                                     - 10 -

                                                                  Execution Copy

                  continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days
                  following notice thereof (giving particulars of the failure in
                  reasonable detail);

         (c)      by The Brick to the other Parties if ADB and New ADB fail to
                  complete the Restructuring on or before October 31, 2002; and

expiry of this Agreement and shall continue in force thereafter for the period
contemplated by the Agreement. Other provisions of this Agreement which, by the
nature of the rights or obligations set out therein, might reasonably be
expected to be intended to so survive shall survive termination or expiry of
this Agreement until they are satisfied or by their nature expire.

                               DISPUTE RESOLUTION

7.1      DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS.

         If any dispute, disagreement, controversy or claim (a "Dispute") arises
out of or relating to this Agreement including, without limitation, its
application, interpretation, performance, breach, termination, enforcement or
damages, or remedies arising out of the breach of or non-compliance therewith,
the Dispute shall be referred immediately to the senior finance executive for
each Party. For the purposes of this Section 7.1, "senior finance executive"
means, in the case of THE BRICK, the Chief Financial Officer of THE BRICK, and
in the case of NEW ADB and ADB, the President of NEW ADB. If the Dispute remains
unresolved after 10 days of having been referred to such senior executives, then
the Parties shall proceed as set out below.

         All Disputes and claims arising out of this Agreement shall be finally
determined by arbitration to be commenced and conducted in the English language
in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Act,
1991 (Ontario) as amended hereby. The parties agree that:

         (a)      the parties shall agree on a single arbitrator (who shall be
                  trained as a professional arbitrator with expertise in
                  commercial and corporate law) within ten (10) days of notice
                  of reference to arbitration, failing which either party may
                  apply to a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of
                  Ontario to appoint an arbitrator with the foregoing
                  qualifications;

                                                                  Execution Copy

         (b)      the arbitration shall be held in private and no person except
                  the parties and their respective representatives and witnesses
                  shall be present unless authorized by the arbitrator;

         (c)      subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1, the parties
                  will agree, in consultation with the arbitrator, on the rules
                  of the arbitration. Absent such agreement, the arbitrator will
                  be entitled to establish the procedures to be followed,
                  provided that in doing so, the arbitrator shall be guided by
                  the parties' mutual intention that such procedures should be
                  designed to expedite the proceedings and minimize to the
                  extent practicable the expenses for the parties;

         (d)      the arbitration award shall be final and binding on the
                  parties and shall not be subject to any appeal (those
                  provisions of the Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) necessary to
                  achieve such result are hereby expressly excluded);

         (e)      the costs of the arbitration shall be in the discretion of the
                  arbitrator;

         (f)      judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having
                  jurisdiction or application may be made to the court for a
                  judicial recognition of the award or an order of enforcement,
                  as the case may be;

         (g)      the arbitrator shall be instructed that time is of the essence
                  in the arbitration proceeding and, in any event, the
                  arbitration award must be made within 15 days of the
                  submission of the Dispute to arbitration;

         (h)      all Disputes referred to arbitration (including the scope of
                  the agreement to arbitrate, any statute of limitations,
                  set-off claims, conflict of laws rules, tort claims and
                  interest claims) shall be governed by the substantive law of
                  Ontario; and

         (i)      the parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept
                  confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any
                  element of it (including any pleadings, briefs or other
                  documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral
                  submissions and any awards) shall not be disclosed beyond the
                  arbitrator, the parties, their counsel and any person
                  necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as may
                  lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the
                  arbitration or otherwise.

                                    ADB SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL LTD., a
                                    corporation incorporated under the laws of
                                    the Province of Ontario, having its
                                    principal place of business at 6725
                                    Mississauga, Ontario L4V 1V2 ("New ADB")

BACKGROUND:

                  1. Pursuant to a co-operation agreement dated as of August 23,
2002, among ADB, New ADB and The Brick Warehouse Corporation (the "Co-Operation
Agreement"), ADB agreed to assign and transfer to New ADB certain of its assets
and New ADB agreed to assume certain of ADB's liabilities.

                  2. Pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors, it was
resolved to transfer such assets to new ADB as a return of capital and this
agreement is intended to implement such return of capital.

                  3. ADB's G.S.T. registration number is 88676-3960-RT0001 and
New ADB will apply for a G.S.T. registration number forthwith.

