Vertical Capital Partners, Inc.
488 Madison Avenue
New York, New York  10022

Dear Mr. Heineman:

     This agreement ("Agreement") confirms the terms on which Informedix
Acquisition Corp., Inc. (the "Company") has engaged Vertical Capital Partners,
Inc. (the "Placement Agent") in connection with the proposed best efforts
offering and sale by the Company (the "Offering") of a minimum of $500,000 and
up to a maximum of $3,000,000 of common stock (the "Securities") at a price of
$1.00 per share in a private placement.

     1. Engagement. The Company has engaged the Placement Agent to act as
placement agent (on a reasonable best efforts basis only subject to satisfactory
completion of Placement Agent's due diligence) for the Offering. The Company
acknowledges and agrees that Placement Agent reserves the right not to
participate in the Offering and that Placement Agent's engagement hereunder is
not an agreement by Placement Agent or any of its affiliates to underwrite or
purchase any of the Company's securities (including the Securities) or otherwise
provide any financing. Said offering will commence only when and if the Company
is public or merger with a public company and as such this offering will be
above for the public entity.

     2. The Offering. The Securities proposed to be sold in the Offering will
not be registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") or any state securities authority but will be offered pursuant to the
exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), and/or under Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated
under Act ("Regulation D") and applicable state securities laws. The Securities
in the Offering will be sold only to accredited investors (as that term is
defined in Regulation D) pursuant to a private placement offering documents to
be prepared by the Company (the "Offering

<PAGE>

Memorandum").

     3. Subscription Procedure. The Offering Memorandum will be submitted to all
potential subscribers in the Offering (a "Subscriber"). Each Subscriber will be
required to complete and execute a Subscription Agreement and a Purchaser's
Questionnaire in the form attached to the Offering Memorandum (the "Subscription
Documents"). The Subscribers will be instructed to deliver directly to the
Placement Agent the completed Subscription Documents together with a check made
payable to (or verification of wire transfer to) ________________ as Escrow
Agent for the Company (the "Escrow Agent") for the number of Securities desired
to be purchased. After the Placement Agent reviews the Subscription Documents,
the Placement Agent will forward a copy of the Subscription Documents that are
properly completed by accredited investors to the Company. The Company shall
decide as promptly as practicable after it receives Subscription Documents from
the Placement Agent (but once the minimum offering of the Securities is sold, in
no event later than 5 business days after receipt of such documents) whether or
not to accept the subscription.

     If the Company elects not to accept a subscription, it will notify the
Placement Agent in writing and that Subscriber's check will be returned to the
Subscriber by the Placement Agent.

     If the Company elects to accept a subscription, an authorized officer of
the Company will immediately counter-sign the Subscription Documents (a
"Subscription Acceptance") and forward a copy thereof to the Placement Agent
upon receipt of which the Placement Agent will forward that Subscriber's check
to the Escrow Agent for deposit in an escrow account (the "Escrow Account") or
if that Subscriber's funds were transmitted to the Escrow Agent by wire, the
parties may independently verify that such wire was received by the Escrow
Agent. All checks and wire transfers that are deposited into the Escrow Account
will hereinafter be referred to as "Offering Proceeds."

     Notwithstanding any Subscription Acceptance, unless the minimum offering of
the Securities is sold on or before December 31, 2002 or a 30 day extension
period thereafter by mutual consent of the Company and the Placement Agent, the
Offering will terminate and all funds theretofore received from the sale of the
Securities will be promptly returned to the Subscribers without deduction
therefrom or interest thereon.

     4. Closing. If the minimum offering is completed within the period set
forth herein above, the Company and the Placement Agent may give joint written
instructions to the Escrow Agent to release the minimum offering proceeds to the
Company (less the

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Placement Agent's Fees and Expense Allowance (as defined below)). Thereafter,
the remaining Securities up to the amount of the maximum offering will be
offered on a reasonable best efforts basis until the first to occur of (i) the
completion of the maximum offering, (ii) the end of the offering period, or
(iii) the termination of the offering by the Company. Each date on which the
Company and the Placement Agent deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow
Agent shall be considered a "Closing" and the date on which a Closing occurs
shall be considered a "Closing Date." On each Closing Date, the Company shall
deliver to each Subscriber whose subscription has been accepted by the Company
(hereinafter referred to as an "Investor"), via overnight courier, one or more
certificates or instruments representing the number of Securities purchased by
the Investor, registered in the name of the Investor, and a copy of that
Investor's Subscription Documents counter-signed by the Company.

