      THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of May 28,
2004,  by and  among  ADVANCED  COMMUNICATIONS  TECHNOLOGIES,  INC.,  a  Florida
corporation  (the  "Company"),  and  CORNELL  CAPITAL  PARTNERS,  LP, a Delaware
limited partnership (the "Investor").

      WHEREAS:

      A. The parties  hereto have  entered  into an  Investment  Agreement  (the
"Investment Agreement") of even date herewith.

      B. This Agreement is a condition precedent of the Investment Agreement.

      C. To induce the Investor to execute and deliver the Investment Agreement,
the  Company  has  agreed  to  provide  certain  registration  rights  under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and the rules and regulations  there under,
or any similar successor statute (collectively,  the "1933 Act"), and applicable
state securities laws.

      NOW, THEREFORE,  in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
contained  herein and other good and  valuable  consideration,  the  receipt and
sufficiency  of which are hereby  acknowledged,  the  Company  and the  Investor
hereby agree as follows:

      1. DEFINITIONS.

      As used in this  Agreement,  the following  terms shall have the following
meanings:

            (a) "Person" means a corporation,  a limited liability  company,  an
association,  a partnership,  an  organization,  a business,  an  individual,  a
governmental or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

            (b)  "Register,"   "registered,"  and  "registration"   refer  to  a
registration   effected  by  preparing  and  filing  one  or  more  Registration
Statements  (as defined  below) in compliance  with the 1933 Act and pursuant to
Rule 415  under  the 1933  Act or any  successor  rule  providing  for  offering
securities on a continuous or delayed basis ("Rule 415"), and the declaration or
ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement(s) by the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

            (c)  "Registrable  Securities"  means the  shares  of  Common  Stock
issuable  to the  Investor  upon  conversion  of (i) the  Series  A  Convertible
Preferred  Stock (the  "Series A Preferred  Stock")  pursuant to the  Investment
Agreement.

            (d)  "Registration  Statement" means a registration  statement under
the 1933 Act which covers the Registrable Securities.
<PAGE>

      2. REGISTRATION.

            (a)  Subject  to the terms and  conditions  of this  Agreement,  the
Company shall prepare and file, no later than one hundred twenty (120) days from
the date hereof (the "Scheduled Filing  Deadline"),  with the SEC a registration
statement on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or, if the Company is then eligible, on Form S-3)
under the 1933 Act (the "Initial  Registration  Statement") for the registration
for the resale by the Investor of the shares of the Company's Common Stock to be
issued upon  conversion of the Series A Preferred  Stock issued  pursuant to the
Investment  Agreement.  The Company  shall cause the  Registration  Statement to
remain effective until all of the Registrable Securities have been sold.

            (b) Effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement. The Company
shall  use its best  efforts  (i) to have  the  Initial  Registration  Statement
declared  effective  by the SEC no later than  ninety (90) days after the filing
thereof (the "Scheduled Effective Deadline") and (ii) to insure that the Initial
Registration  Statement and any  subsequent  Registration  Statement  remains in
effect until all of the Registrable  Securities  have been sold,  subject to the
terms  and  conditions  of this  Agreement.  It shall  be an  event  of  default
hereunder if the Initial Registration Statement is not declared effective by the
SEC within one hundred twenty (120) days after filing thereof.

