4.   Confidentiality  by the  Consultant.  The  Consultant  will not,  except as
     -----------------------------------
     authorized  or required by the  Consultant's  duties  hereunder,  reveal or
     divulge  to  any  person  or  companies  any  information   concerning  the
     organization,  business,  finances,  transactions  or other  affairs of the
     Company, or of any of its subsidiaries,  which may come to the Consultant's
     knowledge  during the Term and during the  continuance  of this  Consulting
     Agreement,   and  the  Consultant   will  keep  in  complete   secrecy  all
     confidential  information  entrusted to the  Consultant and will not use or
     attempt to use any such information in any manner which may injure or cause
     loss either directly or indirectly to the Company's respective  businesses.
     This  restriction  will  continue  to apply after the  termination  of this
     Consulting Agreement without limit in point of time but will cease to apply

5.   Indemnification.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold  Consultant (the

     The Company agrees that it shall also reimburse the Indemnified  Person for
     any attorney's and costs incurred in enforcing this Indemnification against
     the Company.

6.   No Indemnification.  This indemnity shall not apply, however, where a court

     perform  its  obligations   hereunder  to  reimburse   Consultant  for  its
     attorney's fees and expenses).

7.   Entire  Agreement.   This  Consulting   Agreement  sets  forth  the  entire
     -----------------
     understanding  of the parties  relating to the subject matter  hereof,  and
     supersedes  and  cancels  any  prior  communications,  understandings,  and
     agreements  between  the  parties.  This  Consulting  Agreement  cannot  be
     modified  or changed,  nor can any of its  provision  be waived,  except by
     written agreement signed by all parties.
