(the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Reimer &
Rosenthal, LLP, 3801 Hollywood Blvd., Suite 350, Hollywood, Florida
33021, on or before ___________________, 1999 at 9:30. a.m. The
Closing Date may only be changed by written mutual agreement of the
parties.
2.2 Purchase and Sale of Assets. Subject to fulfillment of
the conditions precedent, and based upon the representations and
warranties, set forth herein, Buyer shall, at Closing, purchase
from Seller, and Seller shall sell to Buyer, the Assets free and
clear of any and all Encumbrances except as scheduled in 1.2
attached hereto. In consideration of and in full payment for the
Assets, Buyer shall, at Closing, pay to Seller the Purchase Price
as follows: (a) the sum of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000.00) payable to Seller in the form of a Bank Check,
Cashier's Check or attorney's trust account check, at Closing; and
(b) delivery of the number of shares of Stock having a value equal
to $150,000.00. For the purposes of this Section 2.2, the number
of shares of Stock shall be determined by taking the average
publicly traded share price for the Stock for the three (3)
business trading days prior to the Closing Date and dividing
$150,000.00 by this average share price for the Stock price. Thus,

shall transfer to Seller 75,000 shares of the Stock at closing
(i.e., 150,000 + 2.00 = 75,000 shares). If, at the close of
trading on the 548th day following the Closing Date, the value of
the Stock delivered to Seller does not have a value of at least
$150,000.00 (the value to be determined by multiplying the publicly
traded share Price at the close of that trading day by the number
of shares delivered to Seller at the Closing), Buyer shall deliver
<PAGE> 3
to Seller, at its sole option and discretion, either (a) additional
shares of Stock in an amount which, at the share price at the close
of trading that day, will, when combined with the shares of Stock
delivered to Seller at Closing, provide Seller with a total number
of shares of Stock having a total value of $150,000 as of the 548th
day after the Closing Date; or (b) cash in an amount necessary to
make up the difference between the value of the Stock on the 548th
day after the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with the
foregoing method) and $150,000.00. If Buyer elects to deliver
additional Stock in accordance with 2.2(a), the delivery shall be
made on or before the 578th day after the Closing Date and any stock
delivered will be free of any Rule 144 Restriction. If Buyer
elects to deliver cash in accordance with 2.2(b), the delivery may
be made in 12 equal monthly installments (without interest), the
first payment of cash to be mailed to Seller on or before the 578th
day after the Closing Date.
2.3 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement. Subject
to fulfillment of the conditions precedent, and based upon the
representations and warranties, set forth herein, Buyer shall, at
Closing, pay to Seller the sum of Forty Thousand Dollars
($40,000.00) in return for the Seller and the Principals executing
and delivering the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1(b), which sum shall be paid to
Seller as follows: (a) Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000)
payable to Seller in the form of a Bank Check, Cashier's Check or

promissory note (the "Note") in favor of the Seller in the
principal amount of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000.00), in the
form of Exhibit 2.3, attached hereto.

conditions precedent, and based upon the representations and
warranties set forth herein, at Closing the Buyer shall assume all
of the Assumed Liabilities. The Buyer shall not assume or have any
responsibility regarding the Excluded Liabilities, and Seller shall
retain all liability regarding the Excluded Liabilities.

<PAGE> 10
6.4 Procedure for Claims.
a) Notice of Claim. Promptly, but in any event within
30 days after obtaining knowledge of any claim or demand which may
give rise to, or could reasonably give rise to, a claim for
indemnification hereunder (any such claim an "Indemnification
Claim"), the party or parties entitled to indemnification hereunder
(the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notice to the party or
parties subject to indemnification obligations therefor (the
"Indemnifying Party") of such Indemnification Claim (a "Notice of
Claim"). A Notice of Claim shall be given with respect to ail
Indemnification Claims. However, the failure to timely give a
Notice of Claim to the indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Part from any liability that it may have to the
Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that the Indemnifying
Party is not prejudiced by such failure. The Notice of Claim shall
set forth the amount (or a reasonable estimate) of the loss, damage
or expense suffered, or which may be suffered, by the Indemnified
Party as a result of such Indemnification Claim and a brief
description of the facts giving rise to such Indemnification Claim.
The Indemnified Party shall furnish to the Indemnifying Party such
information (in reasonable detail) as the Indemnified Party may
have with respect to such Indemnification Claim (including copies
of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been
served on it and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or
other document evidencing or asserting the same).
b) Third Party Claims.
i) If the claim or demand set forth in the Notice
of Claim is a claim or demand asserted by a third party (a "Third
Party Claim"), the Indemnifying Party shall have 15 days (or such
shorter period if an answer or other response or filing with
respect to the pleadings served by the third party is required
prior to the 15th day) after the date of receipt by the Indemnifying
Party of the Notice of Claim (the "Notice Date") to notify the
Indemnified Party in writing of the election by the Indemnifying
Party to defend the Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified
Party.
ii) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party
and its agents and representatives all records and other materials
in its possession which are reasonably required in the defense of
the Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall pay any
expenses payable in connection with the defense of the Third Party
Claim as they are incurred (whether incurred by the Indemnified
Party or Indemnifying Party).
iii) In no event may the Indemnifying Party
settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified
Party's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
iv) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, at the
Indemnified Party's expense (and without the right to
indemnification for such expense under this Agreement). However,
the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the
Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party
if (a) the use of the counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to
represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a
conflict of interest; (b) the parties to such proceeding include
both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and there may
be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are
different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying
Party; (c) within 10 days after being advised by the Indemnifying
Party of the identity of counsel to be retained to represent the
Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have objected to the
retention of such counsel for valid reasons (which shall be stated
in a written notice to Indemnifying Party), and the Indemnifying
Party shall not have retained different counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; or (d) the Indemnifying
Party shall authorize the Indemnified Party to retain separate
counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
v) If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to
defend a Third Party Claim, or does not defend a Third Party Claim
in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, in
addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder, at the
sole and exclusive expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend
such Third Party Claim.
<PAGE> 11
vi) To the extent that an Indemnified Party
recovers on a Third Party Claim, the amount of such recovery (after
deduction of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
such Third Party Claim) shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the
indemnification obligation otherwise owing by the Indemnifying
Party.
c) Cooperation in Defense. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of a Third
Party Claim. Subject to the foregoing, (i) the Indemnified Party
shall not have any obligation to participate in the defense of or
to defend any Third Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnified Party's
defense of or is participation in the defense of any Third Party
Claim shall not in any way diminish or lessen its right to
indemnification as provided in this Agreement.

