RECITALS

      A. DAC is a direct marketer, which provides outsourcing services for
information technology products, consisting of marketing, sales, and fulfillment
functions. DAC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

      B. TOSHIBA desires to outsource on a non-exclusive basis certain aspects
of a direct-channel sales operation and wishes to engage DAC in such efforts.
The parties understand that the Program described in this Agreement will not
involve the storage or warehousing, by DAC, of products for sale, except for
returns. However, TOSHIBA may elect to change the fulfillment relationship in
the future as defined in Section 2.1.

      IN CONSIDERATION of the respective commitments of the parties, as set

additional Program requirements approved by TOSHIBA in writing, plus (iii) costs
incurred by DAC for salary/wages and burden associated with personnel hires in

following items:

                                      -3-

            HMAX system access fee.....................................[**1**]
            HTaxware software license fee..............................[**1**]
            HMAX Server Hardware.......................................[**1**]
            HMax Back Up Server........................................[**1**]
            HXML Web Programming.......................................[**1**]
            HMiscellaneous IT..........................................[**1**]
            HHuman Resources...........................................[**1**]

                  Total (i) start-up costs.............................[**1**]

            4.1.2 DAC shall present for approval by TOSHIBA Personnel
Requisitions for all Program start-up related hiring and Program Requisitions
for all other Program related expenses, including any items not specifically
described in Section 4.1.1 above, before making any expenditures related to the
Program. TOSHIBA's approval of any requisition presented to TOSHIBA shall
constitute a promise to pay for the personnel, items or services indicated.

            4.1.3 TOSHIBA agrees to pay [**2**] defined as 75% of the [**2**]
invoiced on DAC invoice 0400 dated April 21, 2000. These charges are for
start-up fees defined in Section 4.1.1 above and the Letter of Intent (LOI)
between TOSHIBA and DAC dated March 31, 2000. TOSHIBA agrees to pay the
remaining 25% defined as [**2**] of the[**2**] start-up fee upon Program
commencement, defined as the first day of order processing. Any additional
start-up expenses not defined in Sections 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 will be due DAC, within
normal invoice terms, provided such expenses are defined by DAC and approved in
writing by a TOSHIBA Authorized Signer.

                  (1) If the Taxware software costs less than [**3**] DAC will
      refund the difference to TOSHIBA. If the Taxware software costs more than
      [**3**] TOSHIBA will reimburse DAC for the additional expense incurred in
      acquiring the software. DAC will provide TOSHIBA with the Taxware invoice
      if the costs exceed [**3**].

                  (2) If the Program requires an expenditure by DAC of less than
      [**3**] for electronic commerce and operating system hardware and
      software, DAC will refund the difference to TOSHIBA. If the Program
      requires additional system hardware or software, including a Program MAX
      operating system server and associated equipment, which costs DAC more
      than the [**3**] allocated, TOSHIBA agrees to pay DAC for the additional
      costs incurred that are approved by TOSHIBA in writing. NOTE: DAC has
      offered pricing for a backup server which TOSHIBA has decided to include
      in the start-up expenses.

                  (3) Web Programming labor and expenses of [**3**] includes all
      labor and expenses associated with start-up of the XML to TOSHIBA's front
      end website including miscellaneous web development activities. TOSHIBA
      agrees

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5

      to pay DAC for all additional start-up costs that are requested by DAC and
      approved in writing by TOSHIBA.

                  (4) TOSHIBA will provide DAC with desktop PC's in sufficient
      quantity to support the Program. DAC will purchase and separately bill
      TOSHIBA for its standard network card defined as Intel 10/100 Management
      Pro Card or equivalent. DAC shall be allowed to install its standard
      application software suite, at no cost to TOSHIBA, which shall remain in
      the possession of DAC for the term of the Program. TOSHIBA shall have no
      right of ownership or liability whatsoever with respect to the application
      software, including but not limited to ensuring that software or other
      hardware is compatible with the desktop computers. At the termination of
      Program DAC shall uninstall its software but TOSHIBA may retain, at its
      option, any installed hardware components.

                  (5) TOSHIBA shall retain ownership in all hardware purchased
      by DAC on behalf of TOSHIBA, provided TOSHIBA reimburses DAC for the cost
      in accordance with this Agreement, or supplied by TOSHIBA and dedicated to
      the Program. Upon termination of this Agreement, DAC shall cooperate in
      removal of such hardware from its premises, and shall reimburse TOSHIBA
      for the reasonable cost of all hardware which it cannot account for.

            4.1.4 TOSHIBA agrees to pay all other TOSHIBA-approved Program
start-up expenditures on net [**4**]-day terms from date of invoice. Such
expenditures will only be made and billed by DAC after written approval by
TOSHIBA via a Program or Personnel Requisition.

      4.2 Capital Expenditures. Based on anticipated Program requirements, no
additional capital expenditures that are the responsibility of TOSHIBA are
anticipated except those associated with, and indicated as, Start-up Fees.
Capital expenditures not included in the Program Start-up Fees shall be treated
as Allocated Fees and shall be capitalized by DAC for purposes of the Program.
Depreciated amounts shall be charged as Allocated Fees as items are depreciated.
Upon termination of this Agreement, TOSHIBA will take ownership of such
equipment as defined in Section 12.4.

            4.2.1 Each capital equipment requirement will be submitted by DAC to
TOSHIBA for written approval on a "Program Requisition Form" (a copy of which is
attached as Exhibit "D"), before a corresponding expenditure is made. All
reasonably required information will be included in each request to permit
TOSHIBA to make an informed decision. If TOSHIBA agrees in advance it is
necessary to make a capital purchase in support of the Program, DAC may lease
real and personal property for Program uses. DAC agrees that TOSHIBA will have
no liability with respect to any lease for a term greater than the length of
this Agreement unless this Agreement is extended or renewed for an additional
term; however, DAC shall take commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate
damages. The form of any lease must be approved in advance by TOSHIBA. Approval
of a lease or capital expenditure by TOSHIBA shall signify its agreement to make
payments as contemplated by this Section 4.2.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>   6

            4.2.2 DAC will also invoice TOSHIBA as Allocated Fees for all
Program-related lease payments and the TOSHIBA approved carrying costs
associated with the non-depreciated capital expenditures at the end of each
calendar month. Such fees will be payable [**5**] days from date of such
invoice.

      4.3 Variable Fees. All fees billed by DAC to TOSHIBA pursuant to this
Agreement shall be Variable Fees except for Allocated and Performance Fees as
defined in Sections 4.4 and 4.5. Any item billed as an Allocated or Performance
Fee will not also be billed as a Variable Fee.

            4.3.1 Variable Fees will be submitted by DAC to TOSHIBA for
approval, showing either individual items or categories, or both, on a Program
Requisition Form. Such fees will be payable [**6**] days from date of such
invoice. Variable Fees for services may be submitted by DAC and approved by
TOSHIBA on a per unit basis with an unknown volume or quantity (such as outbound
freight, telephone rates); or Variable Fees may be submitted by DAC and approved
by TOSHIBA for a Program requirement on a per occurrence basis (such as business
related travel, special services requested by TOSHIBA and the like); or Variable
Fees may be submitted based on a service occurrence that is outside the standard
scope of services covered under Allocated Fees (such as a request to mail 50,000
letters to Program customers). To maximize Program performance capabilities,
Variable Fees less that $1,500 per occurrence and $5,000 per month, shall not
require submission or subsequent approval of a Program Requisition Form. Except
as provided in Section 9.1 of Exhibit A, all approvals to incur Variable Fees
may be modified or cancelled by TOSHIBA at any time on ten (10) days notice,
provided that TOSHIBA will be responsible for all Variable Fees reasonably
incurred by DAC prior to modification or cancellation.

            4.3.2 Variable Fees shall include a flat fee of [**7**] per
Program-dedicated employee, per month (which amount covers general day-to-day
overhead, such as postage, printing, fax and other items).

            4.3.3 Additionally, DAC shall bill as Variable Fees an employee
benefits burden of 19% of each Program-dedicated employee's salary, commission
and bonus.

            4.3.4 Requests by DAC for increases in employee compensation and
increases in staffing positions and associated compensation for additional
dedicated Program personnel must be submitted on a Personnel Requisition Form, a
copy of which is attached as Exhibit "E".

            4.3.5 Variable Fees for third-party products offered in the Program
and supplied by DAC will be at cost. DAC shall bill for such third party
products on the 15th and 30th of each month with terms of Net 15 days from
receipt of notice.

