     THIS CONSULTING AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made by and between World Energy
Solutions,  Inc.,  a  Florida  corporation  ("WES" or the  "Company"),  with its
principal place of business located at 3900A 31st Street North, St.  Petersburg,
Florida 33714 and George Walker ("Consultant"),  and is effective as of the date
set forth below.

     WES and Consultant may be collectively referred to herein as the "Parties."

     The Parties to this Agreement state and acknowledge as follows:

     Section 1 - Recitals - The  Company is engaged in the  design,  manufacture
and sale of transient surge suppression devices and is a provider of other goods
and services in the energy conservation and management industry.

     Consultant has  represented to WES that it has the skill,  experience,  and
expertise necessary to provide WES with the consulting services  contemplated by
the Parties to this Agreement.

     Based on Consultant's representation, WES desires to engage the services of
Consultant as set forth herein,  and Consultant desires to provide such services
to WES pursuant to this Agreement.

     In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and
valuable  consideration,   the  receipt  and  sufficiency  of  which  is  hereby
acknowledged, the Company and the Consultant agree as follows:

     Section 2 - Effective  Date - Consultant  shall begin to render  consulting
services to the Company as of the date set forth  below.  If WES has  previously
engaged  Consultant,  pursuant to a different  agreement,  this Agreement  shall
supercede it, shall take priority over it, and all previous  agreements relating
to the  subject  matter of this  Agreement  shall be deemed null and void except
that  all  prohibitions   against   Consultant   misappropriating   or  misusing
confidential  information,  trade  secrets and  soliciting  clients of WES shall
continue to be enforceable  back to the original date of execution of such other
agreements or providing of consulting services.

     Section 3 - Independent  Contractor - The parties  hereby  acknowledge  the
Consultant is an  independent  contractor of WES and is not authorized to act on
behalf of WES as its  agent,  except as may be  specifically  agreed  otherwise.
Consultant  shall have full  control  over the manner in which its  services are
rendered  hereunder.  Nothing in this Agreement or the course of conduct between
the parties shall be deemed to constitute an employment,  agency, joint venture,
partnership or any other type of relationship between the parties other than the
independent contractor status established hereby.  Consultant shall not have the
right or power to bind WES to any contracts or agreements  with any third party,
nor shall Consultant have the right or power to direct any operations of WES not
authorized  specifically by WES. The  relationship  created by this Agreement is
that of a contract for  services.  Consultant  shall be solely  responsible  for
payment  of all taxes as may be imposed  on any  income  derived  by  Consultant
hereunder  and for any and all other  liabilities  arising  out of  Consultant's
independent  status.  To the  extent  that WES pays any  taxes or other  sums on
Consultant's  behalf for any reason,  Consultant  shall  promptly  indemnify  or
reimburse WES for any and all such sums.

     Section 4 - Nature of Services and Duties -  Consultant  shall be available
to consult with Principal concerning all matters pertaining to the organization,
operation and  administration  of Principal's  business  activities,  including,
generally,  all issues of concern or import in the ongoing  growth,  development
and related business affairs of the Principal as may be brought to the attention
of  Consultant  by  Principal.  Specifically,   Consultant  shall  consult  with
Principal regarding the acquisition and/or design of products for sale by WES in
its business,  including the providing of product design engineering services as
requested by WES. Consultant shall also provide services in an ongoing manner in
the following potential business areas if requested by Principal:

     opportunities  as may be  contemplated  by Principal or as may arise in the
     course of this Agreement;

          b. Assistance  to the  Principal  in  negotiation  of the  terms  and

     third  parties,   brokering   arrangements  if  any,  strategic   planning,
     development  of  mergers,  affiliations,  conglomerations,  and other  such
     business  ventures  as may be  contemplated  between  Principal  and  other
     entities;

          c. Assistance in procuring  administrative  services,  if any, for the
     benefit of  Principal  as may be requested by Principal in reference to the
     Principal's  operations,  including  but  not  limited  to  preparation  of
     financial records,  periodic public reports,  and all matters of marketing,
     finance, business planning, and business networking;

          d. Submit to the Principal,  when  requested,  written  reports of the
     status of Consultant's efforts under this Agreement; and

     one or more  potential  rounds of  equity  financing,  a merger or  reverse
     merger,  a public  offering,  opportunities  for acquisitions of companies,
     assets or properties, and other issues pertaining to the foregoing.

