EXHIBIT 10.12

                         CORPORATE COMBINATION AGREEMENT

         This Corporate Combination Agreement (the "Agreement") effective
October 28th, 1999, is by and between JR Consulting, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("JRCI"), having its principal offices at 180 Varick Street, 13th Floor, New
York, New York 10014, Providential Securities, Inc., a California corporation
("PROVIDENTIAL"), and the holders of 1,000,000 or more shares of PROVIDENTIAL
common stock as of October 25, 1999 (the "Majority Shareholders"), all of which
are listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement.

                                    RECITALS:

         A. JRCI desires to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of Providential and the Majority Shareholders of PROVIDENTIAL desire to
exchange all of their shares of PROVIDENTIAL capital stock for shares of JRCI
authorized but unissued shares of stock as hereinafter provided.

         B. It is the intention of the parties hereto that: (i) JRCI shall
acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of PROVIDENTIAL in
exchange solely for the number of shares of JRCI's authorized but unissued
shares of common stock, par value $.001 ("Common Stock"), set forth below (the
"Exchange"); and (ii) and the Exchange shall qualify as a transaction in
securities exempt from registration or qualification under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and under the applicable securities laws of each state or
jurisdiction where all of the shareholders of PROVIDENTIAL (the "Shareholders")
reside.

         C. The board of directors of JRCI deems it to be in the best interest
of JRCI and its shareholders to acquire all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of PROVIDENTIAL.

         D. The board of directors of PROVIDENTIAL and the Majority Shareholders
deem it to be in the best interest of the Shareholders to exchange all of the
capital stock of PROVIDENTIAL for shares of JRCI, as hereinafter provided.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

SECTION 1.  EXCHANGE OF SHARES

         1.1 EXCHANGE OF SHARES. JRCI and the Majority Shareholders hereby agree
that the Shareholders shall, on the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined),
exchange all of the issued and outstanding shares of PROVIDENTIAL for 30,000,000
shares of JRCI (the "JRCI Shares"), which number of JRCI Shares assumes the
effectuation of a 2-for-1 reverse stock split as described herein. The JRCI
SHARES will be restricted against resale pursuant to the provisions of Federal
and state securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain

                                       1
<PAGE>

minority shareholders of PROVIDENTIAL may, for whatever reason, not tender their
shares for exchange. Any shares not tendered will remain issued and outstanding
as to PROVIDENTIAL, which will in turn become a subsidiary of JRCI. The
PROVIDENTIAL stock to be tendered (20,000,000 shares) will represent all of the
issued and outstanding stock of PROVIDENTIAL, plus any shares subscribed for or
committed by virtue of a private placement to take place on October 27, 1999,
and any shares reserved for issuance to the holders of preferred shares
(cumulatively, the "Providential Shares"). The PROVIDENTIAL Shares owned by each
Shareholder and the number of JRCI Shares which each will receive in the
Exchange are set forth in Exhibit A hereto. To the extent any holders of
PROVIDENTIAL shares do not tender their PROVIDENTIAL shares for exchange, the
number of JRCI Shares to be issued shall be reduced.

         1.2 DELIVERY OF SHARES. On the Closing Date, the Shareholders wishing
to exchange PROVIDENTIAL Shares for JRCI Shares (the "Exchanging Shareholders")
will deliver to JRCI the certificates representing the Providential Shares, duly
endorsed (or with executed stock powers) so as to make JRCI the sole owner
thereof. Within 5 business days of the Closing Date, JRCI will deliver
certificates representing the JRCI Shares to the exchanging Shareholders.

         1.3 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The JRCI Shares have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not
be resold unless the resale thereof is registered under the Securities Act or an
exemption from such registration is available. Each certificate representing the
JRCI Shares will have a legend thereon in substantially the following form:

         THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THE CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"). THE SHARES
         HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN
         THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE RESALE OF
         THE SHARES UNDER THE ACT UNLESS IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY
         TO THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE ACT.

