Company.  In  connection  with  Consultant  providing  such  financial  advisory
services  to  the  Company,  the  Company  shall  provide  Consultant  with  any
information that Consultant deems appropriate.  The Company hereby  acknowledges
that  Consultant  will  be  using  and  relying  on  said  information   without
independent  verification and that Consultant  assumes no responsibility for the
accuracy and completeness of any information  provided to it by the Company.  In
performance of these duties,  the Consultant  shall provide the Company with the
benefits of its best judgment and efforts.  It is understood and acknowledged by
the parties that the value of the  Consultant's  advice is not measurable in any
quantitative manner, and that the Consultant shall not be obligated to spend any
specific amount of time performing its duties hereunder.

     large through the dissemination of information.

          (c) Advising the Company about its financial structure and that of its

     private and/or public market for the Company's equity securities.

          (d) Advising the Company with respect to  acquisitions  in  connection
     with the possible  effects on the public  market for the  Company's  equity

     and the timing and  structure of any future  public  offering or private or
     public merger or private placement of its equity securities.

          Should the Company desire Consultant to provide any financial advisory
     service(s) not listed above, the Company and Consultant shall enter into an
     additional  engagement  letter to be executed by the parties  hereto at the
     commencement of the additional financial advisory service(s) to be rendered
     by Consultant.

     4. CONSULTANT'S  RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS.  The Company  acknowledges that
the  Consultant  or its  affiliates  is in the business of providing  financial,
investment banking and merger/acquisition services and consulting advice (of all
types contemplated by this Agreement) to others.  Nothing herein contained shall
be construed to limit or restrict the  Consultant  in  conducting  such business
with respect to others, or in rendering such advice to others.

     5. CONFIDENTIAL  INFORMATION.  In connection with the rendering of services
hereunder,   Consultant  has  been  or  will  be  furnished  with   confidential
information  concerning  the Company  including,  but not limited to,  financial
statements  and  information,  cost and expense  data,  production  data,  trade
secrets,  marketing and customer data, and such other  information not generally
obtained from public or published information or trade sources. Such information
shall be deemed  "Confidential  Material" and, except as  specifically  provided
herein,  shall not be disclosed by Consultant  without prior written  consent of
the Company.  In the event  Consultant  is required by  applicable  law or legal
process  to  disclose  any of  the  Confidential  Material,  it is  agreed  that
Consultant will deliver to the Company prompt notice of such  requirement  prior
to  disclosure of same to permit the Company to seek an  appropriate  protective
order  and/or  waive  compliance  of this  provision.  If, in the  absence  of a
protective order or receipt of written waiver, Consultant is nonetheless, in the
written  opinion of counsel,  compelled to disclose any  Confidential  Material,
Consultant may do so without  liability  hereunder  provided that notice of such
prospective  disclosure is delivered to the Company prior to actual  disclosure.
Following  the  termination  of this  Agreement  and a  written  request  by the
Company, Consultant shall deliver to the Company all Confidential Material.

     any action or omission of  Consultant  or any of its  officers,  directors,
     employees, agents,  representatives or stockholders in the course of, or in
     connection  with,  rendering or performing any services  hereunder.  Should
     Consultant  be found  liable for any acts or  omissions,  the  liability of
     Consultant  pursuant to this  Agreement  shall be limited to the  aggregate
     fees  received  by  Consultant  hereunder,  which  shall  not  include  any

time, either party may terminate the Agreement for any reason upon the provision
of thirty days prior written notice.

