The following sets forth the agreement for the engagement of Trilogy Capital
Partners, Inc. ("TRILOGY") by Sense Holdings, Inc. ("SEHO" or the "COMPANY"):
TERM AND Twelve months, commencing as of the date set forth above
TERMINATION (the "INITIAL TERM"), and terminable thereafter by either
party upon 30 days' prior written notice. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, either party may terminate this Agreement by
written notice to the other party if such other party
materially breaches or defaults in the performance of its
obligations or agreements under this Agreement or the
Warrants and such breach or default is not cured or
corrected within 30 days of written notice of such breach.
OBJECTIVE The development and implementation of a proactive marketing
program designed to increase the investor awareness of SEHO
in the investment community and generate a significant
increase in liquidity and market capitalization.
THE PROGRAM Trilogy will structure and implement a marketing program
designed to create extensive financial market and investor
awareness for SEHO to drive long-term shareholder support.
The core drivers of the program will be to create
institutional and retail buying in the Company's stock
through a proactive sales and marketing program emphasizing
technology-driven communications and leveraging SEHO's image
to attract additional long-term investors and to create
additional acquisition and business development
opportunities. As share price is affected by various
factors, Trilogy can give no assurance that the marketing
program will result in an increase in SEHO's stock price.
Trilogy understands that during any period in which the
Company is in "registration" for a public offering of
securities under the Securities Act of 1933, and during the
distribution of such securities, the Company's investor
relations and marketing efforts will be severely limited.
However, it will be the responsibility of the Company (with
the advice of its securities counsel) to determine what
investor relations and financial marketing efforts are
permissible and non-permissible during such periods, and
Trilogy will follow the direction of the Company and its
securities counsel.
RESPONSIBILITIES Trilogy will structure and implement the program described
above in accordance with a marketing plan provided to SEHO.
Trilogy will work in conjunction with the Company's
management, securities counsel, investment bankers, auditors
and marketing director, and under supervision of executive
management. Trilogy will designate a principal account
representative to SEHO responsible for this engagement.
The content is as follows:
o Campaign Planning, Development and Execution
o Press Announcements: drafting, approval and
distribution
o Database Development and Management
o Image Analysis: recommendations and
implementation
o Messaging: institutional and retail
o Online presentations: drafting and
production responsibilities
o Website Overhaul - installation and
maintenance of auto IR program
o Email messaging: targets: Retail and
Institutional/Other databases
o Media including Interactives and PowerPoints
o Direct Mail: shareholder, media, SEHO

Trilogy will not publish or publicly release any press
release or other public communication or document referring
to the Company ("IR DOCUMENTS") regarding the Company that
has not been approved in writing by the Company. The Company
assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of
all IR Documents and the compliance of such IR Documents
