EXHIBIT 10.13

                              CONSULTING AGREEMENT

This Consulting Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into as of April 1, 2003
(the "Effective Date") by and between Nurescell Inc. (the "Company"), Triton
Private Equities Fund, L.P. (the "Investor") and Larry Shatsoff, dba Business
Analysis Group, LLC (the "Consultant").

                                    RECITALS

1 The Company and the Investor desire to obtain certain services of Consultant
for the Company, and Consultant desires to provide such services, in each case
on the following terms and conditions.

Accordingly, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

                                    AGREEMENT

1. CONSULTING PERIOD.

         (a) INITIAL TERM. The Company hereby retains Consultant to provide, and
         Consultant hereby agrees to render to the Company, those services
         described in Section 2 for the period (the "Consulting Period")
         commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the earlier of (i) one
         (1) year thereafter (the "Term Date") as, and to the extent, extended
         under Section 1(b) and (ii) the date the Consulting Period is
         terminated in accordance with Section 4. The Company shall pay
         Consultant the compensation to which he is entitled under Section 3(a)
         through the end of the Consulting Period and, thereafter, the Company's
         obligations hereunder shall end.

         (b) EXTENSION. Subject to Section 4, the Consulting Period may be
         extended at the option of the Company for additional six (6) month
         periods by providing written notice to Consultant thirty (30) days
         prior to the Term Date or the end of any extension period. Termination
         of the Consulting Period under this Section 1(b), instead of extending
         the Agreement, may be with or without cause.

2. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.

         (a) Consultant hereby agrees to provide and perform for the Company
         those services set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and such other
         services as may be reasonably requested by the Company. Consultant
         shall devote his best efforts to the performance of such services.

         (b) Consultant shall use his best efforts to comply with all policies
         and practices of the Company of which Consultant is given notice.

         (c) As an independent contractor, Contractor shall not look to the
         Company as Con-tractor's employer, nor as a partner or principal. Thus,
         Contractor understands that he is not eligible for Company benefits and
         voluntarily accepts this arrangement. Nothing in this Agreement shall
         be construed to be inconsistent with this relationship. Contractor may
         apply his time according to his own judgement and discretion, but shall
         devote sufficient time and attention to enable him to perform his
         obligations herein.

<PAGE>

3. COMPENSATION, BENEFITS AND EXPENSES.

         (d) COMPENSATION. In full payment for all of the services to be
         rendered hereunder, Consultant shall be paid Three Thousand Dollars
         ($3,000.00) per calendar month, payable on the 1st business day of each
         month (pro rated for partial months). Consultant shall also be entitled
         to receive shares of Company common stock in an amount to be determined
         by mutual agreement between the Company, Consultant and the Investor.
         If it appears that the logged hours spent by Consultant related to
         fulfilling his contractual duties seems insufficient to support the
         monthly fee, both parties may negotiate a lower monthly fee.

         (e) NO OTHER BENEFITS. Other than the compensation specified in this
         Section 3, Consultant shall not be entitled to any direct or indirect
         compensation or other benefits for services performed hereunder.

         (f) EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse Consultant for reasonable
         travel and other business expenses incurred in the performance of his
         duties in accordance with the Company's general policies, as they may
         be amended from time to time during the course of this Agreement.
         Consultant shall provide all receipts and backup material for expenses
         submitted, as requested by the Company. Consultant shall notify the
         Investor prior to incurring any expenditures related to overnight
         travel or the purchase of any equipment for the Company.

         (g) DAILY LOG. Consultant shall keep a daily log which accurately
         reflects hours spent on Company related duties.

4. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

         (a) At any time and without liability, either the Company, the Investor
         or Consultant may terminate this Agreement and the Consulting Period
         for any reason, with or without cause, by giving thirty (30) days
         advance written notice to the other parties. If Consultant gives notice
         of termination pursuant to this Section 4(a), the Company and the
         Investor shall have the option, in their complete discretion, to
         thereafter terminate Consultant immediately without the need for any
         notice period. Upon termination, the Company shall pay Consultant the
         compensation to which he is entitled pursuant to Section 3(a) through
         the end of the Consulting Period, and thereafter all obligations of the
         Company and the Investor shall terminate.