     Consultant accepts this engagement,  subject to the general  supervision of
and pursuant to the orders and direction of WES.  Consultant  shall perform such
other  duties as are  requested  and  customarily  performed by one holding such
position in other, same, or similar businesses or enterprises as that engaged in

from time to time.  Consultant  shall report  exclusively to the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company.

     Section  5  -  Compensation  of  the  Consultant  -  WES  shall  compensate

          b. Issuance  of  25,000  shares  of common  stock of the  Company  in

     Section 7 - Restrictive Covenant -

          a. WES is engaged in the  design,  manufacture  and sale of  transient
     surge suppression  devices and is a provider of other goods and services in
     the energy  conservation  and  management  industry.  Consultant  expressly
     covenants  and agrees that during this  engagement  and for a period of six
     (6) months following termination of the engagement,  whether termination is
     by WES, with or without cause, wrongful discharge,  or for any other reason
     whatsoever,  or by Consultant (such period of time is hereinafter  referred
     to  as  the  "Restrictive  Period"),  Consultant  shall  not,  directly  or
     indirectly, for itself or himself, or on behalf of others, as an individual
     on Consultant's  own account,  or as a partner,  joint venturer,  employee,
     agent,  salesman,  contractor,  officer,  director  or  otherwise,  for any
     person, partnership, firm, corporation, or other entity, enter into, engage
     in,  accept  employment  from, or  participate  in, any business that is in
     competition  with the  business  of WES  within a 200  mile  radius  of any
     business location of WES.

          b. Without  limiting  the  restriction  of  Paragraph  7(a),   above,
     Consultant   specifically   agrees  that  during  the  Restrictive  Period,
     Paragraph 7(a) prohibits Consultant, in any of the capacities identified in
     Paragraph  7(a),  from  soliciting  and/or  accepting  business  from WES's
     customers  or  dealers.  Consultant  acknowledges  and agrees that the term
     "customers"  includes  any  individual  that has  purchased  any product or
     service from WES and/or any entity that is wholly or partially owned by the
     Company  (all  of  such  entities  being  hereinafter  referred  to as  the
     "Affiliated  Entities"),  that has attended any seminar or training seminar
     produced  or promoted by WES and/or the  Affiliated  Entities,  or that has
     otherwise  responded to any  advertisement  disseminated  by WES and/or the
     Affiliated Entities.

          c. This  covenant  is given and made by  Consultant  to induce  WES to
     engage   Consultant,   and  Consultant   acknowledges  the  sufficiency  of
     consideration for this covenant.

          d. This covenant shall be construed as an agreement independent of any
     other  provision in this  Agreement and the existence of any claim or cause
     of action of  Consultant  against WES or any  Affiliated  Entity  shall not
     constitute a defense to the enforcement of this covenant. WES has performed
     all  obligations  entitling it to this  covenant  and it is  therefore  not
     executory or otherwise subject to rejection under the Bankruptcy Code.

          e. Consultant  agrees that these covenants are supported by legitimate
     business  interests,   including,  but  not  limited  to:  WES's  valuable,
     confidential  business  information  and  "trade  secrets"  as  defined  in
     Chapters 688 and 812 of the Florida  Statutes,  which include,  but are not
     limited to, the WES's unique product designs,  marketing plans, advertising
     strategy and/or methodology for doing business,  business plans,  financial
     plans,  forms,  training  manuals and customer  lists,  which may have been
     provided to the Consultant solely for use in WES's business,  and which the
     Consultant  agrees have been developed  through the WES's  expenditure of a
     great  amount of time,  money and effort to refine  other  existing  plans,
     forms and lists in the industry,  and which the  Consultant  agrees contain
     detailed  information that could not be  independently  created from public
     sources.