                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7

            4.3.6 All reasonable inbound freight cost, if any, associated with
third party products offered in the Program and supplied by DAC, will be passed
to TOSHIBA on an after-the-fact basis, at DAC's cost.

            4.3.7 All reasonable packaging material cost, if any, associated
with Program shipments and supplied by DAC, will be passed to TOSHIBA on an
after-the-fact basis, at DAC's cost.

            4.3.8 DAC will not purchase any third-party products for inventory
without TOSHIBA's prior written approval. DAC may be requested to apply its
buying relationship with distribution channel partners or material manufacturers
for the purpose of providing a direct ship fulfillment arrangement to TOSHIBA
customers. All product costs for such arrangements will be at DAC's cost, as
provided and agreed to in advance by TOSHIBA.

            4.3.9 All Variable Fees shall be invoiced at DAC's cost, except with
respect to products or services acquired from vendors/suppliers that have
contracts with DAC which prohibit disclosure of DAC's costs. Currently, Federal
Express, UPS, Ingram Micro, Tech Data, Merisel, AT&T and Cable and Wireless,
have contracts that prohibit the disclosure of DAC's costs. With respect to
products or services from such vendors, DAC will provide, in advance, a rate or
cost that TOSHIBA can use to determine whether TOSHIBA can provide the service
or product at a lower rate or cost. TOSHIBA then shall determine either to
obtain such services or products from DAC or elect to have DAC secure the
services or products through TOSHIBA.

            4.3.10 Compensation (salary, bonus and the amounts contemplated by
Sections 4.3.2 and 4.3.3) for dedicated Program employees and materials shall be
billed as Variable Fees two times each month, on the dates of DAC's normal
payroll payments. Such fees will be payable within [**8**] days from date of
each such invoice.

            4.3.11 Any Variable Fees that have been approved, but are not billed
in, or with respect to, the month incurred, shall not be deemed non-billable in
a later month because of the delay; provided, however, that TOSHIBA shall not be
responsible for any penalties for late payments or any late charges on such
amounts until the passage of [**9**] days from date of the invoice.

            4.3.12 Variable Fees may include a flat fee of [**10**] per eligible
person per month for "Sales Promotion Fees" for the period of July 1, 2000
through March 31, 2001. Effective April 1, 2001, until termination of this
Agreement, the Sales Promotion Fee shall be [**10**] per eligible person per
month. Eligible persons include Program-dedicated Sales and Sales Support
personnel, defined as persons with the title Supervisor and below. DAC will
provide TOSHIBA in advance with details of the Associate of Month/Year program
so that TOSHIBA has full knowledge of the program, including how such funds will
be spent.

      4.4 Allocated Fees. Allocated Fees shall be equal to the amount shown on
Exhibit "B" and cover the items listed in such Exhibit.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>   8

            4.4.1 Allocated Fees associated with "Non-dedicated Program
Management Personnel" and "DAC-affiliate Allocated Costs," as that terminology
is used in Exhibit "B", shall not exceed the dollar amount set forth for those
items in Exhibit "B" during the time period from July 1, 2000 through the close
of business on June 30, 2002 and if applicable the nine month extension period
as provided for in Section 1. Allocated fees will be reviewed and mutually
agreed upon in writing prior to the one year extension as provided for in
Section 1.

            4.4.2 Allocated Fees for "Expense for Sales/Administrative and
Distribution Facilities Space," as that terminology is used in Exhibit "B", may
be adjusted only by written agreement based on Program or dedicated Program
Personnel modifications requested by TOSHIBA.

            4.4.3 Allocated Fees shall be billed monthly. Such fees will be
payable within [**11**] days from date of such invoice.

            4.4.4 Any Allocated Fees that are not billed in, or with respect to,
the month incurred, shall not be deemed non-billable in a later month because of
the delay; provided, however, that TOSHIBA shall not be responsible for any
penalties for late payments or any late charges on such amounts.

      4.5 Performance Fees. Performance Fees shall be paid by TOSHIBA to DAC as
remuneration for Program services. Performance Fees shall consist of a fixed
monthly fee, a fee calculated as a percentage of Net Sales fee, and if requested
and approved by TOSHIBA, a marketing services fee.

            4.5.1 TOSHIBA shall pay DAC a fixed monthly fee of [**12**] per
month for the term of the Agreement. [**12**] Such fees will be invoiced monthly
and will be payable within [**12**] days from date of such invoice. [**12**]

            4.5.2 Additionally, TOSHIBA shall pay DAC a monthly percentage of
Net Sales. It is contemplated that at least three order sources will exist in
the Program.

                  (1) 'Unassisted sales' are defined as sales resulting from
            consumer orders placed through the Accessories Website or TOSHIBA's
            internet website. Such consumer customers will be identified as
            having three line addresses (i.e. excludes any reference to a
            business or similar entity in a fourth address line).

                  (2) 'House sales' are defined as sales to specific protected
            TOSHIBA accounts which are established by mutual agreement.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

                  (3) 'Assisted sales' are those sales not classified as
            "Unassisted sales" or "House sales" as defined in sections A or "B"
            above.

                  TOSHIBA shall pay DAC an amount equivalent to [**13**] of
            Assisted Net Sales until June 30, 2002. If TOSHIBA exercises its
            option to extend the term of this Agreement for an additional 9
            months the monthly percentage fee for this period shall be [**13**]
            of Assisted Net Sales. If the term of this Agreement is renewed for
            an additional 1 year after the 9 month extension the monthly
            percentage of Net Sales shall be [**13**] during the renewal period.

                  TOSHIBA shall pay DAC an amount equivalent to [**13**] of Net
            Sales for Unassisted or House sales, including those routed through
            MAX either from TOSHIBA's internet website, the Accessories Website
            or from TOSHIBA's order processing system.

            4.5.3 Additionally, TOSHIBA shall pay a marketing services fee, per
the following schedule depending on marketing services as requested in writing
by TOSHIBA and performed by DAC. Catalog design shall be priced at cost plus
[**14**], catalog printing at cost plus [**14**], and database consulting at
cost plus [**14**].

            4.5.4 The fees described in Sections 4.5.2 and 4.5.3 for the
previous month shall be invoiced by DAC on or about the first day of the
following month. Such fees will be payable within [**15**] days from date of
such invoice.

            4.5.5 From time to time TOSHIBA may decide to transition an account
from one subsidiary to another or to an affiliate. TOSHIBA will establish an
inter-company process to accomplish this transition. [**16**]

      4.6 Metrics. On or before September 30, 2000 based on an analysis of
Program performance and other pertinent performance, the parties will mutually
determine the top ten metrics and assign appropriate weighting values and rating
scales to each (the "Metrics"), which will be set forth in Exhibit "C".

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

      4.7 Invoices.

            4.7.1 Each invoice shall be subject to verification by TOSHIBA with
regard to the accuracy of the amount invoiced by DAC. Invoices shall reference
the Purchase Order number, if any, and shall be submitted to Toshiba America
Information Systems, Inc., 9740 Irvine Boulevard, Irvine, CA 92618 Attention:
Accounts Payable.

            4.7.2 All billings, except as otherwise stated within this
agreement, are net [**17**] days from date of invoice. Carrying costs of
[**18**] per annum shall be calculated and billed on a monthly basis for all
undisputed invoice amounts that have been outstanding for more than [**17**]
days.

      4.8 Sales and Property Taxes. DAC will calculate and charge sales, use and
transaction privilege taxes, on behalf of TOSHIBA, for specific states at
TOSHIBA's request. TOSHIBA will be responsible for the remittance of any sales,
use, transaction privilege or property taxes arising from Program activities to
the appropriate government agency and for any penalties or interest imposed in
connection with such taxes, unless such penalties or interest is a result of
DAC's failure to provide such information to TOSHIBA in a timely manner, in
which case such amounts shall be DAC's responsibility. In situations in which
services are performed as required by this Agreement, TOSHIBA will bear all
applicable sales and property taxes and will bear all state or federal income
tax liability allocable to TOSHIBA pertaining to Goods. In order for the Program
to be operational by the scheduled date, TOSHIBA agrees to use Taxware software
for the collection of sales and use taxes. However, TOSHIBA may choose to use
its own tax calculation system provided TOSHIBA is responsible for all
procurement and implementation costs associated with making its software
compatible with DAC's MAX system. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, unless TOSHIBA notifies DAC in writing and in a timely manner in
advance of when the activities of either TOSHIBA or any of its affiliates will
or might reasonably be expected to result in the assertion by any taxing
authority that DAC should collect taxes with respect to sales into any state,
country or territory, DAC shall not be penalized or held responsible for any
failure to collect such taxes and TOSHIBA shall hold DAC harmless with respect
thereto. If a state determines that TOSHIBA must pay state sales use or other
transaction privilege taxes for previous sales, TOSHIBA will be responsible for
paying or contesting such taxes in the legally prescribed manner and will hold
DAC harmless from and against any liability in connection therewith (other than
as provided above).

