2.       SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THIS AGREEMENT

         2.1 Registrable Securities. The securities entitled to the benefit of
this Agreement (the "Registrable Securities") are (a) all Shares issued on
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, and (b) all Shares
received as share dividends or Shares issued on stock splits, mergers,
consolidations or other reorganizations with respect to the Shares referred to
in the preceding clauses, provided that a Share will be a Registrable Security
only for so long as such Share continues to be a Restricted Security. A
Registrable Security shall be a Restricted Security until it has been
effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance
with the Registration Statement covering it, or, if earlier, until it is
eligible to be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume
limitation, unless such limitation results solely from the Holders status as an
affiliate of the Company.

         2.2 Holders of Registrable Securities. No person will be considered a
Holder other than the Holders set forth on the signature page hereto, their
successors or assigns.

3.       RESALE REGISTRATION

         3.1 Request. At any time and from time to time, one or more Holders
representing the Requisite Percentage of Outstanding Holders will have the right
pursuant to this Section 3.1 to request a registration of all or a portion of
the Registrable Securities pursuant to a resale Registration Statement. Each
such request under this Section 3.1 (a "Request") will specify the number of
Registrable Securities that each Holder intends to sell (subject to adjustment
on the terms contemplated by the Convertible Securities). Upon receipt of a
Request pursuant to this Section 3.1, Company will cause to be filed, within
thirty (30) days of the date of delivery to Company of the Request, a resale
Registration Statement covering the sale of such Registrable Securities and will
use its best efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective by
the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter. Company will not be required to
effect more than one registration pursuant to this Section 3.1. In the event
that a Registration requested pursuant to this Section 3 fails to become
effective or if a stop order shall have been issued or the Registration shall
have been terminated prior to the sale of the Registrable Securities (other than
as a result of revocation by the Holders), a Request for Registration will be
deemed not to have been made for purposes of this Section 3.

         3.2 Postponement for Certain Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Company may postpone the filing and/or effectiveness of a Registration Statement
(for one or more periods not exceeding 30 days in the aggregate in any 365-day
period) if the Board of Directors of Company in good faith determines that the
filing, effectiveness, and/or distribution of the Registrable

                                        3
<PAGE>

Securities will (a) adversely interfere with a public offering by Company or
with a financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or similar corporate
transaction or (b) require the disclosure of material, non-public information,
that in the judgment of the Board of Directors of Company would be detrimental
to Company if so disclosed, in either case whether the Request is received by
Company prior to, during or subsequent to the closing of any such offering or
corporate transaction.

         3.3 Piggyback Securities. In the event that Company is required to file
a Registration Statement covering any Registered Securities pursuant to Section
3.1, Company will be permitted to include newly-issued securities ("Piggyback
Securities") in such registration.

4.       PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION

         4.1 Notice of Proposed Registration. Each time that Company proposes
for any reason to register any of its Shares under the Securities Act including
as a result of Request (a "Proposed Registration"), on Form SB-2, S-1, S-2 or
S-3 or any similar or successor forms, Company will promptly give written notice
of such Proposed Registration to Holders and will offer the Holders the right to
request inclusion of all or a portion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in
the Proposed Registration. No registration pursuant to this Section 4.1 will
relieve Company of its obligation to register Shares pursuant to Section 3. Each
Holder will have ten (10) Trading Days from the receipt of such notice to
deliver a written request specifying the number of such Registrable Securities
that such Holder intends to sell and such Holder's intended method of
disposition. In the event that the Proposed Registration by Company is, in whole
or in part, an Underwritten Offering, any request under Section 4.2 must specify
that the Registrable Securities be included in the underwriting on the same
terms and conditions as the Shares, if any, otherwise being sold through
underwriters under such Proposed Registration. Company will not be required to
effect more than five registrations pursuant to this Section 4.

         4.2 Allocation. Upon receipt of a written request pursuant to Section
4.1 hereof, Company will promptly use its best efforts to cause all such
Registrable Securities to be registered under the Securities Act, to the extent
required to permit sale or disposition as set forth in the written request.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter(s) of any Proposed
Registration determines and advises in writing that the inclusion of all
Registrable Securities proposed to be included in the Underwritten Offering
together with any other issued and outstanding Shares proposed to be included
therein by other stockholders would interfere with the successful marketing of
Company's Shares (or any Shares being sold by any other stockholder with demand
registration rights), then Company will not be required to register any
Registrable Securities in excess of the amount, if any, of Registrable
Securities which the managing underwriter(s) of such Underwritten Offering will
reasonably and in good faith agree to include in such offering in excess of any
amount to be registered for Company (or such stockholder with demand
registration rights); and provided, further, that if any Registrable Securities
are not included for this reason, any such reduction in the number of
Registrable Securities will be pro rata with any reduction in the number of
Shares sought to be included in the registration by such other stockholders with
similar "piggyback" registration rights.

