designated as follows in its entirety:
19. Indemnification and Hold Harmless Carson Jensen Anderson
Enterprises, Inc., d/b/a Eyecatcher Marketing Company (hereafter
"Indemnifying Party") covenants and agrees to defend, indemnify and
hold harmless New Millennium Media International, Inc. and its
officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, affiliates and
agents (collectively, the 'Indemnified Party") from and against, and
pay or reimburse the Indemnified Party for any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, costs, deficiencies or damages (whether absolute
or accrued) including interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses incurred in the investigation or defense of any of
the same or in asserting any of their respective rights hereunder
(collectively, "Losses") resulting from or arising out of (i) the
incorrectness or breach of any representation or warranty made by the
indemnifying Party in this Agreement or (ii) the failure of such
indemnifying Party to perform any covenant or fulfill any other
obligation contained in this Agreement. In the case of any claim
asserted by a third party against an Indemnified Party, notice shall
be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party promptly
after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to
which indemnity may be sought and the Indemnified Party shall permit
the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party) to
assume the defense of any claim or any litigation resulting therefrom,
provided that (i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party may
participate in such defense, but only at such Indemnified Party's
expense and without any indemnification for such expense pursuant to
this Section, and (ii) the omission by any Indemnified Party to give

12
<PAGE>

failure of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except

judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to
such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability with respect to
such claim or litigation or (ii) pursue any course of defense of any
claim subject to indemnification hereunder, if the Indemnified Party
shall reasonably and in good faith determine that the conduct of such
defense might be expected to affect adversely the Indemnified Party's
tax liability or ability to conduct its business. In the event that
the Indemnified Party shall reasonably and in good faith determine
that any proposed settlement of any claim subject to indemnification
hereunder by the Indemnifying Party might be expected to affect
adversely the Indemnified Party's tax liability or ability to conduct
its business, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at all times
to take over and assume control over the settlement, negotiations or
lawsuit relating to any such claim at the sole cost of the
Indemnifying Party, provided that if the Indemnified Party does so
take over and assume control, the amount of the indemnity required to
be paid by the Indemnifying Party shall be limited to the amount the
Indemnifying Party is able to reasonably demonstrate that it could
have settled the matter for immediately prior to the time of
assumption. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not accept
the defense of any matter as above provided, the Indemnified Party
shall have the full right to defend against any such claim or demand,
and shall be entitled to settle or agree to pay in full such claim or
demand, in its sole discretion. In any event all parties shall
cooperate in the defense of any action or claim subject to this
Agreement and the records of each shall be available to the other with