            (c)  Failure  to File or Obtain  Effectiveness  of the  Registration
Statement. In the event the Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled
Filing  Deadline  or is not  declared  effective  by the  SEC on or  before  the
Scheduled  Effective Deadline,  or if after the Registration  Statement has been
declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration
Statement  (whether  because  of a failure  to keep the  Registration  Statement
effective,  failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be
made  pursuant to the  Registration  Statement,  failure to register  sufficient
shares of Common Stock or otherwise)  then as partial  relief for the damages to
any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction
of its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall
not be  exclusive of any other  remedies at law or in equity),  the Company will
pay as  liquidated  damages (the  "Liquidated  Damages")  to the holder,  at the
holder's  option,  either a cash amount or shares of the Company's  Common Stock
equal  to two  percent  (2%)  of  the  Liquidation  Amount  (as  defined  in the
Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible  Preferred Stock) outstanding
as Liquidated  Damages for each thirty (30) day period or any part thereof after
the Scheduled  Filing Deadline or the Scheduled  Effective  Deadline as the case
may be. Any Liquidated  Damages payable  hereunder shall not limit,  prohibit or
preclude  the  Investor  from  seeking any other  remedy  available  to it under
contract, at law or in equity. The Company shall pay the Investor the Liquidated
Damages within three (3) business days of the Investor making written demand.

            (d)  Liquidated  Damages.   The  Company  and  the  Investor  hereto
acknowledge  and agree that the sums payable under  subsection  2(c) above shall
constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in addition to all other
rights of the  Investor,  including  the right to call a  default.  The  parties
further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred
is incapable or is difficult to precisely  estimate,  (ii) the amounts specified
in such  subsections  bear a reasonable  relationship to, and are not plainly or
grossly  disproportionate  to  the  probable  loss  likely  to  be  incurred  in
connection   with  any  failure  by  the  Company  to  obtain  or  maintain  the
effectiveness  of a  Registration  Statement,  (iii) one of the  reasons for the
Company  and the  Investor  reaching  an  agreement  as to such  amounts was the
uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of actual damages, and
(iv) the Company and the Investor are  sophisticated  business  parties and have
been  represented by  sophisticated  and able legal counsel and negotiated  this
Agreement at arm's length.

      3. RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

            (a) The  Company  shall keep the  Registration  Statement  effective
pursuant  to Rule 415 at all times  until the date on which the  Investor  shall
have sold all the Registrable  Securities covered by such Registration Statement
(the  "Registration  Period"),   which  Registration  Statement  (including  any
amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses  contained therein) shall not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein,  or necessary to make the statements  therein, in
light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

            (b) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such  amendments
(including   post-effective   amendments)  and  supplements  to  a  Registration
Statement  and  the  prospectus  used  in  connection  with  such   Registration
Statement,  which  prospectus  is to be filed  pursuant to Rule 424  promulgated
under the 1933 Act,  as may be  necessary  to keep such  Registration  Statement
effective at all times during the Registration  Period, and, during such period,
comply with the  provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the  disposition  of
all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement
until such time as all of such  Registrable  Securities shall have been disposed
of in  accordance  with the  intended  methods of  disposition  by the seller or
sellers  thereof  as set forth in such  Registration  Statement.  In the case of
amendments and supplements to a Registration  Statement which are required to be
filed  pursuant to this Agreement  (including  pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by
reason of the Company's filing a report on Form 10-KSB,  Form 10-QSB or Form 8-K
or any analogous  report under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act"),  the Company shall  incorporate  such report by reference into
the  Registration  Statement,  if applicable,  or shall file such  amendments or
supplements  with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act  report is filed
which  created  the  requirement  for the  Company  to amend or  supplement  the
Registration Statement.

            (c) The Company  shall  furnish to the  Investor  whose  Registrable
Securities are included in any Registration  Statement,  without charge,  (i) at
least one (1) copy of such Registration  Statement as declared  effective by the
SEC and any amendment(s) thereto,  including financial statements and schedules,
all  documents  incorporated  therein  by  reference,   all  exhibits  and  each
preliminary prospectus, (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in
such Registration  Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such
other number of copies as such Investor may  reasonably  request) and (iii) such
other  documents as such  Investor may  reasonably  request from time to time in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable  Securities owned by such
Investor.


