                              CONSULTING AGREEMENT

     This  Consulting  Agreement  is  made  and  effective  as of the 1st day of
September,  2003 (the  "Effective  Date"),  by and between  National  Securities
Corporation,  Washington corporation (the "Consultant"),  and NoBidding, Inc., a
New Jersey corporation (the "Company").

     In  consideration  of and for the mutual  promises and covenants  contained
herein,  and  for  other  good  and  valuable  consideration,  the  receipt  and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged,  the parties hereto hereby agree as
follows:

     1. PURPOSE AND TERM. The Company  hereby  retains the  Consultant  upon the
terms and conditions  contained herein for a period of seven (7) months from the
Effective Date (the "Initial Term"). The Initial Term of this Agreement shall be
extended (the "Extended Term") only by written agreement of the parties hereto.

     2. DUTIES OF  CONSULTANT.  During the Initial Term and any Extended Term of
this  Agreement  the  Consultant  will provide the Company with such regular and
customary consulting advice as is reasonably requested by the Company, including
but not limited to,  rendering  advice and  assistance  in  connection  with the
negotiation  and  preparation  of   acquisitions,   mergers,   and/or  strategic
alliances,  provided  that the  Consultant  shall not be required  to  undertake
duties  not  reasonably  within  the scope of the  consulting  advisory  service
contemplated by this Agreement. 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 be obligated to render advice,  upon the
request of the Company,  in good faith,  but shall not be obligated to spend any
specific amount of time in doing so.

     3. RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS. The Company  acknowledges that the Consultant
is in the business  of,  among other  things,  providing  financial  service and
consulting  advice  (of all types  contemplated  by this  Agreement)  to others.
Nothing herein  contained shall be construed to limit or restrict the Consultant
from rendering such services or advice to others.

     4.  CONSULTING  FEE. The Company shall pay the  Consultant a consulting fee
(the "Fee") of $20,000 per month,  with the first monthly  payment  payable upon
execution of this Agreement and,  thereafter,  each remaining monthly payment of
$20,000 shall be payable in advance commencing on the first monthly  anniversary
of  this  Agreement.  The  Consultant  may,  at its  option,  immediately  cease
performance  of services  under this  Agreement  if the Fee is not paid  timely.
Alternatively,  and in its sole discretion,  the Consultant may perform services
for the Company under this Agreement  although accrued Fees remains unpaid or in
arrears.  In doing so,  however,  the Consultant  shall not become  obligated to
continue  such  services,  nor  shall it waive  its  entitlement  to or right to
collect any  payable  but unpaid Fee from the Company at any time.  In the event
the Company  closes any debt or equity  financing  in which net  proceeds to the
Company  exceed  $1,000,000.00,  then  within 20 days after the  closing of such
financing,  the Company shall pay Consultant all Fee owing under this Agreement,
both accrued and shall also prepay the balance of the Fee which shall become due
under this  Agreement  through the end of the Initial  Term.  In any event,  the
Company shall pay the Consultant all Fee owing no later than March 31, 2004.
