         responsibility for the cost of such re-spins shall be determined as
         provided in Section 4.4. GDA will need advance payment from Arkados for
         making such payments.

4.4      If a new production run is needed due to a logic design flaw or other
         defects for which Arkados is responsible, Arkados will be solely
         responsible for the incremental fees and costs associated with the new
         production run. If a new production run is needed due to problems,
         which relate to an aspect of the GDA Services for which GDA is
         responsible GDA will redo the required services free of charge to get
         to the new production but the incremental fees and costs associated
         with the new production run will be equally split between GDA and
         Arkados.

5.1      Nondisclosure Obligations. During the term of this Agreement and for a
         period of three (3) years thereafter, each Party shall maintain in
         confidence and use only for purposes of this Agreement any information
         supplied by the other Party (whether or not designated at the time of
         disclosure as "confidential" or the like) either in writing or verbally
         in connection with this Agreement, including information exchanged

         Information to its Affiliates, consultants, and outside contractors,
         strictly on a need-to-know basis, on the condition that such entities
         or persons shall have agreed in writing to keep the Information
         confidential for the same time periods and to the same extent as such
         Party is required to keep the Information confidential; and a Party may
         disclose such Information to government or other regulatory authorities
         to the extent that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to obtain
         patents or authorizations to conduct

                                                                    Page 7 of 16

         disclosure is required by applicable law or order of the court. The
         obligation not to disclose Information shall not apply to any part of
         such Information that (i) is or becomes patented, published, or
         otherwise part of the public domain other than by acts of the Party
         obligated not to disclose such Information or its Affiliates or sub
         licensees in contravention of this Agreement; or (ii) is disclosed to
         the receiving Party or its Affiliates by a Third Party, unless such
         Information was obtained by such Third Party directly or indirectly
         from the other Party to this Agreement on a confidential basis; or
         (iii) prior to disclosure under this Agreement, was already in the
         possession of the receiving Party or its Affiliates, unless such
         Information was obtained directly or indirectly from the other Party to
         this Agreement on a confidential basis.

5.2      Terms of This Agreement. Arkados and GDA each agrees not to disclose
         any terms or conditions of this Agreement to any Third Party without
         the prior written consent of the other Party hereto, except as required
         by applicable laws or except to such Party's existing or prospective
         investors, lenders or possible acquirers or merger partners that are
         bound by appropriate confidentiality undertakings.

5.4      Press Releases and Public Disclosure. No Party shall make a press
         release or public disclosure related to the Project, without first
         obtaining the written consent of the other Party, which consent may not
         be unreasonably withheld.

                                                                    Page 9 of 16

ARTICLE VIII               INDEMNITY

8.1      Each Party (the "Indemnifying Party") shall protect, defend, and,
         indemnify and hold harmless the other Party, its officers, directors,
         agents, employees, contractors, and representatives (the "Indemnified
         Party") from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, obligations,
         deficiencies, losses, damages, actions, suits, proceedings,
         assessments, judgments, or settlements, (including all reasonable
         attorneys' fees) (each a "Claim") arising out of the acts or omissions
         of the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates in connection with the work
         performed pursuant to this Agreement, excluding any Claim that is
         attributable to the willful misconduct or negligence of the Indemnified
         Party.

8.2      Each Party shall protect, defend, and, indemnify and hold harmless the
         other Party, its officers, directors, agents, employees, contractors,
         and representatives from and against all Claims arising out of a Third
         Party claim that the design of the Product infringes upon the
         intellectual property or other rights of such Third Party.

8.3      The Indemnifying Party's obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party
         is subject to the Indemnifying Party's compliance with the following:

         (a)      The Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in
                  writing promptly upon receipt of notification of a Claim. To
                  the extent an intentional delay materially prejudices the
                  Indemnifying Party's defense of a Claim, the Indemnifying
                  Party shall be relieved of the defense of that part of the
                  defense.

         (b)      The Indemnifying Party has sole control of the defense and all
                  related settlement negotiations, subject to the right of the
                  Indemnified Party to participate in and monitor such defense,
                  at its own cost and option and through its own counsel.

         (c)      The Indemnified Party provides the Indemnifying Party with the
                  assistance, information, and authority necessary to perform as
                  required above, provided that reasonable costs and expenses

                                                                   Page 10 of 16
<PAGE>

                  incurred by the Indemnified Party in providing such assistance
                  and information will be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party.

