EXHIBIT 10.2

                            AMENDMENT AND SUPPLEMENT

         This letter, dated August 31, 2001, shall serve as an amendment and
supplement to the agreement, dated as of August 1, 2001 by and among BlueStone
Capital Corp. ("BlueStone") and HealthStar Corp., on the one hand, and Shochet
Securities, Inc. ("Shochet") and Shochet Holding Corp. ("Shochet Holding"), on
the other hand ("Agreement"). Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Agreement.

         By their execution of this letter, the undersigned parties agree as
follows:

        1.      At Closing, BlueStone shall not be obligated to accept any
Account listed on Schedule A hereto unless all amounts debited against or owed
on such Account have been eliminated prior to Closing through payment by the
account holder or write off by Shochet (i.e., an assumption of liability by
Shochet to BNY Clearing Services LLC ("BNY")). With respect to any amounts
written down by Shochet, Shochet shall retain the right to seek payment of such
amounts from the applicable account holder. Shochet shall indemnify and hold
harmless BlueStone for any such debit balance in the event BNY seeks to recover
same from BlueStone.

        2.      In addition to any other persons hired by BlueStone under
Section 3.1 of the Agreement, at Closing, BlueStone shall offer employment to
the persons set forth on Schedule B hereto ("Scheduled Persons"). Each such
Scheduled Person shall be employed at will by BlueStone. In the event that any
such Scheduled Person is terminated on or prior to October 15, 2001, Shochet
shall make severance payments to such Scheduled Person in accordance with its
currently existing severance policies.

        3.      Immediately following the Closing, Shochet Holding and Shochet
shall have the right ("Occupation Right") to occupy the 395 square feet of space
currently occupied by the current accounting operations of Shochet at 433 Plaza
Real, Suite 235, Boca Raton, Florida ("Space"). The Occupation Right shall be
for a term of three months and then on a month-to-month basis thereafter
terminable upon 30 days prior written notice. Shochet Holding shall pay
BlueStone a monthly occupation fee of $825 for each month the Space is occupied
by Shochet Holding and/or Shochet, payable in advance on the first day of each
month. Shochet Holding and Shochet acknowledge that they shall have only those
rights to the Space that are held by BlueStone and which may be legally afforded
by BlueStone to Shochet Holding and Shochet Securities. BlueStone makes no
representations to its rights to permit Shochet Holding or Shochet to occupy the
Space.

        4.      Shochet Holding shall be entitled to retain all ownership rights
with respect to the equipment listed on Schedule C hereto ("Shochet Holding
Equipment"), which equipment is currently located in the Space. At such time as

<Page>

Shochet Holding and Shochet vacate the Space, such parties shall be entitled to
retain physical possession of the Shochet Holding Equipment and shall promptly
remove the Shochet Holding Equipment from the Space.

        5.      Section 2.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety
to provide as follows:

                "2.1. At the Closing, Shochet will transfer all of its right,
                title and interest in the Accounts. All customer and
                operational files, including customer account agreements,
                including, without limitation, arbitration agreements, option
                agreements and margin agreements, relating to the accounts,
                shall be retained by Shochet; provided, however, that
                BlueStone shall be entitled to access to any and all such
                files for inspection and/or copying (including bulk copying)
                during regular business hours upon reasonable notice to
                Shochet. Shochet shall not destroy or dispose of any such
                files without the prior written consent of BlueStone. In the
                event that BlueStone requires access to or copies of any such
                files in connection with an audit by any regulatory authority,
                Shochet shall accommodate BlueStone in order to enable it to
                comply with such audit, without material interference with
                Shochet's operations. Shochet will cause BNY Clearing Services
                LLC to effect an electronic, negative transfer of the Accounts
                to BlueStone on a tape-to-tape basis."

        6.      The parties shall cooperate following Closing to calculate
accurate and equitable allocations of all amounts payable with respect to the
transferred assets, such as rents and utilities, and shall promptly remit to the
others the monies reflected in such allocations.