          f. Consultant  agrees that WES's  legitimate  business  interests also
     include,  but are not limited to,  extraordinary  and specialized  training
     provided  to   Consultant   by  WES,   through,   among  other  things  and
     methodologies,  WES's comprehensive  multi-product  integration approach to
     energy conservation for commercial, governmental, industrial facilities and
     residential  structures as well as training  presentations  regarding same.
     Consultant  acknowledges and agrees that he has received  extraordinary and
     specialized  training  from WES and that  without  such  extraordinary  and
     specialized training, he would be unable to successfully perform the duties
     required under this Agreement.

          g. Consultant  agrees that this covenant is  reasonably  necessary to
     protect the WES's legitimate business interests, including, but not limited
     to, the interests identified in Sections 7(b), 7(e) and 7(f), above.

          h. This covenant may be enforced by the WES's assignee or successor or
     any of the Affiliated Entities and Consultant  acknowledges and agrees that
     the Affiliated Entities are intended beneficiaries of this Agreement.

          i. If any portion of this covenant is held by an arbitration  panel or
     court of competent  jurisdiction to be  unreasonable,  arbitrary or against
     public policy for any reason,  this covenant shall be divisible as to time,
     geographic  area and line of  business  and  shall be  enforceable  as to a
     reasonable time, area and line of business.

          j. If  the  Consultant  violates  the  Restrictive  Covenant,  in any
     capacity  identified  herein,  any and all sales by Consultant for himself,
     other individual(s),  partnerships,  corporations,  joint ventures,  or any
     other entity with which he is associated, shall be conclusively presumed to
     have been made by the WES, but for the violation.

          k. WES and Consultant  agree that,  should WES be granted  preliminary
     injunctive  relief for alleged  violation of Consultant of the  Restrictive
     Covenant,  an injunction bond of no more than $2,500.00 shall be sufficient
     to indemnify the  Consultant  for any costs or damages that he or she might
     incur if the court determines that the Consultant was wrongfully enjoined.

          l. Consultant   agrees  that  any  failure  of  WES  to  enforce  the
     Restrictive  Covenant against any other Consultant,  for any reason,  shall
     not constitute a defense to enforcement of the Restrictive Covenant.

     Section 8 - Restrictive  Covenant-Remedies  - WES and Consultant agree that
in the  event of a  breach  of the  Restrictive  Covenant,  such a breach  would
irreparably injure WES and would leave it with no adequate remedy at law, and if
legal  proceedings  should have to be brought by WES to enforce the  Restrictive
Covenant, WES shall be entitled to all available civil remedies, including:

          a. Temporary  and  permanent   injunctive   relief   restraining  the
     Consultant from violating,  directly or indirectly, the restrictions of the
     Restrictive  Covenant in any capacity  identified in Section 7, supra,  and
     restricting  third  parties from aiding and abetting any  violations of the
     Restrictive Covenant.

          b. Attorney's fees in arbitration, trial and appellate courts.

          c. Costs and  expenses  of  investigation  and  litigation,  including
     expert fees, deposition costs, bond premiums, and other costs and expenses.

          d. Nothing in this  Agreement  shall be construed as  prohibiting  WES
     from  pursuing  any other legal or equitable  remedies  available to it for
     breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenant.

     Section 9 -  Confidentiality  Agreement - Consultant agrees to the terms of
the Confidentiality  Agreement attached hereto as Addendum A and has signed that
Agreement. Consultant further acknowledges that WES owns, and neither Consultant
nor its principal  acquires any proprietary  interest in, WES product design and
performance data, client files, client lists,  know-how,  business  information,
discoveries,  inventions or improvements that Consultant  develops while engaged
by WES and agrees that Consultant  will provide all such  information to WES for
WES to seek appropriate protection.

