EXHIBIT 10.35

            ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGY SHARING AGREEMENT

         This Administrative Services and Technology Sharing Agreement (the
"Agreement") is effective as of January 27, 2000 (the "Effective Date") by and
between OPENCLOSE.COM, INC., a Florida corporation (the "Client"), and
MORTGAGE.COM, INC., a Florida corporation ("MDCM").

                               FACTUAL BACKGROUND

                  A. The Client is a newly-formed, majority-owned subsidiary of
MDCM. MDCM's Openclose Division has developed, in cooperation with Fannie Mae, a
Web site whereby participating mortgage lenders, brokers and vendors can
exchange lender product and pricing information, automated underwriting data and
borrower application information in a neutral environment. This Web site,
http://www.openclose.com/ (the "Openclose Web Site") is designed to expand the
availability of important and useful underwriting information, which results in
faster transactions, cost savings for borrowers, brokers, and lenders by
eliminating unnecessary paperwork, and improved communications between lenders
and brokers. MDCM has transferred a co-ownership interest in the Openclose Web
Site to the Client. The Client also provides custom versions of the Openclose
Web Site to mortgage lenders and brokers for use in their own names ("Private
Label").

                  B. The Client believes that it may be more efficient to
"outsource" certain administrative, management and technology support related
functions, thereby providing the Client with access to higher quality and more
sophisticated level of support at a lower cost because of the ability to "share"
the cost with other customers of the "outsource" provider. Of course, the
Client, desiring to be a stand-alone business, will retain other administrative
and management functions "in-house" where it is necessary for the "core
business" and is more cost effective or is otherwise more desirable.

                  C. The Client desires to have access to and the use of certain
assets of which MDCM is the owner or licensee.

                  D. The Client also desires to engage MDCM to perform certain
technology services including Web hosting and source code development services.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1.       MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY SERVICES.

                  (a) ENGAGEMENT. The Client hereby engages MDCM to provide the
         following services:

                           (i) FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING MATTERS. MDCM shall
                  maintain Client's general ledger, accounts receivable and
                  accounts payable records, and fixed asset records and provide
                  billing and collection services. MDCM shall also

                  prepare or cause to be prepared Client's federal, state and
                  local tax returns, and financial statements. MDCM shall also
                  provide, or cause to be provided, to Client payroll services,
                  including assistance with regulatory compliance matters. MDCM
                  shall maintain all past accounting, tax and payroll records
                  until such time as such records shall be disposed of in
                  accordance with applicable legal requirements and MDCM's
                  normal record disposal policies.

                           (ii) INSURANCE MATTERS. MDCM shall provide or cause
                  to be provided to Client insurance with the coverage,
                  insurers, and maximum deductibles set forth on SCHEDULE
                  1(a)(ii). All such insurance policies shall add Client as an
                  additional named insured and such insurers shall be required
                  to provide Client with no less than 5 days prior written
                  notice of any change or cancellation of any such insurance. In
                  the event of any such potential change which may have a
                  materially adverse affect on the Client, or in the event of
                  potential cancellation, Client shall be entitled to secure
                  replacement insurance at its own cost.

                           (iii) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS MATTERS. MDCM shall provide
                  or cause to be provided administrative services necessary to
                  the provision and maintenance of customary employee benefits,
                  including without limitation the Client's 401(k) Plan,
                  medical, dental, vision, and life insurance programs, and
                  stock option plan, and to the extent feasible, will permit the
                  employees of the Client to participate in MDCM's 401(k),
                  insurance and stock option plans.

                           (iv) LEGAL SERVICES. MDCM shall provide Client with
                  all legal services reasonably requested by Client which MDCM
                  in-house counsel currently provides to MDCM in the ordinary
                  course of business.

                           (v) FACILITIES MANAGEMENT SERVICES. As to the office
                  space described in Section 5, MDCM shall provide Client with
                  all facilities management services that MDCM currently
                  provides in the standard course of business in office space
                  occupied by MDCM. MDCM shall provide Client with the use of
                  computer equipment currently used in the Openclose Business.

                           (vi) IT SERVICES. MDCM shall provide certain general
                  information technology services and infrastructure including
                  assistance with, installation, and maintenance of telephonic
                  and computer equipment. As to the office space described in
                  Section 5, MDCM shall also provide Client with the use of
                  MDCM's existing and future telephone automatic call
                  distribution networks and systems and email systems. MDCM
                  shall provide such technical support and maintenance as Client
                  reasonably requests for Client and its clients and licensees
                  for the Software (as defined in the License Agreement) and the
                  Openclose Code. Client will not be charged for revisions or
                  updates provided under the License Agreement.

                           (vii) WEB HOSTING AND MAINTENANCE OF OPENCLOSE WEB
                  SITE. MDCM will provide Web hosting services for the Openclose
                  Web Site pursuant to the Web Hosting Agreement attached as
                  EXHIBIT A. In consideration of hosting the Openclose Web Site,
                  Client shall pay to MDCM $5,000 per month, or such other
                  amount negotiated from time to time and stated in the Web
                  Hosting Agreement, commencing with the month following the
                  last month of a three-consecutive-month period in which Client
                  has positive net income, as reflected on the monthly financial
                  statements prepared by or for Client.

                           (viii) WEB HOSTING OF PRIVATE LABEL SITES. MDCM will
                  provide Web hosting services for Client's Private Label Web
                  sites for the following costs and charges: (i) for Private
                  Label Web sites provided to brokers under the Countrywide
                  Agreement, Client shall pay MDCM $20 per month per Private
                  Label Web site and (ii) for all other Private Label Web sites,
                  Client shall pay to MDCM monthly an amount equal to 10% of the
                  monthly receipts generated from each Private Label Web site,
                  such payment to be made within 30 days following the end of
                  the month for which receipts are being determined. Client
                  shall be entitled to offer to its clients MDCM's Private Label
                  Web Hosting services provided that the applicable agreement
                  includes provisions substantially similar to those set forth
                  in EXHIBIT A attached hereto, except that the limitation of
                  liability set forth therein and established at $100,000 shall
                  be modified as the parties mutually agree. Each such agreement
                  shall identify MDCM as an intended third party beneficiary of
                  such agreement and MDCM shall perform the hosting services
                  therein. In the event of termination of such Web Hosting
                  Services as permitted pursuant to the applicable agreement, if
                  the third party client requests and Client agrees, MDCM shall
                  transfer such site to Client or to such other location as
                  Client shall direct, for Client to assume hosting obligations.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, MDCM shall continue to provide
                  and shall comply with all of its obligations under the Web
                  site hosting agreements set forth on SCHEDULE 1(a)(viii)
                  hereto (the "Existing Client Web Site Hosting Agreements")
                  even if such agreements have been assigned to Client under the
                  Contribution Agreement, unless Client directs otherwise. MDCM
                  shall not terminate or modify such agreements without Client's
                  prior written consent unless termination is permitted by the
                  Existing Client Web Site Hosting Agreements. MDCM will use
                  commercially reasonable efforts to notify Client of the
                  reason(s) for such termination as soon as reasonably
                  practicable after such termination.

                           Openclose shall require the operator of each Private
         Label Web site (other than existing operators of Private Label Web
         sites identified on SCHEDULE 1(a)(viii)) to execute a Web hosting
         agreement that includes provisions substantially similar to the Web
         Hosting Agreement attached as EXHIBIT A, except that the limitation of
         liability set forth therein and established at $100,000 shall be
         modified as the parties mutually agree. Each such agreement shall
         identify MDCM as an intended third party beneficiary. Except as
         described in Section 7, nothing herein shall prevent Client from
         offering additional Web hosting services through itself or third
         parties.

                           (ix) COOPERATION IN TRANSFERRING WEB SITES. In the
                  event Client moves its Openclose Web Site or any of its
                  Private Label Web sites to another host, MDCM shall reasonably
                  cooperate in the transfer of the Web sites to the new host.

