                         SECTION 8. CONFIDENTIALITY

8.1      Confidential Information. Purchaser agrees that the Company has a
         ------------------------
         proprietary interest in any and all Company Confidential
         Information provided to Purchaser by the Company in connection with
         this Agreement or otherwise, whether such information is in
         written, oral or visual form.

8.2      Protection Of Company Information. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees
         ---------------------------------
         that all Company Confidential Information is confidential and

         (a)      Purchaser agrees to use Company Confidential Information
                  solely in the discharging of its responsibilities
                  hereunder;
         (b)      Purchaser may disclose Company Confidential Information to
                  its employees who have the need to know such information;
                  provided, however, that prior to any such disclosure,
                  Purchaser must have an appropriate confidentiality
                  agreement with any such employee, binding such employee on
                  the terms of this Section 8. For a period of three (3)
                  years from the date of receipt of Company Confidential
                  Information, Purchaser may not disclose such Confidential
                  Information to others (including but not limited to any
                  affiliates of Purchaser) unless, prior to such disclosure,
                  Purchaser has an appropriate agreement with the other
                  party and such disclosure is approved by the Company in
                  writing. All such appropriate agreements must enable
                  Purchaser to meet its obligations hereunder and to enforce
                  the terms and conditions of this Section;
         (c)      Purchaser shall not make any additional copies of any
                  writings, documents, programs or other media which contain
                  Company Confidential Information and are marked "do not
                  reproduce" or similar language, without the prior written
                  permission of the Company;
         (d)      Purchaser shall keep all writings, documents or other
                  media containing Company Confidential Information secure
                  in locked files at all times, when not in use, to prevent
                  their loss or unauthorized disclosure, take action to
                  prevent unauthorized access to any of its premises and
                  comply with all other reasonable security procedures and
                  measures which the Company may recommend from time to
                  time;
         (e)      Purchaser shall segregate Company Confidential Information
                  at all times from materials of third parties;
         (f)      Purchaser's obligations with respect to Company
                  Confidential Information will not apply to any information
                  that (i) is already in its possession without obligation
                  of confidence; (ii) is independently developed; (iii) is
                  or becomes publicly available without breach of this
                  Agreement; (iv) Purchaser rightfully receives from a third
                  party without obligation of confidence; or (v) is released
                  for disclosure with the Company's written consent;
         (g)      Purchaser shall, upon termination or expiration of this
                  Agreement, deliver to the Company all written or
                  descriptive materials which contain Company Confidential
                  Information;
         (h)      From time to time, the Company may provide Purchaser with
                  copies of documents labeled "For Internal Use Only".
                  Purchaser agrees to limit use of these documents to the
                  performance of its responsibilities hereunder and not to
                  make the documents available to any third party.

8.3      Protection Of Purchaser Information
         -----------------------------------
         (a)      Purchaser understands that the Company does not wish to
                  receive any information which Purchaser, or any third
                  party, considers confidential or proprietary. Information
                  that Purchaser supplies to the Company will not be treated
                  as confidential by the Company unless, before receipt, the
                  Company agrees in writing to do so.
         (b)      The Company may use any information which Purchaser makes
                  available to the Company, designated as confidential by
                  Purchaser, and the Company may authorize its affiliates to
                  use such information in their operations; provided,
                  however, that the Company shall instruct its personnel to
                  keep such information confidential by using the same care
                  and discretion that it uses with similar data which the
                  Company designates as confidential; further, the Company
                  shall not disclose any such confidential information by
                  publication or otherwise to any third party without the
                  prior written permission of Purchaser.
         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company conducts an
                  inspection in accordance with its rights pursuant hereto,
                  any materials inspected will be treated as confidential
                  and the Company will not disclose any of them unless
                  required by law to do so.

                  SECTION 9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS

9.1      Trademarks. Purchaser is hereby authorized to use the Trademarks
         ----------
         solely for the Term of this Agreement and solely for purposes of
         identifying the Products which Purchaser is authorized to market
         hereunder. In addition, Purchaser is hereby authorized to use,
         during the Term of this Agreement and within the United States, the
         designation "Distributor of VeriChip Products" or "VeriChip User"
         in its activities hereunder.
         (a)      Purchaser is not granted any right or license to use the
                  Trademarks or any other trademark or tradename owned by
                  the Company in such a manner as to cause confusion
                  concerning the origin of any goods or services.
                  Promotional, advertising and other materials to be used by
                  Purchaser, which incorporate or display any Trademarks,
                  other than such material which has been supplied to
                  Purchaser by the Company, shall be subject to the
                  Company's guidelines or instructions. Purchaser agrees to
                  change or correct, at Purchaser's expense, any such
                  promotional advertising or other material, which in the
                  Company's reasonable judgment is inaccurate, objectionable
                  or misleading, or misuses a trademark or tradename owned
                  by the Company.
         (b)      Purchaser hereby acknowledges the Company's exclusive
                  right, title and interest in and to the Trademarks.
                  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, except for the
                  limited use of the Trademarks for purposes of using or
                  marketing and distributing the Products in conformity with
                  this Agreement, Purchaser will acquire no right, title or
                  interest of any kind or nature whatsoever in or to the
                  Trademarks or the goodwill associated therewith. Purchaser
                  recognizes that the Trademarks and any goodwill attached
                  thereto, belong to the Company, and Purchaser understands
                  and agrees that Purchaser's use of the Trademarks shall

