      THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of January

corporation,  with its  principal  office  located  at 108 West  Stewart  Street
Puyallup,  Washington (the "Company"),  and the undersigned  investors (each, an
"Investor" and collectively, the "Investors").

      WHEREAS:

      A. In connection with the Securities  Purchase  Agreement by and among the
parties hereto of even date herewith (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"),  the
Company  has  agreed,  upon the  terms  and  subject  to the  conditions  of the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement,  to  issue  and sell to the  Investors  secured
convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures") which shall be convertible
into that number of shares of the Company's  common  stock,  par value $.001 per
share (the "Common  Stock"),  pursuant to the terms of the  Securities  Purchase
Agreement for an aggregate  purchase price of up to Three Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($350,000).  Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning
ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

      B. To induce the Investors to execute and deliver the Securities  Purchase
Agreement,  the Company has agreed to provide certain  registration rights under
the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  and the rules and  regulations  there
under, or any similar  successor  statute  (collectively,  the "1933 Act"),  and
applicable state securities laws.

      NOW, THEREFORE,  in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
contained  herein and other good and  valuable  consideration,  the  receipt and
sufficiency  of which are hereby  acknowledged,  the Company  and the  Investors
hereby agree as follows:

      1. DEFINITIONS.

      As used in this  Agreement,  the following  terms shall have the following
meanings:

            (a) "Person" means a corporation,  a limited liability  company,  an
association,  a partnership,  an  organization,  a business,  an  individual,  a
governmental or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

            (b)  "Register,"   "registered,"  and  "registration"   refer  to  a
registration   effected  by  preparing  and  filing  one  or  more  Registration
Statements  (as defined  below) in compliance  with the 1933 Act and pursuant to
Rule 415  under  the 1933  Act or any  successor  rule  providing  for  offering
securities on a continuous or delayed basis ("Rule 415"), and the declaration or
ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement(s) by the United States
Securities and Exchange SEC (the "SEC").

                                       1
<PAGE>

            (c)  "Registrable  Securities"  means the  shares  of  Common  Stock
issuable to Investors upon conversion of the Convertible  Debentures pursuant to
the Securities Purchase Agreement.

            (d)  "Registration  Statement" means a registration  statement under
the 1933 Act which covers the Registrable Securities.

      2. REGISTRATION.

            (a)  Subject  to the terms and  conditions  of this  Agreement,  the
Company  shall  prepare  and file,  no later than thirty (30) days from the date
hereof (the "Scheduled Filing Deadline"),  with the SEC a registration statement
on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or, if the Company is then eligible, on Form S-3) under the
1933 Act (the "Initial  Registration  Statement") for the  registration  for the
resale by all  Investors who purchased  Convertible  Debentures  pursuant to the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement of Common Stock to be issued upon  conversion of
the Convertible Debentures issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.
The Company shall cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until all
of the  Registrable  Securities  have  been  sold.  Prior to the  filing  of the
Registration  Statement  with the SEC, the Company  shall  furnish a copy of the
Initial Registration  Statement to the Investors,  and Butler Gonzalez,  LLP for
their review and comment.  The Investors  and Butler  Gonzalez LLP shall furnish
comments on the Initial Registration Statement to the Company within twenty-four
(24) hours of the receipt thereof from the Company.

            (b) Effectiveness of the Initial Registration Statement. The Company
shall  use its best  efforts  (i) to have  the  Initial  Registration  Statement
declared  effective  by the SEC no later  than  ninety  (90) days after the date
hereof (the "Scheduled  Effective Deadline") and (ii) to insure that the Initial
Registration  Statement and any  subsequent  Registration  Statement  remains in
effect until all of the Registrable  Securities  have been sold,  subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.

            (c)  Failure  to File or Obtain  Effectiveness  of the  Registration
Statement. In the event the Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled
Filing  Deadline  or is not  declared  effective  by the  SEC on or  before  the
Scheduled  Effective  Date,  or if after  the  Registration  Statement  has been
declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration
Statement  (whether  because  of a failure  to keep the  Registration  Statement
effective,  failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be
made  pursuant to the  Registration  Statement,  failure to register  sufficient
shares of Common  Stock or otherwise  then as partial  relief for the damages to
any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction
of its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall
not be  exclusive of any other  remedies at law or in equity),  the Company will
pay as  liquidated  damages (the  "Liquidated  Damages")  to the holder,  at the
holder's  option,  either a cash amount or shares of the Company's  Common Stock
within three (3) business  days,  after demand  therefore,  equal to two percent
(2%) of the  liquidated  value  of the  Convertible  Debentures  outstanding  as
Liquidated  Damages for each thirty (30) day period after the  Scheduled  Filing
Deadline or the Scheduled Effective Date as the case may be.

