      in
      Tampa, Florida (hereinafter called the "Company").

      I T N E S S E T H

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company desires to retain the services of Executive to render his services
      to Company on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

     

    WHEREAS,
      Executive is agreeable to rendering such services to the Company on the terms
      and conditions hereinafter set forth;

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein
      contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree
      as
      follows:

     

    1.  Employment
      Term, Duties
      and Acceptance

     

    (a)  Company
      hereby retains
      Executive as Company's  Chief Financial Officer for a period of three
      (3) years, commencing on the date hereof (the "Employment Period"), subject
      to
      earlier termination as hereinafter provided, to render his services to Company
      upon the terms and conditions herein contained, in such executive capacity.
      In
      such executive capacity, Executive shall report and be responsible to the
      Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Board of
      Directors.

     

    (b)  Executive
      hereby accepts
      the foregoing employment and agrees to render his services to Company on a
      full-time basis in such a manner as directed by the Company’s Chief Executive
      Officer as to reflect Executive’s best efforts to the end that the Company's
      operations are properly managed. In furtherance of Executive performing the
      duties assigned to him under this Agreement, the Company agrees to provide
      Executive with a support staff reasonably required by Executive so as to enable
      him to carry out such duties.

     

    
      2.  Compensation

    

     

    (a)  During
      the first year of
      the term of this Agreement, Executive shall receive compensation of $360,000
      per
      year.  This compensation may, at Executive's election, be accrued, in
      whole or in part.  Executive’s compensation shall be payable in
      accordance with the general payroll practices of the Company as are from time
      to
      time, in effect, less such deductions or amounts as shall be required to be
      withheld by applicable law or regulation. On each yearly anniversary date of
      the
      execution of this Agreement  (hereinafter sometimes called the
      "Anniversary Date," in each yearly instance) the Board of Directors shall review
      the services provided by Executive to determine the amount that Executive's
      salary shall be increased for the forthcoming yearly period. Such increase
      shall
      be no less than an amount equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer
      Price
      Index or such other similar index reflective of the cost of living increase
      in
      the Orlando, Florida metropolitan area from the beginning of yearly period
      to
      the end of the yearly period with respect to the Consumer Price Index applicable
      to the said metropolitan area, times Executive's base compensation in effect
      during the said yearly period. The sum resulting by way of this increase to
      the
      Executive's base compensation shall, for the then immediately succeeding period
      be considered the Executive's base compensation. The Board of Directors shall
      also determine on an annual (fiscal or calendar year, as the case may be) basis,
      the amount, if any, of bonus or incentives to be paid to Executive. Provided,
      however, that Executive shall receive a special bonus ("special bonus") in
      an
      amount equal to one (1) percent of the Company's pre-tax profits from the
      preceding year (as determined by the application of generally accepted
      accounting principles), up to the first one-million dollars of such profits;
      plus an additional sum equal to two, and (2) percent of the Company's pre-tax
      profits for all sums over one-million dollars  The special bonus shall
      be paid within thirty (30) days following determination thereof, which
      determination shall be made as soon as practicable.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        1

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (b)  Executive
      shall receive a
      sign-on bonus of Thirty Five Thousand (35,000) shares of the Company’s Class A
      common stock (the “shares”) which shares shall be issued and vested in the
      Executive on the 91st day following
      the
      execution of this Agreement.  In the event the Company files a form of
      Registration Statement, as that term is generally
      understood,  registering shares of its Class A common stock at any
      time following the issuance of the shares to Executive but prior to a date
      being
      one year thereafter, the Company shall, at Executive’s request, include
      Executive’s shares in such Registration Statement provided the Executive agrees
      to sell such shares only in accordance with the then existing Rule 144 selling
      formula for shares held more than one year but less than two years.

     

    (c)  Executive
      shall be
      entitled to reasonable paid vacation time, sick leave and time to attend
      professional meetings comparable to that offered the executives in comparable
      positions.