                  NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and for other good and
valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby mutually
acknowledged), the parties agree as follows:

1.       DEFINITIONS - Unless otherwise specifically defined in this Agreement,
any capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to
them in the Co-Operation Agreement.

2.       TRANSFER OF ASSETS - ADB hereby transfers, conveys, assigns and
delivers unto New ADB, its successors and assigns, effective as at the Effective
Time, all of ADB's right, title and

<PAGE>

                                      - 2 -

interest in all of its assets on a going concern basis and including goodwill,
except the Bid.Com Assets as described in Schedule "A" hereto. For their
respective tax purposes, the parties agree that the fair market value of the
assets is as indicated on Schedule "C" hereto. In the event that Canada Customs
and Revenue Agency ("CCRA") should take the view, and it should be ultimately
determined by CCRA, the Tax Court of Canada or a higher tribunal that the fair
market value of the assets is an amount different than an amount set out on
Schedule C, then the parties agree to adopt such different amount for purposes
of determining their proceeds or cost amounts, as the case may be.

3.       TAX - New ADB shall pay all retail sales tax and G.S.T. in respect of
the transactions contemplated hereby. ADB and New ADB shall jointly make and New
ADB shall file in prescribed form and manner an election pursuant to section 167
of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) in connection with the transfer of assets
hereunder. New ADB will indemnify and save harmless ADB from and against all
Liabilities incurred by ADB directly or indirectly as a result of ADB not
collecting or remitting any tax in respect of the transfer of assets hereunder
or as a result of any failure to file the election referred to in the last
sentence in a timely fashion.

4.       EMPLOYEES - New ADB will offer employment to all employees of ADB on
substantially the same terms as they presently enjoy, except in respect of Ken
Martin, Craig Martin and Stoney Jiang and will continue to be responsible for
and will discharge all Liabilities to such employees for wages, severance pay,
termination pay, notice of termination of employment or pay in lieu of such
notice, damages for wrongful dismissal or other employee benefits or claims,
including vacation pay, whether arising under a written contract of employment
or otherwise.

5.       ASSUMPTION AND INDEMNIFICATION - New ADB hereby assumes all the ADB
liabilities except the Bid.Com Liabilities as described in Schedule B hereto,
and undertakes to pay or discharge such liabilities in accordance with their
terms. New ADB shall indemnify and hold harmless ADB and its respective
Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, representatives and agents
(collectively the "INDEMNITEES") from and against and in respect of any and all
Losses incurred by, resulting from, arising out of, relating to, imposed upon or
incurred by any other Indemnitee by reason of any indebtedness, obligation or
liability of any kind in respect of the liabilities assumed pursuant to this
agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term, "LOSSES" means any and all
deficiencies, judgments, settlements, demands, claims, suits, actions or causes
of action, liabilities, losses, damages, interest, fines, penalties, costs and
expenses (including reasonable legal, accounting and other costs and expenses
incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling or satisfying any
and all demands, claims, actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings,
assessments, judgments or appeals, and in seeking indemnification therefore.)

6.       RETURN OF CAPITAL - The amount by which the fair market value of the
transferred assets exceeds the assumed liabilities shall be paid to New ADB as a
return of capital on its shares of ADB.

7.       FURTHER ASSURANCES - Upon the request from time to time of New ADB,
ADB shall execute all such conveyances, bills of sale, transfers, assignments,
notices and other documents and use all reasonable efforts to secure all
necessary consents and approvals as, in the reasonable opinion of New ADB, may
be necessary to effectively vest title to the assets in New ADB or

<PAGE>

                                      - 3 -

otherwise to protect or perfect any rights of New ADB in the assets. New ADB
shall be responsible for the costs of preparing, executing and registering with
all necessary offices of public record any such conveyance, bill of sale,
transfer, assignment, notice or other document in respect of the assets.

8.       REMEDIES - The rights and remedies conferred under this Agreement are
not intended to be exclusive of any other rights or remedies available to either
New ADB or ADB in connection with the breach or failure of any of the covenants,
warranties, representations or other obligations of the other party given in
this Agreement or the Co-Operation Agreement, and nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed in any manner as restricting or derogating from any
other such rights or remedies.