                  inure to the benefit of the Company. Purchaser shall not
                  disparage, bring into disrepute or reduce the value of any
                  Trademarks. Purchaser shall not at any time do or permit
                  any act to be done which may in any way impair the rights
                  of the Company in the Trademarks.
         (c)      Purchaser shall not, without the Company's prior written
                  consent, remove or alter any Trademarks, trade names,
                  patent numbers, serial numbers, notices, labels, tags or
                  other identifying marks, symbols or legends affixed to any
                  Products, containers or packages.
         (d)      Purchaser undertakes fully and without any reservation
                  whatsoever to render to the Company all assistance as may
                  be necessary in connection with any matter pertaining to
                  the protection of the Trademarks, including, without
                  limitation, to assert no interest in or to, and to
                  withdraw or terminate any interest in or to, any
                  Trademarks which would limit the Company's ability to
                  protect those Trademarks.
         (e)      Purchaser will immediately notify the Company in writing
                  if any claim of infringement is brought against Purchaser
                  in respect to the use of the Trademarks, or if Purchaser
                  is aware of or suspects any infringement of the Trademarks
                  by another party. The Company reserves the right in its
                  sole discretion to institute any proceedings against any
                  such third party infringers and Purchaser shall refrain
                  from doing so. The Company shall control the defense or
                  prosecution of any actions concerning infringement of its
                  Trademarks. Purchaser shall cooperate fully with the
                  Company in any action taken by the Company against any
                  such third parties, provided that all expenses of such
                  action, including Purchaser's, shall be borne by the
                  Company and all damages which may be awarded therefrom
                  shall accrue to the Company.
         Any unauthorized use of the Trademarks by Purchaser shall be a
         material breach of this Agreement, entitling the Company to
         terminate this Agreement and to bring an action for infringement of
         the rights of the Company in and to the Trademarks.

9.2      Patents And Copyrights. No rights or licenses are granted to Purchaser
         ----------------------
         herein by the Company, expressly or by implication, under any patents
         or copyrights.
         (a)      The Company shall defend Purchaser against any claim that
                  any Product provided by the Company hereunder infringe any
                  patent, copyright or other analogous right enforceable in
                  the United States, and the Company shall pay any resulting
                  damages, costs and attorney's fees finally awarded by a
                  court or any resulting settlement agreed upon by the
                  Company, provided that Purchaser promptly notifies the
                  Company in writing of the claim and, further provided,
                  that the Company has sole control of the defense and of
                  all related settlement negotiations.
         (b)      The Company's obligation under this Section is subject to
                  the condition that if any Product becomes, or in the
                  Company's opinion is likely to become, the subject of such
                  a claim, Purchaser shall permit the Company, at its option
                  and expense, either to procure the right of Purchaser to
                  continue marketing or using the item involved or to
                  replace or modify it so that it becomes non-infringing. If
                  neither of the foregoing alternatives is available in
                  terms which are reasonable in the Company's sole judgment,
                  Purchaser hereby agrees that, upon written request by the
                  Company, Purchaser shall return the item involved to the
                  Company. In

                  such a case, the Company agrees to grant a credit or refund
                  to Purchaser for the amount of charges of the returned
                  Product, as well as any costs of return and applicable
                  taxes thereon.
         (c)      The Company shall have no obligation to Purchaser for any
                  liability to third parties for any claim based upon any
                  alteration or modification of any Product or based upon
                  the combination, operation or use of any Product with
                  equipment, data or programming not supplied by the
                  Company.

     The foregoing states the entire obligation of the Company in regard of
     all intellectual property matters and Purchaser shall have no right to
     act in the Company's name or on the Company's behalf, with respect to
     infringement of patents, copyrights or analogous rights relating to the
     Products.

                         SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION

         initiated by any person or entity, arising from, related to or in
         any way connected with (i) Purchaser's conduct under this Agreement
         and any other applicable agreements; (ii) Purchaser's breach of
         this Agreement; (iii) Purchaser's failure to comply with applicable

         Agreement by the Company.