5.    STAFFING OF PERSONNEL.

      5.1 Program staffing and associated compensation will be suggested by DAC
to ensure the TOSHIBA Program is at a competitive level with programs of similar
size, purpose, objectives, and scope and approved in writing by TOSHIBA. No
staffing and/or compensation modifications will be made without TOSHIBA's
written approval and said approval will result in TOSHIBA's recognition and
agreement to pay for the approved additional costs, or recognize the additional

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

savings associated with the change. Compensation packages and compensation
adjustments must be approved in writing by TOSHIBA either specifically, or by
approval of DAC's policies. TOSHIBA recognizes that DAC policy allows for a
compensation increase of up to [**20**] per non-sales representative on the
anniversary of employment date.

      5.2 Each party agrees to identify a contact to provide the necessary
support in implementation of Program business requirements and in the
performance of Program activities. TOSHIBA will also make available to DAC or
provide at DAC's site, a program manager, a credit supervisor/manager, and
credit/leasing personnel (as needed) and provide product training. Each party
will provide reasonable written notice to the other party before making any
changes in the contact or other key personnel.

      5.3 Personnel supplied by DAC are DAC's employees and shall not for any
purpose be considered employees or agents of TOSHIBA. DAC shall have all
management authority with respect to DAC's employees and DAC assumes full
responsibility for the actions of such personnel while performing services
pursuant to this Agreement.

      5.4 Personnel supplied by TOSHIBA are TOSHIBA's employees and shall not
for any purpose be considered employees or agents of DAC. TOSHIBA assumes full
responsibility for the actions of such personnel while performing services
pursuant to this Agreement, whether or not any of such services are performed on
premises owned, leased or maintained by DAC, provided that DAC shall have
standard obligations under applicable law to TOSHIBA's employees on DAC's owned,
leased or maintained premises, as business invitees.

      5.5 It is understood that neither party's employees or subcontractors
shall have any rights or privileges under any of the other party's employee
benefits programs.

      5.6 DAC agrees to perform its standard employee investigations with
respect to all prospective employees dedicated to the Program, which
investigation shall, at a minimum, include a background investigation, drug
testing and certain skills tests. TOSHIBA agrees to pay a fee of $[**21**] for
the investigation of each prospective employee, which amounts shall be billed
with other Variable Fees on a monthly basis. DAC shall indemnify, defend, and
hold harmless TOSHIBA in the event someone disqualified from employment takes
legal action against TOSHIBA alleging discriminatory hiring practices related to
DAC's use of its background investigation.

      TOSHIBA reserves the right to audit background investigation results at
any time during the term of this Agreement. Investigations by DAC shall comply
with all applicable federal, state and local laws for background investigations.
All use of such information must be in compliance with applicable federal, state
and local laws.

6.    COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW; SOFTWARE.

      6.1 DAC agrees to make, file and retain (for the periods required by law)
all required federal, state, and local reports and records, to withhold all
proper payroll deductions, and to pay all premiums in connection with social
security and workers compensation insurance; all federal, state and local
payroll and withholding taxes, and all other charges and taxes attributable to
the performance of its duties under this Agreement and in connection with the
Program.

      6.2 In its performance under this Agreement, DAC will comply with all
applicable laws and regulations pertaining to the services rendered under this
Agreement, including all federal, state or local laws and regulations relating
to the performance of telemarketing services or to hiring and employment
practices.

      6.3 Upon request by TOSHIBA, DAC shall certify compliance with such
applicable laws and regulations, and provide such evidence of compliance as
TOSHIBA may reasonably request. TOSHIBA shall have the right to audit DAC's
books and records for the Program, and at TOSHIBA's expense once per fiscal
year, for the purpose of assuring compliance with the obligations described in
this Section 6. In connection with the employment of DAC's dedicated personnel
assigned to perform work hereunder, DAC will cooperate with all federal, state
and local authorities in the conduct of any audits for the purpose of
determining DAC's compliance with this Section 6.

      6.4 TOSHIBA may make available certain rights to use or license software
with the TOSHIBA Products. No rights are granted to DAC with respect to the use
or license of any such software by reason of this Agreement, except as required
by law. DAC shall not copy, modify, transcribe, store, translate, reverse
engineer, sell, lease, or otherwise transfer or distribute any such software
except in accordance with this Agreement. Any improper use of such software
shall be deemed an Event of Default.

7.    CONSIGNED INVENTORY

      From time to time, Goods, including returned Goods, will be delivered to
DAC in connection with the Program. Such Goods will be consigned to DAC solely
for use in meeting the requirements of this Agreement and as further defined
below:

      7.1 TOSHIBA will at all times retain title to the Goods consigned to DAC
under this Agreement. DAC agrees that the Goods will only be utilized to fulfill
the terms of this Agreement and the Goods will not be leased, rented, consigned,
sold, or otherwise conveyed or transferred to any third party unless expressly
authorized in writing by TOSHIBA. DAC shall not allow or permit any lien,
security interest or other encumbrance to be placed on or otherwise affect the
Goods other than security interests and other encumbrances granted to TOSHIBA.
TOSHIBA will, at any time, be entitled to the prompt return of such Goods at
TOSHIBA's expense. DAC agrees that it will give TOSHIBA reasonable prior notice
of filing of any voluntary petition, and prompt notice of the filing

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13

or any involuntary petition, under any bankruptcy laws. DAC shall not include
any of the Goods in DAC's bankruptcy estate.

      7.2 TOSHIBA shall assume risk of loss for Goods returned to DAC until such
Goods are actually delivered to DAC. Upon delivery to DAC, DAC shall secure the
Goods under all reasonable and appropriate care that DAC uses for its own
property, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent any
damage, loss, deterioration, or the like to the Goods. Subject to Section 7.5,
DAC assumes all risk of loss or damage to the Goods while the Goods are in DAC's
possession. DAC's obligation in this regard shall be satisfied if the Goods are
delivered to a carrier acceptable to TOSHIBA for shipment to TOSHIBA or any
designee, agent or customer of TOSHIBA in the same condition as when delivered
to DAC except for minor packaging damage. Once DAC has delivered any Goods to a
common carrier approved by TOSHIBA and such approved carrier takes possession of
and verifies in writing that it has received such goods, TOSHIBA shall have the
risk of loss, and shall insure and pay for shipment of such Goods. DAC shall
make commercially reasonable efforts to package with the intention of preventing
loss of TOSHIBA Goods while in transit. Subject to Section 7.5, if any Goods
shipped by DAC are returned to DAC for any reason, DAC shall reassume risk of
loss or damage beyond the condition such goods are received by DAC once they are
redelivered.

      7.3 Except as may be necessary to protect and preserve such Goods with
prior approval by TOSHIBA (which notification will be in writing except when
exigent circumstances justify oral notification), DAC will not relocate any
TOSHIBA-owned Goods to a facility other than the location specified in this
Agreement. TOSHIBA will have the right to inspect any substitute facility and
reserves the right to refuse to allow the use of any such facility that does not
meet the standard requirements of TOSHIBA. In the event of unauthorized movement
of to a substitute facility, DAC assumes full responsibility and is liable to
reimburse TOSHIBA the value of such Goods (as determined by reference to the
value of such Goods at time of consignment to DAC) for any loss due to damage,
theft or any infidelity, conversion and/or misappropriation whether or not known
to DAC, including loss or shortage disclosed upon taking inventory. In addition,
DAC will pay all necessary freight and/or other expenses incurred in replacing
such Goods. DAC will notify TOSHIBA promptly of the new location of any Goods
which are moved without TOSHIBA's prior authorization.

      7.4 DAC will not alter, modify or change any Goods unless expressly
authorized in writing by TOSHIBA. In the event of any unauthorized alteration,
modification or change, TOSHIBA will not be liable for any loss, claim, damage
or delay caused thereby or arising therefrom and DAC will restore Goods to their
original condition before returning them to TOSHIBA or providing them to
customers.