          a. Consultant  also  acknowledges  that the WES's product  design and
     performance  information  and its  customer/client  list  maintained on the
     WES's database and in the WES's files was compiled by the WES's expenditure
     of a great  amount of time,  money  and  effort  and that such  information
     contains  sufficient  detail that could not be created  independently  from
     public  sources.  Accordingly,  Consultant  agrees  that the WES's  product
     design and performance  information and customer/client  list constitutes a
     "trade secret" and is subject to protection under the Florida Uniform Trade
     Secrets Act.

          b. Consultant agrees that upon termination of the engagement,  whether
     termination is by the WES, with or without  cause,  or for any other reason
     whatsoever,  or by the Consultant,  Consultant shall return all copies,  in
     whatever  form,  including hard copies and computer  disks,  of WES product
     design and  performance  information and such  customer/client  list to the
     WES,  and  Consultant  shall  delete  any copy of WES  product  design  and
     performance  information and the customer/client  list on any computer file
     or database  maintained  by  Consultant.  Further,  Consultant  agrees that
     unauthorized retention of any such copies shall constitute "civil theft" as
     such term is defined in Chapter 772 of the Florida Statutes.

          c. Consultant  also  agrees  that  Consultant  shall not, at any time
     following  termination  of engagement,  whether  termination is by the WES,
     with  or  without  cause,  wrongful  discharge,  or for  any  other  reason
     whatsoever,  or by the  Consultant,  use or disclose WES product design and
     performance  information  or the WES's  customer/client  list,  directly or
     indirectly,  for  himself  or  herself,  or  on  behalf  of  others,  as an
     individual on Consultant's  own account,  or as a partner,  joint venturer,
     Consultant,  agent, salesman,  contractor,  officer, director or otherwise,
     for any person, partnership, firm, corporation, or other entity.

     Section 10 - Importance of Certain  Clauses - Consultant and WES state that
the Restrictive  Covenant and Confidentiality  Agreement  incorporated into this
contract are material  terms of this  contract  and all parties  understand  the
importance of such provisions to the ongoing  business of WES. As such,  because
WES's continued  business and viability depend on the protection of such secrets
and  non-competition,  these clauses are  interpreted by the parties to have the
widest and most expansive  applicability as may be allowed by law and Consultant
understands and acknowledges his or her understanding of same.

     Section 11 -  Consideration - Consultant  acknowledges  and agrees that the
engagement  contemplated  by this  Agreement  and the  execution  by WES of this
Agreement  constitute full, adequate and sufficient  consideration to Consultant
for the Consultant's duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement.

     Section  12  -  Indebtedness  -  If,  during  the  course  of  Consultant's
engagement  under this  Agreement,  Consultant  becomes  indebted to WES for any
reason, WES may, if it so elects, set off any sum due to WES from Consultant and
collect from Consultant any remaining balance.

     Section 13 - The  Consultant  Shall not Contract  for WES - The  Consultant
shall not have the right to make any contracts or  commitments  for or on behalf
of the WES without first obtaining the express consent of the WES.

     Section  14 -  Indemnity  -  Consultant  shall  indemnify  WES and hold WES
harmless for any and all damages,  liabilities,  settlements,  costs, judgments,
arbitration  awards,  administrative  fines and attorneys  fees arising from any
acts,  omissions or decisions made by Consultant while  performing  services for
WES, where such acts and/or decisions are determined by arbitrators,  a court or
jury to be  fraudulent,  negligent,  and/or to  constitute a breach of fiduciary
duty or in the event WES, in the exercise of its business  judgment,  determines
to settle any claim made by any  individual  against the Company  regarding  the
conduct  of  Consultant.  Any  amount  due and owing to the  Company  under this
paragraph  may  be  collected  at  the  Company's  discretion  from  outstanding
compensation otherwise payable to Consultant.

     Section 15 - Effect of Partial  Invalidity - The  invalidity of any portion
of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of any other  provision.  In the

agree that the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

as are  specifically  set  forth  in this  Agreement  and  each  of the  Parties
acknowledges  that they have not  relied  upon any  representation  of any third
Party in executing this Agreement,  but rather have relied  exclusively on their
own judgment in entering into this Agreement.