     

    (d)  Executive
      shall be
      entitled (subject to the terms and conditions of particular plans and programs)
      to all fringe benefits afforded to other senior executives of the Company,
      including, but not by way of limitation, bonuses and the right to participate
      in
      any pension, stock option, retirement and, unless otherwise covered by a group
      policy (as opposed to an individual policy owned and paid for by Executive
      and/or his wife and/or a company of which either of them own 100% of stock),
      major medical, group health, disability, accident and life insurance, relocation
      reimbursement, and other employee benefit programs made generally available,
      from time to time, by the Company.  The Company shall reimburse the
      Executive’s reasonable health insurance until such time Company can provide
      Executive with appropriate health care coverage based on Executive’s specific
      health care needs.

     

    (e)  Company
      shall pay or
      reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of
      his
      services under this Agreement during the Employment Period, upon presentation
      of
      expense statements, vouchers or such other supporting documentation as may
      reasonably be required.

     

    3.  Disability

     

    (a)  Upon
      the disability, as
      defined in subparagraph 3(b) hereof, of Executive during the Employment Period,
      Company may, in its sole discretion, terminate Executive's employment; provided
      that if the Company elects to so terminate Executive's employment, Executive
      shall be entitled to receive, accrued but unpaid salary, expense reimbursement
      and bonuses, the proceeds of any disability insurance policy plus an amount
      from
      the Company monthly which, when added to the amount received by the Executive
      from any disability policy in effect for the Executive at the time of his
      disability will equal the Executive's salary for a twelve-month period following
      the date of termination, as if the termination had not occurred. Such
      termination shall have no effect on the Company's obligation to pay the special
      bonus referred to hereinbefore. Provided, however, in the event Executive
      partially perform and discharge the duties previously performed by him for
      Company, nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from continuing his duties
      in a part-time capacity, at a level of Compensation to be determined at that
      time.

     

    (b)  For
      purposes of this
      Agreement the term "disability" shall mean Executive's inability to continue
      to
      materially and substantially perform and discharge the duties previously
      required of him on behalf of the Company for an aggregate period exceeding
      three
      (3) consecutive months within any twelve (12) month consecutive
      period.

     

    (c)  In
      the event of a dispute
      between the parties as to what constitutes a disability, such dispute shall
      be
      finally determined by a person mutually agreed upon by Executive and Company.
      If
      a mutually acceptable person cannot be selected, such designations shall be
      made
      by Executive and Company each choosing a person, which person shall then
      mutually select a third person (collectively called the "panel"). The panel's
      determination shall be made by majority vote and such determination shall be
      deemed binding and conclusive. The parties agree to fully cooperate with
      whatever procedures and examinations may be required in order to allow the
      panel
      to make its determination.

    4.  Termination
      of
      Employment

     

    (a)  (i)
      In the event Fifty
      (50) Percent or more of the equity securities of the Company are acquired by
      any
      single person or identifiable group, as defined by the applicable rules and
      regulations under the Security and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and in
      the
      further event that Executive's employment is terminated, by either the Company
      or the Executive, within twelve (12) months following such event, except if
      such
      termination is by reason of "cause" (as that term is defined at paragraph 4(c)
      hereafter, or (ii) in the event Executive terminates his employment by reason
      of
      the uncured breach of this Agreement by Company ("cause"), then, on the
      termination date, Company shall pay (or issue, as the case may be) to Executive
      a lump sum amount equal to the aggregate of (i) accrued but unpaid salary,
      if
      any; (ii) accrued but unpaid expenses, if any; (iii) accrued but unpaid bonuses,
      if any; (iv) unissued warrants, if any; and (v) the total compensation which
      would have been paid to Executive through three full years of compensation
      from
      the date of termination. If the Executive intends to terminate his employment
      with the company for "cause", the "cause" shall be specified in a written notice
      sent by Executive to the Company, and the Company shall be afforded thirty
      (30)
      days or longer, if reasonably required, to cure such breach, if such breach
      is
      capable of being cured.

     

    (b)  In
      the event Fifty (50)
      Percent or more of the equity securities of the Company are acquired by any
      single person or identifiable group, as defined by the applicable rules and
      regulations under the Security and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, all
      unvested securities and benefits attributable to the Executive will immediately
      vest.