                                       2
<PAGE>

            (d)  Liquidated  Damages.   The  Company  and  the  Investor  hereto
acknowledge  and agree that the sums payable under  subsection  2(c) above shall
constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in addition to all other
rights of the  Investor,  including  the right to call a  default.  The  parties
further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred
is incapable or is difficult to precisely  estimate,  (ii) the amounts specified
in such  subsections  bear a reasonable  relationship to, and are not plainly or
grossly  disproportionate  to  the  probable  loss  likely  to  be  incurred  in
connection   with  any  failure  by  the  Company  to  obtain  or  maintain  the
effectiveness  of a  Registration  Statement,  (iii) one of the  reasons for the
Company  and the  Investor  reaching  an  agreement  as to such  amounts was the
uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of actual damages, and
(iv) the Company and the Investor are  sophisticated  business  parties and have
been  represented by  sophisticated  and able legal counsel and negotiated  this
Agreement at arm's length.

      3. RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

            (a) The  Company  shall keep the  Registration  Statement  effective
pursuant  to Rule 415 at all times  until the date on which the  Investor  shall
have sold all the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement,
or  until  such  time  as the  Investor  is  eligible  to sell  the  Registrable
Securities  under the provisions of Rule 144(k),  (the  "Registration  Period"),
which Registration  Statement  (including any amendments or supplements  thereto
and prospectuses  contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading.

            (b) The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such  amendments
(including   post-effective   amendments)  and  supplements  to  a  Registration
Statement  and  the  prospectus  used  in  connection  with  such   Registration
Statement,  which  prospectus  is to be filed  pursuant to Rule 424  promulgated
under the 1933 Act,  as may be  necessary  to keep such  Registration  Statement
effective at all times during the Registration  Period, and, during such period,
comply with the  provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the  disposition  of
all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement
until such time as all of such  Registrable  Securities shall have been disposed
of in  accordance  with the  intended  methods of  disposition  by the seller or
sellers  thereof  as set forth in such  Registration  Statement.  In the case of
amendments and supplements to a Registration  Statement which are required to be
filed  pursuant to this Agreement  (including  pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by
reason of the Company's filing a report on Form 10-KSB,  Form 10-QSB or Form 8-K
or any analogous  report under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act"),  the Company shall  incorporate  such report by reference into
the  Registration  Statement,  if applicable,  or shall file such  amendments or
supplements  with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act  report is filed
which  created  the  requirement  for the  Company  to amend or  supplement  the
Registration Statement.

                                       3
<PAGE>

            (c) The Company  shall furnish to each  Investor  whose  Registrable
Securities are included in any Registration  Statement,  without charge,  (i) at
least one (1) copy of such Registration  Statement as declared  effective by the
SEC and any amendment(s) thereto,  including financial statements and schedules,
all  documents  incorporated  therein  by  reference,   all  exhibits  and  each
preliminary prospectus, (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in
such Registration  Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such
other number of copies as such Investor may  reasonably  request) and (iii) such
other  documents as such  Investor may  reasonably  request from time to time in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable  Securities owned by such
Investor.

            (d) The  Company  shall use its best  efforts  to (i)  register  and
qualify the  Registrable  Securities  covered by a Registration  Statement under
such other  securities  or "blue sky" laws of such  jurisdictions  in the United
States as any  Investor  reasonably  requests,  (ii)  prepare  and file in those
jurisdictions,   such  amendments  (including  post-effective   amendments)  and
supplements  to such  registrations  and  qualifications  as may be necessary to
maintain the effectiveness  thereof during the Registration  Period,  (iii) take
such other  actions as may be  necessary  to  maintain  such  registrations  and
qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration  Period,  and (iv)
take all  other  actions  reasonably  necessary  or  advisable  to  qualify  the
Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;  provided,  however, that
the  Company  shall not be required in  connection  therewith  or as a condition
thereto to (w) make any change to its certificate of  incorporation  or by-laws,
(x) qualify to do business in any  jurisdiction  where it would not otherwise be
required to qualify but for this  Section  3(d),  (y) subject  itself to general
taxation in any such  jurisdiction,  or (z) file a general consent to service of
process  in any such  jurisdiction.  The  Company  shall  promptly  notify  each
Investor who holds  Registrable  Securities of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification
of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or "blue sky"
laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of
the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (e) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or
development,  the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the happening
of any event as a result  of which the  prospectus  included  in a  Registration
Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or
omission to state a material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made,  not  misleading  (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any
material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment
to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and
deliver ten (10) copies of such  supplement or amendment to each  Investor.  The
Company  shall  also  promptly  notify  each  Investor  in  writing  (i)  when a
prospectus or any  prospectus  supplement or  post-effective  amendment has been
filed,  and when a Registration  Statement or any  post-effective  amendment has
become effective  (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each
Investor  by  facsimile  on the  same  day of such  effectiveness),  (ii) of any
request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration  Statement or
related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company's reasonable
determination that a post-effective  amendment to a Registration Statement would
be appropriate.