                                       3

            (d) The  Company  shall use its best  efforts  to (i)  register  and
qualify the  Registrable  Securities  covered by a Registration  Statement under
such other  securities  or "blue sky" laws of such  jurisdictions  in the United
States as any  Investor  reasonably  requests,  (ii)  prepare  and file in those
jurisdictions,   such  amendments  (including  post-effective   amendments)  and
supplements  to such  registrations  and  qualifications  as may be necessary to
maintain the effectiveness  thereof during the Registration  Period,  (iii) take
such other  actions as may be  necessary  to  maintain  such  registrations  and
qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration  Period,  and (iv)
take all  other  actions  reasonably  necessary  or  advisable  to  qualify  the
Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;  provided,  however, that
the  Company  shall not be required in  connection  therewith  or as a condition
thereto to (w) make any change to its certificate of  incorporation  or by-laws,
(x) qualify to do business in any  jurisdiction  where it would not otherwise be
required to qualify but for this  Section  3(d),  (y) subject  itself to general
taxation in any such  jurisdiction,  or (z) file a general consent to service of
process  in any such  jurisdiction.  The  Company  shall  promptly  notify  each
Investor who holds  Registrable  Securities of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification
of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or "blue sky"
laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of
the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (e) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or
development,  the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the happening
of any event as a result  of which the  prospectus  included  in a  Registration
Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or
omission to state a material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made,  not  misleading  (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any
material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment
to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and
deliver ten (10) copies of such  supplement or amendment to each  Investor.  The
Company  shall  also  promptly  notify  each  Investor  in  writing  (i)  when a
prospectus or any  prospectus  supplement or  post-effective  amendment has been
filed,  and when a Registration  Statement or any  post-effective  amendment has
become effective  (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each
Investor  by  facsimile  on the  same  day of such  effectiveness),  (ii) of any
request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration  Statement or
related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company's reasonable
determination that a post-effective  amendment to a Registration Statement would
be appropriate.

            (f) The Company  shall use its best  efforts to prevent the issuance
of any  stop  order or  other  suspension  of  effectiveness  of a  Registration
Statement,  or the  suspension of the  qualification  of any of the  Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction within the United States of America and,
if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order
or  suspension at the earliest  possible  moment and to notify each Investor who
holds  Registrable  Securities  being sold of the issuance of such order and the
resolution  thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the  initiation or threat
of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (g) At the  reasonable  request of any  Investor,  the Company shall
furnish to such Investor,  on the date of the  effectiveness of the Registration
Statement  and  thereafter  from time to time on such dates as an  Investor  may
reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company's independent
certified  public  accountants in form and substance as is customarily  given by
independent  certified  public  accountants to  underwriters  in an underwritten
public  offering,  and  (ii) an  opinion,  dated  as of such  date,  of  counsel
representing the Company for purposes of such Registration  Statement,  in form,
scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten  public offering,
addressed to the Investor.

            (h) Upon five (5) days prior written  notice by the Investor,  which
notice  shall not be given  more  than one (1) time per  calendar  quarter,  the
Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any Investor and (ii) one (1)
firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investor (collectively,  the
"Inspectors") all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Company (collectively,  the "Records"), as shall
be  reasonably  deemed  necessary  by each  Inspector,  and cause the  Company's
officers,  directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector
may reasonably request; provided,  however, that each Inspector shall agree, and
each Investor hereby agrees, to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any
disclosure  (except to an Investor) or use any Record or other information which
the  Company  determines  in  good  faith  to  be  confidential,  and  of  which
determination the Inspectors are so notified,  unless (a) the disclosure of such
Records is  necessary  to avoid or correct a  misstatement  or  omission  in any
Registration  Statement  or is  otherwise  required  under the 1933 Act, (b) the
release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final,  non-appealable subpoena
or order from a court or government body of competent  jurisdiction,  or (c) the
information  in such  Records has been made  generally  available  to the public
other than by  disclosure  in violation of this or any other  agreement of which
the  Inspector  and the Investor has  knowledge.  Each  Investor  agrees that it
shall,  upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court
or  governmental  body of competent  jurisdiction  or through other means,  give
prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake
appropriate  action to prevent  disclosure  of, or to obtain a protective  order
for, the Records deemed confidential.

