rights in materials and data comprising the Content, Ingram owns the
copyright in the selection coordination, enhancement, arrangement, and

INGRAM
MICRO(R)                               ELECTRONIC DATA TRANSFER AGREEMENT
LEADING THE WAY IN WORLDWIDE DISTRIBUTION

     THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") dated as of September 2, 1999 is by and
between Ingram Micro Inc. ("Ingram"), a Delaware corporation having an
address at 1800 East Saint Andrew Place, Santa Ana, California 62705-4926,
and Lab Technologies having an address at 8245 West 1-25 Frontage Road,
Suite 4, Erie, CO 80516 ("Licensee").

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, Ingram and
Licensee agree as follows:

1.   INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE DEFINED.  Ingram shall provide to Licensee
     product pricing, descriptions and/or availability information in the
     form of electronic reports and real time queries, any and all such
     agreed upon information and reports and parts thereof when pertain to
     the Licensee and set-up documentation hereinafter referred to as the
     "Information."  Ingram shall also provide one (1) copy of the RPC
     software for Licensee's internal use only ("Software").

2.   LICENSE TO USE.  Ingram hereby grants Licensee a limited, non-exclusive,
     non-assignable license to use the Information and Software
     for Licensee's internal sales and pricing analysis and/or to provide
     real-time price (cost) and availability information to present to the
     internet to Licensee's and customers, for use only in price and
     availability queries and /or purchases from Ingram and for no other
     purpose.  All information will be sent via inside line.

     Notwithstanding the above, the Licensee may assign its right to use
     the Information and Software to a third party, independent consultant
     with whom it has contracted, provided that Ingram is notified of
     Licensee's intent to sub-license the Information or Software and
     Ingram grants such assignment in writing.

3.   TERM AND TERMINATION.  The term of this Agreement shall commence on
     the date indicated above and shall continue until Licensee ceases to
     be a customer of Ingram, subject to Ingram's right to terminate this
     Agreement at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice, or
     immediately upon Licensee's breach of this Agreement.  Upon
     termination, Licensee agrees to immediately return all information
     and/or Software, including any copies thereof regardless of form, to
     Ingram, or if Ingram so requests, to certify to Ingram that all
     Information and Software and copies have been destroyed.

4.   COPYRIGHTS.  Licensee acknowledges that the Information and Software
     are the property of Ingram and that the granting of a license to use
     the Information and Software hereunder shall in no way constitute or
     be construed as a grant of any proprietary interests or copyrights in
     the Information or Software.  Licensee agrees that it will not copy,
     scan, duplicate or reproduce any of the Information or Software in any
     manner whatsoever, except that Licensee shall be permitted to create
     additional copies of the Information for its internal use only and as
     permitted under Section 2.

5.   NON-DISCLOSURE.  Licensee agrees to hold in confidence and not to
     directly or indirectly use, reveal, report, publish, disclose or
     transfer to any other person or entity any of the Information, or
     utilize any of the Information or Software for any purpose at any time
     except as permitted under Section 2.  Licensee shall have the right to
     disclose the Information and Software to employees of Licensee and any
     Ingram authorized independent contractor to the extent necessary to
     perform tasks directly related to the permitted uses; provided,
     however, that the Licensee shall take steps to ensure that such
     persons conduct themselves so as to preserve the confidentiality of
     the Information and Software, whether or not such Information and
     Software is marked as confidential.  The obligations stated in this
     Paragraph 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a
     period of two (2) years.

6.   REMEDY IN EVENT OF UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF USE.  Because of the
     unique and proprietary nature of the Information and Software, it is
     understood and agreed that Ingram's remedies at law for breach by
     Licensee of its obligations under this Agreement will be inadequate
     and that Ingram shall, in the event of such breach by Licensee, be
     entitled to equitable relief (including, without limitation,
     injunctive relief and specific performance) without any requirement to
     post a bond as a condition for such relief, in addition to all other
     remedies under this Agreement or available at law.

7.   DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY.  INGRAM MAKES NO WARRANTY, EITHER EXPRESS OR
     IMPLIED ON THE SOFTWARE OR INFORMATION.  ALL INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE
     ARE PROVIDED TO LICENSEE "AS IS."  INGRAM HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL
     WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE AND
     INFORMATION INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
     MERCHANTABILITY AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
     PURPOSE.

8.   LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL INGRAM BE
     LIABLE TO THE LICENSEE OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
     CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (EVEN IF THAT PARTY HAS
     BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), ARISING FROM THE USE
     OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE OR INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER
     PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT,

SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF REVENUE, ANTICIPATED PROFITS OR LOST
BUSINESS.

9.   INDEMNIFICATION.  Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
     Ingram from and against any claims, actions, damages, demands,
     liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees)
     resulting from any act or omission of Licensee or Licensee's
     independent contractor under this Agreement.

10.  ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws
     of the State of California.  This Agreement contains the full and
     complete understanding of the parties with respect to the subject
     matter hereof and supersedes all prior representations or
     understanding, whether oral or written.  Notwithstanding the
     termination or expiration of any other agreement between the parties,
     the obligations created hereunder shall continue indefinitely.  As
     information and Software shall only be used within the fifty United
     States, export is not permitted.