         1.4 REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND AGREEMENTS. The JRCI Shares being issued to
the Shareholders will carry "piggyback" registration rights, such that if any
registration of JRCI stock occurs during the first year after Closing, then 20%
of the JRCI Shares will be registered. If no such registration is filed during
the first year, then 40% of the total number of JRCI Shares still held by
PROVIDENTIAL Shareholders will be registered (or become unrestricted) during the
ensuing year, solely for the benefit of the former PROVIDENTIAL Shareholders.
During the second subsequent year, 60% of the unregistered, or restricted, JRCI
Shares of the Shareholders will be registered. In any year in which a
registration statement is filed, PROVIDENTIAL Shareholders will have a
percentage of their shares registered that is equal or greater than the
registration of any other then-existing shareholders of JRCI. The number of
shares to be registered in any such registration statement shall be allocated
pro rata among the Shareholders. Thus, if in the first year, 20%

                                       2
<PAGE>

of the JRCI Shares are to be registered, then each Shareholder shall be entitled
to include in the registration statement 20% of the JRCI Shares owned by that
Shareholder. If any of the registrations are not timely accomplished, then the
PROVIDENTIAL Shareholders may cause the registration to occur at JRCI expense.

SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PROVIDENTIAL AND THE
MAJORITY SHAREHOLDERS

         PROVIDENTIAL and the Majority Shareholders, jointly and not severally,
hereby represent and warrant as follows:

         2.1 ORGANIZATION AND GOOD STANDING. PROVIDENTIAL is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
California. PROVIDENTIAL has the corporate power and authority to carry on its
business as presently conducted. PROVIDENTIAL is qualified to do business in all
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse
effect on its business.

         2.2 CORPORATE AUTHORITY. PROVIDENTIAL has the corporate power to enter
into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transaction contemplated
hereby have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors and a majority of the
Shareholders of PROVIDENTIAL. The execution and performance of this Agreement
will not constitute a material breach of any agreement, indenture, mortgage,
license or other instrument or document to which PROVIDENTIAL is a party and
will not violate any judgment, decree, order, writ, rule, statute, or regulation
applicable to PROVIDENTIAL or its properties. The execution and performance of
this Agreement will not violate or conflict with any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of PROVIDENTIAL.

         2.3 OWNERSHIP OF SHARES. The Shareholders described on Exhibit A are
the owners of record and beneficially of all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of PROVIDENTIAL. Each Majority Shareholder represents
and warrants that he, she or it owns such shares free and clear of all rights,
claims, liens and encumbrances, and the shares have not been sold, pledged,
assigned or otherwise transferred except pursuant to this Agreement.

         2.4 RECEIPT OF CORPORATE INFORMATION; INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION;
ACCESS. All requested publicly-available documents, records and books pertaining
to JRCI and the JRCI Shares have been delivered to the Shareholder and/or its
advisors. All of the Shareholder's questions and requests for information have
been answered to the Shareholder's satisfaction. Shareholder acknowledges that
Shareholder, in making the decision to exchange the Providential Shares for JRCI
Shares, has relied upon independent investigations made by it and its
representatives, if any, and Shareholder and such representatives, if any, have,
prior to the Closing Date, been given access to and the opportunity to examine
all material

                                       3
<PAGE>

contracts and documents relating to this offering and an opportunity to ask
questions of, and to receive information from, JRCI or any person acting on its
behalf concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Shareholder and
its advisors, if any, have been furnished with access to all publicly available
materials relating to the business, finances and operation of JRCI and materials
relating to the offer and sale of the JRCI Shares which have been requested.
Shareholder and its advisors, if any, have received complete and satisfactory
answers to any such inquiries.

         2.5 RISKS. The Shareholder acknowledges and understands that the
purchase of the JRCI Shares involves a high degree of risk and is suitable only
for persons of adequate financial means who have no need for liquidity in this
investment in that (i) the Shareholder may not be able to liquidate the
investment in the event of an emergency; (ii) transferability is extremely
limited; and (iii) in the event of a disposition, the Shareholder could sustain
a complete loss of its entire investment. The Shareholder is sufficiently
experienced in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of an investment in JRCI; has evaluated such merits and risks,
including risks particular to the Shareholder's situation; and the Shareholder
has determined that this investment is suitable for the Shareholder. The
Shareholder has adequate financial resources and can bear a complete loss of the
Shareholder's investment.

         2.6 INVESTMENT INTENT. The Shareholder hereby represents that the JRCI
Shares are being acquired for the Shareholder's own account with no intention of
distributing such securities to others. The Shareholder has no contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or
otherwise distribute to any person or to have any person sell, transfer or
otherwise distribute the Shares for the Shareholder. The Shareholder is
presently not engaged, nor does the Shareholder plan to engage within the
presently foreseeable future, in any discussion with any person regarding such a
sale, transfer or other distribution of the Shares or any interest therein.