     

    (c)  In
      the event of
      misconduct in office by Executive in the performance of his duties hereunder
      (which shall hereinafter be referred to as "Termination for Cause"), Company
      may
      terminate this Agreement by giving two (2) weeks prior written notice to
      Executive identifying the cause of termination and specifying the effective
      date
      of such termination. If Executive is subjected to Termination for Cause, then
      such "cause" shall be specified in such notice and Executive shall be afforded
      thirty (30) days or longer, if reasonably required, to cure such breach, if
      such
      breach is capable of being cured.  If Executive is unable to cure or
      if terminated pursuant to the provisions of paragraph “4.(c)”, Company shall pay
      to Executive the aggregate of (i) accrued but unpaid expenses, if any; and
      (ii)
      the net salary compensation which would have been paid to Executive through
      the
      date of termination. Furthermore, in that event any warrants to be issued
      pursuant to this Agreement, and any options granted pursuant to plans then
      applicable to Executive which have not then vested shall be forfeited as of
      the
      termination date.

     

    (d)  The
      failure of
      Executive’s representations herein to be materially accurate shall give the
      Company the right to terminate Executive’s engagement.

     

    (e)  In
      the event Executive
      resigns or is terminated as an employee of Company, Executive hereby agrees
      that
      his position(s) as officer and director of the Company shall automatically
      end
      as of the date of his resignation or termination of employment.

      Buyer’s shares have an average trading price as determined by subparagraph
      2.2(a) of $5.00 or in excess of $5.00 per share, no adjustment shall be made
      in

    (c)    In

      selling formula for shares held more than one year but less than two

      Stockholders shall deliver to the Buyer the executed Escrow Agreement as
      referred to in paragraph 7 below and such other documents, if any, as the
      parties may deem to be necessary to carry out the intent of this

      duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the
      jurisdiction in which it was incorporated, and is qualified to do business

      to be
      so qualified.  The Company has delivered to the Buyer current, correct

      respectively been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action with respect
      to the Company.  Each transaction document executed and delivered by
      the Company as of the date hereof has been duly executed and delivered by the
      Company and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company,
      enforceable against the Company in accordance with its
      terms.  

     

    4.3    Consents
      and Approvals.  Except for any filings, consents or approvals
      specified on Schedule 4.3 (the “Required Consents”),
      neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the transaction documents
      to which it is or will be a party, nor the performance of the transactions
      performed or to be performed by the Company, will require any filing, consent,
      renegotiation or approval, constitute a default or cause any payment obligation
      to arise under: (a) any Law or Court Order to which the Company is subject;
      (b)
      the Charter Documents or bylaws of the Company; or (c) any material Contract,
      Governmental Permit or other document to which the Company is a party by which

      or other rights of any character (including conversion or preemptive rights)

      securities of the Company.  All of the Shares are duly and validly
      authorized and issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  The
      Stockholders are the record and sole beneficial owners of all of the Shares

      Closing, the Buyer will receive valid title to all of the Shares, free and
      clear

    6.1    Enforceability.
      (a) This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Buyer,
      enforceable against the Buyer in accordance with its terms; and (b) neither
      the
      execution and delivery by the Buyer of this Agreement, nor the performance
      of
      the transactions to be performed by the Buyer hereunder, will require any
      filing, consent or approval by a third party or constitute a Default under
      (i)
      any Regulation or Court Order to which the Buyer is subject, or (ii) any
      Contract or other document to which the Buyer is a party or by which the
      properties or other assets of the Buyer may be subject.

     

    6.2    Accredited
      Investor Status.

     

    (a)    Buyer

      aware of the applicable limitations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
      (the “Securities Act”), relating to the Shares of common stock to be purchased
      (the “Shares”) and that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities
      Act, and that such securities cannot be sold unless they are subsequently
      registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or
      an
      exemption from such registration is available.

     

    (b)    Buyer

    7.    Escrow
      Agreement.  At the Closing, the parties will execute and exchange

      assure the Buyer’s and the Stockholders’ ability to fulfill the intent as
      expressed in paragraph 2.  At or before the Closing, the parties will

      agents, Affiliates and any person who controls any of such persons within the
      meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnified Buyer Party”) from and
      against any liabilities, claims, demands, judgments, losses, costs, damages
      or
      expenses whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’, consultants’ and other
      professional fees and disbursements, nature and description incurred by such
      Indemnified Buyer Party in connection therewith) (collectively, “Damages”) that
      such Indemnified Buyer Party may sustain, suffer or incur and that result from,
      arise out of or relate to: (a) any breach of any of the respective
      representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company or any
      Stockholder; (b) any taxes of the Company with respect to any tax period or
      partial period ending on or before the Closing Date (or for any tax period
      or
      partial period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date to the extent
      allocable to the portion of such period beginning before and ending on the
      Closing Date) and (c) for any undisclosed Liabilities of the Business not set
      forth on Schedule 4.9(a) hereto.  