      7.5 Subject to [**22**] shrinkage of the merchandise value of the Goods
which have been consigned to DAC after DAC has validated the inventory, DAC
agrees to manage, control, audit, and secure all Goods to ensure accurate
inventory and full accountability of all Goods in its facilities. DAC agrees to
tag the Goods physically to identify them as owned by TOSHIBA and

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14

return such products to TOSHIBA, distributors or product manufacturers, as
determined by mutually agreed to business rules, and segregate them
electronically from any Goods that are not owned by TOSHIBA within DAC's
facilities.

      7.6 Except as provided in this Section 7.6, TOSHIBA's right and access to
all Goods consigned under this Agreement will be unconditional and unrestricted.
Any entry by TOSHIBA to DAC's facility for the purpose of reviewing consigned
Goods will be in the presence of an authorized DAC employee and during DAC's
normal business hours.

      7.7 It is the intent of the parties that this consignment constitutes a
true consignment and not a consignment for security. Nonetheless, if this
consignment is construed as a consignment for security instead of a true
consignment, in order to secure DAC's obligations hereunder, DAC hereby grants
to TOSHIBA a security interest and purchase money security interest in all
Goods. TOSHIBA may take any action (without notice, presentment, demand,
protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notices of acceleration or notice of
intent to accelerate, all of which DAC hereby waives) afforded a secured party
under the Uniform Commercial Code upon the occurrence of a material violation by
DAC of its obligations under this Section 7, and upon such occurrence, all
obligations of DAC due to TOSHIBA hereunder shall, upon notice by TOSHIBA,
become immediately due and payable; provided, if the violation giving rise to
the foregoing remedies is attributable to DAC's insolvency or any bankruptcy
related proceeding affecting DAC, all obligations of DAC to TOSHIBA shall
automatically become due and payable. DAC agrees to sign financing statements,
continuation statements and such other instruments as TOSHIBA may reasonably
request to maintain a first priority, perfected security interest in the Goods
(if this consignment is construed as a consignment for security instead of a
true consignment).

      7.8 Liability for Goods.

            7.8.1 The parties agree that DAC's care, custody, and control
("Care, Custody, and Control") over Goods shall commence when DAC takes
possession of such Goods at the DAC facilities and continue until DAC has
delivered such Goods to a common carrier approved by TOSHIBA and such approved
carrier takes possession of and verifies in writing that it has received such
Goods. DAC will not tender Goods valued in excess of $5,000,000 on any one
conveyance without prior notification and written approval by TOSHIBA Risk
Management.

            7.8.2 DAC shall reconcile all inbound shipments of Goods (except
Goods returned from customers) with expected shipments, carrier delivery order,
bills of lading and packing lists and shall notify TOSHIBA Transportation
Department within 48 hours of product receipt at DAC's facility of any variance
in quantity of the Goods received and all observable defects or damages in the
Goods. For the purposes of this Agreement, "observable defects" shall mean only
those defects plainly and readily visible to the human eye and requiring no
technical skills or background to discover upon a visual inspection. DAC shall
maintain accurate inventory record counts and record all observable defects in
the Goods. DAC will not be liable for concealed or unobservable damage

                                      -14-
<PAGE>   15

to the Goods and will not be required to open packages solely for the purpose of
checking for damage.

            From time to time DAC shall receive Goods that are returned from
Program customers. DAC shall make commercially reasonable efforts to document
the condition of the cartons and contents upon receipt. TOSHIBA will be
responsible to provide DAC with policies and practices to follow in the event of
Program returns. Such policies will be in writing and shall be deemed
incorporated into this Agreement.

            7.8.3 After adjustment for permissible shrinkage, DAC will be liable
for the first [**23**] per occurrence of loss or damage occurring with respect
to TOSHIBA-owned Goods under DAC's Care, Custody, and Control. TOSHIBA at its
sole option and expense will be responsible to obtain additional inventory
insurance to cover any loss above [**23**] for goods under DAC's Care, Custody
and Control.

8.    RECORDS, AUDITS AND INSPECTIONS.

      8.1 TOSHIBA reserves the right to audit DAC's facilities once per year in
relation to this Agreement to verify performance of services defined herein
and/or to perform physical inventory counts or audits of Goods it handles on
TOSHIBA's behalf. TOSHIBA will perform said audits during DAC's normal business
hours. DAC shall fully cooperate with TOSHIBA employees and representatives in
this regard. All of such audits and inspections shall be at TOSHIBA's expense.

      8.2 DAC shall maintain accounting records during the term of this
Agreement and for three years thereafter, in a consistent form to substantiate
DAC's charges hereunder. TOSHIBA and its designated representatives shall have
the right to audit and review DAC's sales and customer credit records and all
other records relevant to the calculation of payments pursuant to this Agreement
once per year, except with respect to the Variable Fees described in Section
4.3.2 and 4.3.3 and those fees which cannot be disclosed because of contract
restrictions, as described in Section 4.3.9, upon reasonable prior notice,
during normal business hours, during the term of this Agreement and for one year
after completion of this Agreement. All fees and costs incurred by TOSHIBA in
connection with any such audit and review shall be paid by TOSHIBA, unless such
audit and review reveals that TOSHIBA was overcharged by more than 5% in which
event DAC shall reimburse TOSHIBA for the reasonable costs of such audit and
review. The foregoing shall not confer any rights for TOSHIBA to obtain or
require DAC to disclose third party information to TOSHIBA which DAC has
contractually agreed not to disclose.

9.    QUALITY ASSURANCE.

      DAC's quality assurance policy focuses on root cause corrective action and
continuous quality improvement concepts and methodology. DAC agrees to manage
distribution operations (returns processing) to documented process
specifications that meet standard TOSHIBA operational requirements. DAC's sales
and administration functions will comply with business rules and process

                                      -15-
<PAGE>   16

specifications approved by TOSHIBA. DAC agrees to monitor routinely all aspects
of the Program to ensure the highest level of quality.

10.   INSURANCE AND STATUTORY OBLIGATIONS.

      DAC shall, at its own expense, maintain during the term of this Agreement
or for such periods beyond said Term as specified herein at least the forms and
amounts of insurance set forth below.

            (1) Commercial general liability insurance, including contractual
      liability under DAC's indemnification, for bodily injury and property

      aggregate.

            (2) Worker's compensation insurance in such amounts as required by

      less than $500,000 per accident, $500,000 per policy limit, and $500,000

            (4) Fidelity bond or crime policy covering DAC's employees in the

      of Insurance" evidencing coverage requirements of this Section 10.

            (8) DAC will effect all insurance by valid and enforceable policies

                                      -16-
<PAGE>   17

            (9) DAC will cause the insurance, except for the insurance provided
      for in paragraph (ii) above, to be endorsed and name TOSHIBA, its
      officers, directors, and employees an additional insured as their interest
      may appear.

            (10) All insurance maintained by DAC may be carried under blanket
      policies.

            (11) DAC will cause the insurance to be subject to provisions to the

      canceled, reduced in coverage limits, or materially changed without first
      providing 30 days prior written notice from the insurance agent or broker
      to TOSHIBA.

            (12) With any proposed change to or replacement of any required
      insurance coverage, an amended Certificate of Insurance relating to such
      changed or replacement insurance coverage will be delivered by DAC to
      TOSHIBA at least 30 days prior to the effective date of such change or
      replacement.

            (13) Subject to Section 7.8.3, DAC shall keep the consigned Goods
      insured at the full market value thereof, less any deductible, against
      damage, destruction and loss of every kind while the Goods are in DAC's
      possession.

11.   WARRANTIES.

      11.1 TOSHIBA Products which have been sold through the Program on behalf
of TOSHIBA will be warranted by TOSHIBA in accordance with the end user warranty
documentation packaged within the TOSHIBA Products. DAC shall have sole
responsibility for any representations or warranty it makes to a customer to the
extent it differs from TOSHIBA's written end-user warranty documentation or
directions from TOSHIBA Authorized Signers.

      11.2 Products not manufactured by TOSHIBA, yet sold as a part of the
Program, will be warranted by the manufacturer in accordance with each
manufacturer's published coverage. Neither TOSHIBA nor DAC shall be required to
respond to requests for service with respect to such products other than to
provide specific telephone numbers for the Program customers to call.

