within a reasonable amount of time after receipt of any such request for
information or documents. The Company shall reimburse the Consultant for all
reasonable expenses incurred in connection with copying and sending documents or
other requested materials.

      4. Compensation and Payment.

            4.1 In consideration of Consultant's agreement to perform the Work,
Consultant shall receive a warrant which shall be convertible, upon the
occurrence of a reverse stock split, into 0.4% of the common stock of the

Following the Reverse Merger, the Company will accomplish a reverse stock split
such that, upon conversion of all Company preferred stock, there shall be
approximately 20,000,000 shares of Company common stock outstanding. The
exercise price of the warrant shall be $0.01 per share and the warrant shall
have a term of five years. The form of warrant to be issued to Consultant is
annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

            4.2 Whenever the Company shall propose to file a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the public
offering of Company common stock for sale for cash for its own account, or a
re-sale registration statement for the sale of stock held by other shareholders
or by employees or consultants to the Company (a "Registration Statement"), the
Company shall give written notice to Consultant at least fifteen (15) business
days prior to the anticipated filing thereof, specifying the approximate date on
which the Company proposes to file such Registration Statement and the intended
method of distribution in connection therewith, and advising the Consultant of
his right to have any or all of the Registrable Securities, as defined below,
then held by Consultant included among the securities to be covered by such
Registration Statement (the "Piggy-Back Rights"). For the purposes of this
Section, "Registrable Securities" shall mean all common stock issuable to
Consultant, upon exercise of the warrant received by him pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement.

      5. Independent Contractor. The Consultant agrees to perform his services
hereunder as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the Company,
its subsidiaries or affiliates. The Consultant is not granted any right or
authority or responsibility, expressed, implied or apparent, on behalf of or in
the name of the Company to bind, or act on behalf of, the Company.

      6. Confidential Information. (a) All information which the Consultant may
now possess, may obtain during or after the term of this Agreement, or may

the Company and shall not be published, disclosed, or made accessible by it to
any other person, firm or corporation either during or after the term of this
Agreement or used by it, except during the term of this Agreement in the
business and for the benefit of the Company without the prior written consent of
the Company. The Consultant shall return all tangible evidence of such
Confidential Information to the Company prior to or at the end of the term of
this Agreement.

      (b) Section 6(a) does not apply to information that is presently a matter
of public knowledge, which is or becomes available on a non-confidential basis
from a source which is not known to be prohibited from disclosing such
information, or which was legally in the Consultant's possession without
obligation of confidentiality prior to disclosure by the Company.

      (c) In the event that the Consultant is requested or required by legal or
regulatory authority to disclose any Confidential Information, the Consultant
shall promptly notify the Company of such request or requirement prior to
disclosure so that the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates may seek an
appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance with the terms of this
Agreement.

                                       2

                                    EXHIBIT A

      THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT
      BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD,

      OF 1933, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT
      REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO
      RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT.

                        WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
                                       of
                           PARALLEL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Parallel Technologies, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (the "Company"), on
December__, 2005 (the "Warrant Issue Date") for the consideration stated in the
Consulting Agreement between the Company and Holder dated December __, 2005,
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.

      1. Purchase Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal
office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the
Holder hereof in writing), to purchase from the Company _______ shares of Common
Stock of the Company (the "Warrant Shares") at the Exercise Price (defined
below), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 below.

      2. Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Warrant Shares shall be
$0.01 per Warrant Share, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 8
hereof (the "Exercise Price").

      3. Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in
part, during the term commencing on the Warrant Issue Date and ending on the
earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, (ii) immediately
preceding a Change of Control. The term "Change of Control" shall mean (a) the
acquisition of the Company pursuant to a consolidation of the Company with or
merger of the Company with or into any other person in which the Company is not
the surviving corporation (other than a reincorporation);(b) the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company to any other person. In the event
of a Change of Control, the Company shall provide the Holder with thirty (30)
days' prior written notice of the event constituting the Change of Control.
Further, in the event of a Change of Control whereby (i) the consideration to be
received by Holder in the event of Change of Control in respect of the Common
Stock exceeds the exercise price of the Warrant, and (ii) Holder has not
notified the Company of Holder's intent to exercise the Warrant within the 30
days' notice provision contained in this Section 3, then, the Warrant shall be
deemed automatically exercised as of the closing of the event constituting the
Change of Control.