         2.7 COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. The Shareholder
understands that the JRCI Shares have not been registered under the Securities
Act. The Shareholder understands that the JRCI Shares must be held indefinitely
unless the sale or other transfer thereof is subsequently registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Moreover,
the Shareholder understands that its right to transfer the JRCI Shares will be
subject to certain restrictions, which include restrictions against transfer
under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. In addition to
such restrictions, the Shareholder realizes that it may not be able to sell or
dispose of the JRCI Shares as there may be no public or other market for them.
The Shareholder understands that certificates evidencing the Shares shall bear a
legend substantially as follows:

         THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR
         ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAW.

with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder or the
consummation of the transactions described herein.

         2.9 NO GENERAL SOLICITATION. Shareholder is not purchasing the JRCI

are not consummated, JRCI, PROVIDENTIAL and the Shareholders agree to keep

obligation shall not apply to information which:

                           (i) at the time of the disclosure was public
                  knowledge;

                           (ii) after the time of disclosure becomes public
                  knowledge (except due to the action of the receiving party);
                  or

                           (iii) the receiving party had within its possession
                  at the time of disclosure; or

                           (iv) is ordered disclosed by a Court of proper
                  jurisdiction.

SECTION 6.  SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         Notwithstanding any right of either party to investigate the affairs of
the other party and its Shareholders, each party has the right to rely fully
upon representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other party
and its Shareholders contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered to
one by the other or any of their representatives, in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. All such representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements shall survive the execution and delivery
hereof and the closing hereunder for one year following the Closing.

SECTION 7.  INDEMNIFICATION

         For a period of three (3) years from the Closing, PROVIDENTIAL'S
Majority Shareholders jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless
JRCI its officers, directors and principal shareholders, and JRCI agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the PROVIDENTIAL Shareholders, at all times after
the date of this Agreement against and in respect of any liability, damage, or
deficiency, all actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, judgments,
costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incident to any of the foregoing,
resulting from any material misrepresentation made by any indemnifying party to
an indemnified party, an indemnifying party's breach of a covenant or warranty
or an indemnifying party's nonfulfillment of any agreement hereunder, or from
any material misrepresentation or omission from any certificate furnished or to
be furnished hereunder.

         If the indemnified party receives written notice of the commencement of
any legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to which the indemnifying
party is or may be obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this
Section, the indemnified party shall, within 30 days of the receipt of such
written notice, give the indemnifying party written

                                       18
<PAGE>

notice thereof (a "Claim Notice"). Failure to give such Claim Notice within such
30 day period shall not constitute a waiver by the indemnified party or its
rights to indemnity hereunder with respect to such action, suit or proceeding
unless the defense thereof is prejudiced thereby. Upon receipt by the
indemnifying party of a Claim Notice from the indemnified party with respect to
any claim for indemnification which is based upon a claim made by a third party
("Third Party Claim"), the indemnifying party may assume the defense of the
Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing, as described below. The
indemnified party shall cooperate in the defense of the Third Party Claim and
shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend all such
conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be
reasonably required in connection therewith. The indemnified party shall have
the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified party unless
the indemnifying party shall not have with reasonable promptness employed
counsel to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, in which event such fees
and expenses shall be borne solely by the indemnifying party. The indemnifying
party shall not satisfy or settle any Third Party Claim for which
indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be delayed or
which shall not be required if the indemnified party is granted a release in
connection therewith. If the indemnifying party shall fail with reasonable
promptness to defend such Third Party Claim, the indemnified party may defend,
satisfy or settle the Third Party Claim at the expense of the indemnifying party
and the indemnifying party shall pay to the indemnified party the amount of such
Loss within ten days after written demand thereof. The indemnification
provisions hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

                                   TERM SHEET

     Set  forth  below  are  the  principle  terms and conditions upon which TPR
Group,  Inc.,  a  Delaware corporation ("TPRG"), proposes to provide capital and
other  resources  to  InterActive,  Inc.,  a  South  Dakota  corporation  (the
"Company"),  in  connection  with the contemplated reorganization of the Company
through  a  voluntary  compromise  with  creditors  course  of  action  (the
"Reorganization"):

     1.     Subject to the fulfillment of each of the conditions set forth below
to  the satisfaction of TPRG, in its sole discretion, TPRG, perhaps with several
other  individuals and entities, would purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares
of  a  new  series  of  the  Company's  preferred stock (the "Series B Preferred
Stock")  on  the  terms  and  for  the  consideration  set  forth  below:

          (a)     TPRG  would  pay,  in  cash,  in the name and on behalf of the
Company,  up  to  $50,000,  for  the  following  purposes:

               (i)     Payment  of  legal  and  accounting  fees  and  expenses
incurred  and  to  be  incurred  in connection with the proposed Reorganization;

               (ii)     Payment of up to $15,000, over the 3-month period ending
February  23,  1999  (the  "Reorganization  Period"),  to  Robert  Stahl,  in
consideration  of  his  continuing  services as the President of the Company and
implementing the proposed Reorganization, all as more particularly outlined in a
separate  letter  agreement  with  Mr.  Stahl;  and

               (iii)     Payment  of the reasonable continuing costs incurred by
the  Company  during  the  Reorganization  Period (i.e., staff, rent, utilities,
postage,  etc.)  to  the  extent  sales  of  SoundXchanges by the Company do not
generate  the  necessary  funds.

          (b)     The Series B Preferred Stock would have an initial liquidation
preference  of  $.15 per share, would be convertible at the option of the holder
at  the rate of 10 shares of the Company's Common Stock for each share of Series
B  Preferred  Stock,  would be entitled to elect 3 of 5 directors of the Company
and  to  vote  along with the holders of the Company's Common Stock on all other
matters,  with  the  right  to  cast  that number of votes per share of Series B
Preferred  Stock  as is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which
each  share  of  Series B Preferred Stock is then convertible, and would contain
standard  conversion  price adjustment provisions to reflect stock splits, stock
dividends  and  the  like.

     2.     In  addition  to purchasing the Series B Preferred Stock, TPRG would
use its best efforts during the Reorganization Period to assist the officers and
directors  of  the Company, in such manner as TPRG determines to be necessary or
desirable  and  appropriate,  in  its  sole  discretion,  in  implementing  and
consummating  the  proposed  Reorganization.

<PAGE>
     3.     Assuming  that  the  proposed  Reorganization  can  successfully  be
            consummated,  TPRG  would  use  its  best  efforts  to  assist  the
            officers  and  directors  of  the Company,  in  such  manner as TPRG
            determines to be necessary or desirable and appropriate, in its sole
            discretion,  in  (a)  developing  a  technical  consulting  service
            business,  and  (b)  developing and/or acquiring such other business
            or  businesses  as  the  officers and  directors  of the Company, in
            consultation with TPRG, deem desirable and appropriate. In addition,
            TPRG  would  contribute  to  the  capital  of  the  Company  the
            indebtedness in the principal amount  of  $289,440 currently owed by
            the Company to TPRG  which is secured by a first  lien  against  all
            of  the  Company's  assets.

     4.     It  is  contemplated  that  the  Reorganization would consist of the
following  primary  components:

          (a)     Offer  to  Creditors.
                  ---------------------

               (i)     The  Company  would  offer  each  of the creditors of the
Company  identified  on  the  listing  attached hereto as Exhibit B the right to
receive  one (1) share of the Company's Common Stock for each $1.00 owed to such
creditor  as  reflected  on  Exhibit  B,  to  be  delivered  at  the  Closing.

               (ii)  Torrey  Pines Research, to which the Company currently owes
$500,000 plus accrued but unpaid interest, shall agree to exchange such debt for
600,000  shares of a second series of the Company's preferred stock (the "Series
C  Preferred  Stock")  upon  satisfaction of each of the conditions specified in
Exhibit  A  attached  hereto.  The Series C Preferred Stock will have an initial
liquidation  preference of $1.00 per share and will be convertible at the option
of  the  holder  at the rate of 10 shares of the Company's Common Stock for each
share  of  Series  C  Preferred  Stock.  The  Series  C  Preferred Stock will be
redeemable  by  the  Company, in whole or in part, at a price of $1.00 per share
upon  request  of  the holder given at any time after the expiration of one full
year  from the date the Series C Stock is issued provided that:  (1) the Company
has  net  income  before  taxes  for the previous fiscal year end as reported on
audited  statements  filed  with the SEC; and (2) at the date of the redemption,
the  Company has sufficient cash on hand so that after the redemption, cash plus
accounts  receivable  will exceed accounts payable and other current liabilities
payable in cash.  Series C Preferred Shareholders will be entitled to vote along
with the holders of the Company's Common Stock on all matters, with the right to
cast  that  number of votes per share of Series C Preferred Stock as is equal to
the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series C Preferred
Stock  is  then  convertible,  and  would  contain  standard  conversion  price
adjustment  provisions  to  reflect  stock splits, stock dividends and the like.