      11.3 DAC warrants that the Program services will be performed in
accordance with Exhibit A and consistent with the highest professional
standards.

      11.4 DAC represents and warrants that it is the owner of the MAX system or
otherwise has the right to grant to TOSHIBA the access set forth in this
Agreement without violating any rights of any third party, and there is
currently no actual or threatened suit by any such third party based on an
alleged violation of such right by DAC. DAC will provide TOSHIBA at no
additional charge with standard maintenance and support for MAX, including new
releases, updates, changes,

                                      -17-
<PAGE>   18

modifications and/or enhancements which DAC elects to incorporate into and make
a part of MAX and which DAC elects to make available to its general customer
base.

      11.5 DAC warrants that the MAX software will meet the specifications of
the Program as described in Exhibit A. If the MAX software fails to meet the
foregoing warranty, DAC will at its option repair or replace such products or
provide corrective services at its own expense. The parties shall also negotiate
in good faith an operational warranty/performance metric for the MAX software,
including a penalty for failure to meet the warranty/metric. In the event the
parties cannot mutually agree upon the terms of such warranty/metric and penalty
within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date, TOSHIBA may, in its sole
discretion, extend the time for such negotiations or terminate this Agreement
without further liability.

      11.6 TOSHIBA MAKES NO WARRANTIES TO DAC WITH RESPECT TO TOSHIBA PRODUCTS
OR THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS SOLD THROUGH THE PROGRAM. EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY
PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
BY DAC OR TOSHIBA INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TOSHIBA AND DAC EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES NOT
STATED OR REFERRED TO HEREIN.

12.   DEFAULT AND TERMINATION.

      12.1 Default. DAC shall be considered in default of this Agreement if work
peformed by DAC fails in any material way to conform to the requirements of this
Agreement, in which case TOSHIBA may at its option (i) request DAC to re-perform
such work at no additional charge to TOSHIBA , (ii) request a refund of time
paid for unacceptable work or free future hours mutually agreed upon between DAC
and TOSHIBA, or (iii) declare that such failure is an Event of Default as
defined in Section 3.4.

      12.2 Termination for Cause. TOSHIBA may terminate this Agreement upon an
Event of Default, for cause, by giving DAC 60 days written notice, provided that
TOSHIBA may immediately terminate this Agreement if an Event of Default, as
defined in Section 3.4(b), occurs to DAC or Parent. DAC may terminate this
Agreement upon material breach by TOSHIBA, for cause, by giving TOSHIBA 60 days
written notice. During the notice period, the terminating party shall give, if
it has not already done so, the other party reasonable opportunity to cure its
deficiencies in meeting its obligations under the Agreement. If a prior cure
period was not previously provided and the breaching party is able to cure its
deficiencies to the reasonable satisfaction of the terminating party, the
Agreement shall continue in effect as if no notice was given.

      12.3 Termination After a Change in Control. TOSHIBA may terminate this
Agreement after a Change in Control by giving DAC 45 days written notice.

                                      -18-
<PAGE>   19

      12.4 Reimbursement upon Termination. TOSHIBA makes no guarantees, express
or implied, regarding the profitability of any business that DAC may expect from
TOSHIBA as a result of this Agreement. Upon the expiration or termination of the
Program, DAC shall, at the request of TOSHIBA, assign to TOSHIBA, and TOSHIBA
may assume any leases of personal property made on behalf of the Program. Unless
this Agreement is terminated for Cause pursuant to Section 12.2, upon the
expiration or termination of this Agreement, TOSHIBA shall reimburse DAC for all
non-depreciated capital expenditures made on behalf of the Program, and to the
extent contemplated in Section 4.2.1, shall pay and indemnify DAC against all
real and personal property leases incurred in connection with the Program. Upon
such assumption and reimbursement all leased or owned personal property with
respect to which such payments were made shall become the property of TOSHIBA.
If TOSHIBA decides to dispose of any of such property, DAC shall be given the
opportunity to participate as a potential buyer in connection with any such
sale, but TOSHIBA shall not be obligated to give DAC any preference in
connection with any such sale.

13.   FORCE MAJEURE.

      Neither party shall be liable or responsible for any failure to comply
with any provision of this Agreement to the extent any such failure is caused
directly or indirectly by fire; earthquake; natural disaster; adverse weather
conditions; strike, union, or other labor problems; war (whether or not
declared); riot; insurrection; government restrictions; or other acts or other
causes beyond the control of or without fault on the part of such party;
provided, however, that the performance of a party shall not be excused as a
result of a lack of financial resources or strike, union, or other labor
problems occurring with respect to its own employees or work force. Upon the
occurrence of any event of the type referred to herein, such party shall give
prompt notice thereof to the other party, together with a description of such
event and the duration for which such party expects its ability to comply with
the provisions of this Agreement to be affected thereby. Such party shall
thereafter devote its reasonable best efforts to remedy, to the extent possible,
the condition giving rise to such event and to resume performance of its
obligations hereunder as promptly as possible. In the event an event of the type
referred to herein prevents performance of a party's obligations for more than
45 days then the other party may immediately terminate this Agreement without
future liability.

14.   GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION

      DAC and TOSHIBA shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless, the other and
its employees, officers, directors and agents from and against all fines, suits,
proceedings, claims, demands, debts, obligations, liabilities or actions of any
kind by anyone (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) allegedly
arising from or connected with (i) violations by the indemnifying party of any
law, ordinance, rule or regulation of the United States or any state or city or
other governmental body, (ii) the indemnifying party's actions or omissions in
connection with this Agreement, (iii) any breach of a representation or warranty
by or any breach or default in the performance of any obligation of the
indemnifying party under the provisions of this Agreement, (iv) the negligence
of the indemnifying party, (v) the activities or operations of the indemnifying
party, its employees, officers, directors or agents, while it or any of them are
performing the indemnifying party's obligations under this

                                      -19-
<PAGE>   20

Agreement, and (vi) the employment relationship (including the termination
thereof) between DAC or TOSHIBA and any of its employees.

15.   LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

      EXCEPT FOR A BREACH OF SECTION 18 BELOW, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BY
LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING LOST SALES OR LOST
PROFITS), TO ANYONE ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF THE GOODS, EVEN
IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE OPERATION OF THIS LIMITATION SHALL NOT IMPEDE
OR OTHERWISE LIMIT EITHER PARTY'S PERFORMANCE OF THE THIRD PARTY INDEMNIFICATION
OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 14 AND 17 HEREOF.

16.   TRADEMARKS AND RELATED MATTERS.

      16.1 TOSHIBA will furnish DAC with the TOSHIBA guidelines for the use of
its trademarks or trade names in connection with this Agreement. The TOSHIBA
Corporate Communications Department shall be the sole source for DAC of TOSHIBA
logo artwork. No other source will be considered approved pursuant to this
Agreement.

      16.2 DAC is authorized to use the TOSHIBA logo and trademark only to the
extent necessary to meet the required Program service specifications and only in
accordance with TOSHIBA's guidelines. No other rights with respect to the
trademarks, service marks, trade names or brand names of either TOSHIBA or DAC
are conferred on the other party, either expressly or by implication, by this
Agreement.

      16.3 TOSHIBA and DAC recognize the other party's ownership of and title to
its respective trademarks, service marks, trade names and brand names, and the
goodwill attaching thereto, and agrees that any goodwill which accrues because
of the other party's use of the trademarks, service marks, trade names or brand
names, or because of any other activity involving the promotion of the other
party's products or services, will vest in and become the property of the owner.
Each party agrees not to contest or take any action to contest the other party's
trademarks, service marks or trade names or to use, employ or attempt to
register any trademark, service mark or trade name which is confusingly or
deceptively similar to the other party's trademarks, service marks or trade
names.

      16.4 Permission granted relative to the trademarks, service marks, trade
names or brand names of the other party shall terminate with the expiration or
termination of this Agreement. Both parties immediately shall cease approved use
of the trademarks, service marks, trade names and brand names of the other party
upon expiration or termination of this Agreement.

17.   DEFENSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS.

      Without limiting the generality of Section 14, TOSHIBA will defend,
indemnify and hold harmless DAC against a claim that TOSHIBA Products or TOSHIBA
Materials infringe any United States intellectual property rights of a third
party, including any patent or copyright, and will pay resulting costs, damages
and attorneys' fees finally awarded by a court, provided that (i) DAC promptly
notifies TOSHIBA in writing of the claim; (ii) TOSHIBA has sole control of the
defense and all related settlement discussions; and (iii) DAC cooperates with
TOSHIBA, at TOSHIBA's expense, in the defense of such claim.