            (f) The Company  shall use its best  efforts to prevent the issuance
of any  stop  order or  other  suspension  of  effectiveness  of a  Registration
Statement,  or the  suspension of the  qualification  of any of the  Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction within the United States of America and,
if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order
or  suspension at the earliest  possible  moment and to notify each Investor who
holds  Registrable  Securities  being sold of the issuance of such order and the
resolution  thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the  initiation or threat
of any proceeding for such purpose.

            (g) At the  reasonable  request of any  Investor,  the Company shall
furnish to such Investor,  on the date of the  effectiveness of the Registration
Statement  and  thereafter  from time to time on such dates as an  Investor  may
reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company's independent
certified  public  accountants in form and substance as is customarily  given by
independent  certified  public  accountants to  underwriters  in an underwritten
public  offering,  and  (ii) an  opinion,  dated  as of such  date,  of  counsel
representing the Company for purposes of such Registration  Statement,  in form,
scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten  public offering,
addressed to the Investors.

            (h) The  Company  shall make  available  for  inspection  by (i) any
Investor and (ii) one (1) firm of  accountants  or other agents  retained by the
Investors  (collectively,  the "Inspectors")  all pertinent  financial and other
records,  and  pertinent  corporate  documents  and  properties  of the  Company
(collectively,  the "Records"),  as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each
Inspector,  and cause the Company's officers,  directors and employees to supply
all information which any Inspector may reasonably request;  provided,  however,
that each Inspector  shall agree,  and each Investor  hereby agrees,  to hold in
strict  confidence and shall not make any disclosure  (except to an Investor) or
use any Record or other information  which the Company  determines in good faith
to be confidential,  and of which  determination the Inspectors are so notified,
unless (a) the  disclosure  of such  Records is  necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in any Registration  Statement or is otherwise required
under the 1933 Act,  (b) the  release of such  Records is ordered  pursuant to a
final,  non-appealable  subpoena  or order  from a court or  government  body of
competent  jurisdiction,  or (c) the  information  in such Records has been made
generally  available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this
or any other  agreement of which the Inspector  and the Investor has  knowledge.
Each  Investor  agrees that it shall,  upon  learning  that  disclosure  of such
Records  is  sought  in  or  by  a  court  or  governmental  body  of  competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow
the  Company,  at its  expense,  to  undertake  appropriate  action  to  prevent
disclosure  of,  or to  obtain  a  protective  order  for,  the  Records  deemed
confidential.

            (i) The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure
of  information  concerning  an  Investor  provided  to the  Company  unless (i)
disclosure  of such  information  is  necessary  to comply with federal or state
securities  laws, (ii) the disclosure of such  information is necessary to avoid
or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration  Statement,  (iii) the
release of such  information  is ordered  pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable   order  from  a  court  or   governmental   body  of   competent
jurisdiction,  or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the
public other than by  disclosure  in  violation  of this  Agreement or any other
agreement.  The Company agrees that it shall,  upon learning that  disclosure of
such  information  concerning  an  Investor  is  sought  in  or  by a  court  or
governmental body of competent  jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt
written  notice to such  Investor  and allow such  Investor,  at the  Investor's
expense, to undertake  appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain
a protective order for, such information.

Registrable  Securities covered by a Registration  Statement (i) to be listed on
each securities  exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued
by the Company  are then  listed,  if any,  if the  listing of such  Registrable
Securities  is then  permitted  under  the  rules of such  exchange  or (ii) the
inclusion for quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc.
OTC Bulletin Board for such  Registrable  Securities.  The Company shall pay all
fees and  expenses in  connection  with  satisfying  its  obligation  under this

            (k)  The  Company  shall  cooperate  with  the  Investors  who  hold

facilitate the timely  preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any
restrictive  legend)  representing  the  Registrable  Securities  to be  offered
pursuant to a Registration  Statement and enable such certificates to be in such
denominations  or amounts,  as the case may be, as the Investors may  reasonably
request and registered in such names as the Investors may request.

            (l) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the  Registrable

with or approved by such other  governmental  agencies or  authorities as may be
necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

Investors  whose  Registrable  Securities  are  included  in  such  Registration
Statement)  confirmation  that such  Registration  Statement  has been  declared
effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

            (p) The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to

      4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS.

      Each Investor  agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of
the  happening  of any event of the kind  described in Section 3(f) or the first
sentence of 3(e),  such Investor will  immediately  discontinue  disposition  of
Registrable  Securities pursuant to any Registration  Statement(s) covering such
Registrable  Securities  until  such  Investor's  receipt  of the  copies of the
supplemented  or amended  prospectus  contemplated by Section 3(e) or receipt of
notice that no supplement or amendment is required.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary,  the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver  unlegended
certificates  for  shares of Common  Stock to a  transferee  of an  Investor  in
accordance  with the terms of the  Securities  Purchase  Agreement in connection
with any sale of  Registrable  Securities  with respect to which an Investor has
entered  into a contract  for sale prior to the  Investor's  receipt of a notice
from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind  described in Section
3(f) or the  first  sentence  of 3(e) and for  which  the  Investor  has not yet
settled.