                                        8
<PAGE>

officers and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
such Holder against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses,
fines and penalties (or actions in respect thereof) (including reasonable
attorney's fees and disbursements) caused by (a) any violation of law by Company
in connection with or any breach by Company of its undertakings hereunder or (b)
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, Prospectus,
preliminary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or
alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are
caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to Company by
such Holder expressly for use therein or by such Holder's failure to deliver a
copy of the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto after Company has furnished such Holder with a sufficient number of
copies of the same. Company will also indemnify underwriters, selling brokers,
dealer-managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in
the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such
persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to substantially the same
extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of
Registrable Securities, if requested.

         7.2 Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. In connection
with the Registration, each Holder of Registrable Securities will furnish to
Company in writing such information and affidavits as Company reasonably
requests in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus and agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, Company,
its directors and officers and each Person who controls Company (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements) resulting
from any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement thereto,
or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration
Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only the extent, that such
untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so
furnished in writing by such Holder to Company specifically for inclusion in
such Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or
supplement thereto, provided that no selling Holder will be required under this
Section 7.2 to pay an amount greater than the dollar amount of the proceeds
received by such selling Holder (net of underwriting commissions and discounts)
with respect to the sale of the Shares giving rise to the claim and the
liability of selling Holders will be several and not joint. Company will be
entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers,
dealer-managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in
the distribution, to the same extent as provided above or otherwise as agreed to
by Company and such Person with respect to information so furnished in writing
by such Person specifically for the inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration
Statement.

         7.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to
indemnification hereunder will (a) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party
of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (b) permit such
indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claims with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party, provided, however,

                                        9
<PAGE>

that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will have the right to
employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claims, but
the fees and expense of such counsel will be at the expense of such Person
unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or
(b) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such claim and
employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person, or (c) in the reasonable
judgment of any such Person, based upon advice of its counsel, a conflict of
interest may exist between such Person and the indemnifying party, in any of
which events such reasonable fees and expenses will be borne by the indemnifying
party and the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense
of such action on behalf of the indemnified party, it being understood, however,
that the indemnifying party will not, in connection with any such action or
proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or
proceedings arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be
liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of
attorneys for all Holders. Anything in this Section to the contrary
notwithstanding, Company will not be liable for any settlement of any such claim
or action effected without its written consent.

         7.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 7.1
and 7.2 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to or unenforceable by the
indemnified party in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs,
expenses, fines or penalties referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in
lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid
or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages
liabilities, costs, expenses, fines or penalties in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and
indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, fines or penalties, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any action in question including any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of material fact or omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by,
such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such action. The amount paid or payable by a party, as a result of the losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, fines and penalties referred to
above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 7, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party
in connection with any investigation or proceeding. Company and the Holders
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 7.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations
referred to above. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution
from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

8.       PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS.

         No Holder may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder
unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder's securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by Company and (b) completes
and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements, provided that no selling Holder of Registrable Securities in any
Underwritten Registration will be required to make any representation or

         10.2 Modification and Waiver. No terms and provisions of this
Agreement, including without limitation the terms and provisions contained in
this sentence, will be waived, modified or altered so as to impose any
additional obligations or liability or grant any additional right or remedy and

which it is, intended to be so effective. No assent, express or implied, by any
party, or waiver by any party, to or of any breach of any term or provision of
this Agreement will be deemed to be an assent or waiver to or of such or any
succeeding breach of the same or any other such term or provision. This
Agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived only upon the written
agreement of the Company and the holders of not less than a majority of the
shares of Registrable Securities (treating all of the Convertible Securities as
having been converted at the conversion price then in effect).

         10.3 Partial Invalidity. It is the intention of the parties that the
provisions of this Agreement will be enforceable to the fullest extent
permissible under applicable law, and that the unenforceability of any provision
or provisions of this Agreement by such law will not render unenforceable, or

determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any valid Act of Congress
or act of any legislature or by any regulation duly promulgated by the United
States or a state acting in accordance with the law, or declared null and void
by any court of competent jurisdiction, then

                                       12
<PAGE>

event, the remaining parts of this Agreement will be fully effective and
operative insofar as reasonably possible.

         10.4 Assignment; Successors. This Agreement is not assignable in whole
or in part by either party without the prior written consent of the other party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company may assign this Agreement to a successor,
Affiliate or parent company without the consent of the Holders provided that any
such assignment will not release Company from its obligations hereunder. This
Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

         10.5 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement
is intend to confer any benefit under this Agreement on anyone other than a
party hereto or any Holder.