         (b) Consultant hereby acknowledges and agrees that all (i) property,
         including, without limitation, all books, records, reports, notes,
         contracts, lists and other documents or materials, or copies thereof,
         (ii) Proprietary Information (as defined below) and (iii) equipment, in
         each case of either the Company or the Investor, that is furnished to
         or prepared by Consultant in the course of or incident to his services
         to the Company, shall remain the property of the Company or the
         Investor, as the case may be, and shall be promptly returned to the
         owner thereof upon termination of the Consulting Period. Following
         termination, Consultant will not retain any written or other tangible
         material containing any Proprietary Information. Consultant's
         obligations under this Section shall survive termination of the
         Consulting Period and this Agreement.

         rightfully in Consultant's possession or part of his general knowledge
         prior to the Consulting Period or (iii) the information is disclosed to

         indirectly, from the Company.

         (i) GENERAL RESTRICTION ON USE. Consultant agrees to hold all
         Proprietary Information in strict confidence and trust for the sole
         benefit of the Company and not to, directly or indirectly, disclose,
         use, copy, publish, summarize, or remove from the Company's premises
         any Proprietary Information (or remove from the premises any other
         property of the Company), except (i) during the Consulting Period to
         the extent necessary to carry out Consultant's responsibilities under

         agrees that for a period of one (1) year after termination of the
         Consulting Period, he shall not, for himself or any third party,

         any business of any kind in which it is engaged, including, without
         limitation, the solicitation of or interference with any of its
         customers or (ii) employ, solicit for employment, or recommend for
         employment any person employed by the Company during the Consulting
         Period.

involuntarily, or by operation of law, any rights or obligations under this
Agreement, nor shall Consultant's rights be subject to encumbrance or the claims
of creditors. Any purported assignment, transfer, or delegation shall be null
and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, legal

RIGHTS AGENCY AGREEMENT

RIGHTS AGENCY AGREEMENT dated as of ________, 2003 (this “Agreement”) between Genesys S.A., a société anonyme organized under the laws of France (the “Company”), The Bank of New York, a New York banking corporation (the “ADS Rights Agent).

WHEREAS, the Company is offering up to ______________ ordinary shares in the form of ordinary shares or American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) in a rights offering (the “Rights Offer”) pursuant to statutory preferential rights under French law to existing holders of its  ordinary shares (the “Share Rights Offer”) and ADSs (the “ADS Rights Offer”);

WHEREAS, in the ADS Rights Offer, the Company will
  grant to existing holders of ADSs issued under the Deposit Agreement dated as
  of February 12, 2001 (the “Deposit Agreement”), among the Company,
  The Bank of New York, as Depositary (the “Depositary”), and all owners
  and beneficial owners from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder, that are
  registered on the books of the Depositary as of the record date (the “Holders”),
  rights (the “ADS Rights”) to purchase additional ADSs (“New ADSs”).
  Each ADS represents one-half of one share, nominal value €1 per share
  (each, a “Share”), of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to appoint the ADS Rights Agent as its agent for administration of the ADS Rights Offer and the ADS Rights Agent is willing to accept that appointment.

WHEREAS, the Company has registered the Shares to
  which the ADS Rights relate under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
  will make the ADS Rights Offer to each of the Holders by means of a prospectus
  prepared by the Company (the “Prospectus”), which will be accompanied
  by a certificate evidencing the ADS Rights that includes a subscription form
  and a notice to Holders in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
  “Subscription Form”) containing instructions with respect to the number
  of New ADSs that may be purchased, the method for subscribing for New ADSs and
  the delivery of payment for the New ADSs.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements contained in this Agreement, the Company and the ADS Rights Agent hereby agree as follows:

 

1

 
ARTICLE I.

  

  APPOINTMENT OF THE ADS RIGHTS AGENT

The Company hereby appoints The Bank of New York as the ADS Rights Agent of the Company in connection with the ADS Rights Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and The Bank of New York hereby accepts such appointment  upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

ARTICLE II.

  

  TERMS OF ADS RIGHTS OFFER

2.1.     The subscription
  period will commence on or about July 10, 2003 (the actual starting date is
  called the “Commencement Date”) and will end at 5:00 p.m., New York
  time on July 18, 2003 unless the Company extends it (the actual ending date
  and time is referred to as the “Expiration Date”). The Commencement
  Date through the Expiration Date will constitute the subscription period (the
  “Subscription Period”). The Company shall notify the ADS Rights Agent
  of the Commencement Date if different from the date set forth above (and in
  the absence of such notice the Rights Agent may assume that the Commencement
  Date is such date) and of any extension of the Expiration Date. 