      5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

      All  expenses  incurred  in  connection  with  registrations,  filings  or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including,  without limitation, all

      6. INDEMNIFICATION.

      With  respect  to   Registrable   Securities   which  are  included  in  a
Registration Statement under this Agreement:

            (a) To the fullest  extent  permitted by law, the Company will,  and
hereby does, indemnify,  hold harmless and defend each Investor,  the directors,
officers, partners,  employees, agents,  representatives of, and each Person, if
any, who  controls  any Investor  within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934
Act (each,  an  "Indemnified  Person"),  against  any losses,  claims,  damages,
liabilities,  judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys'
fees,  amounts paid in settlement or expenses,  joint or several  (collectively,
"Claims") incurred in investigating,  preparing or defending any action,  claim,
suit, inquiry,  proceeding,  investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by
or before any court or governmental,  administrative or other regulatory agency,
body or the SEC,  whether  pending or threatened,  whether or not an indemnified
party is or may be a party thereto ("Indemnified Damages"), to which any of them
may become subject  insofar as such Claims (or actions or  proceedings,  whether
commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i)
any  untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue  statement  of a  material  fact in a
Registration Statement or any post-effective  amendment thereto or in any filing
made in connection with the  qualification  of the offering under the securities
or other "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are
offered  ("Blue Sky  Filing"),  or the  omission or alleged  omission to state a
material fact required to be stated  therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any final  prospectus (as amended or  supplemented,
if the Company files any amendment  thereof or supplement  thereto with the SEC)
or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary
to make the statements made therein,  in light of the circumstances  under which
the  statements  therein were made,  not  misleading;  or (iii) any violation or
alleged  violation  by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law,
including,  without  limitation,  any  state  securities  law,  or any  rule  or
regulation  there  under  relating  to the  offer  or  sale  of the  Registrable
Securities  pursuant to a  Registration  Statement (the matters in the foregoing
clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively,  "Violations"). The Company shall
reimburse  the  Investors  and each such  controlling  person  promptly  as such
expenses  are  incurred  and  are  due  and  payable,  for  any  legal  fees  or
disbursements or other reasonable  expenses  incurred by them in connection with
investigating  or  defending  any such  Claim.  Notwithstanding  anything to the
contrary  contained  herein,  the  indemnification  agreement  contained in this
Section 6(a):  (x) shall not apply to a Claim by an  Indemnified  Person arising
out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with information  furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person
expressly  for  use in  connection  with  the  preparation  of the  Registration
Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto;  (y) shall not be
available  to the extent  such Claim is based on a failure  of the  Investor  to
deliver  or to  cause to be  delivered  the  prospectus  made  available  by the
Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to
Section 3(c); and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim
if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in
full force and effect  regardless of any  investigation  made by or on behalf of
the  Indemnified  Person  and shall  survive  the  transfer  of the  Registrable
Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 hereof.

                                       7
<PAGE>

            (b) In  connection  with a  Registration  Statement,  each  Investor
agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify,  hold harmless and defend, to the
same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company,
each of its  directors,  each of its officers,  employees,  representatives,  or
agents and each Person,  if any, who controls the Company  within the meaning of
the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each an "Indemnified Party"), against any Claim or
Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act,
the 1934 Act or otherwise,  insofar as such Claim or  Indemnified  Damages arise
out of or is based upon any Violation,  in each case to the extent,  and only to
the extent,  that such Violation  occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information  furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use
in connection with such  Registration  Statement;  and, subject to Section 6(d),
such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses  reasonably incurred by
them in connection  with  investigating  or defending any such Claim;  provided,
however,  that the  indemnity  agreement  contained in this Section 6(b) and the
agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such  settlement is effected  without
the  prior  written  consent  of  such  Investor,  which  consent  shall  not be
unreasonably withheld;  provided,  further,  however, that the Investor shall be
liable under this  Section  6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or  Indemnified
Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such  Investor as a result of the
sale of Registrable  Securities  pursuant to such Registration  Statement.  Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect  regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of
the   Registrable   Securities   by  the   Investors   pursuant  to  Section  9.
Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary contained herein, the  indemnification
agreement  contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any  prospectus  shall
not inure to the benefit of any  Indemnified  Party if the untrue  statement  or
omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new
prospectus  was delivered to each Investor  prior to such  Investor's use of the
prospectus to which the Claim relates.

