1. APPOINTMENT:
The Client hereby authorizes Finder, on a nonexclusive basis, to identify
investors, underwriters, joint ventures, lenders and/or guarantors (collectively
"Investors") interested in providing financing for the Client, on terms
acceptable to the Client and the Investors.
It is understood that the Finder is acting as a finder only and is not a
licensed securities or real estate broker/dealer that shall have no authority to
enter into any commitments on the Client's behalf, or to negotiate the terms of
financing, or to perform any act which would require the Finder to become
licensed as a securities or real estate broker/dealer.
2. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES:
Finder acknowledges that he is not an Officer, Director or Agent of the Client,
he is not and will not be responsible for any management decisions on behalf of
the Client. The Client and the Finder agree that the relationship between the
parties shall be that of an independent contractor.
3. COMPENSATION:
Any Financing, pursuant to said introduction, that is consummated after the date
of execution of this Agreement or within 12 months after termination of this
Agreement, Client agrees to pay the Finder a five percent (5%) fee of the gross
amount of all funds obtained, payable directly to Finder immediately upon
completion of any said funding. Upon the completion and full compensation of
said Agreement, Client agrees any future engagement with a Finder introduced
funding source, shall be deemed as an introduction stemming from said engagement
of Finder and thus, is eligible to a like compensation.
"Financing", as used herein, shall mean all amounts furnished to or for the use
of the Client with investors/financiers directed or introduced by, or through
the efforts of the Finder after the date of this Agreement, whether by
investment in equity of the Client, loans, loan commitments, guarantees of

acknowledges that it is obligated to fully compensate Finder in accordance with
the provisions of Paragraph 3 herein; pending Client does strategic business
with said introduced entity/entities notwithstanding specific terms and
conditions that may vary from those enumerated herein. The parties hereto
expressly acknowledge that in the event that the Client breaches this Agreement,
the damages resulting from such a breach would be extremely difficult to
determine in that the lost potential future income and business for the Finder
and for his services in this matter would be lost and such damages could be
detrimental to the Finder. Therefore, the parties hereto expressly agree that in
the event of the Client's breach of this Agreement, the Client shall be
obligated to pay Finder double the compensation as defined in Paragraph 3
hereof, as liquidated damages.
5. CONFIDENTIALITY:
Finder acknowledges that he may have access to confidential information
regarding the Client and its business. Finder agrees that he will not, during or
subsequent to the term of this Agreement, divulge, furnish, or make accessible

information or plans of the Client with respect to the Client or its business.

hold the Finder harmless from any and all liability, expenses or claims arising
from the disclosure or use of such information.

None of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived except in
writing by the party which is entitled to the benefits thereof. No supplement,
modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in
writing by Finder and Client. No waiver of any of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision
(whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

execution specified below.

Client which can reasonably be completed within the thirty day (30) period.