            (i) The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure
of  information  concerning  an  Investor  provided  to the  Company  unless (i)
disclosure  of such  information  is  necessary  to comply with federal or state
securities  laws, (ii) the disclosure of such  information is necessary to avoid
or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration  Statement,  (iii) the
release of such  information  is ordered  pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable   order  from  a  court  or   governmental   body  of   competent
jurisdiction,  or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the
public other than by  disclosure  in  violation  of this  Agreement or any other
agreement.  The Company agrees that it shall,  upon learning that  disclosure of
such  information  concerning  an  Investor  is  sought  in  or  by a  court  or
governmental body of competent  jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt
written  notice to such  Investor  and allow such  Investor,  at the  Investor's
expense, to undertake  appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain
a protective order for, such information.

            (j) The Company  shall use its best efforts  either to cause all the
Registrable  Securities covered by a Registration  Statement (i) to be listed on
each securities  exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued
by the Company  are then  listed,  if any,  if the  listing of such  Registrable
Securities  is then  permitted  under  the  rules of such  exchange  or (ii) the
inclusion for quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc.
OTC Bulletin Board for such  Registrable  Securities.  The Company shall pay all
fees and  expenses in  connection  with  satisfying  its  obligation  under this
Section 3(j).


                                       5
<PAGE>

            (k)  The  Company  shall   cooperate  with  the  Investor  who  hold
Registrable  Securities  being  offered  and,  to  the  extent  applicable,   to
facilitate the timely  preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any
restrictive  legend)  representing  the  Registrable  Securities  to be  offered
pursuant to a Registration  Statement and enable such certificates to be in such
denominations  or amounts,  as the case may be, as the Investor  may  reasonably
request and registered in such names as the Investor may request.

            (l) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the  Registrable
Securities  covered by the  applicable  Registration  Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other  governmental  agencies or  authorities as may be
necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

            (m) The  Company  shall make  generally  available  to its  security
holders  as soon as  practical,  but not later than  ninety  (90) days after the
close of the period covered  thereby,  an earnings  statement (in form complying
with the provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering a twelve (12) month
period  beginning not later than the first day of the Company's  fiscal  quarter
next following the effective date of the Registration Statement.

            (n) The Company shall  otherwise use its best efforts to comply with
all  applicable  rules  and  regulations  of the  SEC  in  connection  with  any
registration hereunder.

            (o) Within two (2)  business  days  after a  Registration  Statement
which  covers  Registrable  Securities  is declared  effective  by the SEC,  the
Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver,
to the  transfer  agent  for such  Registrable  Securities  (with  copies to the
Investor  whose  Registrable   Securities  are  included  in  such  Registration
Statement)  confirmation  that such  Registration  Statement  has been  declared
effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

            (p) The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to
expedite and facilitate  disposition  by the Investor of Registrable  Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement.

      4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR.

      The Investor  agrees that,  upon receipt of any notice from the Company of
the  happening  of any event of the kind  described in Section 3(f) or the first
sentence of 3(e),  such Investor will  immediately  discontinue  disposition  of
Registrable  Securities pursuant to any Registration  Statement(s) covering such
Registrable  Securities  until  such  Investor's  receipt  of the  copies of the
supplemented  or amended  prospectus  contemplated by Section 3(e) or receipt of
notice that no supplement or amendment is required.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary,  the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver  unlegended
certificates  for  shares of Common  Stock to a  transferee  of an  Investor  in
accordance  with the terms of the  Investment  Agreement in connection  with any
sale of  Registrable  Securities  with  respect to which an Investor has entered
into a contract  for sale prior to the  Investor's  receipt of a notice from the
Company of the  happening of any event of the kind  described in Section 3(f) or
the first sentence of 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

      5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

      All  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  registrations,  filings  or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including,  without limitation, all
registration,  listing and qualifications fees,  printers,  legal and accounting