            (c) Promptly after receipt by an  Indemnified  Person or Indemnified
Party  under  this  Section  6 of notice of the  commencement  of any  action or
proceeding  (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim,
such  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified  Party  shall,  if a Claim in  respect
thereof is to be made  against  any  indemnifying  party  under this  Section 6,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement  thereof,
and the  indemnifying  party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying  party so desires,  jointly with any other  indemnifying
party similarly  noticed,  to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
mutually  satisfactory to the indemnifying  party and the Indemnified  Person or
the  Indemnified  Party,  as  the  case  may  be;  provided,  however,  that  an
Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel  with the fees and  expenses  of not more than one (1)  counsel for such
Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party to be paid by the indemnifying  party,
if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation  by such counsel of the Indemnified  Person or Indemnified  Party
and the  indemnifying  party would be  inappropriate  due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party  represented  by such counsel in such  proceeding.  The  Indemnified
Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in
connection  with any  negotiation  or defense of any such action or claim by the
indemnifying  party and shall furnish to the indemnifying  party all information
reasonably  available  to the  Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person  which
relates  to such  action  or  claim.  The  indemnifying  party  shall  keep  the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person fully apprised at all times as to the
status of the defense or any settlement  negotiations  with respect thereto.  No
indemnifying  party shall be liable for any  settlement of any action,  claim or
proceeding effected without its prior written consent;  provided,  however, that
the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably  withhold,  delay or condition its
consent.  No indemnifying party shall,  without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person,  consent to entry of any judgment or
enter into any  settlement  or other  compromise  which  does not  include as an
unconditional  term  thereof  the giving by the  claimant or  plaintiff  to such
Indemnified  Party or  Indemnified  Person of a release  from all  liability  in
respect to such claim or litigation.  Following  indemnification as provided for
hereunder,  the  indemnifying  party  shall be  subrogated  to all rights of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms
or corporations  relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.
The  failure  to  deliver  written  notice to the  indemnifying  party  within a
reasonable  time of the  commencement  of any such action shall not relieve such
indemnifying  party of any liability to the  Indemnified  Person or  Indemnified
Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying  party is
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

                                       8
<PAGE>

            (d) The indemnification  required by this Section 6 shall be made by
periodic  payments of the amount thereof during the course of the  investigation
or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

            (e) The indemnity  agreements  contained herein shall be in addition
to (i) any  cause  of  action  or  similar  right  of the  Indemnified  Party or
Indemnified  Person  against  the  indemnifying  party or  others,  and (ii) any
liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

      7. CONTRIBUTION.

      To the extent any  indemnification  by an indemnifying party is prohibited
or  limited  by  law,  the  indemnifying   party  agrees  to  make  the  maximum
contribution  with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable
under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that:
(i) no seller of Registrable  Securities guilty of fraudulent  misrepresentation
(within  the  meaning of Section  11(f) of the 1933 Act)  shall be  entitled  to
contribution  from any seller of  Registrable  Securities  who was not guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable
Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds  received by
such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

      8. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.

      With a view to making  available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that
may at any time permit the  Investors to sell  securities  of the Company to the
public without registration ("Rule 144") the Company agrees to:

            (a) make and keep public information  available,  as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144;

            (b) file  with the SEC in a timely  manner  all  reports  and  other
documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as
the Company  remains  subject to such  requirements  (it being  understood  that
nothing herein shall limit the Company's  obligations  under Section 4(c) of the
Securities  Purchase  Agreement)  and the  filing  of  such  reports  and  other
documents as are required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

                                       9
<PAGE>

            (c)  furnish  to  each  Investor  so  long  as  such  Investor  owns
Registrable  Securities,  promptly upon request,  (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied  with the reporting  requirements  of Rule 144, the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act,  (ii) a copy of the most recent  annual or  quarterly
report of the  Company  and such other  reports  and  documents  so filed by the
Company,  and (iii) such other  information  as may be  reasonably  requested to
permit  the  Investors  to sell such  securities  pursuant  to Rule 144  without
registration.

      9. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

      Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may
be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively
or  prospectively),  only with the written  consent of the Company and Investors
who then  hold at least  two-thirds  (2/3) of the  Registrable  Securities.  Any
amendment or waiver  effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding
upon each Investor and the Company.  No such amendment shall be effective to the
extent  that it  applies to fewer  than all of the  holders  of the  Registrable
Securities.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or  modification  of any provision of any of this  Agreement
unless the same  consideration  also is  offered  to all of the  parties to this
Agreement.

      10. MISCELLANEOUS.

            (a) A Person  is deemed  to be a holder  of  Registrable  Securities
whenever  such  Person  owns or is  deemed  to own of  record  such  Registrable
Securities.  If  the  Company  receives  conflicting  instructions,  notices  or
elections  from two (2) or more  Persons  with  respect to the same  Registrable
Securities,  the  Company  shall act upon the basis of  instructions,  notice or
election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.