                  With respect to the claims, demands and other actions
                  referred to in Paragraph 10.1, above, to the extent that
                  any such claim, demand or other action relates to:
                  (1)      any Product sold by Purchaser pursuant to any
                           agreement containing warranties or other
                           commitments which exceed those warranties
                           or commitments which the Company extends
                           hereunder, the Company's obligation to indemnify
                           Purchaser shall be equal to the liabilities,
                           losses, damages, costs and expenses for which
                           Purchaser would have been liable if the agreement
                           pursuant to which Purchaser sold the Product
                           involved had not contained such additional
                           warranties or other commitments;
                  (2)      the failure by Purchaser to deliver a Product by
                           a delivery date committed by the Company, the
                           Company's obligation to indemnify Purchaser, if
                           any, shall not exceed the liabilities, losses,
                           damages, costs and expenses for which Purchaser
                           would have been liable if the agreement pursuant
                           to which Purchaser sold the Product involved had
                           contained provisions substantially identical to
                           those of Section 11.12 "Force Majeure", hereof.
         (b)      Certain Purchaser Actions:
                  -------------------------
                  In any event, the Company shall not be obliged to
                  indemnify Purchaser from any such liability, loss, damage,
                  cost or expense to the extent that such liability, loss,
                  damage, cost or expense was caused by any intentional or
                  grossly negligent act or omission or misrepresentation, or
                  by any breach of obligations specified in this Agreement
                  by Purchaser.

10.3     Allocation of Expenses
         ----------------------
         In the event a claim is based partially on an indemnified claim
         described in Section 10.1 and/or Section 10.2, above, and partially
         on a non-indemnified claim, or is based partially on a claim
         described in Section 10.1, above, and partially on a claim
         described in Section 10.2, above, any payments and reasonable
         attorney fees incurred in connection with such claims are to be
         apportioned between the Parties in accordance with the degree of
         cause attributable to each Party.

10.4     Indemnification Procedure
         -------------------------
         The liability of Purchaser and of the Company under Section 10.1
         and Section 10.2, is subject to Purchaser or the Company (as the
         case may be): (a) having promptly notified the other of any claim,
         demand or other action likely to give rise to a claim against the
         other; and (b) giving the other all freedom either to join the
         defense, or to direct such defense, with a right to come to a
         settlement if the other so wishes.

11.2     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
         -------------
         accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida, United
         States of America, applicable to agreements made and to be
         performed entirely within Florida, without regard to the conflicts
         of law principles of such State. Purchaser acknowledges, represents
         and warrants that it is aware of the laws of the State of Florida,
         and has been duly advised and willfully chooses the laws of the
         State of Florida as the governing law for this Agreement.

         The Parties hereby agree that neither the "United Nations
         Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods", nor
         the Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale
         of Goods and the Protocol amending such Convention, done at Vienna
         April 11, 1980, shall govern the rights, duties and obligations of
         the Parties under this Agreement.

11.3     Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process
         -------------------------------------------
         (a)      Both of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
                  submit, for themselves and their property, to the
                  jurisdiction of any court of the State of Florida sitting
                  in Palm Beach County, Florida, or any Federal court of the
                  United States of America sitting in the Southern District
                  of the State of Florida, and any appellate court from any
                  such court, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out
                  of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or
                  enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Parties
                  hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
                  all claims in respect of any such suit, action or
                  proceeding may be heard and determined in such State of
                  Florida court or Federal court. It shall be a condition
                  precedent to each Party's right to bring any such suit,
                  action or proceeding that such suit, action or proceeding,
                  in the first instance, be brought in such State of Florida
                  court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal
                  court (unless such suit, action or proceeding is brought
                  solely to obtain discovery or to enforce a judgment), and
                  if each of such State of Florida court and such Federal
                  court refuses to accept jurisdiction with respect thereto,
                  such suit, action or proceeding may be brought in any
                  other court of competent jurisdiction. No Party to this
                  Agreement may move to (1) transfer any such suit, action
                  or proceeding from such State of Florida court or any
                  Federal court of the United States of America sitting in
                  the State of Florida, to another jurisdiction, (2)
                  consolidate any such suit, action or proceeding brought in
                  such State of Florida court or Federal court with a suit,
                  action or proceeding in another jurisdiction, or (3)
                  dismiss any such suit or proceeding brought in such State
                  of Florida court or any Federal court of the United States
                  of America sitting in the State of Florida, for the
                  purpose of bringing the same in another jurisdiction. Each
                  Party agrees that a final judgment in any such suit,
                  action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
                  enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment
                  or in any other manner provided by law.
         (b)      Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
                  waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and
                  effectively do so, any objection which it may now or
                  hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action
                  or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement
                  in any State of Florida court sitting in Palm Beach
                  County, Florida, or any Federal court sitting in the
                  Southern District of the State

                  of Florida. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives,
                  to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
                  inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action
                  or proceeding in such court and further waives the right
                  to object, with respect to such suit, action or
                  proceeding, that such court does not have jurisdiction
                  over such Party.
         (c)      Each of the Parties, hereby irrevocably consents to
                  service of process in the manner provided for notices in
                  Section 11.5 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement will affect

         of the affected party; provided, however, that the Party so
         failing to perform shall (i) as soon as possible, inform the other
         Party of the occurrence of the circumstances preventing or delaying
         the performance of its obligations, and describe at a reasonable
         level of detail the circumstances causing such delay, and (ii)
         exert reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure or overcome any of such
         cases and to resume performance of its covenants with all possible

         performance will be under no liability for loss or damages suffered
         by the other Party thereby.

