close of escrow.  Buyer agrees that shares in the publically
traded NDFC entity shall be issued as follows:

21.  Failure to Accomplish Spin-Off. Should Buyer, for any
reason, fail to obtain permission for NDFC to be a publically
traded company and "spin-off" the entity as described in the
previous paragraph, then, at the option of Sellers, Seller may
require eConnect to immediately transfer shares of NDFC as
follows:

25% retained eConnect;

25% to R. Scott Hatfield;

20% to Sellers individually, on the basis of one share for
every five shares they each currently hold in NDFC;

10% to the NDFC treasury;

20% to a NDFC employee stock incentive plan to be formed by NDFC.

22.  Letter of Intent Non-binding Except as Otherwise Specified.
This letter of intent is intended as an outline of material
business terms to serve as a basis for the preparation of a
purchase agreement for review and approval by Buyer and Sellers.
Except as expressly stated in this Paragraph 22, this Letter of
Intent shall not constitute a formal binding agreement and
neither party is obligated to execute the purchase agreement.  It
is intended that all legal rights or obligations between the
parties who are executing this Letter of Intent shall come into
existence only when a definitive agreement is executed and
delivered by those parties.  Notwithstanding the preceding
provisions of this Paragraph 22, however, Paragraph 15, dealing
with attorney's fees and costs, Paragraph 16, restricting
Seller's right to enter into any agreements or conduct
negotiations with other parties, and Paragraph 17, providing for
a non-refundable deposit, shall be legally binding and
enforceable by the Parties.

If the terms of this letter of intent are acceptable to Sellers,
please execute the enclosed counterpart of this Letter of Intent,
without addition or deletion, and deliver same to Sellers on or
before June 2, 2000.  Failure to deliver the fully executed
Letter of Intent by that date will render the provisions of this
Letter of Intent inoperative and of no further force and effect,
except as noted.

Very truly yours,