                           (x) FANNIE MAE CONTENT. Pursuant to the Amended and
                  Restated Desktop Underwriter Seller/Servicer Software License
                  and Subscription Agreement between MDCM and Fannie Mae entered
                  into October 1998 (the "Fannie Mae Agreement"), MDCM has
                  access to certain technology made available by Fannie Mae (the
                  "Fannie Mae Content"). As part of its obligations as co-owner
                  of the Openclose Code, MDCM shall provide Client with access
                  to the results generated by the Fannie Mae Content and shall
                  assist Client in incorporating such results into the Openclose
                  Web Site. Client understands and agrees that use of and access
                  to the Fannie Mae Content under this Agreement is subject to
                  the terms and conditions of the Fannie Mae Agreement and that
                  such use and access shall terminate on the earlier of (i)
                  expiration or termination of Fannie Mae Agreement, (ii)
                  expiration or termination of this Agreement, or (iii) transfer
                  of MDCM's interest in the Openclose Code to Client as set
                  forth in Section 5.03 of the Contribution Agreement. MDCM
                  hereby represents and warrants that the Fannie Mae Agreement
                  is in full force and effect, that neither MDCM nor Fannie Mae
                  are in breach thereof, that MDCM is entitled to provide the
                  services and access hereunder provided to Client. MDCM hereby
                  agrees to use its best efforts to maintain the Fannie Mae
                  Agreement in full force and effect for the remaining term of
                  the Fannie Mae Agreement and any renewal terms provided for
                  therein and agrees to pursue on behalf of the Client any
                  remedies for indemnification or otherwise on behalf of the
                  Client.

                           (xi) DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT. MDCM shall perform such
                  specific consulting projects and research projects for source
                  code development, from time to time, as shall be requested by
                  the Client and upon such terms as may be agreed upon between
                  the Client and MDCM; provided that the cost of these services
                  to Client will equal MDCM's salary and benefits costs for the
                  employee-developers and other direct costs and expenses, plus
                  10%. It is understood between the parties that to the extent
                  that MDCM performs development services for the Client on or
                  in connection with the Openclose Web Site or Openclose Code,
                  Client shall own all rights in the results and proceeds of
                  such services (other than pre-existing works or material
                  licensed from third parties), unless the parties agree
                  otherwise in writing. Nothing herein shall prevent the Client
                  itself or through third parties from performing such
                  development services from time to time.

                           (xii) OTHER SERVICES PROVIDED BY MDCM. MDCM shall
                  provide and perform such other services, as shall be requested
                  by the Client and agreed upon between the Client and MDCM,
                  from time to time, at such price and on such terms as agreed.

                           (xiii) GHR CONTRACT. Pursuant to the Technology
                  Sharing and Marketing Agreement between MDCM and GHR Systems,
                  Inc. dated August 31st, 1998, as amended ( the "GHR
                  Contract"), MDCM and GHR share certain technology, revenue,
                  business knowledge and marketing and sales capabilities,
                  portions of which apply to the Client's Business, as
                  hereinafter defined. To the extent that the obligations of GHR
                  under the GHR Contract pertain to or are necessary for
                  Client's Business, MDCM and Client agree to use their
                  reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in order
                  to ensure that MDCM and Client each receive the benefit of,
                  and discharge the responsibilities of, the GHR Contract that
                  pertain respectively to MDCM's Business and Client's Business,
                  as their interests may appear. Without limiting the generality
                  of the foregoing MDCM agrees upon receipt of notice from
                  Client to register with GHR prospects of Client under section
                  3.d of Schedule A of the GHR Contract, to pay to Client all
                  amounts received from GHR that pertain solely to marketing
                  related to Client's Business. MDCM further agrees not to
                  terminate the GHR Contract without Client's prior written
                  consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. MDCM
                  further agrees that in connection with a renegotiation or
                  renewal of the GHR Contract, Client shall have the right to
                  direct MDCM as to whether the renegotiated or renewed GHR
                  Contract provides GHR with any marketing or other rights with
                  respect to Openclose Code. Client agrees to reimburse MDCM for
                  any amounts required to be paid by MDCM to GHR that pertain to
                  Client's Business provided that to the extent it has a right
                  to do so, MDCM shall not incur any expenses that relate to
                  Client's Business without Client's prior written consent.

                           (xiv) DEXMA AGREEMENT, EXISTING WEB SITE HOSTING
                  AGREEMENTS AND LENDER/BROKER CONTRACTS. The parties
                  acknowledge that the Dexma Agreement and the Existing Web Site
                  Hosting Agreements entered into prior to the date hereof are
                  necessary for the operation of the Openclose Business but are
                  not being assigned contemporaneously herewith and that all or
                  a portion of the lender and broker agreements may not be
                  currently assigned. MDCM agrees to execute any necessary
                  documents, instruments or agreements necessary to assign these
                  agreements to Client upon Client's request and agrees that
                  until the earlier of the expiration of the term of each such
                  agreement (including any renewal periods contained therein) or
                  any such assignment, MDCM shall use its best efforts to keep
                  such agreements in full force and effect. MDCM further agrees
                  that until the assignment of each of the aforementioned
                  agreements, MDCM shall take all actions to enforce its rights
                  under the agreements at the direction of Client and shall
                  promptly remit to Client any proceeds, revenues or
                  consideration received in connection with such agreements.

                  (b) COMPENSATION. For services described in subsections
         (a)(i), (a)(iii), (a)(iv), (a)(v) and (a)(vi) of this Section 1 (the
         "Administrative Services"), MDCM shall be compensated based on the
         following allocation of costs and expenses. Allocation of costs and
         expenses for Administrative Services shall be determined by headcount
         as follows: MDCM shall determine the ratio of MDCM employees working
         full-time on Administrative Services for Client to the number of MDCM
         full-time employees on its payroll. Such ratio shall be applied to
         MDCM's total salary, benefits costs and other direct costs and expenses
         for its employees to determine the pass-through cost to Client. For
         example, if 75 MDCM employees are working full-time on Administrative
         Services for Client and MDCM has 750 full-time employees on its

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

         payroll, Such ratio shall be applied to MDCM's total salary, benefits
         costs and other direct costs and expenses for its employees to
         determine the pass-through cost to Client. For example, if 75 MDCM
         employees are working full-time on Administrative Services for CLient
         and MDCM has 750 full-time employees on its payroll, Client will be
         charged 10% of MDCM's total salary costs, employee benefits costs and
         other direct costs and expenses relating to MDCM financial, accounting,
         employee benefits, human resources, legal, facilities management and IT
         services. The same headcount ratio shall be applied to the cost of
         insurance provided under Section 1(a)(ii) to determine a pass-through
         cost to Client. Additional compensation is as otherwise described in
         the sections of this Agreement describing the services to be provided
         to Client.

                  MDCM has attached as Schedule 1(b) its budget and estimate of
the costs anticipated to be incurred by Client in connection therewith for the
calendar years 2000 and 2001. Within 30 days prior to the commencement of each
calendar year of the term of this Agreement, MDCM shall provide to Client for
Client's approval a similar budget, adjusted for the forthcoming year. MDCM
shall not be entitled to incur any expense that is not set forth in such a
budget without Client's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Nothing in the budget shall be construed to limit Client's ability to require
MDCM to provide services under Section 1(a) or limit the compensation to which
MDCM shall be entitled for services rendered to Client that are not described in
the budget.