      4. Method of Exercise. While this Warrant remains outstanding and
exercisable in accordance with Section 3 above, the Holder may exercise, in
whole or in part, the purchase rights evidenced hereby. Such exercise shall be
effected by:

            (a) the surrender of the Warrant, together with a duly executed copy
      of the form of Notice of Exercise attached hereto, to the Secretary of the
      Company at its principal offices; and

            (b) the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate
      Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares being purchased.

                                       5

      5. Certificates for Shares. Upon the exercise of the purchase rights
evidenced by this Warrant, one or more certificates for the number of Warrant
Shares so purchased shall be issued as soon as practicable thereafter (with
appropriate restrictive legends, if applicable), and in any event within thirty
(30) days of the delivery of the notice of exercise.

      6. Issuance of Shares. The Company covenants that the Warrant Shares, when
issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges
with respect to the issuance thereof.

      7. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Kind and Number of Shares. The number
and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

            (a) Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company
      shall at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant (i) subdivide
      its Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Common Stock,
      (ii) issue additional shares of its Common Stock or other equity
      securities as a dividend with respect to any shares of its Common Stock,
      or (iii) declare a cash dividend with respect to any shares of its Common
      Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of
      this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a
      subdivision or stock or cash dividend, or proportionately decreased in the
      case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the
      purchase price payable per share, but the aggregate purchase price payable
      for the total number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as
      adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 8(a)
      shall become effective at the close of business on the date the
      subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of
      such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the
      making of such dividend.

            (b) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of
      any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change in the Common
      Stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision,
      combination, or stock dividend provided for in Section 7(a) above), then,
      as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, or change, lawful
      provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same
      from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so
      that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration
      of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon
      the exercise of this Warrant (subject to adjustment of the Exercise Price
      as provided in Section 7), the kind and amount of shares of stock and
      other securities and property receivable in connection with such
      reclassification, reorganization, or change by a Holder of the same number
      of shares of Common Stock as were purchasable by the Holder immediately
      prior to such reclassification, reorganization, or change. In any such
      case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and
      interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be
      applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities and
      property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments
      shall be made to the purchase price per share payable hereunder, provided
      the aggregate purchase price shall remain the same.

            (c) Notice of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be made
      in the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant,
      or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of
      such event and of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities
      or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant.

            (d) Issuance of New Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any of the
      events listed in this Section 7 that results in an adjustment of the type,
      number or exercise price of the securities underlying this Warrant, the
      Holder shall have the right to receive a new warrant reflecting such
      adjustment upon the Holder tendering this Warrant in exchange. The new
      warrant shall otherwise have terms identical to this Warrant.

                                       6

      8. Reservation of Shares. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Warrant, Company shall reserve an appropriate number of shares of Company's
Common Stock to facilitate the issuance of Warrant Shares to Holder pursuant to
this Warrant.

      9. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash
payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

      10. No Stockholder Rights. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder
shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares
of Common Stock issuable on the exercise hereof, including (without limitation)
the right to vote such shares of Common Stock, receive dividends or other
distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be notified of stockholder
meetings, and such Holder shall not be entitled to any notice or other
communication concerning the business or affairs of the Company. However,
nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the right of the Holder to be provided
the Notices required under this Warrant.

      11. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this Warrant shall
inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the Holder and
their respective successors and assigns.

have been given or made for all purposes (i) upon personal delivery, (ii) one
day after being sent, when sent by professional overnight courier service, or
(iii) five days after posting when sent by registered or certified mail. Notices
to the Company shall be sent to the principal office of the Company (or at such
other place as the Company shall notify the Holder hereof in writing). Notices
to the Holder shall be sent to the address of the Holder on the books of the
Company (or at such other place as the Holder shall notify the Company hereof in

      13. Captions. The section and subsection headings of this Warrant are
inserted for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Warrant in
construing or interpreting any provision hereof.