        7.      Shochet has not obtained any of the Landlord Documents defined
in Section 5 and required under Section 25 of the Agreement, except for the Loan
Documents relating to the office space set forth on Schedule D hereto.
Therefore, notwithstanding Section 5.1 of the Agreement, with respect to the
Shochet Leases for the properties where Shochet Persons operate or conduct
retail or institutional brokerage business for which Landlord Documents have not
yet been obtained, as of the Closing, Shochet shall not assign to BlueStone, and
BlueStone shall not assume the obligations of Shochet under, the Shochet Leases;
provided, however, that Shochet agrees to permit BlueStone to use the properties
under such Shochet Leases and BlueStone agrees to pay the monthly rental
payments provided for under the Shochet Leases directly to the lessor for as
long as BlueStone occupies such property in accordance with Section 5.1 of the
Agreement. BlueStone will send confirmation to Shochet of each payment sent by
BlueStone to the lessor within five (5) business days of each such payment. If
and when Shochet obtains the Landlord Documents for the remaining Shochet
Leases, then such Shochet Lease or Shochet Leases shall, if requested by
BlueStone, be assigned and assumed by BlueStone.

                                       2

        8.      Section 5.4 of the Agreement is hereby deleted. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at the Closing, BlueStone shall pay to Shochet an amount equal to
the security deposits held by the landlords of the properties set forth on
Schedule D in the amount set forth on Schedule D. In addition, in the event
Shochet obtains all of the Landlord Documents relating to any of the other
Shochet Leases after the Closing and BlueStone elects to occupy such property,
BlueStone shall remit to Shochet an amount equal to the security deposit for
such property.

        9.      Notwithstanding Section 5.2 of the Agreement, with respect to
the Shochet Equipment Leases for the equipment located at Shochet's offices,
Shochet shall not assign to BlueStone, and BlueStone shall not assume the
obligations of Shochet under, the Shochet Equipment Leases; provided, however,
that Shochet agrees to permit BlueStone to use the equipment under the Shochet
Equipment Leases and BlueStone agrees to pay the monthly rental payments
provided for under the Shochet Equipment Leases directly to the lessor of the
equipment for the duration of the present terms of each of the Shochet Equipment
Leases. BlueStone will send confirmation to Shochet of each payment sent by
BlueStone to the equipment lessor within five (5) business days of each such
payment.

        10.     Shochet and Shochet Holding, as applicable, shall deliver to
BlueStone, within 10 days of the Closing, all forms to be submitted to Network
Solutions, completed in all respects with respect to information to be provided
by Shochet and/or Shochet Holding, as necessary to cause the transfer of the
domain name "Shochet.com." Shochet shall also cooperate and assist BlueStone in
obtaining on a timely basis copies of all of Shochet's intellectual property
files relating to the intellectual property being transferred under the terms of
the Agreement from James & Franklin LLP, Shochet's intellectual property counsel
of record.

        11.     Except as amended or supplement hereby, the provisions of the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

                         INTERCOMPANY SERVICES AGREEMENT

         Intercompany Services Agreement ("Agreement"), dated as of August 1,
2001, by and among Firebrand Financial Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("FFGI"), Shochet Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Shochet Holding"), and
Shochet Securities, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of
Shochet Holding ("Shochet Securities" and together with Shochet Holding, the
"Shochet Parties").

         WHEREAS, Shochet Holding and Shochet Securities have entered into an
agreement, dated as of August 1, 2001, with BlueStone Capital Corp.
("BlueStone") and HealthStar Corp. pursuant to which Shochet Securities will
sell and transfer to BlueStone certain of Shochet Securities' brokerage
accounts, registered representatives and certain other tangible and intangible
assets ("Bluestone Transaction").

         WHEREAS, in connection with the negotiation and consummation of the
BlueStone Transaction, FFGI has assisted and will continue to assist the Shochet
Parties by making available to them the human, financial, and administrative
resources (collectively, the "FFGI Resources").