     Section 17 - Assignment - WES may sell, assign or transfer its interest and
rights  under this  Agreement  at its sole  discretion  and without  approval of
Consultant.  All rights and entitlements arising from this Agreement,  including
but not limited to those  protective  covenants  and  prohibitions  set forth in
paragraph 7 herein,  shall inure to the  benefit of any  purchaser,  assignor or

     4.1 Initial Term;  Renewal.  Unless  otherwise  terminated  pursuant to the
provisions  of Section 4.2, the  consulting  relationship  under this  Agreement
shall  commence on the Effective Date and continue in effect for a period of one
(1)  year  (the  "Initial  Term").   Thereafter,  the  term  of  the  consulting
relationship  under this  Agreement  shall be extended for  successive  one-year
periods subject to either party's right to terminate the consulting relationship
at the end of the  Initial  Term or on any  subsequent  anniversary  thereof  by
giving the other party at least 10 days'  written  notice prior to the effective
date of such termination.

     4.2 Early Termination. The consulting relationship under this Agreement may
be  terminated  prior to the end of the Initial  Term or any renewal term by the
death of the  Consultant,  the  disability  of the  Consultant  resulting in the
inability of the  Consultant to perform the  consulting  service,  or by written
notice from the Company  that,  in the  Company's  sole  determination:  (a) the
Consultant has refused, failed, or is unable to render consulting services under
this Agreement;  (b) the Consultant has breached any of the  Consultant's  other
obligations  under  this  Agreement;  or (c) the  Consultant  has  engaged or is
engaging in conduct that in the Company's sole  determination  is detrimental to
the Company. If the consulting relationship is terminated for any of the reasons
set  forth  in the  preceding  sentence,  the  right  of the  Consultant  to the
compensation set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement shall cease on the date of
such  termination,  and the  Company  shall  have no further  obligation  to the
Consultant under any of the provisions of this Agreement.

     4.3 Effect of Termination. Termination of the consulting relationship shall
not affect the  provisions  of Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8, which  provisions  shall
survive any termination in accordance with their terms.

SECTION 5.  DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

     The Consultant  acknowledges  that the Company's trade secrets,  private or
secret  processes as they exist from time to time,  and  information  concerning
products, developments,  manufacturing techniques, new product plans, equipment,
inventions,   discoveries,  patent  applications,  ideas,  designs,  engineering
drawings,  sketches,  renderings,  other drawings,  manufacturing and test data,
computer  programs,   progress  reports,   materials,   costs,   specifications,
processes,  methods, research,  procurement and sales activities and procedures,
promotion  and pricing  techniques,  and credit and  financial  data  concerning
customers of the Company and its subsidiaries,  as well as information  relating
to the management,  operation,  or planning of the Company and its  subsidiaries
(the "Proprietary Information") are valuable,  special, and unique assets of the
Company and its subsidiaries,  access to and knowledge of which may be essential
to the performance of the Consultant's duties under this Agreement.  In light of
the highly  competitive  nature of the  industry  in which the  Company  and its
subsidiaries   conduct  their   businesses,   the  Consultant  agrees  that  all
Proprietary   Information  obtained  by  the  Consultant  as  a  result  of  the
Consultant's  relationship  with  the  Company  and its  subsidiaries  shall  be
considered confidential. In recognition of this fact, the Consultant agrees that
the Consultant will not, during and after the Consulting Period, disclose any of
such  Proprietary  Information to any person or entity for any reason or purpose
whatsoever,  and the Consultant will not make use of any Proprietary Information
for the  Consultant's  own  purposes or for the  benefit of any other  person or
entity (except the Company and its subsidiaries) under any circumstances.