      If the TOSHIBA Products or TOSHIBA Materials or the operation thereof
become, or in the opinion of TOSHIBA are likely to become, the subject of such a
claim, DAC will permit TOSHIBA, at the sole option and expense of TOSHIBA,
either to procure the right for DAC to continue marketing and selling the
TOSHIBA Products or to replace or modify them so that they become
non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing alternatives is available on terms
which are reasonable, in the sole judgment of TOSHIBA, DAC will return the
TOSHIBA Products upon written request by TOSHIBA, at TOSHIBA's expense.

      TOSHIBA shall have no liability for any claim to the extent it is based
upon the combination, operation or use of any TOSHIBA Product supplied hereunder
with equipment, data or programming not supplied by TOSHIBA, or based upon any
alteration or modification of TOSHIBA Products.

      Without limiting the generality of Section 14, DAC will defend, indemnify
and hold harmless TOSHIBA against any claim that (a) the MAX system, (b) all
other software and tools owned, developed or otherwise used by DAC in connection
with performing the Program services, and (c) any work product delivered to
TOSHIBA (except for text, pictures, sound, graphics, video and other data
supplied by TOSHIBA and integrated into the work product) in connection with the
Accessories Website, infringes on any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret
or other intellectual property right, including without limitation business
process patents that may include MAX as part of a business software solution,
and will pay resulting costs, damages, and attorney's fees finally awarded by a
court, provided that (i) TOSHIBA promptly notifies DAC in writing of the claim;
(ii) DAC has sole control of the defense and all related settlement discussions;
and (iii) TOSHIBA cooperates with DAC, at DAC's expense, in the defense of such
claims.

      If any of the foregoing is likely to become, the subject of such a claim,
TOSHIBA will permit DAC, at the sole option and expense of DAC, either to
procure the right for TOSHIBA to continue using such items, or to replace or
modify the items so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing
alternatives is available on terms which are reasonable, in the sole judgment of
TOSHIBA, TOSHIBA may terminate this Agreement without further liability.

      DAC shall have no liability for any claim to the extent it is based upon
the combination, operation or use of the MAX system or any of the other
foregoing items by TOSHIBA with any other software except for software which is
contemplated for use in connection with the Program, or based

                                      -21-
<PAGE>   22

upon any alteration or modification of the MAX system or any of the other
foregoing items that has not been authorized in writing by DAC.

      THE FOREGOING STATES THE ENTIRE OBLIGATION OF BOTH PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS.

18.   CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

      18.1 Generally, each of the parties understands that, during the term of
this Agreement, it will encounter certain confidential and proprietary
information belonging to the other party. TOSHIBA's information will relate
primarily to its customer list and sales databases, as developed and expanded
pursuant to this Agreement, products, pricing, and manufacturing techniques and
arrangements. DAC's information, on the other hand, will be in the nature of its
electronic fulfillment system, processes and related business rules, software,
and specific manuals and instructions to its employees relating to its direct
sales and related operations, including without limitation modifications to such
software, manuals and instructions during the term of this Agreement.

      18.2 DAC acknowledges that the confidential information, including without
limitation, customer lists, customer data and database information, information
about products, and patented and copyrighted materials, owned, licensed or
developed by TOSHIBA, whether or not registered, published, confidential or
suitable for registration or copyright, and the goodwill associated with them,
are and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of TOSHIBA, and that all of
the foregoing made available to DAC are provided or revealed to DAC in trust and
confidence. All information and knowledge about TOSHIBA and its products,
services, standards, specifications, and pricing, which are not in the public
domain, previously known by DAC or generally known in the industry, and such
other information and material as TOSHIBA may designate as confidential, shall
be deemed confidential for purposes of this Agreement. DAC agrees to keep all
such information confidential and to use it only for the purposes authorized by
TOSHIBA. DAC agrees that during and after the termination of this Agreement
neither DAC nor any of its agents or employees shall copy or disclose to any
other person, or use for any purpose other than as contemplated by this
Agreement, any confidential information received from TOSHIBA. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, DAC acknowledges that all of TOSHIBA's customer
data and database information is considered confidential and proprietary to
TOSHIBA and will not be shared with, or otherwise used by, any other Insight
Enterprises, Inc. company, DAC program or other entity.

      18.3 TOSHIBA acknowledges that the manuals, instructions, software,
electronic fulfillment system, processes and related business rules, and
copyrighted materials, owned, licensed or developed by DAC, whether or not
registered, published, confidential or suitable for registration or copyright,
and the goodwill associated with them, are and shall remain the sole and
exclusive property of DAC, and that all of the foregoing made available to
TOSHIBA are provided or revealed to TOSHIBA in trust and confidence. All
information and knowledge about DAC and its procedures, techniques, sales
methods and employee lists, which are not in the public domain or generally
known in the industry, and such other information and material as DAC may
designate as confidential, shall

                                      -22-
<PAGE>   23

be deemed confidential for purposes of this Agreement. TOSHIBA agrees to keep
all such information confidential and to use it only for the purposes authorized
by DAC. TOSHIBA agrees that during and after the termination of this Agreement
neither TOSHIBA nor any of its agents or employees shall copy or disclose to any
other person, or use for any purpose other than as contemplated by this
Agreement, any confidential information received from DAC.

      18.4 Either party may disclose confidential information to the other
either orally or in writing (including graphic material). When disclosed in
writing, the information shall be labeled "Confidential." When disclosed orally,
such information shall be identified as "Confidential" at the time of
disclosure. The party receiving any such oral information agrees to label
clearly "Confidential" all information reduced by it to writing as a result of
such oral disclosures.

      18.5 The parties acknowledge that by disclosing confidential information
to each other, they are not thereby granting any express, implied, or other
license or right to the disclosee under any patents or copyrights of the
disclosing party.

      18.6 Each party shall disclose the confidential information of the other
only to its employees or subcontractors having a specific need-to-know such
information for purposes related to the Program, and shall segregate such
information at all times from the confidential material of others so as to
prevent any commingling thereof. Generally, each party shall protect the
confidential information of the other party to the same extent it protects its
own confidential information, but in no event with less than a reasonable degree
of care.

      18.7 For a period of three years from the date of disclosure or receipt,
each party agrees to hold all the confidential information of the other in trust
and confidence for the other party and not to use such confidential information
other than for the benefit of the owner thereof, or make copies of such
confidential information without the permission of the other party. Upon
termination or expiration of this Agreement, each party shall return to the
other or destroy all written or descriptive matter, including drawings,
blueprints, manuals, descriptions, instructions, or other papers, documents,
tapes, disks or any other media which contain any such confidential information
of the other party.

      18.8 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, DAC may not solicit
TOSHIBA's customers for any purpose other than to fulfill its duties and
responsibilities hereunder. If a TOSHIBA customer contacts DAC directly and
requests additional services or information from DAC regarding products which
are not the subject matter of this Agreement, DAC may communicate with such
customer regarding such request. DAC or any of its affiliates may also contact
or solicit any customer who is also a customer of TOSHIBA so long as such
customer has been acquired as a customer or otherwise identified by DAC or any
of its affiliates independently of this Agreement.

      18.9 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each party agrees
that, without the express consent of the other party it will not solicit or
endeavor to entice away from the other party any employee except with the
express written consent of the other party. [**24**]

conditions of this Section 18 shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement for any reason.

19.   PUBLICITY.

      Each of the parties agrees that it will not make any public statement
regarding this Agreement or the Program without the written approval of the
other party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding

unenforceable, after the expiration of the time within which judicial review (if
permitted) of such determination may be perfected, (i) the invalid or
unenforceable term or provision shall be deemed replaced by a term or provision
that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention
of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision and (ii) the remaining terms
and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired.

                                HLM DESIGN, INC.
                             1998 STOCK OPTION PLAN

                           (As Amended June 13, 2000)

         1. Purposes of Plan. The purposes of the Plan, which shall be known as
the HLM Design, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan and is hereinafter referred to as
the "Plan", are (i) to provide incentives for key employees, directors,
consultants and other individuals providing services to HLM Design, Inc. (the
"Company") and its subsidiaries (within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), each of which is
referred to herein as a "Subsidiary") by encouraging their ownership of the
Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the Company (the "Stock") and (ii) to aid the
Company in retaining such key employees, directors, consultants and other
individuals upon whose efforts the Company's success and future growth depends,
and attracting other such employees, directors, consultants and other
individuals.