         WHEREAS, it is desired by the parties that, following consummation of
the BlueStone Transaction, FFGI continue to provide the Shochet Parties with
access to the FFGI Resources and also assist the Shochet Parties in performing
certain administrative functions in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises contained
herein, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

         1.       Services by FFGI. As reasonably requested by the Shochet
Parties, FFGI will provide the following services to Shochet Holding and/or
Shochet Securities, as applicable:

                  (i)      FFGI will assist the Shochet Parties in the
                           consummation of the BlueStone Transaction
                           ("Transaction Consummation Services");

                  (ii)     FFGI will assist Shochet Securities in the subsequent
                           wind-down of its operations for a period not to
                           exceed three (3) months ("Wind-down Period") from the
                           date of consummation of the BlueStone Transaction
                           ("Wind-down Services");

                  (iii)    FFGI will provide office space and other
                           administrative resources to each of the Shochet
                           Parties ("Office Space and Support Services"); and

                  (iv)     FFGI will provide Shochet Holding with access to the
                           FFGI Resources and additional administrative services

<Page>

                           in order to assist Shochet Holding in its continuing
                           obligations as a public company, such as its SEC
                           reporting requirements ("Reporting and Related
                           Services").

The services required to be provided pursuant to this Agreement may be provided
by FFGI or any of its affiliates, as determined by FFGI.

         2.       Fees and Reimbursement. The Shochet Parties will pay to FFGI
(i) upon consummation of the BlueStone Transaction, a fee of $75,000 for the
Transaction Consummation Services, (ii) beginning on the date of consummation of
the BlueStone Transaction and through the Wind-down Period, a monthly fee of
$20,000 for the Wind-down Services and (iii) after the Wind-down Period, a
monthly fee in an amount to be agreed upon by the parties for all other services
to be rendered by FFGI to either of the Shochet Parties. FFGI shall be entitled
to receive 100% reimbursement for any and all expenses it incurs in connection
with the rendering of these services. Notwithstanding, the foregoing FFGI shall
not be obligated to advance funds for the costs or expenses of any of the
Shochet Parties' obligations.

         3.        Third-Party Services for the Shochet Parties. As reasonably
requested by the Shochet Parties, using commercially reasonable efforts, FFGI
will arrange for independent third-parties to provide certain of the services
referenced in section 1 above to the Shochet Parties. Third-party services may
include, but not be limited to, suppliers of goods and services, bank services,
clearing services, warehouse charges for centralized records storage, delivery
charges, and tax preparation and payment. The costs that are incurred by FFGI to
third-party suppliers of services or products on behalf of the Shochet Parties
will be reimbursed promptly (at actual cost) by the Shochet Parties or, if
directed by FFGI, will be paid directly to the third-party suppliers. FFGI will
submit to the Shochet Parties all bills or other supporting documentation
relating to third-party suppliers. To the extent third-party services are
incurred for the benefit of all affiliates of FFGI, these costs will be
reimbursed by the Shochet Parties on an allocated basis, provided that the
allocation will be applied consistently among all the affiliates based on the
use of the services supplied by the third-party.

         4.        Standard of Care. FFGI will provide the services described
herein during the term of this Agreement in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth herein. FFGI will perform its responsibilities hereunder in
a diligent, careful and vigilant manner. The services are to be of a scope and
quality not less than those generally performed by the FFGI employees for the
benefit of FFGI. FFGI will make available to the Shochet Parties the full
benefit of the judgment, experience and advice of its employees performing
services for the Shochet Parties.

        5.         Personnel.  In performance of the services hereunder, FFGI
may use its personnel or the personnel of its affiliates as may be necessary to
perform its obligations required by this Agreement at its expense. The cost of
the services performed by such personnel, however, shall be reimbursed by the
Shochet Parties in accordance with Section 2 hereof.

        6.         Term.  The term of this Agreement will commence on the date
hereof and will end on the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement
unless earlier terminated as provided below.