      6. INDEMNIFICATION.

      With  respect  to   Registrable   Securities   which  are  included  in  a
Registration Statement under this Agreement:

            (a) To the fullest  extent  permitted by law, the Company will,  and
hereby does, indemnify,  hold harmless and defend each Investor,  the directors,
officers, partners,  employees, agents,  representatives of, and each Person, if
any, who  controls  any Investor  within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934
Act (each,  an  "Indemnified  Person"),  against  any losses,  claims,  damages,
liabilities,  judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys'
fees,  amounts paid in settlement or expenses,  joint or several  (collectively,
"Claims") incurred in investigating,  preparing or defending any action,  claim,
suit, inquiry,  proceeding,  investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by
or before any court or governmental,  administrative or other regulatory agency,
body or the SEC,  whether  pending or threatened,  whether or not an indemnified
party is or may be a party thereto ("Indemnified Damages"), to which any of them
may become subject  insofar as such Claims (or actions or  proceedings,  whether
commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i)
any  untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue  statement  of a  material  fact in a
Registration Statement or any post-effective  amendment thereto or in any filing
made in connection with the  qualification  of the offering under the securities
or other "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are
offered  ("Blue Sky  Filing"),  or the  omission or alleged  omission to state a
material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any final  prospectus (as amended or  supplemented,
if the Company files any amendment  thereof or supplement  thereto with the SEC)
or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary
to make the statements made therein,  in light of the circumstances  under which
the  statements  therein were made,  not  misleading;  or (iii) any violation or
alleged  violation  by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law,
including,  without  limitation,  any  state  securities  law,  or any  rule  or
regulation  there  under  relating  to the  offer  or  sale  of the  Registrable
Securities  pursuant to a  Registration  Statement (the matters in the foregoing
clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively,  "Violations"). The Company shall
reimburse  the  Investor  and each  such  controlling  person  promptly  as such
expenses  are  incurred  and  are  due  and  payable,  for  any  legal  fees  or
disbursements or other reasonable  expenses  incurred by them in connection with
investigating  or  defending  any such  Claim.  Notwithstanding  anything to the
contrary  contained  herein,  the  indemnification  agreement  contained in this
Section 6(a):  (x) shall not apply to a Claim by an  Indemnified  Person arising
out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with information  furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person
expressly  for  use in  connection  with  the  preparation  of the  Registration
Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto;  (y) shall not be
available  to the extent  such Claim is based on a failure  of the  Investor  to
deliver  or to  cause to be  delivered  the  prospectus  made  available  by the
Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to
Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim
if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company,
which consent shall not be unreasonably  withheld.  Notwithstanding  anything to
the contrary herein or in any other  agreement  entered into between the Company
and the  Investor,  the  Company  acknowledges  and  agrees  that  it is  solely
responsible and shall indemnify each Indemnified  Person for the contents of any
registration  statement,  prospectus  or  other  filing  made  with  the  SEC or
otherwise  used in the  offering  of the  Company's  securities  (except as such
disclosure  relates solely to the Investor and then only to the extent that such
disclosure conforms with information furnished in writing by the Investor to the
Company),  even if the Investor or its agents as an accommodation to the Company
participate  or  assist  in the  preparation  of  such  registration  statement,
prospectus  or other SEC filing.  The Company shall retain its own legal counsel
to review,  edit,  confirm and do all things such  counsel  deems  necessary  or
desirable  to such  registration  statement,  prospectus  or other SEC filing to
ensure that it does not contain an untrue  statement or alleged untrue statement
of material  fact or omit or alleged to omit a material  fact  necessary to make
the  statements  made  therein,  in light of the  circumstances  under which the
statements were made, not misleading.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force
and  effect  regardless  of  any  investigation  made  by or on  behalf  of  the
Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable  Securities
by the Investor pursuant to Section 9 hereof.