         2.       OWNERSHIP AND USE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

                  (a) OPENCLOSE CODE. The term "Openclose Code" refers to the
         programming and other intellectual property identified in the
         Contribution Agreement among MDCM, Client and the other parties
         thereto, of even date herewith (the "Contribution Agreement"). Solely
         in order to provide the services described in Section 1(a)(xi), MDCM
         may retain a reasonable number of copies of the Openclose Code (in both
         object code and source code forms) and all associated documentation
         which MDCM shall treat as Confidential Information of Client in
         accordance with this Agreement, and, upon termination or expiration of
         this Agreement for any reason, MDCM shall deliver to Client any and all
         copies of such Openclose Code, and modifications and derivative works
         based thereon, in whatever form or medium. MDCM acknowledges and agrees
         that Client shall be considered a joint owner and co-inventor of all
         copyrights, trade secrets, inventions, proprietary rights and
         intellectual property contained in the Openclose Code. MDCM warrants
         that no other copies of the Openclose Code exist on the date hereof.

                  (b) DELIVERY OF MODIFICATIONS OF OPENCLOSE CODE. In the event
         that MDCM at Client's request carries out any modifications of or
         preparation of any derivative works based on the Openclose Code, MDCM
         shall within ten (10) days of such services deliver to Client updated
         source and object code, all copies and documentation in connection
         therewith.

                  (c) DERIVATIVE WORKS OF OPENCLOSE CODE. All derivative works

         ("Derivative Openclose Code") shall be owned by Client. Such ownership
         rights shall be confirmed in the written terms agreed upon by the
         parties for such development or in any other agreement or document the
         Client reasonably requests MDCM to execute. Nothing herein shall
         entitle MDCM to create any such derivative works except pursuant to the
         provisions of a separate written agreement between the parties pursuant
         to Section 1(a)(xi) or otherwise.

                  (d) LICENSE TO MDCM CODE. MDCM shall grant Client a perpetual,
         world-wide, irrevocable non-exclusive license to the object code and
         source code versions of certain software, technology and other rights
         ("MDCM Code"), pursuant to the License Agreement attached hereto as
         Exhibit B (the "License Agreement"). As provided in the License
         Agreement, Client shall also be entitled to receive copies of the
         object code and source code versions of future MDCM Code developed by
         MDCM. MDCM shall be the exclusive owner of the MDCM Code.

                  (e) RESIDUAL KNOWLEDGE. The parties mutually acknowledge that
         during development of the Openclose Code and the performance of
         services as provided in Section 1(a)(xi), MDCM and its personnel and
         agents have and may become acquainted with certain general ideas,
         concepts, know-how, methods, techniques, processes, and skills
         pertaining to the Openclose Code (the "Residual Knowledge").
         Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and
         regardless of expiration or termination of this Agreement, Client
         hereby grants MDCM a perpetual, worldwide, noncancelable, irrevocable,
         royalty free license to use the Residual Knowledge in conducting its
         business, other than the Openclose Code or Client's Proprietary and
         Confidential Information. Such license includes the right for MDCM to
         use the Residual Knowledge in providing services and/or creating and
         licensing programming, technologies, and other materials for MDCM's
         other clients and for MDCM itself and its subsidiaries and affiliates,
         and Client acknowledges and agrees that it shall not assert against
         MDCM, its personnel, or MDCM's other clients any claim, prohibition, or
         restraint from using such Residual Knowledge. ANY SUCH LICENSE IS
         GRANTED "AS IS" AND "WITH ALL FAULTS." CLIENT HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND
         ALL WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
         OF TITLE. CLIENT SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER IN CONNECTION WITH
         THE USE BY MDCM OF SUCH RESIDUAL KNOWLEDGE AND MDCM SHALL FOREVER
         DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS CLIENT IN THE EVENT OF ANY CLAIM OR
         LOSS INCURRED BY CLIENT ARISING OUT OF USE BY MDCM OR ITS AFFILIATES,
         SUBSIDIARIES, LICENSEES OR ASSIGNEES OF SUCH RESIDUAL KNOWLEDGE.

         3. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall be twenty-five (25) years
from the date hereof, provided that the term shall thereafter automatically
renew from time to time for successive, additional one-year terms unless either
party shall provide the other party with a written notice of termination at
least six (6) months prior to the termination date (including any termination
date as a result of any renewal period).

         4. BILLING. MDCM shall bill the Client, on a monthly basis, a fee
reflecting compensation due for services rendered in the preceding month
calculated as provided for in this Agreement. The bill shall be due and payable
within thirty days of receipt. The Client shall have full access to MDCM's
records to the extent necessary to verify and audit MDCM's billing procedures,
provided that the Client agrees to keep all such information confidential. The
Client shall have the right, at any time, to review and audit the bills, and in
the event that the Client believes the bills are not prepared by MDCM in a
reasonable and good faith manner, the Client may request that the bill be
independently reviewed and adjusted by an independent certified public
accountant reasonably acceptable to the Client and MDCM. To the extent that any
investigation or audit reveals a discrepancy in MDCM's favor in the amount of 5%
or more of amounts paid for the preceding month, MDCM shall bear the cost of
such audit or investigation.

         5. LEASE OF OFFICE SPACE TO THE CLIENT. MDCM recognizes that Client
would receive certain benefits from having a portion of its operations located
at or near MDCM's offices. Therefore, MDCM will provide certain available office
space and office support services to the Client pursuant to the Sublease
Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit C, with such changes as may be
required by the landlord. Until such time as the Sublease Agreement has been
executed and consent of the landlord obtained, the Client will reimburse MDCM
for MDCM's occupancy expense under its prime lease from landlord occupied by
MDCM personnel involved in the provision of services to the Client pursuant to
this Agreement.

         6. SEPARATE IDENTITY OF CLIENT. The Client desires to remain at all
times a separate company. Toward that end, all business records, reports and
files prepared or maintained by MDCM for the Client shall remain the sole and
exclusive property and records of the Client and the Client shall be entitled to
their return at any time upon request. Moreover, all of the Client's funds,
accounts receivable or other property shall at all times be clearly and
distinctly maintained as the Client's separate and distinct property and shall
not be combined or commingled with the property of MDCM. Moreover, MDCM shall
have no authority hereunder to enter into contracts on behalf of, or otherwise
legally bind, the Client. Although MDCM shall make recommendations to the Client
hereunder, all decisions whether to accept or reject the advice of MDCM are up
to the Client's total discretion.

         7. Non-Competition.

                  (a) BY CLIENT. The Client covenants and agrees that it will

                  which competes with MDCM in MDCM's Business (as hereinafter
                  defined) or which is substantially similar thereto (except
                  that Client may engage in mortgage banking to develop and
                  maintain mortgage banking capability for the purpose of
                  obtaining and maintaining approval of and a seller/servicer

                  and maintain a license to utilize any such institution's
                  automated underwriting software);

                  (12) months, or assist any other person or entity in offering
                  employment to a person who is or was employed by MDCM, during

                  subordinates has dealt with during the then immediately
                  preceding twelve (12) months which might adversely affect

         of two years following the termination of this Agreement:

                  which competes with the Client in the Client's Business (as
                  hereinafter defined) or which is substantially similar
                  thereto, except that MDCM may provide Web site development,
                  marketing, hosting and operation services to those Mortgage
                  Brokers (as defined in the agreement between MDCM and

                           that is not principally a mortgage broker and have
                           entered into or shall hereafter enter into a written
                           agreement with MDCM whereby MDCM provides to such

                           as such affiliation and written agreement remains in

                           branches" shall mean written contractual
                           relationships by which MDCM hires a person or entity
                           to manage a loan origination office under a name
                           other than "mortgage.com", the principal purpose of
                           which is to originate mortgage loans and sell them to
                           MDCM.

                  or becomes a Competitor of the Client if the principal purpose

                  Client or their subordinates has dealt with during the then

         termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.

