and

SeraNova,  in reliance  on  Consultant's  representations,  is willing to engage

and conditions set forth herein;

NOW THEREFORE,  in consideration of the obligations  herein made and undertaken,
the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1.  SCOPE OF SERVICES

1.1   Consultant shall provide consulting services (the "Services") as set forth
      in the Intelligroup, Inc. Integrated Sales and Marketing Program for NewCo
      Proposal Version 2.4 dated October 12, 1999 (the "Proposal") and submitted
      by  Consultant  to SeraNova.  Consultant  shall  render such  services and
      deliver the required reports and other  deliverables  ("Deliverables")  in
      accordance  with the timetable and  milestones  set forth in Exhibit A and
      the Proposal. In the event Consultant anticipates at any time that it will
      not reach  one or more  milestones  or  complete  one or more  assignments
      within the prescribed  timetable,  Consultant shall  immediately so inform
      SeraNova by written notice, submit proposed revisions to the timetable and
      milestones   that  reflect   Consultant's   best  estimates  of  what  can
      realistically  be  achieved,  and  continue  to work  under  the  original
      timetable and milestones until otherwise directed by SeraNova.  Consultant
      shall also prepare and submit such further  reports of its performance and
      its progress as set forth in the  Proposal and as SeraNova may  reasonably
      request from time to time.

1.2   Consultant  shall provide and make available to SeraNova such resources as
      shall be necessary to perform the Services  called for by this  Agreement.
      Such resources  shall include the key employees (Key  employees)  named by
      the  parties and listed in Exhibit B, as amended in writing by the parties
      from  time to  time.  If any  such  Key  Employee  leaves  the  employ  of
      Consultant  during  the  term  of this  Agreement  for  any  reason  or is
      unavailable  to  continue  work  at  the  specified  level  of  commitment
      (full-time,  X number of  hours/week,  etc.)  called  for  herein,  and if
      substitute  individuals  acceptable  to  SeraNova  are  not  available  to
      continue the work within 5 business days, SeraNova shall have the right to
      terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof.

1.3   SeraNova  shall,  within 10 business  days of receipt of each  Deliverable
      submitted to SeraNova,  advise  Consultant  of  SeraNova's  acceptance  or
      rejection of such Deliverable.  Any rejection shall specify the nature and
      scope of the  deficiencies in such  Deliverable.  Consultant  shall,  upon
      receipt of such rejection,  act diligently,  but in no event later than 10
      business days to correct such deficiencies.

1.4   All work shall be performed in a workmanlike  and  professional  manner by
      employees of Consultant having a level of skill and experience in the area
      commensurate  with the  requirements of the scope of

<PAGE>

      work to be  performed.  Consultant shall  make sure its  employees at  all
      times observe security and safety policies of SeraNova while on SeraNova's
      site.

1.5   SeraNova  and   Consultant   shall  develop   appropriate   administrative
      procedures to apply to Consultant's personnel. SeraNova shall periodically
      prepare an evaluation of the performance of Consultant's personnel.

1.6   SeraNova may interview the Consultant's  personnel  assigned to SeraNova's
      work.  Consultant shall have the right, at any time, to request removal of
      any  employee(s) of Consultant  whom SeraNova deems to be  unsatisfactory.
      Upon such  request,  Consultant  shall use its best  efforts  to  promptly
      replace such employee(s) with substitute  employee(s)  having  appropriate
      skills and training within two business days.

1.7   Anything  herein  to the  contrary  notwithstanding,  the  parties  hereby
      acknowledge  and agree that  SeraNova  shall have no right to control  the
      manner,  means, or method by which Consultant performs the Services called
      for by this Agreement.  Rather,  SeraNova shall be entitled only to direct
      Consultant  with  respect to the  elements of Services to be  performed by
      Consultant and the results to be derived by SeraNova, to inform Consultant
      as to where and when such Services  shall be performed,  and to review and
      assess the  performance  of such  Services by  Consultant  for the limited
      purposes of assuring that such Services have been performed and confirming
      that such results were satisfactory.

SECTION 2.  TERM OF AGREEMENT

2.1   This Agreement  shall commence on the Effective  Date, and unless modified
      by mutual  agreement of the parties or terminated  earlier pursuant to the

      insurance  contributions  on behalf of  Consultant;  and  obtain  workers'
      compensation insurance on behalf of Consultant or its personnel.

      this Agreement,  including any modifications,  enhancements, or derivative
      works thereof, shall remain or become the property of Consultant.

                     SHARED RISK/SHARED REWARD COMPENSATION
                     --------------------------------------

Mueller/Shields  will  receive  additional  compensation  based  on  the  actual
quarterly  revenues  generated in the United States by SeraNova according to the
schedule below.

The  quarterly  revenue  goals  (generated  in the United  States) on which this
compensation will be based:

      Q1 2000           $12,070,000
      Q2 2000           $15,964,000
      Q3 2000           $19,345,000
      Q4 2000           $23,821,000

The compensation that Mueller/Shields will receive for each quarter is:

o  If the actual quarterly revenue is less than 80% of the goal of that quarter,
   Mueller/Shields will receive no compensation for that quarter.

o  The  compensation  for the  quarter  will be 3.1% of the  actual  incremental
   revenue over 80% of the quarterly revenue goal.

o  If the actual revenue achieved is over 100%,  Mueller/Shields will receive an
   additional  5% of the actual  incremental  revenue over 100% of the quarterly
   revenue goal.

o  The compensation will not exceed $150,000 for each quarter.

Examples of how the compensation would be calculated are included in the
following table

           ----------------------------------------------------------
               Q1 2000           $12,000,000           $73,000
           ----------------------------------------------------------
               Q2 2000           $16,000,000          $101,000
           ----------------------------------------------------------
               Q3 2000           $20,000,000          $150,000
           ----------------------------------------------------------
               Q4 2000           $24,000,000          $150,000
           ----------------------------------------------------------

The calculated  compensation  will be paid within the 30 days after a quarter is
completed. Example, the Q1 2000 payment would be due on April 30, 2000.