         delivered, either Party may terminate this Agreement by written
         notice to the other Party. Such termination shall be effective
         thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the written notice.

        the Products in the Territory, under the Company's name and
        Trademarks. Distributor hereby accepts such appointment and
        expressly acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to this
        Agreement, Distributor shall only have the rights of Distributor
        expressly granted by the Company hereunder. Distributor further
        agrees that it shall, at all times, and at its own expense,
        carry out to the best of its ability a merchandising policy
        designed to promote and maintain the excellence of quality and
        enhance the goodwill which is now associated with the name and
        reputation of the Company and its Products. Distributor
        acknowledges that, by accepting this appointment, it will be
        subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
        to the Company's marketing, sales and merchandising policies as
        they now exist or as they may be altered, at the Company's sole
        discretion, from time to time, provided, however, that the
        Company shall not make any changes that impose a material burden

        or to improve the prospects of the business. Distributor's
        failure to operate in accordance with such policies shall
        constitute a material breach entitling the Company to terminate
        this Agreement in accordance with Section 16 hereof.

2.2     Distributor agrees that (i) it will market, promote and sell the
        Products solely to Resellers, if any, and/or Users within the
        Territory; (ii) whenever Distributor places orders for Products
        it will do so solely under the Company's authorized form of
        Purchase Order, which expressly references and incorporates the
        terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (iii) all such
        Purchase Orders must be issued and signed by Distributor and
        must be accepted in writing signed by the Company. Distributor
        further agrees that it will market, promote, and offer for sale
        solely those Products the Company specifically approves under
        this Agreement, as such are listed in EXHIBIT "B" hereto, or in
        any amendment that, from time to time, the Company makes to it
        in a writing signed by the Company, and that any Purchase Order
        Distributor submits to the Company will list only such approved
        Products. Distributor shall not, without the prior written
        consent of the Company, sell, market or distribute any version
        of the Products other than the version the Company shall
        designate from time to time as the most current version.
        Distributor shall not sell, advertise or solicit orders for the
        Products outside the Territory and shall promptly relay any such
        inquiries to the Company.

2.3     Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting or
        placing any restrictions whatsoever on the Company's right (i)
        to market, promote, distribute, license or sell any Products
        outside the Territory to or for the benefit or use of any
        person, firm or company the Company may select in its sole
        discretion, notwithstanding that any such person, firm or
        company may intend to use or resell the same within the
        Territory; or (ii) to appoint other distributors of the Products
        outside the Territory that may sell Products outside the
        Territory which Products may be resold in the Territory.
        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will instruct its
        other distributors not to export Products to the Territory.
        If the Company is contacted by someone or some entity in or
        out of the Territory requesting to buy Products in the Territory
        (i.e. shipped to within the Territory), then the Company shall
        refer such person or entity to Distributor.

2.4     In partial consideration of the distribution rights granted by
        the Company to the Distributor hereunder, Distributor shall pay
        to the Company a non-recurring and non-refundable fee in the
        amount of $1 (ONE DOLLAR) (the "Distribution Fee").

        The Distribution Fee shall be due and payable in U.S. Dollars on

        earned by the Company when paid.

        Distributor hereby expressly agrees that the Distributor Fee

        against or applied to amounts due for any Products ordered by
        Distributor under this Agreement, including without limitation,
        Products ordered pursuant to Section 7.2 below.

                    SECTION 3.  PARTIES' RELATIONSHIP

The Parties hereby agree that:
3.1     Distributor is an independent contractor and not an agent of the
        Company. This Agreement does not constitute a joint venture,
        agency or partnership between the Parties, nor does it create an
        employer-employee relationship. Neither Party is a legal
        representative, partner, franchisee, employee or associate of
        the other, legally or otherwise.

3.2     Neither Party has the power to assume nor will assume or create
        any obligations on behalf of the other, nor make any
        representations or warranties about the other. Distributor has
        no power, express or implied, to accept any order on behalf of
        the Company or to bind the Company, either directly or
        indirectly, with respect to any order or with respect to any
        other contract or matter whatsoever.

3.3     As an independent contractor, Distributor is free to select its
        sales personnel and establish their compensation, and manage its
        business as it deems appropriate, provided such management is
        not in contravention of any policies prescribed by the Company
        or in contravention of the terms of this Agreement. Distributor
        may appoint sub-distributors within the Territory, provided that
        Distributor informs any such sub-distributor of the applicable
        rules and regulations (both contained herein and any other
        applicable rules and regulations) and Distributor is responsible
        for any breach thereof by any such sub-distributor.