SECTION 6.  NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT

     In  order  to  further  protect  the  confidentiality  of  the  Proprietary
Information  and  in  recognition  of  the  highly  competitive  nature  of  the
industries in which the Company and its subsidiaries  conduct their  businesses,
and for the  consideration  set forth herein,  the Consultant  further agrees as
follows:

     6.1 Restriction on Competition. During and for the period commencing on the
Effective  Date and  ending  on the date on which  the  Consultant's  consulting
relationship  with the Company  terminates,  the Consultant will not directly or
indirectly engage in any Business Activities  (hereinafter defined),  other than
on behalf of the Company or its  subsidiaries,  whether such engagement is as an
officer,  director,  proprietor,  employee,  partner,  investor (other than as a
holder of less than 1% of the  outstanding  capital  stock of a  publicly-traded
corporation),   consultant,   advisor,  agent,  or  other  participant,  in  any
geographic  area in  which  the  products  or  services  of the  Company  or its
subsidiaries  have  been  distributed  or  provided  during  the  period  of the
Consultant's  consulting  relationship  with the  Company.  For purposes of this
Agreement,  the term "Business  Activities" shall mean any business in which the
Company is actively  engaged as of the  termination of this  Agreement  together
with all other  activities  engaged in by the Company or any of its subsidiaries
at any time during the Consultant's  consulting  relationship  with the Company,
and  activities  in any way  related  to  activities  with  respect to which the
Consultant renders consulting services under this Agreement.

     6.2  Dealings  with  Customers  of the  Company.  During and for the period
commencing  on  the  Effective  Date  and  ending  on  the  date  on  which  the
Consultant's consulting relationship with the Company terminates, the Consultant
will not directly or indirectly engage in any of the Business  Activities (other
than on behalf of the  Company or its  subsidiaries)  by  supplying  products or
providing  services to any  customer  with whom the Company or its  subsidiaries
have done any  business  during the  consulting  relationship  with the Company,
whether as an officer, director, proprietor,  employee, partner, investor (other
than as a holder of less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding  capital stock
of  a  publicly  traded  corporation),  consultant,  advisor,  agent,  or  other
participant.

     6.3  Assistance  to Others.  During and for the  period  commencing  on the
Effective  Date and  ending  on the date on which  the  Consultant's  consulting
relationship  with the Company  terminates,  the Consultant will not directly or
indirectly  assist  others in engaging in any of the Business  Activities in any
manner prohibited to the Consultant under this Agreement.

     6.4  Company's  Employees.  During  and for the  period  commencing  on the
Effective  Date and  ending  on the date on which  the  Consultant's  consulting
relationship  with the Company  terminates,  the Consultant will not directly or
indirectly  induce  employees  of the  Company  or any  of its  subsidiaries  or
affiliates to engage in any activity  hereby  prohibited to the Consultant or to
terminate their employment.

SECTION 7.  INTERPRETATION

     It is expressly  understood and agreed that although the Consultant and the
Company  consider  the  restrictions  contained  in  Sections  5 and  6 of  this
Agreement  reasonable  for the purpose of preserving  the goodwill,  proprietary
rights, and going concern value of the Company and its subsidiaries,  if a final
judicial  determination is made by a court having  jurisdiction that the time or
territory  or  any  other  restriction  contained  in  Sections  5  and  6 is an
unenforceable restriction on the activities of the Consultant, the provisions of
such restriction shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply
as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent as such court may
judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable.  Alternatively,  if the court
referred to above finds that any  restriction  contained  in Sections 5 and 6 or
any remedy  provided in Section 9 of this Agreement is  unenforceable,  and such
restriction  or remedy  cannot be  amended  so as to make it  enforceable,  such
finding  shall not affect the  enforceability  of any of the other  restrictions
contained  in this  Agreement  or the  availability  of any  other  remedy.  The
provisions of Sections 5 and 6 shall in no respect limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of the Consultant under other agreements with the Company.