         (d)      The Indemnified Party is not an Affiliate of the third party
                  making the claim.

         other, and no product thereof, will be made available or re-exported,
         directly or indirectly, to any areas outside the United States except
         in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations of the Bureau of
         Export Administration in accordance with the Export Act (the provisions
         of this clause shall be extended in accordance with U.S. law or
         regulation).

11.2     FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the
         other Party nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this
         Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of

         causes beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party, including
         but not limited to fire or floods; embargoes, war, acts of war (whether
         war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, or civil commotions;
         strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances; acts of God; or acts,
         omissions, or delays in acting by any governmental authority or the

         under this Agreement and that when the causes of the failure or delay
         are removed or alleviated, the affected Party shall resume performance
         of its obligations hereunder, provided, however, that if the forece
         majeure event persist for a period of year or more, the Party may agree
         to terminate this Agreement without either Party being liable for such
         termination.

11.3     ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement may not be assigned or otherwise
         transferred, nor, except as expressly provided hereunder, may any right
         or obligations hereunder be assigned or transferred, by either Party
         without the written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that
         either Arkados or GDA may, without such consent, assign this Agreement
         and its rights and obligations thereunder (a) in connection with the
         transfer or sale of all or substantially all of its business, if such
         assets include substantially all of the assets relating to its
         performance of its respective obligations hereunder; (b) to a wholly
         owned subsidiary; or (c) in the event of its merger or consolidation
         with another company; provided that, in the case of an transaction
         involving a Party of the type described in subparagraph (a) or (c) of
         this provision, the transferee of the assets or the entity with which
         such Party is being merged or consolidated is not a competitor of the
         other Party. Any purported assignment in violation of the preceding
         sentence shall be void. Any permitted assignee shall assume all
         obligations of its assignor under this Agreement. Consent to any such
         assignment shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent
         to any subsequent assignment.

                                                                   Page 12 of 16
<PAGE>

11.4     SUBCONTRACTS. Arkados and GDA each may subcontract their respective
         obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other,
         provided that (i) such subcontracting does not result in the transfer
         of significant know-how to the subcontractor; (ii) the subcontractor
         has entered into a confidentiality agreement with the contracting Party
         on terms substantially equivalent to the requirements set forth in
         Article V; and (iii) the contracting Party reasonably supervises such
         contract work.

11.5     NO SOLICITATION. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of
         one (1) year thereafter, each party agrees not to recruit or solicit
         the services of any of the other's employees or contractors.

11.6     SEVERABILITY. Should one or several provisions of the Agreement be or
         become invalid or unenforceable by reason of such a violation, then the
         Parties hereto shall substitute, by mutual consent, valid provisions
         for such invalid provisions, which valid provisions in their economic
         effect come so close to the invalid provisions that it can be
         reasonably assumed that the Parties would have contracted this
         Agreement with those new provisions. In case such provisions cannot be
         found, the invalidity of one or several provisions of the Agreement
         shall not affect the validity of the Agreement as a whole, unless the
         invalid provisions are of such essential importance for this Agreement
         that it is to be reasonably assumed that the Parties would not have
         contracted this Agreement without the invalid provisions.

11.7     DISPUTE RESOLUTIONS. In case any dispute shall arise with respect to
         matters to be determined by the Steering Committee which cannot be
         resolved within a reasonable period of time, the Parties'
         representatives shall meet to attempt to resolve the matter prior to
         either Party taking any legal action, in respect thereof. If the
         Parties' representatives are unable to resolve any such dispute, such
         dispute shall be settled pursuant to final and binding arbitration
         conducted in the English language by a single arbitrator agreed by the
         Parties in New York, NY, USA, in accordance with the Commercial Rules
         of the American Arbitration Association applicable at the time such
         dispute arises, and judgment upon the award may be entered by any court
         of competent jurisdiction. . For purposes of clarification, the Parties
         agree neither to initiate nor to reopen any disputed matter in a court
         proceeding following arbitration but may use the assistance of the
         courts only to enforce any arbitration award. Arkados and GDA shall
         equally share the out-of-pocket costs of said arbitration, including
         the fees for the arbitrator, except that the Arkados and GDA each shall
         pay its respective expenses for legal representation and expert
         witnesses, if any.

11.8     NOTICES. Any notice or report required or permitted to be given or made
         under this Agreement by one of the Parties hereto to the other shall be
         in writing, delivered personally or by facsimile (and promptly
         confirmed by personal delivery or courier) or courier, postage prepaid,
         addressed to such other Party at its address indicated below, or to