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        9

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    8.2    By
      the
      Stockholders relating to the Shares.  From and after the Closing
      Date, each Stockholder shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Buyer
      Party from and against any Damages that such Indemnified Buyer Party may
      sustain, suffer or incur and that result from, arise out of or relate to any
      breach of any of such Stockholder’s representations and warranties in Section 5.

     

    8.3    By
      the
      Buyer.  From and after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall indemnify
      and hold harmless the Stockholders and their respective successors and assigns
      (if any), and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders,
      agents, Affiliates and any Person who controls any of such Persons within the
      meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Selling
      Party”) from and against any Damages that such Indemnified Selling Party may
      sustain, suffer or incur and that result from arise out of or relate to: (a)
      any
      breach of any of the respective representations, warranties, covenants or
      agreements of the Buyer contained in this Agreement.

     

    8.4    Claims
      Period.  Any claim for indemnification under this Section 8 shall
      be made by giving a notice to the other party on or before the second
      anniversary of the Closing Date or the claim under this Section 8 shall be
      invalid.  

     

    8.5    Third
      Party Claims.  An Indemnified Party that desires to seek
      indemnification under any part of this Section 8 with respect to any actions,
      suits or other administrative or judicial proceedings (each, an “Action”) that
      may be instituted by a third party shall give each Indemnitor prompt notice
      of a
      third party’s institution of such Action.  After such notice, any
      Indemnitor may, or if so requested by such Indemnified Party, any Indemnitor
      shall, participate in such Action or assume the defense thereof, with counsel
      satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that such Indemnified
      Party shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense
      of
      such Action; and provided, further, that the Indemnitor shall not consent to
      the
      entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, except with the written
      consent of such Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld).  Any failure to give prompt notice under this Section 8.5
      shall not bar an Indemnified Party’s right to claim indemnification under this
      Section 8, except to the extent that an Indemnitor shall have been harmed by
      such failure.

     

    8.6    Effect
      of
      Investigation or Knowledge.  Any claim by a Indemnified Buyer
      Party for indemnification shall not be adversely affected by any investigation
      by or opportunity to investigate afforded to the Buyer.  Each Party
      shall be deemed to be relying on the representations and warranties of any
      other
      Party set forth herein, regardless of any investigation or audit conducted
      before or after the Closing Date or the decision of any Party to consummate
      the
      Transactions contemplated hereby and complete the Closing.

     

    8.7    Contingent
      Claims.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent an Indemnified
      Party from making a claim hereunder for potential or contingent claims or
      demands provided the Claim Notice sets forth the specific basis for any such
      potential or contingent claim to the extent then feasible and the Indemnified
      Party has reasonable grounds to believe that such a claim or demand may be
      made.

     

    9.    Employment
      Agreements.  At the Closing, the Buyer will enter into Employment
      Agreements with the parties named on Schedule 9, substantially

      contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
      fact
      required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make such
      representations, warranties or other material not misleading.  No
      event has occurred and nothing material has come to the attention of the Company
      that would indicate that any of such information (together with any written
      updates thereof furnished by the Company) is not true and correct in all
      material respects as of the date hereof.  There are no facts known to
      the Company that currently or may in the future have a material adverse effect

      herewith, other than economic conditions affecting the industry of the Company
      generally.

      of Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding
      of the parties hereto with respect to the transactions contemplated herein

      those matters.

     

    10.4    Amendment,
      Parties in Interest, Assignment, Etc.  This Agreement may be
      amended, modified or supplemented only by a written instrument duly executed
      by
      each of the parties hereto.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and
      inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective heirs, legal
      representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the parties
      hereto.  No party hereto shall assign this Agreement or any right,
      benefit or obligation hereunder, except that Buyer may assign its rights and
      obligations hereunder provided that it remains obligated to fulfill its
      obligations hereunder.

      the plural include the singular, the singular the plural, the part the whole,