      (b) Any notices,  consents,  waivers or other  communications  required or
permitted to be given under the terms of this  Agreement  must be in writing and
will be  deemed  to have  been  delivered:  (i)  upon  receipt,  when  delivered
personally;  (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of
transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the
sending  party);  or (iii) one (1) business day after  deposit with a nationally
recognized  overnight  delivery service,  in each case properly addressed to the
party to  receive  the  same.  The  addresses  and  facsimile  numbers  for such
communications shall be:

action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal

jurisdiction  or the  validity  or  enforceability  of  any  provision  of  this
Agreement in any other  jurisdiction.  EACH PARTY HEREBY  IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST,  A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION

Attention:

         Re:      Y3K SECURE ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE INC.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We  are  counsel  to  Y3K  Secure  Enterprise   Software  Inc.,  a  Nevada
corporation (the "Company"), and have represented the Company in connection with
that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement")
entered  into  by  and  among  the  Company  and  the  investors  named  therein
(collectively,  the  "Investors")  pursuant to which the  Company  issued to the
Investors  shares of its Common  Stock,  par value $____ per share (the  "Common
Stock"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a
Registration  Rights  Agreement with the Investors  (the "Investor  Registration
Rights Agreement")  pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to
register  the  Registrable  Securities  (as defined in the  Registration  Rights
Agreement)  under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").  In
connection  with  the  Company's   obligations  under  the  Registration  Rights
Agreement,  on ____________ ____, the Company filed a Registration  Statement on
Form ________ (File No.  333-_____________) (the "Registration  Statement") with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  SEC  (the  "SEC")  relating  to the  Registrable
Securities  which names each of the  Investors  as a selling  stockholder  there
under.

      In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC's
staff has advised us by  telephone  that the SEC has entered an order  declaring
the  Registration  Statement  effective  under  the 1933 Act at  [ENTER  TIME OF
EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge,  after
telephonic  inquiry  of a  member  of the  SEC's  staff,  that  any  stop  order
suspending its  effectiveness  has been issued or that any  proceedings for that
purpose  are  pending  before,  or  threatened  by, the SEC and the  Registrable
Securities  are  available  for  resale  under  the  1933  Act  pursuant  to the
Registration Statement.

                                       Very truly yours,

                                       KIRKPATRICK & LOCKHART LLP

                            PLACEMENT AGENT AGREEMENT

                                                   Dated as of: January 19, 2004

Westrock Advisors, Inc.
230 Park Avenue, Floor 9
New York, New York 10169

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         The  undersigned,   Y3K  Secure  Enterprise  Software  Inc.,  a  Nevada
corporation (the  "Company"),  hereby agrees with Westrock  Advisors,  Inc. (the
"Placement  Agent")  and  Cornell  Capital  Partners,  LP,  a  Delaware  Limited
Partnership (the "Investor"), as follows:

         1. Offering.  The Company hereby engages the Placement  Agent to act as
its exclusive placement agent in connection with the Standby Equity Distribution
Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Standby Equity  Distribution  Agreement"),
pursuant to which the Company shall issue and sell to the Investor, from time to
time, and the Investor  shall  purchase from the Company (the  "Offering") up to
Twenty  Million  Dollars  ($20,000,000)  of  the  Company's  common  stock  (the
"Commitment Amount"),  par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at price
per share equal to the  Purchase  Price,  as that term is defined in the Standby
Equity  Distribution  Agreement.  The Placement  Agent services shall consist of
reviewing the terms of the Standby  Equity  Distribution  Agreement and advising
the Company with respect to those terms.

         All  capitalized  terms used herein and not  otherwise  defined  herein
shall  have  the  same  meaning  ascribed  to  them  as in  the  Standby  Equity
Distribution Agreement. The Investor will be granted certain registration rights
with  respect  to the Common  Stock as more fully set forth in the  Registration
Rights Agreement between the Company and the Investor dated the date hereof (the
"Registration Rights Agreement").  The documents to be executed and delivered in
connection  with the  Offering,  including,  but not limited,  to the  Company's
latest  Quarterly  Report  on Form  10-QSB  as  filed  with  the  United  States
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,   this  Agreement,   the  Standby  Equity
Distribution  Agreement,  the  Registration  Rights  Agreement,  and the  Escrow
Agreement  dated the date  hereof  (the  "Escrow  Agreement"),  are  referred to
sometimes  hereinafter  collectively as the "Offering  Materials." The Company's
Common  Stock  purchased by the  Investor  hereunder  is  sometimes  referred to
hereinafter as the  "Securities."  The Placement Agent shall not be obligated to
sell any Securities.

<PAGE>

         2. Compensation. Because the Placement Agent was previously compensated
by the Company,  the Placement Agent shall not receive  additional  compensation
for its services under this Agreement.  The Placement Agent shall be entitled to
"piggy-back"  registration  rights for shares previously issued to the Placement
Agent,  which shall be triggered upon registration of any shares of Common Stock
by the Investor  pursuant to the  Registration  Rights  Agreement dated the date
hereof.

         3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Placement Agent.

         A. The Placement Agent represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

              (i) The Placement Agent has the necessary power to enter into this
Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

              (ii) The  execution  and delivery by the  Placement  Agent of this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions  contemplated herein will not
result in any  violation  of, or be in conflict  with,  or  constitute a default
under, any agreement or instrument to which the Placement Agent is a party or by
which the Placement Agent or its properties are bound, or any judgment,  decree,

the 1934 Act, the Rules and  Regulations,  or any other  federal or state law or
regulation,  common  law or  otherwise,  arising  out of or  based  upon (i) the
conduct of the Investor or its  officers,  employees or  representatives  in its
acting  as the  Investor  for the  Offering,  (ii) the  material  breach  of any
representation,  warranty,  covenant or  agreement  made by the  Investor in the
Offering Materials, or (iii) any false or misleading information provided to the
Placement Agent by one of the Investor's indemnified persons.