2.2.     Holders holding
  ADSs as of 5:00 p.m., New York time, on July 9, 2003 (the “Record Date”)
  may purchase New ADSs pursuant to the ADS Rights Offer at a subscription price
  that will be equal to the U.S. dollar equivalent of Euro 1.10 per New ADS (the
  “Subscription Price”). The parties understand that the dollar equivalent
  of the Subscription Price set forth in the Prospectus is an estimate and that
  actual U.S. dollar equivalent will be determined when the ADS Rights Agent converts
  the purchase money into Euro pursuant to Article VI hereof. The parties also
  understand that Holders will be required to deposit with the ADS Rights Agent
  $___ (the “Deposit Amount”) for each New ADS for which they are subscribing
  in respect of their ADS Rights or as to which they are placing an order to purchase
  in excess of their entitlement in respect of their ADS Rights. The Deposit Amount
  is based on the estimated Subscription Price set forth in the Prospectus plus
  five percent of that amount, which is an allowance intended to cover currency
  exchange rate fluctuations and to pay the Depositary’s fee for issuance
  of New ADSs and expenses of the Depositary and the ADS Rights Agent. In lieu
  of delivering fractional ADS Rights, the ADS Rights Agent will aggregate the
  share rights underlying such fractional entitlements and, to the extent practicable,
  will arrange for the sale of such fractional share rights. The net proceeds
  of such sale, if any, will be distributed to the Holders entitled thereto. 

2.3.     The ADS Rights are not transferable by Holders.

 

2

 
ARTICLE III.

  

  DELIVERY OF RIGHTS OFFER MATERIAL

3.1.     On or before the Commencement Date, (a) the Company will deliver to the ADS Rights Agent sufficient copies of the Prospectus, and (b) the ADS Rights Agent shall have printed for its use sufficient copies of (i) the Subscription Form, (ii) Substitute Form  W-9 and (iii) Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number of Substitute Form W-9 (the “Guidelines”).

3.2.     Unless otherwise instructed in writing by the Company, on or as soon as practicable after the Record Date, the ADS Rights Agent shall send by first class mail or, if so instructed by the Company, by overnight courier, to each Holder as of the Record Date: (i) a  Prospectus, (ii) a Subscription Form, (iii) a Substitute Form W-9, (iv) the Guidelines and (v) a return envelope addressed to the ADS Rights Agent for use by such Holder (such material, collectively, the “Rights Offer Material”).

3.3.     In the event that the Rights Offer Material is returned to the ADS Rights Agent for any reason and a proper delivery thereof cannot be effected to a Holder, the ADS Rights Agent shall hold such Rights Offer Material and the related Holder’s right to purchase  New ADSs under the ADS Rights Offer will be treated as unexercised. The ADS Rights Agent shall supply the Company with such information as the Company may request with respect to any Rights Offer Material that cannot be delivered to a Holder.

3.4.     In the event that, prior to the Expiration Date, any Holder notifies the ADS Rights Agent that the Rights Offer Material to which such Holder is entitled has not been delivered, or has been lost, stolen or destroyed, the ADS Rights Agent will furnish to such  Holder a copy of the Rights Offer Material. The Company agrees to supply the ADS Rights Agent with sufficient copies of the Prospectus for such purposes.

ARTICLE IV.

  

  ACCEPTANCE OF SUBSCRIPTIONS

4.1.     The ADS Rights Agent
  is hereby authorized and directed to receive subscriptions for New ADSs on behalf
  of the Company throughout the Subscription Period. Holders shall make payment
  to the ADS Rights Agent of the Deposit Amount in U.S. dollars. Such payment
  must be received by the ADS Rights Agent no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time,
  on the Expiration Date. Any funds that the ADS Rights Agent receives during
  the Subscription Period from Holders in respect of payments for New ADSs shall
  be deposited in an account at the ADS Rights Agent that the ADS Rights Agent
  designates solely for such purpose (the “Deposit Account”) and such
  funds shall remain in the Deposit Account until they are distributed in accordance
  with Section 6.2.

 

3

As promptly as practicable after the ADS Rights Agent receives each Subscription Form, the ADS Rights Agent shall determine whether the Holder sending such Subscription Form has properly completed and executed such form and has submitted the correct  Deposit Amount for the New ADSs. If such form is not properly completed, is unexecuted or if such Holder did not send the correct Deposit Amount, then the ADS Rights Agent will send a notice to such Holder requesting such Holder to correct its Subscription Form or submit the  proper Deposit Amount, as the case may be. If such Holder does not correct its Subscription Form or submit the proper Deposit Amount, as the case may be, by the Expiration Date, such Holder’s right to purchase New ADSs in the ADS Rights Offer shall be deemed to be unexercised  and the ADS Rights Agent shall promptly refund the amount deposited to such Holder. The ADS Rights Agent will require that payment of the Deposit Amount be in the form of a certified or official bank check, money order or wire transfer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without further authorization from the Company, except where otherwise specified or as otherwise notified in writing by the Company prior to the Expiration Date, the following Subscription Forms shall be deemed to be properly  completed:

(a)     any subscription with respect to which a Holder has failed to execute a Subscription Form in the manner provided by the terms thereof, provided that (1) the Holder has indicated on such Subscription Form or by written communication, the manner in which the  Holder wishes to subscribe and (2) proper payment has been made by such Holder;

(b)     any subscription by an individual (and not by a corporation, partnership or fiduciary) which is accompanied by a check drawn by an individual (and not by a corporation, partnership or fiduciary) other than the Holder, provided that (1) the Subscription Form  submitted therewith has been duly executed by the Holder, (2) the Holder is the Holder to which such Subscription Form relates, (3) the check tendered in payment of such subscription is drawn for the proper amount and to the order of The Bank of New York and is otherwise in order,  and (4) there is no evidence actually known to the ADS Rights Agent indicating that such check was delivered to the Holder by the drawer thereof for any purpose other than the payment of the accompanying subscription;

(c)     any subscription by a custodian on behalf of a minor which is accompanied by a check drawn by an individual (and not by a corporation, partnership or fiduciary) other than the Holder, if the provisos set forth in clause (b) above are satisfied; or

(d)     any subscription by an individual (and not by a corporation, partnership or fiduciary) which is accompanied by a check drawn by a corporation, partnership or fiduciary other than the Holder, if the provisos set forth in clause (b) above are satisfied.

4.2.     The ADS Rights Agent is hereby authorized to accept subscriptions for New ADSs on behalf of the Company (i) on the Expiration Date, (ii) after determining the total number of New ADSs that an Holder is entitled to purchase in the ADS Rights Offer,  pursuant to Article VI hereof, and (iii) upon the proper completion and execution of the Subscription Form, in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof. 

 

4

4.3.     The ADS Rights Agent is authorized to waive proof of authority to sign (including the right to waive signatures of co-fiduciaries and proof of appointment or authority of any fiduciary or other person acting in a representative capacity) in connection with any  subscription with respect to which:

(a)     the New ADSs to which the Subscription Form relates are registered in the name of an executor, administrator, trustee, custodian for a minor or other fiduciary and has been executed by such Holder provided that the New ADSs purchased are to be issued in the  name of such Holder;

(b)     the New ADSs to which the Subscription Form relates are registered in the name of a corporation and the Subscription Form has been executed by an officer of such corporation, provided that the New ADSs purchased are to be issued in the name of such  corporation;

(c)     the Subscription Form has been executed by a bank, trust company or broker as agent for the Holder to which such Subscription Form relates, provided that the New ADSs purchased are to be issued in the name of such Holder; or

(d)     the New ADSs to which such Subscription Form relates are registered in the name of a decedent and the Subscription Form has been executed by a person who purports to act as the executor or administrator of such decedent’s estate, provided that (i) the New  ADSs are to be issued in the name of such person as executor or administrator of such decedent’s estate, (ii) the check tendered in payment of such subscription is drawn for the proper amount and to the order of The Bank Of New York and is otherwise in order, and (iii) there is no  evidence actually known to the ADS Rights Agent indicating that such person is not the duly authorized representative which such person purports to be.

4.4.     In all cases other
  than those described in Sections 4.3(a) through (d) above, the ADS Rights Agent
  will be required to obtain all necessary proof of authority to sign in connection
  with subscriptions for New ADSs; provided, however, that in the
  event that such proof of authority has not been received on or prior to the
  Expiration Date, the ADS Rights Agent may obtain advice from the Company as
  to whether any such subscriptions may be accepted and the ADS Rights Agent shall
  have no liability whatsoever in the event it acts in good faith in accordance
  with such advice nor shall the ADS Rights Agent be required to accept subscriptions
  for New ADSs in the absence of such proof in the event it does not receive such
  advice from the Company prior to the Expiration Date and shall have no liability
  whatsoever for any such action.

ARTICLE V.

5.1.     The ADS Rights Agent will advise the Company by facsimile transmission (a) on the Commencement Date as to the total number of Holders and the total number of ADSs outstanding as of the Record Date; and (b) on each business day during the  Subscription Period as to:

 

5

	 	 	          (ii)     the aggregate amount of funds received by the ADS Rights Agent in payment of such subscriptions; and

ARTICLE VI.