         2. Administration. The Plan shall be administered by a committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company (the "Committee"). The Committee shall be
appointed from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board
of Directors") and shall consist of not fewer than two of its members. Each
Committee member shall be a "non-employee director" within the meaning of Rule
16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Act"). In the event that no such Committee exists or is appointed, the powers
to be exercised by the Committee hereunder shall be exercised by the Board of
Directors.

         For purposes of administration, the Committee, subject to the terms of
the Plan, shall have plenary authority to establish such rules and procedures,
to make such determinations and interpretations, and to take such other
administrative actions, as it deems necessary or advisable. All determinations
and interpretations made by the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding
on all persons, including those granted options hereunder ("Optionees") and
their legal representatives and beneficiaries.

         Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the Committee may
impose such conditions on any options as may be required to satisfy the
requirements of Rule 16b-3 of the Act or Section 162(m) of the Code.

         The Committee shall hold its meetings at such times and places as it
may determine. A majority of its members shall constitute a quorum. All
determinations of the Committee shall be made by a majority of its members. Any
decision or determination reduced to writing and signed by all members shall be
as effective as if it had been made by a majority vote at a meeting duly called
and held. The Committee may appoint a secretary (who need not be a member of the
Committee). No member of the Committee shall be liable for any act or omission
with respect to such member's service on the Committee, if such member acts in
good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Company.

         3. Stock Available for Options. There shall be available for options
under the Plan a total of 265,000 shares of Stock, subject to any adjustments
which may be made pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof. Shares of Stock used for
purposes of the Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares, or previously
issued shares held in the treasury of the Company, or both. Shares of Stock
covered by options which have terminated or expired prior to exercise or which
have been tendered as payment upon exercise of other options pursuant to Section
5(c) shall be available for further option grants hereunder.

         4. Eligibility. Options under the Plan may be granted to key employees
of the Company or any Subsidiary, including officers or directors of the Company
or any Subsidiary, and to directors, consultants and other individuals providing
services to the Company or any Subsidiary. Options may be granted to eligible
employees whether or not they hold or have held options previously granted under
the Plan or otherwise granted or assumed by the Company. In selecting employees
for options, the Committee may take into consideration any factors it may deem
relevant, including its estimate of the employee's present and potential
contributions to the success of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Service as a
director, officer or consultant of or to the Company or any Subsidiary shall be
considered employment for purposes of the Plan (and the period of such service
shall be considered the period of employment for purposes of Section 5(d) of the
Plan); provided, however, that incentive stock options may be granted under the
Plan only to an individual who is an "employee" (as such term is used in Section
422 of the Code) of the Company or any Subsidiary.

         5. Terms and Conditions of Options. The Committee shall, in its
discretion, prescribe the terms and conditions of the options to be granted
hereunder, which terms and conditions need not be the same in each case, subject
to the following:

                  (a) Option Price. The price at which each share of Stock
         covered by an incentive stock option granted under the Plan may be
         purchased shall not be less than the fair market value per share of
         Stock on the date of grant of the option. In the case of any option
         intended to be an incentive stock option granted to an individual
         owning (directly or by attribution as provided in Section 424(d) of the
         Code), on the date of grant, stock possessing more than 10% of the
         total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or
         any Subsidiary (which individual shall hereinafter be referred to as a
         "10% Stockholder"), the price at which each share of Stock covered by
         the option may be purchased shall not be less than 110% of the fair
         market value per share of Stock on the date of grant of the option. The
         date of the grant of an option shall be the date specified by the
         Committee in its grant of the option. The price at which each share of
         Stock covered by an option granted under the Plan (but not as an
         incentive stock option) may be purchased shall be the price determined
         by the Committee, in its absolute discretion, to be suitable to attain
         the purposes of this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the price at
         which each share of Stock covered by an option that is not an incentive
         stock option shall in no event be less than 85% of the fair market
         value of the Stock on the date of grant of the option.

                  (b) Option Period. The period for exercise of an option shall
         in no event be more than ten years from the date of grant, or in the
         case of an option intended to be an incentive stock option granted to a
         10% Stockholder, more than five years from the date of grant. Options
         may, in the discretion of the Committee, be made exercisable in
         installments during the option period. Any shares not purchased on any
         applicable installment date may be purchased thereafter at any time
         before the expiration of the option period.

                  (c) Exercise of Options. In order to exercise an option, the
         Optionee shall deliver to the Company written notice specifying the
         number of shares of Stock to be purchased, together with cash or a
         certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company
         in the full amount of the purchase price therefor; provided that, for
         the purpose of assisting an Optionee to exercise an option, the Company
         may make loans to the Optionee or guarantee loans made by third parties
         to the Optionee, on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors
         may authorize; and provided further that such purchase price may be
         paid in shares of Stock, or in nonstatutory options granted under the
         Plan (provided, however, that the purchase price of Stock acquired
         under an incentive stock option may not be paid in options), in either
         case owned by the Optionee and having a market value on the date of
         exercise not less than the aggregate purchase price, or in any
         combination of cash, Stock and such options. For purposes of this
         Section 5(c), the market value per share of Stock shall be the last
         sale price regular way on the date of reference, or, in case no sales
         take place on such date, the average of the closing high bid and low
         asked prices regular way, in either case on the principal national
         securities exchange on which the Stock is listed or admitted to
         trading, or if the Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any
         national securities exchange, the last sale price reported on the
         National Market System of the National Association of Securities
         Dealers Automated Quotation system ("NASDAQ") on such date, or the
         average of the closing high bid and low asked prices of the Stock in
         the over-the-counter market reported on NASDAQ on such date, as
         furnished to the Committee by any New York Stock Exchange member
         selected from time to time by the Committee for such purpose. If there
         is no bid or asked price reported on any such date, the market value
         shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with the regulations
         promulgated under Section 2031 of the Code, or by any other appropriate
         method selected by the Committee. For purposes of this Section 5(c),
         the market value of an option granted under the Plan shall be the
         market value of the underlying Stock, determined as aforesaid, less the
         exercise price of the option. If the Optionee so requests, shares of
         Stock purchased upon exercise of an option may be issued in the name of
         the Optionee or another person. An Optionee shall have none of the
         rights of a stockholder until the shares of Stock are issued to him.

                  (d) Effect of Termination of Employment.

<PAGE>

                       (i) An option may not be exercised after the Optionee has
                  ceased to be in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary
                  for any reason other than the Optionee's death, Disability or
                  Involuntary Termination Without Cause. Any cessation of
                  employment, for purposes of incentive stock options only,
                  shall include any leave of absence in excess of 90 days unless
                  the Optionee's reemployment rights are guaranteed by law or by
                  contract. "Cause" shall mean any act, action or series of acts
                  or actions or any omission, omissions, or series of omissions
                  which result in, or which have the effect of resulting in, (i)
                  the commission of a crime by the Optionee involving moral
                  turpitude, which crime has a material adverse impact on the
                  Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) gross negligence or willful
                  misconduct which is continuous and results in material damage
                  to the Company or any Subsidiary, or (iii) the continuous,
                  willful failure of the person in question to follow the
                  reasonable directives of the Board of Directors. "Disability"
                  shall mean the inability or failure of a person to perform
                  those duties for the Company or any Subsidiary traditionally
                  assigned to and performed by such person because of the
                  person's then-existing physical or mental condition,
                  impairment or incapacity. The fact of disability shall be
                  determined by the Committee, which may consider such evidence
                  as it considers desirable under the circumstances, the
                  determination of which shall be final and binding upon all
                  parties. "Involuntary Termination Without Cause" shall mean
                  either (i) the dismissal of, or the request for the
                  resignation of, a person, by court order, order of any
                  court-appointed liquidator or trustee of the Company, or the
                  order or request of any creditors' committee of the Company
                  constituted under the federal bankruptcy laws, provided that
                  such order or request contains no specific reference to Cause;
                  or (ii) the dismissal of, or the request for the resignation
                  of, a person, by a duly constituted corporate officer of the
                  Company or any Subsidiary, or by the Board, for any reason
                  other than for Cause.

                       (ii) During the three months after the date of the
                  Optionee's Involuntary Termination Without Cause, the Optionee
                  shall have the right to exercise the options granted under the
                  Plan, but only to the extent the options were exercisable on
                  the date of the cessation of the Optionee's employment.