         8. CONFIDENTIALITY. Subject to the License Agreement, the parties
agree, both during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of two years
after termination of this Agreement, but in no event less than ten (10) years
from the Effective Date, to hold each other's Proprietary or Confidential
Information in strict confidence. The parties agree not to make each other's
Proprietary or Confidential Information available in any form to any third party
or to use each other's Proprietary or Confidential Information for any purpose,
other than the implementation of and as specified in this Agreement and other
than use by Client in the Openclose Business. Each party agrees to take all
reasonable steps to ensure that Proprietary or Confidential Information of
either party is not disclosed or distributed by its employees, agents or
consultants in violation of the provisions of this Agreement. Each party's
Proprietary or Confidential Information shall remain the sole and exclusive
property of that party. Each party expressly agrees to include, maintain,
reproduce and perpetuate all notices or markings on all copies of all tangible
media comprising each party's Proprietary or Confidential Information in the
manner in which such notices or markings appear on such tangible media or in the
manner in which either party may reasonably request. The provisions of this

restrictions contained in Section 7 and 8 of this Agreement are necessary to
protect the legitimate continuing interests of Client and MDCM and that any
breach or violation thereof may result in irreparable injury and damage to the
other party. Accordingly, each party hereby agrees that, in the event of such
breach, the other party may be entitled to seek equitable relief as granted by
any appropriate judicial body.

         10. TERMINATION.

                  (a) BY CLIENT. The Client may terminate this Agreement
         immediately upon delivery of written notice to MDCM. In addition, the
         Client, from time to time, may expand or reduce the scope of services
         provided by MDCM. For example, as illustration, Client may determine
         that the number of employees at Client has increased to the level where
         human resource management should now be handled "in-house" rather than
         by MDCM. The parties recognize that this will be a flexible and
         evolving relationship. If MDCM shall incur any expenses in connection
         with and resulting from the Client's expansion, reduction, or
         termination of any specific services or provision of technology
         hereunder, Client shall reimburse MDCM for such costs or expenses
         promptly upon receipt of an itemized account thereof.

                  (b) BY MDCM. MDCM may terminate the agreement upon not less
         than 90 days written notice in the event that the Client has failed to
         pay any outstanding invoice on the date due or within 30 days
         thereafter.

                  (c) TERMINATION OF LEGAL SERVICES. Notwithstanding anything
         herein to the contrary, MDCM's obligations hereunder to provide legal
         services to Client as described in Section 1(a)(iv) hereof shall
         automatically terminate as of the date MDCM ceases to hold, directly or
         indirectly, a majority of the voting power of all classes of
         outstanding voting stock of Client.

         11. CHANGE OF CONTROL. The parties recognize that MDCM currently owns
more than a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Client. It is the
intention of the parties, and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree, that any
increase or decrease in MDCM's ownership of the Client's common stock shall have
no effect on MDCM's obligations hereunder, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein.

         12. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIP. It is acknowledged and agreed
that MDCM's relationship with the Client is at all times hereunder an
independent contractor. The Client shall have no authority over MDCM's internal
business affairs and decisions. MDCM shall have no

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

authority to act on behalf of, or legally bind the Client, and MDCM shall not
hold itself out as having any such authority. This Agreement shall not be
construed as creating a partnership or joint venture.

         13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.

                  (a) MDCM hereby warrants and represents that: MDCM will
         provide the services requested pursuant to this Agreement in a

         any other person for any loss, damage, or expense which may result

         the conduct of its own operations.

         USE THE SOFTWARE OR SERVICES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY ANY OTHER PARTY, EVEN
         IF MDCM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

         14. CLIENT INDEMNITY.

         Client shall indemnify and hold MDCM harmless against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, claims, causes of action, and costs
(including attorneys fees and disbursements) which MDCM may hereafter incur,
suffer, or be required to pay, defend, settle, or satisfy as a result of third
party claims against MDCM based on or arising out of: (i) representations or
warranties made by Client to its Private Label customers that are not
substantially similar to those in EXHIBIT A or have not been approved in writing
by MDCM; or (ii) Client's failure to comply with its obligations under Section
1(a)(viii).

         15. MISCELLANEOUS.

                  (a) FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party shall be in default of this
         Agreement or liable to the other party for any delay or default in
         performance where occasioned by any cause of any kind or extent beyond
         its control, including but not limited to, armed conflict or economic
         dislocation resulting therefrom; embargoes; shortages or labor, raw
         materials, production facilities or transportation; labor difficulties;
         civil disorders of any kind; action of any civil or military
         authorities (including priorities and allocations); fires; floods;
         telecommunications failures; Internet slow-downs; and accidents. The
         dates on which the obligations of a party are to be fulfilled shall be
         extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of any delay
         arising directly or indirectly from:

                           (i) Any of the foregoing causes; or

                           (ii) Inability of that party, as a result of causes
                  beyond its reasonable control, to obtain instruction or
                  information from the other party in time to perform its
                  obligations by such dates.

                  (b) SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of this
         Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and
         valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof is held by a
         court of competent jurisdiction to be prohibited or invalid, such
         prohibition or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of
         this Agreement. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction shall
         determine and hold that the covenants contained herein are invalid or
         unenforceable for any reason, the parties hereby request that such
         court reform the provisions hereof in a manner to cause the covenants
         contained herein to be enforceable as closely as possible to the way in
         which originally written.

                  (c) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number
         of counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed to be
         an original, and all of which shall together constitute but a single
         instrument.

held by them in such Registration as set forth in Section 10.01(e) and Section
10.02(b).

10.      REGISTRATION RIGHTS

         The Investors, MDCM and the permitted transferees of MDCM's Voting
Common Stock, shall have the right to register their Registrable Securities in
accordance with the following provisions:

         10.01. DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.

                  (a) At any time and from time to time commencing on the
earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) the date
which is six months after the Initial Public Offering, upon the written request
of the Holders of at least 30% of the Registrable Securities (the "INITIATING
HOLDERS") that the Company effect the Registration under the Securities Act
(such a written request being hereinafter referred to as a "DEMAND
REGISTRATION") of any of the Registrable Securities, the Company will promptly
give written notice to all other Holders of Registrable Securities that a Demand
Registration has been received. For a period of 20 days following delivery of
such notice, the other Holders of Registrable Securities may request that the
Company also register their Registrable Securities and after the expiration of
such 20 day period, the Company shall notify all Holders of Registrable
Securities of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered.

                                       24

<PAGE>

Thereupon, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the prompt
Registration under the Securities Act, subject to the provisions of this Section
10, of all Registrable Securities which the Holders thereof have requested the
Company to register, and in connection therewith, prepare and file on such
appropriate form as the Company, in its reasonable discretion, shall determine,
a Registration Statement under the Securities Act to effect such Registration.

                  With respect to any Registration Statement filed, or to be
filed, pursuant to this Section 10.01(a) or Section 10.03 below, if the Company
shall furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities a certified resolution of
the Board of Directors stating that in the Board of Directors' good faith
judgment it would (because of the existence of, or in anticipation of, any
acquisition or financing, merger, sale of assets, recapitalization or other
similar corporate activity, or the unavailability for reasons beyond the
Company's control of any required audited financial statements, or any other
event or condition of similar significance to the Company) be materially
disadvantageous (a "DISADVANTAGEOUS CONDITION") to the Company or its
stockholders for such a Registration Statement to be maintained Effective, or to
be filed and become Effective, and setting forth the general reasons for such
judgment, the Company shall be entitled to cause such Registration Statement to
be withdrawn and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement terminated,
or, in the event no Registration Statement has yet been filed, shall be entitled
not to file any such Registration Statement, until such Disadvantageous
Condition no longer exists (notice of which the Company shall promptly deliver
to all Holders of Registrable Securities); PROVIDED that the Company shall be
entitled to withdraw or delay the filing of a Registration Statement in
connection with a Disadvantageous Condition for a period of not more than 90
days and only once during any twelve month period. Upon receipt of any such
notice of a Disadvantageous Condition, such Holders of Registrable Securities
will forthwith discontinue use of the disclosure document contained in such
Registration Statement and, if so directed by the Company, each such Holder will
deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such
Holder's possession, of the disclosure document then covering such Registrable
Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice, and, in the event no
Registration Statement has yet been filed, all drafts of the disclosure document
covering such Registrable Securities. In the event that the Company shall give
any notice of a Disadvantageous Condition, the Company shall at such time as it
in good faith deems appropriate file a new Registration Statement covering the
Registrable Securities that were covered by such withdrawn Registration
Statement, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to file such new
Registration Statement within 90 days of receipt of the resolution by the
Holders of Registrable Securities, and such Registration Statement shall be
maintained Effective for such time as may be necessary so that the period of
effectiveness of such new Registration Statement, when aggregated with the
period during which such initial Registration Statement was Effective, shall be
such time as may be otherwise required by Section 10.01(c).