9.       CONFLICT - This General Conveyance and Assumption Agreement is
executed and delivered pursuant to the Co-operation Agreement, and ADB covenants
and agrees with New ADB that this General Conveyance and Assumption Agreement is
subject to every agreement, representation, warranty, indemnification, covenant
and provision contained in the provisions of the Co-operation Agreement. In the
event there is a conflict between the terms and the provisions of this Agreement
and the Co-operation Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Co-operation
Agreement shall govern.

10.      TRUST - ADB hereby declares that, as to any of the ADB assets or
interest in any of the ADB assets intended to be hereby transferred, assigned,
conveyed and set over to New ADB, and the title to which may not have passed to
New ADB by virtue of this Agreement or any transfers or conveyances which may
from time to time be executed and delivered in connection with this Agreement,
ADB holds such property or interest in trust for New ADB to convey, assign and
transfer the same as ADB may from time to time direct. Any Liabilities
associated with ADB assets transferred or intended to be transferred hereunder
shall be assumed by New ADB even though title to such ADB assets may be held in
trust by ADB and New ADB will indemnify and save harmless ADB from and against
all such Liabilities.

11.      NOTICE - Any notice or other communication (a "Notice") required or
permitted to be given or made hereunder shall be in writing and shall be well

                            AND MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

1.0      SOFTWARE RESTRICTIONS

1.1      LICENSE GRANTED TO BID.COM

Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, NEW ADB hereby grants to BID.COM a
non-exclusive, perpetual, personal, non-transferable right to use the Software
and U.S. Patent Nos. 5,890,138 and 6,266,652 for the on-line sale of Products
under, and for the Term of, the Agreement only, which right includes the right
to use such Software in the performance of BID.COM's obligations to the THE
BRICK pursuant to the Agreement. The right granted in this Section 1.1
specifically excludes, however, any and all rights NEW ADB has or will have
under the Patent License Agreement made between Old ADB and NCR Corporation
dated April 17th, 2002, including, for certainty, U.S. Patent No. 5,721,906,
provided that the Parties acknowledge and agree that it is their intention that
Old ADB's benefits under Section 11.2 of the Patent License Agreement shall be
afforded to BID.COM.

1.2      USE LIMITATIONS ON SOFTWARE.

         (a)      The Retailer and the Supplier understand and acknowledge that
                  this Agreement only permits the Software to be used:

                  (i)      in respect of transactions where the buyer's address
                           for delivery is in Canada or the United States of
                           America, as determined pursuant to the registration
                           process for such transactions; and

                  (ii)     in connection with transactions involving consumer
                           goods.

         (b)      Nothing herein shall be construed as permitting the Retailer
                  any right of resale of the Software. Without limitation to the
                  foregoing, throughout the Term of the Agreement of which this
                  Schedule forms a part, BID.COM and NEW ADB shall not license
                  or sub-license, or permit the licensing or sublicensing of,
                  the right to use the Software for retail sales purposes to a
                  Competitor of THE BRICK. For the purposes of this Section 1.2,
                  "Competitor" means any Person whose principal business to be
                  conducted through Dynamic Seller is comprised of sales at
                  retail of furniture, mattresses, appliances or consumer
                  electronics to customers for delivery in Canada and includes,
                  without limitation the competitors listed in Appendix A to
                  Schedule A. For greater certainty, current customers of NEW
                  ADB exercising their rights under existing agreements or any
                  renewal or replacement agreements are not Competitors.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, NEW ADB may license or

                                                                              25

                  sub-license, or permit the licensing or sublicensing of, the
                  right to use the Software for retail sales purposes to a
                  Competitor of THE BRICK where such Competitor is not given the
                  right to use the Software for sales at retail of furniture,
                  appliances or consumer electronics to customers for delivery
                  in Canada.

1.3      OWNERSHIP OF SOFTWARE.

         (a)      The Supplier and the Retailer acknowledge that, subject to the
                  grant of an interest contemplated by Section 4.1(a) of the
                  Agreement and the license granted pursuant to Section 4.l(b)
                  of the Agreement, NEW ADB retains ownership of the Software,
                  that the Software comprises commercially valuable trade
                  secrets, Confidential Information and proprietary data of NEW
                  ADB, and that no provision of this Agreement shall be
                  construed to convey title in the Software to the Supplier or
                  to the Retailer save and except for the transfer of the
                  interest in the Software to THE BRICK to be granted pursuant
                  to Section 4.l(a) of the Agreement to which this Schedule
                  forms a part.