         D. The Placement  Agent hereby  agrees that it will  indemnify and hold
the Investor and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or representative
of the  Investor,  and each person  controlling,  controlled  by or under common
control  with the  Investor  within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or
Section  20 of the 1934 Act or the  Rules  and  Regulations,  harmless  from and
against any and all loss, claim, damage,  liability,  cost or expense whatsoever
(including,  but not  limited  to, any and all  reasonable  legal fees and other
expenses and disbursements incurred in connection with investigating,  preparing
to defend or defending any action, suit or proceeding,  including any inquiry or
investigation,  commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever or in appearing
or preparing  for  appearance  as a witness in any action,  suit or  proceeding,
including  any  inquiry,   investigation  or  pretrial   proceeding  such  as  a
deposition) to which the Investor or such indemnified person of the Investor may
become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the Rules and  Regulations,  or
any other federal or state law or regulation,  common law or otherwise,  arising
out of or based  upon  the  material  breach  of any  representation,  warranty,
covenant or agreement made by the Placement Agent in this Agreement.

         E.  Promptly  after  receipt  by an  indemnified  party  of  notice  of
commencement  of any action covered by Section 7(A),  (B), (C) or (D), the party
to be indemnified shall,  within five (5) business days, notify the indemnifying
party of the commencement  thereof; the omission by one (1) indemnified party to
so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its
obligation to indemnify any other  indemnified  party that has given such notice
and shall not relieve the  indemnifying  party of any liability  outside of this
indemnification  if not  materially  prejudiced  thereby.  In the event that any
action is brought against the indemnified  party, the indemnifying party will be
entitled to participate  therein and, to the extent it may desire, to assume and
control  the  defense  thereof  with  counsel  chosen by it which is  reasonably
acceptable to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to

                                       10
<PAGE>

such  indemnified  party of its election to so assume the defense  thereof,  the
indemnifying  party  will not be liable to such  indemnified  party  under  such
Section  7(A),  (B),  (C), or (D) for any legal or other  expenses  subsequently
incurred by such indemnified  party in connection with the defense thereof,  but
the  indemnified  party may, at its own expense,  participate in such defense by
counsel  chosen by it,  without,  however,  impairing the  indemnifying  party's
control  of  the  defense.   Subject  to  the  proviso  of  this   sentence  and
notwithstanding  any other  statement  to the  contrary  contained  herein,  the
indemnified  party or  parties  shall  have the right to choose its or their own
counsel  and  control  the  defense  of any  action,  all at the  expense of the
indemnifying  party  if (i) the  employment  of such  counsel  shall  have  been
authorized in writing by the  indemnifying  party in connection with the defense
of  such  action  at  the  expense  of  the  indemnifying  party,  or  (ii)  the
indemnifying  party shall not have employed counsel  reasonably  satisfactory to
such  indemnified  party to have charge of the  defense of such action  within a
reasonable  time  after  notice of  commencement  of the  action,  or (iii) such
indemnified  party or parties shall have reasonably  concluded that there may be
defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those
available  to one  or  all  of the  indemnifying  parties  (in  which  case  the
indemnifying  parties  shall not have the right to direct  the  defense  of such
action on behalf of the  indemnified  party or parties),  in any of which events
such  fees  and  expenses  of one  additional  counsel  shall  be  borne  by the
indemnifying party; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in
connection with any one action or separate but substantially  similar or related
actions in the same jurisdiction  arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstance,  be liable for the  reasonable  fees and expenses of more than one
separate  firm of attorneys  at any time for all such  indemnified  parties.  No
settlement of any action or  proceeding  against an  indemnified  party shall be
made without the consent of the indemnifying party.

         F.  In  order  to  provide  for  just  and  equitable  contribution  in
circumstances in which the indemnification  provided for in Section 7(A) or 7(B)
is due in accordance  with its terms but is for any reason held by a court to be
unavailable  on grounds of policy or  otherwise,  the Company and the  Placement
Agent shall contribute to the aggregate losses,  claims, damages and liabilities
(including  legal or other expenses  reasonably  incurred in connection with the
investigation  or defense of same) which the other may incur in such  proportion
so that the  Placement  Agent  shall be  responsible  for  such  percent  of the
aggregate of such losses,  claims,  damages and  liabilities  as shall equal the
percentage of the gross  proceeds  paid to the  Placement  Agent and the Company
shall be responsible for the balance;  provided,  however, that no person guilty
of fraudulent  misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933
Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent  misrepresentation.  For  purposes of this Section  7(F),  any person
controlling,  controlled by or under common control with the Placement Agent, or
any partner,  director,  officer,  employee,  representative or any agent of any
thereof,  shall have the same rights to  contribution as the Placement Agent and
each person controlling,  controlled by or under common control with the Company
within  the  meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act
and each officer of the Company and each  director of the Company shall have the
same rights to contribution  as the Company.  Any party entitled to contribution
will,  promptly after receipt of notice of commencement  of any action,  suit or
proceeding  against such party in respect of which a claim for  contribution may
be made against the other party under this Section 7(D),  notify such party from
whom contribution may be sought,  but the omission to so notify such party shall
not relieve the party from whom  contribution  may be sought from any obligation
they may have hereunder or otherwise if the party from whom  contribution may be
sought is not materially prejudiced thereby.