                                       7
<PAGE>

            (b) In  connection  with a  Registration  Statement,  each  Investor
agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify,  hold harmless and defend, to the
same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company,
each of its  directors,  each of its officers,  employees,  representatives,  or
agents and each Person,  if any, who controls the Company  within the meaning of
the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each an "Indemnified Party"), against any Claim or
Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act,
the 1934 Act or otherwise,  insofar as such Claim or  Indemnified  Damages arise
out of or is based upon any Violation,  in each case to the extent,  and only to
the extent,  that such Violation  occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information  furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use
in connection with such  Registration  Statement;  and, subject to Section 6(d),
such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses  reasonably incurred by
them in connection  with  investigating  or defending any such Claim;  provided,
however,  that the  indemnity  agreement  contained in this Section 6(b) and the
agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such  settlement is effected  without
the  prior  written  consent  of  such  Investor,  which  consent  shall  not be
unreasonably withheld;  provided,  further,  however, that the Investor shall be
liable under this  Section  6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or  Indemnified
Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such  Investor as a result of the
sale of Registrable  Securities  pursuant to such Registration  Statement.  Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect  regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of
the   Registrable   Securities   by  the   Investor   pursuant   to  Section  9.
Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary contained herein, the  indemnification
agreement  contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any  prospectus  shall
not inure to the benefit of any  Indemnified  Party if the untrue  statement  or
omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new
prospectus  was delivered to each Investor  prior to such  Investor's use of the
prospectus to which the Claim relates.


                                       8

            (c) Promptly after receipt by an  Indemnified  Person or Indemnified
Party  under  this  Section  6 of notice of the  commencement  of any  action or
proceeding  (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim,
such  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified  Party  shall,  if a Claim in  respect
thereof is to be made  against  any  indemnifying  party  under this  Section 6,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement  thereof,
and the  indemnifying  party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying  party so desires,  jointly with any other  indemnifying
party similarly  noticed,  to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
mutually  satisfactory to the indemnifying  party and the Indemnified  Person or
the  Indemnified  Party,  as  the  case  may  be;  provided,  however,  that  an
Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel  with the fees and  expenses  of not more than one (1)  counsel for such
Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party to be paid by the indemnifying  party,
if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation  by such counsel of the Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party
and the  indemnifying  party would be  inappropriate  due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party  represented  by such counsel in such  proceeding.  The  Indemnified
Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in
connection  with any  negotiation  or defense of any such action or claim by the
indemnifying  party and shall furnish to the indemnifying  party all information
reasonably  available  to the  Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person  which
relates  to such  action  or  claim.  The  indemnifying  party  shall  keep  the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person fully apprised at all times as to the
status of the defense or any settlement  negotiations  with respect thereto.  No
indemnifying  party shall be liable for any  settlement of any action,  claim or
proceeding effected without its prior written consent;  provided,  however, that
the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably  withhold,  delay or condition its
consent.  No indemnifying party shall,  without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person,  consent to entry of any judgment or
enter into any  settlement  or other  compromise  which  does not  include as an
unconditional  term  thereof  the giving by the  claimant or  plaintiff  to such
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person of a release  from all  liability  in
respect to such claim or litigation.  Following  indemnification as provided for
hereunder,  the  indemnifying  party  shall be  subrogated  to all rights of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms
or corporations  relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.
The  failure  to  deliver  written  notice to the  indemnifying  party  within a
reasonable  time of the  commencement  of any such action shall not relieve such
indemnifying  party of any liability to the  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified
Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying  party is
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

            (d) The indemnification  required by this Section 6 shall be made by
periodic  payments of the amount thereof during the course of the  investigation
or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

            (e) The indemnity  agreements  contained herein shall be in addition
to (i) any  cause  of  action  or  similar  right  of the  Indemnified  Party or
Indemnified  Person  against  the  indemnifying  party or  others,  and (ii) any
liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

      7. CONTRIBUTION.

      To the extent any  indemnification  by an indemnifying party is prohibited
or  limited  by  law,  the  indemnifying   party  agrees  to  make  the  maximum
contribution  with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable
under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that:
(i) no seller of Registrable  Securities guilty of fraudulent  misrepresentation
(within  the  meaning of Section  11(f) of the 1933 Act)  shall be  entitled  to
contribution  from any seller of  Registrable  Securities  who was not guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable
Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds  received by
such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

      8. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.