         (b)      Without limitation to any of the restrictions on the rights of
                  the Supplier or the Retailer with respect to the Software, the
                  Supplier and the Retailer each covenant and agree to disclose
                  to NEW ADB any desirable modifications or improvements to the
                  Software or any add-on computer programs or files, application
                  programming interfaces, bug fixes or patches as may come to
                  their attention. All right, title and interest in any of the
                  foregoing that NEW ADB first learns of from the Supplier or
                  the Retailer or creates for either or both of them pursuant to
                  this Agreement, including the Source Materials with respect
                  thereto, shall immediately vest as the property of NEW ADB
                  save and except that they shall be deemed to form part of the
                  Software hereunder which shall be subject to all the terms and
                  provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Software
                  including, for added certainty, Section 1.2 of this Schedule
                  A. Where applicable, the Supplier and/or the Retailer shall
                  cause their employees, agents or consultants to waive any
                  moral rights they may have in such modifications or
                  improvements and shall deliver written evidence thereof to NEW
                  ADB promptly.

         (c)      Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 1.3,
                  but subject to Section 3.2 of the Agreement, the Parties
                  acknowledge that THE BRICK shall retain all of its
                  Intellectual Property Rights in the "look and feel" of
                  www.thebrick.com and in all the content provided by it
                  pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Agreement, of which this
                  Schedule forms a part.

                                                                              26

2.0      SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS

2.1      IMPLEMENTATION AND CUSTOMIZATION SERVICES.

         (a)      NEW ADB will provide all implementation services described in
                  Appendix B to this Schedule A (the "IMPLEMENTATION").

         (b)      "ACTIVATION" means the completion by NEW ADB of a production
                  site incorporating the functionality set out in Appendix B to
                  this Schedule A. BID.COM agrees to provide to NEW ADB a
                  written acknowledgment of Activation, upon such functionality
                  being achieved. NEW ADB shall use commercially reasonable
                  efforts to achieve Activation before November 30,2002. In the
                  event BID.COM notifies NEW ADB in writing that it does not
                  accept that Activation has been achieved, it must set out in
                  writing the reasons for its non-acceptance and deliver such
                  reasons to NEW ADB within 2 Business Days after NEW ADB gave
                  it notice of Activation, failing which it shall be deemed to
                  have accepted the Activation. Any dispute over Activation

                  shall pay NEW ADB an additional $200 per man day that was
                  required to achieve Activation.

2.3      ADDITIONAL SERVICES

         (a)      In the event BID.COM wishes to retain NEW ADB for additional
                  consulting, customization or implementation services beyond
                  those described in this Schedule at any time during the Term
                  of the Agreement to which this Schedule forms a part, BID.COM
                  shall provide no less than 15 days prior written notice of
                  each such change order, and the specific details of such
                  additional work must be defined and agreed in writing through
                  a change request in ADB's standard form, signed by all Parties
                  before the commencement of work. NEW ADB shall provide change
                  order services, subject to availability of the relevant NEW
                  ADB personnel, at ADB's Daily Rates, plus expenses (travel,
                  per diem and lodging) if travel is required. ADB's Daily Rate
                  is CDN $1,000 per day for intermediate developers, for senior
                  developers and for Project Managers.

         (b)      Nothing herein shall obligate NEW ADB to provide any services
                  in connection with the Software, including without limitation
                  video streaming, specific functionality or customization
                  changes to the Software, or any additional or specific
                  branding requirements, beyond those specified herein. Retailer
                  must contract separately with NEW ADB for any such services,
                  failing which NEW ADB assumes no responsibility for such
                  services.

2.4      TRAINING

         (a)      Where appropriate, NEW ADB agrees to provide training, at a

                  resources to be made available for such consultation and
                  training, provided that NEW ADB shall use its commercially
                  reasonable efforts to ensure that Retailer and Supplier have
                  sufficient training prior to Activation to conduct
                  transactions through the platform on an ongoing basis. In the
                  event that either Retailer or Supplier determines that more
                  training is necessary, NEW ADB shall provide such training at
                  $800 per day, plus travel, lodging and expenses.

         (b)      The training will be conducted by NEW ADB personnel, on dates

                                    - and -

                                    ADB SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL LTD., a
                                    corporation incorporated under the laws of
                                    the Province of Ontario, having its
                                    principal place of business at 6725
                                    Mississauga, Ontario L4V 1V2 ("New ADB")

BACKGROUND:

                  1. Pursuant to a co-operation agreement dated as of August 23,
2002, among ADB, New ADB and The Brick Warehouse Corporation (the "Co-Operation
Agreement"), ADB agreed to assign and transfer to New ADB certain of its assets
and New ADB agreed to assume certain of ADB's liabilities.