      14. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by the laws of the State

II.   COMPENSATION

      In  consideration  of rendering such  services,  the Company agrees to pay
Kuhns Brothers on the following basis:

(I)   FOR FINANCIAL ADVISORY SERVICES--

      (a)   a  signing  fee of  $50,000,  payable  upon  the  execution  of this
            Agreement;

      (b)   a non-refundable  documentation fee of $30,000,  upon the successful
            purchase  of the Public  Shell,  payable  from the  proceeds  of the
            Equity Financing; and

      (c)   a purchase fee of $120,000,  payable upon the successful purchase of
            the Public Shell, payable from the proceeds of the Equity Financing;
            and

      (d)   a financing fee, payable upon closing(s) of the Financing,  equal to
            the following percentages of the total Financing value:

                ----------------------------------------------
                CORPORATE FINANCING           FEE
                ----------------------------------------------
                Public equity offering        10.00%, plus
                                              warrants
                ----------------------------------------------
                Exercise   of   Warrants   or 10.00%
                Subscription Rights
                ----------------------------------------------

      With  respect to warrants  provided as  compensation  as  indicated in the
table above, the warrant "coverage", that is the percent of the dollar amount of
securities  issued for which Kuhns Brothers  shall receive  warrants to purchase
the  Company's  equity  securities,  shall be 10%. For  example,  if the Company
issues $1 million of common stock with warrants  attached,  Kuhns Brothers shall
receive a warrant to buy $100,000 of common stock with warrants  attached of the
Company.  Such warrant will have a strike price that is 110% of the price of the
equity securities, or underlying equity securities, offered in the Financing, or
in the case of compensation not involving a Financing shall be at a strike price
that is 100% of the  price  of the  Company's  common  stock  as set by the most
recent third party sale, and shall be outstanding for a period of 6 years.

      In connection  with our  financial  advisory  services,  you agree that if
during the period Kuhns  Brothers is retained by you a Financing is  consummated
with a third  party,  acting  either as a  Financial  Investor or as a Strategic
Investor,   who  was  introduced   directly  or  indirectly  by  Kuhns  Brothers
("Introduced  Investors"),  or if the Company enters into a definitive agreement
with Introduced  Investors which at any time thereafter  results in a Financing,
you will pay Kuhns  Brothers a financing fee equal to the fees  indicated  above
with  respect to such  Financing.  It is  understood  that for  purposes of this
Agreement,  Kuhns Brothers shall be deemed to have  introduced  such  Introduced
Investors to the Company not only by physical  introductions  and meetings,  but
also by arranging or facilitating  telephonic or correspondence meetings between
the  parties,  whether  or not Kuhns  Brothers  participated  in such  meetings,
telephone calls or correspondence.

                                       10
<PAGE>

      Additionally,  if during 2 years  from the  execution  of this  contract a
Financing is  consummated  with a third party not  introduced  to the Company by
Kuhns  Brothers,  Kuhns  Brothers  will  be  paid  a fee  equal  to  50%  of its
compensation due pursuant to the language above.

      Notwithstanding anything contained herein, Kuhns Brothers' fees payable in
connection with a Financing shall be paid at the level of the compensation table
above at any time as there is a closing  of the  Financing  or  Transaction,  or
tranche  of  the  Financing  or   Transaction,   or   finalization   of  related
documentation or purchase of a Public Shell (the "Closings"),  and at the option
of Kuhns  Brothers,  shall be paid in cash or in the  securities  of the Company
being offered in the Financing.

      In the event that Kuhns  Brothers is successful in raising the  Financing,
but the Company declines to accept the Financing,  Kuhns Brothers will be paid a
fee equal to 50% of its compensation due pursuant to the language above.

(II)  FOR MERGER AND ACQUISITION SERVICES--

      (a)   a merger and acquisition fee equal to the "Lehman  Formula" based on
            $5 million  increments,  that is, 5% of the first $5 million,  4% of
            the  second  $5  million,  etc.,  of the  consideration  paid in the
            Transaction,  or the  Lehman  Formula  of the  equity  value  of the
            organization being acquired, at the option of Kuhns Brothers.

            In the event that Kuhns  Brothers  is  involved  in both  merger and
            acquisition services and financial advisory services with respect to
            a Transaction, Kuhns Brothers shall be paid for each service.