a) Notice of Claim. Promptly, but in any event within
30 days after obtaining knowledge of any claim or demand which may
give rise to, or could reasonably give rise to, a claim for
indemnification hereunder (any such claim an "Indemnification
Claim"), the party or parties entitled to indemnification hereunder
(the "Indemnified Party") shall give written notice to the party or
parties subject to indemnification obligations therefor (the
"Indemnifying Party") of such Indemnification Claim (a "Notice of
Claim"). A Notice of Claim shall be given with respect to all
Indemnification Claims. However, the failure to timely give a
Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Part from any liability that it may have to the
Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that the Indemnifying
Party is not prejudiced by such failure. The Notice of Claim shall
set forth the amount (or a reasonable estimate) of the loss, damage
or expense suffered, or which may be suffered, by the Indemnified
Party as a result of such Indemnification Claim and a brief
description of the facts giving rise to such Indemnification Claim.
The Indemnified Party shall furnish to the Indemnifying Party such
information (in reasonable detail) as the Indemnified Party may
have with respect to such Indemnification Claim (including copies
of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been
served on it and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or
other document evidencing or asserting the same).
b) Third Party Claims.
i) If the claim or demand set forth in the Notice
of Claim is a claim or demand asserted by a third party (a "Third
Party Claim"), the Indemnifying Party shall have 15 days (or such
shorter period if an answer or other response or filing with
respect to the pleadings served by the third party is required
prior to the 15th day) after the date of receipt by the Indemnifying
Party of the Notice of Claim (the "Notice Date") to notify the
Indemnified Party in writing of the election by the Indemnifying
Party to defend the Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified
Party.
ii) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third Party Claim on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party
and its agents and representatives all records and other materials
in its possession which are reasonably required in the defense of
the Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party shall pay any
expenses payable in connection with the defense of the Third Party
Claim as they are incurred (whether incurred by the Indemnified
Party or Indemnifying Party).
iii) In no event may the Indemnifying Party
settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified
Party's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
iv) If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend
a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, at the
Indemnified Party's expense (and without the right to
indemnification for such expense under this Agreement). However,
the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the
Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party
if (a) the use of the counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to
represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a
conflict of interest; (b) the parties to such proceeding include
both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and there may
be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are
different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying
Party; (c) within 10 days after being advised by the Indemnifying
Party of the identity of counsel to be retained to represent the
Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have objected to the
retention of such counsel for valid reasons (which shall be stated
in a written notice to Indemnifying Party), and the Indemnifying
Party shall not have retained different counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; or (d) the Indemnifying
Party shall authorize the Indemnified Party to retain separate
counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.
<PAGE> 10
v) If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to
defend a Third Party Claim, or does not defend a Third Party Claim
in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, in
addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder, at the
sole and exclusive expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend
such Third Party Claim.
vi) To the extent that an Indemnified Party
recovers on a Third Party Claim, the amount of such recovery (after
deduction of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
such Third Party Claim) shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, the
indemnification obligation otherwise owing by the Indemnifying
Party.
c) Cooperation in Defense. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of a Third
Party Claim. Subject to the foregoing, (i) the Indemnified Party
shall not have any obligation to participate in the defense of or
to defend any Third Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnified Party's
defense of or is participation in the defense of any Third Party
Claim shall not in any way diminish or lessen its right to
indemnification as provided in this Agreement.