      With a view to making  available  to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that
may at any time  permit the  Investor to sell  securities  of the Company to the
public without registration ("Rule 144") the Company agrees to:

            (a) make and keep public information  available,  as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144;

            (b) file  with the SEC in a timely  manner  all  reports  and  other
documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as
the Company  remains  subject to such  requirements  (it being  understood  that
nothing herein shall limit the Company's  obligations  under Section 4(c) of the
Investment  Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents as are
required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

            (c)  furnish  to  each  Investor  so  long  as  such  Investor  owns
Registrable  Securities,  promptly upon request,  (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied  with the reporting  requirements  of Rule 144, the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act,  (ii) a copy of the most recent  annual or  quarterly
report of the  Company  and such other  reports  and  documents  so filed by the
Company,  and (iii) such other  information  as may be  reasonably  requested to
permit  the  Investor  to sell  such  securities  pursuant  to Rule 144  without
registration.

      9. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

      Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may
be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively
or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investor who
then hold at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment
or waiver  effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon each
Investor and the  Company.  No such  amendment  shall be effective to the extent
that it applies to fewer than all of the holders of the Registrable  Securities.
No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a
waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same
consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

stockholders.  All  other  questions  concerning  the  construction,   validity,

internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect to any choice of
law or conflict of law  provision or rule (whether of the State of New Jersey or
any other  jurisdiction)  that would  cause the  application  of the laws of any

subject  to the  jurisdiction  of any such  court,  that  such  suit,  action or
proceeding is brought in an  inconvenient  forum or that the venue of such suit,
action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal
service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action
or  proceeding  by mailing a copy  thereof to such party at the address for such
notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute

manner  permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that
jurisdiction  or the  validity  or  enforceability  of  any  provision  of  this
Agreement in any other  jurisdiction.  EACH PARTY HEREBY  IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST,  A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION

Attention:

         Re:      ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We are counsel to Advanced  Communications  Technologies,  Inc., a Florida
corporation (the "Company"), and have represented the Company in connection with
that certain Investment  Agreement (the "Investment  Agreement") entered into by
and  among  the  Company  and the  Investor  named  therein  (collectively,  the
"Investor")  pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor  shares of its
Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common  Stock").  Pursuant to the
Purchase  Agreement,  the Company  also has entered into a  Registration  Rights
Agreement  with the Investor  (the  "Investor  Registration  Rights  Agreement")
pursuant  to which the  Company  agreed,  among other  things,  to register  the
Registrable  Securities (as defined in the Registration  Rights Agreement) under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").  In connection with the
Company's  obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement,  on ____________
____,  the Company filed a  Registration  Statement on Form  ________  (File No.
333-_____________)  (the  "Registration  Statement")  with  the  Securities  and
Exchange SEC (the "SEC") relating to the Registrable Securities which names each
of the Investor as a selling stockholder there under.

      In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC's
staff has advised us by  telephone  that the SEC has entered an order  declaring
the  Registration  Statement  effective  under  the 1933 Act at  [ENTER  TIME OF
EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge,  after
telephonic  inquiry  of a  member  of the  SEC's  staff,  that  any  stop  order
suspending its  effectiveness  has been issued or that any  proceedings for that
purpose  are  pending  before,  or  threatened  by, the SEC and the  Registrable
Securities  are  available  for  resale  under  the  1933  Act  pursuant  to the
Registration Statement.

                                              Very truly yours,

                                              [COMPANY COUNSEL]


                                              By:
