      A-Z and will furnish A-Z with all Information concerning the Entity and any
      Transaction, Alternate Transaction or Financing which A-Z deems appropriate
      and

      obligations pursuant to this Agreement. The Entity hereby agrees and represents
      that all Information furnished to A-Z pursuant to this Agreement shall be
      accurate and complete in all material respects at the time provided, and that,
      if the Information becomes materially inaccurate, incomplete or misleading
      during the term of A-Z's engagement hereunder, the Entity shall promptly advise
      A-Z in writing. Accordingly, A-Z assumes no responsibility for the accuracy
      and
      completeness of the Information. In rendering its services, A-Z will be using
      and relying upon the Information without independent verification evaluation
      thereof. 

    

    7. Governing
      Law.
      This
      Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
      the

    8. No
      Brokers.
      The
      Entity represents and warrants to A-Z that there are no brokers, representatives
      or other persons which have an interest in compensation due to A-Z from any
      services contemplated herein. 

    

    9.
      Authorization.
      The
      Entity and A-Z represent and warrant that each has all requisite power and
      authority, and all necessary authorizations, to enter into and carry out the
      terms and provisions of this Agreement and the execution, delivery and
      performance of this Agreement does not breach or conflict with any agreement,
      document or instrument to which it is a party or bound.

    

    10. Miscellaneous.
      This
      Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the Entity
      and A-Z with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
      understanding or agreements between the parties with respect thereto, whether
      oral or written, express or implied. Any amendments or modifications must be
      executed in writing by both parties. This Agreement and all rights, liabilities
      and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon and insure to the benefit of
      each party’s successors but may not be assigned without the prior written
      approval of the other party. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
      or
      made invalid by a statute, rule, regulation, decision of a tribunal or
      otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and,
      to
      this extent, the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be severable.
      This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which,
      shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together,
      constitute only one instrument. The descriptive headings of the Paragraphs
      of
      this Agreement are inserted for convenience only, do not constitute a part
      of
      this Agreement and shall not affect in anyway the meaning or interpretation
      of
      this Agreement.

    

    Please
      confirm that the foregoing correctly sets forth our agreement by signing below
      in the space provided and returning this Agreement to A-Z for execution, which
      shall constitute a binding agreement as of the date first above
      written.

    

    Thank
      you. We look forward to a mutually rewarding relationship.

    EXHIBIT
      A: INDEMNIFICATION

    

    The
      Entity agrees to indemnify A-Z, its employees, directors, officers, agents,
      affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls it within the meaning of
      either Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 15 of the
      Securities Act of 1933 (each such person, including A-Z is referred to as
      "Indemnified Party") from and against any losses, claims, damages and
      liabilities, joint or several (including all legal or other expenses reasonably
      incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with the preparation for or
      defense of any threatened or pending claim, action or proceeding, whether or
      not
      resulting in any liability) ("Damages"), to which such Indemnified Party, in
      connection with providing its services or arising out of its engagement
      hereunder, may become subject under any applicable Federal or state law or
      otherwise, including but not limited to liability or loss (i) caused by or
      arising out of an untrue statement or an alleged untrue statement of a material
      fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in
      order
      to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which
      it
      was made, (ii) caused by or arising out of any act or failure to act, or (iii)
      arising out of A-Z's engagement or the rendering by any Indemnified Party of
      its
      services under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Entity will not
      be
      liable to the Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that any Damages are
      found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction
      to
      have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified
      Party seeking indemnification hereunder.

    

    These
      indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability which the
      Entity may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party.

    

    If
      for
      any reason, other than a final non-appealable judgment finding an Indemnified
      Party liable for Damages for its gross negligence or willful misconduct the
      foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient
      to
      hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Entity shall contribute to the
      amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages
      in
      such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
      received by the Entity and its shareholders on the one hand and the Indemnified
      Party on the other, but also the relative fault of the Entity and the
      Indemnified Party as well as any relevant equitable considerations.

    

    Promptly
      after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or of the
      commencement of any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought, the
      Indemnified Party will notify the Entity in writing of the receipt or
      commencement thereof and the Entity shall have the right to assume the defense
      of such claim or action (including the employment of counsel reasonably
      satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of fees and expenses
      of
      such counsel), provided that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
      control its defense if, in the opinion of its counsel, the Indemnified Party's
      defense is unique or separate to it as the case may be, as opposed to a defense
      pertaining to the Entity. In any event, the Indemnified Party shall have the
      right to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Entity, at the Entity's
      sole expense, to represent it in any claim or action in respect of which
      indemnity may be sought and agrees to cooperate with the Entity and the Entity's
      counsel in the defense of such claim or action. In the event that the Entity
      does not promptly assume the defense of a claim or action, the Indemnified
      Party
      shall have the right to employ counsel to defend such claim or action. Any
      obligation pursuant to this Annex shall survive the termination or expiration
      of
      the Agreement.

    CONSULTING
      AGREEMENT

    

    THIS
      CONSULTING AGREEMENT
      (this
“Agreement”)
      is
      entered into and is effective as of July 27, 2005 by and between Homeland
      Integrated Security Systems, Inc.,
      a
      Florida Corporation, with a principal place of business at 1 Town Square
      Boulevard, Suite 347, Asheville, North Carolina 28803 (“Company”)
      and
      Big Apple Consulting USA, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, with principal offices
      at 280 Wekiva Springs Road, Suite 201, Longwood, FL 32779 (“Consultant”).