     5. Disbursement of Offering Proceeds. The Company and the Placement Agent
agree that Offering Proceeds will not be disbursed from the Escrow Account
except as provided in Section 4 hereof and as permitted in the Escrow Agreement
to be entered into between the parties hereto and the Escrow Agent (the "Escrow
Agreement"). At any time, or from time to time, simultaneously with any Closing
Date, the parties agree that notwithstanding any thing to the contrary in this
Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent may at the Placement Agent's
sole request deliver to the Placement Agent the portion of the Offering Proceeds
from the Escrow Account that at the date of such request constitute the unpaid
but accrued Placement Agent's Fees and the Expense Allowance (as defined
herein).

     6. Terms of Engagement.

            Section 6.1 Fees. (a) As compensation for acting as Placement Agent
for the Offering, the Placement Agent will be entitled to receive a commission
equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate offering price of all Securities
sold in the Offering (the "Placement Agent's Fee") plus an expense allowance
equal to two percent (2%) of the aggregate offering price of all Securities sold
in the Offering (the "Expense Allowance"). Up to eight percent (8%) of the
Placement Agent's Fee may be paid by the Placement Agent to syndicated selected
dealers. The Expense Allowance is intended to cover the Placement Agent's
expenses incurred in connection with the Offering. The Placement Agent shall not
be required to make an accounting to the Company with respect to said expenses.

                  (b) On the last Closing Date of the Offering, the Company
shall issue to the Placement Agent and/or its affiliates five (5) year exercise
warrants to purchase a number of

                                      -3-

Securities equal to ten percent (10%) of the total number of Securities issued
in the Offering exercisable, on a cashless basis, at $1.50 in the form of
definitive warrant agreement submitted by the Placement Agent (the "Placement
Agent's Warrants"). In addition to all other fees, the Company shall pay its

Subscribers reside (the "Blue Sky Fees"). None of such warrants will be held by
Rockwell Capital LLC.

            Section 6.2 Syndication. The Placement Agent shall have the right to
form a syndicate of selected dealers, reasonably acceptable to the Company, who
will assist the Placement Agent in the Offering. Any firm with which the
Placement Agent associates will be a United States broker-dealer and a member in
good standing of the NASD or a foreign broker-dealer and/or a member in good
standing of a national stock exchange of its country of origin. Each selected
dealer will be solely responsible for its own due diligence review of the
Company and for complying with all laws and regulations (including without
limitation blue sky laws and filings requirements associated therewith) required
to be complied with as a result of such selected dealers participation in the
Offering.

            Section 6.3 Market. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Placement Agent shall not be obligated to make a market in
the Company's common stock or any other securities of the Company.

            Section 6.4 Matters Relating to Engagement. The Company acknowledges
that the Placement Agent has been retained solely to provide the services set
forth in this Agreement. In rendering such services, the Placement Agent shall
act as an independent contractor, and any duties of the Placement Agent arising
out of its engagement hereunder shall be owed solely to the Company. The Company
further acknowledges that Placement Agent may perform certain of the services
described herein through one or more of its affiliates. The Company acknowledges
and agrees that the Placement Agent is not, and does not hold itself out to be,
an advisor as to legal, tax, accounting or regulatory matters in any
jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such
matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation
and appraisal of the risks, benefits and suitability of the transactions
contemplated by this letter agreement, and the Placement Agent shall have no
responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto.

     8. Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with the
Placement Agent as follows:

            Section 8.1 Compliance with Laws. The sale and issuance of the
Securities shall be made in accordance with the provisions and requirements of
the Act, Regulation D and any and all applicable state and local law. Neither
the Company nor any of its affiliates will take any action in connection with
the Offering, which would cause the Offering not to comply with Section 4(2) of
the Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Company will
make a timely filing of Form D (and all necessary amendments) pursuant to the
requirements of Regulation D. The Company shall exercise the most diligent care
to assure that the Investors are not underwriters within the meaning of Section
2(11) of the Act and shall take all actions required by Rule 502(d) of
Regulation D. The Company, in its sole discretion, will not accept a
subscription from an Investor if the Company has reason to believe that material
information supplied by or material representations or warranties made by such
Investor are not fully accurate. The Company shall reasonably believe,
immediately prior to making any sale, that each Investor is an accredited
investor, and either alone or with his purchaser representative, has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Investor is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of a purchase of the Securities and
otherwise meets the suitability standards set forth in the Offering Memorandum.
The Company shall keep the Offering Memorandum confidential and shall not
distribute it or any other materials related to the transaction contemplated
hereby, or otherwise advertise to or

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

solicit purchasers of the Securities, without the prior express written consent
of the Placement Agent. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates nor any
distributor, independent contractor or any person acting on its or their behalf
(i) has conducted or will conduct any general solicitation (as that term is used
in Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to any of the Securities,
or (ii) has made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to
buy any security under any circumstances that would prevent the issuance of the
Securities or the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Securities
from qualifying the Securities from an exemption from registration under the
Act.