                  2. Pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors, it was
resolved to transfer such assets to new ADB as a return of capital and this
agreement is intended to implement such return of capital.

                  3. ADB's G.S.T. registration number is 88676-3960-RT0001 and
New ADB will apply for a G.S.T. registration number forthwith.

                  NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and for other good and
valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby mutually
acknowledged), the parties agree as follows:

1.       DEFINITIONS - Unless otherwise specifically defined in this Agreement,
any capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to
them in the Co-Operation Agreement.

2.       TRANSFER OF ASSETS - ADB hereby transfers, conveys, assigns and
delivers unto New ADB, its successors and assigns, effective as at the Effective
Time, all of ADB's right, title and

<PAGE>

                                      - 2 -

interest in all of its assets on a going concern basis and including goodwill,
except the Bid.Com Assets as described in Schedule "A" hereto. For their
respective tax purposes, the parties agree that the fair market value of the
assets is as indicated on Schedule "C" hereto. In the event that Canada Customs
and Revenue Agency ("CCRA") should take the view, and it should be ultimately
determined by CCRA, the Tax Court of Canada or a higher tribunal that the fair
market value of the assets is an amount different than an amount set out on
Schedule C, then the parties agree to adopt such different amount for purposes
of determining their proceeds or cost amounts, as the case may be.

3.       TAX - New ADB shall pay all retail sales tax and G.S.T. in respect of
the transactions contemplated hereby. ADB and New ADB shall jointly make and New
ADB shall file in prescribed form and manner an election pursuant to section 167
of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) in connection with the transfer of assets
hereunder. New ADB will indemnify and save harmless ADB from and against all
Liabilities incurred by ADB directly or indirectly as a result of ADB not
collecting or remitting any tax in respect of the transfer of assets hereunder
or as a result of any failure to file the election referred to in the last
sentence in a timely fashion.

4.       EMPLOYEES - New ADB will offer employment to all employees of ADB on
substantially the same terms as they presently enjoy, except in respect of Ken
Martin, Craig Martin and Stoney Jiang and will continue to be responsible for
and will discharge all Liabilities to such employees for wages, severance pay,
termination pay, notice of termination of employment or pay in lieu of such
notice, damages for wrongful dismissal or other employee benefits or claims,
including vacation pay, whether arising under a written contract of employment
or otherwise.

5.       ASSUMPTION AND INDEMNIFICATION - New ADB hereby assumes all the ADB
liabilities except the Bid.Com Liabilities as described in Schedule B hereto,
and undertakes to pay or discharge such liabilities in accordance with their
terms. New ADB shall indemnify and hold harmless ADB and its respective
Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, representatives and agents
(collectively the "INDEMNITEES") from and against and in respect of any and all
Losses incurred by, resulting from, arising out of, relating to, imposed upon or
incurred by any other Indemnitee by reason of any indebtedness, obligation or
liability of any kind in respect of the liabilities assumed pursuant to this
agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term, "LOSSES" means any and all
deficiencies, judgments, settlements, demands, claims, suits, actions or causes
of action, liabilities, losses, damages, interest, fines, penalties, costs and
expenses (including reasonable legal, accounting and other costs and expenses
incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling or satisfying any
and all demands, claims, actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings,
assessments, judgments or appeals, and in seeking indemnification therefor.)

6.       RETURN OF CAPITAL - The amount by which the fair market value of the
transferred assets exceeds the assumed liabilities shall be paid to New ADB as a
return of capital on its shares of ADB.

7.       FURTHER ASSURANCES - Upon the request from time to time of New ADB, ADB
shall execute all such conveyances, bills of sale, transfers, assignments,
notices and other documents and use all reasonable efforts to secure all
necessary consents and approvals as, in the reasonable opinion of New ADB, may
be necessary to effectively vest title to the assets in New ADB or

<PAGE>

                                      - 3 -

otherwise to protect or perfect any rights of New ADB in the assets. New ADB
shall be responsible for the costs of preparing, executing and registering with
all necessary offices of public record any such conveyance, bill of sale,
transfer, assignment, notice or other document in respect of the assets.