      For purpose of this Agreement,  "consideration" means the aggregate value,
whether in cash,  securities,  assumption  (or  purchase  subject to) of debt or
liabilities  (including,  without  limitation,  indebtedness for borrowed money,
pension  liabilities or guarantees) or other property,  obligations or services,
paid or payable  directly or  indirectly  (in escrow or  otherwise) or otherwise
assumed  in  connection  with a  Transaction,  or the net  present  value of the
estimated  benefits to the Company of any joint venture,  licensing or marketing
agreement  ("Consideration").  The value of Consideration shall be determined as
follows:

                                       11
<PAGE>

      (a)   the value of  securities,  liabilities,  obligations,  property  and
            services  shall be the fair market value as shall mutually be agreed
            upon at the date of the closing of the Transaction;

      (b)   the value of indebtedness,  including indebtedness assumed, shall be
            the face amount; and/or

      (c)   the net present  value of the  estimated  benefits to the Company of
            any joint  venture,  licensing or marketing  agreement,  as mutually
            determined by the parties. If the parties cannot come to such mutual
            determination,  the net  present  value  described  above  shall  be
            determined by arbitration.

      If the Consideration payable in a Transaction includes contingent payments
to be calculated by reference to uncertain  future  occurrences,  such as future
financial or business  performance,  then any fees of Kuhns Brothers relating to
such  Consideration  shall  be  payable  at the  time  of the  receipt  of  such
Consideration.

      The Company acknowledges that Kuhns Brothers and its affiliates are in the
business of providing merger and acquisition services (of all types contemplated
by this  Agreement) to others.  Nothing herein  contained  shall be construed to
limit or restrict Kuhns  Brothers or its affiliates in conducting  such business
with respect to others or in rendering such advice to others.

      The Company also  acknowledges that Kuhns Brothers and its affiliates have
or may have ownership interests in businesses, assets or technologies identified
by them or others to the  Company  as  potential  Transactions.  Nothing  herein
contained  shall be construed to limit or restrict the ability of Kuhns Brothers
or its  affiliates  to be  compensated  for  its  ownership  interest  in such a
Transaction  on a basis  separate  and  apart  from the  compensation  described
herein.

      In connection with our merger and acquisition services,  you agree that if
during  the  period  Kuhns  Brothers  is  retained  by  you,  a  Transaction  is
consummated  with a third  party  introduced  by Kuhns  Brothers  or the Company
enters  into a  definitive  agreement  with a third  party  introduced  by Kuhns
Brothers  which  at  any  time  thereafter  results  in  a  Transaction  ("Third
Parties"),  you will pay Kuhns  Brothers a  transaction  fee equal to the Lehman
Formula times the Consideration.

      It is understood that for purposes of this Agreement, Kuhns Brothers shall
be deemed to have  introduced  such  Third  Parties to the  Company  not only by
physical  introductions  and  meetings,  but also by arranging  or  facilitating
telephonic or correspondence meetings between the parties,  whether or not Kuhns
Brothers participated in such meetings, telephone calls or correspondence.

                                       12
<PAGE>

      Additionally,  if during the period  Kuhns  Brothers is retained by you, a
Transaction is  consummated  with a third party not introduced to the Company by
Kuhns Brothers,  Kuhns will be paid a fee equal to 50% of its  compensation  due
pursuant to the language above.

(III) FOR STRATEGIC PLANNING SERVICES--

      Upon execution of this Agreement:

      (a)   commencing on upon the closing(s) of the Financing, a non-refundable
            monthly retainer of $10,000 per month will be paid to Kuhns Brothers
            in  arrears  for  work  performed  in this  Agreement  prior  to the
            closing(s) of the Financing; and

      (b)   commencing  upon the closing(s) of the Financing , a  non-refundable
            monthly  retainer of $10,000 per month,  payable on the first of the
            month,  will be paid to Kuhns  Brothers for 24 months for  strategic
            and financial advisory services.

(IV)  FOR EXPENSES--

      (a)   the Company shall pay directly the reasonable  expenses  incurred by
            Kuhns  Brothers  in relation to the  Financing,  including  expenses
            related to Kuhns Brothers' due diligence,  and shall reimburse Kuhns
            Brothers for any expenses  reasonably  incurred by it related to the
            Financing,  subject to such expenses being  authorized in advance by
            the Company (including, without limitation,  reasonable professional
            and  reasonable  legal  fees  and  disbursements  incurred  by Kuhns
            Brothers in connection with its engagement hereunder with respect to
            services  to be rendered by it, as well as any such fees or expenses
            reasonably  incurred  directly by personnel of Kuhns Brothers or its
            agents or  representatives  in connection with work on behalf of the
            Company).