         10.6 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby will be construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of Delaware without regard to the conflict of law provisions
thereof. Jurisdiction and venue for litigation of any dispute, controversy or
claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement will be only in a
United States federal court or a Delaware State court having subject matter
jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereby expressly submits to the personal
jurisdiction of the foregoing courts located in Delaware, and waives any
objection or defense based on personal jurisdiction or venue that might
otherwise be asserted to proceedings in such courts.

         10.7 Jury Waiver. COMPANY AND HOLDERS HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO
THIS AGREEMENT.

         10.8 Termination. All of Company's obligations to register Registrable
Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) such
time as all Registrable Securities held by or issuable to the Holders may be
sold under Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period; or (ii) the seventh
anniversary of the date of this Agreement. Until the Shares are eligible for
resale by the Holders without registration pursuant to Rule 144(k), in order to
make available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of
the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Shares to the public
without registration, Company agrees to: (a) make and keep public information
available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the
Securities Act; and (b) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely
manner all reports and other documents required of Company under the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act.

         10.9 No Inconsistent Agreements. Company will not on or after the date
of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which
conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders of
Registrable Securities hereunder do not conflict with any existing rights
granted to existing holders of Company securities under any other agreements,
except that certain existing holders of Company securities may have registration
rights which may provide priority to such existing holders in the event of
cut-backs of the securities to be included in certain registrations.

                              CONSULTING AGREEMENT
                              --------------------

            This agreement ("Agreement") entered into and made effective as of
May 21, 2004 (the "Effective Date"), by and between CDKNET.COM, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") and Andreas Typaldos ("Consultant").

                                   WITNESSETH
                                   ----------

            WHEREAS, the parties have agreed to establish a business
relationship in which Consultant will provide services to the Company upon the
terms and conditions specified herein.

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and the
mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

         1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
            -----------------

            a. Engagement; Services. The Company hereby engages Consultant, and
Consultant accepts such engagement, to provide certain services to the Company
as shall be reasonably assigned to him by the Company from time to time. The
services to be provided by Consultant as set forth above are hereinafter
referred to as "Services."

         2. COMPENSATION
            ------------

            a. Compensation. For satisfactory performance of the Services, and
as full and complete consideration for the rendition of the Services and
ownership of all rights thereto, the Company agrees to pay Consultant a monthly
fee of $15,000, provided such fees will be accrued and not paid until the
Company has secured at least $1 million of equity financing after May 21, 2004 .

            b. If at any time within 3 years after the date of this Agreement,
the Company is the subject of a dispositive transaction such as (i) a merger or
consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities resulting in a
change in control of the Company; (ii) the sale, lease or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the Company's assets; (iii) a sale of shares of the
Company's capital stock constituting at least 50% of the outstanding shares of
capital stock, and the aggregate consideration received by the Company, or by
the shareholders of the Company, as the case may be, is at least $200,000,000,
then the Company shall pay a fee to Consultant in the amount which is ten
percent (10%) of the aggregate consideration received in such transaction. If
the consideration is payable in shares of stock or other property, then the fee
due to Consultant shall be payable in kind, valued on the same basis as the
consideration is valued in such transaction. The fee shall be payable
concurrently with the closing of such transaction.

         3. TERM OF AGREEMENT
            -----------------

            a. Term. This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective
Date and continue for three (3) years thereafter (the "Term").

Agreement at any time by providing the Company with 10 days' prior written
notice thereof.

         4. OWNERSHIP OF WORK PRODUCT

and all rights therein generated by Consultant as a result of performing the
Services hereunder, together with any intellectual property right, including,
but not limited to, patent, trade secret and copyright related thereto, shall be
solely owned by and shall vest immediately in the Company without any
reservation of any right by Consultant. The parties expressly acknowledge that
such work was ordered or commissioned by the Company, and further agree that all
such work shall be considered a work made for hire within the meaning of the
copyright laws of the United States and that the Company is entitled to the
copyrights and all other rights therein, throughout the world, including, but
not limited to, the right to make changes therein and such uses thereof as the
Company may in its sole discretion determine.

            b. Grant of Rights. If for any reason whatsoever, any work product
generated by Consultant as a result of performing the Services hereunder, is not
considered a work for hire within the meaning of the copyright laws of the
United States, then Consultant hereby grants and assigns to the Company, its
successors and assigns, all of its right, title and interest in and to the work,
including, but not limited to, the exclusive rights specified by 17 U.S.C.
section 106 as in effect and hereafter amended (and any renewal, extension or
reversion of copyrights now or hereafter provided), therein, throughout the
world, and all other rights therein of any nature whatsoever, whether now known
or hereafter devised.