                   The Shochet Parties shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement immediately: (i) if FFGI is in material breach of any of its
obligations hereunder, which breach is not cured within 20 days of receipt of
written notice from either of the Shochet Parties of the breach, (ii) if FFGI is
the subject of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or any voluntary proceeding
relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or composition for the
benefit of creditors, if such petition or proceeding is not dismissed within 60
days of filing, or becomes the subject of any involuntary petition in bankruptcy
or any involuntary proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation,
or composition for the benefit of creditors, if such petition or proceeding is
not dismissed within 60 days of filing, (iii) if the business of FFGI is
liquidated or otherwise terminated for insolvency or any other basis, or (iv) if
FFGI becomes insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they mature or makes an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

                   FFGI will have the right to terminate this Agreement
immediately: (i) if either Shochet Holding or Shochet Securities is in material
breach of any of its obligations hereunder, which breach is not cured within 20
days of receipt of written notice from FFGI of the breach, (ii) if either of
Shochet Holding or Shochet Securities is the subject of a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy or any voluntary proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership,
liquidation, or composition for the benefit of creditors, if such petition or
proceeding is not dismissed within 60 days of filing, or becomes the subject of
any involuntary petition in bankruptcy or any involuntary proceeding relating to
insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or composition for the benefit of
creditors, if such petition or proceeding is not dismissed within 60 days of
filing, (iii) if the business of either Shochet Holding or Shochet Securities is
liquidated or otherwise terminated for insolvency or any other basis, or (iv) if
either of Shochet Holding or Shochet Securities becomes insolvent or unable to
pay its debts as they mature or makes an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors.

                   Either FFGI or either of the Shochet Parties may terminate
this Agreement upon not less than 60 days notice to the other, which notice will
state the date on which termination will be effective, provided notice of
termination given by either of the Shochet Parties shall be approved by a
majority of its directors who are not employees, directors or officers of FFGI.

                   No exercise by a party of its right to terminate this
Agreement will limit its remedies by reason of the other party's default, the
party's right to exercise any other rights under this section or any of that
party's other rights.

        7.         Directors and Officers Duties. Nothing in this Agreement will
limit or restrict the right of any of the FFGI directors, officers or employees
to engage in any other business or devote their time and attention in part to

                                       3

<Page>

the management or other aspects of any other business, whether of a similar
nature, or to limit or restrict the right of FFGI to engage in any other
business or to render services of any kind to any corporation, firm, individual,
trust or association.

        8.        Independent Contractors. FFGI is an independent contractor and
when its employees act under the terms of this Agreement, they will be deemed at
all times to be under the supervision and responsibility of Shochet; and no
person employed by FFGI and acting under the terms of this Agreement will be
deemed to be acting as agent or employee of the other for any purpose
whatsoever.

        9.        Other Agreements. From time to time, either or both of the
Shochet Parties may find it necessary or desirable to enter into agreements
covering services of the type contemplated by this Agreement to be provided by
persons other than FFGI. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to limit in
any way the right of the Shochet Parties to acquire services from others or to
enter into other agreements.

        10.       No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will operate as a waiver
thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

        11.       Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will inure to the
benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and
administrators of the parties hereto, provided however, that neither party may
assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of the other
party hereto, except that FFGI may assign its rights and obligations hereunder
to any affiliate of FFGI other than Shochet Holding or Shochet Securities
without obtaining the consent of Shochet Holding. Any assignment will not
relieve FFGI of its rights or obligations hereunder.

        12.       Amendments. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to
any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement,
and any consent to any departure from the terms of any provisions to this
Agreement will be made in writing, signed by the parties hereto, and will be
effective only (a) in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for
which it is made or given; and (b) if approved by a majority of the directors of
each of the Shochet Parties who are not affiliated with FFGI.

        13.       Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided, all notices,
demands, statements and communications required hereunder will be in writing and