    

    R E C I T A L S:

    

    A. Consultant
      represents various financial websites that individuals can access to learn
      more
      about companies they may not otherwise be exposed to. 

    

    B. In
      addition, Consultant maintains an extensive database of brokers representing
      investors interested in owning stock in companies such as the Company and
      employs a stock profiler team which regularly communicates with such
      brokers.

    

    C. Company
      wishes to promote itself through Consultant’s efforts in the brokerage community
      in order to gain as much exposure as possible for Company. 

    

    T E R M S:

    

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

    

    1.00     
      Services
      to be Performed by Consultant

    

    1.01 Consultant
      shall access its database of brokers, containing over 25,000 active brokers
      throughout the United States who may be interested in the Company, and shall
      utilize a
      profiler team (comparable in size and capability to that currently employed
      by
      Consultant) in order to contact brokers interested in recommending Company
      to
      their investor clients. Consultant’s profilers will continue to “cold call” on a
      regular basis, which will continually add new broker’s to the
      database.

     

    
      	 	
              1.02
                Consultant shall diligently market and promote Company to brokers
                and
                other investors, advisors, counselors, trustees, agents and other
                individuals and entities whom Consultant is legally permitted to
                contact
                (including with the proper disclosures and disclaimers) and shall
                introduce Company and its principals to Consultant’s current and future
                network of brokerage firms and market makers. Consultant shall promote
                Company on a daily basis through all of their profilers and will
                train new
                profilers to promote the Company. Company understands and agrees
                that
                Consultant’s database constitutes proprietary information owned by
                Consultant, however on a bi-weekly basis Consultant will provide
                Company
                with a total of all calls made by Consultant’s
                profilers.

    1.03 Consultant
      shall provide investor lead management services normal and customary in the
      industry. Consultant will handle investor and broker inquiries (including with
      the proper disclosures and disclaimers) in a professional manner and will
      maintain a high call volume to outside financial institutions on behalf of
      the
      Company. 

    

    1.04 Consultant
      shall organize, initiate, manage and facilitate broker/investor conference
      telephone calls and other presentations mutually agreeable to Company and
      Consultant. Expenses for broker/investor conference calls and other
      presentations are to be paid by the Consultant, and must be pre-approved by
      the
      Company.

    

    1.05  Consultant
      shall review and monitor Company’s stockholder base and all transfer agent and
      DTC reports, and shall analyze, present to, and discuss with Company the results
      and implications of such reports. Company agrees to provide Consultant with
      all
      DTC reports on a weekly basis and a NOBO list on a monthly basis.

    

    1.06  Consultant
      shall provide Company with copies of “Assume the Sale” Reports and DTC analysis
      on no less than a monthly basis, and will use their best efforts to provide
      said
      reports and analysis on a more frequent basis.

    

    1.07  Company
      will be permitted to visit Consultant’s facility on a regular basis and will
      have the ability to talk in person with Consultant’s employees regarding their
      progress during the campaign. Consultant’s employees will be allowed to contact
      Company’s management for weekly conference calls and Company will be permitted
      to communicate with Consultant’s management with updated emails on a regular
      basis. However, Company represents and warrants it will not discuss any
      information that may be considered to be “insider information” with any employee
      of Consultant other than upper management and said discussions and communication
      will be solely on a need to know basis.

    

    1.08 In
      addition to the services identified in Section 1.01 to 1.06 above, at the
      direction of and with the consent of the Company, Consultant has agreed to

              Company
                represents and warrants that it is in compliance with all required
                filings
                and regulations of NASD, the SEC and/or any other governmental agencies,
                and that the Company’s stock is not suspended from trading for any reason
                whatsoever. Company further represents and warrants that during the
                term
                of this agreement, it will continue to file all required reports
                with the
                SEC, NASD and/or any other governmental agencies and will continue
                to
                adhere to SEC, NASD, and/or any other governmental agency’s requirements,
                and that it will take whatever steps are deemed necessary to keep
                its
                shares listed and “fully reporting.” The Company’s failure to comply with
                the provisions of this paragraph shall constitute a material breach
                of the
                parties’ agreement. Since Consultant has agreed to accept payment for
                services, in part, in the form of shares of the Company, the Company
                agrees that the value of the shares at the time of this agreement
                will be
                adversely affected and impacted if the promotion of the Company to
                the
                financial community and others is suspended due to a breach of the
                representations and warranties contained herein. Further, in the
                event of
                a breach of the representations and warranties contained herein the
                Company agrees to continue to make any payments due and the Company
                agrees
                to pay Consultant one and a half (1.5) times the cash value for any
                shares
                Consultant holds or is due and payable (as
                part of its compensation for this agreement)
                at
                the time of the Company’s breach of this paragraph. This “make whole
                payment” shall be made within five (5) business days of the date of the
                breach.

      Miscellaneous
      Terms

     

    5.01        
      Anti-dilution
      Clause.
      The
      company must notify the Consultant in writing at least ten (10) days prior
      to
      any new shares being added to the Company’s outstanding share total; including
      notifying the Consultant if any new shares are being added to the company’s
      float. Officers of the company must notify the Consultant of any transactions
      regarding the company’s security. If dilution occurs without the requisite
      notice, the Consultant’s compensation must be adjusted proportionately. If
      company violates the anti-dilution clause, then company must pay Consultant
      1.5
      times cash value for any shares the Consultant holds as part of its compensation
      for this agreement.