                  The Holders of at least 66% of the Registrable Securities
requested to be registered may, at any time prior to the Effective Date of the
Registration Statement relating to such Registration, revoke such request,
without liability to any of the other Holders of Registrable Securities, by
providing a written notice to the Company revoking such request.

                  (b) NUMBER OF REGISTRATIONS; EXPENSES. The Company shall not
be obligated to effect more than three Registrations of Registrable Securities
pursuant to requests from the Holders of Registrable Securities under this
Section 10.01 during the term of this Agreement. The Company

                                       25

<PAGE>

shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the three Registrations
which the Holders of Registrable Securities are entitled to request pursuant to
this Section 10.01. However, each Holder of Registrable Securities shall pay all
underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to
the sale or disposition of such Holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 10.01. Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Section
10.01, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities
pursuant to an Effective Registration Statement in connection with a request for
such Registration made in accordance with this Section 10.01 if any previous
Registration Statement became Effective less than 180 days prior to such
request.

                  (c) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT. A Registration requested
pursuant to this Section 10.01 shall not be deemed to have been effected unless
the Registration Statement relating thereto (i) has become Effective under the
Securities Act and all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders thereof
included in such Registration have actually been sold thereunder, and (ii) has
remained Effective for a period of at least 180 days (or such shorter period in
which all Registrable Securities included in such Registration have actually
been sold thereunder); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if any Effective Registration
Statement requested pursuant to this Section 10.01 is discontinued in connection
with a Disadvantageous Condition, such Registration Statement shall not be
included as one of the Registrations which may be requested pursuant to this
Section 10.01; PROVIDED FURTHER, that if after any Registration Statement
requested pursuant to this Section 10.01 becomes Effective (x) such Registration
Statement is subject to any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement
of the Commission or other governmental agency or court solely due to the
actions or omissions to act of the Company or (y) less than 100% of all of the
Registrable Securities included in such Registration have been sold thereunder,
such Registration Statement shall not be included as one of the Registrations
which such Holders of Registrable Securities are entitled to request pursuant to
Section 10.01(b).

                  (d) SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. If any requested Registration
pursuant to this Section 10.01 is in the form of an underwritten offering, the
Company shall have the right to select the investment banker and manager or
co-managers that will administer the offering, subject to the approval of the
Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities in respect of which
Registration has been requested.

                  (e) PRIORITY IN REQUESTED REGISTRATIONS. If a requested
Registration pursuant to this Section 10.01 involves an underwritten offering
and the managing underwriter shall advise the Company that, in its view, the
number of equity securities requested to be included in such Registration
exceeds the largest number of securities which can be sold without having an
adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities
can be sold, the Company will include in such Registration (i) first,
Registrable Securities proposed to be registered by Holders thereof, pro rata
based on the number of securities proposed to be registered by each such Holder
and (ii) second, securities that the Company proposes to issue and sell for its
own account and all other securities proposed to be registered by the holders
thereof, pro rata based on the number of securities proposed to be registered by
each such Person; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if in any such underwritten offering
the Company includes in such Registration Statement less than 100% of the
Registrable Securities requested to be included therein by any Holder thereof,
then such Registration Statement

                                       26

<PAGE>

shall not be included as one of the Registrations which the Holders of
Registrable Securities are entitled to request pursuant to Section 10.01(b).

         10.02. INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION.

                  (a) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
equity securities under the Securities Act (other than a Registration (i)
relating to shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of employee stock
options or in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan of the
Company, (ii) in connection with an acquisition by the Company of another
company, or (iii) pursuant to Section 10.01) in a manner which would permit
Registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the
Securities Act, it shall each such time, subject to the provisions of Section
10.02(b), give prompt written notice to all Holders of record of Registrable
Securities of its intention to do so and of such Holders' rights under this
Section 10.02, at least 20 days prior to the anticipated filing date of the
Registration Statement relating to such Registration. Such notice shall offer
all such Holders the opportunity to include in such Registration Statement such
number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request. Upon the
written request of any such Holder made within 10 days after the receipt of the
Company's notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable
Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder and the intended method of
disposition thereof), the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect
the Registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which
the Company has been so requested to register by the Holders thereof; PROVIDED,
that (x) if such Registration involves an underwritten offering, all Holders of
Registrable Securities requesting to be included in the Company's Registration
must sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the
Company on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company; and (y) if, at
any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities
pursuant to this Section 10.02(a) and prior to the Effective Date of the
Registration Statement filed in connection with such Registration, the Company
shall determine for any reason not to register such securities, the Company
shall give written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities and shall
thereupon be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities
in connection with such Registration (without prejudice, however, to rights of
the Holders of Registrable Securities under Section 10.01). If a Registration
pursuant to this Section 10.02(a) involves an underwritten public offering, any
Holder of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such Registration
may elect, in writing prior to the Effective Date of the Registration Statement
filed in connection with such Registration, not to register such Registrable
Securities in connection with such Registration. No Registration effected under
this Section 10.02 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to effect
Registrations upon request under Section 10.01 or Section 10.03. The Company
shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each Registration of
Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 10.02. However, each
Holder of Registrable Securities shall pay all underwriting discounts and
commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of
such Holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement
effected pursuant to this Section 10.02.

                  (b) PRIORITY IN INCIDENTAL REGISTRATIONS. If a Registration
pursuant to this Section 10.02 involves an underwritten offering and the
managing underwriter advises the Company that, in its good faith view, the
number of equity securities (including all Registrable Securities) which the
Company, the Holders of Registrable Securities and any other persons intend to
include in such Registration exceeds the largest number of securities which can
be sold without having an

                                       27

<PAGE>

adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such Registrable
Securities can be sold, the Company will include in such Registration (i) first,
securities that the Company proposes to issue and sell for its own account, (ii)
second, Registrable Securities proposed to be registered by the Holders thereof,
pro rata based on the number of securities proposed to be registered by each
such Person and (iii) third, all other securities proposed to be registered by
the holders thereof, pro rata based on the number of securities proposed to be
registered by each such Person.

         10.03. REGISTRATIONS ON FORM S-3. In addition to the rights provided
the Holders of Registrable Securities in Section 10.01 and Section 10.02, if the
registration of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act can be effected
on Form S-3 (or any similar form promulgated by the Commission), then upon the
written request of the Initiating Holders, the Company will so notify each
Holder of Registrable Securities, including each Holder who has a right to
acquire Registrable Securities, and then will, as expeditiously as possible, use
its reasonable best efforts to effect qualification and registration under the
Securities Act on Form S-3 of all or such portion of the Registrable Securities
as the Holder or Holders shall specify; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Company shall not
be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 10.03 unless the
market value of the Registrable Securities to be sold in any such Registration
shall be estimated to be at least $5,000,000 at the time of filing such
Registration Statement; and FURTHER PROVIDED that the Company shall not be
required to effect more than one Registration under this Section 10.03 during
any twelve (12) month period. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with each Registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant
to this Section 10.03. However, each Holder of Registrable Securities shall pay
all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating
to the sale or disposition of such Holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to a
Registration Statement effected pursuant to this Section 10.03.

