                                             RECITALS

         A. The Client desires to be assured of the association and services of
the Consultant in order to avail itself of the Consultant's experience, skills,
abilities, knowledge, and background to facilitate long range strategic
planning, and to advise the Client in business and/or financial matters and is
therefore willing to engage the Consultant upon the terms and conditions set
forth herein.

         B. The Consultant agrees to be engaged and retained by the Client and
upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual
promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

         1.   ENGAGEMENT. Client hereby engages Consultant on a
              non-exclusive basis, and Consultant hereby accepts the
              engagement to become a financial consultant to the Client and
              to render such advice, consultation, information, and services
              to the Directors and/or Officers of the Client regarding
              general financial and business matters including, but not
              limited to:

         A.   Mergers and acquisitions, reorganizations, reverse mergers,
              divestitures, and due diligence studies;

         B.   Capital structures and sources, and financial transactions;

         C.   Guidance and assistance in available alternatives to maximize
              shareholder value;

         2. TERM. The term ("Term") of this Agreement shall commence on the date
hereof and continue for twelve (12) months. The Agreement may be extended upon
agreement by both parties, unless or until the Agreement is terminated. Either
party may cancel this Agreement upon five days written notice in the event
either party violates any material provision of this Agreement and fails to cure
such violation within five (5) days of written notification of such violation
from the other party. Such cancellation shall not excuse the breach or
non-performance by the other party or relieve the breaching party of its
obligation incurred prior to the date of cancellation.

         3. COMPENSATION AND FEES. As consideration for Consultant entering into
this Agreement, Client and Consultant shall agree to the following:

         A. Client shall issue certificates representing an aggregate of
            one hundred seventy five thousand (175,000) shares of common
            stock (the "Shares"). The shares issued to the Consultant on
            the date hereof shall have the status of "restricted"
            securities as the term is defined by Rule 144 under the
            Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These shares are
            non-cancelable and shall have registration rights upon the
            first SEC registration filed by the Client.

The Shares, when issued to Consultant, will be duly authorized, validly issued
and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and will not be subject to any
liens or encumbrances.

         Securities shall be issued to Consultant in accordance with a mutually
acceptable plan of issuance as to relieve securities or Consultant from
restrictions upon transferability of shares in compliance with applicable
registration provisions or exemptions.

         4. EXCLUSIVITY; PERFORMANCE; CONFIDENTIALITY. The services of
Consultant hereunder shall not be exclusive, and Consultant and its agents may
perform similar or different services for other persons or entities whether or
not they are competitors of Client. Consultant shall be required to expend only
such time as is necessary to service Client in a commercially reasonable manner.
Consultant acknowledges and agrees that confidential and valuable information
proprietary to Client and obtained during its engagement by the Client, shall
not be, directly or indirectly, disclosed without the prior express written
consent of the Client, unless and until such information is otherwise known to
the public generally or is not otherwise secret and confidential.

         5. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. In its performance hereunder, Consultant
and its agents shall be an independent contractor. Consultant shall complete
the services required hereunder according to his own means and methods of
work, shall be in the exclusive charge and control of Consultant and which
shall not be subject to the control or supervision of Client, except as to
the results of the work. Client acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed to require Consultant to provide services to Client at any
specific time, or in any specific place or manner. Payments to consultant
hereunder shall not be subject to withholding taxes or other employment taxes
as required with respect to

                                       2

compensation paid to an employee.

         6. MISCELLANEOUS. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision and no
waiver shall constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be binding unless
executed in writing by the party making the waiver. No supplement, modification,
or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by
all parties. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties
and supersedes any prior agreements or negotiations. There are no third party
beneficiaries of this Agreement.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have entered into this Agreement
on the date first written above.