                       (iii) During the twelve months after termination of the
                  Optionee's employment with the Company or any Subsidiary as a
                  result of the Optionee's Disability, the Optionee shall have
                  the right to exercise the options granted under the Plan, but
                  only to the extent the options were exercisable on the date of
                  the cessation of the Optionee's employment.

                       (iv) In the event of the death of the Optionee while
                  employed or, in the event of the death of the Optionee after
                  cessation of employment described in subparagraph (ii) or
                  (iii) above, but within the three-month or twelve-month period
                  described in subparagraph (ii) or (iii) above, the option
                  shall be exercisable until the expiration of twelve months
                  following the Optionee's death. During such extended period,
                  the option may be exercised by the person or persons to whom
                  the deceased Optionee's rights under the option agreement
                  shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution,
                  but only to the extent the option was exercisable on the date
                  of the cessation of the Optionee's employment. The provisions
                  of the foregoing sentence shall apply to any outstanding
                  options which are incentive stock options to the extent
                  permitted by Section 422(d) of the Code and such outstanding
                  options in excess thereof shall, immediately upon the
                  occurrence of the event described in the preceding sentence,
                  be treated for all purposes of the Plan as nonstatutory stock
                  options and shall be immediately exercisable as such as
                  provided in the foregoing sentence.

                       In no event shall any option be exercisable beyond the
                  applicable exercise period provided in Section 5(b) of the
                  Plan. Nothing in the Plan or in any option granted pursuant to
                  the Plan (in the absence of an express provision to the
                  contrary) shall confer on any individual any right to continue
                  in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or interfere in
                  any way with the right of the Company or Subsidiary to
                  terminate the individual's employment at any time.

                       (e) Nontransferability of Options. Except as otherwise
                  set forth herein, during the lifetime of an Optionee, options
                  held by the Optionee shall be exercisable only by the
                  Optionee, and no option shall be transferable other than by
                  will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its
                  absolute discretion, grant nonstatutory stock options that are
                  transferable, subject to applicable law and the terms and
                  restrictions imposed by the option agreement or otherwise by
                  the Committee.

                       (f) Adjustments for Change in Stock Subject to Plan. In
                  the event of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split,
                  stock dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation,
                  rights offering or any other change in the corporate structure
                  or shares of the Company, corresponding adjustments
                  automatically shall be made to the number and kind of shares
                  available for issuance under this Plan and the number and kind
                  of shares and option price thereof covered by outstanding
                  options under this Plan.

                       (g) Acceleration of Exercisability of Options Upon
                  Occurrence of Certain Events. In connection with any merger or
                  consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving
                  corporation and which results in the holders of the
                  outstanding voting securities of the Company (determined
                  immediately prior to such merger or consolidation) owning less
                  than a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
                  surviving corporation (determined immediately following such
                  merger or consolidation), or any sale or transfer by the
                  Company of all or substantially all of its assets or any
                  tender offer or exchange offer for or the acquisition,
                  directly or indirectly, by any person or group of all or a
                  majority of the then-outstanding voting securities of the
                  Company, all outstanding options under the Plan shall become
                  exercisable in full, notwithstanding any other provision of
                  the Plan or of any outstanding options granted thereunder, on
                  and after (i) the fifteenth day prior to the effective date of
                  such merger, consolidation, sale, transfer or acquisition or
                  (ii) the date of commencement of such tender offer or exchange
                  offer, as the case may be. The provisions of the foregoing
                  sentence shall apply to any outstanding options which are
                  incentive stock options to the extent permitted by Section
                  422(d) of the Code and such outstanding options in excess
                  thereof shall, immediately upon the occurrence of the event
                  described in clause (i) or (ii) of the foregoing sentence, be
                  treated for all purposes of the Plan as nonstatutory stock
                  options and shall be immediately exercisable as such as
                  provided in the foregoing sentence. Notwithstanding the
                  foregoing, in no event shall any option be exercisable beyond
                  the applicable period of such option specified in Sections
                  5(b) and 5(d).

                       (h) Registration, Listing and Qualification of Shares of
                  Stock. Each option shall be subject to the requirement that if
                  at any time the Board of Directors shall determine that the
                  registration, listing or qualification of shares of Stock
                  covered thereby upon any securities exchange or under any
                  federal or state law, or the consent or approval of any
                  governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a
                  condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such
                  option or the purchase of shares of Stock thereunder, no such
                  option may be exercised unless and until such registration,
                  listing, qualification, consent or approval shall have been
                  effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to
                  the Board of Directors. The Company may require that any
                  person exercising an option shall make such representations
                  and agreements and furnish such information as it deems
                  appropriate to assure compliance with the foregoing or any
                  other applicable legal requirement.

                       (i) Other Terms and Conditions. The Committee may impose
                  such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the
                  terms hereof, on the grant or exercise of options, as it deems
                  advisable.

                       (j) Reload Options. If upon the exercise of an option
                  granted under the Plan (the "Original Option") the Optionee
                  pays the purchase price for the Original Option pursuant to
                  Section 5(c) in whole or in part in shares of Stock owned by
                  the Optionee for at least six months, the Company shall grant
                  to the Optionee on the date of such exercise an additional
                  option under the Plan (the "Reload Option") to purchase that
                  number of shares of Stock equal to the number of shares of
                  Stock so held for at least six months transferred to the
                  Company in payment of the purchase price in the exercise of
                  the Original Option. The price at which each share of Stock
                  covered by the Reload Option may be purchased shall be the
                  market value per share of Stock (as specified in Section 5(c))
                  on the date of exercise of the Original Option. The Reload
                  Option shall not be exercisable until one year after the date
                  the Reload Option is granted or after the expiration date of
                  the Original Option. Upon the payment of the purchase price
                  for a Reload Option granted hereunder in whole or in part in
                  shares of Stock held for more than six months pursuant to
                  Section 5(c), the Optionee is entitled to receive a further
                  Reload Option in accordance with this Section 5(j). Shares of
                  Stock covered by a Reload Option shall not reduce the number
                  of shares of Stock available under the Plan pursuant to
                  Section 3.

         6. Additional Provisions Applicable to Incentive Stock Options. The
Committee may, in its discretion, grant options under the Plan to eligible
employees which constitute "incentive stock options" within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code, provided, however, that (a) the aggregate market value
of the Stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for
the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed the
limitation set forth in Section 422(d) of the Code and (b) Section 5(d)(ii)
hereof shall not apply to any incentive stock option.

         7. Effectiveness of Plan. The Plan be effective when it is adopted and
approved by the Board of Directors, provided that the Plan is approved within
twelve months before or after such adoption by a majority of the votes cast
thereon by the stockholders of the Company at a meeting of stockholders duly
called and held for such purpose or by unanimous written consent of such
stockholders, and no option granted hereunder shall be exercisable prior to such
approval.

         8. Amendment and Termination. The Board of Directors may at any time
amend the Plan or the term of any option outstanding under the Plan; provided,
however, that, except as contemplated in Section 5(f), the Board of Directors
shall not, without approval by a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders
of the Company at a meeting of stockholders at which a proposal to amend the
Plan is voted upon, (i) increase the maximum number of shares of Stock for which
options may be granted under the Plan, or (ii) except as otherwise provided in
the Plan, amend the requirements as to the class of employees eligible to
receive options. Unless the Plan shall theretofore have been terminated as
hereinafter provided, the Plan shall terminate, and no option shall be granted
hereunder, after ten years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board of
Directors or approved by the stockholders as described in Section 7, whichever
first occurs; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may at any time
prior to that date terminate the Plan. No amendment or termination of the Plan
or any option outstanding under the Plan may, without the consent of an
Optionee, adversely affect the rights of such Optionee under any option held by
such Optionee.

         9. Withholding. It shall be a condition to the obligation of the
Company to issue shares of Stock upon exercise of an option that the Optionee
(or any beneficiary or person entitled to act under Section 5(d) hereof) pay to
the Company, upon its demand, such amount as may be requested by the Company for
the purpose of satisfying any taxes. If the amount requested is not paid, the
Company may refuse to issue such shares of Stock.

         10. Other Actions. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to
limit the authority of the Company to exercise its corporate rights and powers,
including, but not by way of limitation, the right of the Company to grant or
assume options for proper corporate purposes other than under the Plan with
respect to any employee or other person, firm, corporation or association.