         10.04. HOLDBACK AGREEMENTS.

                  (a) If any Registration of Registrable Securities shall be in
connection with an underwritten public offering, each Holder of Registrable
Securities agrees not to effect any sale or distribution, including any private
placement or any sale pursuant to Rule 144 or any successor provision, under the
Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities, and not to effect any such sale
or distribution of any other equity security of the Company or of any security
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the
Company (in each case, other than as part of such underwritten public offering)
during the seven days prior to, and during the 90 day period which begins on the
Effective Date of such Registration Statement (except as part of such
Registration) provided that (i) each Holder of Registrable Securities has
received written notice of such Registration at least two Business Days prior to
the anticipated beginning of the seven day period referred to above; (ii) all
directors and officers of the Company and 1% stockholders agree to the same
lockup; (iii) such agreement shall provide that any discretionary waiver or
termination of the restrictions of such agreements by the Company or
representatives of the underwriters shall apply to all persons subject to such
agreements pro rata based on the number of shares subject to such agreements;
(iv) such agreement shall apply only in connection with the Initial Public
Offering; and (v) such agreement shall not apply to shares of Common Stock
purchased by a Holder in or after the Initial Public Offering.

                                       28

<PAGE>

                  (b) If any Registration of Registrable Securities shall be in
connection with an underwritten public offering, the Company agrees (i) not to
effect any sale or distribution of any of its equity securities or of any
security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security
of the Company (other than any such sale or distribution of such securities in
connection with any merger or consolidation by the Company or any Affiliate or
the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company of the capital
stock or substantially all the assets of any other Person or in connection with
an employee stock ownership or other benefit plan) during the seven days prior
to, and during the 90 day period which begins on, the Effective Date of such
Registration Statement (except as part of such Registration) and (ii) that any
agreement entered into after the date hereof pursuant to which the Company
issues or agrees to issue any privately placed equity securities shall contain a
provision under which the Holders of such securities agree not to effect any
sale or distribution of any such securities during the period referred to in the
foregoing clause (i), including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, or any successor
provision, under the Securities Act (except as part of such Registration, if
permitted).

         10.05. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In connection with any offering of
Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Section 10, the Company
shall:

                  (a) Prepare and file with the Commission within 90 days after
receipt of a request for Registration, a Registration Statement on any form for
which the Company then qualifies and which counsel for the Company shall deem
appropriate, and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof, and
use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become
and remain Effective as provided herein, PROVIDED that before filing with the
Commission a Registration Statement or disclosure document constituting part of
a Registration Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company
will (x) furnish to one counsel selected by the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed for said counsel's review and comment and (y)
notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the Commission and take all
reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove
it if entered.

                  (b) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such Registration Statement and any disclosure document
constituting part of such Registration Statement used in connection therewith as
may be necessary to keep Effective such Registration Statement for a period of
not less than nine months (or one year in the case of a Registration pursuant to
Section 10.03) or such shorter period which will terminate when all Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold (but not before
the expiration of the 90 day period, if applicable, referred to in Section 4(3)
of the Securities Act and Rule 174 under the Securities Act, or any successor
thereto, if applicable), and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration
Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement.

                  (c) Furnish to each Holder and each underwriter, if any, of
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement such number of
copies of such Registration Statement, each

                                       29

<PAGE>

amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto),
and the disclosure document included in such Registration Statement (including
each preliminary disclosure document), in conformity with the requirements of
the Securities Act, and such other documents as any Holder of Registrable
Securities may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the
Registrable Securities owned by such Holder.

                  (d) Use its best efforts to register or qualify such
Registrable Securities under such other state securities or "blue sky" laws of
such jurisdictions as any Holder, and underwriter, if any, of Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement reasonably requests and do any
and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to
enable such Holder and each underwriter, if any, to consummate the disposition
in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder;
PROVIDED that the Company will not be required to (x) qualify generally to do
business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify
but for this Section 10.05(d), (y) subject itself to taxation in any such
jurisdiction or (z) consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction.

                  (e) Use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities
covered by such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the
business and operations of the Company to enable the Holder or Holders thereof
to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

                  (f) Immediately notify each Holder of such Registrable
Securities at any time when a disclosure document relating thereto is required
to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event which
comes to the Company's attention if as a result of such event the disclosure
document included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly
prepare and furnish to such Holder a supplement or amendment to such disclosure
document so that, as thereafter delivered to the offerees of such Registrable
Securities, such disclosure document will not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

                  (g) Use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such
Registrable Securities to be listed on a national securities exchange (including
NASDAQ) and on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by
the Company may then be listed, and enter into such customary agreements
including a listing application and indemnification agreement in customary form,
and to provide a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities
covered by such Registration Statement no later than the Effective Date of such
Registration Statement.

                  (h) Enter into such customary agreements (including an
underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other actions as the
Holders of at least 30% of the Registrable Securities being covered by such
Registration Statement or the underwriters retained by such Holders, if any,
reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities, including customary representations, warranties,
indemnities and agreements.

                                       30

<PAGE>

                  (i) Make available for inspection by any Holder of Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement, any underwriter participating
in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney,
accountant or other agent retained by any such Holder or underwriter
(collectively, the "INSPECTORS"), all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, "RECORDS"), if
any, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due
diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's and its Affiliates' officers,
directors and employees to supply all information and respond to all inquiries
reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration
Statement.

                  (j) Use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a "cold comfort"
letter from the Company's independent public accountants in customary form and
covering such matters of the type customarily covered by "cold comfort" letters
as the Holders of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities being
sold reasonably request.

                  (k) Otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to the
Holders of Registrable Securities, as soon as reasonably practicable, an
earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve months, beginning with
the first month after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, which
earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

                  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the
Company to take any action with respect to securities of a Holder of Registrable
Securities that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information
regarding the securities held by such Holder and the intended method of
disposition thereof as the Company shall reasonably request and as shall be
required in connection with the action taken by the Company.

                  Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind
described in Section 10.05(f), such Holder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of Registrable Securities until such Holder's receipt of the copies
of the supplemented or amended disclosure document contemplated by Section
10.05(f) and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the
Company (at the Company's expense) all copies (including, without limitation,
any and all drafts), other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder's
possession, of the disclosure document covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall
give any such notice, the period mentioned in Section 10.05(b) shall be extended
by the greater of (x) three months or (y) the number of days during the period
from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section
10.05(f) to and including the date when each Holder of Registrable Securities
covered by such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the
supplemented or amended disclosure document contemplated by Section 10.05(f).