            Section 8.2 Offering Memorandum. The Offering Memorandum, the
appendices and exhibits attached thereto, information incorporated by reference
therein and the financial statements of the Company and the related notes
thereto included therein, and all amendments and supplements thereto in the form
delivered to the Investors prior to a Closing and at any Closing Date will be
prepared in compliance with, and include the disclosure required by, the Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or the laws of any state or
jurisdiction, and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
any statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are
made, not misleading.

            Section 8.3 Delivery and Amendment of Offering Memorandum. Up to and
through the final Closing Date if any event shall occur as a result of which the
Offering Memorandum or any exhibits thereto would include any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, when such Offering Memorandum was delivered, not misleading or for any
other reason it shall be necessary to amend or supplement the Offering
Memorandum or to file under the Exchange Act any document incorporated by
reference in the Offering Memorandum in order to comply with the Act or the
Exchange Act, the Company shall immediately notify the Placement Agent in
writing to suspend offers for sale and solicitations of purchases of the
Securities. If the Company shall determine to amend or supplement the Offering
Memorandum, the Company will so advise the Placement Agent and will promptly
prepare an amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum that will correct
such statement or omission or effect such compliance and will advise the
Placement Agent when it may resume offers for sale, and solicitations of
purchases, of the Securities. The Company will immediately thereafter deliver to
the Placement Agent without charge as many copies of the supplemented or amended
Offering Memorandum as the Placement

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

Agent may reasonably request for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement.

            Section 8.4 Use of Proceeds. The Company will apply the net proceeds
from the sale of the Securities in the manner set forth under the caption "Use
of Proceeds" in the Offering Memorandum.

fees and taxes in connection with (a) the preparation, printing and delivery of
copies of the Offering Memorandum and all amendments and supplements thereto,

            Section 8.7 Registration Rights.

                  (a) (i) In the event that the Company proposes to file a
registration statement on a general form of registration under the Securities
Act (other than a form S-8, S-4, or registration for new Funding in a PIPE or
other form) then it shall give written notice of such proposal to the record
owner(s) of the Securities. If, within 10 days after the giving of such notice,
any of the record owners of any of the Securities shall request in writing that
any of the Securities be included in such proposed registration, the Company
shall, at its own expense also register such number of Securities as shall have
been so requested in writing; provided, however, that the record owners of such
Securities cooperate with the Company in the preparation of such registration
statement and to the extent required furnish such information as may reasonably
be requested by the Company for the purpose of accurately preparing such
registration statement.

securities, then such period shall be extended by the amount of such delay), or
(B) the date the Securities are sold or become available for public sale without
restriction under the Act; provided, however, that such undertaking shall apply
only to the extent that the Company is permitted to register such securities for
continuous sale under Rule 415 of the general rules promulgated under the Act,
under any successor provision, or under authoritative interpretations of
applicable law.

                  (b) The Company agrees that the costs and expenses which it is
obligated to pay in connection with a registration statement to be filed

meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and all
employees of the Placement Agent (the "Placement Agent Affiliates") from and
against any loss, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of
investigation) which, jointly or severally, any such Placement Agent Affiliates
controlling person may incur insofar as such loss, expense, liability or claim
arises out of (i) any breach by

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

the Company of any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein or in
any of the agreements referenced herein, (ii) Placement Agent's service as
Placement Agent hereunder, (iii) or based upon any untrue statement or alleged

use with reference to such Placement Agent in such Offering Memorandum or
Registration Statement.

pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, the Placement Agent shall notify the
Company in writing of the institution of such action and the Company shall
assume the defense of such action, including the employment of counsel and
payment of all expenses related to such action including without limitation
attorney and paralegal fees. The Placement Agent and any Placement Agent

case at the sole expense of the Company if the Company shall not have employed
counsel to have charge of the defense of such action or such indemnified party
or the Placement Agent or such Placement Agent Affiliate shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different
from or additional to those available to the Company (in which case the Company
shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the
indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such and expenses shall be
borne by the Company and paid as incurred. Anything in this paragraph to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be liable for any settlement of
any such claim or action effected without its written consent.

