentive Stock Option Plan ("Stock Option Plan").

                           (a) As soon as practicable   after the Effective Time,
                  Parent will grant the   Executive   nonqualified   stock   options
                  ("Options")   to acquire   450,000 shares of Parent common stock
                  ("Shares"); 120,000 of the Options will be designated Series A
                  Options   ("Series A Options"),   150,000 of the Options will be
                  designated   Series B Options   ("Series B Options") and 180,000
                  of the Options will be designated   Series C Options ("Series C
                  Options"), in each case with an exercise price equal to $17.00
                  per share.

                           (b) For each of the three fiscal years of the Company
                  beginning   with   fiscal   year   1999   ("Performance    Period"),
                  one-third   of each of the   Series   A,   Series   B and   Series C
                  Options will vest (and become   exercisable) at the end of each
                  fiscal year if the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the
                  Pharmanex/IDN Gross Profit objectives for such fiscal year for
                  such   series   and   set   forth   on   Appendix   A   (which   may be
                  equitably    adjusted    from    time   to    time,    in   the   sole
                  determination of Parent's Board of Directors acting reasonably
                  and   in   good   faith,   to   reflect    significant   changes   and
                  developments   in   the   Company's    operations   resulting   from
                  acquisitions   or   dispositions of other companies or business)
                  ("Gross   Profit")   are   met or   exceeded,   (ii)   the   Parent=s
                  Consolidated   Revenue objectives for such fiscal year for such
                  series and set forth in   Appendix   B (which   may be   equitably
                   adjusted from time to time, in the sole   determination   of the
                  Parent's   Board of   Directors   acting   reasonably   and in good
                  faith,   to reflect   significant   changes and   developments   in
                  Company and Parent   operations   resulting from acquisitions or
                  dispositions of other companies or businesses)   ("Consolidated
                  Revenue")   are met or   exceeded,   and (iii) the   Executive   is
<PAGE>
                  employed by the Company or an affiliate continuously until the
                  last day of such fiscal year. For purposes of this   Agreement,
                  Gross   Profit of the Company and   Consolidated   Revenue of the
                  Parent   shall   be   calculated   by   the   Parent=s    independent
                  certified   public   accountants   in accordance   with   generally
                  accepted   accounting   principles.   In the event that   Parent's
                  Board of   Directors   determines   that an increase in the Gross
                  Profit or   Consolidated   Revenue   objectives   is   warranted in
                  accordance   with   the   foregoing,   such   objectives   shall   be
                  adjusted   upward by an amount   equal to the   annualized   gross
                  profit (for the Gross Profit   objectives)   or revenue (for the
                  Consolidated   Revenue   objectives)   results   for the   acquired
                  company in the year of acquisition, plus the lesser of (i) 10%
                   ten percent per annum to reflect a modest   anticipated   growth
                  rate,   or (ii) the   average   historical   growth   rate in gross
                  profit (for the Gross Profit   objectives)   or revenue (for the
                   Consolidated   Revenue   objectives)   of   the   acquired   company
                  during the acquired company's prior three fiscal years.

         Moreover,   if any one-third installment of such Options have not become
exercisable in accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph, such Options
shall   become   vested and   exercisable   at the earlier to occur,   if any, of the
following dates or events:

                           (i)   the   end of any   subsequent   fiscal   year in the
                  Performance   Period if the cumulative Gross Profit   objectives
                  and the   cumulative   Consolidated   Revenue   objectives for the
                  period ending with the end of such fiscal year as set forth on
                  Appendix A and Appendix B are met or exceeded;   provided   that
                  the   Executive is employed by the Company   continuously   until
                  the last day of such fiscal year; or

                           (ii)   the   date   which   is   seven    years   after   the
                  Effective   Time;   provided   the   Executive   is employed by the
                  Company continuously until such date.

         Notwithstanding   the   foregoing,   upon the   occurrence   of a change   of
control of the   Parent   (as   defined in the Stock   Option   Plan),   all   unvested
Options will become immediately   vested and exercisable;   provided the Executive
is employed by the Company or an affiliate on such date.

                           (c ) Unless the   Company   determines   otherwise,   the
                  Executive shall forfeit all Options, whether or not vested, if
                  the   Executive's   employment   with the   Company   or any of its
                  affiliates    is    terminated    for   Cause   or,   if    following
                  termination of the Executive's   employment with the Company or
                  any of its   affiliates   for   any   other   reason,   the   Company
                  determines    that,    during   the   period   of   the   Executive's
                   employment,   circumstances   existed   which would have entitled
                  the Company or any such affiliate to terminate the Executive's
                  employment   for Cause and the Company   notifies   Executive   of
                  such   determination   in writing no later than ninety (90) days
                  after termination of Executive's employment with the Company.
<PAGE>
                           (d ) In connection with the grant of the Options, the
                  Company and the Executive   shall enter into an award   document
                  which shall set forth the term of the Options,   the procedures
                  for exercising the Options and such other terms as the Company
                  may determine, in its reasonable discretion, are necessary and
                  appropriate;    provided,   however,   that   notwithstanding   the
                  foregoing the Options shall have the longest term   permissible
                  under the Stock Option Plan.

          5. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

         The Executive   shall,   during his employment   under this Agreement,   be
included   to the extent   eligible   thereunder   in all   employee   benefit   plans,