      (b)   In the  event  the  Financing  does  not  close  due  to a  material
            misrepresentation  by the Company that is discovered  during the due
            diligence process, the Company will reimburse Kuhns Brothers for its
            out of pocket expenses, plus a breakage fee of $50,000.

      All  compensation  and expenses will be  reimbursed to Kuhns  Brothers via
      wire transfer. The Firm's wiring instructions are attached as Schedule A.

III.  RIGHT TO BOARD PARTICIPATION OR OBSERVER STATUS

      Kuhns  Brothers  has  the  right,  in  its  sole  discretion,  to  name  a
representative  to the  Company's  board of  directors  during  the time of this
Agreement and for such period of time after the termination of this Agreement as
any Financial or Strategic Investor introduced by Kuhns Brothers owns 5% or more
of the Company's  common stock. In its sole  discretion,  Kuhns Brothers may not
exercise its board participation  right, but shall instead choose to be named an
Observer to the Company's  board of directors.  Observer  status,  if exercised,

                                       13
<PAGE>

shall  entitle  Kuhns  Brothers to be present at all board  meetings,  including
physical and telephonic sessions, as well as to receive all information provided
to the Company's  board  members for such  meetings;  Observer  status shall not
enable Kuhns Brothers to vote or otherwise participate at such board meetings.

IV.   RIGHT TO SUB-CONTRACT OR SYNDICATE

      Kuhns Brothers has the right, in its sole discretion,  to sub-contract any
of its rights to provide  services  hereunder to qualified  third parties in its
sole discretion,  so long as Kuhns Brothers remains the prime contractor of such
services to the Company.  Kuhns Brothers has the right to enter into any finder,
inter dealer or syndication  agreements  with qualified  parties with respect to
placing and arranging the Financing.

V.    ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT BANKING SERVICES

      The Company agrees that Kuhns  Brothers shall have the right,  but not the
obligation,  which right is exercisable in Kuhns Brothers' sole  discretion,  to
provide   investment   banking   services  to  the  Company  on  an  irrevocable
preferential  right of refusal basis to provide such services in relation to the
Company's  financing for the term this Agreement and such  additional  period of
time  as may be  necessary  to  complete  any  project  or  Transaction  already
commenced  pursuant to the  Company's  written  request or  engagement  of Kuhns
Brothers  prior to the  expiration  of such 2 year  period.  Such  services  may
include  underwriting  and  acting  as  a  placement  agent  for  the  Company's
securities on a lead-managed  or co-managed  basis and providing other financial
advisory services. Such right shall terminate with respect to any transaction or
service if the Company shall request Kuhns Brothers to lead such  transaction or
to provide  such  service  and Kuhns  Brothers  shall fail to notify the Company
within  fifteen  (15) days  thereafter  that  Kuhns  Brothers  will  accept  the
engagement.  In the event that Kuhns Brothers  agrees to provide such investment
banking  services,  Kuhns  Brothers  shall be paid as  described in paragraph II
above.  The remaining  terms of such  engagement  shall be contained in specific
engagement agreements relating to the specific transaction.  Notwithstanding the
above or any oral representations or assurances  previously or subsequently made
by the parties, this Agreement does not constitute a commitment by or obligation
of Kuhns Brothers to act as underwriter  or placement  agent in connection  with
any future offering of the Company's corporate securities.  Such a commitment on
the part of Kuhns  Brothers  will  exist  only  upon the  execution  of a final,
written  engagement  agreement  and then only in  accordance  with the terms and
conditions  thereof.  In any event,  Kuhns  Brothers  may  determine in its sole
discretion,  for any reason (including,  without limitation,  the results of its
due  diligence  investigation,  a  material  change in the  Company's  financial
condition;  business  or  prospects,  the  lack of  appropriate  internal  Kuhns
Brothers  committee   approvals  or  then  current  market  conditions)  not  to
participate in such an offering of the Company's  securities.  In the event that
Kuhns  Brothers,  with  respect  to any  particular  transaction,  elects not to
provide  investment  banking or  financial  advisory  services  to the  Company,
nothing  contained  herein shall be deemed to prevent the Company from utilizing

                                       14
<PAGE>

the services of another investment  banking firm for such transaction,  but such
retention of another investment banking firm shall be without prejudice to Kuhns
Brothers' rights hereunder with respect to subsequent transactions.