         10.06. INDEMNIFICATION.

                  (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. In the event of any
Registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act pursuant
to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless, to the full
extent permitted by law, each of the Holders of any Registrable Securities
covered by such Registration Statement, their respective directors and officers,

                                       31

<PAGE>

general partners, limited partners and managing directors, each other person who
participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and
each other person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common
control with any such Holder or any such underwriter within the meaning of the
Securities Act (and directors, officers, controlling persons, partners and
managing directors of any of the foregoing), against any and all losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, and expenses (including any amounts
paid in any settlement effected with the Company's consent, which consent will
not be unreasonably withheld) to which such Holder, any such director, officer,
general or limited partner, managing director, any such underwriter or
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, state securities
or "blue sky" laws, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) or
expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained, on the Effective Date thereof,
in any Registration Statement under which such securities were registered under
the Securities Act, any preliminary, final or summary disclosure document
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission or
alleged omission to state in such Registration Statement a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of any
federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company and
relating to action required of or inaction by the Company in connection with any
such Registration. The Company shall reimburse each such Holder and each such
director, officer, general partner, limited partner, managing director or
underwriter and controlling person for any legal or any other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending such
loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding, PROVIDED, that the Company shall
not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of
or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in such Registration Statement or amendment or supplement
thereto or in any such preliminary, final or summary disclosure document in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company through an instrument duly executed by such Holder in its capacity as a
Holder of Registrable Securities in the Company or any such director, officer,
general or limited partner, managing director or underwriter specifically
stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof; and, PROVIDED FURTHER,
that the Company shall not be liable to any Holder of Registrable Securities,
any person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of
Registrable Securities, if any, or any other person, if any, who controls such
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, pursuant to this Section
with respect to any preliminary disclosure document or the final disclosure
document or the final disclosure document as amended or supplemented as the case
may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such
underwriter or controlling person results from the fact that such underwriter
sold Registrable Securities to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at
or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the final
disclosure document or of the final disclosure document as then amended or
supplemented, whichever is most recent, if the Company has previously furnished
copies thereof to such underwriter and such final disclosure document, as then
amended or supplemented, had corrected any such misstatement or omission. The
indemnity provided for herein shall remain in full force and effect regardless
of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any such director,
officer, general partner, limited partner, managing director, underwriter or
controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such
Holder.

                                       32

<PAGE>

                  (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES
AND UNDERWRITERS. The Company may require, as a condition to including any
Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with
the provisions hereof, that the Company shall have received an undertaking
reasonably satisfactory to it from the Holders of such Registrable Securities or
any underwriter, to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the
same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) above) the Company and its directors,
officers, controlling persons and all other prospective sellers and their
respective directors, officers, general and limited partners, managing
directors, and their respective controlling persons with respect to any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from
such Registration Statement, any preliminary, final or summary disclosure
document contained therein, or any amendment or supplement, if such untrue
statement or untrue alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company or its representatives through an instrument duly executed by or on
behalf of such Holder or underwriter specifically stating that it is for use in
the preparation of such Registration Statement, preliminary, final or summary
disclosure document or amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated by
reference into any of the foregoing. Such indemnity shall remain in full force
and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company
or any of the Holders of Registrable Securities, underwriters or any of their
respective directors, officers, general or limited partners, managing directors
or controlling persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such
Holder, provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable in the aggregate
for any amounts exceeding the product of the sale price per Registrable Security
and the number of Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to such
Registration Statement or disclosure document by such Holder.

                  (c) NOTICES OF CLAIMS, ETC. Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party hereunder of written notice of the commencement of any action
or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made
pursuant to this Section 10.06, such indemnified party will, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, promptly give
written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such action,
PROVIDED that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided
herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the
preceding subsections of this Section, except to the extent that the
indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In
case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such
indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such
indemnified and indemnifying parties exists in respect of such claim, the
indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, jointly with any
other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, to
the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or
other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the
defense thereof, unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a
conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties arises in
respect of such claim after the assumption of the defense thereof, and the
indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made
without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No
indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by
the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all
liability in respect to such

                                       33

<PAGE>

claim or litigation. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not
to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of more than one counsel in any single jurisdiction for all parties
indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the
reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist
between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with
respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated
to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels as may be
reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
and without limiting any of the rights set forth above, in any event any party
will have the right to retain, at its own expense, counsel with respect to the
defense of a claim.

                  (d) OTHER INDEMNIFICATION. Indemnification similar to that
specified in the preceding subsections of this Section 10.06 (with appropriate
modifications) shall be given by the Company and each Holder of Registrable
Securities with respect to any required Registration or other qualification of
securities under any federal or state law or regulation or governmental
authority other than the Securities Act.

                  (e) CONTRIBUTION. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in
this Section is for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in
accordance with its terms, the Company, the Holders of Registrable Securities
and the underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities,
claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity
agreement incurred by the Company, the Holders of Registrable Securities and the
underwriters, in such proportions that the underwriters are responsible for that
portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing
in the disclosure document bears to the initial public offering price appearing
therein and the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities are
responsible for the balance; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. As between the Company and the
Holders of Registrable Securities, such parties shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature
contemplated by such indemnity agreement in such proportion as shall be
appropriate to reflect (x) the relative benefits received by the Company, on the
one hand, and the Holders of the Registrable Securities included in the offering
on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities and any other
securities included in such offering, and (y) the relative fault of the Company,
on the one hand, and the Holders of the Registrable Securities included in the
offering, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions which
resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, or action in respect
thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders of the
Registrable Securities on the other, with respect to such offering shall be
deemed to be in the same proportion as the sum of the total purchase price paid
to the Company in respect of the Registrable Securities plus the total net
proceeds from the offering of any other securities included in such offering
(before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the amount by which
the total net proceeds from the offering of Registrable Securities (before
deducting expenses) received by the Holders of the Registrable Securities with
respect to such offering exceeds the purchase price paid to the Company in
respect of the Registrable Securities, and in each case the net proceeds
received from such offering shall be determined as set forth in the disclosure
document. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things,

                                       34

<PAGE>

whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or the Holders of the Registrable Securities, the intent of the parties
and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct
or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders of the
Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section were to be determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to herein. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities
agree that any contribution required to be made by any Holder pursuant to this
Section 10.06(e) shall not exceed the net proceeds from the offering of
Registrable Securities (before deducting expenses) received by such Holder with
respect to such offering. For purposes of this Section, each Person, if any, who
controls a Holder of Registrable Securities or an underwriter within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution
as such Holder or underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of
the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

         10.07. RULE 144. At all times after a public offering of any of the
Company's securities, the Company agrees that it will file in a timely manner
all reports required to be filed by it pursuant to the Exchange Act, and, if at
any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will make
available to the public, to the extent required to permit the sale of Shares by
any Holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, current information about itself and its activities as contemplated by Rule
144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may deregister any class of its
equity securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or suspend its duty to
file reports with respect to any class of its securities pursuant to Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act if it is then permitted to do so pursuant to the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

11.      RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

         11.01. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Before the Company shall issue, sell or
exchange, agree or obligate itself to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set
aside for issuance, sale or exchange, any (a) shares of Common Stock, (b) any
other equity security of the Company, including without limitation, shares of
Preferred Stock, (c) any convertible debt security of the Company including
without limitation, any debt security which by its terms is convertible into or
exchangeable for any equity security of the Company, (d) any security of the
Company that is a combination of debt and equity, or (e) any option, warrant or
other right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any such equity
security or any such debt security of the Company, the Company shall, in each
case, first offer to sell such securities (the "OFFERED SECURITIES") to those
Investors then holding capital stock of the Company and MDCM (the "OFFEREES") as
follows: the Company shall offer to sell to each Offeree (x) an amount of the
Offered Securities (the "BASIC AMOUNT") sufficient to allow each Offeree to
maintain a proportional interest in the Company equal to a fraction, (i) the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock (including for the
purposes of such calculation the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or upon conversion or exercise of
other securities or options of the Company) then held by such Offeree and (ii)
the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and

                                       35

<PAGE>

outstanding and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Series A Preferred Stock or upon the conversion or exercise of other
securities or options of the Company, determined immediately prior to the issue,
sale or exchange of the Offered Securities, and (y) such additional portion of
the Offered Securities as such Offeree shall indicate it will purchase should
the other Offerees subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the
"UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"), at a price and on such other terms as applicable to
such issuance, sale or exchange of Offered Securities. Such terms and price, and
the Offerees' respective Basic Amounts, shall be specified by the Company in
writing delivered to the Offerees (the "OFFER"), which Offer by its terms shall
remain open and irrevocable for a period of 30 days from receipt of the Offer.