  

  PAYMENTS; SHARE SUBSCRIPTION; REFUNDS

6.1.     As promptly as practicable
  after delivery of the Subscription Report in accordance with Section 5.2, the
  ADS Rights Agent, as agent for the subscribing Holders, (i) shall transfer from
  the Deposit Account to the Depositary the fee required under the Deposit Agreement
  for execution and delivery of American Depositary Receipts evidencing all the
  New ADSs and any applicable expenses of the Depositary, and (ii) shall purchase,
  for settlement on or before the expiration date of the Share Rights Offer (which
  is expected to be 5:00pm, Paris time, on July 23, 2003), an amount of euros
  equal to the subscription price for Shares times the number of Shares to be
  represented by New ADSs for which Holders subscribed (the “Euro Subscription
  Amount”). If the Deposit Amount paid by any subscribing Holder to the ADS
  Rights Agent exceeds the amount required to pay the Holder’s share of the
  Euro Subscription Amount, the

 

6

Depositary’s fees and expenses
  and the expenses of the currency conversion, the ADS Rights Agent shall, at
  the time the ADS Rights Agent delivers the New ADSs, remit the excess in U.S.
  dollars (without interest) to the subscribing Holder. If the Deposit Amount
  paid by any subscribing Holder to the ADS Rights Agent is less than the amount
  required to pay Holder’s share of the Euro Subscription Amount, the Depositary’s
  fees and expenses and the expenses of the currency conversion, the ADS Rights
  Agent shall pay the amount of such deficiency on behalf of such Holder. The
  Holder will then be required to pay, upon notice by the ADS Rights Agent to
  such Holder, the amount of such deficiency promptly (including interest and
  expenses) to the ADS Rights Agent, and the ADS Rights Agent need not deliver
  any New ADSs subscribed for by such Holder prior to the receipt by the ADS Rights
  Agent of such payment. If payment of the amount of any deficiency is not received
  from such Holder by the ADS Rights Agent by the later of (i) the fifth business
  day after receipt of the ordinary shares underlying the New ADSs by the Depositary’s
  custodian, as described in Section 7.1 below, and (ii) the fifth business day
  after the ADS Rights Agent gives notice of such deficiency, the ADS Rights Agent
  may sell the New ADSs subscribed for by such Holder at a public or private sale,
  at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper, and the ADS
  Rights Agent may allocate the proceeds of such sales in an amount sufficient
  to cover such deficiency (including interest and expenses). In such event, the
  ADS Rights Agent will then send promptly any remaining New ADSs to such Holder
  together with a check in the amount of excess proceeds, if any, from such sale;
  provided, however, that, if the amount of such excess proceeds
  realized upon the sale of such subscribing Holder’s ADSs is less than $5.00,
  such excess proceeds need not be distributed. The Company shall indemnify the
  ADS Rights Agent, with interest, for any unreimbursed deficiency in subscription
  money, including fees and expenses.

6.2.     The ADS Rights Agent
  shall pay to the Company the Euro Subscription Amount and shall instruct the
  Depositary to subscribe for the total number of Shares to be represented by
  New ADSs for which Holders have subscribed prior to the expiration date of the
  Share Rights Offer. The payment shall be made in same day funds by wire transfer
  in euro to the bank account specified by the Company on Exhibit B hereto.

6.3.     The parties understand that, pursuant to the Deposit Agreement and in accordance with the Subscription Report delivered pursuant to Section 5.2, the Depositary will use reasonable efforts to sell rights to purchase Shares to which it is entitled as the holder of  Deposited Securities (as defined in the Deposit Agreement) but which the ADS Rights Agent does not request it to exercise on behalf of subscribing Holders, and the ADS Rights Agent shall request that the Depositary do so as promptly as practicable after the Expiration Date and remit  the proceeds of such sale to the Holders with respect to which such share rights were sold as promptly as practicable.

ARTICLE VII.

  

  ISSUANCE OF ADRs

7.1.     On or about August

  “New Shares”) with Société Générale, as
  Custodian under the Deposit Agreement, and will request that the Depositary
  confirm such deposit to the ADS Rights Agent. 

 

7

7.2.     When the New Shares to be represented by the New ADSs have been deposited, the ADS Rights Agent shall forward to the Depositary the registration instructions contained in the Subscription Forms delivered by subscribing Holders and shall instruct the  Depositary to send New ADSs issuable in respect of those Shares registered in accordance with those instructions to the ADS Rights Agent and the ADS Rights Agent shall deliver those New ADSs in accordance with those instructions, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1.