     8. SALES OR  DISTRIBUTIONS  OF SECURITIES.  If the  Consultant  assists the

rendering  invalid or  unenforceable  the remaining terms and provisions of this
Agreement or affecting  the  validity or  enforceability  of any of the terms or
provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this
Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted

                                     ANNEX A

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     Recognizing that  transactions of the type  contemplated in this engagement
sometimes  result  in  litigation  and that  National  Securities  Corporation's
("National") role is advisory, Bidville Inc. (the "Company") agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless National,  its affiliates (including Olympic Cascade Financial
Corporation) and their respective  officers,  directors,  employees,  agents and
controlling persons (collectively,  the "Indemnified Parties"), from and against
any losses,  claims,  damages and liabilities,  joint or several,  related to or
arising in any  manner  out of any  transaction,  proposal  or any other  matter
(collectively,  the  "Matters")  contemplated  by  the  engagement  of  National
hereunder,  and will promptly reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all expenses
(including  reasonable  fees and  expenses  of legal  counsel)  as  incurred  in
connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending
or  threatened  claim  related  to or  arising  in any  manner out of any Matter
contemplated  by  the  engagement  of  National  hereunder,  or  any  action  or
proceeding arising therefrom (collectively,  "Proceedings"), whether or not such
Indemnified Party is a formal party to any such Proceeding.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing,  the Company  shall not be liable in respect of any  losses,  claims,
damages,  liabilities or expenses that a court of competent  jurisdiction  shall
have determined by final judgment  resulted solely from the gross  negligence or
willful  misconduct of an Indemnified  Party. The Company further agrees that it
will not,  without the prior written consent of National,  settle  compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened  Proceeding in
respect  of  which  indemnification  may be  sought  hereunder  (whether  or not
National  or any  Indemnified  Party is an  actual  or  potential  party to such
Proceeding),   unless  such  settlement,   compromise  or  consent  includes  an
unconditional  release of National and each other  Indemnified  Party  hereunder
from all liability arising out of such Proceeding.

     The Company  agrees that if any  indemnification  or  reimbursement  sought
pursuant  to  this  letter  were  for  any  reason  not to be  available  to any
Indemnified  Party or  insufficient  to hold it  harmless  as and to the  extent
contemplated  by this letter,  then the Company  shall  contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in respect of losses,  claims, damages
and  liabilities  in such  proportion as is  appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits to the Company and its  stockholders  on the one hand,  and National on
the other,  in  connection  with the  Matters to which such  indemnification  or
reimbursement relates or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law,
not only such relative  benefits but also the relative faults of such parties as
well as any  other  equitable  considerations.  It is  hereby  agreed  that  the




                                       7
<PAGE>


relative  benefits to the Company and/or its  stockholders  and to National with
respect to National's engagement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
(i) the total  value paid or  received  or to be paid or received by the Company
and/or its stockholders pursuant to the Matters (whether or not consummated) for
which  National  is  engaged to render  services  bears to (ii) the fees paid to
National in connection with such  engagement.  In no event shall the Indemnified
Parties  contribute  or  otherwise  be  liable  for an  amount  in excess of the
aggregate  amount  of  fees  actually  received  by  National  pursuant  to such
engagement  (excluding  amounts  received by National  as  reimbursement  of the
expenses).

     The  Company  further  agrees  that no  Indemnified  Party  shall  have any
liability (whether direct or indirect,  in contract or tort or otherwise) to the
Company for or in connection with  National's  engagement  hereunder  except for
losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or expenses  that a court of  competent
jurisdiction  shall have  determined by final judgment  resulted solely from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. The indemnity,
reimbursement  and contribution  obligations of the Company shall be in addition
to any liability  which the Company may otherwise have and shall be binding upon
and  inure  to the  benefit  of any  successors,  assigns,  heirs  and  personal
representatives of the Company or an Indemnified Party.

     The indemnity,  reimbursement and contribution  provisions set forth herein
shall  remain  operative  and in full  force and  effect  regardless  of (i) any
withdrawal,  termination or consummation of or failure to initiate or consummate
any Matter referred to herein,  (ii) any  investigation  made by or on behalf of
any party hereto or any person controlling  (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act of 1933 as amended,  or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934,  as  amended)  any  party  hereto,  (iii)  any  termination  or the
completion  or  expiration  of this  letter of  National's  engagement  and (iv)
whether or not National shall, or shall not be called upon to, render any formal
or informal advice in the course of such engagement.