                  (b) The Placement Agent agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
the Company harmless from and against any loss, expense, liability or claim
(including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally,
the Company incurs insofar as such loss, expense, liability or claim (i) arises
out of or is based upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in and
in conformity with information furnished in

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

writing by the Placement Agent to the Company expressly for use with reference
to the Placement Agent in the Offering Memorandum or Registration Statement, or
(ii) arises out of or is based upon the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of the Placement Agent with respect to this Agreement as determined in a final
judgment by a Court of competent jurisdiction from which no appeal can be or is
taken. Neither the Placement Agent nor any Placement Agent Affiliate shall have
any liability (whether direct or indirect, by statute, in contract or tort or
otherwise) to the Company or to any third party in connection with the
Registration Statement or the resale by the Investors of the Securities or the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities.

      If any action is brought against the Company or any of the Company
Affiliates or any such person in respect of which indemnity may be sought
against the Placement Agent pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, the Company
shall promptly notify the Placement Agent in writing of the institution of such
action and the Placement Agent shall assume the defense of such action,
including the employment of counsel and payment of expenses. The Company shall
have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company unless (i) the
employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the
Placement Agent in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) or the
Placement Agent shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of
such action, (iii) or such indemnified party or the Company shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which
are different from or additional to those available to the Placement Agent (in
which case the Placement Agent shall not have the right to direct the defense of
such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which
events such reasonable fees and expenses shall be borne by the Placement Agent
and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the Placement Agent
shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel in any
one action or series of related actions in the same jurisdiction representing
the indemnified parties who are parties to such action). Anything in this
paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the Placement Agent shall not be
liable for any settlement of any such claim or action effected without the
written consent of the Placement Agent.

                  (c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections (a) and (b) of this
Section 10 with respect of any losses, expenses, liabilities or claims referred
to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying
such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, expenses,

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

liabilities or claims (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement
Agent on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the
allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on
the one hand and of the Placement Agent on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, expenses, liabilities or
claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the
other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from
the offering (net of the Placement Agent Fee but before deducting expenses)
received by the Company bear to the Placement Agent Fee. The relative fault of
the Company on the one hand and of the Placement Agent on the other shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission
relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Placement Agent and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a
party as a result of the losses, expenses, liabilities and claims referred to
above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any claim
or action.

                  (d) The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does
not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection (c)
above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, the Placement Agent
shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
the total price at which the Securities were sold exceeds the amount of any
damages which the Placement Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason
of such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.

                  (e) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in
this Section 10 and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Company
contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of
any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or any Placement
Agent Affiliate, or by or on behalf of the Company, shall survive

other of the commencement of any litigation or proceeding against it and, in the
case of the Company, and in the case of the Placement Agent, any Placement Agent
Affiliate, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities, or in
connection with the Offering Memorandum or Registration Statement. The
contribution provisions contained in this Section 10 are in addition to any
other rights or remedies which either party hereto may have with respect to the
other or hereunder.

     11. Survival of Certain Provisions. Regardless of any due diligence
investigation by the Placement Agent, the indemnity and other agreements

provided in Sections 4 and 7 hereof. except that the Company shall remain
obligated to pay costs and expenses to the extent provided in Section 4 of this
Agreement.

reason, if a private placement of securities is consummated within one year
following such termination by the Company with a party that the Placement Agent
contacted regarding the Company pursuant to and as part of its engagement by the
Company, the Placement Agent shall be entitled to receive the Placement Agent's
Fee, the Expense Allowance, the Placement Agent's Warrants and all other amounts
provided for in this Agreement, as if this Agreement had not been terminated.
Upon any such termination the Placement Agent will provide a list of

such parties.

deal with a Public Shell.

Pipe investors                                                       2,500,000

         (Upon closing of the merger $150,000 will be loaned or invested in
         InforMedix. Within 60 to 90 days an additional $350,000 to $500,000
         will be raised and a PIPE of $2-3 million at $1.00 per share shall be
         raised within 1 year from closing of the merger. Money shall be raised
         through Vertical Capital Partners, a member of the NASD)

* Of the 9.5 million shares, 1.5 million shall vest over 3 years provided
projections are met. If projections are not met in any given year, 500,000 of
the 1,500,000 will be cancelled.