            c. Reasonable Assistance. Consultant shall provide the Company and
any entity designated by the Company, reasonable assistance, at Consultant's
expense, required to perfect the rights granted to the Company in this
Agreement. This assistance includes, but is not limited to, obtaining from
personnel who are not employees of Consultant but who will be engaged by
Consultant to assist Consultant in performing its obligations hereunder, prior
to providing such assistance, an assignment to the Company of all of such
parties' right, title and interest in such work, including but not limited to,
the exclusive rights specified by 17 U.S.C. section 106 as in effect and
hereafter amended (and any renewal, extension or reversion of copyrights now or
hereafter provided), therein, throughout the world, and all other rights therein
of any nature whatsoever, whether now known or hereafter devised.

            d. All tangible materials and intellectual property, including, but
not limited to, trade secrets, ideas, discoveries or inventions developed or
conceived by Consultant in the course of rendering the Services shall be the
property of the Company, and Consultant shall not challenge or dispute the
Company's ownership thereof.

            The provisions of this Article, 4. OWNERSHIP OF WORK PRODUCT, shall
survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

            a. Confidential or Proprietary Information. Consultant shall hold
confidential and shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, or use
for the benefit of itself or any third party, any "Confidential or Proprietary
Information" of the Company, without first having obtained the Company's written
consent to such disclosure or use. "Confidential or Proprietary Information"
shall mean any and all information disclosed to, or otherwise acquired or
observed by, Consultant from the Company, relating to any confidential
information revealed to Consultant in connection with this Agreement. Consultant
shall permit access to Confidential or Proprietary Information only to those
individuals that prior to access have signed a statement acknowledging his or
her familiarity with this Article 5 and by signing such acknowledgment shall
recognize that the Company, which would be irreparably injured by reason of any
unauthorized use or disclosure, shall have a direct right of action against him
or her, and his/her present and future employer, and consents to be injunctive
restraint in addition to money damages for any unauthorized use or disclosure.
This restriction shall not apply if the information shall have become public
knowledge without fault on the part of Consultant (or any third party under no
such obligation of confidentiality) or to disclosures required by applicable
law.

            b. Return of Data. Consultant shall immediately return to the
Company any and all Confidential or Proprietary Information (and any copies
thereof in Consultant's possession or control) which may have been in tangible
form, as the Company may from time to time request.

            The provisions of this Article, 5. CONFIDENTIALITY: RETURN OF DATA,
shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

         6. NON-COMPETITION; NON-DISPARAGEMENT
            ----------------------------------

            a. Consultant, during the Term and for a period of twelve (12)
months thereafter, shall not, directly or indirectly, as an individual
proprietor, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, director, joint venturer,
investor, lender, consultant or in any capacity whatsoever, engage in any
business activity that is competitive in any way with the business activity of
the Company or any of its affiliates or any activity that is under development
or active and serious consideration for development by the Company and is
reasonably likely to develop during the Term into a material portion of the
Company's overall business within the United States and any other geographical
area in which the Company or any of its affiliates engage in such business.
Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from: (i) a passive ownership
interest of not more than five percent (5%) of the total outstanding stock of a
publicly held company; or (ii) engaging in any activity with the prior written
consent of the Company's board of directors.

            b. Consultant agrees that during the Term and for a period
thereafter of twelve (12) months the Consultant shall not, directly or
indirectly, either for himself or for any other person or entity: (i) hire,
retain, recruit, solicit or induce any: (A) non-clerical employee of the Company
or any affiliate, to terminate (or otherwise reduce) their relationship with the
Company or any affiliate or (B) former non-clerical employee whose employment
with the Company or any affiliate terminated within six (6) months of such
solicitation or contact, for the purpose of employing or making use of the
services of such individual; (ii) solicit or induce any person or entity
(including, without limitation, any customer or supplier) to terminate, or
otherwise to cease, reduce, or diminish in any way its relationship (or
prospective relationship) with the Company or any affiliate; or (iii) make any
disparaging statements concerning the Company or

                                       3
<PAGE>

any affiliate or their officers, directors or employees, to the public or any
vendor, supplier, customer, distributor, employee, consultant or other business
associate of the Company or affiliate.

            c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a court holds that
the restrictions provided herein are unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable
under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum
period, scope or geographic area determined to be reasonable under such
circumstances by such court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or
area provided herein.

            d. In the event of a breach or potential breach of this Section 6,
the Consultant acknowledges that the Company and its affiliates will be caused
irreparable injury and that money damages may not be an adequate remedy and
agree that the Company and its affiliates shall be entitled to injunctive relief
(in addition to its other remedies at law) to have the provisions of this
Section 6 enforced.

         7. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
            ----------------------

            a. Independent Contractor Status. Consultant is retained by the
Company solely for the purposes and to the extent set forth in this Agreement,

relationship to the Company shall, during the period of Consultant's rendering
of the Services hereunder, be that of an independent contractor.

         8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