                                       11
<PAGE>

         G. The indemnity and contribution  agreements contained in this Section
7 shall  remain  operative  and in  full  force  and  effect  regardless  of any
investigation  made by or on behalf of any indemnified person or any termination
of this Agreement.

         H. The Company hereby waives,  to the fullest extent  permitted by law,
any right to or claim of any punitive, exemplary, incidental, indirect, special,
consequential or other damages (including,  without limitation, loss of profits)
against the Placement Agent and each officer, director, shareholder, employee or
representative of the placement agent and each person controlling, controlled by
or under common  control with the Placement  Agent within the meaning of Section
15 of the 1933 Act or  Section  20 of the 1934 Act or the Rules and  Regulations
arising out of any cause  whatsoever  (whether  such cause be based in contract,
negligence, strict liability, other tort or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, the aggregate liability of the Placement Agent
and each  officer,  director,  shareholder,  employee or  representative  of the
Placement  Agent and each  person  controlling,  controlled  by or under  common
control  with the  Placement  Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933
Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act or the Rules and Regulations  shall not exceed
the  compensation  received by the Placement Agent pursuant to Section 2 hereof.
This  limitation  of liability  shall apply  regardless  of the cause of action,
whether contract, tort (including, without limitation,  negligence) or breach of
statute or any other legal or equitable obligation.

         8. Payment of Expenses.

         The Company  hereby  agrees to bear all of the  expenses in  connection
with the Offering,  including,  but not limited to the  following:  filing fees,
printing and duplicating  costs,  advertisements,  postage and mailing  expenses
with respect to the transmission of Offering  Materials,  registrar and transfer
agent fees,  escrow agent fees and expenses,  fees of the Company's  counsel and
accountants, issue and transfer taxes, if any.

         9. Conditions of Closing.

         The  Closing  shall  be  held at the  offices  of the  Investor  or its
counsel.  The  obligations of the Placement  Agent hereunder shall be subject to
the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and
the  Investor  herein as of the date  hereof and as of the Date of Closing  (the
"Closing Date") with respect to the Company or the Investor, as the case may be,
as if it had been made on and as of such Closing Date; the accuracy on and as of
the Closing Date of the  statements of the officers of the Company made pursuant

following further conditions:

              A. Upon the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the
Standby  Equity  Distribution  Agreement,  the Investor and the Placement  Agent
shall  receive  the  opinion  of Counsel  to the  Company,  dated as of the date
thereof, which opinion shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Investor, their counsel and the Placement Agent.

              B. At or prior to the  Closing,  the  Investor  and the  Placement
Agent shall have been furnished such documents,  certificates and opinions as it
may  reasonably  require for the purpose of enabling them to review or pass upon
the matters  referred to in this  Agreement  and the Offering  Materials,  or in
order to evidence  the  accuracy,  completeness  or  satisfaction  of any of the
representations, warranties or conditions herein contained.

                                       12

              C. At and  prior to the  Closing,  (i)  there  shall  have been no

condition or prospects or the business  activities,  financial or otherwise,  of
the Company from the latest dates as of which such condition is set forth in the
Offering  Materials;  (ii)  there  shall  have been no  transaction,  not in the
ordinary course of business except the  transactions  pursuant to the Securities

issued any securities (other than those to be issued as provided in the Offering

indebtedness  (long or short term) or  liabilities or obligations of the Company
(contingent or otherwise) and trade payable debt; (v) no material  amount of the
assets of the Company shall have been pledged or mortgaged,  except as indicated

shall be  pending  or  threatened  before  or by any court or  federal  or state
commission,  board or other administrative agency, domestic or foreign,  wherein
an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding could materially adversely affect the
businesses, prospects or financial condition or income of the Company, except as
set forth in the Offering Materials.

              D. If requested at Closing the  Investor and the  Placement  Agent
shall receive a certificate  of the Company  signed by an executive  officer and
chief financial officer,  dated as of the applicable Closing, to the effect that

accuracy of the Placement Agent's representations and warranties hereunder,  (1)
the Offering is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act or any
applicable state "Blue Sky" law or (2) the Investor is an Accredited Investor.

         10. Termination.

         This Agreement  shall be co-terminus  with, and terminate upon the same

Agreement.  The rights of the Investor and the  obligations of the Company under
the Registration Rights Agreement, and the rights of the Placement Agent and the
obligations  of the Company  shall  survive the  termination  of this  Agreement
unabridged.