          (b)     Implementation.  It  is  contemplated  that  the  offer  to
                  ---------------
creditors  outlined  in  paragraph  4(a)  above would be implemented as follows:

<PAGE>
               (i)     Within  ten (10) business days following the finalization
hereof  and  acceptance  of such final terms and conditions by the Company, TPRG
and the officers and directors of the Company would work together to develop and
mail  the  documentation  necessary  to  communicate  the  offer  to  creditors;

               (ii)     Robert  Stahl, with the assistance of the other officers
and  directors of the Company as necessary, would directly contact each creditor
owed  $1,000  or  more  to  encourage  acceptance  of  the  offer;

               (iii)     Among  other things, consummation of the Reorganization
will  be  conditioned upon acceptance of the offer by creditors holding at least
95%  of  all  of  the  indebtedness  of  the Company reflected on Exhibit B; and

               (iv)     Following consummation of the Reorganization, except the
indebtedness of the Company to the State of South Dakota which is to survive the
Reorganization,  the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company shall not
exceed  5% of the aggregate amount reflected on Exhibit B, all of which shall be
and  remain  subject  to  applicable  statutes  of  limitations on actions to be
brought  by  creditors  on  account  thereof.

          (c)     Closing.  Consummation  of the Reorganization would occur at a
                  --------
Closing  to be held within three business days following the satisfaction of all
conditions  precedent  thereto  set  forth  herein, and such other conditions as
TPRG,  in  its  sole  discretion,  shall  deem  to be necessary or desirable and
appropriate.  Without  limiting  the  generality  of  the foregoing, the Closing
shall  be conditioned upon a determination by TPRG, in its sole discretion, that
the  transactions  contemplated  as part of the proposed Reorganization will not
constitute  a  "change  in  control" for purposes of Section 382 of the Internal
Revenue  Code which would limit the use by the Company of its net operating loss
carry-forwards  from  and  after  the  Closing.

          (d)     Confidentiality.  During  the  period  between the date hereof
                  ----------------
and  the  Closing,  each  the  Company  shall  give  to  TPRG and its authorized
representatives  full access, during reasonable business hours, in such a manner
as  not  unduly  to  disrupt  normal  business activities, to any and all of the
Company's premises, properties, contracts, books, records and affairs, and shall
cause  the  Company's  officers  to  furnish  any  and  all data and information
pertaining  to  the Company's business that TPRG or its representatives may from
time  to  time  reasonably  require.  The  Closing  will  be  conditioned  upon
verification  by  TPRG  that  the  assets and liabilities, and the prospects and
condition,  financial and otherwise, of the Company are as have been represented
to  TPRG.  Unless  and  until  the transactions contemplated by this letter have
been  consummated, neither the Company or any of its officers and directors, one
the  one hand, nor TPRG or any of its officers and directors, on the other hand,
shall  make  any announcement or other disclosure with respect to the receipt or
acceptance  of  this  Term  Sheet,  or  the  transaction proposed herein, or the
closing  of  the  transactions  contemplated  hereby, without the consent of the
other  party  (which shall not unreasonably be withheld), and each shall hold in
confidence  all  information  obtained  from  the  other.  In the event that the

<PAGE>
transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, each party shall return to
the  other  all documents so obtained.  This obligation of confidentiality shall
not  extend  to any information which is shown to have previously been (i) known
to  the  party receiving it, (ii) generally known to others engaged in the trade
or  business  of  the  party  receiving  it,  (iii)  part of public knowledge or
literature,  or  (iv)  lawfully received from a third party not having a duty of
confidentiality.

     5.     Beginning  immediately  upon  acceptance  of  the  final  terms  and
conditions hereof by the parties and continuing until the Closing, neither party
shall  entertain,  negotiate  or  discuss  with  any  third  party,  directly or
indirectly,  at  any  time between the date hereof and the Closing, any possible
business  combination,  sale  or  assets or stock, or other transaction which is
inconsistent  with  the  transactions  contemplated  hereby.

     If each of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company (other than
Mr.  Hanson)  is  in  agreement  with  the terms and conditions set forth above,
please  so  indicate  by  signing  this Term Sheet where indicated below, and by
causing  this  Term  Sheet  to  be  signed on behalf of the Company as indicated
below.