8.       REMEDIES - The rights and remedies conferred under this Agreement are
not intended to be exclusive of any other rights or remedies available to either
New ADB or ADB in connection with the breach or failure of any of the covenants,
warranties, representations or other obligations of the other party given in
this Agreement or the Co-Operation Agreement, and nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed in any manner as restricting or derogating from any
other such rights or remedies.

9.       CONFLICT - This General Conveyance and Assumption Agreement is executed
and delivered pursuant to the Co-operation Agreement, and ADB covenants and
agrees with New ADB that this General Conveyance and Assumption Agreement is
subject to every agreement, representation, warranty, indemnification, covenant
and provision contained in the provisions of the Co-operation Agreement. In the
event there is a conflict between the terms and the provisions of this Agreement
and the Co-operation Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Co-operation
Agreement shall govern.

10.      TRUST - ADB hereby declares that, as to any of the ADB assets or
interest in any of the ADB assets intended to be hereby transferred, assigned,
conveyed and set over to New ADB, and the title to which may not have passed to
New ADB by virtue of this Agreement or any transfers or conveyances which may
from time to time be executed and delivered in connection with this Agreement,
ADB holds such property or interest in trust for New ADB to convey, assign and
transfer the same as ADB may from time to time direct. Any Liabilities
associated with ADB assets transferred or intended to be transferred hereunder
shall be assumed by New ADB even though title to such ADB assets may be held in
trust by ADB and New ADB will indemnify and save harmless ADB from and against
all such Liabilities.

                  under Clauses 5.2(c)(iv) and 5.2(c)(v) if, insofar as
                  permitted by law, it has:

                  i)       informed the Disclosing Party;

                  ii)      obtained legal advice in writing that disclosure is
                           required;

                  iii)     advised the recipient of the confidentiality of the
                           information being disclosed; and

                           reasonable commercial efforts to agree on the wording
                           of such disclosure with the Disclosing Party.

         (e)      The Receiving party may only disclose Confidential Information

                           electronic form or incorporated into other material

                           has disclosed Confidential Information also does so;
                           and

                  iii)     confirm in writing that the provisions of this Clause

                  immediate and irreparable harm and damage. In the event of
                  such violation by a Party hereto, the Party harmed will, in
                  addition to any other right to relief, be entitled to

                             DEFAULT AND TERMINATION

7.1      TERM.

This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue, subject
to early termination in accordance with the terms hereof, until the 10th

                  for the purposes of this Agreement:

                  (i)      if a Party fails to perform any material obligation
                           set forth in this Agreement and such default
                           continues for a period of thirty (30) days after
                           written notice of such failure has been given by a
                           non-defaulting Party to all other Parties; or

                  (ii)     if a Party declares bankruptcy or becomes insolvent
                           or if it is put into receivership or a trustee is
                           appointed for the benefit of its creditors or it
                           ceases the operation of its business without a
                           successor acceptable to the remaining Parties.

         (b)      Whenever an Event of Default has occurred, the non-defaulting
                  Party may, at its election, terminate this Agreement in
                  writing, in which event the non-defaulting Party shall be
                  entitled to pursue all legal remedies available to it, subject
                  to the terms and conditions hereof.

         (c)      In an Event of Default by the Retailer or the Supplier, the
                  non-defaulting Retailer or Supplier shall have the right by
                  written notice to assume all rights and obligations of the
                  defaulting Retailer or Supplier and cure such default, or, if
                  such default is bankruptcy or insolvency, declare a
                  willingness to continue to meet the obligations of the
                  bankrupt or insolvent Retailer or Supplier, in which case the

                                                                              17

The terms of Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.6, 7.3 and Articles 6 and 8 shall survive any
termination or expiry of this Agreement and shall continue in force thereafter
for the period contemplated by the Agreement. Other provisions of this Agreement
which, by the nature of the rights or obligations set out therein, might
reasonably be expected to be intended to so survive, shall survive termination
or expiry of this Agreement until they are satisfied or by their nature expire.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                               DISPUTE RESOLUTION

8.1      DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS.

If any dispute, disagreement, controversy or claim (a "DISPUTE") arises out of
or relating to this Agreement including, without limitation, its application,
interpretation, performance, breach, termination, enforcement or damages, or
remedies arising out of the breach of or non-compliance therewith, the Dispute
shall be referred immediately to the senior finance executive for each Party.
For the purposes of this Article 9, "senior finance executive" means, in the
case of THE BRICK, the Chief Financial Officer of THE BRICK, and in the case of
NEW ADB, the President of New ADB and in the case of BID.COM, a Senior Officer
of BID.COM. If the Dispute remains unresolved after 10 days of having been
referred to such senior executives, then the Parties shall proceed as set out
below.