                 SECTION 4.  GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF DISTRIBUTOR

        terms and conditions. With respect to the marketing and
        distribution of the Products, Distributor shall have the

        obtain shipping instructions and a return material authorization
        from the Company for the return of any item under this warranty

         change, modification or new law which may affect the performance of
         Distributor or the Company with respect to both Parties'
         obligations hereunder.

         auditor, may conduct a review of Distributor's compliance with this
         Agreement on Distributor's premises during Distributor's business
         hours. If, during the Company's review of Distributor's compliance
         with this Agreement, the Company finds that Distributor has
         materially breached the terms of this relationship, the Company
         shall be entitled to exercise all its rights under law and equity

         from the Effective Date (the "Term").

         Any rights and licenses granted to Distributor hereunder shall

         delivered to the Company at least thirty (30) days prior to the
         expiration of the Term, the Company, in its own discretion, may
         negotiate in good faith with Distributor for a renewal of the
         Agreement on such terms as the Parties may mutually agree, provided

         agreements between the Company and Distributor, (ii) has met the
         Quota requirements set forth herein; and (iii) has satisfied all
         monetary obligations owed by Distributor to the Company.

                         SECTION 13. CONFIDENTIALITY

13.1     Confidential Information. Distributor agrees that the Company has a
         ------------------------
         proprietary interest in any and all Company Confidential
         Information provided to Distributor by the Company in connection
         with this Agreement or otherwise, whether such information is in
         written, oral or visual form.

13.2     Protection Of Company Information. Distributor acknowledges and
         ---------------------------------
         agrees that all Company Confidential Information is confidential
         and proprietary to the Company. In this regard,
         (a)      Distributor agrees to use Company Confidential Information
                  solely in the discharging of its responsibilities hereunder;

         (b)      Distributor may disclose Company Confidential Information to
                  its employees who have the need to know such information;

                  Distributor must have an appropriate confidentiality
                  agreement with any such employee, binding such employee on
                  the terms of this Section 13. For a period of three (3) years

                  to others (including but not limited to any affiliates of
                  Distributor) unless, prior to such disclosure, Distributor
                  has an appropriate agreement with the other party and such
                  disclosure is approved by the Company in writing. All such
                  appropriate agreements must enable Distributor to meet its
                  obligations hereunder and to enforce the terms and conditions
                  of this Section;

         (d)      Distributor shall keep all writings, documents or other
                  media containing Company Confidential Information secure
                  in locked files at all times, when not in use, to prevent
                  their loss or unauthorized disclosure, take action to
                  prevent unauthorized access to any of its premises and
                  comply with all other reasonable security procedures and
                  measures which the Company may recommend from time to
                  time;
         (e)      Distributor shall segregate Company Confidential

         (f)      Distributor's obligations with respect to Company
                  Confidential Information will not apply to any information

                  of confidence; (ii) is independently developed; (iii) is
                  or becomes publicly available without breach of this
                  Agreement; (iv) Distributor rightfully receives from a
                  third party without obligation of confidence; or (v) is
                  released for disclosure with the Company's written
                  consent;
         (g)      Distributor shall, upon termination or expiration of this
                  Agreement, deliver to the Company all written or
                  descriptive materials which contain Company Confidential
                  Information;
         (h)      From time to time, the Company may provide Distributor
                  with copies of documents labeled "For Internal Use Only".
                  Distributor agrees to limit use of these documents to the
                  performance of its responsibilities hereunder and not to
                  make the documents available to any third party.

13.3     Protection Of Distributor Information
         -------------------------------------
         (a)      Distributor understands that the Company does not wish to
                  receive any information which Distributor, or any third
                  party, considers confidential or proprietary. Information
                  that Distributor supplies to the Company will not be
                  treated as confidential by the Company unless, before
                  receipt, the Company agrees in writing to do so.
         (b)      The Company may use any information which Distributor
                  makes available to the Company, designated as confidential
                  by Distributor, and the Company may authorize its
                  affiliates to use such information in their operations;
                  provided, however, that the Company shall instruct its
                  personnel to keep such information confidential by using
                  the same care and discretion that it uses with similar
                  data which the Company designates as confidential;
                  further, the Company shall not disclose any such
                  confidential information by publication or otherwise to
                  any third party without the prior written permission of
                  Distributor.
         (c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company conducts an
                  inspection in accordance with its rights pursuant hereto,
                  any materials inspected will be treated as confidential
                  and the Company will not disclose any of them unless
                  required by law to do so.

         of this Agreement and within the Territory, the designation
         "Distributor of VeriChip Products", in its activities hereunder.