SECTION 8.  DESIGNS, INVENTIONS, PATENTS AND COPYRIGHTS

     8.1 Intellectual Property.  The Consultant shall promptly disclose,  grant,
and assign to the  Company  for its sole use and  benefit  any and all  designs,
inventions,  improvements,  technical information,  know-how and technology, and
suggestions  relating  in  any  way  to  the  products  of  the  Company  or its
subsidiaries  or capable of  beneficial  use by  customers  to whom  products or
services  of the  Company or its  subsidiaries  are sold or  provided,  that the
Consultant may conceive,  develop, or acquire during the Consultant's consulting
relationship  with the Company or its subsidiaries  (whether or not during usual
working  hours),  together  with all  copyrights,  trademarks,  design  patents,
patents, and applications for copyrights,  trademarks,  design patents, patents,
divisions of pending patent  applications,  applications  for reissue of patents
and specific  assignments of such  applications  that may at any time be granted
for or upon any such designs, inventions,  improvements,  technical information,
know-how, or technology (the "Intellectual Property").

     8.2  Assignments  and  Assistance.  In  connection  with the  rights of the
Company to the Intellectual  Property, the Consultant shall promptly execute and
deliver such applications,  assignments,  descriptions, and other instruments as
may be  necessary or proper in the opinion of the Company to vest in the Company
title to the  Intellectual  Property  and to enable  the  Company  to obtain and
maintain the entire right and title to the Intellectual  Property throughout the
world.  The  Consultant  shall  also  render to the  Company,  at the  Company's
expense,  such  assistance  as the  Company may  require in the  prosecution  of
applications for said patents or reissues thereof, in the prosecution or defense
of  interferences  which may be declared  involving any of said  applications or
patents,  and in any litigation in which the Company or its  subsidiaries may be
involved relating to the Intellectual Property.

     8.3 Copyrights. The Consultant agrees to, and hereby grants to the Company,
title to all copyrightable material first designed, produced, or composed in the
course of or pursuant to the  performance  of work under this  Agreement,  which
material  shall be deemed  "works made for hire" under Title 17,  United  States
Code, Section 1.01 of the Copyright Act of 1976. The Consultant hereby grants to
the Company a royalty-free,  nonexclusive, and irrevocable license to reproduce,
translate,  publish,  use, and dispose of, and to authorize others so to do, any
and all  copyrighted or  copyrightable  material  created by the Consultant as a
result of work performed under this Agreement but not first produced or composed
by the  Consultant  in the  performance  of this  Agreement,  provided  that the
license granted by this paragraph shall be only to the extent the Consultant now
has, or prior to the  completion of work under this Agreement or under any later
agreements  with the Company or its  subsidiaries  relating to similar  work may
acquire, the right to grant such licenses without the Company becoming liable to
pay compensation to others solely because of such grant.

SECTION 9.  REMEDIES

     The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the Company's remedy at law for
a breach or threatened  breach of any of the  provisions of Sections 5, 6, and 8
of this Agreement  would be inadequate  and, in recognition of this fact, in the
event  of a  breach  or  threatened  breach  by  the  Consultant  of  any of the
provisions of Sections 5, 6, and 8, the  Consultant  agrees that, in addition to
its remedy at law, at the Company's  option,  all rights of the Consultant under
this  Agreement may be  terminated,  and the Company  shall be entitled  without
posting any bond to obtain,  and the  Consultant  agrees not to oppose a request
for, equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining
order,  temporary or permanent  injunction,  or any other equitable remedy which
may then be  available.  The  Consultant  acknowledges  that the  granting  of a
temporary injunction, temporary restraining order or permanent injunction merely
prohibiting the use of Proprietary  Information  would not be an adequate remedy
upon breach or threatened  breach of Sections 5 and 6, and  consequently  agrees
upon any such breach or threatened  breach to the granting of injunctive  relief
prohibiting the design, development,  manufacture, marketing or sale of products
and  providing  of  services  of the  kind  designed,  developed,  manufactured,
marketed, sold or provided by the Company or its subsidiaries during the term of
the Consultant's consulting relationship with the Company.  Nothing contained in
this Section 9 shall be construed as prohibiting  the Company from pursuing,  in
addition,  any other  remedies  available  to it for such  breach or  threatened
breach.