All Disputes and claims arising out of this Agreement shall be finally
determined by arbitration to be commenced and conducted in the English language
in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Act,
1991 (Ontario) as amended hereby. The Parties agree that:

         (a)      the parties shall agree on a single arbitrator (who shall be
                  trained as a professional arbitrator with expertise in
                  commercial and corporate law) within ten (10) days of notice
                  of reference to arbitration, failing which either party may
                  apply to a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of
                  Ontario to appoint an arbitrator with the foregoing
                  qualifications;

         (b)      the arbitration shall be held in private and no person except
                  the Parties and their respective representatives and witnesses
                  shall be present unless authorized by the arbitrator;

         (c)      subject to the provisions of this Section 9.1, the Parties
                  will agree, in consultation with the arbitrator, on the rules
                  of the arbitration. Absent such agreement, the arbitrator will
                  be entitled to establish the procedures to be followed,
                  provided that

                                                                              18

<PAGE>

                  in doing so, the arbitrator shall be guided by the Parties'
                  mutual intention that such procedures should be designed to
                  expedite the proceedings and minimize to the extent
                  practicable the expenses for the Parties;

         (d)      the arbitration award shall be final and binding on the
                  Parties and shall not be subject to any appeal (those
                  provisions of the Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) necessary to
                  achieve such result are hereby expressly excluded);

         (e)      the costs of the arbitration shall be in the discretion of the
                  arbitrator;

         (f)      judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having
                  jurisdiction or application may be made to the court for a
                  judicial recognition of the award or an order of enforcement,
                  as the case may be;

         (g)      the arbitrator shall be instructed that time is of the essence
                  in the arbitration proceeding and, in any event, the
                  arbitration award must be made within 15 days of the
                  submission of the Dispute to arbitration;

         (h)      all Disputes referred to arbitration (including the scope of
                  the agreement to arbitrate, any statute of limitations,
                  set-off claims, conflict of laws rules, tort claims and
                  interest claims) shall be governed by the substantive law of
                  Ontario; and

         (i)      the Parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept
                  confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any
                  element of it (including any pleadings, briefs or other
                  documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral
                  submissions and any awards) shall not be disclosed beyond the
                  arbitrator, the Parties, their counsel and any person
                  necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as may

steps or proceedings in connection therewith.

9.3      ASSIGNMENT.

No Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole
or in part, without the prior consent in writing of the other Parties. Any
purported assignment by a Party made without required consent is void and of no
effect. No assignment of this Agreement by THE BRICK or NEW ADB shall relieve

9.5      FURTHER ASSURANCES.

Each Party agrees that upon the written request of any Party, it will do all
such acts and execute all such further documents, assignments, and the like, and
will cause the doing of all such acts and will cause the execution of all such
further documents as are within its power to cause the doing or execution of, as
any other Party hereto may from time to time reasonably request be done and/or
executed as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to give effect to this
Agreement or as may be requisite to enable them to have the full benefit of all
rights and remedies intended to be reserved or created hereby or as may be
required under local laws.

It is understood and agreed that in giving effect to this Agreement, no Party

any other Party.

9.7      WAIVER.

A waiver by a Party hereto of any of its rights hereunder or of the performance
by any other Party of any of its obligations hereunder shall be without
prejudice to all of the other rights hereunder of the Party so waiving and shall
not constitute a waiver of any such other rights or, in any other instance, of
the rights so waived, or a waiver of the performance by such other Party of any
of its other obligations hereunder or of the performance, in any other instance,
of the obligations so waived. No waiver shall be effective or binding upon a
Party unless the same shall be expressed in writing and executed by the Party to
be bound. Notwithstanding any forbearance or indulgence by any Party, until
complete performance of a term or condition, the waiving Party shall be entitled
to invoke any remedy available to it under this Agreement or at law.

performance of, and obligations under, this Agreement.

officer of each of the Parties. For greater certainty, the parties acknowledge
and agree that no representations, warranties, conditions, covenants or other

otherwise, and whether made prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement or