         11.02. NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE. Notice of each Offeree's intention to
accept, in whole or in part, any Offer made pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be
evidenced by a writing signed by such Offeree and delivered to the Company prior
to the end of the 30-day period of such offer, setting forth such of the
Offeree's Basic Amount as such Offeree elects to purchase and, if such Offeree
shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, such Undersubscription Amount
as such Offeree shall elect to purchase (the "NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE"). If the
Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Offerees are less than the total Offered
Securities, then each Offeree who has set forth Undersubscription Amounts in its
Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic
Amounts subscribed for, all Undersubscription Amounts it has subscribed for;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that should the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for
exceed the difference between the Offered Securities and the Basic Amounts
subscribed for (the "AVAILABLE UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"), each Offeree who has
subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall purchase only that portion of
the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Undersubscription Amount
subscribed for by such Offeree bears to the total Undersubscription Amounts
subscribed for by all Offerees, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to
the extent it reasonably deems necessary.

         11.03. CONDITIONS TO ACCEPTANCES AND PURCHASE.

                  (a) PERMITTED SALES OF REFUSED SECURITIES. In the event that
Notices of Acceptance are not given by the Offerees in respect of all the
Offered Securities, the Company shall have 90 days from the expiration of the
30-day period set forth in Section 11.01 to sell all or any part of such Offered
Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Offerees
(the "REFUSED SECURITIES") to any Person or Persons, but only for cash and
otherwise in all respects upon terms and conditions, including, without
limitation, unit price and interest rates, which are no more favorable, in the
aggregate, to such other Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than
those set forth in the Offer.

                  (b) REDUCTION IN AMOUNT OF OFFERED SECURITIES. In the event
the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Offered Securities (any such
sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 11.03(a) above),
then each Offeree shall have the right, but not the obligation, to reduce the
number of shares or other units of the Offered Securities specified in its
respective Notice of Acceptance to an amount which shall be not less than the
amount of the Offered Securities which such Offeree elected to purchase pursuant
to Section 11.02 multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be
the amount of Offered Securities which the Company actually proposes to sell,
and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the amount of all Offered Securities.
In the event that any Offeree so elects to reduce the number or amount of
Offered Securities specified in its

                                       36

<PAGE>

respective Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not sell or otherwise dispose
of more than the reduced amount of the Offered Securities until such securities
have again been offered to the Offerees in accordance with Section 11.01.

                  (c) CLOSING. Upon the closing, which shall include full
payment to the Company, of the sale to such other Person or Persons of all or
less than all the Refused Securities, the Offerees shall purchase from the
Company, and the Company shall sell to the Offerees, the number of Offered
Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to
Section 11.03(b) if the Offerees have so elected, upon the terms and conditions
specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Offerees of any Offered Securities
is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the
Company and the Offerees of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered
Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Offerees and
their respective counsel.

         11.04. FURTHER SALE. In each case, any Offered Securities not purchased
by the Offerees or other Person or Persons in accordance with Section 11.03 may
not be sold or otherwise issued until they are again offered to the Offerees
under the procedures specified in Sections 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03.

         11.05. OFFER PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENT. The rights of each Offeree
under this Section 11 shall not be afforded to such Offeree with respect to any
Offer occurring subsequent to any Offer in which such Offeree has failed to
purchase its Basic Amount so long as such Offeree shall have been afforded the
right to participate in such prior Offer to the extent of its Basic Amount and
shall have not waived its right to participate at the request of the Company.

         11.06. TERMINATION AND WAIVER OF RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. The rights of
the Offerees under this Section 11 shall terminate immediately prior to the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement with respect to a Qualified Public
Offering, but expressly conditioned on the consummation of a Qualified Public
Offering.

         11.07. EXCEPTION. The rights of the Offerees under this Section 11
shall not apply to the following: (a) Common Stock issued as a stock dividend to
holders of Common Stock or upon any subdivision or combination of shares of
Common Stock; (b) Series A Preferred Stock issued upon any subdivision or
combination of shares of Series A Preferred Stock; (c) 1,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, or options exercisable therefor, issued or to be issued under the
Stock Option Plan and any additional shares required to be issued thereunder to
adjust for any stock split, stock dividend or combination of Common Stock; (d)
shares of Voting Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock and (e) shares of Voting Common Stock issued upon conversion of the
Nonvoting Common Stock .

The Company and each Investor severally but not jointly agrees to indemnify and
save harmless MDCM and its directors, officers, affiliates, successors and
assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs,
damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees,
charges and disbursements) incurred by MDCM as a result of any inaccuracy in or
breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Investors
herein or by the Company herein or in any of the Related Agreements. MDCM shall
have no indemnification obligation hereunder to the extent the claim, liability,
loss or damages arises from (i) specifications provided by the Company for
modifications to the Openclose Code; (ii) derivative works created by the
Company based on the Openclose Code, PROVIDED, that the Openclose Code itself
would not give rise to such a claim, (iii) use of the Openclose Code in
combination with non-MDCM approved third party products, including hardware and
software, PROVIDED that the Openclose Code itself would not give rise to such a
claim, (iv) modifications of the Openclose Code by a party other than MDCM,
PROVIDED, that the Openclose Code itself would not give rise to such a claim,
and (v) failure of the Company to implement any improvement or updates to the
Openclose Code provided by MDCM, if the infringement claim would have been
avoided by the use of the improvement or updates.

                  (b) PROPRIETARY RIGHTS INDEMNIFICATION. MDCM agrees to
indemnify and save harmless the Company and the Investors and their respective
directors, officers, affiliates, successors and assigns from and against any and
all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements)
incurred by the Company or the Investors as a result of the patent infringement
claims described in SCHEDULE 3.07(v).

         13.02. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE. Any party entitled to indemnification
under this Section 13 (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") will give written notice to the
indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification
promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim
for indemnification; PROVIDED THAT the failure of any party entitled to
indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 13 except to the
extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to
give notice. In any action, proceeding or claim which is brought against an
indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the
reasonable judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it
and the indemnifying party exists in respect of such action, proceeding or
claim, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an
indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification
hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification
notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or
compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or
discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the
indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or
pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party
elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim,
proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising out of
the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding
shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party
shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any
negotiation or defense of any such action, proceeding or claim by the

                                       46

<PAGE>

indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information
reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action,
proceeding or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party
fully apprized at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend
any such action, proceeding or claim, then the indemnified party shall be
entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole
cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement
of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold,
delay or condition its consent. Anything in this Section 13 to the contrary
notwithstanding, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified
party's prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to
entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on
the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term
thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party, a
release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification
required by this Section 13 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount
thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred. The indemnity
agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or
similar right of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others,
and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the
law.

14.      SECURITY INTEREST

         MDCM hereby assigns and grants to the Company a security interest in,
and mortgage on, all right, title and interest of MDCM in and to the Openclose
Code and all renewals and extensions thereof, and all modifications,
improvements and derivative works based thereon, to secure the due and punctual
performance of its obligations hereunder.

15.      MISCELLANEOUS

         15.01. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No failure or delay on the part
of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder.
The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.

         15.02. AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. Any provision in the Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding, and except as hereinafter provided, changes in,
termination or amendments of or additions to this Agreement or any Related
Agreement may be made, and compliance with any covenant or provision set forth
herein may be omitted or waived, if the Company (a) shall obtain consent thereto
in writing from the Holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding
Preferred Shares and Common Shares, voting separately, and (b) shall deliver
copies of such consent in writing to any Holders who did not execute such
consent; PROVIDED, THAT no consents shall be effective to reduce the percentage
in interest of the Shares the consent of the Holders of which is required under
this Section 15.02. Any waiver or consent may be given subject to satisfaction
of conditions stated therein and any waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any
such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in
writing signed by the party granting such waiver but such waiver or failure to