      Upon  the  successful  execution  of  the  Financing,  Transaction  or any
publicly traded equity or debt capital markets transaction lead or co-managed by
Kuhns Brothers, Kuhns Brothers, in accordance with its customary practices, will
provide  market making and research  services to investors in the  securities of
the Company (subject,  however, to the Company's  continuation of its engagement
of  Kuhns  Brothers  as a  financial  advisor  pursuant  to the  terms  of  this
Agreement) for a period of two years following the closing of such financing and
related  transaction,  and subject to the Firm's  customary  right not to make a
market in such securities at any time or to suspend research coverage).

      For the  purpose of this  agreement,  "cause"  means the  failure by Kuhns
Brothers  to  perform  in  a  material  respect  its  obligations  hereunder  in
accordance  with  the  skill  and  diligence  normally  provided  by  recognized
investment banking companies;  provided,  however,  that the Company shall first
give Kuhns Brothers  reasonable  prior written notice (a minimum of fifteen days
notice) of the  Company's  intent to terminate  the  engagement  (such notice to
specify in  reasonable  detail the facts  alleged to give rise to the  Company's
right to  terminate  for  cause)  and  shall  have  provided  Kuhns  Brothers  a
reasonable   opportunity   to  cure  by   performing   such   obligations   (the
reasonableness  of such  opportunity to be measured not only by Kuhns  Brothers'
ability to perform  during  such  period but also by the  adverse  effect on the
Company resulting from providing such additional period to enable Kuhns Brothers
to perform).

VI.   INDEMNIFICATION

      The Company shall  indemnify  Kuhns Brothers and hold it harmless  against
any and all losses,  claims,  damages or liabilities to which Kuhns Brothers may
become subject  arising in any manner out of or in connection with the rendering
of  service  by  Kuhns  Brothers  hereunder,  unless  it is  finally  judicially
determined that such losses,  claims,  damages or liabilities  resulted from the
gross negligence, bad faith and willful misconduct of Kuhns Brothers.

      The Company shall reimburse Kuhns Brothers promptly for any legal or other
expenses reasonably  incurred by it in connection with investigating,  preparing
to defend or  defending,  or  providing  evidence  in or  preparing  to serve or
serving as a witness with respect to, or  otherwise  relating to, any  lawsuits,
investigations,  claims or other proceedings  arising in any manner out of or in
connection with the rendering of services by Kuhns Brothers hereunder (including
without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the
indemnification  obligations set forth herein);  provided,  however, that in the
event of a final judicial  determination  is made to the effect specified above,
Kuhns  Brothers  will remit to the  Company any  amounts  reimbursed  under such
paragraph.

                                       15
<PAGE>

      The Company agrees that the indemnification and reimbursement  commitments
set forth in this paragraph  shall apply if either the Company or Kuhns Brothers
is a formal party to any such  lawsuits,  claims or other  proceedings  and that
such commitments  shall extend upon the terms set forth in this paragraph to any
controlling person, affiliate,  director,  officer,  employee, or agent of Kuhns
Brothers (each,  with Kuhns  Brothers,  an  "Indemnified  Person").  The Company
further  agrees that,  without  Kuhns  Brothers'  prior written  consent,  which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld, it will not enter into any settlement
of a lawsuit,  claim or any other  proceeding  arising  out of the  transactions
contemplated by this Agreement  unless such settlement  includes an implicit and
unconditional  release  from the party  bringing  such  lawsuit,  claim or other
proceeding of all Indemnified Persons.

      The Company  further agrees that the  Indemnified  Persons are entitled to
retain  separate  counsel  of their  choice in  connection  with any  matters in
respect of which  Indemnification,  reimbursement  or contribution may be sought
under this  Agreement.  Fees for counsel will be payable only if management  and
counsel to the Company have has been consulted and allowed to participate  fully
in the  selection  of  reasonable  and  appropriate  counsel to the  Indemnified
Person(s).  Each  Indemnified  person  shall give notice to the  Company  within
thirty (30) days of the assertion  against such Indemnified  Person of any claim
or the  commencement  of any action or  proceeding  relating  to any  foregoing,
provided  further  that if the  Indemnified  person fails to notify the Company,
then the Company  shall be relieved  of any  liability  that it may have to such
Indemnified Person as to such claim hereunder.