         (a)      Distributor is not granted any right or license to use the
                  Trademarks or any other trademark or tradename owned by
                  the Company in such a manner as to cause confusion
                  concerning the origin of any goods or services.
                  Promotional, advertising and other materials to be used by
                  Distributor, which incorporate or display any Trademarks,
                  other than such material which has been supplied to
                  Distributor by the Company, shall be subject to the
                  Company's guidelines or instructions. Distributor agrees
                  to change or correct, at Distributor's expense, any such
                  promotional advertising or other material, which in the
                  Company's reasonable judgment is inaccurate, objectionable
                  or misleading, or misuses a trademark or tradename owned
                  by the Company.
         (b)      Distributor hereby acknowledges the Company's exclusive
                  right, title and interest in and to the Trademarks.
                  Distributor acknowledges and agrees that, except for the
                  limited use of the Trademarks for purposes of marketing
                  and distributing the Products in conformity with this
                  Agreement, Distributor will acquire no right, title or
                  interest of any kind or nature whatsoever in or to the
                  Trademarks or the goodwill associated therewith.
                  Distributor recognizes that the Trademarks and any
                  goodwill attached thereto, belong to the Company, and
                  Distributor understands and agrees that Distributor's use
                  of the Trademarks shall inure to the benefit of the
                  Company. Distributor shall not disparage, bring into
                  disrepute or reduce the value of any Trademarks.
                  Distributor shall not at any time do or permit any act to
                  be done which may in any way impair the rights of the
                  Company in the Trademarks.
         (c)      Distributor shall not, without the Company's prior written
                  consent, remove or alter any Trademarks, trade names,
                  patent numbers, serial numbers, notices, labels, tags or
                  other identifying marks, symbols or legends affixed to any
                  Products, containers or packages.
         (d)      Distributor undertakes fully and without any reservation
                  whatsoever to render to the Company all assistance as may
                  be necessary in connection with any matter pertaining to
                  the protection of the Trademarks, including, without
                  limitation, to assert no interest in or to, and to
                  withdraw or terminate any interest in or to, any
                  Trademarks which would limit the Company's ability to
                  protect those Trademarks.
         (e)      Distributor shall inform the Company of all registration
                  and recording requirements with respect to the Trademarks
                  within any country of the Territory. All registrations of
                  any Trademarks and domain names which Distributor may
                  assist the Company to obtain within the Territory will be
                  in the name of the Company. Distributor shall not
                  undertake any activities to attempt to register any of the
                  Company's Trademarks without the Company's prior written
                  consent. Distributor shall not use, employ or attempt to
                  register any trademark or tradename which, in the sole
                  judgment of the Company, is confusingly similar to any of
                  the Trademarks.
         (f)      Distributor will immediately notify the Company in writing
                  if any claim of infringement is brought against
                  Distributor in respect to the use of the Trademarks, or if
                  Distributor is aware of or suspects any infringement of
                  the Trademarks by another party. The Company reserves the
                  right in its sole discretion to institute any proceedings
                  against any such third party infringers and Distributor
                  shall refrain from doing so. The Company shall control the
                  defense or prosecution of any actions concerning
                  infringement of its Trademarks. Distributor shall
                  cooperate fully with the Company in any action taken by
                  the Company against any such third parties, provided that
                  all expenses of such action, including Distributor's,
                  shall be borne by the Company and all damages which may be
                  awarded therefrom shall accrue to the Company.

         (g)      Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement,
                  Distributor shall forthwith cease and desist from use of
                  the Trademarks in any manner. In addition, Distributor
                  hereby empowers the Company and agrees to reasonably
                  assist the Company, if requested, to cancel, revoke or
                  withdraw any governmental registration or authorization
                  permitting Distributor to use the Trademarks in the
                  Territory.
         Any unauthorized use of the Trademarks by Distributor shall be a
         material breach of this Agreement, entitling the Company to
         terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 16 hereof and
         to bring an action for infringement of the rights of the Company in
         and to the Trademarks.

14.2     Patents And Copyrights. No rights or licenses are granted to
         ----------------------
         Distributor herein by the Company, expressly or by implication,
         under any patents or copyrights.
         (a)      The Company shall defend Distributor against any claim
                  that any Product provided by the Company hereunder
                  infringe any patent, copyright or other analogous right
                  enforceable in the Territory, and the Company shall pay
                  any resulting damages, costs and attorney's fees finally
                  awarded by a court or any resulting settlement agreed upon
                  by the Company, provided that Distributor promptly
                  notifies the Company in writing of the claim and, further
                  provided, that the Company has sole control of the defense
                  and of all related settlement negotiations.
         (b)      The Company's obligation under this Section is subject to
                  the condition that if any Product becomes, or in the
                  Company's opinion is likely to become, the subject of such
                  a claim, Distributor shall permit the Company, at its
                  option and expense, either to procure the right of
                  Distributor to continue marketing or using the item
                  involved or to replace or modify it so that it becomes
                  non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing alternatives
                  is available in terms which are reasonable in the
                  Company's sole judgment, Distributor hereby agrees that,
                  upon written request by the Company, Distributor shall
                  return the item involved to the Company. In such a case,
                  the Company agrees to grant a credit or refund to
                  Distributor for the amount of charges of the returned
                  Product, as well as any costs of return and applicable
                  taxes thereon.
         (c)      The Company shall have no obligation to Distributor for
                  any liability to third parties for any claim based upon
                  any alteration or modification of any Product or based
                  upon the combination, operation or use of any Product with
                  equipment, data or programming not supplied by the
                  Company.

