                           [McSHANE GROUP LETTERHEAD]

February 26, 2001

Mr Kennard F. Hill
Chairman of the Board
Condor Technologies, Inc.
170 Jennifer Road, Suite 325
Annapolis, MD 21401

Dear Ken:

Tom McShane and I appreciate the time that you spent with us reviewing the
current situation at Condor Technologies, Inc. (herein "the Company"). I also
appreciate the time Peter Garahan and Bill Newport spent with me on the 22nd
of February. We understand and respect the concern that was expressed on
behalf of the interests of the stockholders of the Company over the recent
financial performance.

We also thank you for the opportunity to propose McShane Group, Inc.'s
("McShane") services to assist the Company at this time. As we discussed,
McShane Group has considerable experience in working with financially
troubled companies. Accordingly, we are confident in our ability to provide
the assistance that the Company requires at this time.

The purpose of this letter is to set forth the terms and to confirm the
engagement of McShane Group to provide management and consulting services to
the Company.

ENGAGEMENT SCOPE

McShane is being engaged to provide executive leadership to the management of
the business affairs of the Company. In addition to the management of the
day-to-day business of the Company, McShane will evaluate the overall
strengths and weaknesses and the options available to the Company and make
recommendations to the Board of Directors. Options to be evaluated will
include business turnaround, forbearance arrangements with creditors and the
possible sale of the business or liquidation scenarios.

<PAGE>

Our objective is to develop strategies and action plans that address the
current problems facing the Company and to assist in the achievement of the
highest enterprise value of the Company for the stockholders and other
stakeholders.

McShane shall provide as an interim executive manager, Jimmie L. Huitt, Jr.
to serve as President and Chief Operating Officer ("COO"). The COO shall be
responsible for the overall management of the business affairs of the Company
and such other duties as directed by Mr. Hill and the Board of Directors of
the Company. The COO shall devote an average of 4 days per week to his duties
hereunder .

McShane will additionally provide, to the extent detem1ined necessary by the
COO, Mr. Hill and the Board of Directors, management and consulting services
by other McShane Group consultants to support the COO in developing and
implementing plans for the management of the Company.

It is understood that the COO, as a principal of McShane Group, may, without
the prior written consent of the Board of Directors, engage, from time to
time, in other business activities of McShane provided that those activities
do not interfere with the COO's responsibilities to the Company.

FEE STRUCTURE AND STAFFING

Time Charges: A basic management fee of $2,400 per day will be charged for
the interim COO's services to be provided by Jim Huitt. Jim will be assisted
by Tom McShane and other McShane Group consultants as needed. Tom's and other
consultants' fees will be charged on an hourly basis at rates ranging from
$325 to $150 per hour.

Engagement Expenses: Out-of-pocket costs, including travel and lodging will
be passed along without mark-up.

Refinancing Success Fee: If, in the course of this engagement McShane Group
is asked to obtain senior debt financing, the success fee shall be the
greater of $100,000 or 1% of the total senior financing commitment. This fee
is contingent upon the transaction being accepted by the Board of Directors
and is payable as part of the closing. Any consulting time and expenses
involving the time of McShane Group with these efforts will be deducted from
the Refinancing Success Fee.

Operations Improvement Success Fee: In addition to time charges the Company
agrees to consider paying an operations improvement success fee which is
commensurate with the results achieved for the Company. The timing and the
amount of the success fee will be determined at the complete discretion of
the Board of Directors.

Payment terms: Invoices are prepared on the 15th and last days of each month.
Payment is due when submitted. A $50,000 retainer will be required to
initiate the engagement

                                      2

<PAGE>

and invoices will be applied against the retainer. The retainer will be
replenished at the end of each moth and held and applied to final engagement
invoices. Remaining balances will be promptly refunded.

OTHER MATTERS

The Company or McShane Group may terminate this Agreement with or without
cause with thirty days notice.

The Company shall defend and indemnify McShane and its officers, directors,
stockholders, employees, and subcontractors from and against any and all
claims, liabilities or damages arising as a result of McShane's performance
of its duties, including any the Company shareholder actions, hereunder
except to the extent the liability or damages are attributable to the gross
negligence or willful act or omission of McShane. The Company will reimburse
McShane and any other party entitled to be indemnified hereunder for all
reasonable and necessary expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) as
they are incurred by McShane or any such other indemnified party in
connection with investigating, preparing for or defending any such action or
claim. This provision shall survive the termination of this agreement.

We do not anticipate any future issues to arise between us, but it is always
prudent to provide an amicable process to resolve any that may occur.
Therefore, we mutually agree that we will use all reasonable efforts to
resolve amicably any controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to this
Agreement. In the event any controversy or claim cannot be resolved by
agreement, we mutually agree to arbitration in Baltimore, MD, in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. If either of us do
institute any action or proceeding respecting this Agreement, the prevailing
party will be entitled to reasonable fees, costs and expenses of attorneys,
accountants and other professionals and consultants.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

We understand that the Company's customer lists and other technical and
business information are confidential. Unless specifically authorized by the
Company, both during and after termination of our relationship, we will not
use such information for our benefit or the benefit of anyone other than the
Company or disclose this information to anyone outside of the Company except
for and in the proper course of the Company's business and its efforts to
obtain replacement financing. We will always use our best efforts to keep all
information confidential.

CONCLUSION

Over the years McShane Group has been highly successful in assisting
companies through difficult periods. Our professionals are skilled and
experienced businessmen who are prepared to deliver the services the Company
requires at this time.

         approval of Condor stockholders, described below:

         A.       First, a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of the
                  Company in a ratio to be determined by the Company.

         B.       Second, the issuance to a trust established by the Lender
                  Group (the "Trust"), of that number of Common shares that will
                  represent 55% of

<PAGE>

                  all outstanding shares of the Company, following the
                  actions described below (including contemplated future
                  issuances in C below).

         C.       Third, the issuance or reservation for future issuance of
                  additional shares of Common Stock to provide for (a)
                  settlement of all earnout obligations of the Company; and (b)
                  issuances under certain Board-approved stock-based management
                  incentive plans of the Company (including outstanding stock
                  options of the Company). These shares, together with "old
                  equity" shares, shall aggregate not less than 45% of all
                  shares outstanding (including contemplated future issuances).

         The foregoing proposed stock issuances and stock reserves will be
         submitted for approval to Stockholders of the Company at the Annual
         Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 3, 2001 (record date March
         9, 2001), as part of a proposal for the recapitalization of the
         Company.

         The Trust shall issue to the members of the Lender Group, Note D, in
         the amount of $11.5mm that shall be secured by the Common Stock. Any
         amounts remaining in the Trust following the disposition of the
         stock shall be distributed to the participants in the Trust in
         accordance with their interests.

         All interests in the Trust and all of the Notes shall be freely
         assignable by each of the Lenders in any combination (subject to the
         consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
         withheld).

10.      The Borrowers shall continue to engage as part of the management
         team a professional manager acceptable to the Lenders and the
         Company and shall utilize such professional manager at all times
         until the above-referenced notes are paid in full (unless consented
         to by all the Lenders). The professional manager, in conjunction
         with other members of management, will report to and act on behalf
         of the Board of Directors to implement and carry out the business
         plan.

11.      The business plan that has been provided to the Lenders should be
         expanded to include the financial detail and assumptions that
         support and upon which the plan is based. The completed business
         plan with the supporting detail should be delivered to the lenders
         by a mutually agreeable date. The business plan must be acceptable
         to all members of the Borrowers' management team, including, without
         limitation, the professional manager. The events that would trigger
         an event of default would be the failure of the Company to deliver a
         revised business plan.