      The  Company  and Kuhns  Brothers  agree  that if any  indemnification  or
reimbursement   sought  pursuant  to  the  preceding   paragraph  is  judicially
determined to be unavailable for a reason other than the gross  negligence,  bad
faith or  willful  misconduct  of Kuhns  Brothers,  then  whether  or not  Kuhns
Brothers  is the  Indemnified  Person,  the  Company  and Kuhns  Brothers  shall
contribute to the losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities and expenses for which
such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable (i) in such proportion
as is  appropriate  to reflect the  relative  benefits to the Company on the one
hand, and Kuhns Brothers on the other hand, in connection with the  transactions
to  which  such  indemnification  or  reimbursement  relates,  or  (ii)  if  the
allocation  provided  by clause  (i) above is  judicially  determined  not to be
permitted, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits  referred to in clause (i) but also the relative  faults of the Company
on the one hand,  and Kuhns  Brothers  on the other  hand,  as well as any other
equitable considerations;  provided,  however, that in no event shall the amount
to be contributed by Kuhns Brothers pursuant to this paragraph exceed the amount
of the fees actually received by Kuhns Brothers hereunder.

VII.  MISCELLANEOUS

      Except as  contemplated  by the terms hereof or subpoena issued by a court
of competent jurisdiction, Kuhns Brothers shall keep confidential all non-public
information  provided  to it  by  the  Company,  and  shall  not  disclose  such
information to any third party, other than such of its employees and advisors as
Kuhns Brothers determines to have a need to know.

                                       16
<PAGE>

      Except as required by  applicable  law, any advice to be provided by Kuhns
Brothers under this Agreement shall not be disclosed  publicly or made available
to any  third  parties  without  the  prior  approval  by  Kuhns  Brothers,  and
accordingly  such advice  shall not be relied upon by any person or entity other
than the Company.

      The term of Kuhns  Brothers'  engagement  hereunder  shall extend from the
date hereof until  terminated as set forth below.  Subject to the  provisions of

understanding  between the parties,  either party may terminate  Kuhns Brothers'
engagement  hereunder  at any time by giving  the  other  party at least 10 days
written notice.

      The  Company   agrees  that  Kuhns   Brothers   has  the  right  to  place
advertisements  in financial and other  newspapers  and journals  describing the
Company's  Financing  and  Kuhns  Brothers'  related  services  to  the  Company
hereunder,  provided  that  Kuhns  Brothers  will  submit  a copy  of  any  such
advertisements  to the Company for its prior approval,  which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld.

      Nothing in this Agreement,  expressed or implied, is intended to confer or
does it confer on any person or entity  other than the  parties  hereto or their
respective successors and assigns, and to the extent expressly set forth herein,
the  Indemnified  Persons,  any  rights or  remedies  under or by reason of this
Agreement  or as a result  of the  services  to be  rendered  by Kuhns  Brothers
hereunder.

      Neither the execution and delivery of this letter Agreement by the Company
nor the consummation of the transactions  contemplated  hereby will, directly or
indirectly,  with or without the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both: (i)
violate any  provisions of the  Certificate of  Incorporation  or By-laws of the
Company; or (ii) violate, or be in conflict with, or constitute a default under,
any agreement, lease, mortgage, debt or obligation of the Company or require the
payment, any pre-payment or other penalty with respect thereto.

      The  invalidity or  unenforceability  of any  provision of this  Agreement
shall not affect the validity or  enforceability of any other provisions of this
Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

      This Agreement may not be amended or modified  except in writing signed by
each of the  parties  and shall be governed  by and  construed  and  enforced in
accordance  with the laws of the State of  Connecticut.  The  Company  and Kuhns
Brothers  hereby  irrevocably  and  unconditionally  consent  to  submit  to the
exclusive  jurisdiction  of the  courts of the State of  Connecticut  and of the

or other proceedings  arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agree not

The Company  further  agrees that  service of any  process,  summons,  notice or
document by mail, return receipt  requested,  to the Company's address set forth
above shall be  effective  service of process for any  lawsuit,  action or other

relating  to this  Agreement  in the courts of the State of  Connecticut  or the
United States District  Courts located in the State of  Connecticut,  and hereby
further irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in
any such court that any such lawsuit,  action or other proceeding brought in any
such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Any right to trial by jury
with  respect  to any  lawsuit,  claim or  other  proceeding  arising  out of or
relating to this  Agreement  or the  services  to be rendered by Kuhns  Brothers