     The foregoing states the entire obligation of the Company in regard of
     all intellectual property matters and Distributor shall have no right
     to act in the Company's name or on the Company's behalf, with respect
     to infringement of patents, copyrights or analogous rights relating to
     the Products.

                         SECTION 15. INDEMNIFICATION

15.1     Distributor Indemnification. In addition to damages for which
         ---------------------------

         below, Distributor shall indemnify, defend and hold the Company,
         its affiliates and all officers, directors, employees and agents

         reasonable attorney's fees, expenses and settlement costs,
         including appeal proceedings) (collectively, "Damages"), which the
         Company or any of its Affiliates and all officers, directors,
         employees and agents thereof may at any time sustain or incur by
         reason of or in connection with any claim, demand or other action

         misrepresentation, or by breach of obligations specified in this
         Agreement by the Company.

                           Distributor would have been liable if the
                           agreement pursuant to which Distributor sold the
                           Product involved had not contained such

                           damages, costs and expenses for which Distributor
                           would have been liable if the agreement pursuant
                           to which Distributor sold the Product involved

                  misrepresentation, or by any breach of obligations
                  specified in this Agreement by Distributor.

         with the degree of cause attributable to each Party.

15.4     Indemnification Procedure
         -------------------------
         The liability of Distributor and of the Company under Section 15.1
         and Section 15.2, is subject to Distributor or the Company (as the
         case may be): (a) having promptly notified the other of any claim,
         demand or other action likely to give rise to a claim against the
         other; and (b) giving the other all freedom either to join the
         defense, or to direct such defense, with a right to come to a
         settlement if the other so wishes.

                    SECTION 16. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

         Distributor or the Company may terminate this Agreement, prior to
         expiration, with or without cause pursuant to the terms of this
         Section 16. "Cause" for purposes of this Section is the breach by
         any of the Parties of a material term of this Agreement.

16.1     Termination by Distributor. If the Company materially breaches this
         --------------------------
         Agreement and if such breach remains uncured for thirty (30) days
         after Distributor gives the Company written notice of such breach,
         Distributor may terminate this Agreement for Cause by delivery of
         written notice of termination to the Company, effective thirty (30)
         days after the date of such notice. The Company may avoid
         termination by curing its breach to Distributor's satisfaction
         within the thirty- (30) day cure period.

16.2     Termination by the Company. The Company may terminate this
         --------------------------
         Agreement for Cause if Distributor materially breaches this
         Agreement, by delivering to Distributor written notice of
         termination, which shall become effective as follows:

         (a)      Upon Notice and Reasonable Cure Period: If the Company
                  --------------------------------------
                  terminates for Cause, the Company may, in the Company's
                  sole discretion, allow Distributor a reasonable time
                  period to cure its breach, if the Company believes such
                  breach is a curable breach. The Company's written notice
                  of termination will indicate the time period the Company
                  allows Distributor to cure its breach ("Cure Period"),
                  which may be thirty (30) days or such a longer period as
                  applicable law may require. Distributor may avoid
                  termination by curing its breach within such Cure Period
                  to the Company's satisfaction. If Distributor fails to
                  cure its breach within the Cure Period, this Agreement
                  shall terminate without further notice to Distributor
                  effective immediately upon the expiration of the Cure
                  Period, or as provided by applicable law.

                  Distributor's material breach of this Agreement which the
                  Company may find susceptible of cure include the
                  following: If Distributor (1) fails to substantially
                  comply with any of the terms and conditions of this
                  Agreement, other related agreements and forms attached
                  hereto and thereto; (2) fails to meet the minimum Quota
                  requirements within the specified period; (3) fails,
                  refuses or neglects to obtain the Company's prior written
                  approval or consent as required in this Agreement; (4)
                  fails, refuses, or neglects to promptly pay when due any
                  amounts Distributor may owe to the Company hereunder; (5)
                  fails to submit when due any reports, financial
                  information, or any other information or documents
                  required under this Agreement; (6) fails to observe or
                  maintain any of the standards or procedures the Company
                  prescribes herein or

                  otherwise in writing; or (7) in the Company's sole
                  discretion, Distributor engages or has engaged in any
                  illegal, fraudulent, unfair or deceptive business practices.

         (b)      Upon Written Notice of Termination. If Distributor
                  ----------------------------------
                  materially breaches this Agreement, and the Company, in
                  its sole discretion, deems that Distributor's material
                  breach is incurable, the Company may terminate this
                  Agreement without affording Distributor any opportunity to
                  cure, by delivering to Distributor the Company's written
                  notice of termination which shall become effective
                  immediately upon delivery, or as required by applicable
                  law.

                  Distributor's incurable material breach of this Agreement
                  include the following: (1) If Distributor has falsely made
                  any of the representations and warranties set forth in
                  this Agreement, or knowingly maintains false books or
                  records or submits any false reports to the Company; or
                  (2) Distributor (and/or its principals) are convicted of a
                  felony, a fraud, a crime involving moral turpitude, or
                  found liable in a civil claim for fraud or any unfair or
                  deceptive act or practice; or (3) Distributor (and/or its
                  owners) purports to transfer any rights or obligations
                  under this Agreement or any interest in Distributor to a
                  third party, without the Company's prior written consent,
                  or (4) Distributor discloses or divulges, directly or
                  indirectly, any information the Company may provide to
                  Distributor as Company Confidential Information; or (5)
                  Distributor forfeits its legal right to do or to transact
                  business in the Territory; or (6) Distributor breaches any
                  terms hereof providing for immediate termination of this
                  Agreement; or (7) Distributor repudiates this Agreement.

         (c)      Automatic Termination. Subject to applicable law, this
                  ---------------------
                  Agreement and each and all rights granted to Distributor
                  hereunder shall immediately and automatically terminate
                  upon the occurrence of Distributor's insolvency,
                  bankruptcy, moratorium, dissolution, liquidation or
                  reorganization, or upon the occurrence of any other events
                  that in the Company's sole discretion may substantially
                  affect Distributor's ability to carry out its obligations
                  under this Agreement.

16.3     Upon termination or expiration of the term of this Agreement or any
         renewal thereof, neither Party shall have any further rights or
         obligations hereunder; provided, that, expiration or termination of
         this Agreement shall not relieve Distributor or the Company of
         their respective obligations incurred prior thereto and that any
         obligations, which by their nature extend beyond expiration or
         termination of a contract, such as those concerning intellectual
         property rights, indemnification and limitation of liabilities
         shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement and
         remain in effect until fulfilled, and shall apply to the Parties'
         respective successors and assignees. Distributor hereby agrees that
         if the Company permits Distributor to perform certain activities
         after this Agreement expires or terminates, Distributor will do so
         under the terms of this Agreement.

16.4     Distributor and the Company agree that neither Distributor nor the
         Company will be liable for any claims or losses the other may incur
         by early termination of this Agreement in accordance with the
         provisions of this Section. Distributor hereby agrees that, in the
         event of termination or upon expiration of this Agreement, the
         Company shall have no obligation whatsoever to Distributor, or to
         any employee of Distributor, for compensation or for damages of any
         kind, whether on account of the loss by Distributor or such
         employee of present or prospective sales, investments, compensation
         or goodwill or otherwise.

                  enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Parties
                  hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
                  all claims in respect of any such suit, action or

17.13    Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be liable for failure to perform
         -------------
         or delay in performing any obligation under this Agreement, except
         the obligation to make payments when due, if such failure or delay
         is due to force majeure, including, but not limited to, war,
         embargo, riot, insurrection, sabotage or other civil unrest; fire,
         explosion, flood or other natural disaster; accident or breakdown
         of machinery; unavailability of fuel, labor, containers, or

         disturbances; government restraints or any other cause beyond the
         control of the affected party; provided, however, that the Party so
         failing to perform shall (i) as soon as possible, inform the other
         Party of the occurrence of the circumstances preventing or delaying
         the performance of its obligations, and describe at a reasonable
         level of detail the circumstances causing such delay, and (ii)
         exert reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure or overcome any of such
         cases and to resume performance of its covenants with all possible
         speed. In such event, the non-performing Party will be excused from
         any further performance or observance of the obligation(s) so
         affected for as long as such circumstances prevail and such Party
         continues to use its best efforts to recommence performance or
         observance whenever and to whatever extent possible without delay.
         In the event that, by operation of law or governmental decree, it
         becomes illegal to market and sell a Product in the Territory,
         Distributor shall be relieved of its obligations under this
         Agreement (other than the obligation to make any payment due
         hereunder) only to the extent that they relate to such Product. Any
         Party so delayed in its performance will be under no liability for
         loss or damages suffered by the other Party thereby.

         Either Party may convene a meeting between the Parties to discuss
         the force majeure and its effect on any obligation under this
         Agreement. The Parties shall seek to modify the relevant provisions
         in order to accommodate the circumstances caused by the force
         majeure. If the Parties fail to agree on such modifications within
         thirty (30) calendar days after notice of the force majeure is
         delivered, either Party may terminate this Agreement by written
         notice to the other Party. Such termination shall be effective
         thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the written notice.
